WANNAMAkER'S Filler
Will Keep on Building Until the Ocean
is Crossed.

Rodman Wanamaker told Glenn II.
Curtiss the other day that II the over
ocean fier Mr.. Curtiss is building, did
not cross the Atlantic in the first at
tempt, he wanted to keep on trying
until the machine is piloted from
Newfoundland to the Irish coast in
single flight.
Mr.. Wanamaker does not want to
back failure, Mr.. Curtiss said, and
he is going to take no chances. he
expects to get the Lord Northcliffe
$4,000 prize, If several attempts have
to be made.
Nothing that will make for the ulti-
mate success of the project Is being
left undone. Mr.. Curtiss and several
of his mechanics will spend a month
or more at the starting place in New
foundland. The huge fiier will get
several trials there and a small scout
aeroplane will be used to test wind
currents. 1t is probable that two or
more balloons will also be used in
ttneSe tests.
The Wanamaker fiier will be COM
pletely built and tried out at Ham
mondsport. y. Y. according to Mr..
Curtiss. 1t has been suggested that
the machine would have to be as
sembled at the starting point in New
foundland to avoid the Wright patent
decision.
This transatlantic flier will not in

Wright" he said. 1T will be In

to fly around corners with it.

built. one Of them will be worn out
i'm the trials and the other will make

There have been constant rumors
that on account of the recent patent
decision in favor Of Orville Wright
the Curtiss plant would be moved
abroad. Mr. Curtiss made 1t plain
that he did not contemplate any such
move.-New York Times.

NO COLOR LINE IN HAITI.
Where the Black Man Is Boss In the
Little Island Republic.

In Haiti, color prejudice as prob
lem is nonexistent. There is no doubt
that prejudice itself exists, but in
remarkably quiet and unobtrusive
form. Any open expression Of thii
feeling is so sharply resented that II
Is always safer to conceal it under a
cloak of politeness. The "blancs,
as the whites are called in Haiti, enjoy
a certain prestige, due not so much
to their color, as to the fact that all
or nearly all whites here are more OF
less capitalists. or hold well-paid po-
sitions. And in Haiti. like all over
the world, money counts. This prest-
ige, however, is by no means accept
ed by the Haitians as a mark Of racial
superiority, and any such interpreta-
ton Is likely to receive a rude con-
tradiction.
The arrogance Of the European In
Africa and the East would most likely
be fatal to him were he to try and in
dulge in it in this country. The writ
er, a colored man, sometimes recalls
with amusement. the pathetic remark

TIlLMAN ON EATING
Says Many Senators Dig Their Graves
With Their Teeth.

| WIN tHcIT fo6kUs
Senator's have been discussing with
unusual interest Senator Tillman's de-
claration in his address on his nom
smoking resolution, that he believed
he could lengthen the life of every man
| in the chamber IF l could only get
them to believe what l tell them and
follow my advice" The South Caro-
! lima senator asserted his colleagues
ate too much. Since was paralyzed
four years ago and read my own obit-
uary," he said, "twenty-one senator's,
including Vice President Sherman,
most of them younger than l. have
died"
A fitting epitaph, he said, for sena-
tors who have died in service would be
'he lived not wisely, but too well, and
killed himself eating"
There Is no doubt to my mind that
this great mortality among us Is due
to the way we live in Washington" de-
clared Mr. Tillman. There Is con-
tinuous succession OF banquets, din
ners and receptions. Automobiles and
street cars are used by senators in
stead of walking, and pure air and
sunshine are things Of which we get
too little"
Continuing, Senator Tillman said:
Tobacco, I have been told by ply
sicians, Is a narcotic or sedative, while
whisky Is a stimulant, as everyone
knows. Many men use both, and are
constantly on the journey from the
garret to the cellar and back, being
whip sawed and their nerves racked
by the constant conflict going on in
their system, while the stimulant and
the sedative contend for mastery. 1t
is the abuse, not the use Of whisky and
tobacco that is so dangerous to health,
for in moderation they are both harm
less, think.
"Since my illness four years ago, l
have learned more about the human
body than during all the balance of my
life put together and am sure I dis
covered some of the secrets Of nature
and laws Of health Of which most men
know nothing whatever. The pity OF

imously adopted, forbids smoking dur

been forced to leave the chamber and
the caucus room during secret sessions
because he could not endure the fumes
of tobacco.

