Old Timber Stronger Than New

Which is the stronger. a piece OF
sound old timber or a piece OF new ?
We think II probable that the major.
ity OF engineers would say that the
new timber was the stronger In
either case. however. the opinions
would be mere guesswork, for there
has been hitherto so far as we recall.
no authentic information on this
point. This lack Is now supplied in
paper by Mr.. c. p. Buchanan. in which
he shows as a result OF careful tests.
that sound timber a quarter OF a cen.
fury old is materially stronger than
new stock
Mr.. Buchanan's tests wero made on
white pine. but there is no reason TO
suppose that oak. hard pine or any
other wood commonly used IN build
ing would behave differently. II is
fair TO conclude that all wood main.
tains fits strength, except as decay
weakens II or fire and mechanical alb
rasion destroy it.-Engineering News.

Emperor William Of Germany is In
receipt OF a singular petition forward.
cd TO Berlin by the Passaic IN. j.
Society for the Prevention OF Cruelty
to Animals. II calls attention TO the
fact that in the fine equestrian
statue Of your majesty erected at the
entrance to the new railway bridge at
Cologne the tail OF the horse IL
locked" The petition sets forth that
your majesty Is no doubt aware
that the docking OF the horses tail
constitutes one OF the worst crueltles
practioed on a dumb beast" II adds:
in our humble opinion II would be-
mistake TO leave the statue In its
present form. A beautiful long tail
might be put In the place OF the
stump. Such an alteration would not
only add much to the beauty OF the
statue. but would also stop adverse
criticism regarding your majesty's
feelings toward a humane cause"
The emperor has not yet replied to
the petition.
