Rockefeller was attempting to secure control of that railroad system. Capt. John P. Green, First Vice President of the Pennsylvania Company. and E. B.

Cautain Green said it would take S200, 900 to secure control of the Penn sylvania Railroad.
 From whom are they going to get con trol of the road?' he asked. Admitting that such a thing were possible" said another official. what good would 1t do for any person or corporation to gain a controlling interest in the Pennsylvania Company?

II sounds like a joke at the expense of

something in the point. Although Cap

imperial government the colonization
Of New Zealand, no practical step was
taken until very late in the thirties,
when 1t leaked out that the French
were contemplating the annexation Of
the islands. 1t was a close race be-
tween a British and a French man-of-
war, the British ship winning by few
hours. II is conceivable In the excite

called himself Baron de Thierry pro-

the structure will be finished by 1905
Although the fall of the tower was a
deplorable loss. some good attended Il
in the opportunity it gave archaolo-
gists TO examine the bricks.
1t was found that the bricks had been
used in arches, fortifcations, the tops
Of walls and in other ways before they
were built into the campanile and that
they are not Venetian, but Roman,
bricks.
The ancient bricks were made in
slices, for in many the layers could be
seen undisturbed. 1t is said that bricks
made this way can bear a greater
weight than modern bricks.
The bricks examined were of the first
century. One of them bore the imprint
Of a horseshoe, which may prove that
the Romans used a horseshoe like ours,
although it is generally believed that
their horseshoes were strapped on, not
nailed.

odd labor exchange, which is described
in the Scientific Australian. 1t is in
tended primarily for the unemployed
and includes as members accountants,
architects, bakers, dentists, engineers,
printers. authors, artists, journalists,

Any member in need goes right along
at work at his trade. If he is a shoe
maker, for Instance, he takes a pair OF
boots to the exchange and receives a
certificate equivalent 10 their estimated
value. This he can offer at any time in
return for its value in such other goods
as may be deposited at the exchange by
other members, and thus actual cash is
rendered largely unnecessary, though
