TOURS EUROPE
FOR THE FAIR
Lieut.. Garden, Sent After
Machinery Exhibits for Ex-
position, Lecturing Here

Lieutenant Godfrey Lynet Garden of
the United States revenue cutter SER
vice, who is at present assigned to
duty in the machinery department of
the st. Louis exposition, is at the Pal
ace Hotel The officer only recently
returned from an extended trip through
Europe in the interest of the exposi-
ton. He was assigned by the Wash
ington authorities to the Pan-Ameri-
can Exposition as superintendent of
the munitions of the War Department,
and having made a success of his work
there his services were asked for by
the management of the fair at ST.
Louis. During his recent travels
abroad Lieutenant Garden visited all
the important machinery manufactur-
ing centers, including the big gun
plants, and has since made several in
teresting reports of his observations to
the st. Louis Commission and written
number of technical articles for the
scientific papers of this country. 1t
was these reports and contributions to
the papers that prompted the st. Louis
Exposition Commission to start him out
on lecturing tour, which has already
included addresses at many Of the lead
ing colleges and other institutions of
learning in the East and Middle West
and will include many more before his
trip has ended. His itinerary in this
city includes two lectures, both at the
Young Mems Christian Associate IN S
Hall. The first was delivered last even
ing and the second will be delivered
tonight. Next week he will speak at
Stanford, and then proceed eastward
to keep enga gements at other colleges.
All of Lieutenant Gardens lectures are
illustrated with photographs which he
took while visiting the various big
among them the Krupp Gun Works of
Germany, and he dwells mainly on the
comparative magnitude of the estab-
lishments of the different European
countries, their methods of manufac-
turing great machines and the condi-
tions that exist there in the way of
making those manufacturers strong
competitors commercially and in
science and progress to this
country. Discussing his observa-
tenant Garden said that while the
United States was keeping apace, if
not in advance of the rest of the world
in the matter of mechanical construc-
ton, it had yet neglected to pursue the
economical methods practiced in Eu-
rope. With its great facilities for man
ufacturing and its technical knowledge,
! this country, ne declared, is proceed
ing in it's art of mechanical construc-
tion in a waSteful manner, and he cited
many kinds of machinery in which his
claims were fully justified. among them
the modern locomotive and the furnace
blast. with their enormous percentage

CORBETT WORKS
BEFORE THRONG
Large Crowd Journeys to the
Beach to See the Champion
Go Through His Stunts
MAKES BETS ON RACES
Appears to Be a Trifie Fat,
but Says He Is Feeling Bet
ter and Stronger Than Ever

The fine weather was hailed with
shouts Of delight yesterday at Young
Corbett's ocean beach retreat. 1t put
every one in a joyous mood and made
the little champion feel like working
harder than he has worked for many
days
A large crowd made the pilgrimage
to the training quarters and the gym
nasium was filled to overfiowing. Cor
bett seemed pleased at the idea of be-
ing so popular, and the faster his ad-
mirers came the harder he worked
The champion says he is just right.
He looks a little fat, but claims 10
weigh about 133 pounds, and is not
worrying over the weight. He is GER
tainly strong and has plenty of vim
and snaD. His wind is as good as it
ever was, and therefore Corbett says he
is satisfied with himself and ready to
fight at any old time.
He has quit boxing now for keeps. He
is afraid of injuring his hands, and
viii therefore devote the rest of his
time TO taking spins along the road and
doing some work in the gymnasium.
The latter place was we'll heated yes
terday and the little fellow wore heavy
clothes and was busily engaged for sew
eral hours in working off superfuous
flesh.
He punched the bag. pulled at the
weights and wrestled with Billy Otis
and Kid Sanfanson till they were
tired. Between acts he made few bets
on the ponies and was anxious about
how they were running.
He took a spin in the morning and
came back feeling fine and great. Then,
after the usual MONDAY rest, the cham
pion repaired to the gymnasium and
spent the remainder of the day there.
He kept up steady clip and switched
from one form Of exercise to another
without a moments hesitation.

Neighbors DenOunce Mrs. Ryder.

Mrs. Frank Ryder of North Beach
was in Judge Murasky's court yester-
day opposing the petition of Frank J..
Kane to be appointed guardian OF her
daughter. Jennie Stretch. She claims
that she is fully capable of caring for
the girl, but her neighbors, who were
in court to the number of twenty. tes-
tiled that she was unfit. They all tes-
tilted in support of Kane's charge that
Mrs. Ryder neglected the little girl
and was inclined to indulge in intoxi-
cants to a degree that incapacitated
her from properly performing moth

Southern States are always
gagged to express its prejudices.
Thus primaries in Louisiana are
praised, because such praise
operates as a condemnation OF
Louisiana's Democratic Party,
while primaries are condemned
in Mississippi, because there
happens to be at the moment no
other pretext for assailing the
Mississippi Democracy. Evi-

people do. pleases the Tribune,

Not Wise at Present.

New Orleans State.
There is considerable discus
sion just now over the suggestion
to change the law so as to have
a great part of the expense of a
primary election borne by the
State. As was fOreSeen by many
the expense of a general State
primary is SO great as to make it
practically prOhibitive to all save
men of considerable means, and
unless the expense is in some
manner reduced either the meth
cd of making nominations will
have to be changed, or the next
nominations can only be con-
tested for by men of independent
fortunes. There may be found a
practicable way to reduce the
cost of the primary method,
but at the present time the pro
position to have the State bear
the expense does not seem wise.
