NEW TYORK, June 4.—Faults In composition have been found in the | group of photographs representing ' Miss Alice Roosevelt and other distin- | | World’s Fair in St. Louis. It seems to bave been the intention of the officials that the pictures should be dignified and conventional. Yet the presence of | defeat that object. Those who study the amenities of | life are wondering what the fair man- agers were thinking of when they per- mitted this child of the tropics to re- attire consisted of one very slight gar- ment, evidently cut in accordance with the islands. Friends of Miss Roosevelt think he should have been eliminated in the dark room or banished in the re- | touching of the negative and they are highly indignant that the should have been given circulation.

The English Institution of Electrical Engineers devoted a recent meeting | to a discussion of a general electrifica- tion of the rallroads of England. A paper was read by F. F. Bennett esti- mating the cost of equpping the entire railroad system with electriclty by means of power houses located every fifty-miles and serving alike all rail roads within the radius, regardless of their corporate identity. The neces- sary community of interest was to be obtained through a central board of | railroad managers, organized on lines similar to the railroad clearing-house, which has worked so successfully and | harmoniously for a number of years. Mr. Bennett made the rather ambi- tious estimate of £150,000,000 as the ! | cost of electrification and figured that | another #£150,000,000 would be re-| ? quired for increased facilities to pro- | vide for the greatly enlarged traffic | which was to result. He calculated the cost of working, after making the changes, at §1.6 per cent of gross re- ceipts instead of €4 per cent, as in the 1901 rallroad returns on which his es- timates were based. It is to be feared that there is a chance of error in cal- culations involving £300,000,000 and | that conservative British managers may be a little cautious in following out Mr. Bennett's plan.—Railway Ga- zette. e All the people of the United States | could be evenly distributed over Man- | hattan Island without making it as densely populated as its southeastern | quarter now is.

WASHINGTON, June 4—Much com- ment has been caused here by the photograph taken of Miss Roosevelt at the exposition standing very near one 'of the exhibition savages in his na- tive dress, or rather undress. To the general public this may seem strange, but to her friends the matter is prob- ’abl\ easily explained by Miss Roose- | velt. Ever since her father came to | the White House Miss Roosevelt has been the victim of the camera fiend, | both professional and amateur. At first she shunned them, but later, finding it was of little avall, she very gracious- | Iy allowed many to take her pictura when requested. It is belleved the photograph taken at St. Louis was probably done was unconscious of {t. e e Our Generals. In a talk before the Oneida His- torian Soclety at Utica, State Hids torian Hugh Hastings recalled that at | the outbreak of the war for the Union Ulysses Grant was a tanner; McClel- lan a railroad president, Sherman a banker in New Orleans, Rosecrans, Hooker, Slocum, Halleck and Burn- | sides were also out of the service; | Thomas was a major in the Second | Cavalry; Meade a captain of engl- | neers; Sheridan moted first lieutenant in Grant's old regiment, the Fourth Infantry; Han- sock was a captain Iin the quarter- | master’s department; Schofleld was a ;fim lieutenant of artillery; Granger was a first lieutenant. Most of the of- | \flr‘?rs who afterward became distin- | guished in the Confederate service had | ontinued in thé army from the time | they were graduated from West Point to the breaking out of the war.
