FIRST WIRE BRIDGE IN THE
 UNITED STATES.

In his history of Philadelphia ussD Thompson Westcott says that the first wire suspension bridge in the United States. if not in the world, was thrown across the Schuylkill river, near the Falls of Schuylkill. in Philadelphia, in 1916. Its history is as follows: In 1909 Robert Kennedy and Conrad Carpenter built a chain bridge at the, Falls of SchuylkilI. which broke down in 1911. Josiah White and ErskIne Hazard. aft erward prominent as the pioneers in the anthracite coal trisde of Pennsyl- vania. had erected a rolling mill and wire factory in the neighborhood. and after the bridge fell they formed a new company and another chain bridge was constructed in April. 1t11. but this. new bridge. in turn. gave way in 1916. White 6 Hazard then swung wire suspension bridge across the river from an upper window of their factory tn some large trees on the west bank. steps leading from tie trees to the grohnd.

F|REMEM DECIDE 10
 ERECT MONUMENT
Win Place Handsome Structure Upor
 Departments Cemetery Lot.

By a practically unanimous vote. the Phoenix fire department. at a spe- cial meeting held last evening. decided to accept plans for the proposed mon uilent upon the lot recently purchased in the Knights of Pythias cemece' Y. Five sets of plans had been submitted but those of Contractor Ed keithline seemed to meet with greatest popular favor and it was voted that they be accepted and that he be awarded the contract for the erection of the mon- ument
 The plans of Contractor keithline call for a structure thirty feet high. standing upon base fifteen feet square, the whole representative of a fire-house tower. Surmounting the tower will be three hundred pound bell which it is designed shall be tolled upon the occasion of the funeral of any deceased member of the depart ment
 The base of the monument will be constructed of solid cement. rising eight inches above the ground line. The structure proper will be about eight feet square and so constructed as to permit bell cord to be run up inside from the base to the bell at the top.
 Four squares of Tennesse marble will adorn the lower portion of the monument. providing a suitable place for inscriptions setting forth the his tory of the department and giving the names of the present officers of the organiZation The names of deceased members of the department will not appear upon the monument. but will be inscribed upon individual head stones erected at each grave.
 At last nights meeting the matter of surmounting the monument with a flag pole was discussed at some length and was finally voted down. The es innate submitted by Contractor Keith line names the sum of s985 as the price of construction. It is expec.sI that work of construction will be be- gun at once.

FINANCE AND COMMERCE

New York. May s.-The stock market went through many variations of speculative temper today and showed d feeling of hesitation in its moods un- til the firmness of the final advances Business in London had gotten we'll under way before the opening here. giving time to demonstrate the feeling of confidence there in the ability to resist the depression of the king of England's death. In the financial mar ket the depression was due to the opin- ion formed over the Sunday interval that something like truce would be adopted in the bitter political contest being waged over legislative questions affecting. the British government. A postponement. it was felt, would do much to bring irregularity to the financial markets.
 Large importance was attached to the government report on the next May condition of wheat as a factor in spring openings. The first reaction in stocks from the reflected London strength was due to advance fears of a poor re- port. Selling by western warehouses

 Contrary movements were shown in some prominent individual stocks St. Paul suffered from the withholding of definite official announcement of the bond sales in Paris, the result being to arouse a fear of a hitch in the busi- ness.

CHANGING NOTES OF BIRDS.
Their Varying Calls in Sunshine and
 Storm.

One 1f the most interesting features in the study of bird life is to note their varying calls in the chan.ins circumstances of sunshine and storm
 The freqnent snowfalls of the recent winter have often been hera' 'ued bV the mournful ''cluck. chuck" of the blackbirds as they flocked around the doors looking for the crumbs that GUS tom had led them 10 expect. The mavis is mostly mute during a storm. and tells his tale of woe more by his manner than by his voice. His note. however. is the first to welcome change to warmer weather.
 The stormcock. by which is meant the blue felt of fieldfare. does not f-euuent the habitatiOn of man. hut there is no more certain sign of the approach of severe weather than flock of these birds flying southward. Their note is an ominOus chuck, chuck" and but for that they would often pass unnoticed oves Hcad.
 The sKyiark also passed south ut tering timid. twittering note. which will later give place to gay burst of song. The stariings flock greedily to wherever food is to be found. he it in the field or homestead The first bIi,k of warm sunshine. however. sees them perched on the caves vibrating their wings in a ma.ir.ar no other tird loes and initiating with an air of intense satisfaction the call notes of a host of other birds.
 The sparrows which robbed the far mer in the autumn flock downward in winter. and their cheerless twitter on the housetops bears faint resemblance to their noisy clamor in the cornfie;d. The robin seeks his dole with an air of ,niet confidence and sometimes re- wards us with burst of song quite out of keeping with his surroundings. The blue tits have no voice to say they are hungry, though their actions show it. but their spring note may be heard in the woodlands. when they forsake our doors for the field and hedgerow. Scotsman

PRESIDENT TAFT'S MESSAGE.

