Big Program

Plans are now being made by the

New York Landmarks Going.

The downtown" section of New
York is losing one Of its landmarks
by the demolition of the Eastern hotel
to make room for an Office building.
For nearly hundred years it has
been the favorite hostelry of American
seafaring folk. Dynamite Johnny
O'Brien, well-known for his practice Of
shipping arms to the Latin-American
countries, concocted many Of his fill
clustering schemes in this hotel, which
he made his headquarters.
One of the features of this build
ing was its beams of solid mahogany.
In 1922, when il was constructed, car
goes of supplies were frequently
shipped from New York to South
American ports, and when return
cargo could not be secured mahogany
was brought back, serving the purpose
of both cargo and ballast. These car
goes were sold cheaply, and were often
used in the construction of New York
buildings Of that period.

WAR MYSTERY MADE CLEAR
Men on the Leviathan Now Under
stand How Their Officers Detected
Them in Smoking.

Men who sailed on the Leviathan
when she was being used as trans
port will learn with interest the eX-
PLANTATION of mystery" of the giant
liner In those war days, mystery
which has been the subject of many a
midnight conference In the lee of the
deckhouse. Only recently former
officer of the Leviathan told the story.
1t appears that several of the crew
sought lower hold far from the
haunts of the officers on duty and
there, believing themselves carefully
concealed, they smoked to their hearts
content. But the ship had fire de-
lection system consisting of a series Of
pipes TO the holds, through which a
suction fan Is continually drawing air
samples to the wheelhOuse. Thus the
officer on duty there noticed the curl
Ing wisps of smoke coming out ofathe
pipe from one of the lower holds.
Shifting the smoke he detected the old
familiar odOr of tobacco.
1t was an easy matter to hurry
and start them on q round of extra
duty, which cured them of smoking
aboard ship. They were puzzled to
know how the officer had traced them.
The hold was way down near the keel,
far from the wheelhouse and there had
not been another man within many
yards of their position. They knew
no officer had followed them and they
took it for granted that there was no
direct connection between the hold
and the wheelhOuse. And no one en-
lighteled them during many trips to
France.-New York Evening Post.

The school heads admit they are

Sufficient school buildings to take

of electricity because of the irregular
ity of the air currents, but this has

Instead Of being directly connected

the mill-wheel shaft Is geared to a
hosting device, which serves TO ele-
vate a two-ton weight to the top Of a
53-fOot steel and wood tower. When
the weight reaches the maximum
height, 1t is released. and, as 1t falls,
