Building Record for April

Building In forty leading cities for April
shows an increase in the number OF build
ings and a decrease of per cent in cost in
comparison with the corresponding month
year ago. During the month just closed
permits were taken out for the construc-
ton Of 17,S4O buildings, involving 1854 obs go,
against 1921 buildings aggregating in cost
S6s, ,654, an increase of 1,623 buildings and
a decrease OF $4,2O6, ~ according to oflcial
reports to Construction News. Were it not
for the heavy falling of in Chicago for
April of this year, the statistics in point
OF cost would show a gasn. The decrease
In operations in Chicago is readily ac-
counted for. In April year ago permits
were taken out in Chicago for the court
house involving a total cost of $4.500,000;
Otto Young. for a twelve-story mercantile
building at las States street, SS00.O00 Con-
gress apartments. 700. and the Pike
building at 1853 State street, $4,000 1t viii
therefore be seen that Chicago is not fall
ing behind but that the figures for April
a year ago were abnormal, consideration
OF these figures from the different cities,
show some gratifying revelations. far
more interesting than at any time for
several months The most notable gain
was in Portland. Ore, where permits were
taken out for S92 buildings. involving

of remarkable activity. the percentage of
increase from month to month being

terially changed; the gain for the month

GREAT DEVOTION OF eYP
Fox Terrier Travels One Hundred aud
Twenty-FOur Miles to visit
Her Puppies.

One hundred and twenty-four miles Is a
long distance for short-legged little fox
terrier to travel I'm less than one week, yet
a certain fox terrier named Gyp recently
went all that way to see her two babies,
from which she had been taken. And she
had no one 10 tell her the direction. In
stinct and mother love taught her where
to CO.
Gyp. who is a very young mother, only
IS months old lives in Salt Lake City. Her
master is Harry c. Fisher Gyp accom-
panied her master on a visit to Weston.
Idaho. and stayed with him on ranch
owned by August Jensen. One day. while
they were there, Gyp came frislSing to RIr.
Fisher with an extra amount of pride In
the wag OF her nipped-of tail and in
formed him in her doggish language that
she had something very beautiful to show
him. Naturally his curiosity was aroused
and he followed where, barking and jump
ing joyously. she led him. There, hidden
away in one Of the barns, was litter Of
little blinking puppies.
There was a large family Of them at first,
but, as dog families will, they dwindled to
two before many weeks passed. But Gyp
loved these two dearly, and when, Mr..
Fishers visit being ended, he took Gyp
away with him and left the puppies, 'she
was grieved, as any mother would be. The
babies were six weeks old then.
About four weeks after their arrival in
Salt Lake City Mr.. Fisher missed Gyp. At
first he did not worry. He thought she had
Just gone out for run or on hunt for
the bones which are so dear to the heart of
even the most carefully brought up dog.
But whole day passed and no Gyp The
Fisher family began to be concerned. Two
weeks passed. and still no Gyp. The Fishers
mourned their pet as lost. She must have
been killed or stolen, they say. Then
thought struck Mr. Fisher. He sent a
post card to Mr. Jensen, Weston, Idaho.
And great was the rejoicing in the Fisher
home when the answer came. for II an
nounced that Gyp was safe and sound at
the Jenson ranch. She had arrived, foot
sore but happy, ten days before.
Tier arrival was the occasion OF great
rejoicing in the kennel" said the note.

