To foreign statistician the world is
indebted for some very interesting data
in regard to the most approved meth
DDS of courtship in civilized countries
These data were compiled from several
hundred novels and romances, the OBJ

From 100 typical cases OF accepted
declarations of love, the statistician
obtained the following figures: Eighty
one of the 100 men vowed that they
could not live any longer without the
adored ones; ~ held the ladies' hands
in tight grip; 60 kissed them on the

home Long GampaiGns-

The campaigns in South Africa and
the Philippines may seem long drawn
out. but for wars Of long duration ana
desultory fighting Europe holds the
palm. A singular discovery has just
been made by a French journal When
Napoleon 1. was waging war against
Prussia in 1907 he exacted tribute from
various towns, among them konlss-
berg. This town now finds that the
debit which should have been ext1n-
guished in 1914 has been extended ow
ing to unforeseen circumstances and
its total abolition cannot take place
until the present year Konissoers, sc
far as can be discovered, is taking nc
steps to celebrate this final casting Oh
OF French thraldom- There are salo
to be many such ragged ends OF wars
in Europe. For example, year or t"'
ago the little principality of Lichten
stein was still technically at war witt
Prussia. and been at war since lSo'
and very likely is still at war.

freedman Not Yet Beaten.

Spalding suggests that 1.-The key that
will unlock this situation quicker than
anything else will be for the Stock
holders of the New York club to hold
an early meeting and elect successor
to Andrew Freedman as president.
AS Andy is the custodian of that key
it is not probable that he will use 1t
to his own undoing. For man who
has been "officially" declared out OF
baseball, Freedman is showing sur
prising vitality and exerting consider
able influence. He has held his hall
of the National league together and
won a negative victory by tying up
the organization in the courts and pre-
venting Spalding from exercising ex-
ecutive authority. One faction or the
other must surrender before the sea-
son begins, or both will be beaten. A
four-club league cannot be successful
and neither the Spalding or the Freed
man half of the league can equip four
other clubs with parks and players.
The first step the magnates took after
assembling last December was to de-
clare the National league perpetual.
The next move was to divide 1T into
halves. Their subsequent proceedings
indicate that they intend to go out OF
the business.

CONCRETE CONSTRUCTION.
Methods of building That Have Proved
Generally Satisra ctory.

Methods of building That Have Proved
Generally Satisfactory.
The discovery OF cement is credited
to two Englishmen, Parker and Wyatt,
who obtained this product for the first
time by the calcination of argillaceous
hodules Q795), and since that date it
has found numerous applications in
every department in civil engineering.
Among these applications OF later date
came the invention, by Leon Coignet,
of beton or concrete, of which he made
artificial blocks as hard as natural
stone. 1t has been impossible to dis
cover to whom the engineering pro-
fession is indebted for the idea OF
imbedding a metallic skeleton struc-
ture within a mass of hydraulic mortar
or concrete; but boat constructed In
this manner was shown at the Paris
exposition of 1885. About the same
time Coignet built some dams of iron
and concrete, and five years later he
applied the method to the construction
OF floors.
These early combinations, however,
did not show a satisfactory resistance
to tension, and the system was con-
sidered too dangerous for use in build
ing construction. 1t has been only
within the last ten years that practi-
cal engineers have undertaken to re
| enforce the portions of a structure un-
| der tension by members of iron imbed
| dsd in concrete, deducing the rat1ona
| methods of construction now known
and included in the general term of re
| enforced concrete. Very recently, II

he homes that the affidavit will sci
matters at rest.
