"Waltln', " said the tired-looking man
with tho white apron and florid necktie, "Is
a heap different from what It was twenty
years ago when I first butted Into It. Us
old-timers don't scarcely recognize It as the
iamo business and I reckon I'm gettln' a
little out o' date for It. I got to quit and
go to speckslatln' for a llvln.' "
"You see It keeps gettln' swcllcr an'

man that only wants one cut o' plo and four

ret spender that always took steak or lob

with every order.
"In the old days we had Just dining halls
and lunch counters. Nowadays them names
Is used only In Rubevllle. In the big towns
the lunch counters have all become coffee
houses, short-order houses, grill rooms,
luncheons and dairy annexes. And tho din
ing halls has become mostly calfaae with
gilt signs on tho glass and a cashier and
bumb palm In the front window. And tho
fodder pitchers has all become waiters or
servitors. They ain't no plain hashers any
more. Wo'ro gettln' too Important for
that. We got our unions now, with regular
officer and badges and headquarters, and
the prlvllego of going out and working up

tho younger fellows Is that have got spike

"And wo've cut out the slang and phony
names, too. When we pipe out an order
now we got to bo nice about It. It's a com
plete change from what ltuecd to be when
milk toast was a 'grave yard stew,' sausage
was a Mink o' cnblo,' beans was 'gambler's
strawberries,' doughnuts was 'sinkers,'
spare ribs was a 'stack o' bones,' scrambled
eggs was a 'shipwreck,' ham and eggs was
a 'grunt and a cluck,' soft boiled oggs was
'thrco In tho ocean' and eggs on toast was
'chlppees on the fence.'
"Note ot that kind of talk goes now.
We've had to reform even to puttln' tho
soft peddle on our vocallzin' to tho cook
and steam table men. We don't even han
dle the coin any more. The fairy up In
front tends to all that and we just pais out
the oardboard. It there Is any rake-off,
little Muddle, with tho glad emlle and the
violet extract gets It. All we get Is the
dishes back unless we're workln' In some

carry a tab and run our own trolley line to

"And speakln' o' gettln' through reminds
me of tho queerest thing about folks that
cat In restaurants. Even now about one
half ot 'em will holler their heads off till
they're waited on, then bolt their victuals
down like a train crew and then lay back
ready to talk a week It anybody will listen.

WASHINOTON, Oct. 6. Of the many In
teresting features which go to make up the
annual report of tho Smithsonian Institu
tion, which has been published this week In
an edition of 20,000 copies, for gonerat dis
tribution through member of congress, the
most striking is a reproduction ot the first
picture over made of a flight of the "aero
drome," or flying machine, Invented by the
secretary of tho Smithsonian, Mr. S. P.
Langloy. The reproduction Is a half-tone,
In the form of a largo folding plate, and Is
copied from a photograph, hitherto unpub
lished, taken by Mr. Alexander Graham
Hell, the Inventor of tho telephone.
Comparatively little has been said pub
licly during the last two or three years
regarding Mr. Langley's epoch-making In
vention, for the reason that his Investiga
tions have been continued for the special
benefit of the Hoard ot Ordnance and Forti
fications of the War department, with a
view to developing the usefulness of thu
machine In warfare. Out It will be re
membered that tho aerodrome Is strictly
mechanical In Its operation, and thus In no
wny resembles, for example, the airship
with which tho young Hrnzlllan neronaut,
Santos-Uumont, has recently been endeav
oring to circumnavigate the Eiffel tower In
I'arls. In Santos-Dumont's airship, that is,
tho lifting power Is furnished by the gas of
a balloon, and what tho Inventor has par
ticularly claimed for It Is that It Is "dirig
ible" capable, that is to soy, of being
steered llko a ship.
Tho aerodrome, on tho other hand liter
ally "alr-runncr" furnishes Its own power,
steam, from Its own fuel. Hence tho re
markable Interest of the photograph now
published In the Smithsonian report, tho
great historical significance of which Is
recognized In an accompanying statement,
to tho effect that although greatly enlarged
from tho original negative, which wan taken
with a small pocket camera, the reproduc
tion is entirely mechanical no retouching,
either of the negatlvo or of tho engraving,
having been permitted and may bo ac
ccpted, accordingly, as absolutoly authentic
In ovcry detail.
Whatever may bo lacking In the pictorial
valuo of the photograph, therefore, Is com
pensated by its convincing quality. Tho
aerodrome Is shown high up In midair, quite
distinct and separate from any connection
with other objects as obviously a thing
ot Independent motion, Indeed, as If It were
tho soaring henhawk from which It essen
tially derives, Uclow Is tho secluded island
of Chopawamslc, near (Juantlco, on the
Virginia shore of tho Potomac, somo thirty
miles below Washington.
Tho flight which Is thus vividly rendcrod
took place May fi, ISOt), and was a prlvato
trial, Mr. Bell being Mr. Langley s only
companion outside of his regular assist
ants. Tho machine one of several which
havo since flown considerable distances
undor Mr. Langley's supervision wa
launched from a specially constructed house
boat, and was supplied with water sufficient
only for a short course, test, In Its uncon
trolled flight, It should get altogether out ot
reach and lose Itself In the neighboring
Virginia forests an accident which would

