these truths struck home, and the tide
has turned, or at least Is turning. The |
prejudice for mere youth dies hard, but |
1t Is dying. We may even see the day |
when middle age, with its experiences, |
and old age. with Its freedom from pre-. |
judlces. will be even more highly ap-
preciated In New York than In London,
and American society will be young

a report to the State Department
from Consul General GOOdnOw mt
Shanghai brings some interesting facts
as to the manufacture and trade In that
peculiarly Chinese pest, the tirecracker.
During the year ending June 30, 1897,
there We're exported from China 26,-
7O5, 733 pounds of them, valued at ST.
5Si, ,15l In gold, and of the total ship
ment by far the largest part came to
this country. n small quantity went to
England ana infinitesimal amounts to
other countries, from which 1t would
appear that In the matter of noise and
nuisance the United States has not ad-
vanced beyond the standard of China.
The amount exported does not begin
to represent the extent of the industry,
as millions of them are made In shops
and small houses, and fOur-ffths of the
crackers consumed In China are made
by the families of those who sell them,
these people of course receiving no
wages. Crackermaklng Is about the
cheapest form Of industry, from every
point of view. At Canton the ordinary
size cracker costs ! tael (G2 cents for
10000 for export. The hours of labor
are from q a. IN. to II p. m, and there
are seven working days In week.
Thirty women and ten men can make
100000 crackers day, for which work
the women receive five and the men
about seven cents each. An expert at

the trade cannot get more than ten
cents. which Is about the average rate
of wages paid In China for common In.
bOr. The most alarming feature of
Consul GoOdnow's report Is the fact
that the giant cracker may be re.en.
forced In the near future by new pro.
duct Of Chinese skill known rs the
"twlce sounding"
1t has been said that the loss Of life
and property by war Is n lesser evil
than the attendant or resultant damage
done to the quality of whole peoples

that the orderly life of millions of peo.
pie should be interrupted; that thought
and feeling should be turned away from
ordinary business, common duty and
the gentle methods of culture; that the
aimlcss expenditure Of nervous energy
and the rush Of blood to the head
should cause IN epidemic Of moral In.
sanity. Whatever happens or does not
happen. our people should keep cool In
these cventful war days. 10 the sol.

people, until recently, worshiped the

quette holds. and should hold, a large
place In the social relations Of men and
women. 1t Is the boor who enters or
leaves a room first, instead of following
a lady. an older person, or one whose
position commands respect. outward
politeness may not be half as impOr-
tant as politencss of the heart, but the
truly polite person observes all the rules
of etiquette as soon as he knows them,
and the observance of them sweetens
human intercourse. In the affair Just
mentioned, both the gentlemen did pre-.
cisely what they should have done. SO
long as there was a question as to the
proprieties Of the case, they avoided
meetings where the question might
arise. When 1t was decided. they each
accepted the situation, like the gentle.

trict Control.
Speaking OF the matter of cleaning the
streets OF the city by hand. Mr. Warner
Stutler, the superintendent of street clean
ing. stated to a Star reporter today that he
has engaged a force of thirty-eight men to
clean daily the 1000 square yards under
what will be known as schedule 1, being the
territory west of 18th street west. Under
schedule of the hand-cieaning work, an
area of 10000 square yards east of 18th
street west, will be cleaned by the con-
tractors, Messrs. Daggett & Dugan. The
rest of the city will be cleaned, as hereto
fore, by the machines. an area Of 100000
square yards.
although" said Mr. Stutler, "the 800 600
square yards under schedule l will be
cleaned by employees Of the District. after
the 1st of July by men who, too, will be
paid $1.25 day, Is cents more a day than
is paid by the contractors, yet the District
will be able to do that work at a cost of
about 20 cents per 1000 square yards, while
the District is now paying. under its con-
tract with Messrs. Daggett & Dugan, 81
cents per 900 square yards for hand work.
and 25% cents per 900 square yards for
machine work. II there could be any
stronger argument in favor of the PROPOSE
ton of The Star that all OF this work
should be done by the District, am unable
find it.
The contracts with Messrs. Daggett &
Duean run until July 1, 1899 and as Con-
gress has been fully informed Of the great
saving which could be made should the
District do the work. there is little. IL any,
doubt that after that date the District will
have charge of IL. But, not only can this
great saving to the District and to the
United States. fer the general government
pays one-half Of the cost, be secured, but
men can at the same time be given better
pay That the hand-cieaning system is
productive OF cleaner streets has. l am
quite sure, been fully demonstrated. The
Districts force OF men will be attired in
blue jeans trousers. white coats and gray
linen crush hats, at cost to them OF but
so 80. while the suits worn by the contrac-
tors hand cleaners cost the men $50"
