Man, Thought Dead,

SPRINGFIELD, 111, .Tan. 2.—Twenty
three years age- John Baer tretked from
the little village of Warrenville, near

Eleven years later, on failure to hear
from Baer, relatives announced him dead
and collected Insurance on his life. To
day Baer is hack in Warrenville, his
pockets bulging with gold dust and a
hankering for all the fine things In life.
He “struck it rich,” while in the frigid
north, and amassed a fortune during
his absence. "Too busy to write,’’ was
his only coiflmeut.

University to Pay Big
Sum to Keep Chatter
From Passing Out.
LONDON, Jan. 2.—One hundred differ
ent languages are epokerr in Assam. In
Burmah, another hundred.
Such startling facts as these have in
spired the senate of the University of
London to decide upon the establishment
of a vast, “language factory.”
The institution will cost $2,000,000. A
staff of seventy experts will be employed
to study the 1,000 languages in use within
the boundaries of the British empire.
Close secrecy will be observed in the
language factory, since the clue to many
an obscure tongue would be of vast value
to foreign traders. Germany, aided by
a language factory, was beating England
in her own territory before the war.
The factory will import savages from
remote countries and make Intensive
study of their speech. For example,
there are African tribesmen who con
verse In sounds no European has yet been
able to imitate. They speak in clucks
and squeaks, utterly unlike the words
uttered by Europeans.
The equipment of the language factory
will include a “kymograph.” When an
unintelligible language Is spoken into this
machine, it is reproduced by needle
waves on a blueprint which enabled ex
perts to translate the language Into
phonetic English.
The X-ray will also he employed. A
Sbilluk of the upper Nile, for example,
is Induced to fill his mouth with pow
dered chalk and to recite a piece whiie
an X-ray movie is taken of his bead.
Tbia reveals the queer tongue twists of
the Shilluk vocabulary.
Forty representatives of the British
government are now on expeditions Into
far countries, getting material for the
language factory.
Aside from the commercial purposes of
the “Institute of phonetics,” as the fae
a VJ/J/j/
Jmm
tory Is called, It will record for history
many dialects rapidly becoming extinct.
Even dead languages, it is hoped, will be
resurrected.
, No one knows exactly how people
talked in the time of Shakespeare. We
know that their speech was far different
from our own, and no doubt a few cen
turies hence the common talk of English
men aDd Americans would sound like
Greek to the citizen of London and New
York.
But there will be In the museum of the
institute of phonetics careful records of
all kinds of English, from the grave pro
nouncement of professors to the outlund
ish clatter of Whitechapel.

LIBRARY GETS NEW MAP.

sailles and Austria, but a map of Europe

Canada to Modify

Imposed on gold mines, a question which
was prominent at the annual convention
of the Canadian Mining institute, held in
Vancouver recently. Under the taxation
act of 1918 r gold mine Is deemed to be a
mine whose gold recoveries amount to
85 per cent or more of the total value of
the metal content of the ore. such mines
being exempted from the 2 per cent tax
on output in recognition of the unfa
vorable position of gold on the market.
Representations Were made to the min
ister that the position jf the yellow metal
was now much more unfavorable rel
atively than when the exemption was
first granted, and that the advance in
sliver made it difficult for any gold
property that had even a very small
proportion of silver to come within the
85 per cent definition. He was asjeed to

CHICAGO, Jan. 2.—The National City
bank in a financial letter issued today
says:
i “The new year opens under exception
ally interesting conditions with many
important problems unsolved. These re
late to the future of the railroads, the
creation of large credits for the protec

movement of foreign exchange rates, the
financing required by indr 'Hal and
railroad corporations as well as by for
eign borrowers, and the need of secur
ing better co-operation between capital
and labor.
“There has never boen greater confu
siou existing at thle season touching
; a variety of these questions. On toe
other hand, there exists a genuine op
timism about the longer future and the
ability of American producers and man
ufacturers to extend their trade abroad.
The country is making progress cau
tiouslj-. Holiday business last month
broke ail records with total sales of
high-priced merchandise at unprecedented
flguree.
"It ie also true that the turnover rep
resented by the Christmas business was
greater than ever before since merchan
dise prices were the bighe3t ever known,
and the so-called ‘luxury buying’—that is
the demand for the best grades of mer
chandise—was unparalleled. Christmas
buyers this season demanded the best

content whh nothing less.
