through Behring'S Strait in the north
Pacific and then holding a greatly re-
duced sway as it sweeps along the
coast bordering the Pacific. The
temperature of the water at the start
is estimated at seventy five degrees
with decided loss of heat as each de-
gree of North Latitude is passed and
its width is 125 miles. Still their
is ample heat in the stream to give
to Great Britain a climate it may de-
serve, but is not entitled to, consider
ing its location. II is in the same
Latitude as Labrador. and Labrador
is ice bound nine months in the year.
so that in taking away the Gulf
Stream from Great Britain and send
ing in place the icy Labrador current
the British Islands will become ice
bound nine months in the year just as
Labrador is. This becomes one OF
the possibilities in case this Arctic
current is short plump against Eng

of Greenland.
Bill in Congress Provides For Survey
A bill has been introduced in Con-
gress by Representative, Calder Of
New York appropriatng 500, 600 for
a survey commission to inquire into
the feasibility of the project. At
first a line of rough rocks would be
laid from Newfoundland to deep
water 200 miles long. On this fOun-
dation the tides with their deposits
would in time bring the structure up
to near water level and the effect of
this NATURAL built Jetty would be to
send the Labrador current to deep
water 200 miles to the eastward Of
Newfoundland. Should the project
materialize" Our hands across the Sea
will have ample cause for protest in
tead of seeking how tie United States
should allow shipping to pass through
the Canal according to their interpre-
tatOn of the Clayton Bulwer Treaty
or its later and hardly more explicit
Hay-Pauneeforte Treaty

james W. Spruance Of Smyrna,
probably the oldest ex-member of the
Delaware General Assembly. was a
visitor in the House Of Representatives
Of the Delaware Legislature Wednes-
day afternoon and was Introduced by
Speaker Holcomb. He occupied a
seat by the speaker for a short tins.
Mr.. Spruance stated he was elected
member of the House from Smyrna in

He is the only one living Of the 81
members Of that house and believes
he is the oldest ex-member Of the
Delaware Legislature. Mr.. Spruance
is S5 years Of age. He recalls an in
teresting incident in connection with
the session cf 1855, which was that he
cast the deciding vote for the "MaiHe
law, which prohibited the sale Of
intoxicating liquor in this State.
The seven members from New Castle
county were pledged 70 prohibition
and the seven Sussex members pledg-
ed against it. Three Of the Kent
members took the stand for and three
against the question. After il had
been held up for 3 days, MIR. Spru-

ure. Several Of the House mem

DRASTIC CIGARETTE BILL
PASSES DELAWARE HOUSE
ALLOWS SALE OF CIGARETTES
ONLY TO MEN q YEARS AND w
Strong Crusade From All Over the
State Endorse Measure Which
Passed Wednesday. q to q

