Wood of the Chair of Experimental Physics of Johns Hopkins University. “It is altogether improbable that any of the corpses will ever return to the surface of the water as is the case with bodies drowned in shallow water. “At the depth of two miles the pres sure of the water is something like 6,000 pounds to the square inch which is far too great to be overcome by buoyancy ordinarly given drowned bodies by the gases that are generated in time.” Puts End To Bad Habit.

No region in this country is able to hold forth greater or more varied op portunities along so many lines as this old-established commonwealth, famil iarly called the “Old North State.” North Carolina has rich soils, great wealth cf minerals, large resources of timber, tremendous undeveloped water power, a mild and healthful climate, many and rapidly growing cities, and a recurd for one of the greatest in dustrial advances witnessed during the past decade. Out of a total area of over 30,000,000 acres, there were in 1910 abou*: about 10,000,000 acres in improved farms, hardly 35 per cent, of the entire area. Population, according to the last Census, waa 2,206,287, giv ing a density of 45 persons to the mile. North Carolina has over 3,000,- 000 spindles in textile mills, using near ly 350,000,000 pounds of cotton an nually; an annual lumber cut of nearly 2,250,000,000 feet; a corn production of over 60,000,000 bushels annuallv; an output of minerals reaching $2,0o0,000 fills every requirement ^of the office and home.

Jones, Traveling Passenger Agent, Raleigh, N. C. Reinforced Concrete of Old Rome. Although concrete has been used for many centuries, it Is generally sup posed that reinforced concrete is a modern invention. This, however, hi.s been disproved, according to Popular Mechanics by the finding of bronze reinforcing rods In the concrete roof of an ancient Roman tomb, and in the discovery of reinforced concrete in the construction of one of the walls of the old palace of the Louvre, Paris. The reinforced concrete in the lat ter dates back only 300 or 400 years, but created much comment because the walls were thought to consist en tirely of ashlar and quarry stone. The dlaeoTery that the stone casing con cealed a core composed in part of re inforced concrete was made while workmen were piercing the wall for elevator installation.

J. Bruce Ismay, president of the In ternational Merchantile Marine, an nounced Saturday that he had given in structions to all the lines of the In ternational Mercantile Marine, which include the White Star, the Vmerican, the Red Star, the Leyland, the At lantic Transport and the Dominion lines, to equip all steamers with suf ficient lifeboats and rafts for every passenger and every member of tho crew without regard to regulations prescribed by the governments of the United States, Great Britain, Belgium of any of these countries to which th*. steamers belong. ) The Titanics roH ot Pas sengers* The printed rolls ot first and second cabins, of the Titanic compared with the list of survivors on the Carpathia, show that of 390 first cabin passen gers 212 were saved, 154 of them women and children; and that of 270 second cabin passengers 116 were saved 102 of them women and children. Of the third class passengers, 800 in num ber, 170 survive, of whom 83 are wom en and children. Of 985 officers and crew, 207, ir.r eluding 22 women, reached the Carpa- thia. A few in each class doubtless escaped enumeration on the iCarpatli- ia. Accepting the estimate of the Cai'- pathia’s officers, that 705 survivors reached the ship, comparison with the total, 2,181 showed that 1,476 are un accounted for. Staining Glass. The art of colored glass has been lost and refound, guarded and stolen eo many times during the history of civilization that it seems almost im possible to say anything new on glass ■talning. Yet a process has been dis covered for making the stained glass OB«d in windows which is a departure from anything known to the old timers. The glass first receives Its design In mineral colors, and the whole is then llrcd in a heat so Intense that the col oring matter and the glass are Indis- ■olubly fused. The most attractive fea ture of this method Is that the surface acquires a peculiar pebbled character In the heat, so that when the glass is In place the lights are beautifully soff and mellow.

The managing director of the Wolin Davit and and Engineering Compa'^y has issued a statement that the Titanic carried 14 life boats and two cutters with an aggregate capacity of 9,702 cubic feet, but was equipped with da- i vits capable of handling double or triple the number cf boats carried. The owners adopted this plan, he says, because it was rumored that changes were to be made in the near future of the official regulations which would compel carrying of more boats. He concluded: “Additional boats for the accomodation of every soul on board might have been installed practically In a single day/' Up Against It.
