A Story of West Point

West Point life offers a fascinating
field for the writer of fiction, and some
good stories have been written about
it. One of the most charming. as well
as one of the most original, is offered
under the title "Chevrons," just pub
lished by ]. B. Lippincott Company.
This develops a tender and engaging
romance. and gives vivid pictures Of
cadet life and of the experiences of
those who visit the Academy at the
invitation of the young soldiers. The
authorship of the novel is concealed I'M
der the initials B. H. L., which, it Is
said. stand for one of Philadelphia
debutantes. 1t may be fairly said Of
the story as a first book that it prom
ises much for the future success of the
writer in the delineation of character
and in the conception of romantic sit
uations which pique the interest and
are true to life.

not strike directly upon the legs OF
ankles of the person in the audience
but is gently diffused horizontally pc
meath the seat. so as to make an equa
BILE and practically draftless BODY OF

of the warm air and the breathed air,

occupants of the chairs or pews ana

the suggested outlet is the rear above

The results obtained by this method
of upward ventilation have in many
cases been extraordinary. Thus in the
hall of the Massachusetts Institute OF
Technology the "increment"-or in
crease during the occupation of the
halI-of carbon of di-oxide, the pres
ence of which is an indication of certain
poisonous elements in the air attending
its use by many breathers, sank from
1886 under previous conditions to LIZ.

similar results to the Legislative halls
of the Maine State House, the new
chambers of the Massachusetts and
Rhode Island legislatures, and the
Senate Chamber, the House of Repre-
sentatives. and the Supreme Court in

More typical however, are the re-
suits obtained in several of the large
Boston theatres. In one of these, for
example, near the close of a perform
ance when the seats were well filled
and many persons were standing, the
carbon di-oxide increment has been
found to be less than 1.6 in 10000 parts
of air. Admittedly, the increment is
greater. in the balconies than in the
orchestra floor, due, of course, to the
fact that they intercept air rising from
the floor and do not, except in rare
instances, receive the full benefit of
the flow from the air chamber beneath
the auditorium; but even here the re-
suits are far superior to those obtained
by the common methods of downward
ventilation, where the carbon di-oxide
increment has been found to range
form 10 to As in the same 10000 parts OF
air
In the matter of the increase and
variations of temperature the following
table of the results carefully recorded
in Boston theatre employing upward
ventilation are interesting and typical:

The name of the heroine of ANNE
Scarlett," Mary INLAY Taylor's latest
novel. seems to belong so naturally to
the Puritan times which the story de-
seribes, that it is difficult to imagine
it in a more modern environment.
Nevertheless Miss Taylor has received
a letter from an actual "Anne Scar

presses a lively interest in the book
and naturally the origin of the title.

ed by the author. its temperance in
real life is all the more curious.

WORKING THE ROAD ROLLER.
the railroad is little better than a Quag-
mire. What does this mean to the
planter, farmer and truck gardener
''The load" says a report Of the de-
partment Of agriculture, that one
horse can move on iron rails on q level
road requires a horse and a half ON
level asphalt pavement, 312 horses on
the best Belgian block pavement, 7
horses on cobblestones. 20 horses on
ordinary dirt roads and 40 horses on
sand" These figures are not as signif1-
cant, Of course, for the New York
farmer as for his brethren south and
west, but they are pregnant enough to
make him ponder. They should be dis
played on every signpost In the rural
parts.
General Stone of the United States
roads bureau has compiled some fig
ures bearing on the good roads problem
which are Illuminating and even star
tling. He estimates that It costs the
farmers Of the country every year the
enormous sum Of $946, 100000 to haul
their products to rail and water, a sum
which exceeds the operating expenses
Of all the railroad companies. Two
thirds Of this sum might be saved. he
believes, by constructing good roads.
This is q conclusion that must be prov
ed to the satisfaction of the farmers of
each district. which is not an easy un-
dertaking. since many Of them are 30
poor that present outlay seems to them
of greater moment than prospective
advantage.
A man who Is engaged In struggle
to keep the wolf from the door can
hardly be expected to burden himself
with an increased road tax. Life is
too short and uncertain, he thinks. 1t
has been pointed out with much force
that the farmer complains loudly about
an increase Of a fraction Of q cent
mile by a railroad company, which he
denounces as plundering monopoly,
but he keeps on In bis old imbecile way
Of wearing out his horses and wagons
on execrable roads. General Stone tells
him that II he would have the courage
to face the cost Of reasonably good
roads the farm property Of the country
would appreciate probably $4,000. .0O0,-
600. Here In the north we have seen
the light, but we are not SO far ad-
vAnced In the reform that we can af-
ford to disparage the cotton states.
May the New Orleans convention teach
them the kindergarten principles of
good roadmakingl The more Of such
conventions the better.
1t Is a fortunate fact in the history
Of the good roads movement that 1t is
exceedingly infectious and, when once
started, spreads with great rapidity.
That has been the experience Of Mas
sachusetts, New Jersey and Connecti-
cut, and it is now pretty safe to expect
that other states will not be exceptions
to the rule. A well made and well
kept thoroughfare demonstrates its
value so conclusively that there is no
use in attempting to deny It in the
presence Of any one who has seen the
truth. Thus the number Of advocates
Of road improvement continually multi
plies, and minorities are converted into
maJorities In manner surprising even
to themselves.
