ARE BOOK REVIEWS NgWs7

There seems to be n difference OF
opinion among editors as to whether
the appearance of an important new
book is an event deserving OF any
mention in a crowded newspaper. Is
the review of good novel or a great
history a matter of real public inter.
est? The Chicago Record Herald is
one Of the comparatively few newspa-
pers that answers this question in the
afilrmotive by printing reviews and
news OF the latest books every day in
the week. II believes that lis readers
are intelligent men and women, who
wish to keep up with the worlds lit
erary events. as well as with other
important news. Its literary depart
ment, under the editorship o: Edwin
l.. Shuman, Is generally acknowledged
10 be the most ably conducted in the
West. Mr.. Shuman's reviews are
sought and quoted all over the coun-
try, and so are those Of his brilliant
corps of assistants. Walter Little

every Saturday keeps Tne Record
Herald's readers informed on all the
forthcoming books OF Importance, and
cable dispatch from London every
Sunday gives the latest book news of
the English capital. Thus by cover

as thoroughly as those of every other

THE BIRTH OF A BOLT.
How Thunder Storms Occur.

The thunder storm is not a baby to
be proud of although the Romans
charge its paternity TO Jupiter, the
ruler Of the gods.
Science now furnishes a fairly salts.
Factory, II not absolutely accurate
story OF the mechanism of its proauo-
tion.
The thunderstorm usually begins
to form early In "a hot day. The
moist air near the earth, heated by the
suns rays, expand and rises to the
cooler dry currents which condense
the moisture into clouds, which form
"Thunderheads." The particles OF
moisture, from friction, gather charges
Of electricity on their surfaces and
these charges are massed IN, ithe
cloud.
The 'thunder-squall" which precedes
the rain is an outward rushing Of the
wind in recoil from previous upward
pressure. Perhaps this is increased
by the cooling Of the atmosphere by
the shadow Of the thundercloud and by
the downward brushing of rain drops.
The particles Of moisture finally hay.

The greater number of flashes are,
however, from cloud to cloud because
OF difference in potential of the char

are several miles long while flashes to
earth are one TO three miles. SO, the
positive electricity seems'to care more
for getting even with its heavenly
neighbors than for uniting with the
negative which is wooing II from tree
tops and chimneys. Possibly the idea
that cloud charges are never negative

NEW YORK LETTER

New York June 23--Now comes Pro
fessor Sabin, head Of the chemistry
department of the University Of Yer.
mont, who, adds to the troubles of
Brooklynites the fear that the bridges
over which they travel daily TO and
from their work in Manhattan, may
fall
Prof. Sabin has warned the bridge
engineers that II some measure Is not
taken to insulate the Williamsburg
and Brooklyn spans will rot to pieces.
Ever since the Williamsburg bridge
was completed leaking currents OF
electricity sent out by the great Edi.
son company plant, on Pearl street,
Brooklyn, have travelled to this rity
by way OF the Brooklyn bridge, thence
up the Bowery and back to Brooklyn
by way of the Williamsburg bridge.
Only lately has II been realized what
a vast amount OF wasted current had
been making this hoop of the East
River and rotting and corroding steed
and metal In It's course The Juice"
as IL is called, leaks from the trolley
wires in Brooklyn. from the great
Pearl street distributing plant from
the third rails that cross the bridge
and the supply current to the Brooklyn
rapid transit elevated and surface lines
and from the subway In this city.
Prof. Sabin. who is an expert on elec.
trolysis, declare that the colored- paint
with which the metal has been coated
Is not only OF no service whatever, bur
an added menace because II prevents
a proper investigation Of just how far
gone the metal is. Under It's Opaque
surface cables and framework OF steel
decay TO an alarming extent before
any knowledge is obtalnable OF their
insecure condition, he says. Engineers
have figured that leaky mains that

said the same dangerous conditions
are obtaining on the great East River
spans. The nuts and bolts are notice
ably suffering most. The cables and
stanchions are aso affected. Where
ever moisture gathers on the metal the
vagrant currents OF electricity attack

engineer pointed out that when Man

CUT DOWN THE ARMIES

II is a good thing that one Of the
nations represented at the peace con-
fernece at the Hague reserved the
right TO introduce the matter OF lin
itation OF armaments; and naturally
we Americans, who believe in univer-
sal peace, will be proud OF the fact
that II was OUR government that
took this action,
There will be no agreement on the
part OF the so-called civilized govern
ments to limit their armament-not
yet. But the mere introduction OF
the subject and its discussion will
help some by making the people OF
the world think more about the wis
dom Of GOING OUT OF THE. WAR
BUSINESS ALTOGETHER.
So long as the organized govern
ments of the earth are exploited by
the few for their own benefit, there
will be rulers who will need armies
and navies in their business; and
there will be men who will carry
guns and lead the non-productiye
lives OF soldiers. simply because they
viii get paid for it. THE RULERS
WILL Make THE PEOPLE WHO
WANT PEACE PAY FOR WAR.
There is no doubt In our mind that
the great mass OF the people all over
the world are opposed to war, and
want universal peace. But govern
ments are so organized that the great
mass OF the people don't get what
they want; and once the govern
ments entered into contract to pre-
serve universal peace and disband
their armies and dismant.e their
nayies, some Of the kings. ezars. em-
pesors and things OF like nature
would be ont of a job. In fact THEY

Threaten q Still Further Annual

In the case of Clara f. Sylvester
and May Sylvester against the State
of Washington, involving the title of
the old capitol grounds, wherein the
State Supreme Court has decided adj
versely to the Sylvcstcrs claim, ques-
tionS have arisen as to the probable
ity of the case being taken to the
United States Supreme Court, for
, final decision. 1t is likely, in
the interim, the matter of the cree
tiOn of the Govern ors mansion will
he deferred. There seems to be no
Federal question on which to base Il
review i'll the Federal tribunal. The
State Court held there was not sutii-
cient evidence of the collateral agree
mcnt. establishing any trust relation
between the first grantee and the
Territory of Washington, by which
in certain contingencies the title
should revert to Sylvester and his
heirs at law. and further plaintiffs
had not prosecuted their claims to
the land in controversy with dill
gencc.
These propositions. whether correct
or incorrect propositions of law, are
sufficiently broad to dispose of the
case. without resort to any consider
alton of the provisions of the United
States Constitution and acts of Con-
greSS relative to the subject matter;
therefore it would necessarily and
legally follow no foundation for re-
view has been laid. Furthermore, in
the event of final adverse decision,
the State has the right to condemn
land for capitol site under the law
of eminent domain. 1t is said the
State board has concluded to go
ahead and erect the gubcrnatorial
structure
