CHANCE TO THROW STONES
Real Glass Houses Now Constructed
in Des Moines--Idea of Iowa
Designer.

That living in glass houses isnot
an idle dream is shown by Frank
G. Perkins, in his article on Mod
ern American Glass Houses in
the. Technical World Magazine.
Mr.. Perkins describes some recent
structures of this character in
Des Moines, as follows:
these buildings we're designed
by c. +. Eastman, a well-known
architect of Des Moines. La. whose
idea of glass.wall construction
includes the use of milk white
Opalescent wire glass One-quarter
inch thick securely fixed in two
steel vertical divisions, which are
parallel and laced together for the
purpose of stifiening. These di-
visions are supported at the floors
by brackets riveted to steel chan
nels of the floor construction. The
wall thus consists of two glazed
screens separated by a foot of
dead air space, which affords insu-
lation against heat, cold or sound
to as great an extent as would Il
solid brick wall of the same thick
ness.
The double vertical divisions
are spaced about four feet apart,
The two glass screens are translu
cent to any degree desired, so that
in cages where windows are not
necessary for viewing the land
scape, they may be dispensed with
altogether, provided the building
would warrant the installation of
mechanical ventilation and heat

LIE oRoUsE,s DRUMMING.
Explanation Of sorndto Which Mys-
terry Has Always Attached
whistle Of Woodcock.

Few subjects have been somdch
discussed by sportsmen as the
whistle of the woodcock and the
drumming of the ruled grouse.
10 the latter sound much mystery
has always attached, says Forest
and Stream. The dull rollof thun
der comes out of the air froaa dis.
ltance in the depth Of the forest,
and cxcites the wonder of the
listener, but its direction and its
distance seem so, uncertain that
he is not likely 90 try to find it.
Few persons have seen the bird
i'm the act of drumming. and Of
those few a still smaller number
have been trained to observe the
ways of nature or todraw just con.
illusions from what they may have
seen. Nevertheless many people
y-some observers and some mere
theOrists-haye expOunded their
Views on the subject. 1t has been
declared that the grouse drums by
beating his wings against the ob.
iect on which he stands, against
his own body, or against each
other above the back but.nOne Of
these have satisfied all the cOndi
tons and all are to be rejected.
In the year 1905, however, Prof.
c. f. Hodge, of Clark university.
carried on a series Of observations
on his domesticated ruffed grouse
which point to another explana
ton, and which appear to show
that the sound is made by the rap
idly repeated blows Of the stif
wing quilts against the erected and
expanded feathers of the side.
which thus form a feather cushion.
Prof. Hodge says: in fact, the
sound, so far as quality goes,can
be best initiated by striking with
wing properly stretched or even q
cOncavc fan on an extremely light !
eiderdown cushion" Prof. Hodge
conjectures, too, that the bird |
while drumming fills the air sacks |
of the breast and abdomen. "In
this way the contour surfaces Of
the strong wing supports along the
sides are made to inclOse a large |
cavity filled with air and this acts
like the resonance chamber of a |
drum, and yields the booming
thrOb to the air"
Prof. Hodge believes, as has
long been agreed, that the drum
ming of the ruffed grouse is a mat |
ing call. The fact that the bird |
drums in autumn is no valid oh. |
lection to this conclusion, since |
many birds produce in autumn
sounds which we are accustomed |
to regard as peculiar to the breed |
ing season, though such sounds are |
often or usually made by young |
birds.

The Need of "EIijah Rooms"

Oyerseer Noliva Of Zion City de-
clares that he. is the appointed of God
to reorganiZe' the affairs of that COM
munity and that he can only be re-
moved by Divine will. "If," he is re-
ported to have declared, 'any attempt
is made to oppose me l will leave Zion
City and form a new movement"
1t is not surprising that the people
whom Voliva thus seeks to dominate
do not take kindly to his arrogant as
sumption of authority. Poor, sub
missive. unthinking dupes that they
have been they even have some dis
position to assert their rights! Light
is gradually breaking in upon the be-
nighted atmosphere of Zion City. 1t
is to be hoped that Voliva will fit
from Zion City, and it will be greatly
to the credit of its citizens if they as
sist his departure with a certain
amount Of propulsive force applied be-
meath his coat tails.
Some day in the evolution of the
race, the time will probably come when
not every hypnotist and religious finn
Hammer who comes down the pike
claiming to hold credentials from God
to manage other peoples affairs and
spend other peoples money will i'm
mediatcly be successful in securing q

Making Good Roads in Illinois.

Out in Illinois they are having an at
tack of good roads fever. which now
seems to be epidemic throughout the
country, and in that state they propose
to utilize the work of cCnvicts in road
building. III several Southern states
prisoners hayc long been used in work
ing on the public highways, but ILL
nois is the first to set such an example
among the northern states. In Illinois
the conviCts are not taken out in gangs
to work upon the road as they are in
the South, but they do their part
toward helping along the good road
movement by operating the huge stone
crushers at the state prisons at Joliet
and Chester. The product of these
Crushcrs is offered free to any
municipality i'm the state that has "a
plan of road Improvement. All this
state requires of the town is to pay the
of the Joliet crusher is 400 cubic yards
a day, filling II Of the largest cars. and
it is planned to increase the output to
90 cars a day in both prisons. Every
yard of this crushed rock will be at
the disposal of the towns of the state,
providing the towns follow an estab-
lished and uniform system of road
working.
This is outlined as follows: First, the
road is tiled to afford proper drainage:
dirt is then thrown over the tiles and
brought to a cone in the center of the
road and thoroughly rolled. Then
three layers of crushed rock of varying
grades ere thrown over the dirt and all
| arc rolled. This finishes the road and
