While it is found that the glacial
flow in the region of what is now the
Connecticut valley was directly south
ward (as we know by the glacial
scratches and striae on the upper sur
faces of lodges recently denuded OF
soil, and by trains of boulders), it was
eastward, or at least east by south
east, over the region bordering on
Massachusetts bay. The biologists
find evidence also that the forward
edge of the glacier extended some so
or more miles beyond the present
coast line. Georges Banks and the
sands of Cape Cod are the abiding
visible record of the glacier deposit
ton that went on not far away.

The surface of sponge is covered
with little holes that are larger at the
top than at the bottom, while the
whole mass contains a system of
channels. When the animal is alive
water is kept flowing constantly
through these channels by means of
minute hair-like appendages which the
little polyps agitate. The water thus
drawn brings with it the food required
for the sustenance of the sponge.

According to Professor Adam Sedg-
wick there is reason to believe that
buds share in the growing old of the
parent plant. He illustrates his
meaning in this way: Suppose the
average life of an individual plant, say
a tree. to be 100 years, then a bud re-
moved when the parent plant is so
years old will also be virtually so years
of age, and if transplanted by grating
will be able to live on the graft only 50
years more.

A German periodical contains an ac-
count of the most recent ascents of
Count Zeppelin's navigable balloon.
Several notifications have been in
troduced into the construction of the
machine, one of which is an alteration
of the steering apparatus. The speed
of propulsion relatively to the air was
estimated at about eight metres per
second-about IS miles an hour. The
weight of the machines was about
10 tons.

AFTER considerable waiting the
substitute for the Stevens Primary
Election bill has been reported. With
three new blades and new handle it
is the same old jack knife. In fact,
the substitute is a substitute more IN
words than in essence. The vital feat
ures of the Stevens bill remain. There
is no compromise in the new bill in
the matter of conventions and caucus
es, and wherein there has been change,
it results in very little Improvement
The slight change in the distribution
of signers of nominating papers is a
small improvement. On the whole,
however, the substitute does not make
any effectua1 efforts to meet the oppo
sition, and the purpose of its friends
to adhere to the salient features Of The
Stevens bill is manifest.

THE SMART SET. FOR APRIL.

The April number of The Smart Set
is crowded with articles and stories
that command public interest. The
leading novelette, is entitled "The
Tanning of SYLVIA and is by Eliza.

to Knickerbocker society as Mrs. James
G. King Duer. This story gives the

what difficult conversion of the hoyden
Sylvia, the granddaughter of ''the
General" a millionaire gentleman of
the old school," into proper young
lady of society and matrimonial sub
ject, will be followed By the reader with
intense amusement. Bobbie, her ''side
partner" objects strongly to what he sol
EMMY considers her ruin. "You know,
Countess" he says, II can't approve
of it. When I had charge of Sy1 she
was in frst-c1ass condition. She could
skate all the morning and ride all the
afternoon without turning hair; but
look at her now! How she has gone
off! You haven't felt her muscle late

that if she hit ME now she could make
me feel it, and last month / almost

Julien Gordon MRS. Van Rensselaer,
Cruger) contributes to the number a
long short story, Sin Palace Gardens"
that was awarded $3.50 in the recent
prize contest in this magazine. It is
story of Americans in Florence,
where Mrs. Cruger sojourned during
the past year, and is written with re-
markab1e power.
Mrs. M. E. Sherwood has an inter
esting article, entitled Certain Patri-
otto Exiles," on the American colony
in Paris. During her residence abroad
Mrs. Sherwood was an intimate ac-
quaintance of many distinguished
"exiles,' and her "reminiscences will
prove entertaining to a large circle.
Another brilliant article in the number
is ''The Lovers of the World" by Ed

Mrs. Pou1tney Bige1ow, Clinton Ross,
Douglass St. George Huntington, Guy
Somervil1e, Francis M. Livingston,
Kate Jordan, Katharine de Wolf, Mar

The number is especially rich in
verse, with poems by Edgar Fawcett,

Directors of the KenOsha Country Club
Meet for Their Annual Election
of Officers.
JAMES CAvANAGH is PRESIDENT.
The Fixtures of the Club will be Issued
within Few Days and the Season
Opened Late in April.

The annual meeting of the directors
of the Kenosha Country club was held
on Monday evening at the office of the
Balm Wagon company. Every direc-
tor of the club was present and the
meeting showed that great deal of
interest is being taken in the workings
of the club. After the various reports
business transacted the directors pro-
ceeded to elect officers for the coming
year as follows:
President-James Cavanagh.
Vice President-Char1es w. Allen.
Treasurer. C. Brown.
Secretary-R. M. Ho1derness.
The long list of committees to have
charge of the different departments OF
the club during the season will be an
nounced by President Cavanagh later
in the week.
The directors are planning to make
the coming season the most successful
in the history of the club. The new
links will be laid out early next month
and plans are being made to improve
the grounds in many other ways
Many new mem ers have already been
found and it is thought that the club
will have at least two hundred mem
bers during the season. The retiring
president, Mr.. George Yule, has made
splendid officer, and under his man
agement the club took high sta nding
among the western golf clubs.
During the coming season the club
will take a greater interest in the
events scheduled by the Western Coli
association and regular team will be
selected to represent Kenosha in these
events. Many teams from all parts o.
the country have already asked fol
matches with the Kenosha club and az
far as possible all will be accommo
dated. The fixtures of the club will
probably be made public before the
opening of April.

