City Sanitation.

II Is to be hoped that the City Council
will give immediate attention to the sani-
tary reforms to which its attention has
been called by the Chamber of Commerce.
The old Council should act; we cannot
afford TO wait for the new one. No time
should be lost.
Especially does Richmond need better
food-inspection laws. Impure or at least
diluted, milk is sold here in amazingly
large quantities. and unsound meat and
decsying vegetables are disposed of with
out much hindrance. and they generally
pass into the hands of the poor.
A systematic and sensible plan for the
improvement Of Shockoe crock should
also be adopted, and regular annual ap-
preparations therefor be made. This Will
have TO be done sooner or later and be-
ginning might as we'll be made now; but
30 far az we have yet seen there is an alb
sence Of eUidence-evidence. not asser-
tions-to show that the neighborhood of
Shockoe creek is any more unhealthy than
any other neighborhood of this city inhab-
tied by q similar population. But decen-
cy, at least. requires that it should be
covered in; and Il we do not do this the
city may subject itself to suits for damages
from adjacent property-owners.
The summer will soon be upon us. Let
ms 60 to work. Or. do we want to have
ourselves talked about as We were last
summer?

The Indemnity to italy

The Marquis IMPERIALr, IN his note to Mr..
BLAINE accepting as full indemnity for
all the unlawful acts committed against
Italians IN the celebrated Louisiana riots,
the $4,000 offered by this country,
takes occasion to remind Mr.. BLAINE that
the parties damaged in these riots will pro-
coed to prosecute their cases in the courts.
The Marquis says
THE Kings government does not hesitate TO
accept this indemnity without prejudice to tho
judicial steps which 1t may be proper for the par
ties 70 take"
Well. UNCLE SAM Is such big man that
be con afford to be generous towards coun-
tries which are not strong enough to cope
with him on land OF sea- We are glad that
whatever IS unsettled in this Italian case is
to 60 TO the courts for settlement.

Wyoming Did Not Instruct.

As was stated yesterday in our tele-
graphic columns. Wyoming elected on
Thursday to the Democratic National Con-
vention six delegates. most of them HILL
men. but refused to instruct them as TO
what they should do in Chicago This
course was eminently proper-especially in
a State so far as Wyoming is from the
population-centres of the Union. That
State is more modest than other Republican
States which instruct their delegates as to
the man they shall support for President
Of the United States. though these Repub-
lican States well know that they will cast
not On electoral vote for that man. The
South must cast q solid vote for the Demo-
cratic nominee thus selected by the Re
publican States We Of the South, and
our Trustworthy associates. New York, New
Jersey, and Indiana, must do the work
thus cut out for us by Democrats who will
not be able to aid us in any manner to
elect the nominee they will have forced
upon us. We would not dIsfranchise these
States. but would like for them to be more
considerate of the wishes of the Demo-
cratic States.
Richmond dispatch. [volume] (Richmond, Va.) 1884-1903, 1892-04-16
The Presidential Flgures.

We cannot but recall to mind constantly
the fact that the Democrats cannot afford
TO lose one single southern State, nor one
of the Democratic northern States with
out being outrun in the presidential race.
Let US impress the figures upon the
minds of all good Democrats. The whole
number of votes in all the electoral COL
leees is 444. Necessary TO choice, 223. OF
these the solid South must give l59.
The Democrats cannot lose even the lit
tie State of Florida without being defeat
ed. Then they must get New York, New
Jersey. and Indiana-the only States the
Democrats can hope to win from the north
ern Republicans. The total will then be
22O or three less than the number neces-
sary to choice. These three they may
get in Connecticut or Michigan.
What risk we shall take II we shall
nominate man who cannot carry New
York ?
The figures speak for themselves We
leave them with our readers.

the company Of Floy Crowell. The BODY
was brought TO this city. and the funeral
will take place to-day.
Rita Booth was clever character actress
and often declared that she did not wlsh
to rise 10 any eminence III the dramatic
profession. because she feared her relation
shin would bring unpleasant notoriety.
She wore ALWAYS a medallion locket con-
tanning likeness Of the ill-fated wilkes
Booth.
Several people who knew Booth claim 70

the big OK eyes, the curly hair, ana bigh
brow of the man who was regarded as the
rising actor of his time. Two cnildren-

Number of People Since Adam

Did you ever make a calculation OF
the probable number of people that have
inhabited our globe since the beginning
of time? No doubt you will say that
such calculations involve loss of time,
and are after all barren of results. But
let us take few minutes time and ap-
proximate, with certain degree of
accuracy, the number of souls that have
been ushered into this wicked world
since the time when it was ''not good for
Adam to be alone"
AT the present time it is believed that
there are 1,400, 0,000, 900 human beings on
the globe; but let us suppose that there
has been but an average of 100000, 900
living at any one time since the crea-
tion. Next, to give room for any possible
doubt, we will put the average length
of life at fifty years. Qt may have been
much longer than that 5000 years ago,
but has been much shorter for the last
1000 years. With the average length
of life as above, we have had two gen
erations of 100000, 900 each every CEN
tury for the past 5000 years.
Taking this for granted this globe has
had 66,627 ,S43, ,237, ,075, 1866 human in
habitants since the beginning of time.
To even bury this vast number the
whole landed surface of the globe, every
inch of it, would have to be dug over 100
times'-Philadelp Press.

little clicking noise that he knew well,
Gomez Still holding him by the hal
ter with my hands, we started and ran
like veritable thieves. We both seemed
to have renewed our youth l ran,
thinking only that l had regained q lit
tie of my lost happiness. lido not know
how far we had gone when heard a
voice calling after me-.
Instead of stopping l ran all the fast
er, Riquet leading and fairly dragging
me after him. 1t was wild chase, the
earth fairly flying from under our feet!
l was breathless, but could still hear
the voice behind us carried on the wind.
The blood was ringing in my ears, and
my breath stopped in my throat. Sud-
denly felt heavy hand grasp nv
shoulder and coarse voice said, ''Thiefl'
1t was all that the man could say, for
he, too, was at the end of his strength.
At last he regained his breath, and as
we were nearing a village he made an
effort to call to some men who were
drinking and laughing at a tavern. He
still held me by my collar, but had
taken the halter out of my hand. Riquet
no longer led the way He was hauled
along, and had tricky look in his eve.
The men answered the call, and as the
grasp which was choking me relaxed l
recognized the man who had bought
Riquet.
Two officers prevented my escape. A
crowd collected, and I had nothing to
say in self defense. The farmer told of
my wild fight, which of course aggra-
waited the offense. Your honor, / assure
you Riquet seemed to comprehend it
all! They put me in prison and my
donkey id the pound to await the trial.
1 only ask of you to give orders that
Riquet shall be well cared for. This is
the whole story. / have told it truth
fully. | am here because am guilty.
In fact, we are both of us guilty. But
l still maintain am not genuine thief.
Respectfully your servant, JOSE.
81 shall not leave until after this
trial." said to my friend. 81 wish to
hear your judgment in the case of this
poor fellow"
''There is something better than that
which you can do" he replied. 81 am
not at liberty to do it, but you can find
this farmer who claims the donkey. If
you pay him the price of the donkey
and small sum in addition that will
end it all.
No sooner said than done. For 100
francs l could have the little animal
then and there, and the man was only
too glad to withdraw the complaint.
We returned Riquet to his first mas
ter. One looked as happy as the other.
