Watering the Streets.
 To the Editor of the JOURNAL AND COURIER:
 On Friday evening of this week those in terested are invited to meet the Committee on Streets ''to devise plan for watering streets" In view of this ask to be allowed to offer the following considerations
 Dusty streets are a source of annoyance and injury, not only to the general public, but more particularly to the dwellers upon such streets. It would seem fair, then, that the property owners should bear directly some portion of the cost of such watering as may be done by the city.
 In order to avoid injustice under such a system it might be well to tax improved property at greater rate than unimproved Perhaps at double the rate. For instance, if the rate per annum upon unimproved prop erty should be one cent per foot, let i'm proved property pay two cents per foot.
 The rate of taxation for such watering should be moderate for if it were too high it would not work There would be no peti- t1oning for such privileges, and if too low there would be petitioning by streets not needing watering.
 Residents on 8 street, desiring to have it watered, should be required to petition in the same way and manner as is now used in petitioning for sewers, etc, and should be assessed impartially; provided, however, that streets which have paid for paving, par ticularly Telford paving, should have dis crimination made in their favor. because such streets have paid for the dust from which they suffer, and, also, because the city has an economic interest in their preserva- tion, of which moderate watering is an i'm portant means.
 A further suggestion is that watering the streets should be commenced as early and continued as late in the season as the annoy ance from dust exists D. A, T.

Three Aer0nauts Rescued From Q Dam
 gerous Situation by an Italian Skip
 per.
 A Paris dispatch to the London Telegraph of March 11th says: "M. Allioth the ed itor of the Ph1re du Litt0rGl, gives an inter esting account of his adventures in the bal loon Gabriel on Sunday last, in company with Capt. Jovis and Lieut.. Viyier. The balloon, which started from Nice in the morning. rapidly rose to height of 6,000 feet. The view was at first magnificent. The Alps and great part of Switzerland were distinctly visible, and the air was warm But the clouds and thick mist soon by degrees, and in spite of every effort to prevent it, the balloon descended the party found to their horror that they were about nine miles out at sea, when they had all along believed themselves to be going steadily in a northeasterly direction. Once or twice the Gabriel was induced to rise again for a short time, but it soon returned to the water; and although anchor, ballast, bags, boots and every article of any weight were thrown from the car, it remained obstinately welded to it's new element At times the balloon scudded along at @ great rate, though the lower portion of the car WAS submerged, the water. which had at first only been ankle deep, finally rising sufficiently high to stop M Allioth's watch in his waistcoat pocket at 5:35 in the afternoon. Night found the un- fortunate travellers in even worse plight and, to add to their difficulties, the cars be- gan to rock with the waves, and, although numbed with the bitter cold. they were com pelled to hold on tightly for bare life. At intervals they shouted together, but 1t was labor lost and no answer was returned. At last to their great delight, they espied the sail of an Italian craft bearing down upon them. A boat was speedily launched and they were soon on board in dry clothes, and making a hearty supper. The ship was the Morosini, bound from Naples to Cette. The captain had, it appears, perceived the balloon during the afternoon, and had actually gone out of his course for several hours in the hope of rescuing it's passengers But the balloon sped along much faster than be- and Signor Psnieln was obliged to give up the chase. The meeting in the dark was thus pure acci- dent. The balloon had drifted about, while the ship had held to it's course. The unlucky occupants of the Gabriel were picked up about half way between the mainland and Corsica, and but for the timely appearance of the Morosini they must inevitably have been lost As for the balloon, as soon as they had quilted the car it shot once more into the air with lightning speed, and may be careering still, for all any one knows to the contrary.

The Presi- dent remarked that the primal question un- der discussion was whether the present in- cumbent, who had served but four years, was a worthy and effective officer. 'sSo far as I can learn," said the President, ..the citizens of that place seem to be nearly unanimous in his favor" The Con aressman replied: T supposed was the rep ressntative of my district, and my wishes would be respected.

wATERING THE sTREETs,

Those interested in devising a plan for watering the streets are invited to be present at the meeting of the Committee on Streets this evening at room 10 City Hall, when the subject will be discussed. AS every citizen is or ought to be interested in this important matter, there should be a large attendance. Moreover, at this or some other meeting in the near future, something should be done. We have all eaten our peck of dirt thus early in the year, and the prospect of another peck or more is not at all pleasant. In another column Dr. Tyler offers some suggestions which may aid those who think of going to the meeting this evening All will agree with him that the watering should be com menced as early and continued as late in the season as the annoyance from dust exists.

], THE CHARTER MATTER.

The Committee on Cities and Boroughs
 met yesterday and made a decision concern
 ing the proposed changes in the charter of
 this city. The committee accepted, with
 some minor alterations, the last plan laid be- fore it, which provides that the city commis-
 sions shall consist of three members of each party. the Mayor to be er-e1fcio chair
 man of the boards, and to have the casting vote when there is tie, except in the cleo ton or dismissal of officers. This decision will, as far as '1ocal self government" is con cerned, meet the hearty approval of. those who protested against the first two plans. There will, however, remain difference of opinion concerning the wisdom of some DOT tions of the plan adopted Nevertheless, it will probably go through the Legislature.

 A"gorgeous'' wedding was that of Prince
 William of Prussia and Princess Victoria of
 Schlesuig- -Holstein, which recently took place
 in Berlin The gifts received by the young
 couple were innumerable, and almost bound
 less in value The principal gift was from
 the one hundred chief towns of Prussia, con-
 sisting of the silver appurtenances of a
 princely table, which cost $1Oo, 900 in gold
 This magnificent gift included $50 silver
 plates Another gift was 10000 bottles of
 old hook from Nassau. From the Queen of
 England and Empress of India was received
 e large silver vase, embossed with cupids and
 flowers, also miniature of HersMajesty beau
 tifully set in diamonds and rubies. A char
 acteristic gift from the Prince of Wales was
 the complete outfit of sporting man. Another very elegant present consisted Of twenty-four napkins embroidered by natives
 of Nassau with scarlet silk and edged with
 notices. Pomerania contributed rare and
 costly silver service, and the Grand Duke and Duchess, the bridegroSm's uncle and
 aunt, sent grand old fashioned clock, tall and beautifully carved, with panel of oak, showing Fortuna holding aloft the shield of the happy couple who were to receive it. More than another score of royal personages sent gifts that were elegant and costly, be sides which there were 8 thousand and one lesser offerings, not to count the Illuminated addresses from cities, towns, universities and corporations, nor the offerings of poets, sculptors and painters.
 They have ''a learned barber" in New York who writes very readable articles for the Sun. He had som mething to say about badness yes- terday, which, though it may not make him popular with sellers of hair tonics, seems sen- sible. A part of it is as follows: 'I don't think am far from the truth when I say that during the past twenty five years that I have practiced the profession of hairdresser, I have made the trial upon different bald 1 heads of more than 800 different hair tonics, and am bound to admit that never saw single head the hair of which was restored by 1 them after badness.

The bad habit l of wearing hats indoors is also very hurtful | to the hair. In 1906, after the famons battle l of Jena, in which the Prussians were com | pletely defeated by Napoleon l., Baron Lar rey, the celebrated military surgeon, per ceived that many of the German prisoners were completely bald.
