WORK FOR 5000 MEN.
THE GOVERNMENT ASKED TO APPROPRIATE
1920, 100000.

Among the bills introduced in the House
of Representatives last Monday, was one
by Mr.. Shelley, of Alabama, known as "the
Schleicher bill" entitled, a bill granting
aid by the National Government to certain
companies incorporated by State authority,
for works of internal improvement. The
companies are authorized to Issue bonds
sufficient to construct, complete and equip
their respective works, to run fifty years.
and to bear interest at the rate of per
cent per annum-the Government TO guar
antee the interest. which is to be paid
semi-annually at the treasury of the United
States. The Government retains a mort
gage on all the property now held or to be
acquired hereafter by said companies, to
be held in trust for the ultimate payment
of both interest and principal of said
bonds. The companies are forever prohi
bited from crediting any other mortgage or
lien upon their property, and from water
ing or otherwise increasing their stocks,
and any use Of the money obtained on euch
bonds, by any fficer or the company, or by
any other person for any other purpose
whatever, is declared felony, punishable
by Imprisonment in the penitentiary for
term not less than ten nor moro than forty
years, in the discretion of jury. The
companies included in the bill are the
James Rivsr and Kanawha Canal, the At
lantic and Great Western Canal, connect
ing the Tennessee River at Guntersville
with the Atlahtlc coaeL az oaVshhau, Iue
Florida Coast Canal, the Fort st. Philip
Canal, the Hempin and Chicago Canal,
the Niagara Falls Ship Canal, the Oswe-
20 Canal, the Lexington and Big Sandy Rail
road, connecting the Chesapeake and Ohio
Railroad with the Louisville and New Or
leans lines on the railroad to the Pacific
coast.
The whole amount of money required for
these works is 1920, 600 900, npon which
the Government guarantees interest. The
friends of the bill claim that it's passage
will give immediate employment to 500,
600 men and will require the use of SO, 600
mules and horses, and will at once re-
lieve the financial pressure now prevailing
in the land.

AS the bathing season is now near at
hand, the hints contained in the following
will be found very timely:
DR.. Samuel Sexton, Surgeon-in- Chief to
the New York Ear Dispepsary, in a recent
communication to the Medical Record, es-
Inmates that thousand people of that city
are sent to their ply sicians to be treated
for ear diseases every year whose trouble
has arisen from getting water in their ears
while bathing, or from catching cold at
such times by exposure or neglect. 1t
appears from the doctors researches that
salt water is peculiarly irritating to the
delicate structures of the inner ear. Very
cold water of the freshest kind may, how
ever, be equally harmful. Surf bathers are
especially exposed to injuries, since q
head and drive the water into the ear; the
same result may ensue if the bather gets a
sudden mouthful from an unexpected wave,
the water then being forced through from
the mouth to the inner ear. Man, the doc
tor thinks, is not naturally amphibious.
Animals fitted for aquatic life are provided
with various arrangements for keeping tre
water out seals, for instance, have q NOV
able membrane in the ear which closes and
shuts out huid the muscles of the water
shrew are competent to shut the ear pas
sages. People who are blessed with very
small openings to their ears run the least
risk in bathing. A man should never dive,
say the doctor, If he wishes to preserve his
hearing. The recommendation of this
authority is that all bathers place plugs of
cotton in their ears.

AN EXTRAORDINARY SENTENCE By a
JUDGE

The following extract is taken from q
sentence pronounced by Judge Reading, at
| Chicago, upon the liquor dealers who had
violated the law by ceiling liquor to minors.
1t will pay q careful perusal: :,
"By the law you may cell it to men and
women, II they will buy. You have given
your bond and paid your license to sell to
them, and no one has a right to modest you
| in your legal business. No matter what
the consequences may be, no matter what
poverty and destitution are produced by
your selling according to law, you baVe
paid your money for this privilege, and you
are licensed TO pursue yoar calling. No
matter what families are distracted and
rendered miserable no matter what wives
are treated with violence ; what children
starve or mourn over tho degradation OF
parent-your business is legalized and no
one may interfere with you for it. No
matter what mother may agonize over the
loss of a son, or sister blush at the shame
of brother, you have a right to disregard
them all, and pursue your legal calling
you are licensed. You may ft up your
lawful place of business in the most enticipg
and captivating form you may furnish 1t
with the most costly and elegant equip
ments for your own lawful trade you may
fill it with the allurements of amusement
you may nse all arts to allure visitors: you
may skillfully arrange and expose to view
your choicest wines and captivating bever-
ages you may induce thirst by all con-
trivances to produce a raging appetite for
drink, and then you may supply that appe-
tte to the full, because it is lawful; YOU
have paid for it-you have q license. You
may allow boys and children to frequent
your saloon; they may witness the appa-
rent satisfaction with which their seniors
Quaff the sparkling glass you may be
schooling and training them for the period
of twenty-one, when they, too, can par
ticipate-for all this is lawful. You may
hold the cup to their lips; but you must
not let them drink-that is unlawful.
For, while you have all these privileges
for the money you pay, this poor privi
lege of selling to childTsn is denied you.
Here parents have the right to say, Leave
my son to me until the law gives you right
to destroy him. Do not anticipate that
terrible moment when can assertion him no
further rights of protection. That will be
soon enough for me, for his sister, for his
other, for his friends, for the community,
to see him take the road to death. Give
him to us in his childhood at least. Let
us have a few hours of his youth, In which
we can enjoy his innocence, to repay US in
some small degree for the care and love we
have lavished upon him.
"This is something which you, who now
stand prisoners at the bar, have not paid
for this is not embraced in your license.
For this offence the court sentences you to
ten days imprisonment in the county Jail,
and that you pay fiue of seventy five dol
lars aud ccsts, and that you stand commit
ted until the fine and costs of this prosecu
ton are paid"

A Justice of the Peace in New York has
given a warning to the citizens who, having
recovered stolen property, fail to appear
was robbed of quantity of lead pipe, and
the police succeeded in capturing the thief
and recovering the stolen property. There
upon the man who was robbed declined to
prosecute, but the Justice decided that, as
there was no proof of the ownership of the
property outside of the fact that it was in
the possession of the thief, the latter must
be discharged and must be allowed to take
away the lead pipe. 1t had been in his
possession and he was legally entitled to
it until proof of other ownership should be
submitted. If this rule should be more
strictly followed out by Aldermen aud
Magistrates there would be fewer cases of
stealing settled outside of the courts, and
fewer TO settle anywhere.
