WE BOAST of the refinements and complex
ties of modern civilization, but in our uses of
noise we are as primitive as the savages who
beat tomtoms and blew conch shells to make
jubilee. Our musical science has advanced
enormously in a century, but our popular
uses of music are as barbaric as the earliest on
record. In consequence of this the musical
ear of the Brooklyn Eagle is offended and
makes this criticism upon the noises one hears
at the greatest pleasure resort on earth: "Coney
Island is the great festival spot of the people
which loves to call itself the most civilized on
the globe, yet the internal regions ever poured
forth worse din than that to be heard along
Surf avenue when the steam organs are blaring
in warning keys and two or three bands from
inside the great show reservations are pouring
separate tunes into the general conflict, it has
at least escaped record. Yet thecrowds wander
along through the tumult actively and demon
stratively joyful Nine tenths of the daily
thousands think that this discord of brassy
sounds helps them to atune themselves to the
holiday mood"

In AN editorial article on the annual meet
ing of the Maryland State Teachers Associa-
ton held last week the Baltimore San says:
"For no other purpose are the people so heav-
lily taxed as they are for education. The cost
Of the public schools in this small State in 1904
was about $30O0,00O, besides about $25O,0OO
appropriated for private schools and colleges, a
total sum far in excess of all the other costs Of
conducting the government of the State. And
yet with this great outlay the average salary
of the teachers in the counties was only S271
year, a sum less than the wages of an unskilled
laborer. In the Act of 1904 provision was
made for some increase in the compensation
of the teachers most poorly paid, SO that $500
shall be the minimum. But, in view of the
increased cost of living, this sum seems mean
enough. There is great deal of talk about
the high American estimate of education as
the greatest boon. But figures do not justify
it. There probably is no class of workers
more meanly paid. Washington pays the
city dogcatcher three times as much as it pays
the average teacher, and Washington ranks in
its lberality to the schools in the first class of
cities"

CAR WHEELS AND CURVES.
Scientific American Answers Questions
Regarding Them,

"A answers OuGBC1On&
Regarding Them.
One Of the questions from corre-
spondents that comes to this Office
with persistent reiteration is that of
the possibility Of one or the other of
the pair Of wheels on a railroad axle,
in passing around the curve slipping
on the rail over which it is rolling,
While the other wheel does not slip
on Its rail, says the Scientific Ameri.
can. Although we have frequently ex-
planned how this condition is possible,
the question is one that evidently
continues to puzzle a great many
people-in which respect it Is first
cousin to that other much-de-
bated fact, that the portion of
the periphery of rolling cart
wheel that Is near the ground Is NOV.
ing more slowly with relation to the
earth than Is the rest Of the periphery.
In the case Of the two wheels on any
axle of railroad or trolley car that
| Is passing around curve it Is evident
that in given length, say 100 feet Of
| the curve, measured on a line lying
| centrally between the two rails, the
| inner rail will be shorter than the
outer rail, and this for the reason that
it is struck to radius that Is about
| four and three-quarterS feet shorter.
| Now, when a pair Of wheels passes
around the curve it follows that, be.
| cause of the difference in length Of
the two rails, either the inner wheel
must slip backward on the inner rail
| or the outer wheel slip forward on the
outer rail, for the two. wheels, being
fixed on the same axle, move at the
same peripheral speed over different
lengths of rail in the same time.
1t Is probable that the excessive
wear of the rails on curves Is due
chiefly to the slipping of the wheels.
| Not long ago some remarkable facts
on rail wear on curves were brought
out in the course of paper read be-
fore the New England Street Railway
Club by the roadmaster of the Boston
elevated road. The road is exceeding
ly crooked, over 40 per cent of the line
consisting Of curves, many Of which
are very sharp. There are eighteen Of
less than 1OO-foot radius and sixteen
others with radius Of less than $50
| feet. On the sharpest curve, which is
of only S2-foot radius and where it Is
claimed that the traffic is heavier than
that on any other steam or heavy cleo
trio railroad, the life of ordinary steel
rails averages only forty-four days, the
head of the rail wearing down from
0.60 to OFT of an inch in that time.
The great Inconvenience caused by the
constantly recurring repairs led the
company to experiment with hardened
steel rails and when some nickel steel
rails were put in On the curves the
wear was reduced to 053 of an inch
in 204 days. A manganese steel rail
is now being used with good results
and the wear Of these is only about 33
per cent as rapid as that Of the nickel
steel rail and about 6 per cent as rapid
as that of the carbon steel rails.

ure was due to the prompt action and
the bravery of John Sewer.
Sewer had enlisted every able-bod-
led man and boy in the district Of
western North Carolina in his COM
pany in the Continental army. When
the British came down on them, he
charged up the slope of Kings Noun
tain, met them at short range, and,
with force Of less than 800 men,
turned the fortunes Of the day.
Sewers work did not end with the
close Of the war Of the revolution. He
was really the founder of Tennessee,
that he called Franklin. He was the
first governor Of the new State, taking
the oath of Office on March 1, 1888.
Out Of a wild country he modelled q
government. This western territory
became the hotbed for conspiracies
and rebellions Of every kind against
the government of the United States.
1ntrigues between the savages and
the British were in constant progress.
That none Of them were successful
was due to the vigilance and incor.
ruptible patriotism Of Sewer.

It was great, wild country, says
Theodore Roosevelt in Scribner's. In
the creek bottoms there were a good
many ranches, but we only occasion
ally passed by these on our way to
our hunting grounds in the wilderness
along the edge of the snow line. The
mountains crowded close together in
chain, peak and tableland; all the
higher ones were wrapped in an I'M
rent shroud Of snow. We saw a good
many deer and fresh sign of elk, but
no elk themselves, although we were
informed that bands were to be found
in the high spruce timber where the
SHOWS were so deep that 1t would have
been impossible to go on horseback,
while going on foot would have been
inconceivably fatiguing. The country
was open. The high peaks were bare
Of trees. Cottonwoods and OCCASION
ally dwarfed birch or maple and will
lows, fringed the streams; aspens
grew in groves higher up. There were
pinons and cedars on the slopes of
the foothills; spruce clustered here and
there in the cooler ravines and valleys
and high up the mountains. The dense
oak brush and thick growing cedars
were hard on our clothes and some
times on our bodies.
Bears and cougars had once been
very plentiful throughout this region,
but during the last three or four years
the cougars have greatly diminished
in numbers throughout northern Colo
RADIO and the bears have diminished
also, although not to the same extent.
The great grizzlies which were once
fairly plentiful here are now very rare,
as they are in most places in the Unit
ed States. There remain plenty of the
black and brown bears, which are
simply individual color phases of the
same species. .~...
