and looted most of the buildings OF
the great part of all movable treas
ures. Not so with Herculaneum.
There very different material
drowned the town. An enormous
mass of Lapilli, full of sulphur and
of ashes, fell on the slope above the
doomed place, and at the same time
TERRIFIC sheets of water came down.
This mass was fluid enough to roll
down the slope and literally obliter-
ate Herculaneum with a sulphurous
mud, in some place to the height of
sixty or seventy feet. While this
material was not glowing lava, it
penetrated courtyards and buildings
and incased everything in a mass
which became as hard as concrete.
It is the toughness of the envelope,
not its depth, which has made the
mining OF Herculaneum a puzzle to
treasure seekers for nearly 1000
years.
To excavate Herculaneum will be
very costly and laborous task, un-

soften and loosen the concrete in

buildings in modern times can be
generally explained by the ignorance
Of builders, who do not allow this
work to be thorough before remov-
ing the wooden supports of the col
umns, walls, beams and floors. But
there are said to be solvents of con-
crete, Animal fats, for example, are
said to soften the concrete formed
of cement and water. Perhaps the
problem of the awakening OF Hercu-
laneum will be solved some day in
a double sense by the discovery of
comparatively cheap material which
will loosen the hard and tough stuff
which now holds everything in its
grip. The chemical problem may be |
complicated by the mixture of sui !
phur, chloride of iron, and other ele- |
ments which must have accompanied |
the downfall of water and ashes.
Herculaneum must contain treas

valuable than those OF Pompell when
the latter was over taken, and It has
never been plundered.

MAY COLLEGE FOOTBALL DE
CONTROLLED AND REMODEIED

We are at present undergoing a
storm of discussion as tothe changes
in the rules that will cure the pre-
sent football disease. We are not
in position to pass upon cures at
the present time. What we need is
to establish the principle and the
nature of control. The changing OF
rules will not alter ethical relations.
The chief needs at present, with re-.
ference to athletics, are ethical ra-
ther than physiological.
To reduce this discussion to a de-
finite proposition, let me say that
believe the athletics Of educational
institutions should be under the alb.
solute control Of man whose rela.
tion to the faculty is the same as
that of any other head of a depart
ment whose training for his work,
both in prrctical Knowledge and
scholastic attainment, is as extended
and technic0l as is demanded of a
professor in any other branch, and
whose tenure OF office is as certain
as that OF other college professor
ships. The primary qualifications
Of this man, so far as practical
work is concerned, must be the
ability to get very large number
OF the students actually engaged,
voluntarily, in wholesome out-of.
door athletics rather than to defeat
other collegiate teams upon the
gridiron or cinder path.
College football needs to be con-
trolled and remodeled, but this can
only be wisely done by men who
continuously administer the college
sports; who administer the games
as means TO exercise rather than
as an intercollegiate means of con
test. We need continuous trained
control Of the situation by high
grade men whose situations are not
dependent upon vietory.-From

with IL. Commander Young has
testified that he knew the boilers of
the Bennington were defective be
fore the explosion occurred and he
had had so notified the Navy De-
partment. The fact that the boilers
we're under about half their norma
pressure at the time Of the explo
sion goes far to bear this out. And
1t may be that some re-adjustments
in the Navy Department itself will
come as an aftermath of the court
martial. II is interesting too in
this connection TO see how far geo
graphical lines will be drawn in
dealing with the cadets guilty of

There is talk of modus vivendi
being arranged with Germany to
partially forestal the operation of
discriminating tariff that otherwise
will go into effect in March. The
Secretaries OF State and of the
Treasury are comforting on this
question Secretary Root favors
bill which will make the Dingley
rate the maximum and allow tariff
concessions, while Secretary Shaw,
who is notoriously a standpatter,
favors bill which fixes the Dingley
rates as the minimum and provides
for retaliation in case Of discrimi.
mating duties against the United
States. Which of these ideas will
prevail is of course useless con-
lecture just now. But the mere
fact that the matter is under serious
discussion shows that the Admin
strstion Is alive to the perils of the
situation and that if possible an
outright tariff war with Germany is
to be avoided.

AGE OF A HORSE.

AT public sales one sees so many
old horses sold for young ones that
he who can tell their age feels no
little sympathy for neighbor who
buys a fourteen year. old and pays
a SIX year old price for it. Nearly
every one can tell a very old horse
from a very young one. Frequently
one sees a sleek, far, high lifted ami
NAL passing from general appear
ance for five or six year old that
is fully twice as old.
The lower front teeth, II healthy
and natural, are practically an ac.
curate guide. A yearling has very
short teeth, with deep cuts in the
center, the two end ones being
shorter than the others.
A two Year-old has short teeth,
with comparatively shallow cups.
A three year-old has two long
teeth IN the center, with two short
"colp teeth on either side.
A four year-old has four long
teeth with one short one on either
side.
A five year old has six long teeth,
with deep cups IN the centers.
A six year-old has shallow cups
in the two center teeth.
A seven year old has the center
teeth worn nearly smooth, cups of
second pair shallow.
An eight year old has the second
PAIR worn nearly smooth.
A ten year old is commonly
spoken Of as "smooth mouthed"

NAL grows older the teeth become

OF the end teeth become rounded.
To tell the age with any degree of
accuracy beyond twelve requires