Strangest of Mausoleums
In civilization as-well as In savagery man
has Indulged weird fancies In his ornamen
tations of the sepulcher. Even In the most
barbarous climes and times much thought
was given to embellishments of the graves
ot beloved dead. Many of the wonders of
the world have been sarcophagi. The
Pyramids aro but repositories for the bancs
of Egyptian royalty; tho Catacombs vast
aleeptng cars for the Romans' and early
Christians' last dreamless slumber.
Throughout tho world, by the sldo of his
arches of triumph, man has erected mauso
leums and tombs.
Less stress Is today placed upon tho Im
portance of the dead body; more upon the
living soul, A few people even havo bo
come sufficiently emancipated to forego the
pitiful mlto of worldly Immortality crystal
lized In a fragment ot marble, and have
had their bodies consumed In the purifying
fire, leaving no damp or frozen mound tor
their successors to hover near, adding to
the great sense of loss tho horror of disin
tegration.
Dut there still are erected countless sar
cophagi, nt enormous cost and infinite
pains, to memorialize a life nnd a name.
Love still stands weeping at tho brink ot
a grave and Invents methods of calling the
world's attention to its own peculiar sor

of the snow-clad or moss-mantled Green
mountains, stands a unique sepulcher
erected by devoted wealth, at the cost of
many thousands ot dollars, called the
Laurel Glen mausoleum. Throughout that
part ot Now England known as the Marble
state, tho namo of Cutttngsvlllo stands
only for this mausoleum; the rudo hamlet
has but one pride, ono distinction. It holds

when the funds available tor Mr. Langley's
experiments were limited. In connection
with the Illustration Mr. Hell's account of
the flight has special Interest, and is ac
cordingly quoted tn tho present Smithsonian
report.
"The aerodrome," he .writes, "at a given
signal started from a platform about twenty
feot above the water and rose at first di
rectly In the face of the wind, moving at
nil times with remarkable steadiness, nnd
subsequently swinging around In largo
curves ot perhaps 100 yards In diameter,
and continually ascending until its steam
as exhausted, when, at a lapse of about a
minute and a half and at a height which t
judged to be between SO and 100 fect In tho
air, tho wheels ceased turning, and the ma
chine, deprived of tho old of Its propellers,
to my surprise, did not fall, but settled
down so softly and gently that It touched
the water without the least shock, and was
In fact Immediately ready for another trial,
"In tho second trial, which followed di
rectly, It repeated In nearly every respect
the actions of the first, except that direc
tion of Its course was different. It ascended
again in the face ot the wind, afterward
moving steadily and continually In largo
curves, accompanied with a rising motion
and a lateral advance. Its motion was, In
fact, so steady that I think a glare of water
on lt surfaco would havo remained tin
spilled. When tho steam gave out again It
repeated tor a second time tho experience
of the first trial when the steam had ceased
and settled gently and caelly down. What
height It reached at this trial I cannot say,
ns I was not so favorably placod as In tho
flrBt, but I had ocenston to notice that this
time Its course took It over a wooded
promontory, and I was relieved of some ap
prehension In seeing that it was already 'so
high as to pass, the tree tops by twenty or
thirty feet. It reached tho water one
minute and thirty-one seconds from tho
time, it started, at a measured distance of
over 000 fect trom the point at which It
rose.
"This, however, was by no means tho
length ot its flight. I estimated from the
diameter of tho curvo described, from the
number of turns of tho propellers, as gtvan
by automatic counter, after duo allowance
for slip, nnd from other measures, that the
actual length of flight on each occasion was
slightly over 3,000 fect. It Is at least safo
to say that each exceeded half an English
mile. It seems to mo that no one who was
present on this Interesting occasion would
havo failed to recognize that the practica
bility of mechanical flight had been demon
strated." A very interesting general description of
the aerodrome Is also Included In the re
port., Tho appcarauco of the models which
Mr. Langley has used for his demonstra
tions might not Inaptly bo compared to
thai of a giant dragon fly. To a long rod
nre attached, like a body, a twin engine
and boiler, four wldo spreading wings, a
tall-llko rudder, and twin propellers placed
nearly amidships, between the two pair of
wings. Tho wholo weighs about thirty
pounds, one-fourth of which Is the englno
and Its appurtenances, which aro thus ot
unexampled lightness. The engine Itself,

An opulent New Yorker had sought soli

A whole year's time and tho labor of
125 men were employed upon this Oreek

in this lovely valley among the mountains
which encompass Vermont. In this great
tomb were used 7S0 tona ot granite, fifty
tons ot marble and 120,000 bricks. Its
dimensions are 18x25 feot and It Is 20 feet
high. Each block of granite weighs from
three to six tons, Tho exterior decora

Within the portal Is closed by a door of
one marble slab weighing 0,500 pounds.

