| The Board of Aldermen did it's full
duty last evening in the flagpole mat
ter 1t passed a resolution for the in
sertion of a new fagpole in the band
stand, and it also passed a resolution
providing for a flagpole on the City
Hail. This is all right Two fagpoles
are better than one, provided they are
both in the right places. A fagpole on
the City Hail will be properly situated
and new tiagpole through the band
stand will be most fifty placed The
Aldermen have correctly interpreted
public opinion about the fiagpoe on the
Green. New Haven is a little uncer-
tain about some things, but she Is en-
tirely certain that she has been greatly
cheered and inspired by the sight of
the Star Spangled Banner floating over
her beautiful and historic Green, and
she wants a continuance of the cheer
and the inspiration. The Councilmen
will probably agree with the Aldermen
and with unmistakable public senti-
ment and soon we shall again see the
finest sight that New Haven has seen.
Until then let us seek to avoid compli
cations about the hand-stan

BICYCLE EIREIIEN-

An interesting and important resolu-
ton was introduced in the Board of AL
dermen last evening by Alderman At
water. 1t looks to the appointment of
some bicycle firemen," whose business
it will be to get to a fire before others
of the department can get there with
their machines. We think the idea is a
good one. Much can often be done in
the first few minutes of a fire and &C.
casionally life or lives can be saved
The bicycle with proper handling, and
footing, Is a convenient and speedy We
hcle. 1t is useful in police work, and
there is good reason to believe that it
can be made useful in dealing with
fires. The matter will be thoroughly
discussed before actionis taken, and un-
less there are objections to bicycle fire.

PLANT COLORS AND FRUIT
FORMS.

| Prof Wiley Tells Why Grass is Green
| and Roses Red, Why Autumn Leaves
Change and Why Fruits are Rounded
| asked Prof Wiley, the we'll known
chemist of the department of agricul-
ture, some time ago why grass was
green, instead of red or blue.
"The green color of grass" he re-
piled 'is due to a substance known to
chemists and botanists as chlorophyll,
the word coming from two Greek words
meaning green leaf Formerly ii was
supposed iron had q great deal. to do
with coloring the chlorophyll, but the
green coloring matter itself does not
contain any iron, although iron is an
important ingredient in the proper de-
velopment of plants. The red and yell
low colors of leaves and flowers are pro-
duced by oxidations of the chlorophyll
When this change has gone to the yell
low stage the substance is known as
xanthaphyll. When it hae gone to the
red stage it is called erythrophyll All
the changing colors of the leaves in the
spring and autumn are due to the pres
ence of these same coloring matters in
different degrees OF oxidation.
1.-THE coloring cell is the most import
ant part of the plant from a biological
point of view" continued Prof. Wiley
TT is not generally known that plants
take nearly all their nourshment from
the air What plant gets from the air
and from the water which ii abstracts
from the soil forms about IS per cent of
its total weight in dry state. 1t is in the

ing matter is found that these raw ma

woody fiber of plants, all the starch and
sugar they contain, are made in the
cells by condensation of car
bonic acid and water. 1t is thus seen
that the business of the chlorophyll cell
is not only to beautify and adorn them
with attractive colors, but it has a prac-

DIRT FUEL.

If we can burn dirt we shall not neet
to worry about the exhaustion of the
coal supply Mr. Montag of Mannheim
Germany, has taken out patents in sew
enteen countries on his method of pro-
ducing artificial coal, which he says
is cheaper and better than ordinary coal
We are told that his new fuel ID COM
posed of 81. "a per cent. of ordinary earth
and to s per cent. of chemical ngred-
tents, and is cheaper and better than
coal Any piece of land, even if unfit
for agriculture, can be used to produce
this fuel The cost Of the necessary
plant is only $3,750. This German in
ventor claims that from the point Of
view of hygiene his artificial coal is
preferable to ordinary COAL as it does
not develop poisonous gases, creates but
little SCOT, and leaves no slate and but
a small amount of ash, the latter re-
sembling wood or cigar ash; further,
there is no danger of explosion or con-

character of the fruit produced is con-
troled by the original germ in the tip of
the bud of the graft, and it lasts as
long as the branch grows, and that is
indefinitely"
why are apples and peaches round?"
Fruit is formed by the natural laws
of physics in such way as to produce
the least resistance to the surroundings,
and for that reason the natural shape
of fruit Is round. 1t would be entirely
so if the pressure was removed and the
force of gravity suspended. Chicago

THE MULTIPLE DOLL1P.

The multiple dollar is the latest II
is said to be the invention of ex-Mayor
Wrinn, of Maiden, Massachusetts,, and
to find favor in Populist circles. Mr..
Wrinn explains that the dollar ought to
be as "invariable measure of the val
ue of commodities as the yardstick is
of dimension" so that it will be con-
slant and trustworthy for long peri
Cd of years. In order to obtain such
a standard he would take, "say hun
bred staple commodities determine
what average amount Of them the
dollar would buy" and call this aver
age par Then when it Is found that
the dollar buys more than par or less
ume should be expanded or contracted.
A commission would be required to
watch the market and prepare tables Of
prices and percentages upon the basis
of which the money volume would be
changed Mr.. Wrinn sententiously re-
marks that there are various modes of
expansion and contraction, but the only
one which he mentions is ito sell call
bonds to contract and call them TO ex-
pand."
The multiple dollar is interesting, but
what we really need and want is a null
tiplied dollar.

C. w. Houston, Boston electrician,
has some very decided opinions about
what electrolysis is going to do to the
gas and water pipes in the streets of
cities. He says: "Electrolysts is play
ing high jinks with the iron pipes in al
the big cities, and in few years from
now the water pipes will become so
weak that they will burst every time
anv pressure is put on them on account
of being eorroded by the action of the
powerful currents" Mr. Houston adds
that glass pipes will have to be used,
that they are rendering good service al
ready in many streets in Europe and in
this country, that within five years SO
many of the existing iron pipes will be
ruined that the change will be inevita-
HE and that within few years more
glass will be the only material used for
high-pressure pipes underground.

Supreme court that he must pay his
wife's dressmaker for making a silk
dress, for which he insisted his wife
alone was liable, on the ground that he
provided his wife with a weekly allow
ance, besides paying the household ex-
penses. The presiding justice said that,
notwithstanding the statutes which al

tracts, etc., as if she were unmarried,
the husband was liable for such articles
as she might purchase for herself, if
they were suitable to her station and
her husbands means, and if he made

the chief resort Of well-to-do bachelors
