SPORTS AND THEIR CONSEQUENCES.

u
a firm of piano manufa cturers in this
city has just gone into bankruptcy be-
cause as one of the members of the
concern explained, people are buying
automobiles now instead of pianos"
One might conclude from this that there
was no longer music in the air. only
honks and whiffs of gasolene; but the
summer city dweller. with all his win
Gows wide open, knows better.
Some fifteen years ago an oldtime
New York jeweller ascribed his failure
to the bicycle fad in much the same
terms as those employed by the piano
manufacturer. Men and women. com
planned this jeweller, no longer bought
rings and brooches bracelets and
watches. They bought bicycles. At the
same time clothing manufacturers
traced to the wheel a decided decrease
in the demand for articles of formal
wear, such as frock coats. They, how
ever counteracted this influence Of the
sport by designing fetching and often
startling bicycle costumes, a wise and
profitable course pursued by them also

years later the spread of outdoor life
and sports and fads, golf and the motor

not taken seriously. if for no other
reason than that books are the least

one or another industry remains still to
be seen. We may he sure that We shall

New-York tribune., 1910-07-20

From the description of a new machine
by Engineering" Qondon) it appears
that provision has been made for the
study of a special group Of problems in
aviation. It was natural that construct
ors of dirigible balloons and aeroplanes
should attempt to propei their craft with
screws patterned after a device which
has rendered immense service at sea, but
as water is much less elastic than air
it has seemed unlikely that the exact
form of propeller best adapted to work in
the one medium would be altogether
suited to the requirements OF the other.
The testing machine is to be used by the
famous shipbuilders. Vickers, Son &
Maxim, who received an order from the
British government a few months ago
for several military aeroplanes. The
elaborate means adopted for ascertain
ing with what kind of propeller the
terms Of the contract can best be full
filed illustrates the British trait Of thor
oughness. Moreover one member of the
firm. Sir Hiram Maxim, has played a
conspicuous part in the development of
the aeroplane. If. as is credible, the in
ventor himself proposed the adoption of
this remarka BILE instrument of research,
the fact would furnish an interesting as
surance of the quality of the heavier
than-air machines soon to be produced
by him and his business associates.

certainty, while the same number of aero
planes operating against land force would
have the same effect.
Germany, the leader in military progress,
has realized the valuable part that military
aeronautics will play in future warfare, and
has trained a large force of officers and men
as aviators and spent large sums of money
in equipping its southern and western from
tiers with military aeronautic stations and
apparatus, and is now providing its Russian
frontier with the same. France and England
have followed Germanys lead in training
their officers and men and providing aero
nautic material.
In our own army there are only two Off
GERS and few men trained as aviatorS. and
as equipment there are only one aeroplane,
one dirigible. and sever spherical balloons.
The authorities in the War Department
have been alive. to the situation; but un-
able to do anything on account OF the
funds.
The great problem that has vexed man.
kind for thousands of years has been solved
and man has triumphed over another of the
elements. The attention of the world is
attracted to this modern enterprise. Sci
entists and ingenious men are studying the
subject with intense interest. 1t will be ex-
ceedingly interesting to witness the inven-
tions made and the Improvements wrought
in the flying machine within the next few
years. 1t will be found most valuable for
war; yet trust it will be developed and
perfected in such way that it will not only
contribute to the universal peace of the
world, but will become invaluable for the
comfort, welfare, and happiness OF the hui
man race.

worthy observations can be taken from it.
WAR" says Won Moltke, "is the only
science that lays under tribute all other
sciences" All great discoveries and progress
made during the last century have been
utilized in the art of war In fact, nearly
every advance in applied knowledge that
has benefited mankind has been turned to
its destruction. The most potent factors
of modern progress steam, electricity,
chemistry and mechanical engineering
are now extensively utilized in the final
arbitrament of international disputes.
What 1t Will Do in War
THE potentialities of the latest product of
when applied to the art of war, have been
the subject of extended discussions among
military men the world over. Its use will
undoubtedly be dominating factor in the
success of future campaigns. The aeroplane
will play threefold role: to afford COM
manding officers a rapid means of visiting
their lines and comforting with one another;
for scouting and reconnaissance work; and
for offensive destructive operations against
hostile fleets, Notifications, and armies, by
dropping high explosives against the first
two and hand grenades and projectiles
against the troops.
For the cost of the Lion, the most recent
of England's Dreadnoughts, over two thou
sand aeroplanes could be constructed, and
rash indeed would be the fleet commander
who would head his vessels against the coast
of an enemy possessing such a number of
aeroplanes. The moral effect alone would
probably keep the fleet at safe distance
from shore, and, if it did venture in, its de-
struction by high explosives would be almost

