A Captain of Achievement at B.

John Hays Hammond. jr.. fur nishes substantial evidence that it is not always an unsurmountable handicap to be the son of a wealthy father. When a young man has so applied himself in his first six years out of college as to have worked out an invention that may reyolutionize naval warfare, it is proper to list him among the worlds captains of achievement.
 When. in addition to that. he has in prospect $z50.OOO as a tangible token of the appreciation of his work held by the government of which he is a citizen, this young man of 28 has gone far and ar rived It is assumed that his radio torpedo will do all that is claimed for it. else congress would not be thinking of paying three quarters of million dollars for the owner ship, and the patent offices of the United States and foreign coun- tries would not have granted the young inventor l28 patents.

ilous ins and Health.

Plans have just been completed for the erection of . series of model homes in the City of Washington for the purpose Of demonstrating 10 the nation the relationship be- tween good housing and good health. These are to be known as the Ellen Wilson homes. and are not in the nature of an experiment. but are intended as a demonstra- tion to the entire United States.
 The intimate connection between bad housing and bad health is clearly recognized in Washington where the alley dwellings have long been matter Of concern both to the health authorities and to public spirited citizens who wish the Capitol city to be an example to the nation. The allies have been paved, sewers and water mains have been laid in them. they are lighted and cleaned as are the Streets. Yekthey keep their old lead over the streets when 1t comes to totaling the figures for disease and death.
 Such houses as these cannot, of couse, yield the return upon the investment that the old houses did. In fact congress in it's act ineorpo 2 rating the Ellen Wilson homes. limited it's dividends to five per cent net. But they will yield to their stockholders a dividend in the form of satisfaction because of a needed work well done. To their tepants they will give relief from preyenta- ble sickness and death and an in-I crease in the joy o' living.

We May Soon Fly.

If the war has accomplished no. other useful end. 1t has advanced the progress of aviation many years. In the United States. with .out the spur of military and naval aeronautics, aviation was regarded as a profession of performers. whose main duty was to loop the loop and provide thrills for crowds. Now, with aircraft manufacturers turning out aeroplans at the rate of Is day. the public is beginning to realize that it is a remarkably healthy infant industry, closely rivalling the unprecedented growth of automobile-in sustry in it's early stages. One of the foremost aero- nautical experts in the country re- gently said to the writer:
 Within one year after the sign Ing of peace between the European powers, the first aeroplane will make a successful flight across the Atlantic ocean. Very soon aero planes will be carrying our mails to inaccessible spots. Shortly after this will come the carrying of pas sengers on a schedule as regular as that of our Twentieth Century limited Many of us will live to see the aerial expressed with many planes. multiple engines and an enormous carrying capacity. which VII take US to San Francisco or even to London and Paris as easily as we can now ride to Kansas City lin railway train.

 FIGURE ON ALFALFA.
 Very little alfalfa is grown in Ar kansas. Many people think it can not be grown in the state and yetin many counties may be found some most enthusiastic believers in al falfa. Much land may need drain age and much may need lime and most lands in Arkansas will de- mand inoculation. but alfalfa is worth considerable effort The Extension Service of the Universi- ty and U. s. Department of Agri- culture are anxious to have at least twelve men in each county in Ar kansas to try from one to five acres of alfalfa this year, seeding about the last of August or early in September. Select the ground now and blow it eight inches deep about two months be- fore seeding. See the county agent, or write Director of Exten- sion Service. old state house. Little Rock, for suggestions.

EPISCOPAL CLERGY
OF NORTH DAKOTA
IN SESSION HERE
Continued from page one).

Bishop Tyler occupied the forenoon
and early afternoon on Thursday with
addresses on yourselves and Our
Work" to the clergy and laity present.
The afternoon session was devoted to
conferences or Sunday school work
and laymen's and women's organiza-
tons in the church. In addition to
the clergy who spoke on the several
topics: Thos. Pugh of this city, fav-
ored the assembly with a talk on the
subject and Deaconess AIDA Knox,
who assists in the parish work at
Fargo, spoke to the women of the
church on their work, emphasizing the
value of little services.
A mission service was held on
Thursday evening and was opened by
the bishop. An address was given by
DR.: Beede Of Heckton on the Cannon
Church in the Consciousness of it's
Mission to the I~ndividual," and the
topic was extended to America and
to the world by Rev. Kloman of Far
go and Rev. Mckenzie of Minot, re-
spectively. Bishop Tyler then con-
Guided the service by a statement of
the progress of the church pension
fund for the aged clergy.
The concluding business of the
Glorious was done at the rectory
when the service was over. AS the
president of the organization had
moved from the state, DR.. J. S. Bray
field, formerly of this city, but now
having a charge at Jamestown, was
chosen to fill the office. The next
meeting will take place at Devils

oCratiC Column.
Chicago, Nov. 13.-UnoficiaI returns
from the various states of the popular
vote show:
For Hughes ............S,160,4 01
Wilson's lead ......... 403,312
Wilson's lead ......... 403,312

New York, Nov. 13.-The lead of
Woodrow Wilson over Charles E.
Hughes in the ace for president of
the United States has slowly increased
and seems to be determined definitely
by the latest returns. While Chair
man Wilcox of the Republican nation
al committee refuses to concede the
election of Mr.. Wilson, there appears
to be but little doubt that the Demo-
cratic nominee has won, with 276
electoral votes, possibly a few more.
Mr.. Hughes, while cheerful, is silent
on the situation and is understood
to have decided not to send congratu-
lations to Mr.. Wilson at present.
Minnesota is still in the doubtful
column, although Hughes is leading by
several hundred votes.
Certified returns from New Hamp-
shire show that Wilson leads with 50
votes, which means that Hughes has
lost the state.
Practically complete returns from
New Mexico show that Wilson has
won with a plurality of something like
LOO or 1900 votes.
In California Hughes now is a trife
more than 5000 votes behind Mr.. Will
son, and even the most enthusiastic
Republicans concede that he cannot
overcome this lead.
Many of the heavy bets on the re-
suit of the election are being paid in
this city and the losers have ceased
worrying, but now and then a case
comes to light whore the Hughes men
are holding out for official returns be.
fore they will admit they have lost.

NEW ENGLAND FIREMEN
FIGHT STUBBORN FIRE

A stubborn fire in the billiard hall
and bowling alley of the Kinnamon
building at New England was finally
gotten under control after a great
deal of hard work on the part Of the
fire department. The fire was caused
by a defective gas jet. A quantity of
gasoline leaked out on the floor and
burst into flames when the generator
was lighted. At first it seemed as
though the flames could be smothered
with a coat, but a spectator spoiled
the game by throwing on a pail of
water, which simply served to spread
the flames all over the place, as the
gasoline foated on top. of the water
and burned more briskly than before.
1t was a hard fire to fight owing to
the smoke and gas fumes, but the
firemen managed to keep the flames
confined to the basement, and that
without the use of much water. The
loss totaled about $1,000.
