Sidings on Limited Areas.

THE present law authorizes the con-
truction of railroad sidings on a limited
area contiguous to the railroad termi-
nal structures and tracks. The Com
missioners have given careful consid-
|eration as to whether this area is ample
to care for the business of the city and
permit of it's economical handling, and
are convinced that an enlargement of
the area on which railroad sidings
may be constructed would be in the
public interest. AS conditions are at
present a monopoly value attaches to
the land upon which railroad sidings
may be constructed, showing that there
Is demand for more land of this
character than is now available
Furthermore, conditions In the sec
ton under consideration are such as to
lead the Commissioners to believe that
mo esthetic or other consideration would
dictate a refusal of the permission
sought to construct the railroad siding
under present consideration, If suitable
restrictions be introduced"

Reply to Objections.

One of the objections made at the hear
ing was that the Commissioners would be
spelling coming street by allowing an
overhead construction to be placed across
LIST street. The plea was made that LIST
street could be kept a residence street
in the future. The Commissioners take
pains to set forth their views on that
subject:
THE Commissioners believe that the ul-
innate development of this square will be
along lines Of business enterprise, with
storehOuses. warehouses. ETC., owing to it's
location in the proximity of the railroad,
and that no residences will be located on
the square, except perhaps along North
Capitol street between l. and NJ streets.
First street, across which it is proposed
to locate this siding, is practically devoted
to business purposes, and has been paved
with granite block in order to permit of
heavy hauling. All along this street from
X street to Florida avenue buildings de-
voted to business purposes have been
erected, and there are practically no resi-
dences on this length of the street.

FAVOR OVERHEAD SIDING
BILL BEFORE CONGRESS AP-
PROVED BY COMMISSIONERS.
Construction to Connect Warehouse
With Railway Tracks Near
LIST Street Northeast.

Because the Commissioners believe that
the future development of the square
bounded by North Capitol, L, NJ and LIST
streets northeast will be along business
lines, they have reported favorably on
the bill in Congress which would allow
an overhead construction of a siding as
connection between a warehouse on the
block and the railroad tracks near 1st
street Recently a hearing was held on
this matter. residents and property own
ers protesting that the overhead con-
struction asked for would interfere with
the estheticS of the section; would be
an annoyance to the Sibley Hospital. and
Was generally regarded as undesirable.
Former Gov. Claude Swanson of Virginia
argued for the bill. and William NICK.
Clayton was the attorney for the pro-
testing property holders.
The Commissioners believe the siding
should not be extended farther west
across list street northeast than a point
go feet east of the east line of North
Capitol street. This restriction is sug-
gested with a view to protecting from
possible embarrassment the occupants OF
dwellings and other buildings located on
North Capitol street. With this restric-
ton added. large building will interpOse
between the west end of the siding and
North Capitol street.

slowly back to consciousness, and II
took weeks Of Jennie's nursing be-
fore he could move.
Peter had escaped with nothing
worse than broken arm and Bills

Il suppose it's Jail for mine" he
said grimly one morning. He knew
little of law.

lot OF thinking while lying there
helpless, witnessing the simple home
lie or these people, which called
forth unselfishness, forbearance and
self-sacrifice, qualities somewhat over
looked In his own self-indulgent, lux

an actual reality was a shocking nov
city.
1T was only by the mercy of God

change the subject.
Mercy" to him who save for his
idolized child had shown little of it
to man or beast. eff he had received
the justice he rated so highly" He
cringed inwardly.
Peter" he said, impulsively,
Forget that night. But I can't take
you back. I'll pay you we'll for my

Through his bandaged head buzzed
Hazels lesson over and over.
The quality of mercy is not

it.

And what's more if you'll study up

WISE WORDS.

Important men who really aren't
are the most anxious to tell you all
about it.
The more money a man could in
her1t the more he could act as if he
made it by his brains.
A girl gets so excited about being
engaged she forgets what a good time
she had before she was.
Some men are such natural-born
liars they will pretend they would
rather go to a church fair than a.
prize-fight.
A woman never gets so fat that she
will stop sneering about how other
women can't get anything to fit their
figures.
The way woman fools a man is
making him think he's doing it to
her.
You DOM have to explain a COM
pliment to woman the way you do
the constitution.
A useful thing about spelling is
having stenographer who knows
how to do it for you.
There's no excuse ever invented
for coming home late that man
hasn't worn threadbare before he's
been married three years.
It's so natural to lie it's astonish-
ing how few people do it we'll
The more fun man thinks he can
have being out nights the more his
wife knows she can't.
Insane asylums are all places where
everybody inside thinks everybody
is crazy.
The way for a man to make a. girl
stop running away from him is for
him to stop chasing her.

