Floating Baths.
From the Chicago Tribune.

In 1866 Boston expended $4,000 for fit
ting up one bathing beach and building fivo
floating baths. For open-air bathing that
city now has not only six bathing beaches,
two river baths and two swimming pools
but it also has thirteen floating baths. In
addition Boston has for indoor bathing the
finest shower bathhouse in the country and
two baths connected with outdoor and two
others with indoor gymnasiums. About
100000 baths are taken annually in all
these various places. New York, although
possessing but one public indoor BATH has
long maintained free floating baths on the
ing. There are fifteen Of these for the
boroughs Of Manhattan and the Bronx
and five for Brooklyn. It Is said that
100000 baths are taken in these during
the summer.
Chicago now has four all-year-round
baths, and at two pumping stations bath
ing is provided for. In these six places
$3.50 baths were taken In 1900. Aside
from the excellent natatorium and outdoor
gymnasium at Douglas Park, however this
city has no public provision. save the ex-
temporized beaches just now being opened
by private generosity. for open air bath
ing. It is safe TO say that the city will
not much longer continue in its present
restitution Of facilities for such bathing,
and floating baths will likely come in to
supply the need in part. Such baths can
be built for from So 900 to Sc, 600 each, and
they could perhaps be used at certain points
on the South branch of the river, as well
as on the lake front. The river ought In
time to be clear enough in the heart OF the
city for bathing, and in so far as this con-
dition shall be realized floating baths
would be as practicable as they would be
admirably located along its banks. In this
connection 1t Is Of interest to note that
Boston has shower baths, both for boys
and for girls. in one Of its newer school
buildings in q working class district, and
that similar equipment is to be seen in
one Of the school buildings just recently
opened In New York. Moreover. after sew
eral years Of experience in their use the
teachers in the Boston school allege that
these baths-to which the children are sent
in relays according to a schedule which
recurs every few days-make both for bod
lily and mental IMMIGRATION. =

HAZARDOUS OCCUPATIONS.
Why Men Flock to the Railroads fox

Why Men Flock to the HaIlrOaOs Tor
Employment.
"There Is a fascination about railroad
ing which makes the waiting list of ap-
plicants long one. and verifies the known
fact that where one man Is killed there
are a dozen others eager for his place."
said a railroad official to a Star reporter
this morning.
.tOur men are employed by the different
division superintendent. On our road I
should say that for every vacancy there
are ten applicants on the list. to say moth
ing Of those who would be glad to accept
the place IL they knew Of it or it were
offered to them. I am not referring to
clerical positions, but to those Of train
men.
There are several considerations which
prompt men to so readily accept positions
on railroads which are hazardous to life
and health. Men must have employment.
Most Of our employees are married men.
and the necessity to provide food and shell
ter for the family will cause men to take
places they know to be dangerous. and
which they otherwise would decline.
"But the great, main reason why rail-
roads have so many applications for these
places is because their lines penetrate the
rural districts, and pass through small

THE CIRCUIT BILLS Up AGAIN.

Although General W. ". Grout will
not be in congress the coming session
his able. fight for the suppression of
oleomargarinel manufacture will go
on. Senator ,Spooner of Wisconsin
will take it up in the'senate and push
for recognition OF. the Importance of
this measure.
The interest in the bill is not con-
fined to the east. All through the
west, even IN California, where there
is said to be no oleomargarine prob
lem, the dairymen are on the alert.
AT Dubuque, Iowa, this week, General
Grout speaks by special invitation at
a grand rally of dairymen and con-
sumers gathering for the express pur-
pose of discussing the Grout bill.
Hon. JamesrTawney OF Minnesota and
Hon. James II. Davidson of Wiscon-
sin are also to be on the platform.
4 glance over the recent issues of
The Chicago Dairyl Produce, semi
weekly butter paper, shows that
throughout the west the Grout bill
and what it stands for is "a general
topic at farmers and !dairYmen's
meetings. Colorado's dairy commits
sioner, T. L. ,,Monson, has issued an
official report OF the work done dur
ing the year. against the insidious
substitute of oleomargaripe for the
real thing.
The fight Will go on and it is hoped
another year will see no such figures
as the following:
"The oleomargarine manufacturers
of the United States produced TO-,
263,6 pounds of oleomargarine for
the year endingi June. 80, 1900. This
would fill 5,212 refrigerator cars of
10000 pounds each. These cars would
make go trains.of 20 cars each and
would occupy, with their engines,
50 p, miles of track, allowing SO feet
for each car. In so pound tubs the
make of oleomargarine the past year
aggregates ,, OS3, 3,243, an increase of
475 tubs over.the previous year"
Here's to the Grout bill, hoping its
resurrection.in December will create
the same warm sympathy it found in
the house last session, as shown in its
passing by a..vote OF 19S to 90, and
touch the hearts, of the senate in
like manner. 1T is time to let Your
congressman know your feelings
about this matter-don't hang back.

A New Industry.

The latest industry to become in
corporated under the laws Of Vermont
is the Green Mountain Belgian Hare
Company of West Waterford, which
was recently incorporated with an
authorized capital of $1,000. This
company will raise and sell pure bred
Belgian hares for breeding stock,
pets, or meat. This promises to be a
very profitable business even when
only meat stock is raised, but as yet
the demand for fine breeding stock is
all the breeders can supply.
