PRESERVING DYING DIALECTS.

From The LoHdoa Do,M Mail.

Although nothing can he donr 10 prcvea Z
the decay Of local dialects, much can be doI .
to preserve their records. The phonogrdph Is
being applied for this plrposa both in Guerno-
sey and In the Isle Of Man. The dialect

the latter MnnS. one of the Gaelic group.
IL is believed that in the Isle OF Man. with

O one will be found 10 ST., ak The dialect.
Tie monograph is being sent TO different
parts Of the island by the Manx Language
society; old men whose accent Ia pure will
speak into the receiver, and the records are
to be- stored at Douglas.
Mr.. f.. d. Marquand says that the old Nor
mau language still spoken IN the Channel
thai used by the cultured classes Of England
eight centuries ago: the tongue in which
Tnillrfcr sang the "Chamson de Roland" at

have become extinct in a very few years.
In Guernsey II will probably linRer on for q

the larger size of the island. partly to it's
proximity to France. and partly also 10 the
influx of French AGRICULTURAL laborors. who

farmers busy season."

COLUMBIA'S STADIUM.
The Arena and watergate Planned at IL
street and the Hudson River.

Here is the plan of the Columbia stadium
which it is proposed to build in the Hudson
River opposite Columbia University. A
bill authorizing the filling in Of the river
waterfront from lleth street to 10th
street passed the State Legislature and
was signed by the Governor. The War
Department has given its approval to the
project. One reason for the favor shown
to the enterprise by public officers is that
Columbia has made a promise to let the
school children Of the city have the use
of the stadium at stated times.
The plan was prepared by H. @. Horn
hostel. From the plan it appears as il
the main part Of the new field Is to be de-
voted 10 football and track athletics. Al
though football has been abolished by
Columbia, the architects plan shows very
plainly the goal posts at tho river end
The running track will go around this

around this central portion and the seating
capacity probably will be in the neighbor-
hood Of 80 900 persons.