~ curious and cOntradlc-
tory ideas with reference to
proper names. Officially they exhibit all
their national conservatism touching the re-
tention of names in some circumstances;
individually they indulge in all manner of
license in the bestowal of names upon their
offspring.
England is one of the freest countries in
the world, a country where the rights of in
dividuals are safeguarded in the fullest
measure; yet in some details those rights
are curiously curtaied. Once an innkeeper
of South Hants wished to alter the name of
his establishment from The Duke of York
to The Panther. In this country the method
would be to take down the old sign and
hang up a new one; but there the case was
different.
The distinguished naval officer who
acted as chairman of the authoritative COM
mittee demanded the reason for so sudden
and violent change. He was informed that
the applicant owned another inn named
The Duke of York in a neighboring town,
and that the identity of names caused some
confusion in business.
This would seem to be satisfactory ex-
cuse; but the chairman held that it was dis
courtesy to the Duke of York to supersede
him by a brute. The application was re-
fused
The host of The Alma. metropolitan inn,
wished to take advantage of a passing wave
of popular interest and to call his hosiery
The Fashoda. Out of regard for French
sensibility permission was CURLY refused.
A similar fate befell the request to change
the name of another inn from The Royal
Oak to The Radstock. In this case the
chairman of the committee took the ground
that Lord Radstock, as an eminent philan-
thropist and Christian man, might object
to the use of his name for a house in which
liquor was sold. This argument carried the
day. Thus, the same authority held it to be
discourteous to philanthropic nobleman to
give his name to licensed house." and
discourteous to the heir to the throne to re-
move his name from a licensed house.

(5) The last group includes forest prod

other soft woods used for woodpulp.

will supply part, at least, of the paper of the
future. Several might be named that are
worthy of serious trial Then the waste
products of agricultural industries are always
available, and these alone would supply raw
material for the paper we annually consume,
many times over. Summing up the evil
dence, it does not seem that there need be
any future scarcity of paper for present want
of few woodpulp substitutes. The real
difficulty will be changing from old to new

against their parents for giving them alb
surd or incongruous names. 1t was most
natural that demure and pretty girl in a
north suburb should feel resentful when she
had to answer to the name of Busybody,
given in honor of the winner of race fifteen
years before. Among the names registered
at Somerset House are Airs and Graces and
Nun Nicer, which were innocently borne by
two little girls who found them most en-
barrassing in after years.
The appalling name of Wellington Wolse-
ley Roberts was borne by young man who,
in disposition and appearance, was anything
but militant, and as little likely to win fame
on the battle field as his predecessors
Arthur Wellesley Wellington Waterloo Cox
and Napoleon the Great Eagar.
However, even these names, inappropri-
ate as they may be, are to be preferred to
Roger the Ass, Anna [sieI Domini Davies and
Boadicea Basher.
To parents of large families the advent of
another child is not always welcome; but it
is scarcely kind to make the unexpected
child bear token of disapproval. 1t must
be rather terrible to 60 through life, for ex-
ample, as Not Wanted James, What An
other, Only Fancy William Brown, or even
as Last of EN- Harper, or Still Another
Hewitt. And yet these are all names which
the foolish caprice of British parents has i'm
posed on innocent children.

FLOWER OF THE FALLS

GROWING in the spray of the great Vic

olus has been discovered and named the
Maid of the Mist.
Four bulbs of this plant, sent to England,
have been induced to sprout and bloom by
virtue of constant spraying in dollhouse.
There the interesting discovery was made
that the petals of the flower were SO arranged
as to form a penthouse to protect stamens
and pistils from the unceasing downpour
to which they would otherwise be subjected
in the native haunts of the plant.