HONOR FOR FORMER KENosHAN
n Max Dunning Wins Scholarship offered
by the Chicago Architectural Club.

N. Max Dunning Wins Scholarship offered
by the Chicago Architectural Club.
N. Max Cunning, former Kenosha
boy, is winning golden 1aurels as an
architect in Chicago, and as result of
his latest venture he will be given the
privilege of taking trip to Europe to
Study in the different lines of his pro-
fession.
Mr.. Cunning went to Chicago from
Kenosha some six years ago and he
has advanced SO rapidly in the work
that he was declared the winne- of the
travelling scholarship offered by the
Chicago Architectural Club. Mr..
Dunning by his work has earned an
enviable distinction among the archi-
tects of Chicago. In speaking of his
victory yesterday he said:
81 am of course very much gratified
at winning the clubs European schol-
arship prize. 1t will enable me to ac-
complish long-cherished wish of Wis
iting Italy, France and England and
studying their wor1d-renowned archi-
tectura1 gems.
"The subject of competition was the
residence abroad of an American ann
bassador, centrally located, bounded
by an avenue and three streets; in
closed by walls with gates and laid
out with drives, walks, gardens, foun-
tains-in fact, an ideal American resi-
dence, such as we find in Chicago or
in any other large American city.
The design should be in harmony with
surrounding buildings, and yet be dis
tinct1y American in type.
81 do not claim for my design that it
is perfect, but if it were erected by the
government in Paris, which was the
city intended for my design, am sure
it would constitute substantial claim
for American love for and ideas of
art"

Friends and Foes OF the Street Rail-
way Company Seek to Come To-
gether on Bridge Matter as Il
ARNOLD MAKES A PROPOSITION.
Proposes to Build the Bridge According to
the City Plan If Granted Use of West
Main Street for Line of Road.

B. J. Arnold, Engineer Mojeska,
City Engineer Moth, Mayor German
and the members of the streets and
alleys committee held conference at
the city hall yesterday afternoon to
make an effort to make a final settle
ment of the troublesome bridge ques-
ton. An agreement was reached and
at the next meeting of the city council
the committee will report favoring a
compromise suggested by a proposition
from Mr.. Arnold. The proposition of
Mr.. Arnold was that he would build
the bridge in accordance to the plans
furnished by the city engineer, which
have been approved by the govern
ment engineer without the city paying
any of the expense of the bridge, if on
the other hand the city will amend the
street railway ordinance SO as to allow
the company the privilege of building
their tracks on West Main street.
1t is said that this report is favored
by nearly all the members of the COM
mittee and it will be presented at the
meeting of the council on Wednesday
evening. At the meeting of the COM
n1ittee it was shown that the plans
proposed by the city engineer will
make the bridge cost the company
quite little more than the cost of the
bridge according to the original plans
but the management of the company
believed that the favor of granting the
use of West Main street would. be
worth the added cost. Alderman
Greenwa1d is opposing any change of
the ordinance. He raised two objec-
tions to the change. The first one was
that it was his opinion that any
change in the ordinance would invali-
date the whole. The second objection
was the old story Of the company Sc
curing a monopoly of the street rail
way business in the city.
Should the present report be adopted
by the Council it would have the effect
of granting the company the monopoly.
It is very probable that some effort
will be made to defeat the adoption of
the report, as many of the people
interested are opposed to the granting
of West Main street to this company
without clause whereby the line may
be leased to other companies seeking "a
right of way through the city.

printed name of the candidate for
the office. The ballot should not
be marked in any other manner.
If the ballot be spoiled, it must be
returned to the ballot clerk, who
must issue another ballot in its
stead, but not more than three IN
all to any one voter. Five minutes
time is allowed in booth to mark
each ballot. Unofficial ballots or
memorandum to assist the voter in
marking his ballot can be taken
into the booth, and may be used to
copy from. The ballot must not
be shown SO that any person can
see how it has been marked by the
voter. After it is marked it should
be folded so that the inside cannot
be seen but so that the printed in
dorsements and signatures Of the
ballot clerks on the outside may be
seen. Then the voter should pass
out of the booth or compartment,

MINISTER WI is diplomat, sub

their Waterloo. When he seeks to
avoid interviewing he is not disagree
able and frosty, but simply overfows
with enthusiasm and turns the tables
on the interviewer by asking more
questions than the man who has come

AS HARD as it for a camel to pass
through the eye of a needle, SO hard is
it for the modern author to get lis
books on the shelves of the modern Ii
brary. What is the trouble? A very
large percentage of the books of the
year were declared unfit to ornament
the shelves of the Boston public Ii
brary and many more only managed
to squeeze through. Maybe the Bos-
ton reading committee is a little more
strait-1ace than the majority of
such committees in the libraries OF the
country. At any rate, it stands as a
fact that the Hub has set an example
to the States by refusing SO many
very readable books place, that in or
der for the public library to serve its
real purpose, there ought to be some
means of getting all the patrons of the
library on the reading committee
some time during the year. Otherwise
they will be deprived of the oppor-
tunity of reading many of the. best
books unless they suffer the expense of
purchasing them.

ed a new invention, in fact an entirely
new piano key action, which IS far SUI
perior to any other used. Sticking
and rafting of keys in this new action
is an impossibility. 1t is also self
