From the New York Press.
The jag Cars" begin running in
Sixth avenue az 2 o'clock in the morn
ing. and in Broadway a little later,
These are closed vehicles, with en-
trance and exit by means Of the rear
platform. The company soon learned,
after omen cars were put on at the
beginning OF summer, that nearly ali
accidents occurring IN the early hours
were due TO drunken passengers en.
deavoring TO get on and on the the
guar ded seats. II being manifestly i'm
possible for the conductor TO patrol
the footboard in away TO protect all the
cross seats, the management wisely le-
stored tho closed cars. His royal jag
lets cannot now get on OF off without
the conductors knowledge and assist
an,e + the latter be needed. The
sober and helated citizens VINO rail
against closed cars should yield a
point in favor Of their less fortunate
brethren, also belated but not sober.
The Jag Car is wise provision.

Solicitor Reinhardt will this even
ing inform Council whether, in his
orinion. the Water Commission ex-
ceeded It's authority in purchasing the
Weldin farm, as site for the new
reservoir. without being disposed TO
prejudge the matter, we are sure the
only reasonable construction that can
be placed upon the law, Is that the
Commissioners were clearly within
their rights. If they have no right to
purchase and hold real estate outside
Of the corporate limits. then they had
a. we'll 80 out Of business. 1t would
be an anomaly. indeed. to compel those
in charge OF the water supply Of any
city TO operate only within the mu.
niclpality. since this would mean that
both the source of supply, and all
means CT its distribution would have
to he within the city lines. But the
law seems perfectly clear: 1t gives the
Commission the right to take water al
any point from the Brandywine, and
further allows it to purchase and hold
real estate, and places no restriction
thereon
There Is a possible valid objection
TO paying such q price for the parlicu-
lar purpose. since 1t is claimed that
there are other sites equally desirable
that would have cost less money, and
that .art Of the same tract could
have been purchased for a reasonable
amount, thus giving ample land FOR
the purpose and leaving a surplus fol

mission. and we think it should

Upon the general objection that th'
contemplated improvement is not nee

WAYFARER'S NOTEBOOK
Men As Ihex Pass


Pennock Pusey, Ct this city, who has
been passing a few days in Kennett, be-
came acquainted with that borough
in the early anti-slavery times In
company with his brother-in-la Isaac
Flint. he walked from Wilmington to
old Kennett to hear anti-slavery ad-
dresses by Abby Kelly and Stephen
Foster After the meeting lie went fer
the night TO the hospltable home Of
John and Hannah Cox. and that was
his first meeting with Jacob r. Cox and
the beginning OF a warm friendship
that was only severed by death. On
the following morning the Wilmington
ians returned home by the stage line
that piled between Kennett Square and
this city. That was the beginning of
many visits TO Kennett by Mr.. Pusey
and his friends Soon afterward Bay
ard Taylor returned home from his rO-
mantle journey through Europe and
his book was published He was at
once the idol Of his young friends. and
the Wilmington set who had been
drawn TO the community by the anti
slavery sentiment and by the intellec-
tual stimulus they found there became
more than ever attracted They speed
lily became the friends of Mary Agnew
and entered with great interest into
the love affairs of the young poet and
traveller. Life was very full in those
days" said Mr.. Pusey with a sigh, in
recalling long past incidents. and his
recollections agree with those of many
others that in that day the intellectual
and social life of Kennett made the
community ideal. Then was formed
the strong bond between a certain set
in Wilmington and Kennett that has
been maintained for more than fifty
years. though many of the original
participants in the early scenes have
passed away.

Ialk About Germ Killers

From an expert and good authority
on antlseptics the Wayfarer has OBJ
tained the following interview.
There is a fa'lacy which deserves
mention. There exists substances
which are called 'antiseptics.' a term
that implies the prevention of decay.
We may arrest decay or putrefaction
without Of necessity killing the mi
crobes TO the action Of which that pro-
ess is due. A few drops of solution Of
Capbclic acid added to -four paste will
keep it sweet for a certain time. not
because the germs in the paste are de-
stroyed. but because these germs are
inhibited for the time being in their
growth and multiplication, and be-
cause the paste is rendered temporarily
an unsuitable soil for the growth Of
whatever microbes may fall into It
from the air When the effect of the
acid has worn of and disappeared we
see the paste going to the bad as rapid
ly as If it had not been treated anti
septically, at all. Molds will grow in
II and 1t will decay in the fashion
familiar to everybody 1t is in this
way cold may act as an antiscptic when
it iG used to preserve meat and FISH.
] here Is no destruction. but only arrest
lcf germ life. Many substances used
by the pubic as germ killers are only
lantiseptics. If we wish to kill mi
crobes, therefore. we have TO use not
only a disinfectant, but we have to en-
Iploy it in proper proportions. and to
sec that it thoroughly attacks the
germs we wish to destroy. It is for this
teason that all attempts TO kill germs
have not been successful"

III UAh NUN hInANA sAAfNA AAHNAt
II is an old snarl of the contemners
OF education that very often education
only makes smart rascals. There Is
some truth in that snarl. as there IS apt
to be in any pessimistic talk. On the
whole. education does immeasurably
more good than harm; but incidentally
and exceptionally It does harm. The
remark applies to physical as we'll az

tor fact. we cite the very recent in

was not stationary. and carried it away
