LINDSEY IDEA FAILS TEST.

WILKESBARRE, Pa, Jan. 26.-Dur-
ing the lecture of Judge Ben Lindsey
here Jesse Briggs, an attache of the
courthouse, was an attentive listener
and was much impressed with the
Lindsey idea of solving the boy prob
lem. He decided to test the strength
of the judges argument at the first
opportunity and had his chance to-
day.
Briggs was assigned to remove
James Brown and Peter Radvoyitch
incorrigible youths, to the Father
Baker Home at Buffalo. On the jour.
ney to Scranton where he was TO
change cars, Briggs talked to the
youngsters just as Judge Lindsey said
he did. Briggs told the boys that he
believed they were not bad youths
and if given a chance they would not
run away.
Upon reaching Scranton Briggs step
ped in a telephone booth, and, to test
the Lindsey idea, left the boys on the
outside. When he returned the boys
were gone and have not since beer
heard from.

force of some 300 English policemen
for the protection of the foreign set
Elements at that place. These are in
addition to some 400 or 500 Sikh po-
licemen and about 1000 Cinnamon For
the past six years attachments of po-
licemen have been sent out to Shan
ghai from England, and, indeed, a
small detachment is at present on it's
way out
In obtaining the necessary number
the Shanghai municipal council has to
compete with the metropolitan police
of London, who are always on the look
out for suitable recruits to maintain
their high and well known standard,
The Shanghai constable, however, has
his passage paid for him, and starts
with a salary of $40 a week, so a good

BEAUTY DRIVE OF RIO DE JANEIRO

in all things, all the beautiful things
that enter into the composition of the
most wonderful and lovely city pano-

seen nearly all the famous ones, af-
firms a writer in the Ladies' Home
Journal.
Rios beauty is a strange, a unique
beauty. There is in its beauty curl
ously impossible something, difficult
to describe, more difficult not to feel
and enjoy.
A Brazilian writer has confessed
that Rio has not the charm of anti
uuity; but hat, it seems to me, is the
only charm she lacks, and its absence

THE WALTZ IN ENGLAND.

The "unclasp waltz" is the latest
novelty in dances reported from Lon
don. In it the partners do not clasp
each other, says the English Gentle
woman, but stand face to face, hold
ing their arms out sideways, the An
gers touching, but not interlacing.
They do eight bars of the waltz in
this relative position toward each
other. Next the man puts his hands
on his hips and the girl puts hers be-
hind her back, and still face to face,
but not touching each other they con
tinue through eight more bars. 1t is
the privilege Of the man to reverse or
not under these rather difficult cir
cumstances.
The Boston, with its new feature
the 1911" is still danced, and so are
the one-step and two-step. Another
popular novelty is the valse mazour
ka, dedicated to the Duchess of West
Minister, by whom it was inspired

The valse des patineurs Cwaltz of tho
skatersD was introduced in London by
visitors from Berlin. The partners
standing side by side, take hands
crisscross merely, and then advance
as you see skaters on the ice, doinl
two neat glissades on the right, ant
then on the left, swaying their bod

The seemingly unaccontable failure
of fog signals at the critical moment
has been a source of much perpleXity
and serious disaster 1t not infre-
quently happens that the master of a
vessel will testify that the fog whistle
could not be heard, while lighthouse
officials maintain with equal positive
ness that there was no failure to give
the proper signal. 1t is now known
that both sides may have been cor
rect in their statements. If sound
travels through a medium such as air
the density of which varies more or
less from point to point, it suffers 4
refraction, or, in other words. the
line of propagation is not a straight
line, says the Philadelphia Inquirer.
AS a result of this it may occur that
a sound wave, starting from some
point of the surface of the earth, is
DETECTED upwards, so that a person
stationed at some distance on the
surface of the earth Will receive no
indication of the sound wave, which
passes over him, above his head, leav-
ing him unconscious of the disturb
ance
Another possible cause through
which sound ignals may become in
audible at certain points is the retiec
ton of sound from sharply defined
clouds or banks of dense fog. Such
reflected wave just neutralize and
the sound becomes inaudible.

ANOTHER BATTLING MYSTERY OF The SEA

The troubles to which air signals
are subject are completely overcome
when water is used as the transmit
ting medium. The success of sub
marine bell signals has been so mark
ed that in time the siren signals of
the air will probably become of sec
ondary Importance Where both sig
nails can he employed and used stimuli
taneously, a careful determination of
the interval between the receipt of
the two signals enables the mariner
to obtain some indication of his dis
lance from the starting point of both
signals, for obviously the time which
elapses between the receipt of the
two signals in the difference between
the time taken for the air signal and
the water signal to reach him. Now
the velocity of sound in the air is
about 100 feet per second; in water
about 400 feet per second. From
these data the distance may be com
puted.
The same principle can be applied
with still more satisfaction if one of
the signals is given by wireless tele-
graphy and the other through the
water 1t is claimed that the bells
used as submarine signals can be
heard further, under ordinary circum-
stances, than the siren, and, further
more. by means of special telephone
apparatus, it is possible to determine
the direction or the origin of the
sound
