Berlin.—On© of the most Important
« ngln< erlng undertakings now engag
ing attention In Germany Is a plan
to make the Rhine navigable from
1 -lisle, Switzerland to Lake Constance.
Three South-German states and
Switzerland are interesting thorn*
stives in the matter. While It has
j 1 ot yet h*v*n definitely decided to car
ry out the scheme, three compania
now building dams for power pur
pose?* tvn th© stream have been order*
! ed to put in locks of nt least 296 feet
length to accommodate the large
j barges that are expected to ply on
| the stream. The most difficult tech
nical problem tn tho way of carrying
out the schema is to overcome the
rise of about SO feet at tho Falls of
the Rhine at Hehaffhausen. Here It
is proposed either to build two locks
of about 40 feet rise, each, or to put
in a ship elevator, similar to tho one
already In use at Hinrlchenburg, on
the Dortmund* Km* canal, wrhers
larges are run Into huge tanks, and
these then lifted by hydraulic pressure
to the level of the higher stretch of
the canal. Another difficult point Is
at Laitfenburg, some fifteen or twenty
miles «a.st of Basic, w here the river
rushes through a gorge and has a
..Jl of about 45 foot, and the w ater
■’ere Is three times tho volume at
Sehaff hausen. A dam Is already
building hero ami will bo completed i
a few years, developing about 60,000
horsepower.

MISS CLARA JOEL IN “TtTE GIRL IN THE TAXI",
When A. H. Woods produced a dra
ma some years ago t he 1 ' leading female
role called for a beautiful lady to play
the part of a cloak model In order to
get the desired performer Mr. Woods
advertised quite extensively In all
dramatic papers offering a largo dia
mond ring to lucky lady.
Miss Clara Joel who plays the lead
ing part in The Girl In the Taxi which
comes to the Grand matinee and night.
October 28th, was selected and named
as the most beautiful lady on the
American stage.
Miss Joel, of course, was delighted
with her good fortune but never
dreamed of the annoyance that was
to follow: the New York press took
up the proposals of marriage from all
parts of America in every mail. In
speaking of her proposals she says
“I wish that 1 could turn over to girls
looking for husbands the majority or
offers of marriage which I have re
ceived during the present season. By
actual count. I have so far been hon
ored with a hundred and sixteen. I
have not escaped in a single city of
my Itinerary. Bankers, brokers, po
lltictans, college men, merchants, cow
boys and even an Indian are In the
collection, but so far I have dodged
the noose. The most unique propo
sal came from a man In Kansas City,
he sent ml the impression of his palm
at the same time importuning me to
have It read by a palmist arid If there
was aught in his life or character
that would blush at the spotlight of
Investigation t reject this proffered
hand. l.tfe is too short and the dis
tance to the palmist too long but it
makes an interesting page in my
scrapbook.” •
