DISTINGUISHED
SOLDIER GUEST
At MAJESTIC

Col Nathan W. Reynolds. member
of the distinguished family of that
name of civil war fame, is spending
few days in Hammond. being guest
al the Majestic hotel, where he is rest
ing up after a slight indisposition. His
erect figure and military bearing. his
uniform, all bespeaking the soldier de-
spite his advanced years-he is IL
years old-occasioned comment and in
quiry in the community where things
military are the exception rather than
the rule.
reporter for THE TIMES was re-
ceived by Col. Reynolds in his room at
the Majestic hotel this afternoon. An
inherent military discipline coupled
with words of greeting, denoting a
man accustomed to the company of Of
ficials and men of rank. was the first
impression gained upon entering the
room. A glance at the documents and
literature in the room and the trend of
| the conversation with the veteran re-
vealed the mind of "a man now living
with the memories of the past.
VIII Retire Soon.
Col. Reynolds is still in the service
of the United States army. but he in
tends to resign next month and retire
! to his home at Indianapolis. He is
given light duties and is practically at
liberty to select his own work, the gist
of which consists in visiting various
| United States military stations.
/ At the time of the Spanish American
war, when he was ready to retire he
| remained in the army at the request
/ of President Mckinley. and since then
| circumstances have shaped themselves
| so that he did not care to retire until
| now.
Col Reynolds is widower and has
! a son in the Philippines. He is one OF
| three or four of the famous family sur
viving, and one of the sixty-eight OF
the same family who served in the civil
war. He speaks with pride of his &C
| quaintance with the late Charles Grif-
/ fin, whom he knew intimately when
the Hammond man was secretary OF
state.
! One of Col. Reynolds produest pos
sessions is a little badge given him by
the late King Edward upon his visit
| to ST. James court as a temporary
staff officer on General Miles staff.
The veteran soldier was first con-
nected with the Eighth Indiana infant
ry, but most of his years have beer
| devoted to field and staff detail.

The Portland Cement Industry.
From the Engineering Mapax;no

The growth of the Portland cement In.
Austry has not ended. anu its present rela.
tive Importance Is rarely understood. Its
Increase in size and in commercial infu.
ence bring with them certain consequence,
which might well be borne in mind at the
present moment. We can no longer feel
that the cement industry is small and un.
important. ant that its condition ia pure.
" a matter of private or local interest.
On the contrary. it must be realized that
the s%oundness of the cement industry has
now become q matter of interest not only
to cement manufacturers. but to CONNER
cial and financial interests generally. In
capital employed it probably ranks third
only to from and coal among the American
mineral industries. It certainly far out
ranks. in this respect, all the gold mining
industry Of the United States and Alaska.
Even the copper industry falls into lower
place for Finlay has recently estimated
that the value of all the copper-niinfnR
and smelling plants Of the United States
u only $ll0,N00.Oo0. From the banking
point Of view. therefore, we are dealing
with one Of the three great extractive IA,
dustries OF the world.

Triumph Of COURAGE.

Courage and the power of the hui
man eye" saved Walter Sargent, a
prosperous rancher, in the Redwood
district, San Jose. when he was con-
fronted by a hungry mountain lion the
other evening. Sargent was driving
a herd of COWS to his home in the
foothills, when he noticed the big cat
stalking him. AS it crouched for a
spring Sargent turned and fixed the
beast with his eye. Man and lion
remained as immovable as statues for
. few seconds and then the animal
turned and trotted away.

THE PRICE OF
LAND INCREASING
rHE "eAck TO THE LAND" CRY
le EFFECTIVE.

Travelling through the state Of Iowa
the other day, and Iowa is no excep-
lion to the story about to be related,
the writer was shown a farm that was
offered three years ago for $3.50 an
acre. That appeared to be a high fig
IRE for land upon which the owner
depended upon the crops Of corn, hogs
and cattle that could be raised upon
1t. But it wasn't. A few weeks since
the farm changed hands at 1925 an
acre. Over in Illinois, down in In
diana, up in Wisconsin, across the
line in Minnesota, the same expert
ence was met with. And then atten-
ton is directed to Canada, which has
been the Mecca of so many hundred
thousand Americans during the past
lew years. Not only in Eastern Can
ada has the price of lands increased.
but in Western Canada, during the
past few weeks, farm lands have in
creased from three to Ave dollars an
acre. with the prospect of q similar
advance during the next three months.
The reason for this is very apparent.
and in a few words it may be pointed
out that the lands are worth a great
deal more than the present prices.
The Northwestern Agriculturist Of
Minneapolis, a paper that was m Of
the first Of the American farm papers
to discover the real merits of the
lands of Manitoba, Saskatchewan and
Alberta, says: 1.-THE reciprocity sched-
nile would encourage American farm.
ers to move to Canada. where the vir-
gin soil will produce greater crops of
grain with less labor than can be pro-
duced in our own farms in the North
| west. The result will be to enhance
land values in Canada" This paper
is afraid land values in Canada will be
enhanced at the expense Of land
values in the United States. In face
Of the fact that land values in the
United States are increasing the rea-
soning scarcely holds. The reason for
the advance in value Of Canadian
lands is partly accounted from the
fact, admitted by this paper. that Can
ada's virgin soil will produce greater
crops of grain with less labor" But
that is not the only reason. During
the past twelve months 100000 peo-
pie have made Canada their home and
these are mostly Of the farming class.
They want farms, and the demand as
we'll as the wealth of the soil is regu-
lating the price, A study Of the in
crease in the acreage Of land put un
der crop last year, which can be had
from n Canadian government repre-.
sentative, will prove the point, that
the demand is increasing at a greater
ratio than even the most sanguine
would have predicted.

