Hint usslon wllunu action on the
question ol" limine nun inn over the
Lincoln streets occupied almost all
die lime of the city commissioners
at their council meeting Monday aft
ernoon. The ordinance read for the
third thn under the signature of
Commissioner Ilcnsloy. doing away
with nil house moving of buildings
over 25 feet high, and an amendment
allowing leeway for short distance
moving of bis buildings, presented by
the same commissioner, were laid
over for further consideration and de
bate by the council.
Acting Mayor Dayton and Commis
sioner Schroeder are particularly op
posed to the moving of heavy houses
over the pavement and under the
wires. The city Is now the defendant
in a heavy damage suit following In
juries sustained by linemen working
on raising wires over a moving house
some months ago. The present bonds
of the house movers are by no means
suflicient to cover costs of such ac
tions, commissioners aeree and the
ordinance first proposed to Increase
the bond to $15.00. This was am
ended by Commissioner Hensley to
be $10,000 but both propositions were
left for future action. While even
these amounts are not enough to pay
the city for damage done in some
cases, it is said, it will have the ef
fect of making the bonding company
very particular when and where and
how houses are moved and may in
vent much future trouble.
Steel is given resistance to rusting
to an important degree by copper in
amounts usually reported as only
traces. In an investigation reported
by D. M. Buck to the American society
for testing materials, increasing the
proportion of copper from 0.01 to 0.03
per cent decreased the corrosion oy 30
to 40 per cent; and with 0.15 per cent
of copper protection was given even to
steel having a considerable eexcess of
sulphur.

THE CREATOR OF "ANNE OF
GREEN GABLES"
L. M. Montgoniery became fired
with a great ambition to write when
bhe was about sixteen. Her early ef
forts failed to satisfy her and she be
ci'iue a proofreader and general
"handy-man" on a Halifax newspaper.
She tells an amuselng incident which
happened at this time. "All the JobB
that went a-begging In the office were
handed over to me. On one occasion
the compositors were setting up for
the weekly edition a Ptory called 'A
Royal Itetrothal,' taken from an Eng
lish paper, and when about half
through they lost the copy. Where
upon the news-editor requested me to
so to and write an 'end' for the story.
At first 1 did not think I could. What
was set up of the story was not
enough to give me any insight into
the solution of the plot. Moreover,
my knowledge of royal love affairs
was limited and I had not been accus
tomed to write with flippant levity of
kings and queens. However, I fell to
work and somehow got it done. More
than ten years afterward I came
across a copy of the original story In
an old serapbook and was much
amused to discover that the author's
development of the plot was about as
different from mine as anything could
possibly be."
With the publication of her first
book Miss Montgomery's struggle for
literary recognition was over, once
and for all. Her well-loved creation,
"Anne of Green Gables," won many
thousands of fiction lovers" to her. In
her new novel, RAINBOW VALLEY,
Miss Montgomery continues the tale
of the married life of Anne Shirley at
Four Winds Harbour. The story deals
largely with Anne's six children and
is cramful of romance and humor.
The apparatus recently supplied
United States grain inspectors for
measuring moisture is a simple distil
lation flask, with condensing tube and
graduated receiver. The definite
quantity of grain being placed in the
quantity of grain being placed in the
flask, and covered with mineral oil,
electric heat is applied for 25 or 30
minutes and the percentage of moist
ure distiled over Is indicated by the
graduations.
About 39 per cent of our share of
liie sun heat is reflected from clouds
back into space, without ever reach
ing the earth's land or water surface,
if L. B. Aldrich, of the S.-.thsonian
astrophysical observatory is correct in
his conclusions. Observations from a
military balloon were made over the
San Gabriel valley, Cal., with an in
strument recording the heat radiating
from the whole sky or from the sun
or sky separately,- and were under
taken above a layer of fog or low
cloud. Repeated measurements were
made from 7 to 10 a. m., with expos
ures both to the sun and sky com
bined and to the layer of cloud below.
The results agreed fairly well in bhow
ing that 78 per cent of the radiation
reaching the upper surface of the
cloud sheet was reflected and It
seemed evident that only about 22
per cent of the sun's rays could reach
the body of a planet completely en
cased in a sheath of smooth cloud.
The mean cloudiness of the earth be
ing about 50 per cent, it appears that
about 39 per cent of the sun's heat is
rejected or thrown back without op
portunity to render useful service
The latest extension of the power
of the telescope is achieved by a novel
use of color screens. As rescribci by
F. G. Brown, a British astronomer, a
disk consisting of two semicircular
pieces of glass in contact is mounted
in a short tube, and this is placed
in the telescope between the eeyepiece
and the objective. The glasses, which
are of orange and blue or other con
trasting colors are so adjusted that
their plane surfaces are not quite par
allel. When any object Is viewed
thru the telescope, two Image- are
seen, one rich in orange rays and the
other in blue, and the intensity of
either is increased by shifting it to
ward the center of the field by a slight
change in the telescope's position.
Striking differences in the detail of
planet surfaces are brought out. The
blue Image of Jupiter, for instance, is
stated to be marked by an extreme
prominence of the north equatorial
belt, where the south equatorial belt
is more conspicuous in the orange im
age, and the monoschromatic light re
veals features not otherwise seen
A farmer, noted for his absentmind
edness, went to the market town and
transacted his business. He stalled
on his way home, however, with be
unpleasant conviction that he had for
gotten something, but what it was he
could not recall. As he neared home
the conviction strengthened and three
times he stopped his horse and went
careful? thru ,1118 pocket-book in a
vain endeavor to discover what he had
forgotten. In' due course he reached
home and was met by his daughter,
who looked 'at him In surprise nd
then exclaimed: "Why. father, where

Lazy Lorenzo and Dog-tired Dick
were discussing something they knew
little about work. "I think," said
Lazy Lorenzo, "that if they did away
with work altogether it'd put an end
to these 'ere strikes." "Yirsi," said
Dog-tired Dick. "That'll be the time
when everything's done by electricity.
Only got to press a buton and the
Job's done. " A slow horror dawned In
Lazy Lorenzo's eyes. "That won't
do..." he said emphatically. "Who's
a-goln' to press the button?"
