Julian Ralph has been describing Chi

amount of business done by these NAM
moth slaughter houses is given in this
extract from Mr.. Ralph's articles: Gas
l passed out of the yards some one
handed card to me. 1t contained
a record of the business of one firm, the
leading one of the "Dig four" packing
concerns. 1t showed that during the
year ending April l, 1891, that company
transacted sales of $50, 900, ,O0J worth Of
meat and other goods. 1t killed 7l2, =
900 cattle, LIZA, 900 hogs and nearly
500, 900 sheep. 1t employed 1900 per-
sons and paid nearly 81, 100000 in
wages. 1t owned 225O refrigerator cars
aud fifty acres of buildings. 1t made
1000, 900 pounds of glue aud $500 tons
of fertilizers. | suspect that its hogs
and sheep and boxes OF glue and sides
of beef and caus of meat may stretch
out, if piled one on the other, from here
TO the moon, but leave the calculation
to others, satisfying myself with the re-

Some worthy people of Boston, ac-
cording TO the New York Post, are
working at "A plan to keep chlIdrrn oil

have opened summer play-rooms and
gymnasium3 in various parts of the
city, in some instances in churches.
For the very Youngest children toys
are provided, and sandbank In a
yard adjoining is not forgotten. The
other children have the use of horl-
zontal bars, ladders, flying rings, etc,
and are taught exercises for strength
ening the limbs. Instruction in
kindergarten work is also given, such
as pricking cards, sewing them into
designs, and folding paper. For
those so minded there Is singing in
classes. Twice day doors are thrown
open to the youngsters for four hours
each time. The ages of the children
range from three to twelve, and they
are Of all crcods and nationalitics.
The prompters admit that in one re-
spect their undertaking in operation
has disappointed ,hem; the boys do
not always take kindly TO the recre-
alton provided for them, prefcrring
rougher sports, aud are apt to drop
ont Of the classes. Their places are
at once taken by girls, who have never
had such chance 10 play and romp in
their lives. But as the experiment of
tanning the street Arab is only in its
first chapter, 80 to speak, there is no
reason for setting it down as failure.
