Shall NIAGARA Be Damned /?

With the attention of most thinking
people directed toward Niagara Falls
and its threatened destruction. Alton
ID. Adams, in an article on How to
Save Niagara Falls" in the Technical
World Magazine. offers what may prove
TO be the final solution of the problem.
Mr.. Adams says. With a dam across
Niagara River between Lewiston and
Queenston. ara a reservoir six miles
long and reaching 10 the cantiIever
bridge behind II, plants. taking water
from the dam would operate with a
substantially constant head. To con-
meet such plants with the dam only
short steel pipes would be necessary.
and the cost of the entire development
per horsepower would be very moder-
ate- The water head of 100 feet at
this proposed dam is only two-thirds
of that which Is available most of the
time at the Falls, but on the other
hand the volume OF water passing the
dam is equal to the entire discharge
over both the American and the Horse
shoe Falls.

Lips and Teeth Means of Idenifyine Criminals

One Of the most extraordinary cases
In which teeth have played a part oc-
CURED In 1874 A man named Goss, re-
siding In Baltimore, had insured his life
in various companies for a very large
sum. Goss was occupied in making sam
pies OF substitute for India rubber.
and used to carry on his experiments in
lonely building. The people near were
one day startled by an explosion in the
cottage, and the place burst at once
into a mass of flames. When they were
exttnguished the remains of a man were
found by the Mortified searchers among
the debris. Was il Goss? The in
surance companies refused to pay, as
Goss had magnificent teeth, and the
teeth of the dead man In the cottage
were poor, and some even missing, and
an action was brought against the COM
panies by Goss' brother-in-law, Udder-
zook.
While the law proceedings were pro-
crossing the remSins of a murdered
man were found buried in a wood. and
suspicion fell upon Undertook as the
murderer. The dead man was proved,
by the teeth. TO be Goss, whom Udder-
zook had represented as having been
burned to death.
The whole affair of the burning cot
tage and the remains found In IL had
been arranged between Goss and his
villainous brother-in-law. who after
ward killed Goss either to prevent the
insurance companies finding him or to
secure the whole OF the spoils for HIM
self. Who the man in the burned cot
tage was remains mystery.

Diamond q Tooth.

The distracted nond having been
placed in the tooth, me bottom was
plugged up so as to look like a part
Of the ordinary gold mounting, and the
proud wearer of the ingenious set sim
ply laughed in the faces of the search
ers. The teeth were examined time
after time before the trick was at last
discovered. He could carry diamonds
worth some thousands of pounds in
them.
Lefroy, when he fed and the police
were hunting for him for the murder
OF Mr.. Gold, was found when captured
to have a false mustache in his pos
session.
The latest attempted disguise by
means of a false mustache was the
idea Of a woman. who transformed her
self into a man while travelling in an
empty railway carriage. she having
previously supplied herself with the
necessary male clothes. In order that
the disguise should be complete she put
on a little black mustache- She de
cided to throw on possible pursuers, to
altght at a station considerably in ad-
vance Of that to which she had taken
a ticket, and while explaining to the
ticket collector how II was she had de-
termined to break her journey there the
mustache suddenly fell or 1t was d

to mention the extraordinary passenger

terry. An old LADY named Weston. who

dead in her sitting room. The place had

in cupboards and places-and she had
evidently been done to death by some

she had treated as a friend. Upon the

Manufactured English FLAGS.


I'VE do not confne our trade to
the manufacture of the American
flags" said Mr.. Copeland. During
the recent Boer war representative
of the British war Office, unable to
supply the demand for flags, was
led. through suggestion that he
cable Copeland in Washington, to
place a series of orders which ran
into thousands Of dollars before the
demand could be satisfied
All of the large six and seven
masted schooners recently turned
out Of the yards of the New England
concerns have secured their entire
flag equipment in this shop. In the
Dewey celebration In New York on
the occasion of his return after the
victory at Manila, the flags, includ-
ing those ON the City Hall, in Wall
Street, and many shown on Broad
way, were supplied from Copeland's.
The amount of business done and
the degree of perfection attained has
been accomplished only by the un-
ceasing efforts of the firm and the
installation of the most modern ap-
pliances for every detail of the work.
The manufacture Of code signals,
weather signals. display flags, col
lege emblems and banners of every
description furnishes in itself an in.
dustry of great magnitude.
Turning to detail one sees the
powerful machine for cutting stars,
the immense spools of thread made
to order with 10000 yards on each.
the various special sewing machines
for special work. the large high
speed motors furnishing the power.
the great stockroom, where bolt
upon bolt of the wooden. cotton, and
silk fabrics are stored; the mon
strous spools of cordage, and, in
fact, everything that is required to
make flag ready to float in the
breeze.
Mr.. Copeland is q New Yorker by
birth. That, however, does not de-
tract from the fact that he is now
a Washingtonian, nor from the fur
ther fact that ne built up the gigan-
tic flag trade here. Coming here in
1865 he began in a small way Times
grew better. The development of
the country spread and the Copeland
flag factory spread with it, and to-
day Washington is proud that ii is
the home Of the largest American
flag ever made

EUery Stitch Must Be Perfect.

One group of girls, assisted by a
boy to do the heavy work, are, per-
>haps. just examining a huge flag
for>the Government These are what
are known as the finals To them all
the flags come from the operating
room for a final inspection. Every
seam, every star, the binding, the
measurements, and, in fact, every
thing connected with the making Of
the flag is inspected in the most
thorough manner. Every stitch must
be perfect before It can be passed
by the finals. If the slightest flaw
is found. back goes the flag to the
machine room for resewing, or to
one or another of the groups through
whose hands it has passed. that they
may correct this or that imperfec-
ton before the finals will let 1t
leave the factory.
For the biggest flag" of 1899, il
was decided that the bunting ordi-
narily used was not strong enough.
1t must be pure wool, of course, and
Of the best quality. 1t must be min
utely inspected, and it's holding quail
tiles thoroughly tested. The strain
on such flag is terrific 1t was left
to the final" girls TO find piece OF
wool that could withstand that
strain
Aside from the material every bit
of work on the flag was required to
be strong enough TO stand double
the pull that an ordinary flag is esti-
mated as likely to be subjected TO.
1t was something of triumph to the
girls as we'll as to the manufacturer
that when the flag was raised it
stood the test. The winds of Paris,
even at that far height buffeted it in
vain
A flag of practically the same d.
mensions is hanging in the Pension
Office, and is one of the most inter-
esting things to the army of visitors
which daily wanGers through the
hall where the Inauguration balls
are held. These two flags represent
