The Advance of Civilization

The warfare of the future will be
conducted by the means of aero
planes, is the opinion of Curtis, the
aviator who won the long distance
flight recently. Curtis says that
enough dynamite can be dropped
into a city from above to completely
annihIlate it, and that it is only a
question of time until all nations
accept this method.
This reminds one of the story of
the man who stood on a New York
street corner a few years hence. He
was asked by a policeman to move
on and had just lodged a street car,
to get into the path of a passing
automobile. AS he barely escaped
this with his life, an airship shot
down from above, and the only
avenue Of escape seemed to lay
through the manhole in the pave
ment at his feet. So he dropped
through this, only to fall in front
of a passing subway train.

MILLER'S NEED
FOR NEW WELL
Special City Election Tomorrow
To Vote On $4,000 Bonds

Miller needs a second artesian
well.
This proposition will be voted upon
at a special election Friday June 10th
and ii is important that the citizens
of Miller come out and express their
approval with their vote. A city's
water supply is a most important
issue, both for daily consumption
and fire protection. and just at this
stage of her growth. Miller cannot
afford to do without an ample supply
too for irrigating purposes.
The old well is nearly ten years
old. and while it is still giving good
service, it is not large enough to
meet the increased demand that the
growth of the city brings. 1t is al
ready taxed to It's limit and there
fore the. Necessary extensions of
mains to the newer parts of the city
cannot be made, and they are with
out any fire rg& Rtion.
The cit' r wee col decided that a
fund of $6,Jcs eots necessary for the
needed improvements. and SO called
the special election to vote on issuing
bonds to that amount, for ten years
4
at = per cent. The council plans to
put down a AZ inch we'll at a cost of
about $4,000, to be connected with
the new six inch main at the school
grounds, and to expend the rest of
the sum for new mains, provided the
election results favorably tomor-
row.

ways leading out into the country

would show better roads in q short

The Books We Read

An expert statistician Of Chicago
has taken that city as a representa-,
tive one of America and has made q
thorough inquiry as to what books
are most read there. and the result
is as surprising as it is gratifying
in this age Of the popular and light
novels. The report reads as fellows;
las it is well known the one book
which surpasses all other best sci.
lers" is the Bible and it is computed
that there are now no less than 200,-
600 copies in circulation here.
Shakespeare ranks next to the Bible
in general popularity although of
course a long way behind in general
circulation. Another surprising fact
brought out, in view of the general
opinion as to the unpopularity of
poetry is that none of the popular
novelists, except on their newest
books, equal the vogue of the stand
ard poets. Next to Shakespeare the
most read poems in America as
shown by this record are those of
Longfellow, with Whittier close be-
hind in popularity.
OF single works the standard
translation of Omar Khayyam is
most in demand. Among general
authors the one most widely read
-aSxtts Shakespeare is the late la.
mented Mark Twain. These figures
of course take no account 81

TALK OF HIRING T. R. TO
ADVISE CHINESE REGENT
orientaIs Think Colonel Would
Like Job of Boss

NEW YORK, Sept. 1.-The news
tat Col. Roosevelt may be asked 10
accept the post of advisor to the re-
gent of China, at very large salary,
was current in Peking a month ago
according to DR.. William Edgar Glel,
who has just returned to America al
ter a wear passed in studying the po-
litical situation in China.
DR.. Giel left Peking August l, and at
that time, he says, it was current gos-
sin in political circles that the palace
authorities were considering prop
.osition to engage Col. Roosevelt to
assist in plotting the countr. hrough
a rather stormy period.
Many of the diplomats, DR.. Giel de-
clares. were confident the offer would
anpeal to the American former presi-
dent, and might induce him to aban-
don the fight against the bosses here
to become a boss himself in the
F'lowery Kingdom.
Speaking of conditions Or. Glel
said there was an anti-baby move
ment in China, the leaders being OPP
posed to the rule of the child emperor.
This movement, he said, If 1T grew
rapidly, as many thought 1t would,
might result in revolution.
China is friendly to this country, ne
said, and the present leaders in that
country regard President Taft highly.
