THE MODERN HOTEL,
\ Product OF the Times, n II Mads by
the Guests,

the Guests,
Amonr the silly and absurd articles
appearing from time to time concern
ing hotel and tavern keeping. one tells
us again and again how the modern
hotel Is shown to disadvantage when
compared with the inns Of colonial
days. In these articles the writer d.
lates and expatiates on the hospitality
Of the old time tavern, and the cold,
indifferent and almost cruel treatment
received from the hands of the modern
hotel man. OF course every one knows
II he will drop sentiment for a moment
and give the subject little sober re-
Election that the modern traveller, tour
LIST or hotel guest would absolutely re-
fuse the accommodations afforded by
the Inn Of hundred years ago. The
only advantage Of hotel Of those
times lay IN the fact that the lack Of
material comforts drew from the tray
eler a warmer fellow feeling and great
er sociability-a condition In which one
man was more his brothers keeper
than prevails today. Again, the travel
by coach and the small number thrown
together, en- route or at the hotel, made
closer acQuaintanceship not only posi-
BILE, but far more desirable than In our
day Of big hotels and big crowds.
The modern hotel ia product Of the
times. The wants, desires, whims, fads
and. ON top Of all these, the imperative
demands of those who travel have
made the hotel Of today what It is from
the standpoint Of food, accommoda-
tons, method Of service and manage
ment and from every point Of view.
The hotel keeper Of today responds to
the bidding Of the guesGs. One might
almost say Of the man and woman who
travel: Here is your hotel. You have
planned It, furnished it You have out
lined Its methods Of management, and
It is what you believe should be COM
pretended In the modern hotel"
The colonial tavern, which would not
be tolerated for a moment In our days,
was adapted to It's times. To speak OF
1t as being superior to the modern hos.
telry Is to claim that the old stage.
coach, which left you more weary and
worn at the end Of q hundred miles
than the palace coach does today al

DEAD WATER.

One of the most curious marine pho
lnomena known to seamsp Is that call
cd by Norwegian sailors dead water"
which, without any visible cause,
makes vessel lose her speed and re-
fuse to answer her hahn. The sailors
only definite knowledge Of tn origin II
that 1t exists solely where there y =
surface layer Of fresh watsr resting
upon the salt waters Of the sea. Sey-
eral explanations have bSsn advanced
by the captains Of ships OF the effect OF
dead water, the commonest Of which u
that the two water layers move In dtf-
ferent directions. The true sxplapa-
ton, however. recently offered by Swe-
dish navlgators and verified by m9the-
NAUTICAL calculation and direct expert
ment, Is that In addition to the ''resist-
ance waves" at the surface the vessel
creates a second line Of subaqueous
waves between the two strata Of wa
ter.
The experiment carried out to dem
onstyate the truth Of this theory was
an exceedingly pretty one. A large
plate glass tank was FIRST mounted on
q wooden frame. The tank was then
flied to certain depth with salt wa
ter. and a hyer Of fresh water was
carefully poured on to the surface, 80
that two separate water layers were
Obtained.
The salt water was biackened with
liquid Chinese ink before the water
layers were prepared, and In this way
the different layers were made clearly
visible. A boat model was then towed
along the tank and silhouette Of the
waves produeed was obtained by plac-
Ing a white screen at a short distance
behind the tank. The waves were also
photographed by flashliXht. and the re-
suits showed conclusively that waves
actually were set UP at the boundary
line between the two liquids.
Further experiments were made to
verify the sudden loss Of speed due to
dead water. The boat model was
drawn across the tank and the towing
string suddenly slackened when the
boat was about halfway across. In
cases where the tank contained salt
water only the boat stopped gradually,
moving some boat lengths after the
towing string had been slackened
When the tank contained layer of
fresh water resting on salt water, on
the other hand, the boat slackened
speed quite suddenly and moved only q
very short distance.
These experiments, carried out on q
small scale, prove conclusiveiy that the
difficulties encountered within a dead
water zone are really due to the re
sistance experienced by the vessel in
generating invisible waves at the fresh
water salt water boundary. although In
some particular cases the influence OF
Inducements must also doubtless BIZ
taken Into account-New York Herald

SELLING RACE FEUD
AT LOS ANGELES,

Out in Los Angeles this winter Boots Dur
nell and John J. McCafferty are continuing
their feud in selling races. which caused so
much comment on the local race tracks last
year Durneil has openly declared that he
has money enough behind him to ultimately
break the Weinberg stable, which Is man
aged by McCafferty but the latter saws
that he isn't afraid. They have been bid
ding up each others horses at Ascot Park
with regularity that shows the old Ill
feeling, and so far Durnell has a shade the
better of the argument. As long as the
money holds out the fight will go on but
meanwhile there are only two wlnners-the
racing association, which gets half of each
boost, and the public which enjoys the
fun. Durnell is popularity supposed to have
the backing of John w. Gates for he pur-
chased yearlings and racehorses last sea
son with a lavish hand. He denied the
report. however, until Mr.. Gates practically
admitted that he had paid $4,000 for Lotus
Watercress filly that Is expected to cut
something of figure this year McCaf-
ferty's hacker Is Jerry Weinberg of Brook
Ign, who is a game turfman and daring
plunger at times. Durnells grievance
against McCafferty has been a long one and
is said to have been caused by the fact that
McCanerty once displaced Boots as trainer
for Chicago horseman. Whatever the
root of the trouble is. the fact remains that
no turf enemies have ever caused so much
stir In selling races these men, who
threaten TO carry their warfare back to
the eastern tracks in the spring.

STORM wARNINas TO VESSELS.
The Weather Bureau to Enlarge It's
Area Of Usefulness.

The systematic collection Of meteorologi-
cal observations from vessels at sea by
means of wireless teiegraphy and the stimuli
storm warnings to these vessels. based upon
the observations thus collected. is the lat
est. work upon which the United States
weather bureau has entered. A special code
has been prepared in the bureau by means
of which exact Information as to date and
hour, the latitude and longitude of the
vessel. the atmospheric pressure and tenn
perature. the force and direction of the
wind and the character of the sky is all
compressed into four words. According TO
arrangements made the task of enciphering
this meteorological dispatch is performed
without charge by the. wireless operators
aboard the vessel. Upon its receipt at any
dispatch is at once forwarded here. Should
occasion demand. special storm warnings
based upon the dispatches received will be
prepared and dispatched by wireless tele-
graph to all vessels known to be in the
vicinity affected.
The bureau cites the experience on Octo-
Der IL last of the steamship Campania
which was caught in a hurricane. That
storm was found to have had no great area,
and It is stated that timely warnings as to
its existence might have enabled the Cam
pania and other vessels to avoid its center
of activity.
The weather bureau points out that an
other feature of value is that the system
may enable the sending to transatlantic lin
ers and other vessels of information to
the limit of fog and Ice on the Grand
Banks, so that by slightly altering their
course they may steer clear OF these dan
gers.
