EVERYTHING WILL MOVE
IN CITY OF THE FUTURE.
Streets Will Be Covered and Housetops
AeroPIane Garages.

At the international town planning
conference in London, Eugene Henard,
municipal architect of Paris, gave q
forecast of what the ideal city of the
future will be like. He said in sub
stance:
Light and energy will be conveyed
by electricity. Petrol and oxygen will
supply heat. Liquid air will keep up
refrigeration in every harder. In ad-
dition to heat radiators, there will be
cold radiators, which will enable each
house to be kept at the required tenn
perature.
by this power 1t will be possible to
provide in each house one or more
health chambers closed by close fitting
double windows and doors in which
the overworked occupant on his return
from town win ind all the hygienic
conditions which now he can obtain
only by taking an annual holiday.
"Glass verandas Of various shapes
Joined together and with covered foot
paths, according to standard models,
win shelter pedestrians against rain,
and the normal height of buildings
will be exactly the width OF the street
The roofs OF houses viii be platforms
upon which small flower beds and YER
dant strawberries could be laid ont,
as they would be the landing stages
for aeroplanes.
when this progress shall have been
accomplished the physiognomy of
towns will be changed. All terraces
viii have become landing stages for
flying automobiles. Aviators will be
able to fly from one terrace to an
other, starting and landing as they
please. The natural consequence of
this new state Of things VIII be that
each building win have to be furnish
ed with big elevators capable Of rails
ing machines when they are ready 70
start and taking them back to the
garage on their return. Houses of
this description viii also be used to
house motorcars.
Finally the town OF the future win
be traversed by large radiating thor
cughfares, occupied partly by raised
platforms continually moving, which
will insure rapid communication be-
tween the different zones These plat
forms win be terminated by large re-
vofving crossways at the intersection
of the main roads. Large parks and
flower gardens as residence and pleas
ure resorts win be laid out In various
parts Of the town."

SO many OF the ills OF women are due
to habitual constipation, probably be-
cause of their false nodesty on the sub

Boys Fall Over Embankment. -
Floyd Ketner, aged IL, 1907 Twenty
ninth street, was badly bruised yester-
day in running off an 1S-foot embank-
ment on Twenty-seventh street. where
the Tri-City Railway company is max
ing cut. He was riding his bicycle
along the edge of the embankment
when he slipped and went over. Ray
Forber, lad of the same age. who
was with Ketner, in leaning over the
edge of the embankment to see what
had become of his friend, slipped and
fell over, breaking his leg. His home
is at 1888 Eleventh avenue.

self badly. He was seen falling by
other workmen and the ambulance
was hurried to the scene. He was re-
moved to his home at 1918 Twelfth
avenue, where his injuries were at
tended to. Witnesses of the accident
state 1t is miracle that Dunlavy did
not break his neck in the fall, as he
toppled over head first. He will be
confined to his bed for some time.
Students Fly AeropIane.-Aeropla
students in the manual training
school have come to the conclusion
that the way leading to success is
long and hard when it comes to con-
structing a successful flying machine.
The model ordered from New York
by Henry Hanson, a student in the
school, arrived in due time, proved
to be a Bleriot, two feet in length,
and parts were finally assembled in
pretty good shape. But adjustment
of planes, experiments with gear
ing, oiling the propeller and numer-
Gus other tasks prevented an actual
test until now. The rubber band
used in lieu of a motor was twisted
round and round, then suddenly let
go, with result that the Bleriot &C
tually rose in the air and flew a few
feet. The single fight served to
show that further adjusting of
planes, also some sort of gearing,
will be necessary before the model
can be coaxed to make a successful
flight.

Reed, when arraigned in police court,
told Magistrate Roddewig that he
lived in Milwaukee, where he had a
father and an uncle. He gave the
names and addresses of both and

Il. B. Parker founded upon the
theme suggested in the song by
Chas. K. Harris of the same title,
namely Coast Aside" The pla'
handles an old subject in a widely
different manner than that of its
predecessors, and although new
this season, it has already caused
a great amount of comment and
discussion, having been the sub

ii the same class with "The Lion

much needed improvement, as the
waiting room capacity at present

other improvement much needed is
more platform room for handling