Langley's Aerodrome and its
Experimental Flights.
with cylinders, pistons and all moving
parts, weighs only twenty-six ounces. Light
as It la, however, It vk 111 turn tho propellers
easily at a rate ot S00 revolutions a min
ute, and thence up to 1,200 revolutions, thus
driving the aerodrome at a speed of from
twenty to thirty miles an hour.
Tho maximum speed possible has not been
calculated, nor, Indeed, has the very high
est speed actually attained been measured
but according to "Langley's law," so called,
the power required to drive the machine
would in theory diminish Indefinitely as
the speed Is Increased and tn practice
would diminish In a very considerable de
gree. It must be remembered, however,
that security has been chiefly sought
hitherto and'the conditions which give this
Increase of speed with decrease of power
must bo limited by others which demand
that the flight should be made lu safety and
without that danger of accident which might
come by too rigorously applying exact
theoretical conclusions, especially in view
of the limited appropriation available for
this work.
It Is necessary to launch the machine
against the wind. Once under way It flies
steadily forward and upward until the ma
chinery ceases to revolve and then It floats
slowly downward, alighting on the water as
gently as a gull. Tho speed Is regulated
by the Inclination of the wings, or, more
accurately, the motionless supporting sur
faces. The machine Is built almost entirely
ot steel and Is far heavier In relation to
air than a ship of solid lead would ho In
relation to water. Kor It must be remem
bered that the support which It receives
from the air is due to nnother principle
than that Involved in tho buoyancy ot a
ship that Is, to the rapidity with which it
runs over the air like a skater over thin
Ice, whenco tho special significance of its

bo ono may not predict. Tho present
Smithsonian report, however, contains an
article now published for tho first time In
this country prepared, as an address, by
M, Janssen, the president of tho Interna
tlonat Aeronautic congress, In which the
importance of the air as a medium of navl
gatlon is very strikingly brought out and
from which n reader may draw his own
conclusions of what will happen to the
world when the airship Is an accomplished
tact. "Tho sea sovors the continents," Is
one of M. Jansaon'a statements; "the air
unites everything- and dominates 'every
thing." On which Mr. Langley comments,
as editor of tho report, as follows: "That
tho sea separates, whllo the air unites, Is a
proposition the sense ot which may easily
escapo tho reader. The eea renders it dlffl
cult to pass, for example, between an Island
and tho mainland and a number ot vessols
sailing round and round tho Island could
cut off any attempt to mako the passage.
Through the air, on tho other hand, thero
will always be a path from any ono point
on the earth'e surface to any other and no
matter how vigilant a patrol wero instl
tuted there would bo plenty ot room to pss
with Impunity."
Anyone who remembers the added com
plications ot solid over piano geometry will
not be slow to appreciate.

in Vermont
Tomb
bronze traceries and ornaments fill tho
sepulcher.
A nightly Illumination Is produced by six
bronzo candelabra, bearing pyramids of wax
candles, which shed a weird, ghastly light
and give a solemn, cathedral atmosphere to
thta palace ot death.
Upon a rolling terrace, conspicuous from
all dlrocttons, stands this mausoleum, with
Its owner ever entering Its portal, yet never
going beyond the threshold. Itaro exotics
adorn tho lawn in summer and a conserva
tory 1 kopt 'up solely for tho decoration of
tho tomb In winter.
The cost of this sarcophagus Is supposed
to be enormous, but no records can be dis
covered. The founder left $50,000 for the
solo purpose of having the grounds and the
tomb cared for perpetually. Six trustees
guard this legacy, nnd one of their number
enjoys tho castle onco occupied by the Bow
man family. It faces tho mortuary, and In
It are the elegant furnishings Just as they
were used by the erratlo owner. Oriental
colors, woodwork in pale blues, reds and
blacks, statues and relics brought from
sunny Italy to tho region of deep snows,
speak of a luxury entirely foreign to
austere and provincial Vermont,
The tomb was completed beforo the death
of the founder. What melancholy satisfac
tion he experienced In viewing IiIb own mar
ble Image forever ascending the steps that
led to tho cold clay and colder marble pre
sentments of his wlfo nnd children can only
be surmised. He has made tho village
nestled In tho mountains under the shadow
of Kllllngton a point for curiosity seekers
and tho llfo and death story of his own ob
scure family well nigh Imperishable. Per
haps to have done this seemed to hlra
worthy of having lived.
