DON'T KNOW HOW TO PLAN.

New York's Miserable Tenements the Re-
suit of Ignorance of Scientific Planning.
The greatest evil which ever befell
New York city was the division of the
blocks into lots of twenty-five by one
hundred feet, says Scfibner. So true
is this that no other disaster can for
moment be compared with it. Fires,
pestilence and financial troubles are as
nothing in comparison, for from this
division has arisen the New York sys-
tenn of tenement houses, the worst
curse which ever afflicted any great
community. The fact that so much of
the land is held in such parcels is our
misfortune, but the obstacle is not insu-
perable, as shown by our office build
ings. The difficulty has arisen and per-
sistently fourishes owing entirely to
our lack of knowledge of the art of
scientific planning. For who would
waste money in erecting unnecessary
walls, halls, ETC., if he knew how to OBJ
tain the same amount of rentable space
much better lighted without them?
By the present system the ground is
incumbed, the light INSTRUCTED, and
the structure rendered unhealthy and
unfit to live in, and all this is accom-

The Heroic Tsasques and Their Many Des-
perate Wars with Invaders.
But these people of Spain, and yet
not Spaniards, who are they? Models OF
ancient manners, untainted by time, SO
marked, so separate-as distinct in
racial characteristics from their near
est neighbors as from the most remote
so rooted to this soil, how shall we
account for them? Velasco, their own
historian, gravely:traces their descentd i-
rectly from Tubal-Cain, says the Cosmo-
politan. Humboldt calls them Celt-Ibe-
rians. Theory OF theory, each one dis
proving the last with equal learning,
has been advanced to account for this
phenomenon. Nothing now seems
more probable than that they are
remnant of the troglodytes of the age
of stone, the same with the men whose
bones are found in the caverns of the
Alps and Pyrenees, beside those of the
huge animals they hunted. In this
case their unwritten history dates from
twenty centuries before the Christian
era.
There are confused Basque traditions
of The coming of the Phenicians to
their mo curtains, and the earliest Ro-
man writers have painted in glowing
colors the noble bearing, patriarchal
customs and wise old laws the Ph@ni-
clans found there. They discovered the
gold and silver mines and vanished
in hni, or
Wars and dissensions followed; then
silence again till Caesar came. His
lieutenant Crassus reduced Spain to a
Roman province, but Caesar says: "a
few petty people higher up in the
mountains did not make their submits
sion and sent hostages" Roman
poets expand the picture and describe
the Iberians, as they named the
Basques, as objects of terror to all the
world, whom neither hunger, heat nor
cold could conquer, who only gloried
in labors and perils.
Pushed by the Romans, they retreat
ed to their fortified towns; pressed by
siege, they withdrew to the highest
rocks, watched the confagration of the
towns, and threw themselves, shouting,
from the craigs, to be dashed in pieces
rather than surrender Mothers
drowned their sons rather than have
them become slaves. The story of their
steady resistance is nearly incredible.
Taken prisoners, they preferred cruel
fixion to subsection, and died singing a
paean of joy. Again and again, after
thinking them conquered, the Roman
projects encountered fresh outbreaks,
till at last the Caesars were wise enough
to abandon the effort and secure them
as allies.
AS allies, the Basques proved, from
the first, as faithful as they had before
been stubborn. More than once their
unconquerable courage turned the for
tune of battles. They went to Sicily
with Hannibal, leaving traces of them
selves in Italy, in names of towns such
as Urbino and Orvieto. Later they
joined steadily for two centuries in the
strife against the Visipoths. At
Rencesvalles, in IT'S, the Franks touched
them, and the flash that followed still
lights the pass and the cliffs, though
ten centuries have passed since false
Ganelon betrayed Roland and the furi-
GUS Basques fell on CharIemagne's real
guard and crushed them with rocks in
the defile of bones between Ilgatson
and Altabiscar.

A VALUABLE RELIC.

tion Secured Washington Coach.
In connection with the restoration of
.,.o o,t. .v..o,. -i.v...o, ~ili.I. mus ouoiIe-
ly rebuilt by Michigan during the past
year, there is an interesting story of
the search for one of Washington's old
coaches to replace in the old quarters.
Though a search was instituted year
ago in New York and Philadelphia for
the lost coach, says the New York Post,
there were no traces of it up to the
date of the completion of the coach
house in May. At that time Mr.. Dodge,
the superintendent at Mount Vernon,
ascertained that Washington coach
had been sold from an auction room in
Philadelphia to Forepaugh's Circus
company for fifty dollars, and also that
the Pennsylvania commissioners had
tried unsuccessfully to get it from the
company last summer for the Column
bian exposition. Mr.. Dodge immedi-
ately correspondent with Forepaugh's,
and Barnum 6 Bailey's circus COM
panies, and also with Mr.. Brownfeld,
chairman of the Pennsylvania commits
sioners. Mr.. Brownfeld used the large
opportunities at his command in get
ting on the track of the coach, and in
June letter was received from him to
the effect that the coach had been
traced to the wreck of circus train
Gin the west" and was probably a
ruin. But the end was not yet. Sus-
pecting that he might have been mis-
led, Mr.. Brownfield renewed the hunt,
which ultimately resulted in finding
the coach safely stored away. Mr..
Dodge at once opened negotiations for
its purchase, but further proceedings
were arrested by Mr.. Brownfield's re-
serving for himself the privilege of pre-
senting the coach to the Mount Vernon
| Ladies' association.

An Ingenious Rain Producer.

A rainmaker in India has an ap-
paratus, consisting of a rocket capable
of rising to the height of mile, con-
tanning reservoir of ether. In its
descent it opens parachute, which
causes it to come down slowly. The
ether is thrown out in fine spray, and
its absorption of heat is said to lower
the temperature about it sufficiently
to condense the vapor and produce a
limited shower.

