HOW TO GAIN NoTORIETY.

Senator Stone, having been sent a
live coon from Missouri, had him
on exhibition for a week on the grass
plot of the terrace below the capitol.
Every now and then a senator with
wrinkled brow, wondering where his
vote would land him, would 60 down
with the now distinguished chairman
of the foreign relations committee
and look at this real live senatorial
coon with all the interest of boy at
a menagerie.
My old friend in the gallery could
not resist philosophizing upon the
incident. Nowadays" he began, re-
gretfully, sunless a senator raises
Cain, captures coon or does some
thing else unusual, he is not noticed"
But there was a twinkle in his eye
as he took my arm and we set forth
for the terrace where the Missouri
coon proved popular attraction

USE OF ALUMINIUM VESSELS
Scientific Investigation Shows That
the Metal Has Many Advantages
Over Other Kinds.

Now that aluminium utensils are
coming into use it viii be interest
ing to note the following expert
ments made by Prof. John Glaister
Of the Glasgow university, his object
being to find whether various ali
ments were likely to attack the metal.
He finds that the only substances
that attack the surface are oranges,
lemons, brussels sprouts and toma-
toes, but even in this case the guam
tity of aluminium dissolved is insig-
nifcant and quite inoffensive.
1t is already known that alumni
nun is not affected by air at any
temperature and it does not blacken
on contact with hydrogen sulphide as
silver does. As the metal is easily
cleaned it appears that such utensils
have all the advantages and all kinds
of foods can be prepared in them
without danger.
Another advantage that they share
with copper vessels is that, being of
thin metal, they heat up very quick
ly. For electric or flame heaters this
means quite an economy of heat, as
less heat is now lost in warming up
the material of the vessel. This re-
fers specially to rapid heating, such |
as boiling of water and the like

EXTENDS FAR INTO THE PAST
Scotch Professor Of Opinion That An.
tlquity OF Man Has Been Much
Underestimate.

in his recent work. ~The Antiquity
Of Man in Europe" Prof. James
Geikie Of Edinburgh university de-
clares his belief that man has in
habited Europe between 100000 and
100000 years. All such estimates
are based on geological facts-such
as the rate at which sediment is de-
posted, or at which stalagmites
grow--that are very hard to deter
mine with any accuracy, but no one
now doubts that man is far older
than men of science originally sup
posed him to be. "When we reflect"
says Professor Geikie, con the many
geographical changes that man has
witnessed-the submergence and re-
elevation of enormous tracts, the ero-
sion of valleys and general lowering
of the surface by denudation; when
we consider that he has lived through
a succession OF stupendous climatic
revolutions; that he has seen widely
contrasted foras and. faunas alter
nately occupying our contlnent-tun-
dras, steppes and great forests sue
ceeding each other again and again
We must feel convinced that the few
thousand years that have elapsed
since the downfall of Babylonian,
Assyrian and Egyptian empires are
as nothing compared with the long
cons that separate the earliest times
of history from the apparition of
paleolithic man in Europe.

START SkCHEM ST. IMPROVEMENT
Macadam and the Granolhic Sidewalks Will be Continued
 Preliminary Work Beginning Today-commerce Street Next Week-Work at Franklin Street Park Nearly Done

The various street Improvements that have been authorized by the city government are nearly completed. in the case of the changes that were de- cided upon at the lower end of Bos- well avenue and its junction with Franklin street. and ready to start, as Commerce street and on Sachem street.
 The Sachem street work will be started this morning. Already that highway has been put in first class condition with a taF-bound macadam Toad and granolithic walks ons each side as far as Uncas street. The pres ent work to be undertaken is the con- tinuance of this improvement up Sa- chem street. On the south side the granolithic pavement will be continued only as far as Yantic street, but on the north side 1t will be extended clear through to Lafayette street. This work was ordered by the common council last October. By an agreement be- tween the gas and electric department and the trolley company, they will use joint poles on this stretch of Sachem street beyond Uneas, and in conse- quence five poles will replace the eight that are at present in use
 The Commerce street work is due to start next week. The owners on the south side are to raise their sidewalks to the new grade established by City Engineer Pitcher two months ago. and in the highway are to be put in the granite blocks that were taken out of Main street when that thoroughfare was brick paved. This improvement extends through from Breeds lane to the railroad track

The changes that have been made at the Franklin street park are comment ed upon fayorably. The watering trough there has been raised to it's new grade and the square at the foot of the park has likewise almost all been raised to the new level The curbing on the lower end of Boswell and grade,-while the wall along the park has been completed and the fence upon it has been replaced, onc- third of 1t about being new material
 City Engineer Pitcher has also been busy in revising the street numbers, which were first established In lSS4, when the city was numbered by c. E. Chandler, then city engineer, for the letter carrier service. At that time the records were made on tracing paper, and in the course of the years, with continual folding and unfolding, the paper has been broken into separate pieces. so much so that one street WIS found in 12 sections, corresponding to the folds in the tracing paper. Mir. Pitcher is now transferring these rec ords to tracing cloth which may be handled without fear of breaking up through folding and then of the pieces getting lost.
 The records will be placed upon She cloth in sections about IS by 36 inches and these will then be bound together. making book about two inches thick, handy and convenient for reference and at the same time durable. Mir. Pitcher in transferring the records made 30 years ago is going over and checking off the numbers on each street and all new houses erected since that date are being accurately located and registered.