FRENCH GIRLS AWAKEN
Want to Have Something to Say In
Choice of Husbands.

Want to Have Something to Say In
Choice of Husbands.
The views of the modern French
girl in regard to matrimony are un-
dergoing a remarkable change. There
was time when she was content to
accept the eligible parti chosen for her
by her father and mother without
question or comment, but now she is
evidently awakening to the fact that
it is an unfair matrimonial compact
in which all the good qualities are ex-
pected from the wife, whilst in the
husband most defects Of character are
counted as nil so long as he brings
good position and sufficient money to
complete the bargain.
The French girl Of today is rebelling
against this point Of view-in fact,
judging from the present trend OF
events, she bids fair, in the course OF
years, to vie with her American sister
in independence Of spirit. No longer
is marriage her only aim in life, and so
she chooses carefully and requires
special qualities in the man she is go
ing to wed.
Recently a Paris paper set itself the
task OF finding out the French girls
ideal of a model husband by pro-
pounding a number of questions for
unmarried girls. In the answers to
these questions the modern demoi-
selle's ideas on marriage are clearly
revealed.
To the question, do you wish to
marry?" the consensus Of answers was
Yes" and as some emphatically put
it, Yes, of course"
All were insistent on certain special
qualities they wished to find in the
man of their choice. Many urged the
necessity of intelligence and energy
others looked for health, physical bal
ance, and moral uprightness, whilst
others again looked upon tenderness
without sentimentality as a necessity.
If a man shows that he can smile
sweetly whilst struggling with collar

TaIlest Jail in the Worid.-Plans

Tallest Jail in the Worid.-Plans
are practically completed for a sky
scrapcr Jail which the city will erect
on the site of the old Tenderloin po-
lice station in Thirtieth street near
Sixth avenue. The building will be IA
stories tall, and according to Griffin &
Wynkoop, who made the plans. will
cost about s45O,000. That sum was ap-
propriated for the structure by the
board of estimate at the suggestion OF
former Borough President McAneny.
Some of the city officials are active
now in an effort to have the legisla-
ture pass a bill limiting the height OF
buildings in this city, but they hope to
get the new city Jail under way before
such a law goes into effect.
This Jail will be the highest building
OF it's kind in the world. 1t will have a
frontage of 75 feet and a depth Of 10J
feet. 1t is planned chiefly for the care
of women prisoners. Several floors
will be given over to court rooms, de-
tention rooms and offices for those in
the charities department who look af-
ter the welfare Of women prisoners
The building will be of limestone and
terra cotta.-New York Sun.

President Wilson and the Telephone

President Wilson and the Telephone
One Of the pleasant features Of be-
ing president of the United States Is
the fact that one does not have to dc
much talking over the telephone. Ow-
ing to that happy circumstance pres
ident can save a great deal Of weal
and tear on his temper in the course
Of q day.
Every effort is made to shield the
president from the deadly telephone
He talks over the phone to cabinet Of
ficers nearly every day, but that about
let's him out.
The average senator doubtless feels
that he Is fairly important feature
of the cosmos, and yet he Is likely tc
find some difficulty in placing himself
into telephone communication with
the president If the matter Is Of the
utmost importance, that is considered
all the more reason why the president
should not talk about 1t over the
phone, and If 1t is not important, that
too, is a perfectly valid reason. why he
should shun the phone.
Occasionally a senator will grasp a
phone and ask for the president in ar
urgent tone, intended to convey the
impression that the national honor de-
pends on the two holding an immedi-
diate conversation. But even then the
presidents buffers make a concerted
effort to persuade the senator to send
his message through one Of the White
House secretaries, or else write note
or drop in and see the president face
to face.
Ordinarily the president will talk by
phone less than half dozen times
day, and perhaps more than half OF
those calls will be initiated by himself

