Our Half-Baked Judgments In 1848 the country went wild over the three Fox Bisters, of Hydeville, N. Y. They gave public seances in America and Europe—so-called spirit'rappings and nov ing heavy objects apparently without touching them. The Fox sisters climaxed a wave of spiritualism that surged thru the American people. Now we have a similar wave. Tomena is so intense that the ing two prizes of $2,500 each for “proof.

But what the stranger on the street car had to say about expert opinion set us thinking that he had touched ' a common human weakness—the tendency to set our- ‘selves up as authorities on subjects of which we are as ‘| good as ignorant. f Two men can almost come to blows, discussing the e of nations—altho neither of them knows his sub- 5 per cent.

So with Seattle’s treet car problem, the port site purchase, Coueism, the sion of the Ruhr or the troubles of the farmer. The value of expert testimony seems to be recognized nly when we go to law, get sick or have a delicate piece work to be done. ’ And we carry this tendency from our private lives inte national affairs—for instance, a committee of law- lers in congress is appointed to investigate and decide in few months a subject that experts are unable to master a lifetime. One Eastern city even appointed a horse octor as its expert in a gas-supply row. * * When two people discuss calmly, they are learning, both them.

And They Danced and Danced They're beginning to die now, after 77 to 100 hours “Marathon dancing” and the mysterious craze which, Tike a blight, has been sppeading over the country the ast few weeks may be said to have entered upon its ‘d and final phase. There is nothing new, however, in this strange hysteria. lannes Hecker in his monumental work on the “Danc- ig Disease” of the Middle Ages, tells us how it broke out in Italy and Germany in 1348, the year of the first great plague, when otherwise sane young people took dancing round and-round, claiming they had been bitten by a’ spider or tarantula. The scientific men of the time prescribed rabbit feet amputated in the dark of the moon from well known Weyards, eyes of frogs and ground spider dust and imilar remedies, all without avail. One comely young woman of Orvieto in Italy is said have broken all records by continuing on the floor for days, being sustained during this orgy by strange gods and drinks handed to her by admiring friends a8 she whirled about the dance hall. "After a few of the leading exponents of the new art d died on the floor or been removed to lunatic asylums, disease died down until ,1734, when, during the cele- tion of the festival of St. John at Aix-la-Chapelle, elgium, it broke out in all its old-titne frenzy and finally ound up by several hundred of the dancers dashing brains out against the walls of the church.
