J Giant German Plane
! 165 Feet From Tip to Tip

BerlIn.--If the war lasted y
few months longer Germany was
prepared to surprise the world
with an enormous alrplane. The
J new giant of the air was planned
( by Harold Woltf, an engineer.
The new machine is nearly
1876 feet from wing tip to wing
tip, and stands more than %
feet in height. 1t has six me-
tors with total Of l,S00 horse
power, driving four propellers,
two of which are forward and
two eft. Each OF the propellers
has four blades. Two of the
motors, 1t is said, can stop 81
multaneously without affecting
any of the propellers or having
I any result except to reduce the
J speed OF the airplane.
Z Apart from its dimensions and
J power the new airplane is not
I only equipped with devices en-
! abling the pilots to know at all
\ times their altitude and angle OF
J elevation, but also with devices
\ to tell the absolute as well as
J the relative direction which, II
\ Is believed, will make flying pos
sible ON the darkest night and

$50 for a Kew.

A sign of the times is the advertise
ment which appeared a few days ago
in the Birmingham (Eng) Post, $50
offered for the key of a house on the
Hagley or Bristol roads. This sort of
inducement has been common enough
in regard to small house property. but
this Is the first time such an an
nouncement has applied to house in
the more opulent quarter of the city.
Before the war there were many
empty houses on the Hagley and Bris-
tol roads, and it seemed as II the old
time fashionable suburb was losing
its pre-eminence. And it is not mere
ly an ephemeral demand. Houses are
willingly taken on long leases. very
different from the short terms on
which tenants insisted five years ago.

RAILROAD SERVICE IN GREAT
NEED OF REFORM

other places besides Barre are com
planning about the poor train service
which was inaugurated, supposedly, as a
war measure, for we learn that Brattle-
boro, while not feeling such drastic cur
tailment as some towns, knows that
the present service does not compare
with that of two or three years ago" and
also that "the difference is not felt alone
by those who have occasion to travel
because the mail service is far from what
it used to be. If Brattleboro should feel
the same sensations as Barre it would
know what it is to do the hop-skip.and
jump or to experience long and tedious
delays incident to the consolidation of
passenger service on the Central Yer
mont and Montpelier & Wells River rail
road lines running into Barre from Mont
pelier
1t would puzzle a Philadelphia lawyer
to figure out what trains to take over
the Central Vermont railroad in order to
set foot on the trains Of the Montpelier
& Wells River railroad; and after the
puzzle has been cleared up to a seeming
certainty one is oftentimes forced to the
sad conclusion that the solutions of hui
man beings have nothing in common
with the plans of the railroads. Other
times, one is forced to take a train at
the Central Vermont station in Barre
and wait one, two or three hours in a
dismal waiting-room in Montpelier in or
der to meet up with train on the Mont
peIier & Wells River railroad; or, return
ing over the Montpelier & Wells River
railroad, one is compelled to waste val
liable time in Montpelier until a Central
Vermont train comes trundling along to
take one to Barre. Sometimes, becom-
ing veXed over the delays, few pas
sengers patronize the electric car service,
which, sad to relate, runs more infre-
quently now than it did before the cleo
tric railroad began to jack up its prices
All of which reminds that there is crying
need for reform in the passenger service
between Barre and Montpelier As it is
now, it is a disgrace to railroading

the dastardly deed? The echoes of the
great popular Indignation would have re-
verberated for weeks, so great would the
resentment have been; yet when bunch
Of so-called American women who want
to show their dislike for the president
parade through the principal streets Of
the national capital and then burn an
etigy of the president in a sort of iend-
ish snake dance, it is put down as a mere
yagary on the part of the women and is
considered from a legal standpoint as a
slight breach Of the peace worth about
10 minutes Imprisonment or a two-dollar
fine. It is rank discrimination and weak
inconsistency to condone the acts Of
these women and then almost to hang
and quarter the first alien who dares lift
his voice against the president, let alone
burn him in eiiigy.

THE LEAGUE OF NATIONS TAKING
SHAPE.

President Wilson is on the return voy-
age to the United States with the work
for which he went to Europe largely ac-
complished or in the line of being ac-
complished. That work was included in
the formation of a league of nations
which should endeavor to prevent all
wars, the idea having been born in the
contemplation of the awful slaughter
and destruction occasioned by the war
which is now being formally drawn to a
close. In order to fasten his ideas on the
leaders of the other nations of conse-
quence he felt it imperative that he
should be present at the conference and
that he should talk with those leaders
directly, while at the same time he might,
perhaps, influence public opinion in those
countries to a considerable extent in IA
vor Of such a solution Of international
troubles. So President Wilson, has at

long and earnestly with the leaders of
the prominent nations among the allies;
he has given ideas and he has received

The result of those conferences, Of
those discussions, of the visit of Presi.

found in the completed covenant of ma
tions which, if accepted by the major ma.
lions of the allies, will constitute the
nucleus of a great world influence. To
be sure, the league of nations is yet more

hope for it; but it is admitted that the

MUSIC LOVERS IN
SECOND CONCERT
Maud Powell Appears at Her
Best Before Splendid and APP
preciative Audience-Given
an Ovation.
BY MRS. J. G. GREEN.

A great audience filled the Pinney
theater Thursday evening to hear
Maud Powell the famous American
woman violinist in her second concert
mere. 1t was a responsive audience
and the gifted player received an ova-
ton each time she appeared until it
became an intense demonstration of
approval The program was brilliant,
satisfying, everything program
should be-
CONTINUOUS DELIGHT.
From the opening number Mozart,
Allegro Aperto, from Concerto in "A"
major to the last encore, the music
was one continuous delight, and the
audience voiced it's pleasure by FREE
Quent and enthusiastic applause. The
player responded not only graciously,
but with evident pleasure to the in
sistent demand for encores and gave
her hearers such gems as The Maid
ems WISH" II Would were a Bird"
(Chopfn) which Madam Powell refer
red to facetiously as having some con-
nection with an aviation field. The
Meditation from That's" was another.
One of the most interesting numbers,
perhaps, was the composition by a
very young Belgian who died at 20,
but left to the world the music which
was really a part of himself.
The Palmgren - Powell number,
Maynight, won unstinted applause,
as did the Song OF India" arranged
by Powell. Every number on the pro-
gram seemed to have been particular
~ and fortunately selected for that
very audience which drank in each
delicious tone, each soft, subtle vibra-
tion Of sound with urfeigned joy.
LIKE A MAGICIAN.
In her radiant gown, welding her
bow like magician of old, and send
ing forth waves of melody to ravish
the ears and hearts of her hearers, the
great violinist seemed to typify the
genius of music. The folk songs of
America, as Madam Powell designated
them, those ever popular productions
OF the CO.'S, "Old Kentucky Home"
Dixie" Arkansas Traveller and
"Steptoe" Gf memory serves aright,)
sent the adience wild with delight. The
Danish pianist. AXel Skjerne, played
fascinatingly and was warmly re-
ceived. 1t was an evening that will
linger long in memory and the joy of
1t will thrill and stir the hearts of
those who heard for years, to come.
