'Sox,' etc* without explanation, what Is a casual reader to do about it? Couldn't the sporting editors keep a glossary •* the head of their page?" Thus does a puzzled reader of the sporting news express his disapproval of the popular fashion of giving the news of the sporting world. Whether or not the type Is numer- ous will develop from the result of the referendum Instituted by the Chicago Record-Herald. On the sporting page of that dally appears a coupon asking for a vote on preference between Eng- lish and slang In stories to be found on that page. Since the latter has come to be acknowledged as the ap- proved medium for conveying lnfor- jnatlon on baseball and other sports. It appears that the popular demand Is for slang in preference to English for the purpose. It is something gained, however, that there Is a recognized difference between the two. & * Â¥H MR. TILLMAN BHVDDERB. The mental state of Senator Tux- man is, Indeed, pitiable, if his gran- diloquent utterances concerning the evils to follow in the wake of wom- an's suffrage are evidence of his agony ot spirit. "It^is a beautiful dream," says Mr. Tillman, "that female suffrage will purify politics. The vital and impor- tant thing for us to consider is the effect on women themselves. We had better* endure the evils of corruption in politics and debauchery in oar gov- ernment rather than bring about a condition which will mar the beauty and dim the luster of the glorious womanhood to which we have been ac- customed all our lives. :_ "I am so thoroughly a convert to the belief that you cannot touch pitch without being defiled that I shudder to think of the consequences to the womanhood of America 4f suffrage should become universal, t&Ue& lu, both sexes and all races. 'TTet pertinent Is to be tried, I fear." Scant heed will be paid the south- ern senator as he sits shuddering ^n contemplation of the consequences of the feminist movement of the day.; ;'; m x m .___'.i&$& FOR BWEBT CHARITY. ^ Wilmette parents are apparently bent upon Impressing upon their„cb!l- ______hatit ia "more bleasM to l»re than to receive." In the late winter a group of children by their owxt ef- forts raised a creditable sum to be added to the Chicago, Tribune'e free iGA^und~for the benefit of itheoity^ Last week a similar group, perhaps the same children, dramatised and staged an open-air performance of "The Last of the Mohicans," an unjler* taking requiring weeks of study and rehearsal.

Pouring of conorete over the arched forms in the north section of the building began Mon- day morning. Already many of the piers or supports to these arches have been poured and are almost set 112 Concrete Were WhnW.y The walls to the grade are prac- tically completed and all the 112 large concrete pier baBee hsjre been formed. The work In shaping the pier bases, which elope gradually to the concrete floor, was done by a new machine known as "the "spider spreader." -it is said that, this is the first large piece of concrete work in which the ma- chine has been used. Because It greatly facilitated the work tor which slower and more tedious methods were employed before in forming the large pier bases, it is stated that the new machine will be employed uni- versally by all contractors. A total of 10S workmen- are now em- ployed on the new filtration plant Of this number, seventy are laborers, who hftndle the concrete. Thirty car- penters are employed ana are kept busy btrildlnt; >the forms of many shapes.

The »f^«f»«nff of the crushed stone in mixing the concrete shows that ad- vancement is ateadily being made In reducing the cost of labor. Instead of employing scores of laborers to wheel the stone to the concrete mixing ma- chine, a large Ripple is built over the machine and the heavy material con- veyed to it by means of a wide belt The stone tsAdropped, almost auto- matically, into the hopper ot the mix- tng niachlne, where it is thoroughly mixed in a tew minutes and then cart- ed to the various sections and dumped Into thw forms. 3'On^ a |ei|»; visitors have watched the hee-htve of concrete workers thus far. TIUs^ i* explained by the fact ^t the work Is intricate and, unless a person u oonverBant with concrete hulldlns conatructlon, the operations are hard to'nnderstand. W. S.
