Testing Strength of Concrete.

AS the strength of a concrete mix
ture is much affected by the amount
of water contained, the novel appa-
ratus Of the United States bureau Of
standards is designed to give an ac-
curate test of the fluidity of flow. A
circular tabletop mounted on plum
ger is raised and dropped half an inch
by a cam on the shaft of q hand
crank. A sample of the mixture, mold
ed into a truncated cone inches tall
and 8 to II inches in diameter, is
placed in the center of the table, and
the crank is given Is revolutions The
average diameter to which the sam
pie is spread out is divided by the
original diameter and multiplied by
100. The result is the flOwability num-
ber-150 indicating a strong material
for bricks, and 225 one suitable for
reinforced concrete.

New Invention Produces Stereoscopic
Effect and Gives Fine
View From Side.

One OF the most remarkable inno-
vations in the entire history of motion
picture exhibition was installed at
Loew's Palace Theater during the
past week. This innovation consists
OF a new type of screen which makes
IL possible to sit far to either right
and yet see the photoplay scene With
out the slightest appearance of DIS
tortion.
This screen-popularly known as
tho glifograph screens based on
the discovery of French scientist,
who has proved TO optical experts
that the human eye does not actu-
ally sec an image stereoscopcally--
or in other words, like you used to
look at pictures of Niagara Falls
through the old-fashioned stereoscopo
in grandmothcr's parlor--but that
the effect of the stereoscope, which
enables the eye to judge distance be-
tween objects is attained by A dis
torted optical Illusion which accom-
plishes the same results.

the left or right of the auditorium at
the Palace and view the picture just
as well as though you occupied the
Furthermore, instead OF seeing a
mere fat Photographic image pro-
Jected upon a white screen, YOU Wit
ness an actual scene in which the
distance and depth between moving
figures is clearly apparent and which
figures become startlingly lifelikc.

UNIQUE THEATER
New House to Open Here Next
Fall Will Have Many Novel
- Features.

Announcement Of plans for a big
new motion picture house OF unique
design and POLICY have been ar
nounced by Tom Moore, owner OF the
Garden, Strand and Rialto Thcaters.
The new theater. which Mr. Moore
plans TO open next October, viii be
unlike any other house in the country
and will embody many unusual and
heretofore unheard-of features One
important innovation Will be n policy
OF running only twelve pictures a
year--one month runs.
Here's what Tom Moore said when
asked about the new house:
81 have something entirely new in
mind. l shall have a stage 100 feet
wide and so feet deep, with no pro-
scenium arch. l shall use big trees
to break the theater off from the
stage, and tho back wall, right up
to the roof, will be done artistically.
and made to represent mountain tops
etc. Thus. we can arrange our
lighting effects TO set off the noun
tain tops at different periods of the
day and night. Star effects, and moon
effects. will be shown.
$50. you see, ] shall have plenty OF
space to work in for effects and ]
Sndll use ne" luea III a screen, j
hope" Tom went on. TT has seemed
TO me that the general idea OF short
runs is all wrong, and l shall try to
show the practicability (ana profit
of booking a good picture for a month
twelve shows a year. or course
they will have to be pictures that will
stand up under my test. and / feel
entirely confident the public will sup
port me.
1.-THE general idea now Is 20 book q
show for a week, and take II of. The
show may be doing record business
but off IL comes.
81 can't get any ideas in New
York, 80 | don't pay much attention
to those theatcrs. i pretty nearly al
ways get eye-strain and headache
when I'm at those big houses The
projection Is generally always faulty
and the operators seem to be always
rushing things along, and the pic
lures jump.
Some pictures can run longer than
a month, / find. Every good picture
ought to get a good, long FUN"
