PUD TO EQUIP PLANES WITH SLEEPIN6 BERTHS Engineers Say Fast Trains Be tween New York and Chicago Face Competition. New York.—Engineers are studying the problem of sleeping berths on air planes, It was revealed recently in a report by Archibald Black and Iumaid K. Black, aeronautical engineers of Garden City, L. I., at the forty-fourth annual meeting of (he American So ciety of Mechanical Engineers at 29 West Thlrty-uinth street. Railroads are on the verge of air competition that seriously will menace their extra-fare train traffic, the re port declares, and this competition will appear between New York and Chi cago when costs can he brought down by a headway of at least 50 airplanes daily each way. “It would seem," the report states, “that there Is a reasonable probability of a headway of 50 planes a day being reached in 15 or 20 years after the ■tart of operations, and it is quite pos •Ible for this headway to be reached in a* little as ten years.” At least one commercial line wilt be operating a packet service between New York and Chicago within the next two to live years, according to the re port, which says night air service could practically eliminate competing night-letter telegraph service for dis tances up to about 1,200 miles. The most logical development, it adds, would be for the railroads and telegraph companies to take over the development of airplane transporta tion and conduct it parallel with their other activities. Ghostly Noises Reveal Lost Carrier Pigeon New York.—A lost carrier pigeou. which fell down a chimney and for four days furnished a first-class imita tion of a ghost, was found recently in the home of Abram Wosnitzer, hat manufacturer, of No. 743 Clinton ave nue. The Wosnltzers and their four chil dren began to hear strange noises above their living room fireplace Sat- j urday. The family dog investigated j and the noises increased. They oc curred at Intervals night and day. Mrs. Wosnitzer became so nervous that plans were made to tear down the chimney, when a door above the mantle was opened and the bedrag gled, tired pigeon flopped into the middle of the room. The pigeon was identified by leg bands as belonging to William Holver of No. 316 Old Bergen street, Jersey City. Holver, a fireman of Engine Company No. 15, Is a member of the Jersey City Racing Pigeon club. The bird was one of twenty racing from Washington to Jersey City. Physiologist Wins Nobel Medicine Prize London.—Professor A. V. Hill, pro fessor of physiology at Manchester university In England and widely j known as an authority on this study has been awarded the Nobel prize for medicine. First Soldier to Go to Jail in Airplane Columbus, O.—Stanley Miller, pri- j vate in the Army Air service, stationed at Wilbur Wright held, near Dayton, ; Is the first prisoner to be conveyed to j Jail In an airplane patrol, according I to officials at Norton Held here. Private Miller, in custody of Master ] Sergeant Peter Blessoit, wlio piloted , the patrol, landed at tr.e Columbus 1 field, having flown from Dayton.

An antiquated story-and-a-half Cre ole cottage sitting right down on the bunquette, as do the Choctaw squaws who sell hay and sassafras and life-everlasting, with a high, close board fence shutting out of view the diminutive garden on the southern side. An ancient willow droops over the roof of round tiles, and partly hides the discolored stucco, which keeps dropping off into the garden as though the old cafe was stripping for the plunge into oblivion—disrobing for its execution. I see, well up in the angle of the broad side gable, shaded by its rude awning of clapboards, as the eyes of an old dame are shaded by her wrinkled hand, the window of Pauline. Oh. for the image of the maiden, were it but for one moment, leaning out of tlie casement to hang her mockingbird and looking down into the garden where, above the barrier of old boards, I see the top of the fig tree. the pale green clump of bananas, the tall palmetto with its judged crown. Pauline’s own two orange trees holding up their hands toward the win dow, heavy with the promises of au tumn ; the broad, crimson mass of the many-stemmed oleander, and the crisp houghs of the pomegranate loaded with freckled apples, and with here and there a lingering scarlet blossom. —Cable. WOMAN'S WORLD IS WIDER Increased Opportunities for Gainful Employment Are Found by the Fair Sex. Women are now enfranchised and enjoy almost eqtiat educational oppor tnnities with men. They may enter practically all professions and trades, and 21.01 per cent of them are gain fully employed. The passage by < Imost every state of married women's projierty and equal guardianship acts has freed wives and mothers from the medievalism of the common law. says Beatrice Forbes Robertson Hale n Current History Magazine. Millions of home-making women are organized for cultural, philanthropic and civic ends, which modern domestic conveniences and la hor-saving device* give them leisure to pursue. City homes are smaller and social life Is consequently spent more In puhlic. Prosperity and machinery have given us on the one hand the largest leisure class of women the world has known, while on the other hand mod em industries (replacing the old home industries by quantity production in factories), plus Hie increased cost of living, drives an ever larger propor tion of women into extra domestic re munerative work. Murder Defined What is murder in the first degree? In the second degree? These definitions differ with the stat utes of the states. In general It may be said that murder in the first degree Is confined to homicide committed by poison, lying in wait and other kill ings committed in pursuance of a de liberate and premeditated design, and to those whic^i accomplish the commis sion of MK of the more atrocious fel onies, such as burglary, arson and rape. Murder in the second degree occurs where there is no such deliberate!) formed design to take life or to per petrate one of the enumerated felonies as is required for the first degree, but where, nevertheless, there was a pur pose to kill (or at least to inflict the particular injury without caring whether it caused death or not) formed Instantaneously In the mind, and where the killing was without justification or excuse, and without any such provo cation as would reduce the crime to the grade of manslaughter. Our Currency. At the present time there are five kinds of paper money or currency Is sued for circulation purposes. The United States Treasury issues three kinds: (1) United States notes, an au thorized Issue of about 34(5 million dollars protected hv gold reserve of approximately 152 million dollars; (2) gold certificates Issued against an equal amount of gold held In the U. S. Treasury for redemption, and (3) sli ver certificate- issued against an equal amount of standard sliver dol lars held In the U. S. Treasury. Two kinds of hank currency are l ^ued— national bank notes, secured *y de posit of United States bonds, and Fed eral Reserve notes, secured by com mercial pajier and gold.—Argonaut. First Engine Used In 1829. The first att< nipt made In the United States to use locomotive engines, oth erwlse than for mere experiment, was made on the railway from Carboitdale to Honesdale, f’a.. 16 miles, built hy the Delaware and Hudson Canal com pany. The Stourbridge Lion, a locomo tive built In England, was placed upon the road In August, 1820. In 1830, con struction was begun on the South Car olina railroad, and the road was de signed arid built to be operated by steam locomotives. This was the first railway built with the purpose from the beginning of using steam locomo tives.
