DISTANCES SEEM TO SHORTEN
Thing That Struck New Yorker on His Latest Visit to Old Home.

The thing that struck me this tir9e," said New Yorker who had just made a little visit to the town in which he was born, was the short ness of the distances in the old place.
 q remember that when I first used to go back the buildings there that had seemed big to me in my youth grad ually grew small. but this time the dis tance had dwindle1 remarkably, too
 The railroad station there is cn the edge of the town and you take a street car to ride to the business cen ter. That used to seem to me to be quite ride; but this time we got there before I knew it.
 What!' I said, you don't mean we've got to Blank street?'
 :" Yes. here We are. said the old home friend. and so we were.
 sYou see. the distances were shrink ing now, as the buildings had already done; and friendly aad pleasant as the old town seemed-and it's steadily growing, too and is a bigger place than eyer-still it seemed smaller and smaller to one whose later and now fixed impressions were of the big buildings and the big distances of the big town of New York"

IN The early years of the nineteenth

Concrete Barqes.

Re-enforced concrete barges and
pontoons of considerable size have
been in use fer some time in Italy and
have proved SO satisfactory that the
Italian government has contracted
for several large barges for use in
harbor work.
The first of these boats is of sufi.
clent size and has been in use long
enough to furnish test of its utility.
1t is a double pontoon,. built in 1897
sixty-seven feet long and twenty-sey.
en- feet Out-to-out of the two rarts,
on which is built boathouse for the
Rome Rowing Club. In 1905 the ta,.

$50 tons burden. fifty-seven feet 1ony
and of ei2hteeE-fcot beam. This waS
first put upon the harbor work ne,r

The Iguria was SO successful that
the government built another 1OO-ton
barge, on the model of which four
others are now under contract. In

FEED;Mc tn As--..~o TGn?4P.N.
sustenance Provided for Turtle
That Zee mss t. Eat OF its
CWn Accord.

There are some tlrtles that dom
feed well when FIRST brought into
captivity, and they have to be made
to feed or they will die. Among such
turtles is the diamond back terra
pin
There was received at the Aquarium
on December 80 last, an albino dia
mond back terrapin, specimen OF
ur1Usul interest because Of the rarity
OF albinism among turtles. Its top
she'll measured ~ inches in length,
and it was perfect albino in shell,
| head, feet ard skin. lacking however
the pink eyes usual in albinos. This
turtle came from the salt marshes
Of Texas
For some weeks after it was receiv-
ed at the Aquarium the albino terra
pin declined to feed, and then to
preserve it and to get it where it
could be more conveniently handled
1t was removed from the exhibition
tank on the floor where it had been
shown to the Aquariums laboratory
and its feeling by compulsion begun,
as it is still continued three times a
week, in this manner:
The terrapin's powerful little jaws
are prded open with a stick and then
there is placed in its mouth little
kil,iefsh OF about an inch or an inch
and half in length, which is gently
tucked down the turtles throat until
all but the tip of the little fish's tail
is within the turtles jaws. At this
stage OF the feeding the terrapin ex.
erts itself and swallows the fish.
A.: each meal there are fed to the
albino terrapin in this way three Kill
HeHsh. and under this treatment the
tercapin is regaining strength and-im-
proving in condition. 1t moves about
freely and has become quite tame, as
turtles not uncommonl~ do; and it
is likely that it will come in time to
feed Of its own accord, which is also |
not an unusual experience with turtles /
that decline to feed at first.-New

Flat Wheels Explained.

There is a good reason WHY tho
wheels OF an electric or steam train
must never be locked, and that is
the fact that a small amount of slid.
