New Head of War College.
Lieutenant General 'Kuno von *Steu-
hen is the new "schoolmaster" of the
German War College, to which the
best of the young German army of-
»flcers are sent soon after receiving
their commission. Americans will re-
call with interest that othcr von Steu-
ben of the same family,‘ he of the
testy temper and indomitable perse~
verance, who organized and drilled
George Washington's untrained re-
cruits into first-class fighting material.
The task to which General von
Steuben has been assigned was too
onerous for his predecessor, General
von Guendell, who retired after less
than six months' service. A detail
to the War Academy is an indispensa-
ble preliminary to sérvico with the
general'staff, from which the officers
for higher commands are selected,
and General von Steuben possibly has
in his hands the military training of
a future commander of the German
Army in a later war. -
Born Without Brain.
A German medical journal reports
the curious case of a child born with-
out a brain, which in spite of this
handicap. lived to the age of almost
four years. At the autopsy it was
found that both the cerebrum and
cerebellum, the so-called "big" and
“little" brain, were completely luck-
lug, only the medulla oblongnta being
present. This little knot of brain tis-
sue at the base of the main brain,
which in fishes forms the sole brain,
was able hero to control the functions
of the body necessary to a bare exist-
once, but nothing more. The child

SAN FRANCISCO. Oct. 2.-——-Tbrough-
out the United States ‘ architects, engi—
neers endldraughtsmen are planning
or completing the details of the huge
State pavilions at the Panama~Pacific
lntdrnationsl Exposition. where a
wonderful exhibition of the products
of the American States is assured. The
ionuuissionera of thirty-five States
have already selected sites for State
pavilions and the appropriations made
are evidence of. representation upon a
vast scale.
five States making the largest appro-
priations have voted funds totaling
$1,800,000 for their participation. The
total appropriations from eighteen
States aggregate $4,115,000.
Every 'State in the Union will be
represented at America's big show,

$290000 Doing linked by new Plan .
In Oklahoma for Great State Bulld- .
The Legislatures of the ‘
commercial organizations, or else by
State appropriations.
in a few States, where the Legisla--
lures have not yet made appropria-i
tions, the commercial bodies and:
manufacturers are putting on steam
and raising funds for display of thef
State's products.
One of the most interesting cam-'
paigns is that in Oklahoma, where
bricks are being sold at $5.00 each.
The bricks are selling like hot cakes.
The commissioners appointed by on-
ernor 1486 Grace, of Oklahoma, say
that they are quite Certain of raising
$250,000. The money will be devoted
to an Oklahoma building at the Expo-
sition. The idea was born of a unique
situation. For years the bustling 0k-
lahomans had been attempting to_se-
cure money from the Legislature for a
building to be devoted to exhibits of
the history of Oklahoma. When the
Legislature failed to make an appro~
priation for the Exposition, a local
brick company jumped into the fray
and offered to donate fifty thousand
bricks to erect the long desired histor-
ical building. provided the bricks were
sold at $0.00 each, and oi the money
raised was expended in building an
Oklahoma pavilion at the Expositon.
The plan“ took like wildfire; the first
man to buy a brick paid $00 for it.
Each brick has the name of the pur-
chaser stamped on it. The movement
started with‘n meeting of the business
men in the rooms of the Advertising
(ilub at Oklahoma City. It received
the endorsement of Governor Lee
(truce, of Oklahoma. Plans for Ohio-
homa's display at the Exposition de-
veloped rapidly and on September
liltiruamid brilliant military ceremon-
ies, a site for the Oklahoma ‘State ps-
vilion at the Exposition was selected.
