Location of the Pest House ut Lake Como

Location of the Pest House at Lake Como
To the Editor Of the Globe:
A number of gentlemen Of capital have
recently purchased the Aldrich place on Lake
Como, intending to expend large sum Of
money in identifying the grounds, with a
view to the concentration at that point of q
large number Of our people who desire the
without having to go to lakes more remote to
secure them.
The new line of the Northern Pacific rail-
road will pass this property, and the author
tiles of the road, it is understood, have agreed
to establish depot there. This will enable
those who erect homes au opportunity to
reach them by rail at a trifliDg outlay.
The Aldrich place is susceptible of being
converted into one of the most beautiful
suburbs of our city, and, with fine roads, the
drive will be one of the most
pleasant and delightful in our
vicinity. understand that it
is proposed to establish the poor
farm anu pest house on the Park grounds
just west Of the grounds referred to. If that
be done the enterprise will necessarily fall
through for no one will care to build home
in close proximity to a pest house. sin
cerely hope that other sites may be selected
for these necessary institutions:
We have so few places Offering such in
ducements as Como. that in common with
the public in general 1 do hope that the
suicidal policy proposed may be abandoned.
In that case we shall have a beautiful
villa in our suburbs OF which we shall be
justly proud.
The only interest have in this matter is
that of every citizen who desires the devel-
opment and improvement of our surround
ings. r. w. JOHNSON.

They Were Not Walters.

To the Editor of the Globe;
In the interest of the walters of st. Paul I
wish to state that the three men recently
arrested at Heatherington's cafe were not
walters, but belong to class of men who prowl
around the country seeking what they may
devour, regardless of the means employed.
And any house who selects its employees on
the theory that any man who puts on a white
apron is waiter may always expect to be in
trouble, and the disaster resulting from such
recklessness in selecting employees is an in
justice to the men who are trying to support
their families in an honorable way by honor
able means. Yours truly,
RICHARD PARKER,

THE YOUNG IDEA.
The President of the Board of Education
Discusses st. Paul's School Facilities.

The President of the Board of Education
Discusses St. Paul's School Facilities.
In speaking of the growth of the city and
the general advancement in the public school
system Of st. Paul, DR.. Schiffmann, president
of the board of education, said yesterday
that the increase of the school going popula-
ton was almost phenomenal and that the
development of the school system was so
great that it was almost impossible to keep
pace with It.
The improvements contemplated for the
year 1885 included several school buildings
and additions, as follows: Grand Avenue
school, four rooms; the addition to the Mon
roe school, four rooms; the new school house
in Hands addition, four rooms; the addition
to the Sibley school, four rooms; the Cleve-
land school in the Sixth ward, eight rooms; the
addition to the Douglas school, four rooms;
the addition to the River school, four rooms,
and the Washington school, eight rooms.
The contracts for the above have all been
awarded, the total cost of construction being
slightly over 500, 900, against SIS, 900 eX-
pended in 1884 The seating capacity Of the
schools at the close of last year was about
$4,000, and when the present improvements
are completed the schools will have grand
seating capacity of $4,000.
In further speaking of the school system,
DR.. Schitfmann submitted
THE FOLLOWING STATEMENT:
The marvellous increase in population during
the past four years has been such that the tax
levy for school purposes has not kept pace with
it. The board is prohibited by law from issuing
bonds or otherwise increasing its debt, unless
specially authorized by special legislation. With
the limited means at hand the board has done
the very best it could. The rate of taxation
based upon the valuation of real and personal
property is made every two years. Hence we
must be content with receiving the same
amount of funds the second year that we did
the first irrespective of the increased attendance
at our schools. This increased attendance
necessitates increased expense, and we find
ourselves at the end of the year
with an empty treasury and unable
to meet the demands for increased
school facilities made upon Us. In 1881 special
legislation was secured authorizing the board to
issue certificates of Indebtedness to the amount
of scr, 900 for the erection of additional school
buildings, and special tax of one mill author
lied to be levied for three successive years to
pay this Indebtedness With this amount, to-
gether with what other moneys could be spared
from the general fund, and the sale of real estate
not necessary for school purposes, the board
erected the following buildings:

CIT Is MY BOY"

Through Rochester, N. Y, runs
the Genesee River, between steep
and rocky banks. There are falls
in the river and dark recesses.
One time a gentleman who lived
in the city had just arrived on the
train from a journey. He was anx-
ious to 60 home and meet his wife
and children. He was hurrying
along the streets with bright Wis
ion of home in his mind, when he
saw on the bank of the river lot
Of excited men.
whats the matter ?" he shouted.
They replied, "a boy is in the
water"
"Why don't you save him? ?" he
asked.
In moment, throwing down his
carpet-bag and pulling off his coat,
he jumped into the stream, grasp
ed the boy in his arms and strug-
gled with him to the shore, and as
he wiped the water from his drip
ping face and brushed back the
hair, he exclaimed, 20 God, it is
my boy!"
He plunged in for the boy of
somebody else and saved his own.
So we plunge into the waters Of
Christian self-denial, labor, hard
ship, reproach, soul-travail, prayer,
anxious entreaty; willing to spend
and be spent, taking all risks, to
save some other one from drowning
in sin and death, and do not know
what rehexive wave of blessing
will come to our own souls. In
seeking to save others we save our
selves and those most dear to us,
while others, too selfish to labor to
save other peoples children, often
lose their own Presbyterian.
And 80 it is that the Temperance
workers are crying out to every
man and woman, Spring to the res
cue Of these perjshang ones. II may
be your boy that you will save from
the fatal saloon!
