Certain French papers have lately
been devoting much space in the EFFORT
TO prove that Gibraltar is no longer
the kew 10 the Mediterranean and that
modern steam-driyen ships have de-
s;royed its usefulness 10 England as
a fortress. On this account they are
warning Europe 10 watch closely the
designs of perGde Albion on the op-
posite Moroccan coast. In reply 10
this English papers are pointing out
that Gibraltar has never been the key
TO the Mediterranean save in the sense
of q point d'appui for the British navy.
and particularly the Mediterranean
fleet While il is true that modern
guns might carry across the strait The
chance of hitting wGrship in mo-
ton aye all but nothing. II Is no
longer regarded as anything more than
a supply station for the navy. but az
such il is as important as ever. Eng
land could ret hope TO command the
strait. even if she had fortresses on
the other side, without the help OF
her navy. There are thirteen miles
of water at the narrowest point and
no land guns could prevent fleet
from passing through.

Singular Plurals.

A correspondent who keeps a watch
full eve on our columns wants to know
what are the correct plurals of mon
goose" and phoenix One is tempted
to write "mongcese" as one is tempted
to write "Musselmen," though neither
man nor goose has any claim TO con-
sideration IN these words. Mon
goose" is quite fancy spelling, and
you may spell it munyon's" or mon
gous" or "mungoos," as you will.
Therefore, we think "mongoose" Is
quite plural enough to cover all the
specimens that are likely TO come up
for christening. AS to the phoenix
it's case may be dismissed with the
swiftness of a police court magistrate.
There is never more than one On the
active list at the same time, so the
phoenix does net require plural a;

SLATE FOR NEW WATER BOARD
ON for appointment by the
fr Go sernsa.


The signing by Governor Mickey Of the
compulsory water works purchase bill.
which goes into effect Immediately by rea-
son Of its emergency clause, has already
started gossip as to the composition of the
board. The story, coming from what pur-
ports to be inside sources. is to the effect
that the membership Of the board has al
ready been determined, and that the six
commissioners will be: Herman Kountze,
E. E. Bruce, Lorenzo Crounse, Henry w.
Yates, Euclid Martin and William A. Pax
ton. The first three conform to require
ments OF the bill as republicans and the
second three as democrats.
According 10 the bill the original mem
bers Of the board are to be appointed by
the governor within thirty days after its
enactment, two to serve four years, two
six years and two two years, to be re-
placed at the expiration of their terms by
election, one from each of the two poll
ical parties casting the highest vote for
governor at the preceding election. Va
eancies occurring In the interval are to be
filled by the board itself
The first meeting Of the board is TO be
held at 8 p. m. on the first Wednesday OF
the calendar month next after its appoint
ment, so that unless the new commission,
ers are appointed today or tomorrow the
board cannot organize until the first
Wednesday In March.s The board is also
required on it's very hrst meeting ID
choose ehairman and a secretary, the
latter to be general manager of the plant
when acquired, serving with a permanent
tenure. subject to removal only upon
charges, and guaranteed against reduction
of salary, no matter how high It may be
raised by successive boards. The only
person spoken OF so far for this position
is r. b. Howell, the author OF the bill.

WAGE CONFERENCE MAY FAIL
Operators and Miners I'm secret SEES
sion, but No Aereement Is
Yet Reached.

INDIANAPOLIS. Feb. 2.-The Joint scale
committee Of the Indiana, Illinois. Ohio
and western Pennsylvania miners and op-
orators met in secret session today. =.
Predictions are even made that the min
ers and operators will not get together,
and that the Joint wage conference which
has now held together four years. will 20
to pieces before settlement is reached.
The Joint committee was in session all
day without final result, although a sub
committee was appointed to consider the
demands Of the miners and operators and
report as soon as an agreement is reached.
The appointment of the subcommittee Is
regarded as sign that both sides are de-
sirous OF terminating the struggle at the
earliest possible opportunity.
II Is the general opinion tonight that the
miners will not hold out long for their
original demands and that the operators
will yield much more than they have said
they would. 1t is expected that some
agreement will be reached this week
