A NOTABLE CONFERENCE.

1t is cause for congratulation among
the peoples of the earth that all the Euro
pean Powers have sent in their agreement
to participate in the Sanitary Congress to
be held at Rome next month. Italy has
the honor of having suggested the confer
enoe. She was led to do so by the preva.
lence of the cholera in Egypt last year,
and the fear of its temperance next year.
The conference is to discuss series of
proposed international sanitary regula-
tions. 1t may be accepted as certain that
the result of such a council will be of great
benefit to the civilized world. TIE great
nations of the East have common inter.
est in sanitary reform, and in preventing
the spread of epidemics, and it cannot be
that they will meet and disagree at the
coming conference as to the best means to
be adopted to prevent the spread of the
cholera. The gathering will be a notable
one, and we may reasonable look for its
proceedings to be full of scientific interest,
since all the nations will send men espe.
cially skilled in sanitary science to counsel
with the political agents who will be
present.

TO BE PITIsD.

The Examiner can only grumble over the
settlement by the Railroad Commissioners
of the new freight schedule. The most
radical of the anti-railroad papers, which
were content with nothing but cinching
process, are now admitting generally that
the freight reductions are material. When
;t was proposed in the Commission that
the reductions be made more immediate by
accepting waiver of the railroad compa.
MES Of service of schedules upon them,
the Ecaminer waxed wroth and declared
that such proceeding would be illegal,
and called upon Commissioner Foote to op.
pose it. But to its astonishn.ent he did
not dc so, but expressed his belief in the
entire legality of the proceeding and
voted for it. The Examiner is really to be
pitied. It plainly demonstrates by its
rabid utterances that all its anti.railroad
bowling has been for political effect and not
10 the interest of the State. It has but
one cry left, and that is "extra ses-
sion." 1t will still for time cling to it,
but even now there is no vigor in its excla-
nations.

INTELLIGENT DoGs-Among dogs the
poodle and the colly have always been
conspicuous fer general intelligence. Other
species develop particular faculties in ex.
traordipary degrees, like the st. Bernards,
which can find men buried in the snow
where reasoning beings fail to do SO the
Newfoundlands, that can be trained, as on
the Seine, to act together and without hu-
man supervision in saving drowning per-
sons the pointer, the setter, and so forth.
Pre-. eminent, however, for sagacity that
approaches human reason more nearly than
any other is that of the colly, or shepherd
dog for it is a fact too well established to
be challenged that these animals are not
only capable of being trained to do their
masters usual duties, with unvarying eff
cheney and punctuality, but that when un-
foreseen circumstances arise to make devi.
alton from the regular routine necessary,
they recognize the necessity and act upon
their own discretion with amazing judg-
ment. Fable, it is true, tells of demoral.
lied shepherd dogs that have wickedly
connived with wolves against their mas
ter's interests. But these are fables, and
merely point to the moral that even the
wise may not be uniformly sagacious, and
that Homer may on occasion nod Lon.
don Standard.

the hope he entertained for the oncoming
generation. However with his contempt.
raries he may have differed, however hotly

private relations. Young journalists will
remember him as man who had for
them at all times, even when coupled with
criticism, kind and encouraging word,
and who never used his position to humiliate
them. As writer, Mr.. McClatchy made
no pretense to the ornate in style or the
imaginative. He was practical and plain
talker, who loved to go to work at short
range and to keep an engagement hotfrom
the beginning to the eni. He believed no
battle was worth fighting that WAS not
worth fighting with vigor, and for all there
was in it. He knew perfectly well that
he could not measure the Importance of
the profession of which he was a member,
nor the gravity of the ministry of the
press," but he was content to put his
shoulder to the wheel of the mighty en-
gine of progress, and to give to its mo-
mentum the best that in him was, and to
continue in the effort to life's close-just
as he did, for he died in harness worn out

NOT THE RAILROADS THIS TIME.

A puzzling question to Bostonians for
some time has been, what makes bread so
dear on the Atlantic coast? The problem
has been solved by Edward Atkinson, the
statistician and financial expert for the
Senate Committee on Education and Labor.
The solution is brief and interesting, and
it applies to other sections as we'll as to
Boston. 1tsuggests that analyses of many
like questions may produce similar results.
1t is customary to lay almost every appa.
rent commercial wrong at the door of the
railroads of the country, and deaf ear is
apt to be turned to any carrier corporation
that attempts denial. But in the Bos-
ton case tie explanation removes from
the carrier the blame for the high price of
bread. Mr.. Atkinson's examination shows
this result: Bread costs from six cents a
pound upwards to the consumer in Boston !;
one barrel of -four makes nearly 300 pounds
of bread barrel then costs the con-
sumer, in bread, SIS; 100 barrels cost,
therefore, 81, 500; the farmer at the west re-
ceives for the wheat for 100 barrels of -four,
$500; the miller receives, net, about $50;
a barrel of flour, with barrel, transporta.
tion and commissions, can be had for, say,
S. 60; or for 100 barrels the cost in Bos.
ton is $500. It follows, then, that there
remains to be accounted for 81, 240 before
the bread reaches the consumers mouth.
As consequence the baker must be the
respondent. On every 100 barrels of -four
he pays for wages, cost of operating his
works, interest on the investment in the
plant, cost of delivery and profits to him.
self, 81, 24O. or SI2 40 per barrel. The
transportation of wheat and -four from the
West to Boston costs, of the 81, 500, about
$3.50, or 10 per cent. OF this, about S54
is net gain, or 3 per cent. of the cost.
Thus, says the statisticisn, per cent. goes
to the railroads for freight, % per cent. to
the farmer, small per cent. to the miller
and for commissions, etc., and the re-
mainder-the great bulk-to the baker.
Put it as one may, the cost of bread to
the Boston consumer cannot be charged to
the railroads.

1t is admitted now in London, not only that Mary
Anderson, the American girl. is handsomer by far
than Mrs Laugtry, but is actress OF rare merit,
while the Langtry woman is a stick. The English
are becoming sensible about these matters OF beauty
and dramatic art, and admitting that something
worth notice is produced in America occasionally.
