| Bishop Mallalieu of the Methodist
church is a good and a wise man, but,
| like other good and wise men, he has
his careless moments. In one of these
| he said that it is foolish and silly for
grown men to engage in the game Of
golf This remark indicates that the
good and the wise Bishop doesn't play
golf and that he hasn't really consid-
cred the cases Of those who do. If he
had he would have discovered that
many grown men as good and as wise
as he is play golf, and that they do not
| find it or make it either foolish or silly
Some of these men do, it is true, wear
raiment that is of wondrous shape and
hue, and they talk the golf language,
which, it must be admitted sounds
queer to those who do not talk it. But
there is method in their antics. When
they are playing golf they are out in
the open air, surrounded by the sweet
and healing influences of Mother Ma
ture. They take moderate and helpful
exercise by walking and by occasionally
hitting, or missing the ball they drive
and pursue. While walking and hit
ting, or missing, their tired minds are
diverted and their energies renewed.
They find that golf means to them
mild pleasure and improved health and
capacity to work, This doesn't mean
that golf can't be played by grown men
in a foolish and silly way 1t can be,
just as preaching can be done by grown
men in a foolish and silly way But
played as it ought to be and often is,
it is very useful to grown men whose
heads it helps to clear and whose hearts
it helps to cheer. a.

1--WE know with whom we are dealing
in such matters. of course, but will
say in general that railroad bridge
builders as class are unusually de-
pendable men. Knowing how often job
berry and trlckery are exposed in the
building of county and city bridges, this
fact has occasioned comment in many
railroad circles. But the observa ton
cannot be questioned
I'm determining just how long
bridge can stand with safety we do not
have many facts to draw upon. AS
have said, the examination of the old
bridge at Burlington threw no light up
on the question. In the main superb
cial examinations are all that can be
made, giving to safety the benefit Of
any doubt. In the past most bzridges
have been outgrown instead of being
worn out, but whether this can be con-
tinued in the future la to be questioned
1t seems to be fact that we are reach
ing the limit in locomotive building,
however. So long as the tracks remain
at the present standard the steaning
capacity of boilers cannot be increased
by widening them. while as to height,
the modern 130-toh locomotive seems
70 he close to the limit. Chicago Tri-

MlLLfONS FOk DEFENCE.

! While New Haven has been and Is
well protected by the splendid guns
| that frown on the sea from Lighthouse
Point, it is not at all certain that some
case. There seems to be serious doubt
whether the mortars which have been
set up for the protection of coast cities
are calculated to be very useful in an
emergency. There are now three hun
bred twelve inch mortars established
at various coast cities, each of which
cost $4,000. When the Endicott board
mapped out the scheme for the protec-
| ton of our long line of coast it pro-
vided for eight hundred mortars. This
! scheme was formally adopted by con-
gress and the War department and has
been closely followed for the past tif-
| teen years. All the money expended
in the construction of guns since 1885
mendations of the Endicott board. In
recent years there has been growing
impression among artillerists that the
value of mortars has been over-esti-
mated. There has been no chance to
test their efficiency and the war de-
partment has been going ahead manu-
featuring and installing them merely
because the policy of the Endicott
board demanded 1t, The antimortar
talk was so strong when the last forti-
fication bill was being prepared in
congress that it was decided for the
first time since 1885 to make no provi-
sion for further construction during
the coming year. That was the first
effective blow 1t is now to be follow
ed up by a trial that it is believed will
permanently relegate the weapons to
the obsolete class. The Board of Ord
nance and Fertilization, of which Gen
eral Miles is president, is to assemble
shortly at Portland, Maine, for the pur-
pose of conducting a series of expert
mentS with the mortar batteries at
that point. There are sixteen mortars
of the twelve-ineh caliber there, sunk
in pits, four in each depression Fixed |
targets will be employed and the NOR
tars will be fired to develop their ac-
curacy This will be the first practical |
demonstration of this kind ever held in
the United States, Two hundred shots
are 20 be fired and, as each mortar
shell and ammunition costs about two
hundred dollars, the experiments will |
be rather costly.
If the mortars are declared practical
ly useless the loss will be large, but |
millions for defence is fine saying.

instance of the hereditary transmission
! of an acquired characteristic has ever
been demonstrated either in the animal
or the vegetable kingdom. If this be a
fact man can only transmit to his son
the hereditary faint with which he was
born, and if man having no Unborn
tendency to excess yet acquires drunk
en- habits, his progeny are in no more
danger than are those of his neighbor
Of environment on youth. 1t is not de-
MED that drunken parents who become
thus mentally and physically weak are
liable to have children who are degen-
erate-weak in body and feeble in mind,
such persons, in fact, as under unpropi-
tious circumstances tend to become
paupers, criminals, epileptics and
drunkards. The point which is denied
is that the drunkard's child has the
specialized tendency to become inebri-
ate rather than vicious in some other
direction.
OF course science hasn't said it's last
word in this matter yet, and its next
word may be more in accordance with
notions which now seem to be not well
founded. But until there is a change

FATHER UNS ETH ING,

At the rate things are going the tenn
perance folks will have to work hard
to keep up with the procession. 1t has
lately been demonstrated that, though
alcohol may not be food it is helpful
to the human frame when properly
used. 1t has also been shown that there
may be worse things for soldiers than
canteens. And now comes the British
Society for the Study of Inebriety with
a report which is rather unsettling to
those who have supposed that children
of drunkards inherit tendency to be-
come drunkards The committee which
studied the matter for the Society con-
sisted of five physicians, two surgeons
in civil life, an army surgeon, five gen
eral practitioners" and a professor of
bacteriology. Nine Of the fourteen now
report their inability to discover any
evidence that acquired characters of
any kind are heritable." The London
Lancet has the following to say: The
last word of science, as declared by
teachers of physiology, biology and bot
any, is very definite assertion that no

Seattle has secured the ownership of
a tract of one hundred acres, with a
view to conducting municipal ceme-
terry, in imitation of project success
fully carried out in Cleveland. There
a level, finely situated tract of land has

burial plots are sold without regard to
location at the uniform price of seven
ty-f1ve cents per square foot. This
price includes the actual maintenance
Of the plot at the expense of the city
In perpetuity. The maintenance in
cludes grass seed, sowing, moving, and
a general caretaking Flowers and
shrubs, when required, are of course,
charged additionally. The purpose is
to defeat speculation in land for burial
places, and to insure perpetual care of
the graves. In Cleveland the enter
prise is self-supporting, although the
charges are very low.

Elephant Trimming by Machinery.

Dangling ct the end of a huge derrick,
the elephant is placed in any position de-
sired. Once in this position, his educa-
ton is commenced from that point. The
new method of training is an experiment
as yet, but its success is assured, at least
SO far as young elephants are concerned.
Recently q circus received q consign-
ment of a dozen or more ~pachyderms
from Ceylon. Sumatra and India. Their
ages ranged from eight to twelve years
and their weight between 1900 pounds
and a ton.
Coming fresh from the jungles Of their
native country, the young elephants pos
sessed anything but q docile nature.
Hence their training was accomplished
only with difficulty.
The beginner was taken into a ring in
the circus training barn and heavy har-
ness attached to a strong crane or der
rick placed around the beasts body. The
instructor then gave the command,
"Stand on head and forefeet."
This would be Greek, of course, to the
pupil, but the meaning of the command
gradually dawns upon the animals in
stinct after being lifted into the air and
tilted forward on his head and trunk sew
eral times.
