ALIENS MUST BE PREPARED.
Cases Dismissed Yesterday for Lack
Of knowledge.


That aliens petitioning for admis
sion 10 fun citizenship, must be pre-
pared in Ioughton counts hereafter,
IS shown by the fact that five appli-
cants were dismissed yesterday by
Judge Streeter for lack Of requisite
knowledge concerning the English
language and the principles ~ gov
eminent.
In one case, the applicant had been
absent from the United States for
eleven months after he, fled his dec
laration and one OF his Witnesses had
not seen him for eighteen months,
having made his residence at the 500
during that time. Judge Streeter or
dered that the case be dismissed and
instructed the man 10 file a new dec
laration In addressing the witnesses,
the judge warned that witnesses
should be more careful what they are
swearing 20. stating that II the gov
ernmcn, desired to take action, IT
could sne him $4,000 for swearing 20
five years continuous acquaintance
with the man. 4 few cases were
continued so that the applicant might
have an opportunity TO become better
acquainted with the English Ian

the great Bessemer, by inventing his
process of decentralization, so far i'm
proved the quality and reduced the
cost of steel, that it quickly replaced
iron and introduced that wonderful
commercial steel, which has been the
most potent factor in the marvellous
industrial development OF the past
half century.
1t was about fifteen years ago that
rerious attempts were made to COM
bine steel and concrete by molding
the one into the other in such way
that the resulting product would
prossess high resistance not merely
to compressive but to bending and
tensional stresses. The first practical
experiments in this direction gave
such good results that the attention
Of engineers throughout the world
was quickly centered upon the prob
lem. A vast amount Of experimental
work was done, out Of which has
sprung our modern reinforced con-
crete, regarding which it is not too
much to say that it is destined to
play a part in engineering construct
ion, second only, if not equal, to
that of mild steel. The developments
of the past fifteen years, particularly
of the last five, have been truly
phenomenal. Not only is concrete
found to be available for practically
every form of construction which
hitherto has been built in brick or
stone, not only has it proved well
adapted for many uses in which
neither brick nor stone is convenient-
ly available, but it has now invaded
the field which was supposed to be
peculiarly reserved for iron and steel,
as witness the fact that it is being
used for piling, for tanks, for trusscd
bridges, for framed roofs, and floor
ing Of wide span. Most significant
and incredible Of all, it is taking the
place of steel in the construction OF
certain types of boats and small
barges and ships. In works OF great
magnitude involving large amount
of construction, it has proved to be
simply invaluable; and it can truly
be said that were not concrete and
reinforced concrete available, that
most monumental of all modern
engineering works, the Panama Can
al, could never have been undertaken
by the United States.

to the score it would appear that the two

be a season of big scores in baseball
