threatened various American communi-

sPAIN's SUMMER CAPITAL.

San Sebastian, the summer capi-
tai of Spain, is growing seaport
city and the capital of the Basque
province of Guipuscoa, in which
Carlist sentiment is believed to be
strong. The city is situated on the
peninsula at the base of a steep hill,
which is crowned with one of the
strongest castles in Spain. The
shore along the roadstead is most
beautiful and many thousands Of
visitors are attracted to the place
every year. The king has a fine pal
ace there, known as Mirawar, and
the court is often transferred to it
during the hot weather.
San Sebastian has undergone nu-
merous sieges, the most memorable
Of which was in 1913, when a
French garrison of 5000 men held
the city for time against the duke
Of Wellington. The English loss in
the siege was 5000 men, and on its
capture the greater portion of the
place was burned.

MOTORCYCLES IN GERMANY.

In this years German army
maneuvers the sight will be wit
messed Of motor tricycles speeding
about the battlefield. Hitherto it has
been found that much time was lost
in rendering medical assistance to
the wounded. To prevent such de-
lay during the coming maneuvers
field surgeons will be mounted upon
specially constructed motor .tricycles
made on the lines of those now used
by tradesmen, in which will be car
ried all the necessary material for
first aid.
In the past a wounded man had
to be carried on a stretcher to the
nearest lazarette before help could
be rendered. In future should he
find it impossible to treat the case
on the spot, the surgeon can himself
convey the man to the lazarette on
his motor tricycle.. The machine
will be built so that it can go over
heavy ground, and it will, owing to
its speed, save many hours of weary
waiting to the wounded.

FLOATING FORTS AS DEFENSE
Novel Scheme Proposed for Protec-
ton Of Three Of England's
Ports.

A novel scheme for the defense OF
Sheerness, Portsmouth and Devon
port, three of England's principal
naval ports, against the attacks Of
hostile torpedo craft is at present
under the consideration of the Brit
ish admiralty.
There are at present in the navy
number of old battleships which
are practically useless for war pur-
poses. 1t is proposed that some Of
these vessels shall be converted into
floating forts.
All the heavy guns and if neces-
sary also the machinery would be
removed. The ship would then be
equipped with a large number Of
4.7-inch and 4-inch quick-fring
guns. 1t is estimated that some Of
the vessels could easily mount from
GO to 80 of these weapons.
1t is pointed out that a ship
armed with 80 four-inch guns hav-
ing 40 on each broadside, would be
able to keep up a fire from each gun
Of ten rounds a minute. Even if
the attacking craft could not be
seen, it is doubtful if one boat in
twenty could live through such a
rain of shot long enough to enable
it to do any damage AS the float
ing forts would be equipped with
powerful search lights there would
be little chance Of approaching boata
being unobserved.

THE FRESH AIR SCHOOLS
American Cities Are Adopting Plan
for tuberculosis Children Which
Has Worked Well in Germany.

Fresh air schools, started and still
conducted to care for tuberculous
children, promise to have an impor-
tant influence upon the entire pub
lie school system. They are still
new in America, having been in use
in Providence two years, in Boston
something more than a year and for
shorter periods in Chicago, Pitts
burg, Rochester and Hartford. They
have been fully tried out in Ger
many, where they have been varied
into open air summer schools and
forest schools. In no place where
they have been tried have they been
abandoned. In most places they are
being extended. Thus far the
schools have included only the ply
sically weak and the mentally back
ward. With plenty of fresh air and
sanitary surroundings, these weak
and defective children have been
able to accomplish more than nor
NAL children in the ordinary schools
In some cases progress has been ex-
ceptionally rapid. While the minds
develop as they never developed be-
fore, the bodies grow strong and
children are given chance in life.

WHERE MEN GET SHORTER.

A singular result of the expert
ments of DR.. Angelo Mosso on the
physiological effects of high alti-
tudes is that mountain ascent may
produce such a flattening Of the
lumbar curve that a man may be an
inch and half shorter on the sum-
NIT of Monte Rosa than when he
is in the valleys beneath. The
height of Monte Rosa, the second
loftiest peak of the Alps, is 1925
feet. The cause Of the shortening is
partly the exertion of climbing. The
human stature always diminishes
during the day.
