4 GREAT SCIENTIFIC CENTRE.


Architects have just been invited to offer
plans for the two new buildings provided for
by Mr.. Carnegie's recent gift, the union home
IN Thirty-.linth-st and the house of the En-
gineers' Club IN FOrdeth-st. That such action
is already possible indicates that the conference
committee Of the organizations to which the
offer was addressed has been hard at work.
Scarcely more than six weeks have elapsed
since Mr.. Carnegie's proposition was renewed
in such form as to make the project Ger
tainty. Immediately thereafter the opportunity
was given to 4 number Of scientific societies,
which, like the engineering bodies, were in need
OF BETTER accommodations. TO become tenants
OF the Thirty ninth-st edifice. Though accept
ances were reasonably prompt as well as nu-
merous little progress could be made in defn-
ing requirements until this important group of
negotiations was ended. The committee was
then in a position TO tell the architects what
was wanted. 1t has now done So fixing June
70 as the limit 10 the competition. If, as may
be reasonably expected, a thoroughly satisfac-
tory plan shall be found at that time, il should
be feasible to let contracts 10y midsummer, il
not before For the energy and intelligence
thus Far displayed by the committee it deserves

The chief source Of danger from oysters lies
IN the abuse of them. There is scarcely any
other article of food that is so grossly and stu
pidly i'll used. In its native state and its natu-
raj habitat the oyster of the northeastern
coast OF America is one of the most delicious
and healthful of all the food products of the
sea- But the pitable apology for an oyster

the pure salt water in which alone it can doiIr-

done at the mouth Of a river, and sometimes

stand how contamination with typhoid germs
may occur. Nor is it difficult In such a case to
conJure up an excuse for those people who re

from their shells! In normal circumstances the
washing of an oyster might well be regarded
as prima facie evidence Of hopeless dementia:
but considering that the average city oyster
has been in soak" in water of unquestionable
dirtiness. the washing Of it in clean water is
really not such bad device. OF course it still
further diminishes the faint traces of flavor
which may have survived the soaking But
since the thing is half spoiled anyway, we
may as well have 1t half spoiled and clean as
half spoiled and dirty. If only people would

Yesterdays railway accident in Missouri may
have been attended by less serious consequences
than were indicated by the earlier reports. In
similar cases it not infrequently happens that
the first estimates of the injury done are exag-
gerated, being based almost entirely guess
work. Whatever be the exact truth. however.
the occurrence is not a pleasant omen. While
the Louisiana Purchase Exposition remains
open scores Of other special trains will be run
for the benefit of excursionists. If no greater
vigilance should be exercised by employees than
was exhibited on the st. Louis Iron Mountain
and Southern yesterday, the aggregate slaughter
during the whole period would be appalling.
