THAT VIRGTNIAN SHAM BATTLE.

The Military Tournament in Madison Square
Garden this week has called out much well
deserved applause. tiny affair, notwithstand-
ing, if we compare it with the extensive ma
noeuvres which thousands OF regular troops and
militia will execute in Virginia later in the
year, and which will give the soldiers valuable
experience with regard to operations IN the
field.
No huge multitudes of lay witnesses can be
expected to gaze upon the coming evolutions
upon the theatre of famous battle in the Civil
War, because the scene is by no means easy
of access to extensive companies of lookers-on.
Thats,a pity, but it can't well be helped.
New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1904-05-06

the convenience and increase the profits of con-
tractors 1t does not relish the idea Of having
hundreds of Italian laborers bathing and wash
ing their soiled clothing in the water which
comes down TO this city for drinking purposes.
Yet that is precisely what has been done for a
long time at the site of the Muscoot Dam on
the CrotOn River, and that is what is now being
done at the site of the old village of Katonah,
on Cross River, the chief affluent of the Croton.
1t will be remembered that the dreadful cpl
demic of typhoid fever at Ithaca, n. Y. last
year was attributed TO the existence of just
such a camp upon q stream from which that
city received its water. Without exa operation,
ii may be said that, If present conditions at Ka-
tOnah continue, NETWORKS supply of water will
be seriously and even dangerously cOntami-
mated The evil is not an unavoidable one. 1t
could easily be remedied. Those camps and
barracks could be removed to a point from
which pollution Of the water would be impos
sible, and a train on the railroad could convey
the men to and from the scene of work each
day. But that would cost the contractors
something. New-York must go to millions of
dollars of expense to safeguard its water sup
ply and then contractors, for the sake of saw
ing few hundreds, are permitted to undo all
that work OF safeguarding and to expose the
water to incomparably worse pollution than
ever before. Truly that is a strange state of
affairs!
1t is more than strange. 1t is an offence to
common decency and menace TO health and
life which should not he tolerated longer than
the time it takes to send a teegraphic message
from New-Yorl to Katonah

THE TALK OF THE DAY.

Since the New-York Democratic State Conven-
uon Judge Parker has become known in Eng
lana The London Chronicle" has this 70 say Of
him; Now that IL seems fairly certain that Judge
Parker. OF New-YOrk. viii be the Democratic can
didate for the Presidency. the American reporters
are hot upon his trail What his political views
may be. what policy he intends TO pursue If elected
All this Is beside the mark. But We know that
he takes his coffee without sugar and his tea
without either milk sugar. That he is an Ameri-
can OF the Americans is proved by fact that he
eats pie for luncheon and dnner-custard and pump
Kin for choice His personal appearance is discussed
from all angles and pronounced superior TO Presi-
dent Rooseyelt's His nose is .aqunine' and his
high. broad forehead slopes back without a bump
Like Herbert Spencers his brow is wholly unfur-
rowed. indicating who can concentrate his
mind without the great effort which contracts the
facial muscles. 1t is difficult 20 conceive OF such
a paragon being beaten"

may be granted by the authority of the Presi-

thus licenses TO conduct commerce may be
granted, thus also the terms on which they are
granted may be prescribed, even TO requiring
the would-be traders TO pay for the privilege

REQUIRE CHURCHES
TO HAVE LICENSES
Building Inspector EIIeFbe VIII
so Recommend to the
Common Council.

Churches and public halls may be
required to have licenses If the rec
concentration to be made by Building
Inspector Ellerbe to the council COM
mittee on public safety which is pre-
pairing amendments to the building
code, is adopted. The purpose Of hav-
ing houses Of worship and halls IL
censed is to bring them more definitely
under the jurisdiction Of the building
Inspector, who will be required to as
certain that they comply with the law
before a license may be issued.
Inspections Of all the churches in the
city by men of the building inspectors
office has shown that some of them fail
to meet the requirements Of the code
in not having sufficient fire protection.
If the license plan is adopted a plan of
each church and hall will have to be
filed with the application for a license,
and if any defect Of construction Is
noted the license will be withheld till
changes are made. The purpose of the
plan is not to secure revenue, but to in
sure perfect safety to the public.
Most of the hotels have been found
to be provided with required exits fire
escapes and other details, but some OF
the lodging houses are said to be fire
traps, and changes will be demanded
in them.
The committee on public safety will
be called together next week, and the
recommendation of the building in
spector will be submitted.
