Several months ago the Arcturus, deop-sea exploration ship and floating laboratory of William J 'echo, naturalist, weighed anchor in New York harbor for the Sargasso Sea ond the Pacific Ocean in search of strange and unknown denizens of the deep. Upon its return to New York the expedition found at the ocean's bottom 100 miles out from -n,,.,. the mouth of the Hudson the same curious creatures tho ihafa a hum? mh you're soin to Arcturus had brought back in its aquariums and specimen i"' l.o'.'''

GOING BACKWAIUIS? Thoughtful people must be struck and saddened by the current news dealing with crime. For a time the com pelling fact was more increase in the number of criminal nets. Later events are tending' lo show that the character of the deeds of violence is changing' in a manner that can not but startle the balanced mind. In recent crime news there is evidence of a degeneration which must astound. Crime is something more than a simple violation of the 'tin legal code when it descends into such depths. have long prided ourselves upon the fancied difference be tween the people of our country and those of older nations have been given something to think about that is worth while. The criminal brutality demonstrated by proofs of de generacy hitherto foreign to our records cannot be blinked at. Whether we have touched the right causes may bo mutter for doubt. Hut there is not the least question that we are swinging far from our old mental landmarks.' Ia making a brief survey of the differences between the new and the old-fashioned psychology, the discriminating ob server sees much more than a mere difference in the de grading character of the acts of the criminal-minded. lie sees a startling change in mentality everywhere. If among the changes he notes a cold-blooded indifference to old standards of the value of human life, he may set that down as merely incidental, for lie has only to plot out!""" his observations to see that mental operations are different f.mong all men and women ami even children. The American mind is no lunger what it. was when the generation just passing off tlie stage held as its breath of civic life. The old code is gone. .11' we are startled now by the difference we may look for other changes that may develop into pormancies, the reverso of what v:i once a rule of conduct. him smoked like II wan fireproof.
