conductor could eorroborate this. He had opened the ventiIator in the door of a car which was so hot and smelly it was almost impossible to breathe. On his next round a man asked him to close it, as he thought he felt draught. The conductor mumbled something, closed the opening, and the passengers continued to take turns at the air bot tied up in the car. The man who had felt the draught" was thin and sallOw, either consumptive or dyspeptic, and more in need of fresh air than perhaps any one else in the car. A young wo- man is quoted as saying that of all the advantages men enjoy over women the one she envies them the most is the privilege of riding on a car platform especially if that car contains, as it ire quently does, an individual who has been making a round of visits to vari- ous liquid dispensaries and has aecu- mulated a list of odors which defies de- scription.

BODY BROUGHT HERE.

The body of Charles Colleton, the Roaring Brook laborer, whose death occurred at the camp in the mountain last Wednesday night, from injuries received in a manner unknown, was brought to New Haven Sunday night on the 7:07 train, by order of Coroner Mix of New Haven county, who de- clined to order an autopsy upon the ground that an autopsy was not war ranted by the evidence. The body was turned over to the Yale Medical school. Selectman Lewis of Southington reports that Colleton has a wife in Hartford, who, when informed that her husband was dying, sent back word that he might die for all she cared.

FOOTBALL DISASTERS.
List of Fatalities and Injuries So Far
 This Season.

List of Fatalities and Injuries So Far This Season. ] As a result of injuries sustained by payers in football teams, this season, several of the minor schools and col l leges in various parts of the country
 have foarbidden the playing of foot ball by students. In two towns the au-
 thorities have put ban on the fame, 1 In Columbus Junction, Penn., the teams l in the town have been disbanded by the town authorities as the result of peti-
 tions by the players parents. In
 Greenfield, Ohio, action was taken by the council, and an ordinance passed
 prohibiting the game within the town l limits.

The list of injuries is necessarily in- complete. It is stated that five stu dents of Carroll college, in Waukesha, were injured within ten days. None of the large colleges or universi- ties has taken a hostile stand against football as yet, and it is not likely that 8 general movement in this direction will take place. It is to be noticed, however, that in the smaller schools and towns there is more feeling this
 year against the game than there has been in any season heretofore.

the University of Arizona connects the rest of the world, and pole-line across the desert and over the mountain car ries electric light and power from Tue son to the laboratory building. The lights at the laboratory on the distant mountain can be seen froma Tucson at night, and in the daytime the vaquero who ride the range can see the building on the mountain for great distance, and he marVels at this achievement, for he cannot understand its purpose.
 Beyond the new laboratory stretches the Great American Desert, and under heath the mountain lies the famed for est of cactus. a fitting field for the ex- periments which will be conducted heret. The mountain and desert fur nish every exposure of hill and plain. and nearly every desert growth known to science is to be found on the ground selected for the experiments. Through the chamber of commerce of Tucson the Carnegie Institute has secured from the government eight hundred and for ty acres of land surrounding the labo- ratory building. This was the first real SSt0SO SO DC eI4ulACh ny kAS 'SS~AAAN3AS Institution. This large tract has been fenced off from the desert, and will be used solely for the culture and study of desert plants found within it's limits. While the work of the laboratory is to be purely technical, with little economic bearing, one of the experiments will be an attempt to develop a thornless cac- tus, an accomplishment which would be of inestimable value to the live stock in- terests of the arid regions.
 Dr. W. A. Cannon, of the New York Botanical Gardens, has been appointed the first director of the laboratory, and has just taken charge. He and his as- sistants will work in connection with the botanical department of the Uni versity of Arizona, which has the finest collection of living and mounted plants west of Mississippi. In connection with the laboratory and the University of Arizona the Santa Rita forest reserve, containing one hundred thousand acres, has just been established by the depart ment of agriculture for experimenting in desert grasses. The first report of the desert, botanical laboratory will shortly be issued. It was prepared by the advisory board, and will be the first report of any character to be issued by the Carnegie Institution. t.. The desert laboratory is itself an ex- pertinent. The Carnegie Institution has appropriated forty thousand dollars for its maintenance, and the director and his assistants have been appointed for term of five years. If at the end of that time it is found that the exper- 1 iments have been a success, and its dis ! ceveries have added greatly to the knowledge which science has of the desert fora, 1t will be continued as a permanent institution. The reports of the laboratory will go all over the cili- lized world, and the experiment is being watched with interest by scientific men everywhere. While the government goes on with it's work of retaining the desert by irrigation the desert labora- tory will experiment. with the desert ffo- ra, attempting to convert to practical use the growth of cactus and grasses which cover the arid regions.-Leslie's WpnlxIy Fl s H@ --.

