The old sanitarIan Talks Abou

The old SanltarIan Talks About
 Beaver Ponds. To the Editor of the JOURNAL AND COURIER:
 Yesterday morning read communica- tion about Beaver Ponds and bad smells.
 While was reading it my granddaughter asked me to come to breakfast. I told
 her could not eat for joy at the thought
 that knew so much more than the author
 of that letter.
 This writer is possessed of the ignorant
 notion that the board of health should
 proclaim the Beaver Ponds an unhealthy
 location because it smells badlyl Aha!
 See what trap is here set to catch the
 Scientists who compose our board of
 health. If they walked into it, the ignor- ant population would then say: eff this place is unsanitary because 1t smells badly then things and places which do not smell
 are not unhealthful."
 Now the fact is that all true Scientists know that smell which does not smell, and which cannot be found, is far more dangerous to the public health than a smell which smells. This fundamental principle of Sanitary Science has often been set forth in the learned reports of our board of health, and full knowledge of it is one of the things which distinguishes | the Sanitary from the vulgar mind. Any l ignorant person can see that whatever se- riously affects the sense of smell should be removed as a common nuisance, and our l board of health could wisely make conces- sion to popular ignorance to the extent of yielding to the prejudice against dead l dogs.
 But, if they abandon the Scientific ground they have always taken that 'nothing is so dangerous as smells which | are not detectable" and thus admit that common people are capable of knowing ! what is unhealthy, then they lose the mys. tery which should envelop them. The true l test of Scientific Sanitarian is found in | his ability to mystify and scare ignorant persons, and nothing raises the hair on ar l average mans head so quickly as to tell l him that he is surrounded with danger l ous utterly unknown gas, full of terrible bacteria, which have not been discovered l or, as our state board of health has said | that he is in danger from ''micro organisms not yet detected"
 Mystery is fine thing to enhance the l importance of Sanitarians. Thus, wher one of our board of health testified that "a corpse in an icebox would do no harm so long as it's presence was not known, | he bewildered his auditors and thus main tained the dignity of Science, which is ou' | bounden duty.
 l Besides the foregoing high considera tions, it should always Ebe remembered that we want More Power and Nor
 Money, and if the ignorant foolishness O
 the people should lead them to doubt tha we possess some wonderful secrets, the,
 would refuse to give us what we need. AK OLD SANITARIAN.

 Nearly all brought trophies of the day s outing. Women who had been among the Umbrisn "statesmen's" farms were laden with poultry, butter, eggs, cheese, knots of homespun yarn, and many an article representing hours of toll, which had been exchanged for bit of gibberish and G "fortune;" while those from the villages of Ambleside, Bowness or Windermere, and some who had even journeyed to far of Kendall, chattered gaily over trifiing purchases and gewgaws of worthless tin sel and color Now and then a gipsy ap- peared in the lively condition of spirits indicating that considerable liquor had en- tered into the days jockeying among the wise yokels of the remoter hamlets; but while some general sport was had with the fellow, it was not difficult to see that his
 weakness was the subject of general dis. approval. Indeed there is an universal
 unwritten law among gipsies that all men
 may profit from. The adage runs in thii
 wise: "Only gipsy fool letteth his wit,
 fly away through drink when he hatt
 aught to do." And there is & world o
 wisdom in that little sentence, if thes, rude people did make it.
 But soon the camp was everywhere filleG
 with life and activity. Horses neighed
 donkeys prayed; dogs charged and tun bled over children and between horse. heels; while old men and women seemed to renew their youth and smiled and gab bled upon and with home-comors, witt each other, and as if with the empty air Snatches of song begun by gipsies at ont extremity of the camp were taken up and finished with flourish at the other Her,

Dark Clouds Rising.

The Gillian Government has replied
to United States Minister Fgan's de-
mand for reparation for the recent at
tack upon the United States steamship
Baltimores crew. 1t is Il refusal t, &C
cept responsibility for the affair. Min
lister Egan has notified the state Ie-
partment at Washington, and decisive
action IS looked for very quickly. The
authorities of Valparaiso have gone 50
lar as to refuse to guarantee the safety
or market boats coming to that city
from the United States War-ship Ralti-
more, or the safety of officers of that
vessel coming ashore at nj ght Minister
Egan has notified our Government that
the crew OF the Baltimore are practi
cally boycottcd, and no American sail
ors are permitted to land at that ort.
Much surprise is expressed at the very
strong Language In which the Gillian
Governments reply is Coached.
The attack on the blue Jackets of the
cruiser Baltimore occurred in the streets
of Valparaiso on oct Ii, and was, n
the opinion OF the OF GERS of the Balti-
more, due mainly to the feeling of hos
tility entertained by the mass of Chilians
toward Americans. The police Of the
city, as the investigation of the affair
by Captain w. S. Schlcy and the officers
Of the Baltimore showed. assisted the
mob In its assault upon the sailors.
The Chflians were armed with knives
and pistols, and the blue Jackets had no
weapons.
One of the blue jackets, Charles Rig
gin, q boatswain's mate. was dragged
from a street car by a mob and shot to
death. Five more men were danger
ously wounded with knives and bay

One has since died Of his wounds
That the police joined in til" attack on

Thirty-five sailors were arrested by
the use of much unnecessary force,

whether there were any qualifying facts
