How TO TAX THE FLoATERs.-The Moffett
register yields large revenue, which goes
far towards maintaining the expenses OF the
State, county, or municipality which adopts
it, and this tax is paid, for the most part by
a class OF citizens who contribute very little
to the support CT the city or State under the
present system oi collecting revenues. 1t
is this feature which we think espe-
cially commends it to the people OF Colo
RADIO. We have here large floating
population, including not only visitors from
abroad, but many OF our own people, who
skip from place to place so pertinaciously
that the assessor seldom or never catches
up with them, or if be does they escape the
collector. 1t is safe to say that the largest
half OF all the money paid for "drinks" in
Colorado is paid by men who pay no taxes
at present In the State, and by this plan
they would contribute very largely to the
support Of our public institutions OF what
ever nature DenUer. NeuS.

AN INTERESTING STRELT-CAR EXPERT
xEYT. .-Throush hout the winter the Second
Avenue Railway Company has been expert
menting with q car driven by compressed
air confined in eight tubular rsteam-recelyers:
nlaced beneath the car: Tie experiments,
which have been made on the upper part OF
the track, where the grades are very steep,
are said to have been completely satlsfac-
tory. The car can be started and stopped by
one lever, and the entire mechanical ar
rangement is very simple. The directors
also assert that they can store sufficient mir
in the receivers at one time to enable them
to make 4 complete circuit OF Manhattan
Island ii necessary. At present several
hours are occupied in charging the re.
eeivers, but machinery has been ordered
which will, it is expected. perform the work
in one minute. If the experiment coE-
tinues to be successful we may soon see
street-cars running without horses, or steam
either. The operation OF the compressed
air is noiseless.-Ne,o Hort Post.

The Escaping Sewer.Gas:

1iesSrs. Editors Dispatch: I noticed in
YOUR local column Of yesterdays paper the
question propounded IL something cc,,' ecusu
not be done to prevent tie escape Of sewer
gas into houses, followed by the suggestion
that the steam tire-eneines be brought into
requisition and the sewers cleaned by
forcing water into them.
This can only be done at considerable
cost and constant repetition, owing to the
multiplicity Of house-connections with the
main sewer in the streets.
The most feasible way that suggests itself
is to connect the tin down-conductors from
the roof with the drain-pipes before they
enter the house. This secures a four-inch
vent-pipe always open to convey the gas 10
the roof Of the buildings. where it escapes,
and in rainy weather aids most materially IN
cleansing the sewer by q flow OF water.
This know is done in many cases, but my
experience teaches that in most cases no
such connections are made, and the water Is
allowed to flow off on the surface and the
gas to find its way into the houses.
The point at which the down-conductors
empty the water from the roof is generally
near the line Of the drain-pipe, and conse-
uuently the connection can be easily made
In q long line Of sewer pipe there is a
constant backing UP OF the foul gas, seek
ing some opening for escape, which, in
most cases, is only found at the end OF the
pipe in our houses, and where (Which is
frequently the CASEY the water in tho so
called traps In the closets has been syphoned
out by trash or refuse being thrown into
them, the opening is entirely free to the es-
cape OF this poisonous gas into the houses,
conveying disease, aud often death, with it,
L have frequently in my practice'seent the
traps in the closets tapped, and pipe in-
serted and then carried into fiue in the
brick walls, but the pipe is generally too
small, and when the syphoning mentioned
above has taken place is wholly Intellectual.
Too much attention cannot be given to
bygienic measures, particularly in city,
and the question OF the escape Of seWer-gas
Is the most difficult we have TO deal with.
The suggestion made above is practica.
bic, and involves the property-oWner in but
LITTLE cost, which Is a great consideration in
these times. &;
j shall be glad to hear again from your
valuable paper upon this subject, as ] know
|it is one in which ALI your readers are In
N. j.. DIaxocE;. & &.