Pensions for Ballet Dancers.
From the New York wa-ld.

1t may not be generally known that
children trained to become ballet dane
erS in Russia are educated, clothed and
fed at the expense of the government
and retire on a pension at So. The bal
let dancer of Russia begins early and
leads Il strenuous life. At 8 years the
child-boy or girls presented to the
school, and. if the candidate passes tho
small entrance examination and salts,
fes h physical requirements as tc.
growth and development, "a be ac-
cepted.
A considerable proportion of the pu-
pills are the children of dancers. but tho
school is open to all classes. Parental
responsibility practically ends here
The child is entirely brought up at ths
cost of the state. and receives a very
fair secondary education, is well cared
for and looked after, and is ~thoroughl,
trained in the art that is to become the
work OF his or her life. -Four hours q
day are devoted to dancing during the
eight years the pupil is at school.
Any child who proves incapable CT
who grows too tall or does not grow
enough nay be sent away without right
of appeal. While still at school the
pupils frequently appear On the stage
! n dances created specially for children
They also take part i'm the crowds In
operas where children are needed. as IL
the first act of TschaikOwsky's Dame
de Pique." At II they must start their
career as members of the corps de ball

HOW HONUS WAGNER
S S THE STAGE

Chicago.--Special: Larry Jajoie, al
most went n vaudeville last fall. He
was willing n anxious, SO anxious
that he tried to induce Hans Wagner
to go on the stage with him. Hans
promised and then backed out, and
thereby hangs. n tale.
Bill Gray. a New York theatrical
manager, had a batting act for Larry,
Wagner, Cobb and Collins. He had a
machine that tested the speed of a ball
off the bat. A ball was thrown up aut-
omatically in front of the batter. who
In hitting the target and the speed
of the ball was shown. There was to
be nightly batting contests between the
four big stars.
Here is the tale OF Hans promise and
refusal to be an actor. as told by
Larry:
Gray and 1 went to Carnegie to
line up Hans. He a promised Gray
to go on the stage, but did not an
swer Gray's letters and kilograms.
Everybody in Carnegie knew Hans, but
they never saw him.
w ran across Hans brother AL.
and asked him when Hans would be
home. Pretty soon.' said AL. He
never STAYS out after dark
"Hans calne-just at dusk-muddy
and in old clothes, fresh from the
chase. He was tickled to see us and
accepted GraNS Olfer. which was 5000
a week for him. $25 Il week and travel
ing expenses for his brother AL, whom
Hans wanted as his companion on the
road.
ut was all fixed. Gray and 1
thought. a contract was left with
Hans. which he was to sign and send
to me.
Hans was a little shy about signing
to be an actor until Gray told him all
he would have to do was walk on tha
stage. his bat in one hand and his cap
in the other. When the people APP
plaud, take off your cap said Gray.
Then TAX II bat and hit the ball
a half dozen times
-Four days later I got a letter from
Hans. 1t read:

your offer. but I can't stand travelling.

COFFEE CONGESTION
Causes a Variety Of Ais.

A happy old lady in Wisconsin
says:
During the time I was a coffee
drinker I was subject to sick head
aches, sometimes lasting 2 or 3 days,
totally uniting me for anything.
To this afaiction was added. some
years ago. a trouble with my heart
that was very painful. accompanied
by a smotheripg sensation and faint
ness.
Dyspepsia. also. came to make life
harder to bear. I took all sorts of pat
emit medicines but none Of them helped
me for any length Of time.
The doctors f.equantly told me
that coffee was not good for me: but
without coffee l felt as IL I had no
breakfast I finally decided about 2
years ago to abandon the use Of cof-
fee entirely, and as I had read q great
deal about Postum I concluded to try
that for a breakfast beverage.
II liked the taste Of It and was par
ucularly pleased to notice that it did
not come up as coffee used to. The
bad spells with. my heart grew less
and less frequent, and finally ceased
altogether, and l have not had an at
tack Of sick headache for more than q
year. My digestion is good. too, and
