In the wall of the five story tenement
at the southeast corner of Oak and
Oliver streets on the side toward the
latter are inserted five bronze tablets,
two between the second and third
floors, one between the third and
fourth and two between the fourth
and fifth. 1t would be safe wager
that not one of the $50 persons living
in the building knows the Significance
of those tablets. 1t was in a tavern
on this spot that the articles of evacu-
alton Of New York were signed by the
British on Nov 25, 1873. The tablets
were first placed in the walls of the
old tavern. The builder of the tene-
ment had some patriotism in his heart
and built them into the tenements.-

Paris. March 23.-An old woman was
found practically buried alive in wood
on the outskirts OF Versailles to-day. She
is the wife OF a ragpicker, who lived in a
hui on the border Of the wood. Nobody
had seen his wife for the last two years,
but to-day a couple of forest guards
while walking through the woods, were
startled by hearing a moaning sound, ap-
parently from some dry brushwood al
most under their feet.
Pushing aside the brushwood, they saw
looking out of hole in the ground the
face OF an old woman. They found that
she was buried in hole. the entrance to
which was less than two feet square.
With some difficulty they dug her out
She was IN a terribly emaeiated cOndi-
ton. and had been lying on mass of
filth in her prison. which was four feet
wide, six feet long, and two feet deep.
The woman. who is sixty years old had
lived buried in this hole for the last
eighteen months Her husband brought
her food occasionally. and when he left
for his days work covered over the en-
trance to the hole.
The woman was sent in an ambulance
to the Versailles Hospital. where she lies
in a serious condition. The ragpicker has
been arrested. Hundreds of people went
to the woods to-day 10 see the place in
which the woman had been entombed for
so long.

WAR SHIPS NOT SEAwORTHY.
Expert Says Germany Dare NOt
Think of Naval War.

Berlin, March 2S.-Germany dare not
even think of fighting naval war before
the year 1920.
This is the verdict which the great Ger
man naval expert, Count Raventlow.
passes on (his country's much-vaunted
fleet. Count Raventlow has nothing but
praise for the officers and men Of the
German navy, but condepnns many of the
battle ships as unseaworthy and obso-
lete.
Seventeen ofethe German battle ships
which figure as formidable fighting units
in all of the navy lists are floating collins.
whose use in war would only mean the
sacrifice Of their gallant crews.
Count Raventlow gives the names Of
seventeen ships which ne includes in this
class of floating collins. and points out
that the construction Of new and more
efficient battle ships is proceeding so slow
" that thirteen years viii pass before
Germany can contemplate the possibility
of naval war with equanimity.
Count Raventiow is not alone in his in
dictment of the navy.
Herr Adolf Stein, another active PAN
German writer. announces that patriotic
Germans are clamoring for the new navy
bill, which is TO provide a more rapid
construction of new great battle ships.
The general expectation is that the gov
ernHent win introduce this bin in the
autumn.

The troops formed a hollow square, with

the military command to assemble. The
majority OF the Kaiser's guests, having

turned his STEPS backward toward the
White Hall to obey the call wondering

LANCET PUNCTUREs SAUSAGE.

on a NeEf Crusade.

London. March 23.-The Lancet which
ever loves TO cast a keen eye on homely
detail Of everyday life. such as poison in
postage stamps or the nutritive value of
Christmas puddings. this week devotes an
article to the sausage.
II admits that on the whole nowadays
sausages are made with wholesome ingre-
dients. though" it says. lit IS a common
subject Of jest. since Il is so often re-
garded as a convenient vehicle for ma
terials which. when undisguised, certainly
do not appeal TO as as being suitable. or
even wholesome. for purposes of food"
IN spite Of this improvement. the Lancet
is not satisfied. and demands Standard
lied sausage, so as TO prevent them from
being loaded with cheap substitutes
which is nearly always bread or broken
waste biscuits"
This, the Lancet says. is a palpable
fraud, as the sausage IS looked upon as
a meaty. and not a farinaceous. food.
Moreover, the price is approximately that
of meat. The Lancet, therefore, demands
a legal. authoritative definition of a
sausage"
