''BoYs will be boys" to the end of the chapter; and we certainly should not like the man of whom it could be said: Che was never boy" Boyhood by en means with it's fun and frolics, it's merriment and mischief; but we would restrict the reck- lessness of these qualities within the boun- daries of respect for age and care of pub lie comfort. There is no respect for age in making slides on the sidewalks; and no consideration of general comfort in extend ing traps and footballs for the unwary. All yesterday the boys were at this work with relish of the enjoyment that was re- warded by many 8 down-come; and while the victims indulged in profanity, the youngsters laughed pleasantly, and passed. This might be all very exciting if it were not so very dangerous, "A broken ankle or fractured wrist is an unwelcome attend ant on boyish glee. Policemen, and pa rents and the passing public generally, should aid in expressing, the boy enthusi asm of the season.

THE complications in the coal regions still continue: and whether there is an ab- solute coal famine or that the occasion is seized on factitiously to create a "corn err the public even in distant cities are begin ming to feel the increase in price of fuel. This is bad time, in regard of that prime necessary of life, to be put in process of practical education on the political econo- my of ill-advised strikes or the gambling expedients of spectators in public com forts and requirements Coal, we are told is not be had at any price in Eastern Penn sylvania. The influence of the dearth ex- tends. Even the posse ssion of large stocks will not prevent an upward tendency all over. In the Naugatuck Valley the out come of the strikes in the Lehigh Valley are felt, and in Waterbury particularly we find that "coals is coals' as the the dealer said; though we sometimes experience the fact given in the rejoinder that they are lin great part slate" We have had some ques- tions put to us on the advisability of lay ing in supplies.

In some places there is not the smallest attempt at clear ance-in others it is so inefectively done that it were better left undone-and m some few there are sprinklings of saw-dust which but serve to conceal treacherous ice hummocks. There is, we believe, no City Ordinance of compulsory character m this matter, but surely the traders might make an ordinance unto themselves as binding as any official decree. Or the general public

BEERMAKERs I'D COUNCIL.
some Facts From the Brewers
whose National Association has
8ean in Session at St. Paul.

Hundreds OF wealthy brewers from every
important point in the United States have
held their annual meeting at st. Paul. Lo-
cal option and prohibition were treated
at length by reports concerning the exist
ing laws in different states. The growth OF
the association has been enormous during
the past year the production has been 22,-
AGO, 335 barrels, of which 1885, 537 bar
rels were produced by members OF the as
sociation, and 5,084, 79S barrels were pro.
duced by brewers outside the association.
The report OF the publication and vigil
ance committee was read by Gallus
Thoman, manager OF the literary bureau.
The report shows how the sale OF beer is
not the cause of crime to such an extent
as people believe. The following statistics
are given:
OF $50 murders, which could be traced
to their origin (the totalnumber being
1.oo9), 266 were caused byloye or lust and
their offsprings Jealousy and infidelity, Or
by domestic infelicity, with it's multiform
causes, to which latter incompatibility Of
temperament contributes the ions's
share: LIZ were caused by greed, the OBJ

The report concludes with a statement
OF the moneys required for the coming
year.
Louis Schode, editor OF the Washington
Sentinel and attorney OF the association,
next presented his report. It related prin-
cipally to the internal revenue and excise
laws and the tariff measures now pending
but Mr.. Schode was OF the opinion that
no tariff bill would be passed this seas on.

Some Suggestions Put Forth at a
Sanitary Conference in Mime

sanitary conference OF Minnesota ply
slclans have been in session at Rochester.
Charts were conspicuously displayed be-
hlnd the chairman s desk. They were the
work OF DIR. Hewitt, and were the result OF
long and we'll directed labor as secretary
OF the state board Of health. The reports
from more than /, 900 local health boards
have been epitomized in these graphic
charts, and the prevalence and ia
tally OF diseases during 1857, the
results OF race characteristics on dis
ease and numerous other facts are very
plainly depicted, so as to be underst God
att glance. 1t is q matter OF state pride
that these charts are the first that have
ever been compelled by any state board Of
health in the United States. and to Dr.
Hewitt belongs the credit OF being the first
state health officer who has gone through
the necessary arduous correspondence. At
the microscopical exhibition given to the
members OF the conference and a few in
vited guests, the new microscope owned
by the state board was shown, together
with a few OF local ownership. Bacteria
OF several diseases were shown, the most
interesting being the bacillisof leprosy, the
specimens being furnished by DR.. G.. Ar
mauer Hanson, surgeon OF the leper hos.
pital at Bergen, Norway.
Ut. w. "a. IlQnO=Ol NOfCnllelu# presented
g. paper on the means OF preventing the
spread OF Infectious diseases. He claimed
that three-fourths OF all disease was pre-
ventable, and that non prevention was
due more to carelessness than any thing
else. He urged compulsory vaccination
of children, and insisted that smallpox
could become an unknown malady il the
world would combine to prevent it's
spread
To-day it is on the increase in the United
States, and prompt measures will be need
ed to check it's progress. It is every one s
duty to at once report any suspected case,
and TO cheerfully comply with the direc-
tions Of the local health authorities. The
cause OF most OF the infections diseases be-
ing germs that find Judgments in filthy sur
rouudings is reason enough for the strict
enforcement OF sanitary laws. The

Prohibition Natlona, Convention.

At the prohibition National Convention
in session at Indianapolis Bishop Tur-
ner, OF the African M. E. church, and now
located in Georgia, was called to stand.
He made an energetic address, eulogizing
the past record OF the Republican party,
but declaring that, as it had stopped in
its good work and was now bowling before
king alcohol, it was time for all good men
to come out OF it. The prohibition party
dence, brought into existence to re-
move the only curse that stood in
the. way OF a perfect civilization,

vious question method.

wodld rather be elected president OF this
convention by the men and women before
me than elected president OF the United
States by the rum power. We have every
thing to encourage US. Even day the
old parties are beginning to give way.
Recently the wires brought us news that
one OF the leaders OF the oldest party in
the nation, feeling that the republican
Babylon was crumbling, had concluded
not to be crushed in the fall. In fact, he had
vacated the premises. Perhaps another
message may fash over the wires from the
White House, saying | surrender to the
defenders OF my country. | thank God
that this is not convention OF Demo.

Initiated with the fumes OF rum, whisky

knows no North nor South, but does
know one country, one people, one flag,
one destiny, q connection that is one in
all things that shall tend to give greater
protection our homes, greater fraternal
relations to our people, a convention that
will accomplish such a work that in frl-
ture years our children will stand upsand
call us blessed.