WRITER'S OF MORBID BOOKS.
Do They Realize What an Opportunity fol
Good They Miss?

Good They Miss?
Iwonder, asks Gentlewoman writer,
is it the authors or the puonc who are
to blame for the immense amount of
morbid literature that foods the mar
ket.
The supply is generally Influenced by
the demand, it IS true, but authors for
get the tremendous opportunity that is
theirs of swaying the public taste for
wholesome novels.
If they recognized more truthfully
their power, and instead of pandering
to style which, though it may please
the vulgar, cannot but make the judi
cious grieve, held the mirror up to ma
ture in her purest, not her lowest,
sense, there is no doubt that they
would swiftly revolutionize the present
ephemeral craving for what one writer
has termed '''highly seasoned litera-
ture."
Let us have fiction that while it in
terests does not disgust, and lay aside
the hideous notion that realism must OF
force go hand in hand with evil, and an
abuse of all the old faiths we have
hitherto cherished and held dear.
It is the miserable fashion to write as
if truth, and honor, and purity and be,
lief were nonexistent. 1t is lie
These qualities do exist; our men are
as loval and true and faithful as they
always have been, and our women are
not one whit less pure now that they
are treated as at least the equalof man
and not with the semi-barbaric eastern
! idea that they are inferior animals.

stlek to the Truth.

There is a good deal Of advertif
ing which amounts to downrigl
lying. Men have no regard whf
ever for the truthfulness of VIII
they say, provided it shall accon
plish the purpose for which the
advertise. For instance: f. i
Roesler, immigration agent {,
the Texas & Pacific railway cor
pany, says:
"Now, it is a good deal hott,
and dryer in southern California
Arizona, Colorado and New
Mexico, in midsummer, than it is
in Texas"
No man who has been In Texas
and New Mexico could make that
statement, having the slightest
regard for his veracity. There may
be some places in New Mexico,
which are dryer than some places
in Texas, Just as there are some
places IN Texas which are dryer
than certain places in New Mexico.
But there is probably not a place
in New Mexico which is as hot in
midsummer as the most favored
place in Texas; while in 900 parts
of the Territory in midsummer,
the climate is a delicious luxury,
as compared with any other part
of the United States, and as a
summer garden compared to a
bake oven, when brought into
comparison with any part of Texas.
Texas is great country and has
great advantages, but it is silly as
well as false to attempt to make it
appear that the Texas summer
climate can compare with that Of
New Mexico.

That which we love in others
most is the love that we find for
ourselves.
In love, in literature and in art,
the unwholesome it is that attracts
the unhealthy.
The right that man will never
concede to woman is the right to
do wrong.
They that love easily seldom
love long.
A fast man is often a slow hus-
band.
There is nothing so sensitive in
man as his pocket.
Talent is little to a woman, title
is much, tittle-tattle is more.
Men always want to understand
women, women always want to un-
derstand themselves; should you
wish to please both, write about
woman.
There are general rules for
women, but every woman is an ex-
ception.
1t is the vanity of man that
gives power to woman.
The misfortunes of some make
the fortunes of others.
It is the critic that does moth
ing who maintains that his neigh
Dor does nothing well.
When we talk of the world we
always talk of our neighbor.

they love God, but because they
love each other.

A strong sentiment IN favor of
free silver coinage at the ratio Of
l6 70 / cropped out IN the Mich
igan republican convention and
was given expression by a minority
report from the committee on
resolutions. A warm discussion
was had and finally the free SILVER
plank was Rquarely voted down in
favor Of one which the minority
considered as vague and non-com-
initial from any standpoint The
Iowa democrats we're none the less
yague-which is hopeful as against
the free silver idea. They de-
clared for tho restoration Of silver,
but on terms which would make
the two dollars intrinsically equal.

The Broken Hill Proprietary
mine in New South Wales, whose
output of silver for a long time
averaged over 100000 ounces per
week has recently made an extra
ordinary record. For the week
ending June 2 the yield was no
less than 675,9l3 ounces of silver,
1922 tons of lead and 575 tons of
copper. The total value of this
output was equal to I06,773
pounds sterling or about $533, 900.
At time when the chief silver
mines of the world have found
it necessary to restrict their out
put, Australia may well be proud
of such a record. 1t is necessary
to explain, however, that the above
quoted figures owe their magni-
tude to the half yearly cleanup of
accumulated by-products, AMI that
even the more normal recent yields
of over 25O,000 ounces per week
are owing to the removal by the
open-cut system of the low hill
which forms the outcrop of the
great lode. The directors Of the
company have warned the share
holders that such yields will not
be maintained for any length Of
time, and we may add that when
tho easily worked surface ore has
been exhausted the management
will be brought to face the treat
ment Of the large masses Of base
refractory ore which characterize
the deeper workings Of the Broken
Hill mine. The successful work
ing Of this material has thus far
bailled meSallurgical ingenuity, and
the present market price of silver
will prove a bar to the utilization
of ore bodies which are not only
peculiarly refractory, but also Of
very low grade.

farmers have not been deferred by
the low prices of grain this year, for
parties who have arrived from
that province inform US that the
colonists are ploughing up more
land and sowing more wheat than
ever. The colonists have come TO
the conclusion that they can CON-
pete against the world, and in this
they are not far wrong. They can
beat the American farmers easily
out Of the market, and after this
years experience We have no doubt
that the majority of farmers in the
Great Republic will back out of the
competition. We may add that
wheat-growing in the distant dis.
tricts Of the province of Buenos
Ayres has been abandoned by
many farmers, who prefer going
into alfalfa; wheat does not pay
them at such a distance and at
present prices"
