FIREMEN DISCOUNT SOLDIERS.
There Is n Paid Force of 81. 1000 and
~ 100000 Volunteers in the
~ United States.

There are more firemen in the United
States than there are soldiers in Uncle
Sans army, says the New York Sun.
In New York city, for fire purposes,
the two boroughs of Manhattan and
the Bronx, with 1,40O fremen, are
Joined. The two boroughs of Brooklyn
and Queens, with 1000 paid and 1900
volunteer firemen, are joined, and
Richmond, with LOO firemen, is sep
arately organized There are there
fore in this city G,100 tiremen, paid and
unpaid.
There are 1900 firemen in Chicago,
800 in Philadelphia, 700 in Boston, 400
in Baltimore, 500 in Buffalo, $50 in De-
troit, 500 in St. Louis, 400 in Pittsburgh,
43O in San Francisco, 300 in New Or
leans and $50 in Washington.
In the whole country there are G., 600
paid firemen, and the number of voun-
teer firemen varies from 100000 to
10000.
There is saying among firemen that
three volunteers are equivalent only
to one regular, so great is the value of
training and discipline. Thus a city
like Wilmington, Del. with a popula-
tion of 10000, has more volunteer fire
men than Philadelphia, with a popula-
tion of 100000, which has paid fire

BUREAU OF STANDARDIZATION
In which Absolute Accuracy Of
weights and Measures WILL
he striven For.

A million and quarter of dollars
has been recently appropriated for
the establishment of national bu-
reau of standards for this govern
ment, and the work of designing a
remarkable building for this new
new feature of the government SER
vice will be commenced at once, says
the Patent -,ecord of Washington.
This is marvellous structure. 1t
will be place where the noises and
vibrations of the outside world will
not be admitted under any pretense
and an absolute unvarying tempera-
ture will prevail. 1t will be erected
on a site to be selected some dis
tance from the city, where there will
be the least possibility of the dis
turbing influences from the outside
world, and on lot large enough
to prevent the possibility of any
other building within a distance of
a quarter of a mile. There will be
double walls, each on separate
foundation resting on the solid rocl:.
The building, which will contain the
power plduJ necessary IOT ihS ODSld-
ton of this novel department, will
be located at least thousand yards
away. All these precautions are
taken in the battle with the vulgar
influences of the outside world.
Many of the instruments will be
placed so that it is impossible for any
one to approach them within dis
tance of 20 or 30 feet. This
is to prevent the temperature of
human body from affecting their
delicate constitution. Tne windows
will be fitted so that it will be
readily possible to make the rooms
absolutely dark, even on the bright
est days. No particle of sunshine will
penetrate the shutters.
There will be maintained in this
building standard of all measures
of capacity and distance. Among
other things the new" department
will establish a standard electric cell
measuring standard volts and ample
means of testing all thermometers.

THE NOISE HABIT.
Becomes Necessary Dissipation to
the Nervous DvelIer in
Large City.

The New Yorker in time contracts
what may be called the noise habit.
Noise with him becomes a dissipation.
His nervous system demands it, says
Munsey's Magazine. This is illustrated
by the sensations and experiences
when he goes into the woods or noun
tains after a continuous stay in the
city for many months. His first feel
ing is one of loneliness: something
seems to have suddenly gone out of his
life. Every tree seems to say: "Why
have you been so hot and noisy. nv
little sir?" His sensations are some
what akin to those of a drunkard who
has been under alcoholic stimulation
for long time, and suddenly has his
drink taken from him. His whole
nervous system feels the lack of the
irritation of the city noise, to which he
has become accustomed. The still
ness actually appals and depresses
him.
The streets of New York are deep.
narrow channels, and they are grow
ing constantly deeper, as the buildings
increase in height. These large re-
fiecting surfaces on three sides of him
make the condition of the man in the
street like that of the workman who
suffers from reflected noise while he
hammers rivets on the inside of a
boiler.

