Electricity and Shade Trees.

The fastening of wires. whether hay ing an electrical connection or not, to trees is quite likely to kill them. The telephone wire. apparently harmless because of the slight current it carries. is almost as deadly as the electric light wires. says the Rochester Democrat. A grounding of the current of the tele- phone wire by swaying of branches or wire gives a tree intermittent shocks that kill. Wires carrying no steady current carry at times powerful atmos- pheric currents and are destructive
 Steel wire strung in the magnetic meri- diar becomes magnetic and the mag netic intensity varies. If such wires are attached to trees the latter show the effects in sickly foliage and slow growth. A wire with only casual or induced currents kills slowly, but # kills. Those who care for trees must keep wires away from them or the la Dor of planting and rearing will be lost

IMPROVING kATONAA.
New York Town Has Society That
 Is Doing Good Work.


 The Katonah Village Improvement society of katonah. x. l.. recently ceIe- brated its quarter centennial. This SO cfety was organized by Henry E. Pei lew. who became the first president. says the New York Tribune. Its object was the general improvement of the material surroundings of the village and the promotion of culture among the people Mir. Pellew in this work had the benefit of the acquaintance and advice of E. U. Northrup and the Rev. E. H. Egleston. who are spoken of as the pioneers of rural improvement in this country. He had made a careful study of the subject and was well pre- pared to be the head of the new enter prise.
 During the first year of the activity of the society public park was laid out. 200 trees planted along the streets. sidewalks were relaid. street lamps pro vided and the general sanitary condi- ton of the village improved. Streets were also reiaid. and the next year an old pond which had for long time been public nuisance was drained
 Tn the fall of 1880 the public library and reading room was established. with a nucleus of 400 books. It now con tains 5000 volumes and has become one of the principal features of the so- ciety's work. Another successful branch of the work was the maintenance of courses of lectures. concerts and enter tainments which are of a high order and have been well attended.
 Tn 1SSG the original association dis solved and was incorporated in its present form. Since that time its work has been constantly widening in its scope In 1897 the removal of the viii lage by the water commission destroyed much of the previous work of the soci- ety. However, it went at its labors with renewed vigor on the new site. and the result is one of the prettiest villages in New York state today.

STREET CLEANING.
Fissssurs's Plan For the Disposal ee
 Waste Paper.

There is 2 new head to the bureau of highways and sewers in Pittsburg. and the streets of tue city are to be kept cleaner than ever before as well as in better repair. says the Municipal Jour. nal and Enginecr. Director of Public Works Bigelow has appointed Mir. E. G. Nicewaner. C. E.. superintendent of the department. and already the latter has taken measures to keep the streets clean. One of the greatest sources of rntidiness in the streets of any town or city is the waste paper that blows ibout and makes the streets unsightly. It blows of the wagons that carry the refuse of tine dumps or is dropped upon the street by the careless pedes- rfan who throws away his newspaper or some advertising dodger that has been handed him by boys CT men dis tributinS the same.
 To dispose of this waste sir. Nicewa- uer has adopted the plan of stationinS salamanders along the wharfs. ir, which it will be burned X salamanGer Is simply large metal cage in whici, combust;ble stuff can be burned. Ip- stead Of cartinG the waste paper to the dumps it will be burned in the saia- manders. Business houses can semi their waste paper to the salamander5 and have it destroyed
 The department has been using a humber of small. portable wire sala- manders attached 10 the hokey carts. Tn regard to these Mir. Nicewarer wrote. From the satisfaction they are giving I ain inclined to believe that they will eventually solve the paper nuisance" When the cage full of paper Is gathered by the hokey man he retires to the nearest alley and ignites it. In a few moments he gathers up the hand fui Of ashes. dumps it in his can and then resumes his beat.
 The highway department is encour- aging hCUseholders to buy this sala- mander for" writes Mir NicewaneT. '90 per cent of the paper we now take care of is thrown into the highways surreptitiously and in violation of the law. It Is our hope that after the householder is educated into an obedi- snce to the law through frequent prose cutons for violations thereof We shall see much waste destroyed by the ones whose duty it is to destroy it and not subject this bureau to a burden that does not properly belong to it."

Good Town Builders.

No power on earth is so strong to build up a town as a newspaper well patronized. and it's power should be ap- preciated- A newspaper whose columns overflow with advertisements of busi- ness men has more influence in attract ing attention to and building up a city or town than any other agency that can be employed People go where there is business. Capital and labor will locate where there is an entes- prising community.

WHEN A MAN STARVES.
Effect Of Lack of Food Varies with the
Davs.

For the first two days through
which a strong and healthy man is
doomed to exist upon nothing his suf
ferings are perhaps more acute than
IN the remaining stages; he feels an
inordinate, unspeakable craving at the
stomach at night and day. The mind
runs upon beef, bread and other sub
stances, but still, in a great measure,
the body retains it's strength. On the
third and fourth days, but especially
on the fourth, this incessant craving
gives place to sinking and weakness
OF the stomach, accompanied by
nausea.
On the fifth day his cheeks appear
hollow and sunken, his body attenu-
ated, his color is ashy pale and his
eyes wild, CLASSY and cannabalistic.
The sixth day brings with 1t in
creased suffering, although the pangs
OF hunger are lost in an over-powering
languor and sickness. The head be-
comes dizzy, the ghosts of well-rS-
membered dinners pass in hideous
procession through the mind.
The seventh day comes. bringing in
creasing lassiture and further pros
tration of strength. The mind wan

ABOUT THE LONDON "CABBY."
He Works Fourteen Hours Day and
Gets About Five ShiIlinQs Pay.

There are in London 2,711 cab pro-
prietors, and of these 2,224 own fewer
than five vehicles, says a writer in
Outing. AS you see, it Is a poor mans
industry.
The average price for hiring a cab
is IL shillings and pence a day. In
addition the cabman has to pay the
yard fees. He gets two horses a day
and Is usually fourteen hours on the
box His license costs him five shil
lings a year. The tax Of G2 on the
cab and the 15-shilling wheel duty are
paid by the owner. Taking 1t day IN
and day out, the cabby makes about
shillings day. In the season he
may take in more money, but as the
hire is raised on him it comes to the
same thing. If he is not content
and there is no reason why he should
be-he does not grumble unduly.
Every day in London 100000 people
ride in cabs. OF course there is fric
tion and there is a deal of noisy quar-
reling over fares, but SO far as my ex'
perience goes the cabby is usually
right in his estimate of the distances
he has travelled and the money that Is
due him.
The cab horses are good lot. They
are worked six hours a day on an
average. About three years in han
som, however, will do up the best OF
them. Then they diff down to the
four-wheelers.