Among the most important rec
concentrations by President Taft
in his second message to Con-
gress are these:
He declares it is time to stop
legislating with reference to re-
gulation of corporations and to
witness the effect of a vigorous
execution of the laws already on
the statute books. He believes
the activities of the Government
in addition to the enforcement of
the laws, should be directed to-
ward economy of ADMINISTRATION,
the enlargement of opportunities
for foreign trade and the
strengthening of confidence of
capital in domestic investment.
He strongly recommends some
form of ship subsidy to increase
American shipping, especially,
to South America.
He urges commissions for
quasi-legislative work, suggest
ing commissions of experts to
aid Congress and the executive
in handling the tariff, rivers and
harbors, public buildings and
waterways.
He defends the Aldrich-Payne
tariff bill; says he will make no
recommendation of tariff legis-
lation until the new Congress
convenes; urges that the Tariff
Board be made permanent,
vigorously opposes another gen.
eral revision, suggesting that
future revision be made sched-
ule by schedule.
The Panama canal should by
all means be fortified. An ap-
preparation of S19, OOO,O is re-
commended for this purpose.
Toll of 81 per net ton should be
charged.
There must be no more pork
barrel" methods in river and
harbor and public buildings bills.
In the past Congress has appro-
priated too much for buildings
The Prince George's enquirer and southern Maryland advertiser., 1910-12-09

not needed and not enough for
buildings badly needed.
Recommendations for anti
Injunction and Federal incorpo-
ration laws are renewed.
1t is proposed that second-class
mail rates shall be readjusted so
as to charge magazines a much
higher rate on their advertising
sections.
There should be more officers
for the army. The Engineer
Corps should be increased by 60.
Strong representations are
made for the establishment of g
new banking and currency
system.
Two new battleships and
several auxiliary vessels are
urged for the navy.
A Bureau of Health should be
established.
He urges the extension of the
civil service principal to the diplo'
matte and consular corps and the
acquisition by the Government
of residences and offices for its
diplomatic officers.
That Congress give some fitting
recognition of the polar dis.
coveries of Commander Robert
E. Peary is recommended. The
Secretary Of the Navy suggests
that Peary be made a rear ad.

MARYLAND's BEST CROPS

The lecture train, otherwise
known as the Farmers Institute,
that is this week making a pro-
gressive tour through the counties
of Southern Maryland, has been
attracting audiences of farmers
all along the route, says the
Baltimore American. The advice
that is being given is generally
based upon results that have been
actually accomplished. An agri-
cultural theory is not generally
impressive, unless the man with
the theory can show that what
he says should be accomplished.
The lecturers accompanying the
Institute on Wheels seem to
be of the kind that have been up
against farming difficulties and
who are, therefore, competent
to talk of the farming situation
as it really is.
The advice is various when it
comes to pointing out the best
money-producing crop for the
Southern Maryland farmer to
grow. In fact, there is no one
"best crop" for Southern Mary
land or any other section Of the
state. Pretty much any one OF
a dozen different varieties of
farm industry may be made a
best money-yielder. There is
room for genius and special
aptitude in farming, as in every
other art, trade or calling.
While Director Hill has been
showing that it is good for farm
ers of the section to stick to to-
bacco as the main crop, other
lecturers have demonstrated
that large profits can be obtained
from growing poultry, live stock,
fruits, garden vegetables and
other foodstufs.
1t seems to be generally agreed
that a greater variation in the
farming industry in the Southern
Maryland counties is practicable
and would result in a higher
average of farming prosperity.
1t is generally possible that a
half-dozen different kinds of
enterprise can be carried for
ward on a farm without inter-
ference one with another.
Farming operations, upon the
whole, however, will always be
in relative proportion to the
organizing ability and patient
energy of the man who is man
aging the enterprise. It is the
man behind the business that
counts in farming as in every
thing else.
