The work of excavating for the
foundations of the Woolworth building
was begun on Nov 4. 1910. Eixty-six
sGaissons were sunk to depth of lis
feet until they reached solid rock and
the sixty-six concrete piers. resting on
the rock, constitute the foundation OF
the structure.
The foundation was completed in
the fall of 1911, when the erection Of
the steel frame was begun. The lat
ter was completed In July of last year
and the brick and stone work was
completed at the beginning OF the
present year. Twenty-four thousand
tons OF steel went into the making of
the building and the total weight OF
the structure Is estimated at 250, 1000
tons.
The building has fifty-fve floors.
twenty-five of which are in the tower.
and the aggregate floor space is about
thirty-three acres. The building and
tower together contain about 1000 Of
fees. with 5000 windows and as many
doors.
To enable the occupants of the
building to reach their respective
floors there are thirty-four passenger
elevators. of which twenty-four are

If they die prematurely. and provision
for their own old age IL they live long.
1t is Incorporation on a scientific basis

moral character, and money paid in. Their
contracts call for the payment Of a
fabulous sum-in case of death while they
are in force-two thousand one hundred
and siXty-nine million dollars. Suppose
they We're all 10 die within a year This
supposition brings out the scientific basis
of life insurance. namely, that they will
not all die in one year. and that the COM
pany Is able to say in advance approx
mately how many will die each year un-
til all are dead. Some will surely die
each year. and they will not be-save in
few cases-the Oldest nor those who
are the most feeble at the beginning Of
the year. The number dying in 1872 was
about 5000. and the company paid their
families and estates over 81, 0o0, coo. That
was the provision these 10000 people
made for their families in case Of death.
The provision made for old age, or

Capt. William S. Sims Addresses Class
on Relation Between War Col
lege and Fitness to Fight"

An extension course OF the Naval War
College was opened for the first time in
Washington yesterday afternoon, in the
auditorium of the New National Mu-
scum, with more than 300 members Of
the army and navy services. and others
interested, in attendance. George Dew
ey. Admiral of the Navy, was among
those present.
The course was declared open by Sec
rotary of the Navy Myer. in a brief
speech. He was followed by Capt. w. S.
Sims, who lectured on the practical val
ne of the work of the Naval War COL
lege The lectures. which will be de-
livered by officers of the army as well as
officers of the navy, will be continued
every Monday afternoon during the
winter
In opening the course, Secretary Myer
said in part: -.
The more each military service knows
of each other the better will the mill
tary action of the country be; the more
prominent men of the country are made
cognizant of the high aims and pur-
poses of both services the more sup
port such naval and military policies
will receive.
This course of lectures aims to bring
10 the attention Of army and navy
naval service and its policy, information
and opinions prepared at the Naval War
College, and to add thereto. In separate
lectures, the expert knowledge OF promi-
nent civilians who have consented to give
lectures this winter. The course Of lee
lures, as I understand 1t, will embrace
papers in naval policy, on strategy. tao
tics, and combined operations Of the
army and navy; will also include, il is
relations, diplomacy. international law.
the Panama Canal and its effect on
naval strategy, and on our intercourse
with Latin-American countries"
Capt. Sims Lectures.
the first Of the series of lectures which
will make up the course, referred to the
presence of Secretary Meyer and his part
in initiating the work as one OF the
most important events for the navy in
long time.
THE sRelation Between the Naval War
College and Fitness to Fight was the
theme of Capt. Sims talk. IAN officers
whole career should be a preparation
for time OF great national danger" he
said, land his duties in time of peace
furnishing nothing like the adequate
training needed in time OF war. What
is needed is the proper mental train
ing"
Actual competition with other minds
is necessary for the training OF naval
officers, and this training is largely fur
nished by work in the War College" he
continued. The critic who says that
subordinates should not become familiar
with the duties of their superiors takes
a wrong view. II is only by such knowI-
edge that there can be cooperation"

series OF lectures. begun yesterday is an
extension course. is located at Newport,
