If there should be any epidemic
sickness in this coming crowded year,
the fact that Hygeia water can be
had cheaply in Chicago will be an
evidence, whose force every citizen in
the town can appreciate, that no pre-
caution to safeguard the city's guests
was neglected. 1t is no reflection on
the regular city water supply that
this feeling should be so strong. The
man who prefers spring water,
whether wisely or not, should have it
in all the quantity that he is pre-
pared to pay for and that any enter
prise can give. 1t costs Chicago
nothing to provide the opportunity;
on the contrary, the city exacts a
toll for the facilities granted. The
issue is simply whether the public
shall be provided at its own expense
with what many deem a necessary Of
life-water that is absolutely pure.

WHAT HYPOCRISY!

The DAILY press is opposed to the
maintenance of pool rooms, yet each
one of the papers maintains page
devoted to sporting events.
This page is merely collection of
tips on races and is the reproduction
of the blackboard of the pool room.
In fact, it only differs from the
pool blackboard in this, that
but few people go into pool rooms,
while the newspaper carries its "tips, ]"
@race cards." odds" and other gam
bling information into families.
YET these same newspapers which
carry the race fever" into every
household oppose the opening of high
toned and respectable gambling
houses under police supervision.
There is no harm in wide-open
gambling, if it is properly regulated.
No one is affected by it except the
gambler himself. Minors and work
ingmen can be kept out of these
places by proper police regulation.
And 50 long as the newspapers ca,
ter to the other kind Of gambling
by "touting" for snide race tracks,
just so long will the public decline tc
take any stock in their abuse Of fare
games.
Between faro and the race tracks
the former is the lesser evil. 1t is
only patronized by hardened sports,
while the race track is the ruination
of many a promising boy and poor
young man.
And, by the way the greatest
opcn-air gambling den In the world,
the Washington Park race track,
commences lbs hIdc1us work again

MCCARTHY DOES WELL.

Street superintendent Mccarthy is
making a fine record. He has dis
covered an immense number of paw
ing frauds. In his report he says;
Il directed the three expert paving
inspectors, who were especially en-
ployed for that purpose, to thorough
ly investigate the quality and guam
tity of material used and labor per-
formed on all streets improved since
May, 1891. To save the final reserve
for the purpose of making necessary
repairs at the expense of contractors,
or return the same to the property
owners assessed, | instructed the eX-
perts to begin with the Improvements
on which the guarantees were about
to expire. Up to date they have eX-
amined thirty-three streets improved
in 1891, twenty-three of which | con-
slider of sufficient importance to in
clude in statement herewith attached.
| have also included in this statement
thirteen streets improved in 1892, as
their present condition demands i'm
mediate attention As the number
OF streets so far examined is but a
small percentage of the total num-
Der improved in 1891 and 1892, and
as this investigation has produced
such startling results, | have re.
quested the experts to continue until
all the streets which were improved
during the past two years will have
been examined.
"You will observe from the detailed
report that in nearly every case a
large percentage Of the most valua-
Bile material called for in the specifi-
cations is short in the Improvements.
In every instance crushed granite is
short on macadam foundations and
macadam short on Stag foundations
The shortage of tar in cedar block
pavements varies from p per cent.
to so per cent In this class of i'm
provements proper attention has not
been given to the foundations to Ob
tain the results expected.

adam streets and the labor necessary

blocks, 50, 1880: total, 500. 1910.

Speaking about the contamination
of the lake water, the Daily News
printed the following editorial one
evening this week;
"Chicagoans Will not be able to de-
rive much comfort from DR.. Ernest
Harris comments on the drinking
water with which they are supplied
from Lake Michigan.
"One of the main points made by
the London sanitary authority is that
four times as much sewage is poured
into the river as is pumped out The
water in the river does not rise, and
whether or no the surface water is
running away from the lake the lake
is being polluted by the sewage
Speaking of the effect of this condi-
ton of affairs Mr. Hart said:
The prevalence of typhoid fever
is an index to the liability of cholera
Typhoid fever and cholera know only
one entrance to the body-the ali
mentary canal You can eat cholera
and drink cholera, but you cannot
catch cholera as any other contagious
disease is caught. Cholera is due to
specific poison diiTused through dirty
water Quarantine is useless, as
long as water taken from four-mile
cribs is mixed with water taken from
two and one mile and polluted with
sewage. There will be no safety un-
til the water is pure and you have
ceased pouring sewage into the
lake
when the great drainage system
is completed the danger which Mr.
| Hart points out will be removed"
But in the meantime, what shall
the remedy be: The responsible
/ ity resting upon the City Council
is a heavy one. DR.. Hart state,
that not one physician out of ter
dare drink the lake water without
first altering or boiling it,
No sane person nor hemost lcarnc,
| physician can take exceptions to, o
dispute, Dr. HarCs assertion as lon,
as the sewage goes into the river anc
finds It's way into the lake. This i

some light on the origin Of many of
the Superstitions connected with

come down to us from the historic
shades of the past.
"Romans, Greeks, Egyptians, Arabs,
Babylonians, Hebrews, all aCknowl-

symbols, and believed themselves to
be protected by them. Bible and
Talmud, Kabala, Koran and the
Gnostic writings furnished texts and
symbols for inscriptions on stone and

same, although their publication be-
came less and less comprehensive.

Greeks, and Amazons, and Centaurs,
and the exploits of Hercules and

common among Christians that in
the fourth century the clergy were

them on pain of deprivation of holy

was solemnly prohibited by the

1.-THE Pantheon and Its Paintings,
by Louis NJ. Pounceforte, in Home
and Country Magazine for June, is
an article of unprecedented interest,
since it wildly portrays the manner
in which the vicissitudeS of fortune
attendant upon the disturbed state
of affairs in France during its differ
ent revolutions affected the welfare
of the public buildings containing its
art treasures. Tossed like shuttle
cock from sacred to secular influence.
it would seem to illustrate in
measure the vacillating character of
tle French nation. The bas-reliefs
and paintings ornamenting the
Pantheon are as diverse in their ma
ture as the ever-changing uses to
which this remarkable structure has
been adapted. Some of the most dis
tinguished French artists are here
represented.
Erected upon the site of Saint
Genevieye's tomb and from designs
by Soutflot, the foundation stone of
this edifce was laid by Louis XIV. in
1864. Originally designed for
church and consecrated to Saint
Geneyieye, the patron saint of Paris,
it was not until 1871 that
it was secularized as a memorial
temple dedicated Aux grands hon.
mes la patrie reconnaissance. In
1906 it was reconsecrated, but the
revolution of July, 1880, was re-
sponsible for its being used once
more as the resting place for the re-.
mains of the great men of France
Again in 1851 this magnificent pile
was used as place of worship, and it
was not until the death of Victor
Hugo that it was dedicated, let us
hope permanently, TO the great men
of grateful country
