April 21 Specialists on insanity throughout the country are greatly interested in the question of 'speed insanity," a new form of insanity which is believed to have been evolved from the habit of excessively speeding by automobilists. The matter first came to public notice through a suit, in which it was soucht to compel an insurance company to pay the run amount of insurance in the case of a policy holder, who was killed by an acci dent while speeding In his automobile. The Ocean Accident Insurance Company refused to pay a large policy on the death of M. L. Hancock, who was killed in an automobile accident in Los Angeles, Cat., several months ago. on the ground that the company cannot pay a claim on an automobilist, as most of them are mono maniacs on tne question of speeding their machines, and. therefore, the company is not responsible. ' In its answer to the suit, which was i filed, the company asserted that the man ho was killed was practically insane on the question of speed, and that it should not be held liable for deaths resulting from the actions of a person temporarily insane. In the same answer the company asks that if it should be held liable it should be only for half the amount. The company also holds that its liability is lessened if the insured engage in any hazardous employment, and this, it is asserted, covers automobiling. Many psychologists are inclined to share the opinion that it is really a form of insanity which is developed in automobilists ad dicted to speeding. See uhat 10c will buy at Mrs. T ware.

It is a source of considerable gratification to army officer that the war department ha refused to consider any material changes in their uniform. It is realized , ..... .... ...MHw. .. the uniform may be, there are those who will find an opportunity Co suggest changes, all more or less expensive to tne officers, who must furnish their own aooarel. General Chaffee, while chief of staff, held that the uniform was on a practical basis. and his successor, General Bates, agreed with him. There is every reason to ex pect that the new chief of staff. General Ball, will adhere to this view. If any thing is done with the uniform, it will be to eliminate some of the styles of dress which are considered useless but which are used for show purposes only. The only reason that the full dress has been retained is that in public gatherings, where army officers come in contact with repre sentatives of other services, it is desirable to maintain a proper proportion of display. It is considered that the uniform worn for the field by the American army i the most comfortable and best suited which could be devised, and surpasses in those qualities the military apparel of all other countries. Suggestion of change in the uniform continue to be received, but al though they are examined and carefully filed, no further attention is paid to them. The only change of any importance, w.iich has been decided on durins the last few days, is the adoption of a new kind of eggings, recommended for use in the army by the Quartermasrer General. These new leggings are a few inches shorter J than those in use at the present time and are laced in front, instead on the side. It is not expected that any more material change in the uniforms or equipment of the soldiers will be made this year, neither for home use nor for use in the tropics.

Newlin Druo Co. ON CADET iScripps News Asnoclatlon) Washington. D. C, April 21 Secretary Bonaparte is much gratified at the reports which have come from the Naval Acad emy in regard to the . discipline of that institution. He finds that hazing is no longer one of the regular features of that institution. The board of officer which has charge of affairs at the academy, and which served as a sort of grand jury to the court martial of the hazers, has been investigating the situation by means of questions put to various midshipmen. The inquiry has been searching and the young men have given every evidence of candor in their replies. It is reported that hazing has been abolished and the midshipmen have now agreed to recognize the acad emic regulations instead of their own code. Secretary Bonaparte i Inclined to believe that something should be done in behalf of the midshipmen who have been dismissed. In all but one or two cases he feels that this punishment was exes sivs and that the navy hat lost the ser vices of young men who would be of value. In the new regulations which have just been printed, at the Naval Academy, greater consideration i shown the midshipmen, who are placed more upon their own honor and are free from the ironclad restriction which have here tofore marked academic discipline.