while on a trip to America. These
people," said the American, referring
TO the Haitians, like respect" His
dignity as white man must have re-
ceived some rude shocks. / suggest
ed to him that he might have given
them some lessons while ashore.
Without going into details ] can
vouch for the following incidents,
showing the way in which Haitians
resent an indignity: For a kick, a
white man was shot dead; another
was dubbed by the man whom he
kicked; yet another was mobbed by
workmen for kicking one Of their
number. Two captains were badly
beaten for using contemptous express
sions about the blacks; another
blanc" had his nose broken for the
offense, etc. These are only some Of
the instances that can be related Of
Haiti. Please note that in the first
three instances the Haitians were men
OF the laboring class. Indeed, to kick
or slap Haitian OF the upper or mid
die class invariably means a resort to
arms. and the death or severe injury
of one, or perhaps both Of the prin-
cipals. The consequence of this Is
that in this country, where color in
science is so vigorously resented, the
white residents are careful not to
make a parade Of 1t; for what's the
use Of expressing contempt Of people
when you are likely to have to fight
each time you do so, especially when
the odds are 80 heavy against you?
And then Haitian government admin
istrators do not understand the dog
ma Of maintaining the prestige of
the white man."-African Times

NO CRIMINAL GLASS;
Lombroso's Theory Shattered by Brit.
ish lnvestiu ator.

Lombroso's Theory Shattered by Brit
ish Investigator.
Delayed but expected shattering Of
the Lombroso theory that there exists
a criminal class" Of the human race
has come. Statistical information, the
gathering of which began twelve years
ago by Doctor Goring, British medi-
cal expert, who has made criminology
a special study, furnishes the hammer
Of demolition, says the Cincinnati En-
quirer. Crime, contends the investiga-
tor, does not reveal itself in mans
outward visage. Measurements, made
after Lombroso's prescription, disclose
that the English prison inmate and
lawbreaker possesses only one distinct,
general mark Of differentiation-he is
deficient in height, weight stature and
mental capacity, as compared to the
rest Of the community. In skull meas
urements the criminal does not differ
perceptibly from the Oxford or Cam
bridge undergraduate student, the
mean head indexes being almost iden-
tical. Low foreheads do not connote
criminality. nor, conversely, are high
foreheads tokens Of intelligence with
in.
Curiously enough criminals who use
force, such as thieves and burglars, are
exceptionally puny, while those who
use cunning and deception, such as
forgers and swindlers, are as tall and
as heavy as the average man. Doctor
Goring submits the explanation that
the last named class is usually drawn
from a better nourished and better
housed portion Of the population. In
reasoning upon his statistical facts the
British expert cites the valuable and
even prepondering fact that height and
weight are endowments which readily
enable man to obtain employment.
Being deficient in them his chances
for honest work are reduced. Pursing
this acceptable conclusion, DIR. Goring
shows that heredity in crime, so called,
follows the natural law Of production,
low stature being transmitted to chill
dren by their parents. The same tables
of laboriously compiled statistics in
dicate that the health Of the criminal
appears to have no effect upon his dis
position toward crime. AS for drink,
accredited universally as the greatest
agent Of criminality. Doctor Goring
finds that the labelling is unwarranted.
except in the cases Of violent offenses
against the person.
His final conclusion is, when viewed
with the fine spun stuff Of criminoli-
gists of the hysterical school and only
partly developed psychologists, abso-
lutely startling upon first reading.
1.-The thing which we call criminality
and which leads to the preparation Of
many, II not most, anti-social offenses
today, is not inherent wickedness, but
natural stupidity"
In other words, the lawbreaker Is a
fool. When the rewards Of criminal
habit or life are considered the sound
ness Of this conclusion will grow in
strength. The work Of Doctor Goring
will be welcomed by all students Of
these matters as the first attempt to
arrive at results in criminology by
the statistical treatment Of facts which
in a crude form, are without scientific
value.