The Drinking Way OF Europe
Why There Are No Saloons American Treating

,--Eyii of the American Treating Habit
the desire to treat circles around the
gang. Half, Or all of them are drunk
at the end. In Germany, on the con-
trary, each man pays for his own
beer, which is much better than our
custom. They pay their individual
hills, drink as much as they want to
and then go home in a sober con-
dition. They enjoy themselves. We
are hoggish and don't enjoy our
drinks.
Il was at the lHofbrau Haus in Mu-
mich where were seated a. one time
1000 persons drinking Munich beer.
Women were just as numerous as the
men. 1t took the crowd on the aver
age 10 to 20 minutes to drink one
glass of beer. Americans would have
swallowed it like lightning Germans
sip the stimulant gradually, getting its
full taste, as We do our wine.
"Of one man in Munich asked the
question, Why is it that there are so
many drinking here and you have no
intoxicated persons?' He answered
with three reasons. He said first that
Germans did not drink to become
drunk. Secondly. he said. they drink
only small quantities and do it SLOW
ly, thus missing the intoxicating re-
suits of the beer. Third, the thought
the, absence of DRINKS was to be as
cribed to the fact that treating was
unknown.
1T was the same all over the conti
rent. There they drink for a social
chat. Americans in Europe get tipsy
and then make themselves the laugh
ing stock of the natives. They call for
cocktails and gin and champagne and
become shot up good and hard. In
many cities they have signs ever the
restaurants American saloon-Amer-
can drinks. That means that the
proprietor Is catering to the Ameri-
can love of whisky and is making our
thirst for liquor put shekeis into his
pocket

Kansas City Star.-While on an ex
tended tour of the old countries, DR.
Abraham K. Yoosuf, who has just re
turned to Worcester, Mass, from
abroad, became interested in studying
the drinking habits of various ma
tions, and has come home with SONS
ideas of his own on the subject.
"Contrasted with the German and
Austrian methods of imbibing spiritu
Gus liquors, the Americans drink toe
much, and their actions in general
while in saloons par.ake more of thu
porcine nature than Of sane human be
ings," said the doctor today.
I'VE ought to take few hints from
cur German and Austrian friends and
lear to dring decently, said DR.. 700
SUI. Then, instead of making reser
voirs of ourselves we could imbibe as
decent people should. Why, our Gus
tom of treating the cSwd is abomin
able.
In my opinion, the temperance
problem is the most vital thing il
modern life In the United States" con
t1nued the doctor. 81 did not see one
drunken man during my whole stay
on the continent. Here can see then
every minute in the day.
When | first entered German terri
tory | was struck by the absence Of
saloons as we have them. No bars
were to be seen anywhere, and on H.
|quiry learned that there were none
Instead, there were restaurants and
gardens, where hundreds of men
omen and children drank beer. Al
these places are eminently respect
able, and indecencies are never either
seen or heard anywhere.
AS they are at present working il
will be impossible for temperance la
borers to accomplish anything IL
America. They have taken the wrong
track. Owing to the American thirst
for liquor and the high tariff now
charged by the government, | don
think they can put stop to the
traffic.
II have two or three reasons &c
account for the difference between
the prevalent American wholesale
swilling of whisky and beer and the
sober behavior of Germans and Aus
trians regarding taking drinks. The
latter don't creep stealthlly into bah
and drink. They do it on the open
where the public sees what is going
on.
They all drink beer-men, women
and even children. 1t is family mat
ter, and each drinks a sufficient quan.
t!ty and then leaves off. Americans
gulp beer down; besides, they are Sc
cretive about it.
I'm Europe there is no such thing
as treating the crowd. Our custom is
bad. A man enters a bar and sees his
friends lined up for a drink. Someone
says, Have a drink on me- and then

Russian Premier Smarts Under a
Fiery Attack,

flery Attack.
st. Petersburg, Dec. LIN the
DUMB Saturday, FEEDER /. Red.tcheff,
orator of the constitutional demo
Gratis, made a fierce attack upon
Premier Stolypin. The speech caused
intense excitement and the uproar
was so great that the sitting was
suspended. Stolypin, during the ex-
element, left the chamoer and later
announced his intention of challeng-
ing Reditcheff to duel. The sec
onds he named, however, instead OF
arranging for duel, arranged to
forestall such an event, and calling
upon Reditcheff inquired his inten-
tons toward the prime minister. He
denied he had intended to make a
personal attack upon Stolypin, and
later personally begged the premier's
forgiveness. When the session was
resumed the duma, by majority of
80, voted to suspend Reditcheff from
the sitting.
