Hot Weather Possibilities.
From the Worcester Telegram.

From the Worcester Telegram.
There is a movement of genius to
provide means to make stout breezes
rush through cities of this country in
all the hot days of summer. That is
by no means impossible. even at what
men may soon consider reasonable ex-
pense. The first idea which strikes the
busy mind is that great fans may be
erected in groups on one or more high
places near the centers OF cities ana
kept whirling by electric power, but
that is a crude idea in comparison with
the proposition to shower cities with
LIQUID air in such a way that the
LIQUID would become atmosphere in its
way down to the people, and thus cool
the air which is felt on the person and
breathed by each citizen. That might
be done periodically on hot days with
out frightful expense, and 1t may be-
come one of the standard industries OF
relief

Pa The nero or this new story of
faithfulness is an Italian who. half a
year or so ago, pleaded guilty to viola
ton of the liquor law. He had made
arrangements for visit to his old
home back in his native land, and when
the circumstances We're explained to
the court he was allowed to make the
long journey to Italy and back on con-
dit:on that at the expiration Of six
months he would be in court ready to
receive sentence. The Italian kept his
word, and yesterday he appeared for
sentence. which. on motion OF the dis
trict attorney. was postponed until the
first Monday in September.
Whether a nominal or severe sentence
be imposed upon this son of italy. his
fidelity to his promise has undoubtedly
aroused sympathy in his behalf. and.
doubtless, the public would be well
satisfied If he were allowed to go with
a reprimand. For the world admires
the man who keeps his word. and espe-
cially when he does so to his own in
convenience or injury. no matter what
his circumstances or his nationality
NAV be. "He kept his word" is a tribute
ar which any man may well be proud.

Analysing a Volcano.
From Youths Companion.

Members of the staff of the geophysicai
laboratory of the Carnegie Institution are
studying the physics and chemistry OF
active volcanoes at the crater of Kilauea
in Hawaii. During the summer OF 1872
these investigators descended into the
crater and collected gases directly from
the lava. These they sealed in glass tubes
without letting the gases come in contact
with the air Mt all They sent the tubes
to Washington. Besides taking samples
OF liquid lava directly from the molten
lake. the investigators studied the COM
position of the non-gaseous matter in the
cloud Of smoke above the volcano. Since
some authorities have believed that there
Is no water in the material emitted by
volcanoes. 1t Is interesting to notice that
the geopt ysicaI laboratory workers con-
densed no less than half pint of water
by cooling one of the gases that they had
taken directly from the boiling lava.

held an honorable place, and the friend
ship, which Queen Victoria gave her was
continued by King Edward. whom she re-
ceived in her London house in July. 1909.
Lady Hambleden's viscounty carried with
1t a remainder to her heirs male. ard her
death therefore raises to tie peerage her
only surviving son. the Hon. William
Frederick Danve-s Smith, partner in
the firm Of w. II. Smith & Son. who was
born in 1869. and sat in parliamen for
the Strand as rn.onist from 1881 to
1910. The new peer married Esther,
daughter OF the fifth Earl Of Arran, by
whom he has three sons and two daugh-
tiers, his heir being William Henry, who
was born in 1908.

expenses which, in Gov. Baldwin's opin-
ion, it would be unwise to have the state
pay. Among these are mentioned the
cost Of circulating nominating petitions
and of hiring transportation for voters
to polling places. The one. Gov. Bald
win asserts, has shown that many persons
sign such petitions without intending to
vote for the candidate they thus help to
place in nomination; the other could be
made unnecessary by establishing more
polling places.

No Central Authority.

Another defect in our methods of
Legislation is that there Is no central
responsible authority which can be
held accountable for the laws enacted.
There is but one remedy for this, and
that is to increase the powers and
duties of the executive AS President
Wilson has wisely stated, the people
demand leadership. They look to the
governor. and not to Individual mem
bers of the legislature, for such meas
ures as conditions may require"
The initiative and referendum was
characterized by the speaker as mere
ly palliative-a temporary, not a.
permanent, remedy"

be allowed to become q lawmaker."

than practical"

For Frequent Sessions.

Supporting his contention that fire.
Quent legislative sessions would aid
in increasing the efficiency of legis-
latures. Gov. O'Neal cited his own
state, where but one legislative SEES
sion is held every four years. There
Quadrennial system" he declared, has
proven to be the most prolific source
yet devised for hasty ill-advised and ILL
considered legislation. The vice of the
system is that 1t denies the people for
four years the right to repeal or revise
vicious unwiSe legislation.
THE present salary In almost every
Legislature is utterly inadequate. 1t
would be better for the state to in
vite free service from her citizens
than to pay the miserable pittance she
now offers.
One of the strongest objections to
our legislatures as now constituted Is
that the members represent only local
tiles and are more concerned in pro-
noting local legislation than in enact
ing necessary laws for the state at
large. 1t would unquestionably elevate
the tone of a state legislature II GER
tain proportion Of it's members were
elected from the state at large. The
membership of our legislatures should
also be decreased.

Peeress in Own Right.

Lady Hambleden was created a peerless
in her own right on the death Of her hus-
band, the former first lord of the treasury
and leader of the house of commons.
Born in 1885, she was one OF the last OF
the early Victorian danes and was a
great personal friend OF Queen Victoria.
In 1854 she was married to Benjamin Au-
Der Leach, who held an appointment IN
the old India house: but the union was
tragically short. for Mr.. Leach died IN
the following January. and the widow re-
turned to live with her parents In Lam
castergate, where her daughter. the Hon.
Mrs. Codrington. widow OF Rear Admiral
Codrington. was born.
In February, 1853, she became betrothed
to W. n. Smith. who was three years her
senior and had been for some time an In
innate friend Of her family.
The wedding took place in April OF the
same year. Her husband, though not
yet in parliament, was already In public
life, he having entered on various ac-
tiyities In addition to building up the
gogantic news agents business Of w. II.
Smith & Son, founded by his father.

Emphasizes the Need.

Emphasizing the need of radical re-
vision Of many Of the present methods
of legislative procedure. the Alabama
governor cited a constantly growing dis
trust for state legislatures on the part
of the people. In some states" he de-
'clared, this distrust has grown into
open contempt. In many g. session Of
the legislature is looked upon as some
thing in the nature of an unavoidable
calamity. Business becomes alarmed, in
dustrial development is checked and
there Is general apprehension.
Various methods adopted to increase
the tone and efficiency of legislative
bodies have, said the speaker. failed to
improve the legislative output. 1T will
be found he said. that the legislatures
have been more corrupt and more incom-
petent in exactly the proportion that
they have been increasingly deprived of
power and their responsibility restricted"
