JUMPING THE slLLRoARDs.

According to story from Chicago,
there is war Between circus owners
and the billboard association. Higher
rates for billboard space is said to be
the tbne of contention, and refusing
to come across, the circus owners. il
is said, have organized a little associ-
alton of their own, designed to resist
raise in poster tariff. 1t is very like
ly tlat the circus men will have to
dip that flag. in spite of their bold
front. The face of this country is
amazingly disfgured with the flaring
poster advertisements which have in
vaded every part of this so-called war
between these two interests is that
the circus blazed the way for the gen
eral use of the billboard, and now il
has found that a wiper" has been
warmed i'll its tinsel covered bosom
and the said wiper has sting not

A SEVERE JOLT FOR PRoHlsl.
ION.

Local option OF liquor regulation is
to be the law in Alabama, after TWO
years Of nominal prohieition- A To-
cal option measure passed the douse
Of representatives Of the Alabama
legislature Thu sday. and IT is ex
pected that it will pass the senate
without delay, and become the law OF
the state within few months.
This return to a reasonable method
Of controlling the traffic in liquor
for It is not intended that there shall
be wide open sale any more than
there shall be farce Of prohf ition
is the most significant illustration OF
the waning OF the extreme sentiment
that has splashed prohibition laws
upon the statute books Of a number OF
states. especially in the south, in the
past few years. Alabama was the
most recent to adopt a prohibition
law, and it is the first to repeal it,
Probably the passage of the prohibi.
ton act by the Alabama Legislature
two years ago marked the high tide
Of the movement in the south, as the
repeal of the law signifies the reces-
sion of the wave.
The people of Alaaama adopted pro
hibition in haste and have repented
at leisure The law has been openly
violated, and in some communities en-
tirely ignored. In Georgia. which pre-
ceded Alabama by year in the adop-
ton OF prohibition law. after. even
ihriefer consideration, the law has
been even more openly houted, per
haps, than in its neighboring state In
some cities of Georgia ble visitor can
find no evidences whatsoever Of any
prohibitory liquor law, and the people
seem to be utterly uneoncerned with
the prescription. It is positively evil
that such conditions should be sane
toned ny authority. yet ii is not pos
sible to end them by any system of
enforcement, when the disposition Of
the people is against such enforce
ment. The only practicable and rea-
sonable method of controlling the traf-
tic in liquor is to enact such laws as
will have the sympathy and command
the support of the people against
whom they are directed. and this is
possible under local option. Whereby
the people of different communities
may choose for themselves the sys-
tenn of control they viii put into eff
feet. Prohibition adopted in these
circumstances may be made reason
ably effective and not otherwise, and
prohibition so effected should alone
te accounted by the prohibitionists
worth establishing. Alabama has done
very sane thing in supplanting pro
hibition with local option, and its ex
ample is likely to be followed by the
other states.

THE FIRST CLCc.-.
They Were Regarded With Awe. and
One at Milan Was Really q
Wonder of Mechanism

It was. we are told. in 1909 that the
first clock known to the world was
placed in the tower of San EustorgiO
in Milan
The greatest establishment and ad.
miratiOn were manifested by crowds
who hocked TO see the timepiece In
1914 a clock was installed in the pal
ace Of the mobiles at Padua. This was
a wonder Of mechanism indeed. for
besides indicating the hours it showed
the course Of the sun, the revolutions
Of the planets. the various phases Of
the moon, the months and the fetes
of the year.
The period Of the evolution from the
clock to the watch was seventy-one
years-not so very long, all things con
sidered-and the record of the first
watch is $780, A half century later
an alarm clock made its appearance.
This, we are told, was looked upon
by the people of that age as "un in
strument prodigieux."
The fortunate possessor Of this clock
was Andrea Alciato, a councillor of
Milan. The chroniclers have placed
on record that this clock sounded a
bell at a stated hour, and at the same
time a little wax candle was lighted
automatically. How this was done we
are not told. but it must not be over
looked that until about seventy years
ago we had no means Of obtaining a
light other than the tinder box, so
that the Milanese must have been cen

RESERVE HORSES FOR WAR.
SwitzerIand's Remarkable Method OF
Preparing For Rapid Mobiliza-
ton OF Her Troops.

In Switzerland tie state is part OWL
sr Of horses used by reserves 1t pur-
chases a remOunt at three and half
years old. and the soldier pays half
the cost Of the horse to the govern
ment, together with the difference be-
tween its cost and the price that the
horse fetckes at auction. for all horses
are sold by auction to the men.
After every year of training the gov
eminent refunds one-tenth of the orig
Inal half cost to the man. and at the
end Of ten years the horse becomes
the absolute property Of the soldier.
In this manner the soldier is not only
always we'll mounted, but as he keeps
his horse with him at his home his
mobilization problem is Of the simplest
nature.
The average price Of these Swiss
troop horses is about f45, says Baily's
Magazine, and as most of these horses
are imported from Ireland and north
Germany their price is considerably
higher than it would be In Great Brit
ain. Thus the state secures the serv-
ices Of a horse for an annual outlay
Of about "a los. But there are certain
other expenses which must be includ-
ed IN this estimate, such as the cost of
etc, which raises the total cost of
horses for the Swiss government to
about fS 12s. a year.

ROADS IN CHINA.
They Are Narrow and Crooked and
Edged With bitches.

They Are Narrow and Crooked and
Edged With bitches.
The Chinese road is private prop
erty, a strip taken from somebody's S
land. This is done much against the
will Of the owner, since he not only
loses the use Of it, but also still has to
pay taxes on it.
One consequence is that it is wide
enough for only one vehicle, and carts
can pass one another only by trespass-
ing on the cultivated land. To prevent
this the farmers dig deep bitches by
the roadside. AS the surface wears
away and the dust blows OF it gradu-
ally grows lower, and after awhile it
becomes a drain for the surrounding
fields. A current forms In the rainy
season, which still further hoIlows it
out, and thus has arisen the proverb
that a road a thousand years old be-
comes a river
Those whose lands are used for
roads naturally prefer to have the
roads run along the edge Of their
farms instead Of cutting across them,
and this accounts for the fact that
Chinese roads are often so crooked
that one may have to go a considerable
distance to reach place that is IN re-
atty but a few miles away. This al
ways interests the stranger.
