MIDwINTER LUXURIEs.
Public Baths for the Masses Discussed
Again--A Few Hints.

Speaking OF the public baths, The
American Architect and building News
OF Feb. 20 has this to say:
"Boston. in quiet way, has already
made an experiment which has been
much discussed put not actually dupli-
Gated, in New York in the esta blish-
ment of public baths for us in winter as
well as summer. In the warm season the
floating baths, for which toston affords
excellent facilities, are very much used
and undoubtedly contribute great deal
TO tie health of the city, but baths for
the winter are comparatively expensive
luxury. However, the city maintains In
its Charlesbank Park gymnasium
which is open all the year round and this
winter the facilities which 1t affords have
been utilized to furnish regular baths.
The public in the neighborhood of the
park, which IS occupied by very
modest class Of citizens, have gladly
availed themselves of the new opportuni-
ty Tor winter bathing and IL Is intended
TO repeat the experiment another year.
The same paper thinks that the cause of
improving the condition of the poor will
be best served, however,. by keeping pub
lie bathhouses ana public washhouses, or
laundries, apart. The cost of using the
public tubs at nine cents for three hours,
as in London, would do good deal to-
ward paying the rent of wash tubs at
home. Whatever may be good for others
the cardinal principle to be kept in mind
in guiding the development of American
life Is TO promote the comfort and attrac-
tiveness Of home.
The American Public Health Associa-
tion reports also go into the public bath
question and endorse the public rain
baths. These baths are simply arranged,
built in the most economical, yet su bstap-
tial manner, and divided into spaces just
large enough for an ad dlt to stand and
move comfortably in. The bather soaps
himself and turns on the cold or warm
water, which falls upon him as spray
douche. Time, consumption of water
and attendance are reduced to a mini
mum, cleanliness is subserved and danger
of contagion entirely obviated.
The matter of public natatorium for
Providence has already passed the Board
OF Aldermen and public hearing will
soon be held. 1t seems to he the general
impression that two or three bath houses
distributed about the city would be rrefer-
able to one large one, which might not
be easily accessible TO all. DIR. Chaplin is
heartily In favor of the rain or shower
bath. Francis Gallagher Is looking up
facts and figures to present at the hearing.

dullness, approaching to stagnation,
prices were not, on the whole. easier.

Moderation.

Many who are not Republicans are
about ready to vote the Republican
ticket. They should not be discouraged

should be welcomed as generously as
they come. aud nil who stand upon the
platform Of good government. honest
money, the preservation OF the nations

and IA sound social order should stand
together like band of brothers. The
st. Louis convention made the way
eas.er for Democrats to vote the Re
publican ticket this year on the financial
issues by the moderation of the tariff
plank which explicitly states that the
party is not committed to any special
schedule of tariff rates. but only to a
policy that will promote American in
terests. No matter Ehat may be any
mans theory regarding the tariff, he
ought 90 be able to subscribe TO the

which President Cleveland and large
section of the Democratic party repu-
diate ought to be remedied, so as to raise
sufficient revenue as will enable the

We trust that in their enthusiasm

for president, the Republicans OF Holt

selection OF Federal judges with ref

use OF the process of injunction to pre-

to coufiecation. They believe that every

right to run it for him. They are op-