CAPTAIN OF AN OCEAN LINER.
That Official Nowadays Is Vastly Diff
ferent from the OId-Time
"Sea Dog"

Nowadays the captain is the host of
the ship. He is no longer the gruff,
rough sea dog in pea jacket of years
gone by, says Capt. Jameson, of the St.
Paul, in Golfers Weekly. He must
observe some of the social amenities.
He must talk TO the passengers now
and then, when the weather is fine.
He must take his seat at table when
he may. He must be kind of diplo-
mat also, and possess wit and tact, and
a patience sublime. He must see that
no jealousies develop among the pas
sengers. ! have been told of the very
obliging captain who to please the
lady who asked to be shown the
equator while the ship was in south
ern seas pasted hair across the large
end of a spyglass and told the lady to
look. And the lady, through the gass,
declared she could see the equator ''as
plainly a \, b, c." One other polite
captain i have heard of-one who di-
rected an officer on the bridge to "do
as the lady Wishes" when the lady re-
quested. that the captain steer the ship
over to the horizon to see what the
horizon was like.

WONDERFUL ICE CAVES.
One of Them Near Flagstaff, Arizona,
Supplying Ice for Sum-
mer Use.

Several years ago a man who was
wandering over the lava fields in the
pine woods, nine miles from Flagstaff,
discovered a narrow slit in the lava
which appeared to lead into a lateral
and much larger opening. The slit
was wide enough for man to squeeze
his way into it. At the bottom, about
20 feet from the surface, low cham
ber opened on one side which was
found to extend about 300 feet. AT the
further end the roof was high enough
for a man to stand erect. 1t was in
the month of August; large bank of
ice was heaped against the farther
wall, but the rest of the cavern
seemed to be dry.
In the following March the cave was
visited again and found to be as full
of ice as it could hold. 1t is now
source of ice supply for the hot months
of summer, says the New York Sun,
The ice melts away as the summer ad-
vances, but early in the season there is
a large amount, most of which is now
utilized. The ice is split into large
pieces, hauled to the surface with
block and tackle and carried away by
the CARLOAD.
In this hollow under the ground the
cold air settles in the winter months,
producing temperatures below the
freezing point. There are times dur
ing the winter when good deal of wa
ter runs into the cave. This is frozen
solid and as water continues to flow
in it is added to the frozen mass until
the cave is completely filed with ice.

Momen conslnercd .pnor pnr ;,

Tradespeople in general consider
women as poor pay" writes Edward
Box in Ladies' Home Journal. The
vast majority of sheltered women
seem to have no conception of the
anXieties, trouble, poverty, suffering,
privation, injustice and positive cruel
ty which they directly inhict upon
hardworking women by a careless
ness in promptly meeting their bills.
If this practice were. confined to the
few one might dismiss it with a
snrug or a sigh that it existed at all
But it applies to the majority of
women. Let a woman look into this
matter carefully, and she will be sur
prised at the evils which result from
this careless disregard of obligations.
Wherever you find a feminine indus
try there you will find ledger full
of unpaid accounts.

| A mixture OF the domestic question
with the schools and politics is pre-
sented in Chicago, where the Board Of
Education has madea an order that cook
ing and sewing schools be dropped
from the public schools after this year.
One mother of five girls writes to the
papers to declare that the teaching in
these domestic sciences has been Of
more real use to the girls and thel,'
families than all the other merely meL-
tai branches. She urges the m Jthers
of Chicago to rise en- masse and protest
against the elimination of the one nrac-
ticai branch la ght to girls in tie pub
lie schools.
There is no doubt that if all the
mothers of Chicago unite in demand
ing that the cooking schools be kept
up, they will be kept up. There is also
little doubt that instruction which, as
this correspondent asserts, enabled
girl in the grammar school to do her
own sewing and the cooking for the
family is highly useful. But that does
not avoid the question why the girls
cannot be taught these useful occupa-
tions at home. A mother who is
tainly teach the household arts to her
tainl teach the household arts to her
daughter better than teacher who has
teach the pupils in blocks of twenty or
thirty.
People not much past middle age can
remember when every American moth
er taught her daughters to sew and
cook before they reached the grammar
school stage. Despite the Chicago in
timation that if the girls are not |
taught these things at school they will |
never learn them. we believe there are
still families in which the old-fashion-
ed instruction is kept up. Concerning
the daughters of those families no com
ment is more pertinent than Rip Van
Wrinkles ejaculation, What wives they
would make!"-Pittsburg Dispatch.

SOCIAL ENc1NEERrNc.
Mow an Exaensive TreRch Hiining
Company Looks AfterIts Irtn-
pIOyes' welfare.

