held the professionals down to one run
for seven innings.
Stanley, for Raleigh, pitched a good
game and it looked as if it would be a

Sentelle was above the average, and

pitched the game of the season. This
Is his first game and judging from his
coolness and delivery he is ''as Kelley
said,'' a good pitcher, or the fault is in
the slick work of Raleigh, and they must
improve or hunt for a comfortable place

season is under way. The features were

AUSTRIA'S CANAL SCHEMES.

- ONSUL GENERAL HURST of Vienna has
{ furnished to the State Department an inter
: - estlng report upon the grand scheme of canal
construction which has been undertaken by the Aus
trlan Government for the double purpose of mprov-
ing the commercial facilities of the different parts of
the empire and of holding it together as political
unity. In its entirety the plan is larger than any
other designed for canal work in Europe, and when
completed will provide Austria with system of in
terna waterways that will prove of immense advan-
tage to her people.
The measure recently enacted by the Government
provides for-G a canal from the Danube to the
River Oder; (2) canal from the Danube to the
Maldau, Budweis, and the improvement of that
river to fit it for canal boats from Budweis to
Prague; CD canal from the Danube Oder canal to
the Upper Elbe and the Improvement of the E1be as
far as Menik; CD canal from the Danube Oder
canal to the Visula and to some navigable portion of
the Dniester
In the aggregate the canals will open upward
OF 1854 miles OF navgable waterways and it is esti-
mated the cost will be about $I52ooo The money
is to be provided by the cooperation of the prov
nceS districts and cities that are to be mainly bene-
flied with the Government. The work of construc-
ton is to begin later than 1904 and is to be so
calculated that the whole system will be completed
date use the Government is to issue per cent tax
tree, bonds redeemable within ninety years.
1t is stated by the Consul that although the topo-
graphical features of the country will render the work
OF construction difficult, and the severe winters will
close the canals for considerable time each year.
the system will be of ncacuable benefit to the whole
country and will connect Austria more closely with
Germany and with Russia. 1t is said that only
will the cost OF freghts from the German seaports be
appreciably less, but many portions of the interior
practically inaccessible to extensive trade can
then be successfully developed
The undertaking of an enterprise OF such impor-
tance and of such undoubted benefits to the people
will of go far toward relieving the discomfort
of the people. There will be employment at good
wages for thousands of men, and the money put into
circulation will increase trade and activity The
scheme is therefore exhibition of high order of
statecraft the part of the Austrian Ministry 1t is
better to put end to discomfort by furnishing
work and wages than to try to suppress it by the
despotism of the sword.

WATER AND TYPHOID.

VETE E recently quoted from a Philadelphia
NV paper in relation to the prevalence of ty-
phoid in that city, due the water supply.
The Examiner retorted statistcaly in vindcation OF
the purity of water effected simply by change from
private to public ownership. We have no doubt that
the public water Of Chicago Philadelphia, New York
and Boston saves many lives in the manner that
lives are saved by brass pns-by not swallowing
them - Within the last eight months the New York
Journal published accounts of the filthy condition of
the Croton water, and showed how fortunes were
made by peddng spring water in that city for drink
ing purposes at high price per bucket 1t is
usual for the Journal and Examiner sing one tune
in the spring and another in the fall
We have pointed out the neglect of cities which
own their water supply to purify it, and have
shown the power OF cities to compel the publication
OF supply in private ownership.
The death rate in San Francisco is given at 236
per thousand. We suffer in the statistics from the
location of the city and its being the last refuge of
large number of sojourners who come here stricken
and die 1t is to be regretted that such cases are not
segregated from the deaths OF resident and per-
manent population. But New York, that is not
sought health resort has death rate of 286 and
Boston of 248, Washington OF 258, and Philadelphia
of 22.6 Eliminating the deaths of sojourners, there
is doubt that the rate per 1000 OF Our resident
population is less than the lowest
The assumption that mere public ownership of
water supply makes potable is borne out by the
facts since its potabity depends upon the vigilance
with which its purity IS preserved and there is no
evidence that this will be any greater under rnuni-
cpal ownership Indeed the presumption is the
other way, unless municipal government can be in
fased with different spirit and greater fidelity to
the trust imposed upon it We desire merely to curb
the enthusiasm of the advocates of municipal pater
nasm by bringing them down to consider that every
large city rises between elections to complain of the
bad state OF its Streets cutters, and all other
things that the objects of municipal care and
administration If the New York Journal bugs
in Croton water and declare that it smells to heaven
compelling the purchase and of spring water to
avoid fatal results, and the Examiner see in mun-
clpal ownership water purified, glorifed and made
perfect and potable there is jog in the testimony
that makes thinking people pause and consider.