What is considered an unusually
drastic measure was passed Wednes-
day afternoon, when the House, by a
vote of % to IL, put through a House
substitute for Senator Hazel's bill to
prevent the use Of cigarettes by min
Ors. Under the bill it would be un-
lawful to knowingly sell or give Gig
arettes to any person under 21 years.
Minors buying cigarettes would be
subject to a fine. and those misrep-
resenting their age would also be sub
ject to a fine. The fines range from
$40 to $25. A large delegation. in
cluding about a hundred school chll-
dren were present when action was
taken on the bill. The vote on the
bill was as follows: Yeas-Arthurs,
Barnard. Bennett, Bradford, Cook,
Cooper, Cummins, Derrickson,
Hoffecker. Houston, Jester, King,
LattOmus. Lynch, Mccormick, Owens,
Phillips, Pool. Reynolds, Smith, Tay-
lOr, Speaker Holcomb-22. Nays
Allen, Hirsch, Layton, Lingo.
Mooney, Mcdonald. Records, Schneid-
er, StOeckel, Swan. Wagamon-11.
Mrs. Lita Aaron spoke in behalf of
the bill. She said the bill being con-
sidered was one of the most important
measures that has come before the
General Assembly this season, as it
protects the boys of the State against
the poisonous cigarettes. She declar-
ed that the smoking of cigarettes
among boys was spreading like wild
fire. Those who have made a study
of it. she declared, say that from l, 200
TO 1.50O0 boys are forming the habit
every day of the year. Mrs. Aaron
did not consider the bill a drastic one
but an entirely fair measure. Pro-
fessOr George S. Messersmith, prin-
cipal of the Dover schools, spoke of
the bad effect that cigarettes have on
the school boys who form the habit.
He thought the measure would in no
way be hardship on those who sell
cigarettes, as they do not want to sell
to minors and this bill in reality
would protect them. He believes
the bill would stop the sale Of cigar
cites to minors. Rev. II. G. Budd.
principal of the Conference Academy,
Wesley Webb, G. ]. Meredith, w.
7. BucksOn and r. J. Ferguson also
indorsed the bill. At the close of the
arguments a petition containing 5, 600
signatures from Wilmington to Del
mar was presented. The petition,
when unrOlled. reached from one end
of the room to the other and there
still remand many yards of it.
When Mrs. Aaron presented the pet
itiOn Speaker HOlcOmb remarked that
the members would be glad to take
her word for the names and not at
tempt to read them. Representative
Mooney raised the point that the sec
tion of the bill which provides a fine Of
S25 on minor misrepresenting mis-
name was too serve. He said father
may have an incorrigible son, and
would be required to pay these fines
when the boy misrepresented age.
Representative Hirseh thought the bill
was entirely too drastic. He said
there is now law prohibiting the
sale of cigarettes to boys under II
years of age and defied any one to
show where there had been FIVE arrests
under the law in five years. The vote
was then taken and the bill passed.

MEN FOR u. S. navy
PASS THROUGH
LIVELY SCENE AT STATION ADDS
TO DAYS DOINGS IN RAIL
ROAD CIRCLES.

The platform of the Northern Pa
c1fic depot looked as though it might
be the wharf of q seaport town or a
navy yard for a while yesterday aft
ernoon. The cause of the exceptional
activity was the arrival on train No.
of 60 men from the government
training school in Illinois.
The men are on their way to Mare
Island in San Francisco bay, where
they will be assigned to the ships of
the navy. Most of the men in the
party that passed through Missoula
will probably be assigned to the bat
tleship Maryland. These men have
been for the last seven months in the
training school at Great Lakes, III.
This is a part of Chicago, and Was
formerly known as North Chicago.
The party is travelling in two tour
list coaches attached to train No. 3.
In charge is Master of Arms j. r.
Rocks. The party is composed of
three apprentice marine corps hos
pital men, four ships company men
and the others are enlisted men. They
were a jolly, young, hopeful crowd
The oldest man in the party, aside
from the man in charge, was not more
than 20.
The members of the party were inn
pressed with the warm weather in
Missoula. A hope was expressed that
the coaches be cut out here for a few
hours in order to give the boys a
chance to see Missoula and visit the
university. They were taken on with
No. 3, however. and will reach their
destination Friday morning.

At least there is not likely to be any
objection now to the paving plans for
this year which were
PAVING discussed last fall.
NEEDED The proposition was to
pave Pattee street and
at least two blocks on Main street,
one each side of Higgins avenue
The condition of these streets yester-
day was ample argument to convince
anybody of the necessity for paving
which exists. 1t vas a thought gen.
orally expressed yesterday that there
should be at least this much more
paving done in the business district
this season. On West Main street,
the Missoula hotel improved condi-
tons to some extent by having the.
ice removed from the cutters, whore
it had caked hard. The sturdy
Wielder of the pick sent a spray of
mud high into the air every time he
drove his pick into the ice but he
kept up the good work until he had
the gutter clear and last night Man
ager Walsh sent word to The Mis-
soulian office that he thought the rest
Of the street would do well to follow
his example. It's a good example
and The Muscular hopes the rest of
the street will follow it. During the
winter The Muscular tried the prac-
tice Of keeping its part of the gutter
open and the result was that all the
drainage from the rest of the street
settled in the middle of the block. If
the rest of the gutter is opened, the
istalWart janitor of the MissOulian
building will get his share of the.
canal connected for interoceanic
traffic.
