Edison agrees with Hiram Maxim
and Prof. Langley, of the Smithsonian
institution, that the really successful
navigation Of the air will come with
the building Of flying machines which
depend on their power for buoyancy,
not on gas reservoirs of any kind. San

these eminent students of the problem

has been reducing the size of his gas
balloons as his airships have succeed

more reliance on the motors he uses
for speed and steering.

Such deadly accidents are likely in the
early stages Of any successful device

a great discovery will always be paid

law of life.
But the point in regard to flying ma

To Find the North Pole

An expedition is being planned in
Norway for the discovery of the
north magnetic pole, if indeed such a
spot exists, for it has been suggest
ed that what is called the magnetic
pole may not be a definite point. but
a considerable area over which the
needle would stand vertically. There
is also question as to the absolute
fixity in position of the magnetic
pole. Capt. r. Amundsen is to COM
mand the expedition. and the ship
Gioa has been purchased for its use
The start is to be made in the spring

discussed the advantages and disadvan-
tages of modern housekeeping. Mrs.

WOMAN 5 COLUMN
EDITED BY MRS. H. NJ. BARTLETT


One evening, not long ago, as was
coming home from neighbours house
under the dark shadows of the trees
stumbled upon young girl-a girl of
sixteen or seventeen,-walking with the
arm of young mantle young man
was considerable older-around her
waist. 1t is needless to say that was as
much startled as they and l regretted
seeing them quite as much as they re-
GREETED being seen. The question rose
in my mind at once: why was that girl
allowed to be out at that time of night
alone with any man-for do not sup
pose the one in question was doing any
thing more than score of them would
do by having his arm about his compan
ion. How | wish | had the power Of an
giles to make my words so true and
forcible that the mothers in our town
would realize the dangers their daugh-
tiers are running. l have been making
inquiries here and there and many have
come to me with accounts of certainly
very strange instances of freedom that
are constantly taking place in our little
town. What remedy can be found to
make the girls feel the nobility OF pure
womanhood? Likely the answer would
first come to the average mind would
be that the mothers could take care of
their own daughters without the intlu-
ence or suggestion of a chidless woman,
and too say mothers you must do this,
but on the other hand l have unwilling
ly heard of so much that is startling that
l feel all mothers are not fulfilling their
sacred duty of child training and that
there must be some, to many l fear, in
this town who do not know where or
how their girls spend their evenings.
This conversation was overheard this
summer between a boy of sixteen or
thereabout and girl some younger.
The boy asked the girl what her mother
said about her coming home so late the
night before. The girl answered that
her mother did not know what time she
came in. Is this not criminal negli-
gence on the part of that mother?
What is more beautiful than the
purity of girlhood and how can this
be maintained when our children are
allowed to read the class of novels that
is disgrace to the English language,
or allowed to go to the plays that ought
to bring blush to the cheek of an older
woman?
was shocked not long since to hear
two girls of twelve or fourteen discussing
one of the lowest types of plays that has
been in our town lately. They were
speaking of it as naturally and good
deal more Familiarity than they would of
one of Shakespeare's masterpieces.
Far be it from me to dictate to the
mothers as to the way they should man
age their children, but had | been so
fortunate as to have had daughters | am
sure | should have made them feel that
their home life was more preferable to
running about the streets.

by the Senate this afternoon from the Pres
ident. 1t was laid before the Senate In ex-
ecutive session, but was not read as it was

1t is stated that the treaty does not con-
Germ the disposition of the Isle of Pines
Every effort Is to be made now to push
this treaty to the point Of ratification In the
Senate and it is pointed out, as one strong
reason for doing So that until the treaty
stopped from possessing itself of the coal
ing stations on the Island of Cuba, the ex-
ceeding Importance Of which Is brought into
strong relief by the present Venezuelan
complications.
1t is understood that the representatives
Of the beet sugar industry of Michigan,
who so vigorously opposed the reduction of
the Cuban tariff in the last session. will
meet next week and formally announce
their withdrawal Of further opposition to
concessions to Cuba.
This does not indicate. however, 1t Is said
in some quarters. that the pending reel
procity treaty will have absolutely smooth
sailing in the Senate. 1t Is said that some
the treaty until all the political obligations
imposed upon the Cubans by the Platt
amendment have been met. 1t Is also said
that the friends of the French reciprocity
treaty are inclined to think the latter meas
IRE has been pending much longer than the
Cuban treaty and should have precedence
in consideration.

to his salary was an uadervalnation rather
probation for his services.

EXCHANGING COMPLIMENTS.

Congratulate Each Other.

Congratulate Each Other.
Director Merriam Of the census bureau
and Mr.. Frank w. Palmer. the public
printer. have exchanged letters OF congrat-
ulation over the work Of their respective
departments in getting out the census re-
ports in record time. At the time the
census bill was under considerat ton in the
House the public printer was called upon
to state what time would be required in
printing the reports. He replied that any
limitation placed upon the work by Con-
gress could be met by the force in his
office. The act Of Congress required that
two years should be allowed for the print
ing Of the reports, the time including the
preparation of the copy as WELL The pub
lie printer was able to comply with the
terms Of the act in excellent shape, and on
the publication of the last volume Director
Merriam wrote to Mr. Palmer, congratulate
ing him on his success.
In reply Mr.. Palmer stated that the work
could not have been accomplished but for
the excellence Of the copy prepared by the
census bureau
