One Town Winch Finds the Evening
 Heg a success

Elmira ts trying the virtue Of q cur few ordinance. Its express purpose tg to keep out of the streets the Children who have been permitted to frequent them fn the evening without restraint heretofore. says the Elmira Advertiser. It takes effect at 3 o'clock in the sum mer and at 8 o'clock during the Bin= ter. The effect of the fnle has been watched with interest, and no one can doubt that the new rule will be as faithfully enforced hereafter as t has been during the first week Only one arrest has been made. but that was sufficient to show the intention of the police department to enforce the ordi nance in fair and reasonable man ner. According to all the testimony at hand 1t aeeomplishes the purpose for which it was passed Children, and young girls in particular, are no long CT seen promenading the streets in groups or singly, and the gain for or der is plainly noticeable. There is q disposition shown in the press of other cities to poke fun at the course zpur- sued here, but our eitizens care nothing for that They are trying honestly an experiment from which much good is hoped. and their expectations have met no dlsappointments up to today. Instead of laughing at our village similarly afflicted communities would do well to adopt the same course of treatment for what is everywhere ae= knowledged to be a serious evil If large numbers of the young can be kept out of temptation and from evil courses by so simple a device, 1t is far wiser to try it than to jeer at it. It is not a laughing matter at all, but one of grave moment to the welfare of nearly all large towns. Our e1peri- ment is worthy of general imitation, for it is a great success in it's begia7 hing.

 Liquor at a lime.
 How can the elegant bars of the city afford to place before their patrons | better grade Of liquor while charging the same price as the saloons ia the poorer districts? is 3 question frequent iy asked. The answer is simple enough. h the former drinkers never take 3 bath as the saying is, but merely cover the bottoms Of their glasses with liquor. while ia the latter the glasses gre none tee large to contain the amount the Hatrons require. If you can tell ne how many drinks a bar gets out of gallon of whisky" said veteran Of the white apron the other day, T will tell you relatively where Ris saloon is located and what kind of trade it enjoys. The average for a business in the commercial and office center is from sixty to sixty-fYe If t is patfenized to any extent by the upper working classes, skilled mechan= tes, and so on, the percentage runs down to fifty. A fellow who wasn't posted might suppose that indicated Werkingmen were heavy drinkers, but lt's just the reverse. The average up per class mechanic drinks very sell dom. but when he does he generally takes a good one. The heavy tippleFs are the chaps who take small drinks and =12ts of them, and house that has very swell custom will get from eighty to eighty-dye oat of a gallon. In the tough places and dives forty would be about the figure, which rep fesents an average Of exactly four ffths of a gill to each customer In such establishments the glasses are often very thick and the inside is round Oh the bottom They are deceptive and even if filled to the brim will not hold over one-half Of a gill, which would make sixty=four drinks to the gallon. At only five cents apiece that would mean $3.20, and as the stuff they serve does not cost more than s1 the profit is shade over 200 per cent. which ought to satisfy even a dive keeper. If a fve-cent house set out thin glasses with the black bottle it would be bankrupt in less than 3 week.

PRESERVING AFRICAN BIG GAME
British Government Will Protect the
 Fauna of Africa.


 Fauna of Africa.
 With reference to the international action which the government has ln view for the preservation of the big fauna of Africa, I have had the oppor- tunity of hearing the opinion of one of the greatest living authorities on the subject This individual has passed the greater part of his life in the dis triets of Africa affected by the legisla- tion in force and prospective for pro- hibiting the killing of big game. He as- sures me that all the laws in operation fail to achieve the purpose in view in the localities where the natives are al- lowed to carry guns. Tn British East Africa. where the whites are strictly forbidden to shoot big game without authority, the natives are allowed to kill indiscriminately and without check everything they come across. In Mashonaland and Matabeleland. on the other hand, since the disarmament of the natives there has been a pereep- tible increase il. certain species and this increase is likely to gradually be- come more marked as time goes on and the regulations are enforced. Antelope of different kinds have lately been seen in the neighborheod oE Balawayo. which it had been thought had com pleteiy disappeared from the country and there is reason to believe chat ill Rhodesia the danger of extinction of many of the species, which at one time was real, had been checked if not alto- gether averted.- Birmingham Post.

 A Rare Find,

4 rare find in the shape Of moa's egg has been made in a mining dis tr9ct in Central Otago There was a fall Of earth in a dredging claim. and presently the huge egg was seen float ing uninjured in the water. The dis coyery is the more interesting from the fact that this is the second perfect moa's egg that has ever been found. The only other perfect specimen was unearthed by a man while digging i'll the allnvial sol at the Kaikoura noun tains in the early sixties. This egg which was nine inches in length and seven inches in breadth, was taken to England and sold for 100 guineas. Some Idea of the size of these eggs may Dc gleaned from the fact that q mans hat makes an excellent egg-cup for them.

Clayton Crews Sentenced.

On Tuesday Judge Sauter of Grafton,
sitting in place Of Judge Winchester
came up to hear the motion for a new
trial and in arrest of judgment in the
case of the state against Clayton Crews.
The motion of defendant for a new trial
was not considered, objec-
ton being made by the States Attorney
that the application had not been made
and filed within the time prescribed by
law, which view was taken by the Judge.
In passing sentence Judge Sauter re-
marked that he regretted that he could
not impose a heavier sentence. He
stated however that it was no the jury's
fault o the states attorneys fault but
was the oversight of the Court in not
specifying in the jury's verdict the
character Of the felony they found him
guilty of. In view of that oversight he
thought the law would onlyjustify ajudg-
ment such as he was about to impose.
He then sentenced Crews to thirty days
confinement in the county Jail and in adj
dition to pay a fine Of One Hundred
Dollars. If Crews fails to pay the fine
he will be compelled to pass 50 additional
days in Jail. The case is n that has
been pending long time but the result
will be such as to defer others from shoot
ing On the street.

OUR JAWS NEED EXERCISE.

Lack Of Mastication Causes Dyspep-
sin and Teeth Troubles.
Mastioation is rapidly becoming a lost
art, and, although we have become
hardened to the fact that three.fourths
Of the dyspepsia is due to this cause, 1t
might surprise some Of us to know that
the early decay Of the teeth and diseases
Of the gums are ocoasioned by this same
lack Of maxillary exercise.
A disease of the gums, called Riggs
disease, which is every day becoming
more common, is caused almost entirely
by the want of proper mastication.
twenty-five years ago this trouble was
not considered Of any Importance by
the dentist on account of its rare occur.
renee.
Today it is given more care than the
decay Of the teeth, as he is frequently
consulted by patients who have a full
sst of natural teeth which are quite loose
in the jaw. Aside from this they are
sound and healthy, and after a certain
development In the disease nothing can
be done to help them.
By lack Of exercise the blood which
should nourish both the bones and the
gums is not carried to the part, nor does
the blood carry sufficient material to the
teeth; hence the enamel formed is de-
fective, and early: decay results. Free
quently, too, the mechanical develop.
ment Of the jaw is arrested by this same
want Of motion.
Most Of the food among the better
class Of people today is cooked 20 as to
require very little mastioation, and the
consequence is that the muscles have
become fabby, the jaws slender and the
processes for the attachment Of the
muscles almost obliterated. Boston
