FIND RELIC OF OLD LONDON
Arch Of Bridge Which Must Have seea
Built Centuries Ago Just
Brought to Life.

A very Interesting relic Of old Lon-
don has come to light, according to
the London Times, an arch Of old Loo
don bridge, which was demolished dur
ing the construction of the new Lon
don bridge, which began In 1925. The
arch now discovered Is the second from
the north side of the old bridge, and
Is close to st. Magnus' church. 1t was
disclosed during some building opera
tons now In progress.
The first stone bridge over the
Thames was built in 1176, but the
bridge was constantly repaired and
restored, so that there Is no evidence
Of the exact date Of this particular
arch. It was apparently medieval, ana
is built of Reigate stone with a very
fat trajectory. At the beginning of the
Eighteenth century however, three fiat
wrought-stone supporting ribs were
put in, and the middle one of these is
dated 1703. The arch Is not yet en-
drely uncovered, but springer at each
side is just being disclosed, and the
span Is estimated to be about 80 foot
The under surface Of the arch is con-
siderably waterworn between the add
ed ribs. It Is one of the arches close
to which the mill wheel stood for the
raising of water into the watertewer
that stood alongside the bridge. This
arch stood in the river, and Is, there
fore, an evidence Of the limits which.
as time has gone on, have been i'm
| posed on the Thames, the river being
now much narrower than it was In
medieval times. 1t Is understood that
| this relic of old London is to be care
| edlly preserved.

Wallace NuttingS' book on Fur
allure of the Pilgrim Century is an
argument to disprove the fallacy that
the Puritans were insensible TO beauty
and art.
Of the rugged substantial relics
Of their building, Mr.. Nutting says,
There is Solidity in them, durability.
freedom from caprice, and an express
sion of that sober nationality every
where characteristic of the Puritan
genius.
For adaptation to climate, wise use
of accessible materials, inner coma
venience obtained at low cost and
freedom from discordant lines, Puritan
domestic architecture deserves high
praise"
This is no less true of their furni
ture accessories. 1t is wrong to as
sumo that their austerity and sim
plicity were forced upon them by mere
hardship. Rather were they the out
ward expression of an inner nobility
and spiritual eXaltation.

ers will tackle. A hobo will only bum
when he is down and out and can't
work out a meal"
Denver Dutchy said many other
things. Subsequent investigation finds
that he Is correct. The hobo is Il
worker.
Conditions on the road are pitiful.
In parts of the country where the I'M
employment situation is not critical
the life is not so hard, but in portions
where it is, as in the entire Southwest,
many hobos are leading a life that is
really worse than that Of a hunted
animal. Railroad detectives and spe-
cial agents chase them off trains and
out of railroad yards and the local
police order them out of towns or
arrest them for vagrancy.
Drastic Laws Against Them.
Many states, especially Texas, have
drastic laws under which a man must
serve from one to eleven months on
road chain gangs If found guilty of
vagrancy. This punishment has made
many men bitter against the police
and citizens of many cities, and agita-
tors and agents of several radical or
CARNATIONS are using this fact as an
al gument toward enlisting hobos to
their various causes. In the North
vest, posted at nearly every impor-
tant freight division point, are repre-
s~entatives of the /. w. w. who solicit
and often succeed in enrolling hobos
for "red cards" on the strength of this
argument alone. They hold the fed
eral administrator responsible in a
large measure for national unemploy-
ment.
Here's a land of plenty they say.
You, a human being must wander
through 1t starving, cold and tired
with no place to lay your head. An
alley cat or stray dog is better off
than you are"
Few people realize what segrega-
ton of these two or three million idle
men would mean If there were not
these hGbos swarming in hordes over
the railroads in every section of the
Union, the unemployed permanent resi-
dents of most of the cities and towns
would have less chance of getting POI
sitions. The city man should be thank
full that there are hobos in times when
work is plentiful.
Outlook Bad for 1922.
The outlook for 1922 is u~nfavorable.
especially for the winter With so
many mines and mills shut down, and
with the harvest season and o
struction jobs nearly over, 1t Will not
be long before several hundred thou
sand hobos will again have to "hit the
road" Most old-timers predict a win
ter that will be worse than last year,
one that brought much suffering.
Jails will have to be thrown open
and winter quarters provided as well
as bread lines formed.

not to try to beat their way anywhere

S20,0OO,o00 LIMIT ON
LOANS TO BE ASKED

Bismarck, Feb. 28.-The proposed
initiative law to be submitted to vot-
ers at the June primary raising the
limit of total amount of real estate
loans which may be made through the
state, will ask an increase in the
authorized amount from $10,000,O00
to $2O,O00,O0O. -.
The state industrial commission, in
meeting here, adopted a resolution
placing in definite form previously
announced proposals of the commits
sion to increase the limit. 1t is pro-
posed, Gov. R. A. Nestos said, to in
crease the limit of $2O,0O0,00 in or
der to provide for the probable
amount of loans which might be made
between now and the time the legis-
lature shall meet and take action.
There has been approximately ST.
100000 loans made under the pres
ent authorization Of $4,000, 900. APP
plications on hand for new loans in
the farm loan department of the Bank
of North Dakota now approximate
SO, 900. Under the present auth
orization the amount of loan appllca-
lions now on hand, would have to be
decreased if all loans are made.