CHINESE EXCLUSION.

~ NE of the notable phases of drift Of public
sentiment at present is the increasing favor
~ with which a considerable number of influen-
tial people in the East regard the possibility OF an
unrestricted Chinese immigration to this country.
1t required prolonged and often excited cam
paign OF education TO convince Eastern people years
ago that Chinese immigration would be curse, and
now the moment the processes OF education have
ceased they seem to have reapsed into their former
condition Of ignorance indifference.
In discussing the question the New York Times
recently said: "The initiative in the opposition to
the continuance of the restrictions imposed
comes naturally from the Chinese, but if the reports
which reach us are correct the movement is gaining
strength among Eastern and Southern Congress
men, many Of whom are reaching the conclusion
that there are large areas of the United States where
an important increase Of cheap labor would be ad
vantageous. The interest in continuing the present
stringent law is confined largely to the Pacific Coast
and whether is there strong the leaders OF the
labor organizations would have believe is ques
ton which it is difficult to without more in
innate knowledge OF public opinion this subject
than can be gained from the newspapers OF the Cali
fornia cities"
If Eastern people do not believe that the white peo
pie of the Pacific Coast are universally agreed in
favor of Chinese exclusion they are the victims of
immigration from China will be made not only by
labor leaders and the newspapers Of California cities,
but by we'll nigh every fighting force among the
people
1t appears the fight will have to be made with the
utmost energy, for the danger is seemingly much
greater than Californians expected. The Times says
in the South there is demand for Chinese labor to
supplant the negro, ard of the East it says: fThe
general feeling to be that the Chinese as we
know them are peaceable, industrious race who
trouble nobody and if not molested by hoboes and
Hooligans mind their business and fill very
useful place The excitement of twenty years ago
ever the inundaton of this country by a tidal wave
of Monaghan immigration has completely subsidized
and it would be impossible to revive il"
If such statements represent Eastern sentiment we
may well get ready for hard contest this winter.
The work of educating the East must begin all
again. Evidently Minister WI has been saving wood
while we were asleep, and it looks if he had
the exclusion law very nearly beaten

-" DITH PRESTON and Willard
- Drown are engaged. Handsome
Edith told her happy secret TO her
A~ friends, who went down to con-
gratulate her sister Norma yester-
day afternoon. Although all of us were
unprepared for the splendid news, none Of
US were astonished. Previous tC Miss
Preston's departure for Europe L was
among the many who asked her if she
was engaged to Willard Drown, and l was
also among the select majority TO whom
Miss Preston declared there is not one
word of truth in it.
However, it is out now, and we are all
delighted There is any amount of nice
things to be said of the happy young
couple. Willard Drown is son Of A. N.
Drown and a member Of the law firm of
Drown, Leicester & Drown. He is Yale
man, and equally popular in profess
sional as in social circles.
Edith Preston is one of the handSomest
of the many beautiful girls of the young
er set She is the daughter of E. f. Pres
ton, the well-known attorney, and Mr..
Preston is not little proud of the fact
that his charming daughter is the image
of her dad. Miss Preston, however, has
more than her beauty to recommend her.
She is charming, accomplished and has
unusual tact While the wedding of Miss
will take place in the very near future,
it will be some time before Edith Preston
becomes Mrs. Willard Drown.
About thirty young people went down
to the Palace to congratulate the Preston
girls yesterday afternoon. The rooms
were just a bower of roses, the kind re-
membranes of many admiring friends.
Assisting Mrs. Preston and the Misses
Preston to receive were Miss Ruth Nc
Mutt, Miss Bessie Ames, Miss Mary Den
man and Mrs. Ben Lathrop.
Miss Edith Preston was stunning in a
magnificent white Grape gown elaborately
trimmed with lace. Miss Norma Preston
