Keeping Deriin's Streets Clean.

From city Government in the United States"
The cost of cleaning the streets of the
large European cities should interest the

appropriation is S$550,00O The principal
streets are cleaned on Sundays well as
on weekdays The sweepers work from IL
am. to pm. in summer, and from am.
to dark about p.m.) in winter. The city
furnishes overaHH, consisting of a blue
jacket, white trousers and cap. With re-
gard to this part of municipal work,
simple and suggestive matter presents it
self to the Berlin visitor He cannot fail
to observe that the scavengerS are clad in
overalls, which give them tidy appear
ance and prevents their ordinary clothes
from being soiled. With an official cap on
his head and belt round his waist, the
Berlin scavenger feels that he is a public
servant The municipality claims no cred
1t for providing this dress. On economical
grounds alone such expenditure Is fully
justified. and it is an example of cleanli-
ness set to the community. Our average
street sweeper carries to his home the dust
and dirt of the whole day, and dirt makes
dirt as is shown in the houses of the poor.
The Berlin scavenger on reaching home
removes his canvas overalls flor his ordi-
nary clothes are not soiled by his days
work., washes his face, neck and hands,
and then is ready to enjoy his firesIde or
go with his wife and child to some neigh

ICE CREAM SODA IN LONDON.
It Was Introduced Only Recently,
but 1t Has Become a erase Already.

HI
but 1t Has Become a Crase Already.
From the New York Sun.
THE Ice cream soda craze, which Amer
lean women have had 50 badly for the
past few years, has broken out In Lon
don," said a traveller recently returned
from abroad. 1T hasn't got firm clutch
on the English women yet, but II Is grow
ing rapidly. and I expect that In the
course of a few years 1t will materially aid
in the disappearance of the beautiful Eng
lish complexion for which women OF the
old country are famous. An American
confectioner is responsible for the produc-
ton Of ice cream soda In London. Before
he settled In a place in Upper Regent
street the deadly mixture was practically
unknown in that great city. The few Eng
lish women who had been to this country
and tasted it here of course knew what It
was, and they lost no time In patronizing
the confectioner.
THE great mass Of women, however.
looked aghast at the combination of straw
berry strip, live soda water and ice cream
Those who got Up enough courage to tackle
1t were not sorry that they had done So
and the result was that II soon became
necessary for other confectioners In the
neighborhood to get soda fountains and
learn how to mix the drink In order to hold
their trade. There are now half a dozen
or more places in London where Ice cream
soda is sold, and all day the fountains are
surrounded by women. The scene reminds
one very much of any one of our own up
town confectionery shops on a hot after
noon. 1 expect 1t will not be very long
before the English women will become as
devout worshipers at the Ice cream soda
shrine as are our American women at the
present day. Heretofore the chief diver
sion of the English woman out shopping
has been to eat ices and cake or drink
4ha lotA hlit II or ha n
pearance of this fashion in a very short
time. Ice cream soda has never failed to
get a deadly clutch on the women of any
country where it has settled, and 1t will be
funny IL 1t does not make a complete con-
quest of the Londoners."

they would race next year the same as
they had in the past, and take the conse-

firmed, but among the prominent sporting
men up town at midnight the story was
believed.

LATE SPORTING NEWS
FOOT BALL HERE AND ABROAD.

An EnRlishman Who Was Disgusted
With the American Game.
The Buffalo Times remarks regarding the
roughness OF foot ball: when the game
has been made perfectly safe and harm
less then the interest IN 1t will be gone
also, and the college world and the world
at large will be the worse for the loss"
In contradiction to this, an English news
paper man who recently saw game OF
college foot ball in this country comments
as follows: II saw a match between Har-
ward University and Dartmouth. 1t was
the American Rugby game. 1t was brutal
and cowardly, and l felt q little ashamed
that the game, as l saw 1t played at Har-
vard, should be regarded as In many re-
spects fairly representing English sport.
Yet the Times says that 1t Is from such
brutal and cowardly" play that the Eng
lish acquire pluck" This Englishman
says: ION the whole, American foot ball
was not a credit to any Of those concerned.
and, although had the opportunity OF see
ing 1t under the best of conditions, felt
disguised with the exhibition. Brute force
was accepted as a substitute for skill and
science and there was little, IL any, real
sporting spirit shown by the players"
AS to the claim that with less danger
in the game there would be less interest 1t
can be said that outside of the four big
games in this country every year no such
crowds attend the games in this country as
In England