This is the largest engine that Cur
tlss has yet built, and marks his dis
carding of the air-cooled tyne for the
water-cooling system.
Under the framework to which the
front wheel is attached Curtiss, be-
fore his flight, affixed a silk air-bag
whose top was piece of finely select
ed spruce reinforced by a strip of rub

his flight.
New York City.-The aeroplane
would not endanger New York in the
event OF war, in the opinion of Brig
adier-General Walter Howe, com
manding the Department of the East,
with headquarters on Governors ISL
and. General Howe pointed out that
there is no telling what the aeroplane
or the future might do, and wished it
understood that his opinion applied
to the aeroplane as it is. High in the
air and travelling at a great speed.
General Howe said the aviator would
md his task very hard one If he at
tempted to drop explosives on vessels
or forts. If he descended to an alti-
tude where he could drop his explo-
slVes with any degree of accuracy, the
land forces would wreck his machine
with shrapnel. General Howe re-
sponded to question put by a re-
porter, the question being what, in
MS opinion, was the military lesson
to be drawn from the Curtiss flight
from Albany.
In my opinion" General Howe
said, the only military lesson Is that
there Will come time when the aero
plane will be of great value as an
agent or warfare. This is shown bv
the fact that two years ago none of
us believed that the development OF
the aeroplane on a scale such as was
shown by the Curtiss flight was posi-
Bile. When we remember this we can
only conjecture how great will be the
progress in the development the next
few years will bring.
AT the present time the aviator in
an aeroplane may be able to carry dy-
1amite or other high explosive. but.
owing to the height at which he |
would fly, / do not think his presence
would endanger to any appreciable
extent vessels or Notifications, or
wen cities and towns, above which he
lew. If he flew high he would prob
IDLY have hard time hitting us.
While If he came low we would have
'ery little trouble in getting his
ange."
General Howe expressed the opin-
on that the Government would not
ngage extensively in the develop
nent OF the aeroplane, but would
ontinue as in the past, to leave that
argely in the hands of individuals.

Royal Motor Cars.

King Edwards motor cars did not
bear number plates. Those of the
German royal family are recognized
by their warning signals. They alone
may use the three noted horns.
THE cars used by the German EN-
peror and Empress have their ap-
proach heralded by three noted horns
and those Of the royal princes by two
noted horns. No infringement of this
prero gative by ordinary motorists is
tolerated
''The fact that the royal cars, both
in England and in Germany, may so
easily be distinguished is an indica-
ton of the confidence which exists
between the monarchs and their re-
spective peoples" says the Gentle
woman. I'm less happier times it
would have been counting danger to
have carried such marks of distinc-
ton, and even now in less fortunate
lands the rulers dare not travel 50

CURTISS CRAFT WAS SMALLEST EVER Used,
Bpane Measures Only 80 Ait and From Side to sd
Weight Only 1904 PoundsFify HORSEPOWER WaterCooed Motor
Drives Seven-Foo Propeller at 1000 Revolutions Minute

New York City.-The machine will
which Glenn H. Curtiss made hi:
flight from Albany to New York is no
only the smallest ever employed in ar
important aerial trip, but aviators say
is the smallest which ever has beer
utilized in cross-country journey.
1t is what is known az the biplane
type. 1t measures from extreme front
to extreme rear just thirty feet one
inch, and it is thirty feet wide The
two planes, which are four and one
half feet apart, are also four and one
half feet wide. They are made of the
fine rubber-silk cloth which is Cap
tain Thomas Baldwins contribution
to aviation.
The planes and wings of the Cur
tlss machine are concave but rigid, in
which they differ from the Wright
machine in that it's wings may be
warped through lever controls oper-
ated by the rider. Instead of warp
ing his wing tips Curtiss employs an
aileron on each side of the machine.
These ailerons are four feet long and
two and one-half feet wide, and are
fastened at each end of the machine
TO two of the upright rods at the front
edges OF the planes. The uses to
which these ailerons are put are id.n-
t1cal with those accorded by the warp
ing wings of the Wright machine
BY system of wires and pulleys,
acting on the rear edges of the allie
rons (and on the Wright machine on
the rear of the wings), the aileron on
one side is pulled up when the other
tc 1oI
sary to give stability and prevent
drift and overturning. If, in straight
away flight, for instance, the aero
plane drops toward the right, the de-
gree of the angle of incidence of that
side of the planes is increased, there
by adding to the resistance of the air
OF that side, which tends to make that
end of the machine rise, and the an
gle of incidence of the upward end is
decreased, pulling it down and bring
ing the aeroplane back to a normal
position.
The elevating plane or denector ut
the front of the machine which Cur
tlss used Is larger than any he hith-
erto has employed. 1t measures about
two feet more in width than the one
he had on his Governors Island June
Bug type of biplane. The rear rud-
der is OF the customary Curtiss man
ufacture, consisting of vertical and
a horizontal plane which intersect
each other at the centre lines.
At the very centre of the lower
plane and on a strong wooden bed Is
the eight-cylinder, V-type, fifty-horse |
power motor, which drives the single
Seven-foot propeller at a thousand |
revolutions per minute. This exerts
! 350-pound pressure on the air, and
thereby propels the machine The
cylinders, which are cast singly, and
ire water jacketed to an extent rath-
9r less than is the custom with auto
mobile cylinders, are square, nieasur-
ng four by four inches. They are

,istons.