ties, as such, have no control over the
 Boston police.
 In short, the shame of this raid is brought right home to the chairman of
 the board of police who directed the use
 of his subordinates in the affair. This
 so-called arrest of three hundred Chi
 namen in Boston," says the reporter of
 the Eliot clubs committee, was as ille-
 gal and unauthorized as a raid by ban ditti. Practically, and probably legally,
 the attack upon the Chinese by the po-
 lice was an act of mob violence. The
 persons who authorized it really insti- gated a riot. Nothing could be more
 absolutely destructive of respect for law than its disregard by those whose duty it is to enforce law. We cannot expect foreigners coming to our shores, whether permitted or not to become cit- i izens, to become imbued with respect

A DESERT LABORATORY.
Built With the Dollars os the Star
 Spangled Seotchman.

Built With the Dollars os the Star
 Spangled Scotchman.
 A novel venture in the realms of sci ence is the desert botanical laboratory recently established just west os Tue son, Ariz., by the Carnegie Institute of Washington. More interesting even than the novelty of the laboratory are the obstacles which have been over come to build it on spot best adapted for carrying out the purposes for which it was founded.
 The idea of a desert botanical labora- tory was first conceived and launched at the last meeting of the American As sociation for the Advancement of Sci ence It was immediately taken up by the trustees of the Carnegie Institute as one of their ventures and Dr. D. T. McDougall, of the New York Botanical Gardens, and Professor F. V. Coville, of the department of agriculture, were appointed an advisory board to visit the arid regions of the United States and se- lect a location After Investigating many places in the west they finally de-
 
 west of Tucson as affording the best ad- vantages for the work. In less than six months what seemed at first insur- mountahe obstacles have been over come, and the laboratory building has been completed at 8 cost of ten thou sand dollars.
 The very stones used in the construc- tion of the laboratory are historic, for the building is located on the side of mountain on which the Spanish soldiers had thrown up breastworks to defend Tucson against the attacks of the Indi- ans before the American occupation A thousand feet above the Santa Cruz valley, on g. shelf of the mountain used by the Spanish soldiers as a look out, these men of science have built out of the black volcanic rock which formed the Spanish breastworks laboratory building equipped with every conyen- fence found in the most complete labo- ratory in the country, and have in- stalled the latest instruments and equipment used in their work-in strik- ing contrast to the rude but historic breastworks built by the Spanish sol diers who preceded them.
 Out of the mountain-side, and in some places out of the sheer wall of rock, has been blasted a wide road, a gentle as- cent up the side of the mountain to the site of the laboratory. The mountain is barren except for a growth of varied forms of cactus, but the difficult prob lem of water supply has been over come A pipeline two miles long car ries up the mountain side the water supplied by pumping-statio in the valley.

THE CHINESE RAID IN BOSTON.

Il
 A very careful and thorough inquiry has been made by committee of the Eliot club of Jamaica Plain into the matter of the wholesale arrest of Chi namen on the night of October il, with especial regard to the authority of law under which the arresting officials act ed. The Investigating committee of the club includes in it's membership compe- tent lawyers, and it's conclusions com- mand respect. It is noticeable that the chairman of the Boston police board has not seen fit to respond to inquiries addressed to him with respect to the authority under which the police force of this city acted in this affair.
 The conclusions reached by this com mittee are of great interest. Three warrants only, it appears, were issued by the United States commissioner pri- or to the raid, and these were drawn against the mythical persons John Doe, James Roe and Richard Roe. On these warrants three hundred persons were arrested, and of these one hundred and fifty were never arraigned at all, no complaints being made against them. In fact, it was a drag-net performance, without authority in law.
 Who is to be held accountable for this outrage? The legal responsibility for whatever the police do is apparently the same, whether they act at the instiga- ton of the immigration commissioner, Chinese inspector or solely under the direction or control of the police board of Boston. The police board can escape no legal or moral responsibility by say ing that they have turned the police of Boston over to the direction and control of federal authorities. Federal authori-
