SOHO MAY BE SWEPT AWAY
Picturesque Part of London Sched.
uled to Yield to the Demand
of Commerce.
Two picturesque siloes of old Lon
don, known to tens of thousands of
Americans, may soon be scooped away
to satisfy the demands of commerce.
Soho and the parish of St. Giles ? or
Seven Dials, as It Is better known
are about to begin -their passage Into
history and be converted into the most
modern business district of the me
tropolis. possibly a second city of
London.
Soho. which probably derived Its
name from the duke of Monmouth's
famous battTe-ery "Soho" at Sedg
I moor, has experienced many vicissi
tudes of fortune. In the olden days
regarded as one of the fashionable
quarters of London. -.It gradually he
came the home of bohemlanlsm and
the haunt of Sam Pepys and GoliF"
smith.
Today. Its dingy and uninviting
j streets are lined with French, Italian
1 and Swiss restaurants, where London ?
1 ers and visitors may learn what the
t much-praised foreign cooking really Is.
The whole district Is now almost
entirely Inhabited by foreigners and
Is the favorite meeting place of the
I anarchists of the "tame" variety. For
long It was looked upon as the equiv
alent of the Montmartre, but never at
any time has It attained the attrac
tiveness or liveliness of the gay Paris
Ian quarter.
"Spirit Messaged by Radio.
A true story, well known In scien
tific circles, records the first use of
radio-telephone during the war In
France. Professor W of Yale
university, then In the reserve corps,
was asked to witness volce-con
trolled flight near ltoyiarankln,
France, Standing In a hangar on the
ground, he placed the receiving in
strument to his ear. The voice of an
unseen person from the clouds spoke
a message. The professor turned pale
as he dropped the receiver.
"My God," he exclaimed, "that's
Prof. Peters! He died nine years
ago !"
The professor was told that the
man speaking was one of the pilots
of the 09th squadron.
Soon the pilot came to earth and
walked into the hangar. He proved
to be Prof. Peters' son. ? Horace.

Got It Straight
Israel Zangwill occasionally likes to
slip nmoiiK the crowd ho that he can
find out what they are thinking about
his work, and he has never forgotten
an occasion on a certain evening when
he did so.
It was on the first night of one of
his earlier plays. Filled with all a
young author's anxiety, he ventured
Into the gallery In the hope of hear
ing some compliments. But there was
"nothing doing." so he asked one man
straight out what lie thought of the
production.
"Well, guv'nor," replied the man,
"the leading actor ain't bad"?
"Ah, yes."
"And the leading lydy, she'll do."
"Yes, yes."
"But, guv'nor, what a play!"
Valuable Snake*.
A nest of snakes, 13 in number, has
been given an asylum on a doctor's es
tate In Woodbury, N. J. The doctor
has found that all kinds of crop-de
stroying Insects are eaten by the rep^
tiles. The snakes are about early In
the morning, hide at midday and are
astir again In the evening. They are
of a harmless sj>eeles, brown In color
and are difficult to distinguish unless
seen on the move. The snakes pre
fer to loiter around tomato and cu
coml*?r plants, where many grub
worms are to be found. Plants over
which the snakes have assumed a
protectorate are standing unscathed
by 'jror^is. The snakes have grown
