Lansua ge and Aviation.

A pretty little difference has arisen be-
tween the municipality OF Prague and
Count Zeppelin. The count in one Of his
flights. had intended landing in Prague.
The municipality intimated that it would
give the civic fathers much pleasure to
receive the aviator, but it was stipulated
that in all amenities passing between
them the Czech language should be used.
Zeppelin was annoyed at the request,
and politely lntimated TO the council of
the ancient city that he would dispense
with their hospitality. and instead Of
coming to Prague, would descend at the
little village OF Leimeritz The German
papers are very indignant about the In
cident, but on this occasion the boot is
on the other foot. Prague is not Alsace-
Lorraine, and the indignity offered TO the
German language is very different, II
would seem, TO that offered to the
French In. the annexed provinces.

BarreIs would BE Better.

Flour is imported into the Islands OF
Cuba, Santo Domingo, and Porto Rico
in heavy osnaburg sacks Of 200 pounds
each for economic reasons. The first
cost OF the sack to the miller is about
sixteen cents, more or less, while the
value of the secondhand sack to the
baker, or final user Of the contents on

New York. July 2S-Features Of the mar
kets to-day, as on Thursday and yester-
day, were the costly liquidation in the
stock market and the extraordinary inn
provement in the condition of the New
York banks. These contrasting develop
ments appeared in holder contrast. In the
stock market the reaction continued with
but slight and feeble rallies from the
opening to the close Of the session, and
in the late trading there was an utter alb
sence of the rally which is normally ex-
pected at the week end after any such
drastic decline in prices.
Closing prices were at or close to the
low level OF the day, and most of the
active stocks sold at new low prices
for the year. The one that held better
than all the others was American Smelt-
ing and Refining, which broke sharply
after the reduction of the Lead dividend
on Thursday. Short covering. more in
evidence in this stock than in any other,
famed the reports that men in control
of National Lead or associated with them
and controlling also American Smelling
and Refining. had advance knowledge OF
the reduction in dividend for speculative
purposes. There were no new develop
ments to account for the continuance of
the drastic liquidation.
AS the action of the market intensified
the bearishness of spectators and timid
investors. so the bank statement encour-
aged all those who hoped Tor material
Improvement in fundamental conditions.
The banks showed an increase or $12.-
100000 in surplus reserve. a decrease of
SS67, 600 In loans and an increase of Sl4,-
10000 in cash. The surplus reserve now
stands at the extraordinarily high figure
of SAC 500,OO0. which has seldom been
equaled on the corresponding week of
previous years.

With the high ridge north and north
west of the city. inviting indefinite ex-
pansion toward the suburbs, few Wash
ingtonisns can fully realize the difficult
ties which confront the expansion Of the
city of New Orleans The city itself
rests upon low land, many of the streets
being below the surface Of the water OF
the Mississippi
Ten or fifteen years ago New Orleans
installed a most expensive drainage sys-
TEN, which conveyed the sewage and
storm water TO a lew point IN the city
limits whence 1t is pumped up several
feet and discharged into Lake Ponchsr-
train.
VIII Reclaim 10000 Acres.
Now New Orleans is engaged in re-
claiming something like 5000 acres with
in its limits TO allow for the expansion
of the city. This land was virtually
swamp, covered with water a great part
Of the year, and it Is being drained out.
leaving dry ground which will be 1ti-
lized for building purposes in the future.
New Orleans also has gotten along thus
far In its history without suburbs, in the
sense that rHany other cities have them,
where the outlying territory is taken up
and occupied for suburban homes Of
larger OF smaller extent. Now that
progressive city feels the need OF subUr-
ban development and a project has been
started outside the city limits TO drain
about 100000 acres of ground contig-
nous 10 New Orleans to serve for su-
burban residence
State and Private Work.
The work is being carried on partly by
the State and partly by private enter
prise. In the end a large region will be
reclaimed which will admit OF the rapid
expansion of the city in years TO come
These submerged lands are excessive
ly fertile. The soil is so deep and so
rich as to be practically inexhaustfble
In States like Louisiana, where it is pos
sible to grow several crops Of vegetables
in the course of a year. the drainage
proposition is assuming great importance.
Florida is gradually wiping the Ever
glades off the map, and Virginia is clean
ing up the great Dismal swamps. Even
as some of the big deserts Of the West
have disappeared so VIII the bogs and
fens of the South disappear with the
future growth and development Of the
country.

Developing Coal Mines OF Ireland.

Widespread interest is felt in opening
the Mullaghmore colliery In Queens
County. and it is thought that through
the successful operation Of the mine many
others Will again be put into operation
in different parts OF Ireland. Coal was
extensively mined in this county thirty
years ago. but the product is not suitable
for all purposes. and hence fell into dis
use, and the mines were abandoned.
Much OF the coal is devoid Of sulphur.
and for that reason became unpopular.
Experts now say that IT can be used to
good advantage for certain purposes. for
which 1t will prove vastly more econom-
ical than imported coal.
