sKYscRAPEKs IN oLDEN TIMES
Roman Law Prohibited Buildings More
Than 100 Feet High.

"The skyscraper is no modern In
we'll read in the history of his profess
sion.
"In all the ancient cities where
brick or stone was available, high
houses, within the walls of the city,
were very numerous, because of the
lack of ground space for building. In
the days of Augustus the tenement
houses in Rome became SO high as to
be dangerous, and laws were passed
condemning number of tenement
rows and ordering them to be taken
down, while at the same time law
was enacted limiting the height of all
future tenements to 100 feet. For
palaces and public buildings there was
no limit. After the burning of the
city in Nero's time the streets, which
before were no wider than our alleys,
were made broader; some of them,
through the business part of the city,
were 40 feet wide, and some of the
great thoroughfares were 60. The
tenement height was lowered to so
feet, and, as a consequence, the city
spread far beyond its walls The
average height of a ceiling in Roman
tenement was little over five feet;
the windows we're open holes in the
wall, stopped in cold weather with
board shutters. So, by comparison
the worst modern tenement is a pal
ace compared with the skyscrape1
home of the poor when the empire
was at it's best"

STOCKINGS,

1t is related that one William Rider
a London apprentice, happening to see
pair of knit stockings at the house
of an Italian merchant from Mantua,
made pair like them, the first made
in England, which he presented to the
earl Of Pembroke, 1864. The art of
weaving stockings in frame was in
vented in England by the Rev. Mr..
Lee of Cambridge in 1889, 25 years
after he had learned to knit them
with needles. Cotton stockings were
first made in 1880. The ancients wore
cloth about their feet and legs, and in
modern Europe cloth hose were in use
for generations before knit hose were
known.-N. Y. American.

ENDORSE Plan
FOR GOOD ROADS
(By Associated Press.)

SACRAMENTO, Sept. 19.-The as
sembly room of the chamber of COM
merce was filled this afternoon by
delegates from all parts of northern
California, who came to discuss good
roads and plans for improving the
high ways of California. The meeting
was presided over by Hon. Marshall
Diggs, president of the Development
association.
j. M. Eddy, of Stockton, secretary
of the California Good Roads associa-
tion, spoke at length upon the cost Of
hauling by good and bad roads
throughout the United States. r. M.
Morton, representing the good roads
bureau of the United States depart
ment of agriculture, discussed various
roads that are now being built in the
states. State Engineer Ellery con-
fined himself on needed amendments
duu CHdA6Co Ou CnC plCoCnI AdWo
which govern road construction Of
California and the necessity for sys-
tenn of maintenance. E. G. Cooper,
private secretary to Governor Gillette,
in the absence of the governor, ex-
planed plan suggested sometime
ago by the chief executive that the
state be bonded for $18,000,000 with
which to construct 5000 miles of
roads, reaching from one end of the
state to the other with feeders to
reach every county seat. At the con-
clusion of the meeting resolutions
were adopted endorsing the COVER
nor's plan.