In Cassier's Magazine appears an
entertaining article on the indus
trial betterment of workingmen by
DIR. w. H. Tolman. Speaking of the
policy of the French Mining company
at Amin, which was a pioneer in this
movement, the writer says:
ITO help its employees save money
the company established, in 1869, a
department for deposits, in which the
workmen could make deposits up to
1000 francs, on which the interest al
lowed was at per cent. The COM
pany no longer encouraged these de-
posits in its own department aftei
the creation of the postal savings
banks, since these give the workers
every facility and every guarantee
for banking their savings.
"A cooperative society was found
ed in 1865 on the initiative of the
company. In addition to food stuffs
of all kinds, which are bought in
bulk, this society had it's own bak-
cries, dairies, butcher shops and wine
cellars. All sorts of household uten-.
Sis, clothing, ana, IN iact, all artlcles
for which a demand exists, are sup
piled. The company itself buys from
the cooperative stores soaps, brushes,
pals and other small supplies for
factory and office use. The society
has its own chemists, who analyze
all the food stuffs and test the mer-
chandise, so that the members are
protected in having the purest sup
plies and standard products at the
lowest market rates.
To-day the stores are absolutely
with 10 branch estab-
lishments and force of nearly 100
of their own employees. The present
of cooperators is 5,642. The
sales in 1899 reached 3,934,611 francs,
with a net profit of 744,471 francs to
be divided among the cooperators."

SLANG FROM THE BENCH.
An Australian Jurist Is Betrayed In
to the Use of Prize Ring
Expression.

Even jurists are not exempt from
the prevailing custom of using slang
in expressing their sentiments. Quite
recently Sir John Madden, the chief
justice and lieutenant governor of Vic
toria, New South Wales, angry at the
absence of all the barristers in a libel
case that was down for hearing. char
acterized the proceeding as a fake"
This is piece of pugilistic slang and
is understood to mean make believe
fight, both boxers having previously
agreed as o the final issue. Next morn
ing the three leading barristers con-
cerned appeared in court, explained
their absence and Indignantly repudi-
ated any idea of flake" The chief
justice then apologized, expressing his
regret that he had permitted himself
to use such a word, and adding that The
bar would understand how such ex-
pressions sometimes slipped out with
out due regard to the surrounding cir
cumstances. A bland assurance of his
belief that the parties in the case were
animated by the "fullest litigant ami
mostly" raised laugh and agreeably
closed the incident.

Carried OFF the Mugs.

At the recent Commers, at Bonn, in
honor of the German crown prince,
at which the kaiser was present, an
unpleasant incident arose. The guests
thought that the beer mugs were
keepsakes, and carried off $50 of them.
The 'Borussia" corps, which acted as
host, instead of settling for the mugs,
asked the guests who carried them
away either to return them OF to send
80 cents to the proprietor of the res
taurant where the Commers was held.

ADVANTAGES OF THE DOCTOR.
Me In Not Under Restraints such as
Those by which Preachers
II Are EnvirOned.

Physicians, like clergymen, are con-
cerned in trying to make their fellow
men better, but they have great ad-
vantage over the clerical brethren in
being able to shape their lives accord
ing to their whims and necessities
without undue criticism from their fell
lows. We prefer that our doctors
should be good men. We insist that
they shall have high degree of pro-
fessional honor. We expect them not
to he unduly mercenary, and not ITO
grudge fair measure of their time to
the public service. But we don't con-
cern ourselves about what they eat, or
drink, or smoke, or how they choose to
have their share of fun, says writer in
Harper's Weekly. We don't even insist
that they shall practice what. they
preach, and we should be disappointed
if we did, for, though doctors spend
their lives in efforts to induce people
to take care of their health, it is unusu-
al for busy doctor to take even ordi-
nary care of himself. His sleep is
broken, his meals are irregular, he
overworks himself; very likely he
smokes too much. But as long as our
confidence in his skill is unimpaired
we don't criticise him.
Doctors are supposed to know what
is good for themselves, and in their
hands we leave the responsibility for
their cases as well as for ours. TO be
sure, we scoff great deal at the med
ical profession, carp at it's contradic-
tions and remark upon its limitations,
but in the long run the good doctors
get the credit that is their due, even
though its arrears may not come in un-
til after they are dead
