The Bars Let Down.

Sir Blundell is certainly the first man
engaged I'm retail trade who has ever
been elected TO the Jockey Club. Indeed
the only other member of the club who
is not either a nobleman, or else an
English country gentleman OF ancient
and aristocratic lineage. is Leopold
Rothschild. But now that the bars
have been let down. there is no doubt
that many others who do not possess
these social Qualifications will get into
the club. at the doors OF which they
have been vainly clamoring for admis-
sion for a number of years past.
1t would be a great mistake. however,
TO imagine for one moment that the ac-
ton Of the Jockey Club will in any way
influence the attitude Of the Royal
Yacht Squadron, which occupies with
regard 10 yachting much the same DO
sition as the English Jockey Club does
in the racing world. and there is just as
little likelihood as ever Of Sir Thomas
Upton being elected to the premier
yachting organization OF the world in
recognition OF his eudeavors to win the
America 8 Cup. I..e prejudice against
him among the members of the squad
ron, mainly on account OF his cOnnec-
ton with trade. is today as strong as
at the moment when he first issued his
challenge for the cup. and not even all
the backing which he has received
from his sovereign is sufficient 20 over
come the obstacles which stand in the
way of his flying the coIors OF this
ultra-eXclusive club.
IL may be OF interest to add that the
stewards OF the Jockey Club have just
enacted a rule TO the effect that III any
person shall be proved TO have admin
istered. for the purpose of affecting the
speed Of a horse, drugs or Stimulants
internally, by hypodermic or other
methods every person so offending shall
be warned off Newmarket Heath and all
other places where these rules are en-
forced That is 60 say. off all British
race courses. and 10 be warned of" the
Heath by the Jockey Club is the most
terrible form OF punishment that the or
Eanization can inflict. since IL entails
not only outlawry by the racing world.
but likewise the most cruel form cf
social ostracism The English Jockey
Club has taken this attitude on the
ground that doping is not beneficial
either TO the English turf or TO the
breed Of English thoroughbreds. the two
great things which the Jockey Club ex-
lists to foster. to protect. and to i'm
prove.

In conversation with Mr.. Thompson
he said: The demand this year Is
greater than ever before. The people
are beginning to realize what Mrs.
Eddy's generosity means They have
come TO know that in this way. at this
time, she wishes to contribute to the
happiness Of all who are willing to bo
helped by her and who need the help.
Yesterday q man from just out.
side the town came to me on The
grounds, he had two of his children
with him and one was practically
without shoes. asked him the usual
Questions-whcre he lived, what was
his business, his earnings. his con.
dition.
He replied that he had little
farm, that il was the only means he
had, that ne had no money.
Il told him knew Mrs. Eddy would
be very pleased II he would let me
present a pair of shoes 10 each of the
boys with him and allow me TO send
pair TO each Of the little ones at home,
and you do not know how pleased he
was, and what happiness 1t gave him.
Il assured him the gift did not in
any way tend 10 humiliate him OF
make him less OF man in all that
makes for manhood, and in this spirit
he gladly accepted and herein lies
much of the merit Of Mrs. Eddy's
generooity.
There is no smack OF superiority
In IT, there is absolute avoidance of
charity in the sense in which charity
is dispensed todcy; It partakes more
OF the nature OF gift from an equal

thought is emphasized when We know

CEMENT FROM THE LAKE.
for se in the Construction Of
Chicago Buildings.

Chicago is scraping the bottom of
lakes in Michigan to obtain material for
its big buildings. The mari, part of the
material used in cement for concrete, is
scraped from the bottom of the lakes,
and is now supplying factories which will
turn out thousands of barrels in single
day. reports the Tribune of that city.
In one locality in the upper part of the
peninsula a syndicate has bought II
lakes and is trying to buy more. The in
dustry is certain to spread over large
section of the state, it is claimed, and as
an employer Of labor will become one of
the chief factors in Michigan.
The mari lies under water from so to 60
feet deep, and in some instances covers
the entire bottom Of lake. 1t is taken
up by powerful dredges, which lift two
and one-half cubic yards in single dip
per The material is then dumped into a
hopper and treated until it is of the con-
sistency required. Then. by the power of
air, it is sent through a ten-inch steel
pipe to a great building in which there
are number of watts The pipe is laid on
RATS floating on the lake.
In the watts the mari is mixed with
clay obtained in ineXhaustible quanti-
ties, the banks being not more than five
miles from the plant. The mixture OF
mari and clay is under the scrutiny of
chemist who supervises every detail Of
the work. The material is dried in great
steel revolving kilns and powdered as
fine as flour before it is bagged for ship
ment.
This industry in one locality already
has built a town having one of the finest
hotels in upper Michigan, with dwellings
and stores which make it model viii
lage. More than 200 men are employed.
The factory has produced a large guam
tity of Portland cement, but is enlarging
It's capacity to 900 barrels of cement in
"a hours. Its buildings cover seven
acres. and it is building storehouse to
hold 100000 barrels of the product.
This is one of the results of pros
pecting continued for several years, and
which drew capital from several sec
lions of the United States. Two plants
are in operation and more will be estab-
lished
AS concrete has largely displaced
stone in extensive building operations,
the demand for cement is increasing
rapidly. Chicago requires large guam
titles for foundations, elevating railway
tracks, laying sidewalks and construct
ing bridges. The retaining walls of
thousands of miles of elevated track are
built of concrete. When the demand of
the entire country is considered, Mich
igan has an industry almost certain to
develop the entire upper end of the
peninsula, to employ an army of men.
and to result in the building of many
villages.
1t has been suggested that this ma
terial ultimately will be used in build
ing roads. 1t is claimed that cement
mixed with sand would render the roads
hard and make them the finest drive
ways in the country.
