NAVIGATION BUREAU CHIEF
Secretary Morton Discusses With
the President the appointment OF
Admiral T~aylOr's Successor.

Washington, July 30.--Secretary
Morton took up briefly with the presi-
dent at the cabinet meeting Friday
the subject of the appointment of a
chief of the bureau of navigation OF
the navy department to succeed Rear
Admiral Taylor.
The appointment may go to either
Rear-Admiral Robley d. Evans or
Capt. Davis, although other officers
are mentioned f%avorably.
Conditions of the treasury, as re-
CARDS the working balance In the de-
partment were considered with the
president by Secretary Shaw. Thus
far, during July, the expenditures Of
the government have exceeded the re-
ceipts by about $20,0 00, 900. AS a re-
suit, the working balance of the treas
ury has fallen below $4,000 900. This
fact has suggested the possibility OF
making a call on national bank deposit
tories for a part of the deposits of the
| government in their vaults. Secretary
Shaw is convinced, however that no
call will be necessary, perhaps for a
considerable time, and so informed
the president.

HISTORIC RELIC At THE FAIR
Cut Glass Chandelier, Gift of Marie
Antoinette to Lafayette.
fantry Company, of Providence,
on His Visit to America.

st. Louis, July 30.-Among the
collection Of beautiful and his
toric articles that adorn the Rhode
Island building are a pair of cut glass
chandeliers that were the gift of Marie
Antoinette to Lafayette, and by him
presented to the First infantry COM
pany of Providence upon his visit to
this country in 1926.
This ancient and honorable" mill
tary organization, passing through
many vicissitudes, neglected these his
toric relics, and they were consigned
to an old bushel basket and placed in
one Of the store rooms of the armory.
Here they lay for years, their spangled
prisms detached, and the condition al
together dilapidated.
The Rhode Island commission, hear
ing of the neglect of these valuable
chandeliers, arranged for their recov-
cry, and men were set to work to rem
pvate and restore them to their former
splendor. Although the ornaments
had been neglected, it was found that
but few of the many prisms of cut
glass were missing, and it was a sim
pie matter to restore them to their
places.
These chandeliers were first made
for candles, afterwards for gas, and
now they glow with electricity. They
originally hung in the little Tianon,
where Marie Antoinette, wearied by
the exactions of the court, fled for
recreation, and where in the dress OF
a shepherdess she rolled a hoop,
jumped rope, and otherwise deportd
herself as a child.
Lafayette, who withstood the troub-
ulous times of the French revolution,
retaining the favor of Napoleon, and
at the same time his democratic ideas,
was a favorite of Marie Antoinette,
and these chandeliers were presented
to him as a mark of this favor.

STABILITY OF MOUNTAINS.
Scientific Measurements for the Infor-
nation of Generations Yet
Unborn.

At the recent gathering of the Asso-
citation of Academies, Sir A. Gelkle
moved a resolution, which was unanl-
mously adopted, says the London Tele-
graph, in favor of international coop
Grafton in the efforts to obtain Pre-
else determination of levels in noun
tain chains subject to earthquakes,
with the view of ascerta!ning whether
such chains are stable, or are undergo
ing movements of deviation or depres-
sion" Another proposal aimed to Sc
cure measurements of the value OF
gravity, with the object, so far as geo.
logical questions are concerned, OF
throwing light on the internal distribu-
ton of masses in the earth and on the
rightly or isostasy Of the terrestrial
crust. These problems call for minute
and rigorous observation. In this way
it is believed to have been proved that
the land about the city of New York
has been subsiding since 1875 at the
rate of about Las feet (nearly 171a
inches) per century. Posterity 1000
or 10000 years hence will have a right
to know not merely how high Etna or
Vesuvius was in 1904, but what were
the elevation and appearance of Beachy
Head; how much the old rock has lost
by waste of the sea at its foot, or by
denuding rains on its summit and
TANKS; or how much 1t may have
r..- TI.-x I'LL
know these things in 1904, just as they
will know how the stars and nebulae
are distributed in our skies, and the
knowledge will be very helpful to the
future astronomers and biologists. In
these matters photography as the
handmade of research, can render east
ly and cheaply incompatible services.

MY SAILOR LAD.

o, the wine is in the lilacs and the drum
ming of the bees
Drones across the golden sunshine 20 my
hammock meath the trees, :
But my heart is with my laddie a. he
sails the clover seas,
Where the wind-waves are splashing
And the clover caps are dashing-
o, my heart is with my laddie on the
seas.
From the port of the piazza rail I
watched him sail away
To catch the crafty Spaniard where he
turks in Red-Top bay,
And the locusts piped ito quarters" as
he steered to join the fray,
With his curls tossing lightly,
And his colors Haunting brightly
As my laddie steered his stout ship to-
ward the fray.
And my book? All. I'd forgotten. Let 1t
lie. For what's to me
All this printed coil, this tangle now Of
two hearts, now of three.
When floating louder, floating fainter
from the clover sea
I hear the shouts of battle,
Cannon's roar and musket's rattle
Floating fainter from the clover blossom
sea?
But / smile across the clover as I watch
the slant sunbeams,
For l know that in my arms-and sooner
ever than it seems
A tired little sailor lad will drop away to
dreams;
While the silver moon is sailing
Among the star lamps trailing,
My drowsy laddie IL board the Ship Of
Dreams.

GREAT MEN AT BUNKER HILL
Characteristic Conduct of Lafayette
and Webster at Laying of
the Corner Stone.

On June II, 1925, the streets Of Bos-
ton were thronged with citizens and
country folk. AS one of the old stage
drivers remarked, Everything that
has wheels and everything that has
legs used them to get to town to-day"
A brilliant civic and military process
sion marched through Charlestown,
relates Youths Companion. In the
place of honor rode the fine, portly
figure of Lafayette. No infirmity be-
spoke his almost threescore and ten
years, for of curse on horseback he
did not display the slight lameness con
tracted in this country's cause at the
battle of Brandywine.
After laying the cornerstone Of
Bunker Hill monument Lafayette re-
fused to take the seat prepared for him
under the pavilion devoted to the off,
cial and distinguished guests.
NO." he said, my place is here
with the survivors of the revolution"
and he took a seat among the veterans
who were resting on rude benches I'M
sheltered from the hot rays of the sun.
The great anxiety of the people to
hear Daniel Webster's speech came
very near being disastrous. The crowd
surged nearer and nearer the stand,
clothes were torn, people were hurt
and women shrieked and tainted. The
marshals, fearful of a panic, endeav-
ored by every means to gain control
over the needless crowd. They en-
treated, they called out commands for
order, all in vain; their very efforts
only increased the excitement.
Suddenly Webster, moved by i'm
pulse, sprang forward and in a voice
| of thunder cried to the marshals:
"Be silent yourselves and the people
will obey!"
They did obey. Those clear, mag
netic notes carried control to every one
of that struggling throng. The mob
became as manageable as a child.

Hearing Restored by Shock.

William Colee, Of P~ittsgrove, N. j.,
who has been very deaf, has had his
hearing partially restored, the result of
being stunned by lightning, and declares
his hearing is almost as good as ever.
During a thunderstorm the house of

and several members of the family were
stunned. Mr.. Coles, who is 81 years old
and Mr.. Alderman's father-in-law , felt
a peculiar sensation in his cara at the
time, and later discovered that his
hearing had greatly improved.
