C. A. Mrs. Gladding said that the Y. w.
C. A. had right to congratulate itself that
through it the initiative was given to many
young women who are too timorous or In
different to make a start for themselves.
The association helps many young women
to a higher position In business by giving
them the benefit of the evening studies
which they would not take up were not
such an agency at their disposal. 1t also
helps them in the development of their
physical, intellectual and religious lives.
and offers counsel and help in many situa-
tons arising in the lives of young women
who are alone in the cities. Mrs Gladding
said that she was compelled to believe that
through the Young Womens Christian AS
ISOLATION God had given the impulse to
women to say to other women that you
do not have to do things alone" If some
body takes the initiative and the hours are
convenient and the terms simple but not
pauperizing. an association of this kind
can give inspiration and help for a better
life.
She said the association had also reason
to congratulate Itself that by its influence
it brings young women out OF an indiffer-
ence or hardness. which is so often the re-
suit of business relations. In the business
world there We're many things that would
tend to make them feel that everything
was hard and cold, and that sney must look
out solely for themselves. The speaker said
that she knew that the association had
done much for many such women by put.

of having heard from the representatives
of the association in the country made a
statement of the local conditions and needs
She said that while the representatives OF

had been uplifted and made glad at the i'm

constantly been in their minds. What
about the eighteen thousand wage-earning
Young women in our city, She said that
good progress had already been made in the
establishment of rooms for the newly or
ganiZed Y. w. G. A. at the corner or 12th

floor would be devoted to a lunch room,
the second floor to rest rooms and libraries
and the third floor to gymnasium and
baths. Educational classes would be con-
Quoted, and religious work. in the shape of
Bible classes. mission study classes and
yesper services would be begun at once.
The speaker was glad to report that the

that the building was for them, and would
be Just what they made 1t.

GOING At LAST.

Having received and perhaps solemnly exam
ined the order of court requiring him to remove
all advertisements from the Public Library
fence, the Park Commissioner yesterday broke
the painful intelligence to Mcnamara & Co.
that their particularly good thing was at an
end. The pungent letter which the Mayor re-
Gently sent to Mr.. Palas gave assurance that
the abuse would be terminated without much
further delay, and it is not necessary to accuse
the Commissioner of contumacy because he
chose to wait until Justice Scotts order had
been formally served on him. though little
more alacrity in complying with the Mayors
wishes would have been becoming. That he
had full authority to revoke the license was set
tied on appeal two years ago, and Mcnamara
& Co. must submit to the inevitable, consoling
themselves with the thought, which affords COM
fort to nobody else, that, if they had been COM
PEELED to pay a fair price for their privilege
their profits would have been smaller by from
$12, 900 to $4,000.
However, there is this to be considered that
If the bargain which Tammany leaders ar
ranged for the benefit of a Tammany favorite
had not been so obviously unfair to the city
from the pecuniary point Of view 1t might
have been harder to arouse public opinion
against a use of public property which ought
not to be permitted on any terms The process
of getting rid of the library fence advertise
ments has been educational, and 1t has led TO
the deliverance of judicial opinions which VIII
probably protect the city hereafter from SINH
lar abuses

II that all things are to be done. We are not

that fundamental fact in mind and act upon IT,

THE BRITISH PATENT LAW.

An act of Parliament passed in 1902 and
amending the British patent system took effect
at the beginning of the current year. The most
important change that has been made is the
adoption of novelty in an invention as q requi-
site to official approval Of an application. Here
in the English practice is now closely allied to
the American. The labor of patent examiners is
greatly increased by the new law, for they must
extend their search Of the records back over
period of fifty years in order to find out whether
a given invention has been anticipated wholly
or in part. but the innovation is unquestionably
wise one, and is sure to be regarded with
favor in this country.
Curiousy enough, the rules formulated for
carving the measure into effect have not
escaped criticism, so reputable n periodical as
Engineering having found much fault with
them. No objection is offered to the demand
that an applicant shall place his claim" at the
end of the description or specification when
framing his papers, but the requirement that
the claim be 'clear and succinct' is pronounced
arbitrary and dogmatic Such a complaint GER
tanIy seems irrational, and it excites n sus-
picion that the critic who utters it is not en-
tirely unprejudiced.
When British examiners discover that an in
vention for which patent is sought lacks nov
city, and are disposed to report adversely on All
application, the applicant may appeal to
higher tribunal. If the latter sustains the ex-
aminers a patent must be granted in case the
inventor insists on having one. The rules
MAKE it possible for the Controller (whose flmc-
tons correspond to- those OF the Commissioner
Of Patents i'm the United States) TO compel the
introduction Of n few words referring by date
and number to earlier patents which seem TO
cover the same ground. This provision is se-
verely condemned by Engineering" because 1t

PANAMA CANAL CONTROL.

The exnacted movement for reorganization Of
Che Panama Canal Commission has begun ID
earnest bill has been introduced In Con-
eress for the entire abolition of the body, while
another proposal is that 1t shall be reduced 10
three members. who shall all be engineers. Stll
other plans VIII doubtless be developed, while
there wiz. Of course also be a strong effort to
have the present commission retained intact.
From q personal and sentimental point OF view
fhe incident is to be regretted, because there Is
danger that estimable men viii regard their re-
,noyal from the commission as an invidious re-
fection upon them. In that they will, however,
be IN error. There is no desire TO get rid OF any
member OF the commission on personal grounds.
and certainly there is no aspersion upon the
character or capacity Of any. 1t is simply
thought that the general plan of the commits
sion. however suited to the preliminary work,
which Is now nearly done, is not the most efh-
Gent for the permanent execution and control
OF the undertaking.
The pian OF large and mixed commission
arose from the scope and variety of the work
in hand Diplomacy. administrative govern
ment, police and judicial functions. sanitation
and other matters, as well as engineering pure
and simple, were all involved. They will, In
deed. continuously be involved long as the
canal exists. Perhaps IL was well. as we have
suggested, at the beginning TO commit all these
matters to the commission and TO have the
commission numerous enough and sufficiently
varied In character 20 deal with them; but il is
a pertinent and important question whether the
tine has not now come for separation OF those
matters, committing the actual engineering
work 70 a purely engineering commission and
the other functions to other authorities, or else
for the centring of all authority In more COM
pact body. which shall appropriately divide the
work among its subordinates.
In whatever plan Is adopted the principle of
efficiency should be supreme The sole reason
OF our going to Panama ct ell is to construct
canal. Everything else Is subordinate to that
II viii be well to consider carefully, too, the
destrebility which many competent observers
regard as a necessity, OF having commissioners
who Will reside permanently on the isthmus
and viii devote their entire attention TO the
canal. This greatest engineering work the
world has ever seen is surely great enough 10
merit such devotion. Anything less would be
unworthy OF II. Nor should residence on the
isthmus for ten months In the year be regarded
as en- intoierable hardship. IL the chief engi-
neer and his STAFF and a whole army Of other
officials, employees and laborers can live there
the year round, surely the commissioners should
be able 10 do so. Really. II Is not bad place
10 live in IL people viii only observe a proper
regimen and sleep under mosquito nettings.
There is another point deserving OF thought
and that IS the question of civil or military rule
COR the canal zone. The employment of army
engineers on the canal is obviously commend.

Well. why should it not? In the United States
no such addition to the text Is demanded, be-
cause the Patent Office has the power to refuse
to grant an application If it is not convinced on
the score of novelty. If it is not possible 10

Britain there should be some way of distinguish
