Health Officer Kilvington
Makes His Annual Report
to the Council.
A Document That Is Liable
to Set People to Think
ing.
Village Methods Followed I'm
der Metropolitan Condi-
tons Heretofore.
Something Has Been Accom-
plished, but More May
Be Done.

Health Officer S. S. Kilvington has
completed his annual report to the city
council, and the same will be presented
at the next meeting. The document is
long one and is full of good points as
nut is of meat. In his Introductory,
DR.. Kilvington speaks of the natural
advantages of the city, and then goes
Oil to say: Her people have come to a
point where they cannot ignore the
facts that the chemistry of nature is no
longer sufficient for the task of waste
disposal; that the earth and air are suf-
fering pollution from the accumulated
waste products of human and animal
life and from the remains of human and
animal dead. The. rapid growth of
population, the multiplication of facto-
ries, mills and slaughter houses,
and of apartment and tenement
buildings, the progressively i'll
creaslng number of privy vaults,
garbage pits and cesspools, the inclusion
OF cemeteries within the city limits,
each and all are the influences which
have contributed to this result. Village
methods have been perpetuated under
metropolitan conditions. Sanitary i'm
provements have not kept pace with
material progress, and the health record
of the city suffers i'll consequence.
Therefore | ask to carefully consider
this transitional epoch in our sanitary
history and to study fully the needs of
the hour. While we may sympathiSe
most heartily with the popular idea of
retrenchment at this stage of our NUM-
cipal affairs, we must realize that the
health interests of a large city cannot
be sustained upon the financial basis
which was ample for their needs dozen
years ago. The truest economy Sug-
gests some degree of active expenditure
toward the preservation of those natural
health conditions which have done SO
much to give the city the prestige of the
past. All of the reforms needed press
with present urgency upon US. The last
five months, am happy to say, have
seen the solution of some OF the prob
lens they present, but the greater part
still remain to be solved.

DIsPosING OF REFUSE.
A System of Licensed Scavangers
Strongly Recommended.

Another very interesting point in the
report is the collection and disposal of
refuse. The report states that to ind
and to order the removal of nuisance is an
easy task as compared with the duty Of
disposition of the waste material which
constitutes that nuisance. The absence
of regulated scavanger system adds
comple&ity to the problem. Again and
again the present board Of health has
sought to simplify the question, so far
as the collection of refuse is concerned,
by recommending to the council the
adoption of a licensed scavanger sys-
TEN. Up to the present time these
suggestions have not borne fruit
In consequence the scavangerS conduct
very much as they please, at their own
prices, at their own homes, according
20 their own methods, and to such
points for its disposal as their own con-
venience or pleasure may dictate.
Under such circumstances, it is i'm
possible to secure that sorting of waste
materials which would 60 far to solve
the problem of their possible utility, or
their necessary destruction. The de-
partment has submitted your honorable
body plan for the regulation of scay-
cnser service of the city. Which, if

The New York association had very
pleasant time at their monthly meeting
held i'll Curtiss hall Wednesday even
ing. A very entertaining musical pro-
gramme, in which the singing of Miss
Ripe and the violin solos of Miss Bragg
are to be particularly commended, was
first enjoyed. This programme, how
ever, was finished early in the
evening, and dance of twelve num-
bers furnished pleasure for the remain
der of the evening. These monthly
meetings of representative of ones
native state are delightful occasions,
and the New Workers find fully as much
enjoyment in them as people from any
other state.
On Monday night about 200 of the
Minneapolis Michiganders gathered at
.Curtiss hall for an evening of social en-
joyment. 1t was thoroughly informal
affair and for that reason all the more
enjoyable. Dancers filed the main
portions of the hall. and tables, at which
were grouped the players or cards, were
in the aicoves. Refreshments were
served in daintiest style by the ladies.
Ahe evening was one of rare enjoy

