Mr.. Edison and Concrete Construction

Thomas A. Edison has announced in
the newspapers that he has completed
his plans for building a concrete house
for $1,000, a house which, if made of
stone, would cost between $4,000 and
$50, 900. 1t is said that he has included
in his $1,000 estimate the heating and
plumbing Of the house, as we'll as it's
other features. Builders in New York
are very skeptical as to Mr.. Edison's
ability to accomplish the result he
predicts, and certain it is that none of
them will enter into any contracts with
him upon that basis. The plans of
Mr. Edison call for one-family house
"a by 30 feet the front porch extend
ing eight feet and the back stoop three
feet. 1t is to contain six rooms and
a hath. with a cellar extending under
the entire house. The moulds are so
made as to provide for ample outside
decoration. The whole house will be
of reinforced concrete which includes
the walls, roof, floors. porches, bath
tub and the laundry tubs, the only
wood used in the building being the
doors, door frames, windows and win
dow frames. The inside walls will be
of concrete and there will be no plaster
finish. The surface will be smooth and
Mr.. Edison claims that it may be tint
ed or painted as the owner may de-
the construction of the house and may
be used on as many buildings as de-
sired. According to Mr.. Edison the
great cost of such construction is in
the making of these original moulds
There will he no foundations in the
general sense of the term, but merely
a base of concrete in which the moulds
will rest. Mr.. Edison estimates the
cost of a set of moulds at $25, 900 and
| provide the plant for mixing the con-
crete. At least six sets of moulds will
| be in use at the same time in order to
keep the men and the plant busy. Ac-
| cording to Mr. Edison four days will
be required to set up the mOulds and
he thinks that the liquid concrete can
be poured into them in six hours. The
moulds will remain in place for four
or five days. until the concrete is thor
oughly hardened, and it will require
the best part of another week to re-
move them. Even on this basis of
calculation. a complete house can be
built in a fortnight. Mr.. Edison has
several well known engineers at work
with him now, and extensive expert
ments have been made by them to
test the practicability of Mr.. Edisons
plans. They are equally confident with
Mr.. Edison that the experiment will

The Modern Athlete.

The sporting columns of the daily pa
pers frequently call attention to the big
sums paid present day athletes and
compare them with the remuneration
the athletes of former days received for
the same kind Of work. Baseball stars
now receive fabulous sums for their
work on the diamond and boxers, track
men and professional distance runners,
as we'll as other athletes also receive
great sums far in excess of what SINH
lar athletes of a generation or two ago
ever dreamed of getting. There's a
reason
In other days, when hard contests
We're the result for the most part of the
natural skill or strength of the athlete,
his performance was considered a won
derfnl one if he outstripped the previ-
Gus efforts of competitors and he was
duly honored, but the elaborate train
ing through which the modern athlete
goes was unknown to his predecessors
of two decades or less ago The man
who acquires fame in athletic fields
today is more or less a creature of de-
velopment, rather than of purely ma
tural strength and skill He must have
the fundamental ability-must be sus-
ceptiblc to and capable of development
to be sure, but the records he makes
and the feats he performs are largely
the product of science
The big prices the services of the
athlete now command are not altogeth-
er rewards for his work or for his skill
He must get these prices to pay for the
careful expense of training, to which
ne gives himself up without reserve
usually foregoing all other occupation

prove a success, and it is said that
trial house will be constructed In the
near future. Were any other man imam
Thomas A. Edison to make an an
nouncement of this character, 1t would
be regarded as entirely visionary, ana
doubters are by no means absent at
the present time, but the large meas
ure of success that the great Ameri-
can wizard has attained in his other
lines of enterprise has led the general
public to withhold it's judgment untii
he has had full opportunity to demon
strate the feasibility of his plans. The
outcome of his first attempt at the
actual construction of house VIII De

