board Of health have prevented any ep-
idemic outbreak therefrom.
"The sanitary results obtained in the
past four years through American con-
troll have been accomplished" says DR..
Munson, despite the naturally insa-
lubrious location of Manila, and its total
lack of sanitation under the former
sovereignty, which-from the level site
interfering with drainage, the many
foul canals ramifying through the city,
the absence Of any sewerage system and
the existence Of an impure and insult
dcient water supply and many old, I'M
healthful habitations - have created
sanitary problems of the greatest diff
aculty. The board of health has there
fore been unable to turn previously ex-
listing methods and conditions to SAM
tary advantage and has found it neces-
sary not only to develop entirely new
plans Of improvement, but at the same
time to combat the results Of conditions
Inherited from the Spanish administra-
ton. The mixed character of the in
habitants, with their prejudices, super
stitions and largely primitive habits
of life, has also been a constant obsta-
Gle in sanitary work, as evidence of
which 1t may be mentioned that circu-
lars Of the board of health are neces-
sarily published in English, Spanish,
Tagalog and Chinese languages"
Attention is invited to the fact that
the present annual mortality in Manila,
22.17, is lower than that of many cities
not commonly regarded as unhealthful
situated in the United States and else
where. Washington city is included
in this list, with an annual death rate
per 1000 in 1900 of 22SO. According to
DR.. Munson the present death rate Of
Manila compares not unfavorably with
that of many representative cities
throughout the world which possess
all modern sanitary conveniences, a
established government and a
highly educated population, such as San
Francisco, Boston and New York, Glas-
COW, Paris, Vienna and Havana.

The corridor separating the two
houses is continuation of the old
rotunda, with a row of marble pillars
on each side to support the passage
wav above, which gives acces to the
galleries. Next to the old building
on the north side is a hall where an
imposing stairway will be erected.
A temporary one will serve for the
present. Crossing the end of the ro-
tunda is the gallery.
The porch facing the State building
is designed to be of white marble
upon the plan of the present front
portico. The ground floor is divided
into committee rooms, and there is
also number of fine rooms on the
second floor.
1t is designed to restore the old
Senate chamber to its ancient and
historic form, and to retain it posi-
bly, as kind of museum. The old
house chamber will be kept for use in
public hearings before legislative
committees. etc The other rooms on
the main floor can be used bv com
mittees and clerks 1t is purpOsed to
move the Adiutant General into one
Of the rooms vacated by the Court of
Appeals, and to add the present Ad-
iutaut Generals room to the suite of

Under the new arrangement there
will bee no fire in the State House.
The Court Of Appeals Building Com
mission has erected a fine heating
plant adjoining the railroad station
from which all the State buildings
are heated This will remove a great
danger from the historic State House
Many difficulties have been encoun-
tered in the construction of the annex,
chiefly the labor troubles, which have
at times almost suspended the build
ing operations. The contractors have
lately made every effort to have the
building ready for the Legislature,
and workmen have been employed on
1t night and day
The design is plain and simple,
carving out the lines of the old
building, the bricks having been spe-
cially made to match, as near as pos
sible, the old bricks
The new building when completed
will be lireproof and modern in all
respects, presenting on the outside
the general outline and character of
the work a. originally built
It is hoped by the commission that
the next Legislature will provide for
the restoration of the oil / State House
to it, original lines perishable mate
rials such a. wooden columns, cor
nices, etc, to be replaced by stone,
the floor and roof to be of tireproof
construction. as matter of precau-
ton aud safety for the preservation
not only of the old building, but of
the new addition.

ANOTHER RUNAWAY ON THE GRADE.
The Train Was Gotten Under Control, How
ever, aud No Damage Resulted.


Another runaway occurred Oh the
seventeen mile grade last Friday
night. II was very fortunate for the
trainmen that there was nothing close
ahead on the track. Had there been
another train ahead destruction and
death would certainly have been the
sad lot of the trainmen, because the
runaway could not possibly be con
trolled until the down grade had been
passed Before arriving at Piedm ont
the train was under control without
accident. The fact that the runaway
train passed the scene of last Sundays
catastrophe made the trainmen shud-
der. When their train came under
control without serious accident the
railroaders congratulated each other
upon the fact that they had not been
added to the list Of seqenteen mile
grade victims
In discussing the probable cause of
these frequent runaways, one expert
enced railroad man was inclined to
place much of the blame upon the bad
condition of the brakes now used on
the average freight ear. This railroad
er stated that the general orders from
Superintendent Fitzgerald com
manded that the brake on every car
should be in first class shape as long
a. the ear might be kept running.
Tins order il is claimed. however, is
not enforced by subordinate officials,
and the care and inspection of breaks
is left 10 the trainmen instead of be-
Ing properly attended toby car inspec-
tors or other persons appointed for
that specific purpose.