Olson's Millinery Opening Pro-
claims the Fact That Flowers
Are the Thing for Trimmings
This Season.
AS an eloquent writer in an evening
paper put it the other day: 1.-The pres
ent is pre-eminefitly the season of flower
trimming. The feathered sougster,
whose CHEEKY note was once silenced by
the demand of some fair one for his
gorgeous plumage, is spared to chirrup
his medley of tones. Ostrich plumes
and fancy tips, too, have taken second
place in the estimation of the leaders of
fashion,
1Thursday, Friday and Saturday of
the past week were three very impor-
tant days at the establishment of S. E.
Olson & Co. They were set apart for a
grand Millinery opening, and the sue
cess which attended the efforts OF the
managers makes it pleasing memory,
both TO them and to an appreciative
public. 1t would be impossible here to
give even faint idea of what was
ShoWn-Sueh vast array of beautiful
goods simply defies description. A
fashionable world would not fail to be
delighted at an inspection of the stock.
There is so much to see and the variety
is so great, that there seems to be
nothing left for the mind to suggest.
TO quote once more from the able
writer spoken of:
ioletS and modest field daisies, the
commonest of flowers Hs bature's vast
conservatory, were selected by the mil
liners to open the season. They have
been all the rage, and but for the cheap
ness with which they have been dis
pensed, their popularity would still be
increasing. But the woman's vanity
will never allow her to wear what
everybody else wears, and the milfiners
report that the manufacture of yiolets
has ceased. After the present supply
is exhausted the violet will have its day
But sweet yioletS' and daisies could
only have been supplanted by the queen.

TWICE TOLD TALES.

Yesterday afternoon as Chief Bracket was
sitting in his private Office at the city nall
wondering what neXt?' an attenuated in
divi dual, with long hair, came into the out
side office walking with a sleuth-like tread
his face blanched with fear and his voice
trembling with suppressed emotions. He
turned and looked up and down the corridor
to see if he was being Swallowed and then
leaning over the rail ana asked for the chief
of police, and Clerk George showed him into
the chiefs office and departed. When he had
gone the mysterious visitor strobe stealthily
across the floor, closed the door, and, return
ing, laid his trembling hand on Supt. Brack-
ett's shoulder and gasped Dynamite
''What:'
DYNAMITE
''No:"
Yes
Mr.. Bracket then babe the stranger to be
seated, and after trying the door into the
telephone office he returned, drew Il chair
close to that of his listener. and in low,
passionate whisper with occasional glances
over his shoulder he detailed wild, -untamed
anarchist plot in two acts, stating
that some of the striking street car
men had tons OF fearful explosives
storeI in an out of the way place, and were
pledged to use it in either defensive or
aggressive warfare against The police il the
latter should interfere with their plans in any
way. "A second Haymarket,' said he,
would be the result if The police come into
IL.
But L have traced The plot to its origin.
and il q massacre is attempted l can lay my
hands on the perpetrators of the awful
crime
He wanted 1900 or 1000 detectivesfsent
out with him Immediately to discover the
bombs and arrest the plotters. but Mr..
Bracket was too busy just then and con-
tented himself with taking the gentenlanss
name and address and promising to have the
matter Investigated.
And then old Sleuthn departed. reading
the very mind of every one he met as if he
expected to be assassinated before reaching
Washington avenue for having revealed the
plot.
There was quite an important real estate
sale the other day, and the reporter on Il
great morning paper who keeps tab on trans
feus of realty heard of it. For some reasons
however, the parties interested i'll the deal
refused to reveal their identity, probably be-,
cause of the peculiar location of the prop
erty. The purchaser happened to- be
one OF the proprietors of the great
daily paper aforesaid. and after he
had put his signature TO a contract, the con
neat sum of so 900, he eareleSsly asked the
reporter Why didn't you get the particulars
of that real estate sale:" The man of many
deeds thought it would not do to admit for
moment that there was anything on earth he
didn't know, so he answered impress
sively: Il have learned the full particu-
lars, but unfortunately l promised not to
diyulge Them Did you learn who
the parties to the deal were:'' Yes sir"
who were they?" asked the proprietor of
the great daily, much amused. You must
excuse me, but promised I would not tell
where | obtained my information" unulush-
ingly replied the reporter, unconscious that
he was talking to one of the purchasers. He
ton, but just where he stands with the pro
prictOr is uncertain