Our Growing Commence With the
Orient,

San Francisco did itself much credit
and earned the commentator Of the
country in general by its cordial re-
ception to and entertainment Of the
officers and men of the japanese
cruisers that recently visited that
harbor. 1t was a reception at once so
cordial and sincere that it made a
most favorable impression upon the
eddy went far to strengthen the
friendly bonds between the two
countries.
Far different from the spirit of
hospitality shown by the city of San
Francisco was the greeting given the
same officers and men of the japanese
cruisers in the city Of Vancouver, b.
C. 1t is not an easy matter for the
Englishman to unbend or to keep his
innermost feelings from showing in
his conduct Unquestionably, the
people Of Vancouver were not anxious
to receive the japanese war vessels
and as a result the greeting extended
to the visiting officers and men was
decidedly formal and frosty in COM
parison with the hearty reception that
had been accorded them in San
Francisco. In fact, so decidedly cool
was the manner in which they were
officially received that number OF
prominent Englishmen in Vancouver
have protested against the treatment
accorded them, and the comparison
drawn between San Francisco and
Vancouver among the people of Japan
has been decidedly in favor of the
former. While it has been assumed
that England and Japan are allies. as
a matter of fact the closest and most
intimate relations which Japan has
had with any foreign power are and
always have been with the United
States, and never in the his
tory of the two nations were these
relations closer or more cordial than
they are at the present time. The
commercial welfare and progress of
both nations makes it important that
there should be maintained the closest
and most friendly relations between
Them and that the open door to which
Japan is as strongly committed as the
United States, should be the settled
policy both in Manchuria and China.
Years ago, the great American
Secretary of State, William s. Seward.
declared with prophetic vision that
the Pacific, it's islands, and the vast
region beyond were destined to be-
come the worlds great theatre of ac-
ton" Time has amply justified this
prophecy. Today the great market Of
the Orient has largely become the
leading goal of the worlds COM
mercial activity and competition. The
products of the United States already
finding an enormous outlet there, are
annually becoming in greater demand
i'm that section of the world. 1t IS
important that everything possible
should be done to foster and promote
this growing trade which is destined
to mean so much to the industrial
prosperity of our country.

General Sherman and the South.

none has been more consistently Hdlo"
by the people of the South than
General Sherman. Unquestionaply'
this was largely due to the TACT
that, in his great march from
Savannah to the sea, General Sher-
man secured subsistence for his army
from the country through which he
passed The result was broad tran
of desolation and AFFECT want, extend
ing through a large and rich section
of the South. 1t has, however, been
hardly fair to hold General Sherman
personally responsible for this great
ton that it wrought. He himself de-
fined war as hell" and the operations
which he conducted against the south
ern forces were merely a part of a
carefully wrought out and consistent
plan made necessary in the Judgment
of the Federal commanding general by
the grim necessities of war Personally
General Sherman never held any
bitterness toward the people of the
South. He had lived among them and
had many pleasant recollections of his
associations with them. His personal
feeling toward them was kindly and
generous, and if, i'm the conduct of an
active campaign which formed an i'm
pOrtant feature in a general plan for
the overthrow of the Confederacy, he
was obliged to resort to stern mea-
sures, the fact was not in any wise
due to any feeling of personal ami
mostly toward the people of that sec
ton Now that Scrbner's magazine
has published a number of Sherman's
letters written to his family from the
field during the campaign, the people
OF the South are beginning to realize
that their attitude toward this great
Federal commander has not been just.
Writing from point near Marietta,
Ga, Sherman said: "TO realize what
war is, one should follow our tracks.
this moment know the country
swarms with thousands who would
shoot me and thank their God that
they had slain a monster; and yet
have been more kindly disposed to the
people of the South than any general
officer of the whole army
This same spirit is exhibited in
many others of his letters. 1t is true
that General Sherman felt that the
sooner the rebellion could be crushed,
the better it would be for the people of
this country, North and South, and
that he bent every effort to that end
with all the fearless and aggressive
force of his nature. 1t is well, indeed,
that General Shermans letters should
be published, and as a result of such
publication it is pleasing to note 4
softening OF the harsh and unjust
views of him that We're formerly en-
While it is true that General Sherman
was vigorous and forceful military
commander, winning notable success
in his operations in the field, it is
equally true that he had a tender side
for the people Of the South in their
hour of trial and desolation, and that
no federal commander closed the war
with heartier desire that the wounds
of the South should be healed and thai
it should have the speediest possible
return to it's old-time prosperity
