some of which were mounted and
some preserved alive, were in a box,
and were intended for the use of
learned men in England and Ger
many. The box was lost somewhere
between st. Paul and the Wellington
Hotel.
Twenty-Five years ago such an oc-
currence would hardly have provoked
comment-not half as much comment
as the escape of a big snake from
Barnum's menagerie. But now there
are probably hundreds Of people in
Chicago who are qualling at the
thought of unwittingly absorbing
some of these germs.
The scare may do them good. 1t
may lead them to reflect upon the
fact that the ordinary dust of our
streets also contains bacilli, and that
it is impossible to keep a city in thor
ough sanitary condition without con-
tinual sweeping and scrubbing of the
streets. The germ scare has its abb
surd aspects, since a healthy organ
ism can absorb numerous germs with
out serious injury, but it will be
worth while. if it leads to greater
cleanliness in towns.

parental opportunity for observation,
or to exceptional experience. but it is
unscientific and inaccurate. anyway.
There have been physicians who
advanced the opinion that a certain
amount of screaming, shouting. and
general racket is necessary to the de-
velopment of a healthy child. and
curiously enough, their ideas coincide
with those of the average old-fash-
toned grandmother. The CHEEKY,
bustling old danes who were equally
at home raising chickens, cOsseting
unreasonable lambs, or bringing up
children, we're wont TO say that dirt
in a reasonable degree was good for
children, and so were exercise and
racket, within bounds. or course. The
physicians and scientists seem of late
to be coming around to the view of
these dear old ladies, and treating the
child more or less as a healthy young
animal. And how is a healthy young
animal to be brought up in a cage?
The people who want ali sorts of
noises abolished-and +. McCabe may
be one of them, or merely a sarcastic
satirist having a little fun by express
ing extrayagant views-are apt 10 be
slightly unreasonable. When they
are, they do harm, and encourage the
parents of youthful vandals TO be just
as unreasonable. Nobody has any
business to object to the natural
ebullitions of healthy childhood; but
some children are more annoying
than they need be, and they are the
youngsters who make landlords wary
and the neighbors cross.

The teamsters' strike, threatened
IN New York as a sympathetic move
in connection with the strike of the
freight handlers Of the New York,
New Haven, and Hartford Railroad,
has apparently been averted. At
least a truce was agreed upon last
night between the Civic Federation
and the representatives of the 10000
teamsters after a six hours confer
ence. Meanwhile the freight hand
lers' strike grows with startling ra-

all the piers In New York have been
deserted, and some of the firemen
and oilers on the Long Island Sound
steamers and the towing feet in New

ers declare that today will see an ex-
tension into New England. More
over, the trouble IS likely to spread
to the Pennsylvania Railroad. All
this is the result, not of any especial

The Smoke Law.
The Presidents Order Abolishes an IN
qualified Nuisance.


qualified Nuisance.
For a considerable length of time
the city of Washington has afforded
to observers acquainted with the facts
the singular spectacle of officials of
the Government calmly breaking the
law every day of their lives, not in
holes and corners, but openly, OBJ
viously, 50 that the smoke literally
assembled to heaven for a witness
against them. We have had smoke
regulations for some time, and peo-
pie who could not afford 70 pay fines
or were conscientious about keeping
the law, have religiously observed
them. But there are few large bust
ness houses IN which the law is daily
violated, and the Government set the
example. The smoke from the build
ings occupied by the Department of
the Interior and the Government
Printing Office was dense and black
and unpleasant looking, and persons
passing those buildings were likely to
have SCOT deposited upon their faces
and garments.
The Commissioners and the police
went on the warpath about this.
They had the heads of the depart
ments UP in the Police Court. only to
be told that when lights were sud
denly needed in the departments it
was necessary to fire the furnaces to
their full capacity. It viii be news to
a good many millions of people in
different parts of the country that ar
tifciaI light is needed in many of the
Government Offices between the hours
of and 4, but that is the case.
The charges were dismissed. Pub
lie officers were held to be neither the
owners nor the agents Of Govern
meut property. The question, who
is responsible for Government
smoker" threatened to take its place
with the query, who struck Billy
Patterson" II the heads of depart
ments were not responsible, who
was? The whole United States could
not be hauled up in the Police Court
of the District of Columbia.
The Commissioners carried the
case TO the President. The President
is not a lawyer, and he gave no
! opinion on the legal aspects of the
! case. He went about it in a shorter
way than that. He told the heads Of
departments that the law must be
kept. and if they didn't keep it he
would know the reason why, or words
to that effect. If there were no smoke
consumers in the chimneys, get some.
/ If the chimneys were Of a pattern
which did not allow them. recon
struct the chimneys. At all costs,
obey the law.
This is a country IN process Of con-

partments match the country. Most
of our public officers are doing bust

ouate to modern requirements They
