WORK WAS MEANT TO LAST
euiidsrs Of csntur.ss Ago Dss.Snsd
Structures That Wsrs intended
to D. Permanent.

A real estate man will declare that
an ordinary residence eight or ten
years of age is getting old. 1t is
probably a reflection on ordinary
residences, not on him. Too many
modern houses are built for prcma-
ture decrepitude.
The woodwork about the roof OF
Westminster hall. in London. which
was put in place during the last quar-
ter of the fourteenth century, needs
repair. Parliament, which meets in
an adjacent structure, has undertak-
en- to repair the damage and the
other day thirty ovcralled but dig
nificd British lawmakers climbed
ladders to inspect conditions. The
chief difficulty is that wood-boring
insects have been at work on tho
ancient structure.
Imagine woodwork three centuries
and quarter old, which was put to-
gcthcr without the assistance Of
nail or a single bit of metal, that
still is in good enough condition to
be repaired virtually without sub
stitution. Builders Of modern homes
might with profit. study the roof Of
Westminster hall.

lonq Words.

While our language does not contain
such long words as are found in some
other tongues nor so many words OF
unusual length, still we have several
that are awkwardly long for conversa-
tional purposes. We have 'philopro-
genitiveness," with twenty letters; lin
responsibilities" with twenty-one;
Observation-Disclosures" with twenty
two; Observation-Disclosures" with
twenty-three, and ''transsubstantiation-
alists' and ''contradistinguishability,"
each containing twenty-four letters. An
effective little word is 'isynacategore-
matte" as it manages to compress
eight syllables into seventeen letters.
The longest monosyllables cOntaip
nine letters, and there are four ex-
amples: "splOtched," 'squelched,"
strengths" and stretched" New

Beethoven's moonlight Sonata"

The story runs that Beethoyens
Moonlight Sonata"-always so called.
though he so rarely gave a descriptive
name to any of his works-was COM
posed on an occasion when he had
been playing to some stranger ok
by chance. Walking with a friend. he
overheard in a humble house some
one playing with much feeling a bit
Of one Of his sonatas. He paused to
listen. In q mament the music ceased.
and a girl spoke longingly Of her wish
to heal some really good concert. The
voice was SO appealing that the COM
poser stepped without hesitation to
the door and knocked. Admitted to
the wondering host, he said, Il will
play for you" and played wonder
fully till the lamp burned out. Then
with the moonlight filling the room he
began to improvise-the mysterious
delicate b~reathings Of the beginning
Of that wonderful sonata, then the
tricksy elf-like second part, and the
glory Of the close.-Christian Science

Incompetent Legislative Employees

Reno Gazette: The question of patronage in the Legislature is
already under discussion in many quarters. The Gazette is not urg-
ing the appointment of any man to any position, but with others
in the State it is hopeful that the errors of recent sessions may be
avoided, The Legislature owes no man anything in the way Of ap-
pointment. but it owes the people of the State very much. and it
owes itself very much, in the way of efficiency. If we could pub
fish a report that would correctly state in dollars and cents the cost
to the people of Nevada through the employment of incompetents
in Legislative clerkships, it would be appalling. Thousands of dol
lars have been spent in litigation. property rights have been tiled
up" the Supreme Court has been appealed to many times, by res-
son of incompetent or Indifferent Legislative employees. Governors
have been embarrassed, legislators themselves have been discred-
tied through incompetency or indifference.
There are capable men in the State who can do this work.

cost will be less in the case of the competent ind the only cost
The first cost will not be the only cost in the case of the incompe-
tent; and nobody can estimate the subsequent cost.
The directors of the Con. Virginia Mining Company have de-
cided to reduce the capitalization of the company from 2l6,00O
shares of the par value of IS per share to $4,000 shares of the
value of 81 per share, says the Virginia Chronicle. This action was
taken to reduce the companys payment under the new war tax law,
which places a stamp tax of two cents per share on each 500 of
par valuation in all stock transactions. 1t is probable that similar
action will be taken by other mining companies in the near future.
