CARRIAGE OF CHARLES X.
Walls of Coronation Coach Presented
to Museum by Widow of
Builder.

Paris.-Mme. Ehrler, widow Of the
famous coach builder of the Tuileries
under the third Napoleon, has Just
presented to the Museum of Decora-
tive Art the four walls of the carriage
used by Charles X. at his corona
ton. The emperor had sent them to
Ehrler in order that the royal coat.
of-arms be replaced by the imperial
monograms. Ehrler, however, would
not deface the works of art, and pre-.
ferred to make new ones for the EN-.
peror and retain the ancient ones.
The inside of the panels are in
gilt and are ornamented with mag
nificent allegorical pictures. The
front and back panels, which bear the
royal coat-of-arms, are decorated with
the figures of Peace, Truth, Force
and Justice. The side panels are or
namented with the coats-of-arms Of
France and Navarro, respectively, and
around them are painted several genii
dressed in the costume of the pages
of that time, bearing the emblems Of
Art, Agriculture, Abundance and
Commerce. The value of the panels
is immense from an artistic as well
as from an historical point Of view.

In tearing open the shell rather than
in throwing the bullet forward, and
as there is nothing to confine the es-
Gaping gas. it has little propulsive
force. Often the heads Of the cart
ridges are torn off and thrown some
little distance. but the bullets hardly
ever fly; that is. the heavier parts of
the cartridge remain behind and only
the lighter parts are thrown off. and
this with no great force or velocity.
In fire firenen can keep we'll beyond
the range Of the thrown fragments and
still be within easy working distance

In the Duluth tests it was found that
fragments Of cartridges were thrown
from 20 to 80 feet. but with so low a
velocity that those who were hit suf-
fered no discontinue. The cartridges
burned contained more than 400
pounds of black and smokeless DOW

bulk, to have made a very serious en-
plcsion; but when this divided it was
found that little. if any, damage would
be caused by it.

GROVER CLEVELAND'S BIRTHDAY,
Ex.President Enters Upon His 10Th
Year Tomorrow.

Associated Press to The Evenin,: Times.
Princeton, N. j. March 17.-Former
President Cleveland enters upon his
SEVENTEEN year tomorrow. He will
pass the day quietly with his family.
The eX-president shows few signs of
his age. His fishing and hunting
and other forms of outdoor enjoy
ment have kept him robust and heal
thy.
1t has now been twenty-one years
since Mr. Cleveland was first inaugur-
ated. Other presidents have survived
longer than that after taking the oath
OF office. John Adams, inaugurated in
1897, lived twenty-nine years after
ward, to die on the same day as
Thomas Jefferson. jefferson survived
twenty-five years after beginning his
first term. Madison's record was two
years better. John Quincy Adams
made record of twenty-nine years,
Martin Van Buren, twenty-five, and
Tyler twenty-one, the same as Cleve-
land. Fillmore survived twenty-four
years. 1t is significant fact, and
one that goes to show how much great
er is the strain of office now than in
the time of Fillmore, that Mr.. Cleve-
land is the only man who has lived
score of years after becoming Presi-
dent since the Fillmore admission.

.READY.MADE HOMES ARE
ALWAYS IN DEMAND

People of democratic tastes, who
like to Give in house." but not in a
lonesome one-solve the problem
easily and to their profit by renting
furnished rooms to pleasant people.
Isn't it better to live in a good
house, with a few dodgers who pay
your entire rent for you little to-
ward your household expenses, than
to live in a small apartment, alone,
with expenses that grow harder and
harder to meet?
If you advertise PERSISTENTLY
you may, at nominal cost, keep
these "READY.MADE HOMES, al
ways tenanted by THE RIGHT KIND
OF PEOPLE, and the somewhat bitter
problem of HOW TO MAKE BOTH
ENDS MEET will give you less con-
Germ.
When you set aside few rooms in
your house as "ready- made homes"
and begin to advertise them you will
be surprised to find how many of the
mice Sort of folks live in furnished
rcoms-and you will be surprised to
find out how easy matter it is to
wipe out the terrors of your own trent
day."

London, March, 17.-Professor Man
uel Garcia, the famous teacher of sing
ing and probably the most Celebrated
centenarian in the world, received
many cards and notes of congratu-
lation today on beginning the second
: eighty years ago Garcia was cele-
brated baritone and more than six
ty years ago he retired, to become the
most successful teacher of his day.
Jenny Lind was the most celebrated
of his pupils; another was Marchesi,
herself a noted maker of singers.
At the time OF Garcia's birth, March
II, 1905, Haydn. Beethoven, Weber and
Schubert were living, Mendelssohn,
Chopin, Schumann. Verdi, Wagner,
Braham and Tschaikowsky were not
born. Garcia was born in Madrid and
his full name is Manuel Patrico Rod
riguez Garcia. His fater was the Gel
elbrated Spanish tenor for whom Ros-
SIM specially composed the part of
Almaviva in 1.-The Barber of Seville"
in 1925 he, with his fathers family,
introduced in New York the first sea-
son of Italian opera ever given in the
New World. Garcia's sister was the
famous Malibran, regarded as the fore
most mezzo-soprano Of her day. She
died in 1886, seventy years ago. His
youngest daughter, Nine. Viardot
Garcia, was in early days the dis
tinguished Pauline, a great vocalist
Nearly half century since Signor
Garcia presented Il paper on the
laryngoscope to the Royal Society, eX-
planning an invention which has since
become one of the most valuable of
the physicians instruments. One of
the most remarkable characteristics
of this grand old an moi music is his
vitality of body and vigor of mind.
That he expects to live some time
yet is evidenced by him telling young
lady, who applied last summer to him
for lessons, to come again to him in
three years. as her voice was too i'm
mature for work.

Philippine Mconants. %

The standard silver coins being used
in the Philippines are known as
"Conants," having been named for
Charles A. Conant, who was sent to
the islands to prepare coinage sys-
tenn. The authorities in Washington
objected to this nickname and dir cted
that the coins should be known as
Philippine currency. Before this order
arrived they were universally called
"Conants. and Notwithstanding the
Official mandate the name has stuck.
