State Laws and the Sale of Firearms.

The prohibition, through Legislative
enactment, of the sale of firearms ir
Georgia, South Carolina and Other
Southern States has aroused wide,
spread discussion as to the constitu.
4 tionality of State laws of this charac-
ter. Fred l. Johnson, Of Fitchburg
Mass, in presenting the situation from
the viewpoint of the manufacturer,
says:
''The movement by the Legislatures
of certain States to prohibit the sale Of
firearms within those States is, beyond
doubt, unconstitutional it is detri-
mental to the business interests of the
States in question, without in any way
restricting the quantity Of firearms pur-
chased and in use; 1t Is intended to de-
prive those who live in rural districts
where police protection Is inadequate,
or wholly lacking, Of the means to pro-
tect themselves, their families and
excellent class Of merchants for, while
the law proscribes the sale Of firearms
by hundreds Of hardware stores in the
States affected, 1t does not prevent
their citizens from buying such arms
elsewhere, and the money thus eXpend-
ed goes, not into the Golfers of the local
merchant, but into those of great busl-
ness houses in other States. Such
result is demoralzing to the trade of
the State in question, and to the fire.
arms manufacturing industry as WELL"

ALFoNso's ISLAND PALACE.
Wedding Present in Bay OF ArosA
TO De Site of Summer Home.

Wedding Present I'm Bay of ArosA
to be Site of Summer Home.
King Alfonso Of Spain is preparing
to enjoy next summer the odd wedding
present that some wealthy Spanish no.
bleman bestowed on him and Queen
Victoria, says the New York Sun. lie
Is having a palace built on the island
Of Cortegada in the Bay of Arosa, op-
posite the port of Carril and the sum
mer resort Of Vlllagarcia, famous for
Its sulphur baths The villa at San
Sebastian, at which he has heretofore
spent good deal Of time each sum
mer, is the property of his mother, and
the new summer home Is designed to
give the youthful couple a place where
they can entertain guests independent
ly.
The island Is about three miles and
a half In circumference. 1t Is diversi-
fed In surface and beautifully wooded,
while In all directions 1t receives cool
Ing breezes and commands splendid
views, varying from the broad Allan
tic to the picturesque shores Of the
bay. Previous to Its purchase for the
king 1t had population of seventy
fisher folk, who inhabited eighteen
dwellings They sold out their rights
to the intending donors, sharing the
desire Of the latter, as they put 1t, to
please their Sovereign, upon the one
condition that the Chapel Of the Incar.
nation, a far-famed shrine to which
pilgrims from all the fishing villages
Of the coast resorted, should remain
untouched and should be always acces.
slble to pilgrims.
The king has placed the building ot
his palace and the beautifying Of the
island In the hands Of the marquis de
Vlana and a Madrid architect, SenoI
Ripolles. The building is to be Of semi
Arab design, following the general lines
Of some Of the most famous parts Of
the Alhambra. The harbor Is also ia

Re-enforced concrete buildings, 100
stories high, towering 1000 feet into
the air, may yet be seen by people now
living, according to prominent New
York engineer and builder. Before
such feat can be accomplished, how
ever, two great obstacles must be over
come. The lack Of adequate fire pro.
lection at such height is one, and
the other Is the imposslbillty OF provid-
Ing elevator service under the present
systems. Even now in thirty-story
buildings the weight of the cables sup
porting the cars is enormous, and build.
ings Of over forty stories would pass
the safety line In this respect.
When, twenty years ago, writer
described mammoth office structure
towering Into the clouds his picture
was but toy for the Imagination. Now
1t Is swiftly approaching a reality.
Architects are at work this moment
rapidly developing plans for substan-
TALLY the same kind of structure told
VI III ulo ldnCllul Story.
'"The 10O-story building is sure to
come" says one New York architect.
1--WE may not be ready for 1t yet, but
the larger and higher buildings we are
certain to have in the near future. The
next stage In the development will be
the fifty and seventy-fve- story build
Ing, constructed Of steel and concrete"
Already the forty-story building has
been reached and passed in the COM
petion Of the Singer building. The
fifty-story goal Is practically here with
the construction Of the Metropolitan
Life building, which, when completed,
will be forty-elght stories high.
Less than a dozen years ago a twen-
ty-story building was world wonder.
Now 1t is Insignificant. The census of
In New York, not taking
into account the Singer building, gives
a total number Of twenty two buildings
more than twenty stories in height, and
4O5 buildings ranging from ten to twens
y stories high.-Popular Mechanic.
