YOUNGEST EUROPEAN CITY.
Odessa is ono ot tho youngest ot
European cities. Only 120 years ago.
en Hdjl Boy, a little Turkish ottiemcnt,
i "nesUod on tho clitfH that overlook tho
liarbor and dozed under tho sultan
pcross tho Black son, writes Sydney
Adamson in Harper's Mngnzlno. Tho
jlong arm of Russia reached out and
took it, and planted thcro, upon tho
plateau overlooking tho bay, tho be
ginners of a commercial city that now

Revolution In Franco coon sent rem
pees scattering over tho world, and
noblo names camo to Odessa, and ono
piay read them still on Btrcot cornors
r Daribas, Rtchollou and Langeron.
Later Englishmen camo nnd brought
hips to carry away Russian grain, nnd
then tho Crimean war swept ncross
this friendly relation. But tho English
staid when the war bad passed, and
(then Germany came, nnd afterward
(Americans, with reaponi and plows
and steam traction engines, to help
tho Russians to grow more richly tho
eraln that tho EngllBh nnd tho Gor
man ships carried out to tho world.
JLast of all camo the Jowa, and they
put the business so flno that the Eng
lish starved and gave up; co the busi
ness of oxportlng today is mainly in
tho hands of tho Jews. A few hardy
Germans and English are left.
Tho Mercury do Franco has boon
making some Inquiries as to tho re
epoctlvo popularity of tho various mod
ern languages in tho schools of
Europe, and It finds that French Is
till far ahead of all competitors. It
ays that in England dermnn finds
jess and less favor, and that pupils
who have any option In regard to a
modern languago alwaya choose
JFrench. In France, however, slnco
,1870, Gorman has perhaps secured a
preponderance over English in tho
liycccs, says tho Westminster Ga
izettro. In Germany tho study of
iFrench haa progressed to tho detri
ment of English, but tho government
has Intervened in order to dovelop tho
Jtcachhag of English, which It rcsarda
as ot great Importance In commercial
iinatterB. French' is now taught In
JItaly moro than over beforo, but Ger
man Is also gaining some ground, es
pecially In tho north. In Spain
iFrcnch has moro pupils than any olh--or
foreign language, and English
.conies next.
The ppplon for censorship seems to
1)0 on tho Increase. It may properly
'ho considered as n by-product of tho
igrowing paternalism on tho part of
our government. In tho newspaper
.post office bill wo havo tho first Btngcs
of a censorship of tho press. Thcro la
also a censorship of tho moving pic
ture industry, which will doubtless In
tlmo bo extended to tho wholos theatri
cal field. Already this is truo in Eng
land, says Life. What Is really needed,
however, is a censorship to suppress
itho' truth. Tho truth Is getting very
"bold in thcsQ days, and unless eomo
measures aro taken to curtail hur ac
tivities, lamentablo results will fol
low.' Tho governor of Michigan urgos a
sort of church uniform dress for wom
en, plain and Inexponslvo, which all
can wear. So gulloleBs a theory ought
to bo followed up by a proposal that
horse race: should bo conducted with
a view of affording artistic enjoyment
by tho easy grace of horses, with all
bottlng eliminated.
A great Joko was played upon Presi
dent Hadley at thu recent banquet for
tho Harvard football team by tho Bob
ton alumnt. A student, cleverly dis
guised, and speaking broken English,
wbb introduced to tho "Proxy" as
'IIerr Baron von Koppel," Just over

himself to tho forcigncr'a entertain

eigners who had shown interest in tho

"What timo do they chase tho eats on

"That was Mr. Megrim, wasn't It,

A square-built house plnetered on

houses nro becoming very popular
This typo of construction dates back
hundreds of years; but It has re
iccntly been revived becnuso wo havo
found out how to uho coment to nd
.vuntago in work of this kind. Tho
modern outsldo cement plaster coat
bears but Httlo rolatlon to the old
English rough-coat, which used to peel
off In Irregular patches, spoiling tho
appearance of tho house forever.
Ono thing thnt has had a great deal
to do with putting modern coment
plaster work on a substantial and sat
Isfactory basis, was tho invention of
metnl lath rando of oxpanded sheet
steel or woven wlro fabric. Until
cement mortar wan troweled onto nnd

traction. It Is difficult oven now to
explain why comont plaster on good

'cracks, whon tho Bamo mlxturo spread
,on wooden lath will spider-leg In every
direction. But probably tho whv Is
not so Important us tho fact that wo
havo only lately como to practical un
derstanding of effective methods of
using coment Human knowledge
comes very slowly. Wo often hoar
somo ono say that tho Romans know
as much about coment as wo do; but
that 13 nonsense. They knew how to

know more than thny did about tho

use this product In more kinds of Im

afterwards In practical construction.
It Is no longor necessary to use ex

wo nro afrnld to trust coment. In the
hands of good workmen, cement Is
ono of tho vory best building ma

same, tlmo to turn out a Job that looks
well nnd thnt will last forever.
Ono great advantago In outside

Another great advantago In outsldo

work Is required in nil cases, that tho
ioundntton In made right by stapling
tho metal latch securoly to tho fur

most of us know by experience that it

there aro conditions which many peo
