NAY INSPECT SALOON HOTELS.
sIONER LEDERLE THAT THEY ARE
UNDER HIS SANITARY JURISDICTION.

Corporation Counsel Rives has advised Com
missioner Lederle OF the Board Of Health that
the sanitary jurisdiction Of his department may
be properly extended TO saloon hotels as IL IS at
present exercised over lodging houses. Or. Led
erie some time ago took the attitude that the
Raines law hotels should be subject to the
sanitary law as lodging houses were Under
this decision, il is said Ralnes law hotels viii
have TO take out permits as lodging houses do.
Commissioner LedcrIe assumes that the Ralnes
law hotels. not being subject TO rigid inspec-
ton by the State Excise Department. do not in
variably fulfil the requirements regarding the
size Of rooms, ventilation. hrepToodug and
plumbing. Under the opinion Of MI Rives ne
VIII take the necessary action TO compe! proprie-
tors OF Raines law hotels to get the proper per
naits from the Health Department Mr. Rives
says in his opinion:
Whether or not the buildings specified may
properly be regarded as hotels under the defini-
ton Of the Liquor Tax law is immaterial. Even
assuming that they conform in all respects 10
the provisions of the Liquor Tax law, they can
at the same time be regarded lodging houses
The definition of lodging house under Section
1905 of the Charter is, in my opinion, broad
enough to embrace the buildings des rbed.
Section 100 is as follows: "A lodging house
shall be taken to mean and include any house
or building portion thereof in which persons
are harbored or received lodged for hire, for
q single night or for less than week at one
time or any part OF which is let for any per
son to sleep in for any time less than a week"
Commissioner Lederle said yesterday that at
the time of the smallpox epidemic a number
of lodging house dwellers moved into Raines
would remove themselves from the Jurisdiction
OF the Department of Health.

Washington, Aug 1.-THE Commissioner OF Pen
Eions said to-day that an erroneous impression

regarding the Interpretation of the recent act Of
Congress relieving Union soldiers Of disabilities for
having previously served In the Confederate army.
The idea seems prevail that under this act the
soldiers, and the result is that the Pension Office
is being deIuged with applications from former
Wearers Of the ray. The commissioner explained
that the law in question does not contemplate the
pensoning of ez-Confederate soldiers, but de-
signed solely TO remove the disability which long
existed IN the cese Of who were impressed into

cAn1FoRsrA UT SHIPMENTS

There is JOY in California over the
fact that the fruit shippers of that
State have gained an important point
in their general complaint made to the
Interstate Commerce commission
against the transcontinental railroads
The shippers have contended that they
possess the right to name the routes
their goods shall be shipped over,
Since January 1, 1900, the railroad COM
panies have refused to recognize this
right, and shipped fruit over such
routes as suited their own purposes,
This practice, it is claimed, has caused
heavy losses to the fruit growers, as
perishable goods were often shipped
over circuitous routes and subjected to
unnecessary delay in reaching their
destinations. The decision of the In
terstate Commerce commission touch
ing this matter is: 1--WE conclude that
the practice of defendant carriers in
denying to shippers the use of their
transportation facilities by established
routes is unreasonable, unjust, wrong
fully prejudcial and unlawful"
If this means that there will be fresh
er fruit in the East there is reason for
joy in this region. as well as in Califor-
mia

is now smaller than that of Baltimore,

co, Liverpool, Manchester Edinburgh,
Barcelona, Madrid, and many other
what efficient sanitary work is being
done there under Major w. c. Gorgas.
Having got yellow fever, formerly the
great scourge of Havana, under, an
attack is now being made on tubercu-
losis. A dispensary has been establish
ed, arranged in an attractive manner
and attended by an able corps of physi-
clans. where the municipal poor are in
vited to apply for assistance. Medical
inspectors who dwell very extensively
upon the subject of tuberculosis, are
Systematically sent to tenement houses
and tobacco manufactures. The great
object has been to get the cases of
tuberculosis located, and through the
various measures used there are now
about $500 cases on the lists. These
names are carded, with residence and
other data, and popular literature sent
to them, explaining their disease, its
communicating, and the best manner
of care. Major Gorgas believes that
if the system can be continued for four
or five years tuberculosis can be Grad
icated as yellow fever has been.
1t will be decidedly interesting to see
how this we'll planned campaign against
tuberculosis works. II it succeeds it
will be a most valuable object lesson
for other communities.

our natural and praiseworthy desire
to advance the education of women we
have been neglecting to a certain eX-
tent that of the men. We ought not to
have done less for the women. but we
should have done far more for the
men.
1t seems to be true that life in the
co-educational institutions is not al
ways one grand, sweet song, as 1t ought
to be, and as it is in colleges for women
alone. Perhaps it will ultimately be
plain that young men and young
women can get better educations in sep
arate schools, and that it is enough to
ask them to use their learning together
after they are married.

CO. EDUCATION.

DR.. Edmund j. James, the new presi-
dent Of Northwestern University, isn't
sure that co-education is what it has
been cracked up to be by its advocates.
He grants that the theory that women
are not capable of doing college work
has been shown in practice to be ut
terly false. He admits as well that the
old assumption that free association of
the sexes lowers the moral tone of an
institution of higher learning has been
completely contradicted by facts, which
demonstrate that advanced schools of
this kind are morally higher in tone
than the community at large and sure
~ on par with colleges for one sex
alone. But. on the other hand says
DIR. James, one hears oftener the claim
that the increasing number of women
tends to feminine the Institutions where
they are, in some cases to such an ex-
tent as to discourage the attendance of
men. 1t is urged with increasing per-
sistence that the social distractions and
designations, with their widening inva-
sion of the sacred purpose that should
go with school life, form a serious
problem, while Others emphasize the
fact that the broad difference in the
future careers of the two sexes should
find more adequate recognition in the
college curricula. The fact is that in

Ruba,ya, Of the GA Red Moving Van


Look at the moving vans about us-Lo
The whole world seems to be upon the go;
We leave the little ills we have and move
To larger woes whereof we do not know.
The splendid hopes we set our hearts upon
Turn ashes when we settle down anon,
And having tackled our carpets fast we sit
Regretting the good things from which
we've cone
The neighbors that we left were not our
style;
We dian't like the noise they made, but III
Bet forty dollars the new neighbors, too,
VIII make us weary in little while
Alike for those who move to-day to where
High walls of masonry loom in the air
And those who go to humble quarters-all
Must eat cold grub and sleep where floors
are bare.
What by the brawny teamster hurried
whence?
Our goods jammed in the van and hurried
There's many an earnest protest an
swered by
The big administered movers insoence.
For | remember stopping by the way
TO watch fool let tall a cut glass tray.
And as | poured my feelings out to him
He murmured Gently, brother, gently,
pray"
And has not such story from of old
Down mans successive generations rolled!
We pitch our tents and then pull up again
And move to where new beauties may I'M
fold.
A little halt, little peace of mind,
And then we push along again to find
New sappointments-thu through life
we move
And leave our streaks of rubbish stretched
behind

Petroleum briquettes for fuel are a
French invention, the secret of which,
SO far, has been carefully guarded. All
Z that is known is that, as the name
implies this new fuel Is chiefly made
of petroleum, solidified under enormous
pressure. Some of the advantages are
said to be: They weigh one-half as
much as coal; leave but trace of
residue; do not melt, run, explode, or
absorb moisture; keep their qualities
for any length Of time; produce twice
as much heat as coal; can be used in
any furnace, and are easily handled.
A boat using this fuel can get up
steam in one-fourth or one-third the
time required by coal, and would show
no smokea great point in naval mat
tiers.
