OUR ST. LOUIS LETTER.
4 Summer Garden In the Air-Pro-
posed Extension OF the City Limits
,Tbe CIynssa and the Camera.

Summer Garden in the Air-Pro-
posed Extension OF the City Limits
The Chinese and the Camera.
ST. LOUIS, June 25.-The highest
summe garden In the world vill be
ready for the people by the beg inning
of next summer on the top OF a busi-
ness buildings now going up on Olive
street The building will be fifteen
stories high, and the garden will be on
top OF that. At present, 1t is intended
that the garden shall be simply for
people to sit in and look out over the
city, but it is quite possible that the
idea will be elaborated, and theatre
constructed on the lofty platform.
The building associations of st. Louis
have increased so rapidly that it has
be N almost impossible to keep count
of them in the last year. Well in
formed people put the number of them
now in the city at three hundred or
more. Their officers held a meeting
the other night, acting as State as
socation, and decided to ask the legisla-
ture to create the Office of State ex-
aminer of building associations. The
petition will doubtless be granted. An
officer of this sort would protect associa-
tions from Islander, and the stockhold-
ers from fraud.
The Chinese Of st. Louis are just be-
ginning to understand that they must
all be photographed by the collector of
internal revenue before May of next
year, and they are much disturbed
about it. This is in accordance with
the exclusion act, passed by Congress
last year. That provides for the photo
graphing of every Chinaman in the
country within year from the passage
Of the act, May ;, 1892. The Chinese
abominate photography as they do
newspapers, and they will make every
effort to evade the laws. There are
only 500 Chinese in st. Louis, accord
ing to the census. but more than half
Of these are never seen on the streets
The proposition made by Street Com
missioner Murphy of st. Louis. to in
crease the city's revenue by extending
its lines so as to take in great part of
St. Louis county will, of course, meet
with much opposition, but it Is gener-
ally regarded as a remarkable one,
nevertheless. The commissioner plan
viii double the area of st. Louis and
add half million dollars to its reve-
nue., but the opponents of the scheme
say that the county would demand
more than half a million dollars worth
of improvements as soon as brought
into the city. Yet, everybody comedies
that something must be done TO pro-
vide for the legitimate extension of
the city as it grows beyond the provis-
ions of the charter made fourteen
YEAR ago, and the commissioner plan
is the first attempt that has yet been
made by anybody to grapple with the
question. If Major Murphy's annex
alton boom succeeds the city will have
about $50, 600 people by the next cen
sus. as the new territory IS thickly
pOpulated.

GRAY HAIRS.
Aged Locks Do Not Always Indicate j
Decayed Constitution.

Aged Locks Do Not Always Indicate I
Decayed Constitution.
The fact that some persons begin to
show gray hairs while in their TWEEN
ties do not indicate premature dsca '
Of the constitution. 1t is purely local
phenomenon, and often co-sxists with
great physical vigor. A medical jour
nal says: Many persons; and others
who have suffered extremely, both
mentally and physically, do not blanch
hair until past middle life; while
others, without assignable cause. lose
their capillary coloring-matter rapidly
when about forty years of age.
Race has marked influence. The
traveller, DR.. orbigny, says that in
many years he spent in South America
he never saw bald Indian, aud scarce
ly ever a gray-headed one. The ne
gres turn more slowly than the whites.
In this country sex appears to make
little difference. Men and women
grow gray about the same period Of
life. In men the hair and beard rarely
change equally. The one is usually
darker than the other for several
years, but there seems no general rule
as to which whitens first.
The spot where grayness begins diff
fers with the individual The phil
osopher Schopenhauer began to turn
gray on the temples, and complacently
framed theory that this indicates
vigorous mental activity.
The correlation of gray hairs, as
well as its causes, deserve more atten-
tive study than they have received.
Such change is undoubtedly indiea-
tive of some deep-s Gated physiological
process; but what this is we can only
ascertain after more extensive observa-
tons than have yet been submitted to
science,
