SKYSCRAPER IS MACHO LIFE So Nat’l Asß’n of Building Owners and Managers Told Today at Convention. Duluth, Minn,—The modern sk sera; er is a menace to life, Franklin N. W"ntworth of Boston declared in tin address here today before the Na tional Association oT Building owners and managers. Mr. Wentworth is secretary of the National Fire Pro tection Association. "It is said that the up and down traflic on the elevators of New York is almost, as great as the horizontal traffic,” he said. “No disaster more horrifying could he imaginable than that which would occur of New York City should have an earthquake. Just enough of a shock to break water and gas mains and to snap electric leads— the Ibss of "e would be appalling. "A great conflagration, such as Is possible In New York, would bring the same disastrous result. "New York is beginning to realize the menace and steps are being taken to limit the height of buildings. Jt does not make a city any greater to have high buildings." Othe rspeakers on today's program were 11. F Martin, Atlanta, Ga.. on "Building for Profit": Simon Straus, New York, on "Office Building Bonds”; and F. Robertson Jones, New York on "Workmen’s Compensatio.” DUN VICTORS ARECDfENOED Lettera Sent By Sec’y Daniels to Commanders of Vessels of Fleet Which Won Trophies Washington.—Letters of commen dation today were sent by Secretary Daniels to the following commanders of vessels of tiie fleet which won the gunnery and engineering trophies during the past year: Captain J.

COTTON MAKES $27 GROSS PER ACRE Another fact, and a remarkable one, came out In the census figures—that Is, Georgia produces more dollars per acre than any of the great farming states, Illinois and lowa not excepted. Georgia's leading crop, cotton, with the seed Included, made 927 gross per acre In 1901* The other crops bring the average down. Corn, the principal crop tn Illinois, last year wielded 919,67 an acre; in lowa, 916.65, In the Dakotas, wheat, which Is their chief crop, yields about 99 per acre. Cost of Land and Yield. Note the great difference in prices of land, and that Georgia farina yield more per acre than those of any other state named. Our lands produce 25 per cent more than Illinois fsrms, but the latter sell for six times as much as Georgia's. .w ■■ POINTED.

MOOSES RON PROPERLY General Administration of the Bureau of These Stations Ap proved By Committee of In quiry. Washington. General administra tion of the bureau of lighthouses was approved by a committee of inquiry which submitted its report today. The committee consisted of Secretary Redfield and Assistant Secretary Sweet, of the Department of Com merce, and Director Stratton of the bureau of standards. The investiga tors declared that loyalty to the ser vice and a “high degree "of discretion and business ability" marked the con duct of Commissioner Putman and his chief assistants. The report stated that since re-or ganization of the lighthouse service four years ago, “there has been a small dissatisfied and discontented element, and a few case® of insubor dination. Dismissal of some mem bers of the service was recommended. Business dealings of the bureau with private con orations which em ployed former deputy commissioners were declared to be “entirely free from any taint."- The inquiry was begun several months ago at the request of Com missioner. Several changes had been made against the conduct of the bu reau. WANTED TO OBLIGE. At the Lambs’ Club Raymond Hitch cock told of the repeated applications for a Job made to a metropolitan man ager by a somewhat seedy-looking per son who had, as repeatedly, been in formed that there was nothing for him. Each time that the man would begin a recital of his qualifications he would be interrupted with: "See the stage j manager. He Is handling all applica tions.” Finally the dilapidated stranger con trived to gain access to the stage man ager, who at that time was busily en- I gaged In assisting the musical leader ] in sizing up candidates for the chorus. Now, there was a long line in front of ibe stranger; but this circumstance did not prevent him, between song 3, from Interrupting the stage manager with requests for a Job. The director at length became exasperated. Turn ing to the pianist, he directed him to play an accompaniment for the seedy looking applicant. After some hesita tion, the stranger, urged by the man ager, lifted up his voice In song. His effort was bad as bad could be—the stage manager was disgusted. "What does all this comedy mean?” he demanded. “You are certainly not lacking In nerve to ask me for a job! You a singer— As this the applicant himself dis played anger. "See here!” he ex claimed. “I don’t sing! X don’t want to try to sing. I am a stage carpen ter. I was only singing to pleaes you. You insisted upon It.” —Lippincott's.
