They can take a car in front of their own
doors aud In very few minutes will be
at the market. The samo facility OF
reaching home after having made their
purchases will be afforded them, and that
is an important point. Indeed. it is a
vital point, for you can't have ntral
market that will be OF service to the peo-
pie unless you have also facilities for
taking them 10 and from it. The fscili-
Tie ties In the Inc, way OF transportation
got also, and now the only thing that
remains Is for the city To take advan-
tage OF its opportunities. / know there
Is objection to putting a big building
over.the water between Crawford street
and Market square. The objectors saw
that such thing will destroy a breathing
place for the people. How many people
go down there TO breathe? Not one except
hoboes, and they DON'T count. The same
argument was made against the filing of
the Cove and yet l haven't heard that
there has been any serious results from
the filling up of that cesspool. / am con-
vincod that instead OF preventing the
erection OF buildings over the river above
Crawford street The city ought to cover
over the river from Fox Point up. When
1t does that, the coal wharves and steam
boat cocks will be moved lower down and
we Will then begin to have harbor that
will be something like what Providence
ought TO have"
The recent discussion of the adyisabiIity
OF introducing military drill into the
public schools makes interesting n state
nment OF how small European repu bile
deals with such matter. Switzerland
manages TO keep up an effective army Of
nearly l4O, 600 men Mt a very slight cost OF
money and time. The Swiss school bows
are trained In gymnastics, in the manual
OF arms, and in the elements of company
drill The state encourages target shoot
ing societies, of which there are 2g77.
with membership OF 1873, 500, by sub
vention of nearly 500, 900 year, the re-
suit being that almost every Swiss can
handle q rifle. The soldiers serve 10
years, between the ages of 22 and 81.
being called out for drfll on as days in
tho FIRST year and 10 days In every subse-
quent year. Each man keeps his inform.
rifle, and knapsack at home, and is
responsible for their being kept in good
order, strict inspection being held in
each district yearly. Consequently each
soldier costs switzerland S35 a year, in.
stead of the $3.50 that is paid by England,
the S225 by France and Germany, and
the S110 by.Russia. The Swiss Landwehr,
the men between 81 and "A years, first
organized In 1876, numbers $1,000 men,
and the Landsturm. the final reserve OF
all men capable of bearing arms, is
reckoned at 270,000.

beacon light, pointing the way to health
and safety. Truly, it is not what we

THE TRANSFER MATTER.
Discussed at Public Hearing Given In
City Hall, Last Evening.


City Hall, Last Evening.
public hearing was given in the
Common Council chamber last evening
on the proposed transfer system. 1t was
really little more than conference be-
tween the joint special committee OF the
City Council and the railroad officials, for
outside the rail there were Just seven per-
sons. The Mayor was present, as was
Amasa Eaton. Chairman West asked
Senator Alcrlch, president OF the Union
Raiload Company, several pertinent ques-
tioDs. and Architect Alfred Stone was
present with sketch and plan for
an attractive transfer station. Moth
ing especially now was brought
out. Senator Aldrich said that
after examining the principal sys-
TENS In the country the company
concluded that central transfer station,
proposed main building will he 42x11O
feet. 1t Will cost about 100000. 1t is
proposed TO apply the transfers only
within the city limits.
Commissioners Smith sent in communi-
cation estimating the annual expenditure
for five years, on account OF new paving
and other work required, at from $1,000 to
$40, 600.
Il. J. Mccarthy discussed the chances
for either the violation OF faith by the
Tramway Company, thereby entangling
the Union Railroad Company by refusing
TO grant transfers, ana of the city teing
held liable for damages by granting sites
for sub-stations.

Views Of an Advocate of
a Central Market.
Are Sound on Some Things
and Radical On Others.
A Radical Proposition to Cover Up
the Upper Part of the River.

There is one man at least who has not
lost his interest in the central or public
market scheme. The Gossiper met him
this morning and he had much to say
about the project. Indeed, some OF his
sayings were in a mild degree sensation
nj, particularly the one in which he ad-
vccates the bridging over of the river

am satisfied that all claims made for II
are deserved. / countedanearly two hun
dred teams, most of them those OF farm
ers who had come into the city TO dispose
of their products. That is pretty good
indication that the market center of
Providence is between Crawford street
bridge and Market square. Then there
Is another advantage OF such a location
which to my mind makes Ii an ideal one,
and that is that 1t is OF easy access from
all pats OF the city.
