four years of that time in Los An

been a Republican. He is hustler

that the city would move some under
his influence.

MultimiIIionaire in Novels.

Ro3er. Herrick in The January Yale
Review: The life of our rich, espe-
cially in the great cities, has been
much exploited by the large tribe Cd
journalistic novelists. American life as
ILLUSTRATED in popular commercial fc-
ton abounds superabundantly in men
servants, private cars, yachts, clubs,
international marriages, spectacular
luxury and display-all Of which is
quite foreign to the experience Of the
majority Of readers and, we may suS-
pect, to that of the writer's themselves.
Our luxury, it seems to me. is the most
unreal thing about us as a people; in
all the f1uX of our social background
the most ncertain and ephemeral-the
most uncharacteristic. And yet our
newspapers, magazines and novels are
almost insanely preoccupied with
American wealth. AS an economic
phenomenon, evidence of a redundant
vitality, it is certainly marvellous. AS
literary material it has proved barren.
The figure of the captain of industry"
tina: self-made and badly-made hero
has been done to death in our nov
els. Bat l cannot remember a single
multimillionaire who has established
himself as a Veritable person in all
our fiction,

The Last Of the Landlords.

New York World: Simeon Ford's
speech to the hotel men was no laugh
ing matter. It is a sad, sad truth
that every new hotel is built to cater
to the wealthy. and they live by steal
ing each others %boarders." 1t is bust
ness sagacity. and no joke. to advise a
younger man to Ego off on a side street
and put UP at q plain hotel with 1000
hygienic cells at 81 a day. New York
needs such hotels. and it does not need
more palaces. Plenty Of Americans
would appreciate something between
a Bowery lodging house and the Ritz
Carlton.
A melancholy spectacle is Simeon
Ford. the last of the landlords. His
successors are all captains of indus
try. To have kept a real hotel and
never charged. the public for bread
and butter. or for hanging up their
hats and coats" is a useful and honor
able career. When one or two more
such old fashioned hotels are closed
the Cosmopolitan was the last to let
go-the plain man, as Mr.. Ford re-
marks, will have no place to lay his
head. r,.
The "early Victorian, pitcher-and-
.lowl. observation-disclosures, no-hot-
fatirons- the bedrooms" hotel can
be improved upon in some respects by
modern invention. But it had it's viz
tues: a man could stay overnight
without mortgaging his farm, get
plain food passably cooked, know the
landlord personally and not be subject
to organized robbery at every step.
People who are neither hoboes nor
m%illionaires will wish that modern
hosts might study the secrets of it's
success.

Unpleasant Moments ii the Life
Of a Flier-When the Motor Stops

The late Hubert Latham's-one may
recall-let him down into the channel
upon both his attempts.
But nowadays the cross-channel
flight is made SO often, and without
mishap, hat it has ceased to attract
more than casual interest. Instead of
descending involuntarily on the tops Of
trees and houses, and into rivers and
seas, pilots have today as much conf
dence in the engines of their air craft
as in those Of their motorcars. At first,
built with extreme lightness and run
ming continually at high speed, aero
plane motors were always in trouble
o~yerheating, bursting cylinders, or
breaking some small working part. In
their experimental stage, in fact, they
were nothing more than motorcar en-
gines, ruthlessly lightened. But now
experience has taught their builders
lessons. They produce a piece of me-
| chanism designed specially for the
air. which is light where weight may
be spared and strong where practice
has shown that heavy stresses fall.
There is no need, though, to limit
oneself to a. single motor when flying.
Biplanes have been equipped, already,
with a w plant comprising two en-
gines: and a large waterplane has
flown with three. With such a dual
or treble motive power, should one en-
CINE fail. the other will maintain the
machine in flight. When commercial
~aeroplanes carry passengers and
| goods, as they will by a process of
! development, engines in series Will be
fitted and mechanical breakdown be-
come almost impossible.

Kitchens and Yards.

Des Moines Register and Leader:
Says a writer upon the real art of do
nestle enjoyment, Home lies mostly
in the kitchen and the back yard"
And one knows Immediately the sort
of nominees, the type of home, which
the author has in mind. And there is
something refreshing just in the
thought Of it. A place where the pri-
mary interests of life are not. too
deeply obscured by the things which
we have put about them a house
where one sees glimpses of the culin-
airy processes, where one knows by
actual eyewitness what is going to be
had for dinner.
1t was this type of home which lay
at the bottom of our fundamental
American strength. 1t was the pioneer
habit of associating with rude actuali-
ties which bred a wholesome sturdi-
ness and somplicity which we al i'll
afford to lose. Something of the charm
Of an old-fashioned kitchen with
warmth and sunshine and open win
dows, something of the democracy OF
an intimate touch with production and
life that radiates genuine comfort, is
needed in our present somewhat jum-
bled scheme of things. (
Not that we are without. kitchens
and back yards and even vegetable
gardens. But We are inclined over
much in the direction Of cramped or
even elegant apartments of the com
plicated households just a shade be-
yond our grasp, of e~xtravagant tastes
which are out of accord with our
economic power of production. We
need to return in spirit and in truth
to some of, the vanishing simplicity of
the old-fashioned kitchen and the
.neighborly, intimate, currant bush
type of sunshiny back yard.

TO REMODEL The CITY JAIL
Board of Control Reasonable in Its
Demands, New Courtroom and Off
ces Included in improvements.

Mayor Beck, Alderman Costain and
Leslie Weller, president Of the COM
mercial club, had a conference yes
terday with the state board of control
in regard to the improvements and
changes to the Moorhead city Jail
asked for by the state authorities SO
that the building and jail require
ments better conform to the provisions
Of the state law than they do now.
The conditions and jail demands were
fully explained by the committee, the
members of which stated that the
building with the exception of a few
minor matters met all reasonable de-
mands, except during the fall months
when large numbers of the it~inerant
classes passed to and fro, working in
the harvest fields and made Moor
head and close by towns a rendezvous
and created more or less trouble for
the local police department which for
several weeks was required to care for
large numbers of men of the DRINKS
and vagrant types, and men who are
natural born disturbers. -
Mayor Beck says that the jail
proper is deemed plenty large enough,
but the quarters for tramps and con-
f1rmed Migrants must be enlarged and
better sanitary conditions supplied.
Also a properly. appointed courtroom
will be arranged for, as well as priv
ate offices for the chief Of police and
justices there being now an entire
absence of quarters. for confidential
conferences between the public. attor-
neys and chief of police or members
of the force.
The manager says two members of
the board of control will visit Moor
head shortly when, the proposed plans
of changes will be submitted.

An actor who calls himself Lou
Tellegen has jumped into New.
York society over night-a feat
which some others have tried for
years without success. And this
am about largely, because he
wore an anklet in public. That is,
his likeable qualities would not
have been noticed had his ankle
not been seen first.
Tellegen says he studied mill
tary science at st. Cyr and
sculpture under Rodin, after which
he went to Brazil to dig for gold.
Then he became an actor on
Broadway and appeared in Maria
Rosa. His work attracted atten-
ton at once and he won high
praise. But his acting would not
have won him a place in New
York society. One of the DANES
Of that peculiar institution saw
him dancing the tango wearing
the anklet. OF course he was
graceful and a fine dancer, and
altogether a good looking fellow.
She raved over him and he was
introduced. From that he was in
vited to social affairs, and now he
is busy in society when he is not
on the stage. 80.
