 The legal right of one man to fly over another mans property is prophesied as future enactment of international law hu Na1 L har r. rister, who Is prominent member of the Aero club and British delegate to the in | ternational aeronuatic conference At present." said MT. Wallace, ''by the common law, no one has a right to fly across occupied land The world Is still governed by the ancient Roman law, usque ad coelum Cup to the slSies). That was framed, of course, in days when no one could anticipate the present conquest of the air, and 1t must be amended. It means that every landowner has a right to the air above his land as far up as he 1 chooses to go, and can get an injunction to restrain any one flying across It. "So far, no one has attempted to put the law in force. When man is flying across your land it is too late to get an injunction. After he has flown it Is no use, unless he has done damage which can be assessed. But 1t may happen that landowner adjoining the practice ground

 "In the arrangements which the Aero club is making for securing a practice ground at Dartford it is providing for this contingency by legally obtaining the right to fly across all adjoining lands. One sec tion of the new law of flying must deal with the question of articles dropped from aeroplanes and balloons" Catching fish by telephone Is the latest invention of Norwegian, which is now employed by the fishermen of his nation.
 A microphone which magnifies subma- rine sounds is shut up in a thin water tight steel box and kept in communica ton by metallic wires with a telephone re- ceiver installed on the fishing boat. Each kind of fish gives in the instrument a par ticular sound. The arrival of herring. for example, is signalized by sort of whist ling the codfish announces its arrival in the neighborhood by sort of grunting.
 A lesson in manners has been given in a London drawing room by Chinese lady to a crowd of English society women. Among the guests invited by a prominent London hostess to dinner party was the wife of a Chinese diplomat, and when the ladies had retired to the drawing room the hostess asked her guest if she would be "so sweet as to show her little feet"
 'I shall be delighted to show my feet" replied the oriental guest, If you other ladies will first show me yours. But had no idea that 1t was the custom for Englishwomen to make an exhibition of their feet after dinner"
 Count Mensdorfs unexpected resumption of his post Austrian ambassador to London is interpreted in diplomatic cir cles to indicate that for the present the position of Baron yon Aehrenthal as the Austrian prime minister. is secure
 When Count Mensdorf left London in December it was his purpose to proceed direct to Vienna and deliver to the Elm peror a verbal message from the King of England on the Balkan situation and also expound his own views. The count stopped in Paris. where he met his broth er Count Dietrichstein, who dissuaded him from continuing his proposed journey.
 When Count Mensdorf left London 1t was a well grounded belief that he would not return, but would become the prime minister of his country, succeeding Baron von Aehrenthal. His return to his post here indicates that the little game of diplomacy which he started to play was checkmated.
 "The American man problem puzzles all," says Truth. "The American man is, apparently, objectionable to the American woman, for when the latter Is suffi- ciently rich she generally marries Flu ropean. Though the pick of European men are prepared to marry rich Ameri- can women, the European woman can seldom be induced to marry an Ameri- can.
 "The deficiencies of the American man must be serious, for they appear to rem der him objectionable alike to the women of his own country and of other coun- tries."
