a WAR AGAINST SMOKE.
st. Louis Grapplins with the smoke
Nuisance--A New Bridge Across
the MississiprL

ST. LOUIS, Feb. ei.-In group OF
business men smoking cigars after din
ner at the Mercantile club the other
afternoon, the statement was made by
a manufacturer that the city would
spend fully quarter Of a million dol
lars in testing preventing de-
vices this year. He meant, of course,
the manufacturers of the city who have
joined the club which intends to clear
the air Of the smoke. This club got up
the bills organizing the city crusade
against the smoke nuisance, which the
Mayor has just signed. The laws es
tablish a bureau with inspectors, whose
duty it is to prosecute those who will
not use smoke preventing devices ON
their furnaces. A popularity of the
law that distinguishes 1t from those
proposed in other cities is that any in
ventor can have his device tested and
its merit decided upon by board of
experts paid by the city. The club
hopes to rid the city of half of its smoke
cloud by the beginning of summer.
Ever since the Merchants bridge
was completed 1t has been seen that
st. Louis would have to have another
one to cross the Mississippi for the
special use of foot passengers and
vehicles. The Eads bridge built up
East St. Louis, and the Merchants
bridge made Madison and Venice grow
into fourishing tows. The people OF
these two towns cannot get to St.
Louis on foot or by vehicles. They
must use the regular trains of the Mer-
chants Terminal Company, or wait for
slow ferry-boats. They want bridge
over which electric cars can run, and
people can walk. The bill now before
Congress provides for this kind Of a
bridge, which is to be built by st.
Louis men at cost of about $500, 900.
Mayor Noonan has just signed q bill
that will give st. Louis another cleo
trio street railway before the crowds
begin to fill the city for the
Fall Festivities. The road will
run along Grand Avenue, one
Of the widest and most important resi-
dence throughfares Of the city. twill
enable one to ride from the cemeteries,
to the Grand Avenue viaduct, and
across that to Tower Grove Park. The
road will cost half million dollars,
and will be built entirely by st. Louis
capital.
The st. Louis Turner societies are
noted all over the United States for Their
gymnasts. There are six turn halls in
the city, and the membership of the
societies is over 10000. About five
hundred of the best of these gymnasts
are being drilled for exhibitions at the
Worlds Fair. The corps will include
all the young athletes who participate
in the events on the Turner nights at
the st. Louis exposition, and there will
be besides, specially drilled body of
a hundred men or SO who are known
among the Turner's everywhere
as prize-winners in the national
competitions. The corps will go to the
Worlds Fair prepared to issue and re-
ceive challenges for all sorts of feats of
strength and skill, and they hope to
engage in competition with Turner's
from Germany.

The discovery Of America 400 years
age was not nearly SO costly IN under
taking ss is the celebration Of that event
now. Seme one has figured the expense
Of the provisions. stores. guns, carried
by Columbus with the salaries paid to
himself and crew. and the sum is ridic-
ulOusly small. Altogether it amounts to
only 81 SEQ. Columbus had naturally
the highest salary Of any one in the ex-
petition. bu, figured in modern isoney it
was only $500 year. The captains Of
each ship received 1912 each. and the
surgeon only S3S IS. while the seamen
shipped for less than $50 year. The
purchasing power Of money was greater
10 those days than now especially Of
labor.
The greatest difficulty Columbus ex-
perlenced was in searching vessels to
make the voyage. But as the vessels
came bask their expense need not be
reckoned. To find new world for less
than $4,000 was perhaps the largest
honest increase man ever made from SO
small an investment. But it must be re-
membered that this new world thus dis
covered remained of very little use to
humanity for more than a century after
Columbus died. He apparently did not
know what it was good for. and not till
men came later With desires to bless
humanity did the great Significance of
this discovery appear.
