Wonderful Enterprise and Vitality of
Americans i'm Face of Disasters.

Commercial forces, in whose pres
ence the hopes and fears and opin-
ions of individuals are as nothing. de-
termine where cities shall stand, and
when these forces have fixed upon
site for city they are not to be
thwarted by fire or food, or hostile
army or even by the convulsions OF
nature.
Some ancient cities have disap-
peared. The archaeologist digs
through the sands of the desert, the
accumulations of vegetable mold,
and the debris of human habitation
in search for the palaces of great
kings, the markets of wealthy trad
ers, and tES homes of q once numer-
Gus people. The massacres of ah-
cient warfare may explain some OF
these dead and buried cities. The in
ability of people in early history to
deal with the sanitary problems of
congested population may have been
a contributing cause to their de-
struction. Cities may have died be-
cause their people could not live.
But in most cases a change in the
routes of commerce will be found to
have diverted the stream of nourish.
ment from a city and left It to die OF
starvation. Yet the Eternal City"
and Athens. Byzantium. Jerusalem,
Antioch, and Damascus illustrate the
tenacity of municipal vitality, even
though long succession of centur-
les brings great changes in the meth
DDS and subjects and courses of traf-
tic.
The destruction wrought by the
Chicago fire was so vast that there
was a moment when it seemed as If
the site might be abandoned, but the
ruins were not cold when contracts
had been let for rebuilding. Fire
was a calamity that might befall in
one locality as well as in another,
but the destruction of Galveston by
tidal wave was promoted by its To-
cation and there were suggestions
even from Galveston itself that the
city be rebuilt on the mainland in
stead of an island almost washed
over by the Gulf of Mexico But it
was only suggestion; the city grid
ed itself with sea wall; it raised it's
own level many feet, and, defying
hurricanes and tidal waves, it has
established itself more firmly than
ever upon the sand-spit whence it
was so nearly washed away.
The commercial forces which have
built up San Francisco will rebuild
it. The lines of commerce there con-
verge; there is the deep and land
locked harbor, and there must al
ways be city. The steel-frame con-
struction. so familiar in the Eastern
cities, though only sparingly en-
ployed in San Francisco, is proof
against the tremors of the earth, but
in the earthquake belt the height of
buildings will be limited and the en-
closing wall will have to be of metal
or better attached to the frame than
is necessary elsewhere.
In two or three years San Fran
cisco will be larger and more beauti-
full than ever, and will defy confla-
grations and seismic shocks.-Phil-
adelphie Record.

Profit in Mexican land.

Land in the arid portions of Mex
leo is still very cheap and can be
bought in tracts of 1000 to 900, 900
acres. The price is rising, but not
at the rate it will probably reach in
the near future. Without any effort
at improvement, investments made
with reasonable carefulness will
bring good returns by the enhance
ment that improved methods of com.
munication, agriculture, etc, are
bringing about. There is good
chance to enlarge considerably tho
area OF irrigable land in theso tracts,
aside from the gain in value due to
improved methods, better stock and
other improvements q progressive
rancher can make, The land invest.
ment offers a surer, perhaps even n
larger prospect for profit than in
vestmenrs in mining enterprises.

come to the country engage to come

Iinnid Stnne.

Concrete is the new medium of the
engineering wonder-worker. First he
builds the gaunt steel skeleton of a
skyscraper, with a wooden mould of
the desired width about the thin steel
girders. Into this mounld he forces
the liquid stone, and waits a few
hours for it to harden. Then the
wooden shields are removed, and
there stands a smooth wall, which
grows harder with the passage of
each day and will withstand a greater
pressure than granite or steel itself.
Or he builds great bridge, leaping
a hundred and fifty feet at a single
span, of slender steel rods, forces the
concrete inside the temporary wooden
skin which marks the desired shape,
and has next morning, a structure
of strength and beauty, which will
defy all the power OF winds and
waves alike. Or, where twenty years
ago a tall chimney would have been
laborlously built up, brick by brick,
and a dozen feet in thickness at the
base, he spins his steel-spired web,
poirs his liquid stone into a thin
shell of less than a dozen inches, and
beholds slender structure towering
hundreds of feet into the air and
strong enough to stand anything
& hort of a cyclone.-D. n Harper, in
Technical World.

IN OLD WAR DAYS.
How the Great Struggle Made Busi-
ness For the Bucksport Stage.

If one wants to hear marvellous
tales concerning stage driving in old
times he should go to Bucksport and
secure talks with some of the old
chaps who can remember back to the
days of the Civil War. Then, as now,
Bucksport was eighteen miles from
everywhere"-fro Bangor, Belfast,
Castine, Ellsworth and several other
smaller places. Stages left the old
Robinson House in professions every
day.
Some OF those old drivers were re-
markable men, skilled in handling
the ribbons very popular with
their patrons and heroic in their
labors to be on time under every con-
dition of weather. The names of
these men would fill considerable
space in newspaper. Most OF them
are dead now, but they are not for
gotten.
There is another aspect of stage
driving during the Civil War times,
which no one has recorded us yet
the great traffic which was carried
on by hackmen and stages in carry
ing persons who were anxious to get
away to New Brunswick as soon and
as quietly as possible. The demand
for soldiers was urgent, because the
needs of the nation We're great. Many
young men who were physically able
to serve in the ranks did not have a
liking for the job, and sooner than
argue the case, they sought rest and
seclusion under her Majesty's flag,
even as many vessels owners did for
their property, which was exposed to
the ravages of Confederate priya-
teers.
Not all OF these young men who
sought New Brunswick for safety
were residents OF Maine by any
means. Many came to Bucksport by
the Boston boat, and went inland
on stage or on foo. or by private con-
veyance, as their finances dictated.
II the stories OF those refugees could
be told, much of interest would ba

dadlers.' as they were called. and

The Founder Of Kindergarteus.

Born in Thuringia in 1882, Froebel
began his career as a teacher in 1906
at Frankfort-on-the-M Main, and later
took part as soldier in the war of
liberation. 1t was not till 1916 that
he began to put his theories of edu-
cation into practice. Ten years later
he expounded them in his first i'm
portant book, and shortly afterward
began the training of teachers. In
1896 he opened his first kindergarten
school at Blankenburg. The rest of
his life was devoted to organizing
kindergarten schools. He died in
1852.
The first successful kindergarten
in the United States was opened at
St Louis in 1873. Milwaukee was
not long in taking up the idea, and
for time was Mecca for educators
desiring to witness the system of
Froebel in practical operation. The
number of kindergartens in the coun-
try at the end of 1873 was forty
three: 1882, 34S: 1892, 1911; 1898,
436S. There are now in the neigh
