LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE.
The Now CASTLE single Tax BIN.


To the Editor Of the Evening Journal
SIR: Ia the New Castle letter In Fri
day s paper your correspondent gives the
two objections made to the Single Tax
bill at Dover AS TO the first one | have
nothing 10 say, for local option was de-
clared unconstitutional by the courts,
That, of course, killed the bill
But rs to the second one | would like
to say think 1t is unsound The idea
that the theory of the single tax IL In
conflict with the general law requiring a
mems property to be assessed at Its
general value" Is absurd
What Is mans property. All the
tangible wealth he Is possessed Of Is it
not? Doee the city to day assess this?
Mol Il only assesses land and the
buildings on it-tnat 10 real estate Now
II the city can exempt a persons
tangible wealth other than real estate it
can certainly go further and exempt
buildings from taxation.
As soon as this question Is looked into
Il will be seen how foolish an idea 1t is to
tax man on tho Investment OF wealth.
ia that form which Of all forms of
investment most benefits the community
that Is IN buildings He can invest his
WEEtL1 III any hbhEL why NNA1 hAAa sAlA bAAC
city leviea no tax on him, but as soon as
his investment is such as to improve onr
city, why we fine him. Citizens Of New
Castle what think you Of this2 Is it
a sensible proceeding? II not then see
that your voice reaches your representa-
tive Ia no uncertain way on behalf of the
new bill to exempt buildings from taxa
tion.
In the same issue Of your paper your
Dover correspondent tells us that cur
esteemed fellow citizen Julian Janvier
went TO Dover 10 tell the Legislators
there that the people of New Castle were
not favorable to the late Single Tax
bill
II strikes our people as a most wonder
full thing that MIR Janvier would spend
the somewhat large sum demanded for a
ticket to Dover to tell the Legislators
that the people were not favorable to a
bill which they (the people, will to vote
on Such useless extravaganza Is very
foreign TO Mr.. Jsnvier's nature and II
leaves them TO guess that he was repre-
senting. not the people. but himself,
and that be desired the bill killed in the
House because he was afraid that IL IL
came before the people they would vote
IN favor Of it In short, Mr. Janvier's
actions bslied his words Yours truly,
HAROLD SUDRLL.

The devotion which young men and
young women prominent Ia society have
shown for bicycle riding has added g
pleasant feature to the fashionable daily
life Young women who we're enthusi
astic few years ago for horseback
riding have transferred their affections
to the bicycle, writes a Washington
correspondent Even the widow OF
banker, whose big mansion uptown over
flows with grandchildren, has learned to
ride the wheel
Those who began riding last Summer at
Newport and other fashionable resorts
are now 50 much At home on their cycles
thai their morning exercise Is taken on
the most frequented streets, but for the
beginners the quiet neighborhood Of the
White Lot and Washington monument
has been selected for the early struggles
The circle around the White Lot is
gay during the morning hours With those
who mos frequently meet Rt dtawing
room events The Russian minister and
his daughter, Princess Cantacuz 7ne, are
good riders and are more frequently seen
on their wheels han ia carriages
Mrs Henry Nav. Miss Brice Miss
Cameron and the Misses Wallsch are all
devoted to the sport, aud the example Ii

ADJUSTMENTS.

The board convened by Secretary Her
bert to consider the subject Of dispensing
with wood in the construction Of the
naval ships now bui ding, and also to tiud
some suitable substitute for wood In places
where It Is impracticable to use metal,
and OF which board Commander Bradford
Is senior member. is making fair progress
Since the naval action fought off the
mouth Of the Yalu river between the
Chinese and Japanese fleets in which
several ships were disabled and thrown
out Of action by serious tires on board. the
subject has received much attention A.
home and abroad. The German Admiralty
has crnvened board to find some proper
substitute for wood, ana In the meantime
the use Of wood has ceased altogether,
even the furniture being made Of iron,
and cork used where non conductor Is
absolutely necessary The English are
casting about for some substitute for
wood, and the French have for a long
time used minimum Of wood
Owing to the conducting properties Of
iron and steel, the living quarters, Il not
sheathed With soma non conductor. be-
come intensely cold in Winter and very
hot in Summer. Where heat Is applied,
owing to the difference Of temperature
on the opposite ides Of the metsl plating,
mnch condensation of moisture ocourn
These difficulties cause rheumatism and
pulmonary diseases, Clothing kept in
metal drawers and lockers becomes ruined
from moisture, aud the drawers must be
lined with something In the nature Of
wool or thick felt
Briefly, q substitute for wood should
have the following properties; It should
be light. or no heavier than wood; non
conducting aud non-combnstible, and
when struck by shot should not fly into
spllnters. In wooden ships frequently
as many persons are wounded by splint-
ers as BY shot
A solution Of the problem, In the
opinion Of the board, seems TO be in the
following direction Take something in
the nature Of cheap wood or vegetable
FIBER and Zoe aawdust, treat them chem
ically witch some insoluble fire proof
substance. not too heavy; then press
and roll into boards more or less dense,
according to the use for which the
material is desired. Such a material
win be non-iniammRble al through, will
not splinter, will not be heavy, and will
be a non.conductoT. Possibly this artid
cial board can be strengthened by inclos
ing within IL tough fine wire netting
II sawdust or other fine csllulose
material, after being rendered non
inhammAble, can, BY mixing with other
material not too heavy, or, Il heavy in
small quantities, be applied to metal in
plastic state so as to harden into q
compact mass impervious TO water then
1t viii be OF great value In other words
if q light. non conducting, non-infam
msble, insolubie, cement can be discov-
cred, 1t may be Of great use in sbiI
