e0-MILE WALK UNDERGROUND
Newspaper Mems Trip From CafskiI
Mountains to New York Without
Coming to Surface.

New YCrk.-Nowhere else in the
world would such a Journey be posi-
bic as that Of certain newspaper men
who walked underground from the
Catskill mountains to New York
through the new aqueduct II is their
plan not to ascend once to the surface
until the entire 80 miles has been COW
ered-if covered" is the proper verb
to apply to so remarkable a pathway.
London has 80 miles of subway
Paris 80. and New York itself a great
er mileage. But these subterranean
passageways we're each dug In the
vicinity of a common center. There
was no long haul from metropolitan
areas to complicate the problem OF
supplying materials and labor. 1t
would not be possible, OF course, to
travel 90 miles in one direction in any
Of these systems.
The Romans were great builders Of
aqueducts One of their works Is said
to have extended more than so miles
below the surface. But in capacity
and cost, and perhaps also In perma-
nence OF construction, they can be
credited with nothing that equals the
marvels of this time. In addition to
skyscraper structures and aircraft
that fly above the clouds, marvellous
achievements underground are includ-
ed In the present advance. Wild fowl
have been outstripped in the heights
and wonders impossible to the super
mole accomplished In the depths.
Modern ingenuity has so perfected
and expedited and cheapened tunnel
construction as to bring within reach
great benefits in public water supply,
land irrigation, and means of transit
and solve alike the difficult problems

last summer. when there was scare
ity Of the outdoor grown vegetables.
One noticeable thing about the let
tuce beds is the absence Of weeds.
This Is accomplished by sterilizing the
soil. Perforated pipes are laid in the
soil and 100 pounds Of live steam
turned into them. The steam heats up
the soil until It kills every weed seed
and every mold fungus This must be
done every year and sometimes oft
ener. TO keep down the fungus diseases
which would ruin the lettuce.

OF which Is covered by MS green

again the work is eliminated by the
use Of q wheeled scraper, which Is

The amount of heat that is derived
in a greenhouse from sunlight Is
amazing Even on winter days it is
not necessary to fire unless 1t Is
cloudy for the glass concentrates the
suns rays and warns the house. Snow
was melting off the roof Of the green
house the other day and the sun was
making the greenhouse plenty warm
and two ventilators were open at the

power boilers to heat the greenhouse

granted a permanent injunction In be-
half of the Centaur Company of New
York, the manufacturers of Fletcher's

Canptonville, CaI,-"There's plenty

he exhibited to his friends a nugget
of gold easily worth 800, and which
he picked up by the side OF the road
as he got off the stage he was driv-
ing to water his horses.
1t was a wet day and the roads
were very muddy. Meek's boots were
heavy, and he kicked some of the mud
off AS he did so he uncovered the
nugget. and there was no doubt as to
what 1t was.
This is not the first big nugget
picked up near the Jaynes place, and
prospectors have hung about there
for years, frequently succeeding in
securing good finds.

the suit, whose cut in itself is dis
tinguiShed.
l saw three unusual skirts to be
worn with separate waists. One was
trouser-skirt, which had the appear
ance of being made from piece of
material which passed from the waist
in front, between the ankles, and up
to the waist in the back. The two
selvages were sewed together on
either side, except at the bottom,
where space is left for the feet to go
through. These are extreme but
smart in their appearance, and very
comfortable, but, in reality, they give
no more width for walking than the
skirts which we have been wearing.
Another skirt hung straight and full
from the waist, with the fulness con-
fined at the bottom by a cuff of the
same. A white belt, running through
Sits of the goods were worn. Anoth-
er skirt was draped up in front by
means of one deep pleat across, which
gave place for pockets. In fact, al
most all of the skirts had pockets
somewhere.
For my second illustration l have
used a frock Of brocne taffeta. The
cut is unusually simple, but so smart
in its outline that IL ills the require
ments of the approved silhouette. The
bodice is loose and full, blOusing over
the waistiine. The skirt has its full
ness disposed Of in pleats. both front
and back, giving the simple but effec-
tive draping at the hips. The cuffs on
the short sleeves are cut circular,
curving upward on the top of the
sleeves, from under which falls frill
CT lace. The collar Of the organdy
chemisette is wireG to fare, picot-
edged, and fastened with tiny crochet
buttons.

gown is an example of the old-fash-

MASCULINE IN

IN TAILORED SUITS.
The Return of the Watteau
Hats.
NEW YORK, April Z, 1914.

Every French dressmaker has GER
ain characteristics which can hardly
De mistaken by the people who are
keeping a close watch upon the styles
and the different gowns put out by
each establishment.
Paquin, in her recent exhibition,
showed a decided tendency toward a
long, fiat back, and a greater fulness
at the sides of the skirts, making a
noticeable difference in the silhou-
cite.
Some of her new models had a
very bouffant effect at the hips, and
then a tightness below the knees
which flared out at either side at the
feet. This was usually caused by set
in pleats or ruff1es. This same cou-
turiere shows a decided fondness for
the high waistline.
