Wadesboro Branch. In an article by II. Anderson Brace, in the American Magazine, the author writes of William James Sldls, the 11-year-old boy phenome non who recently lectured before Har vard professors on the "Four Dimen sional Bodies."' Mr. Bruce, who has known the boy since he was 4, claims that he is quite normal In every re spect and that his gift for mathemat ics was merely the result of educa tional training by his father.- Mr. Bruce quotes as follows the elder Sidis: "The notion that the young child's mind should be allowed to lie fallow is the way Dr. Sidis put it to me, is utterly wrong and, pernicious. The child is essentially a thinking animal. No power on earth can keep him from thinking, from using his mind. From the moment his inquiring mind first taking in the details of his sur roundings he begins the mental proc ess which education is intended to guide and bevelop. He observes, he draws interences from everything he sees and hears, he seeks to give ex pression to his thoughts. "Lieu to himself, however, be Is certain toobserve inaccurately and to make many erroneous inferences. Unless he is taught how to think he is sure to think incorrectly, and" to acquire wrong thought habits, caus ing him to form bad judgments re specting matters not only vital to his own welfare bat also important to the welfare or society. In fact, in order to get the best results, his training in the principles of correct . thinking should begin as soon as, or even be fore, he starts to talk. Ther i. need be no fear of overtaxing his mind. On the contrary, the effect will be to develop and strengthen it, by accus toming him to make habitual use of the latent energy which most people never utilize at all." GIRL BEATEN AND BLINDED.

That this conclusion is erroneous, and that V v;-"-: Hobson's Eczema Ointment will effect a cure is shown by the following unsolicited testimonial of JVf r. Venable Wilson, who for many years was a citizen of Wades boro.

Attacked af ter a Black Hand warning to her mother, Miss Ethel Joneay 360 Mar- J ion street. Brooklyn, is in a serious ! condil ion today at her home, suffer- in? from a blow on the back of her head and half blinded by some fluid which her assailant dashed into her eyes. ,- The attack followed a series of threats which are reported to have: been received by Rev. - Dr. Charles J. Allen, of Beecber Memorial Church, in Brooklyn. , ' ,: Dr. Allen, whose home is next door to that of Miss Jones, and whose church the irdured girl attend ed, notified the police that he cad received several Black Hand threats warning him that unless he ceased preaching against concert and dance halls some of the young women, at tending his church would be ab ducted. The police, It is said, did not take the letters seriously. Yesterday Mrs: Robert Jones is al leged to have received a letter, sur mounted by a skull and crosabones device rudely drawn and a black band, reading as follows: ; "Your dauehter Ethel's life is In danger when you least expect. Be ware!" - ' " The letter was signed with the Ini tials "B. II." Mrs. Jones showed it to Rev. Dr. Allen, who told her not to worry about it. , The daughter, Ethel, accompanied by two friends, went out calling later in the evening. Coming home, Bhe parted from her companions a short distance trom her home. As she hurried in the direction of the house Miss Jones says she was suddenly struck on the back of the bead by a man, who at the same in stant threw a fluid in her eyes which blinded her. Then a handkerchief was knotted around her mouth so that she was nnable to cry out and the blow was repeated. She struggled ' desperately and scratched the man's face. After a moment the assailant, finding it im possible to stun her,' cursed her in Italian, she believes, and ran away. Miss Jones staggered on until she was noticed by a young woman, who, seeing the gag fastened around her. mouth, took the girl . to her home and sept for a doctor, who worked over her until early today. He said that Miss Jones would not lose her ey sight. Some weak solution of acid was used, he thinks. The force of the blows on the young woman's bead was ueaaeneu, ac cording to the physician, by an ar rangement in her hair known as a Wiflfil Thcarr Maker aad Haataraf Hcartaa; Paopla. Chicago News. A hundred years ago there was man named Malthas, and he was the proud possessor of a theory that was built with a special view of scaring the cheerfulness out of mankind. His front name was Robert, and he was a doctor of medicine in England. One day when his digestion was poor and he had been up all night at a te dious case and collections were bad, the poor man began to Bee Indigo blue. While in that state of mind he couldn't think of anything cheerful, so he evolved a theory. that the hu man race was due to make Its last gasp in some of these centuries when none of as is looking for it. His basis of figuring was this: The human race and other races of ani mals increase in geometlcal ratio by multiplication, while food and other things increase only arithmetically by ; simple addition. When Doctor &i althus thought of that he'couldn't sleep a Ink, -.: Now, Malthas' theory looked bo good that Charles Darwin, on the strength of it, his theory of the these- things, or be wouldn't have spoken oMhe rate of increase of pop ulation as something dangerous.

A new poor law of some kind was enacted by the English Parliament on the basis of Malthas' big scare. You see, the Doc was a past master at scaring people? He had the hlgh browbeaded south about as fast as their poor feet would carry them. He went all over the part of Europe that wasn't then full of wars, with a view of confirming his theory, and, of course, he confirmed it. No man ever yet made an Investigation with a definite result in mind without get ting that result. That's .why inves tigations by riders ot hobbles are so valuable and trustworthy. His theory went on to show beyond a shadow of doubt that in a few more generations the world would be so crowded with people that they would jostle each other for standing room in the most isolated spots, while in cit ies the population would be piled upon shelves. His idea was that by this time or a little later say a century or so later the world's food supply wouui cave oecome so small in pro portion to the population that hotels would be run on the lottery system. Then only the holders of the lucky numbers at the bi-weekly drawings would be given the capital prizes in the form of square meals. Most of the time, according to this cheerful person, the inhabitants of earth would be engaged in boring new holes in their belts to buckle them tighter and thus keep down the pangs of banger. In those days the only canal scandals would bo those of the alimentary ca nals, the Panama ditch having be come a trivial matter. But how hard Malthus felt down in his prophecy! He didn't know that that the feature of matrimoney was to tie division instead of multiplica tion. Sioux Falls had not yet been discovered. Neither bad poodles taken the place of babies among the wealthy and influential. Neither bad Teddy bears been invented. These things have played havoc with his geometrical theory. How. could Malthus I fort-see the building .of fiats and apartment houses in whose sacred precincts ba bies are high erimes and misdemean ors? How could he look ahead and see that it was going to cost four times as much to bring up a family of two as it once cost to raise six? Did Malthus ever bay a real piano, a Bet of furs, a party dress, dancing les sons, two kind of skates and other knlcknaro for a young daughter's CbriBtinas, and proportionate luxu rirs for a son, both of whom mast be as well equipped as the children of other fool parents.

Tbe place where It was uncovered was fallow land on Morris stand la Charleston harbor. This Is the story the curator telte: It was in 1864, shortly before tbe evacuation of the crambllag Sumter by the Confederates and during the 1 time when the investlug Federal ships and marines were bending every ef fort to find away to fight through Charleston. A detachment of Feder al marines landed under cover of gun fire on Morris Island.

There was a hot engagement, and In the end the Union force was pushed to Its boats and back to the blockading fleet. They did not have time even to bury their dead.
