CfG4RET1 Es AGAIN.

Reputable medical men and reputable
medical journals have lately announced
that cigarettes are not as deadly as they
have been supposed to be, but the Lon
don School Board is not persuaded that
they are good for children. After a
sharp discussion in the Board the other
day the whole subject was referred to
the School Management Committee for
discussion and report. 1t appears that
four years ago the committee sent out a
circular to all board school principals,
directing their attention to the physical
and calling upon them to discourage
Fit to the best Of their ability. Some of
the members of the board, including the
Rev. Stewart Headlam, founder of the
Church and Stage Guild, took the rather
of their business to see that boys did
not smoke out of school hours, but they
| were OutVOleu py d large ndJoTlty. Inc
fact was mentioned that in Birmingham
a number of the largest retailers had
agreed not to sell cigarettes to children
under sixteen. Rev. "A. w. Jephson said
that he had just returned srom the
United States. and was able to report
that lin New York he did not see a
single boy smoking, even in the poorer
quarters, and as one of the results he
noticed an absence of those palefaced,
miserable specimens of humanity which
were too frequent in London" Those
who know New York are wondering
what Mr.. Jephson did see or can see.

THE ICE FIELDS OF THE HUDSON.


Work of the Army of Men Who Are
Filling the Ice-Houses.
When the iceman comes around next
sumner he will be able to leave a good
solid piece of ice practically free from
all trace of snow. 1.-The first in years.,
is the verdict of the ice cutters now
at work on the Hudson between Kings
ton and Albany. Fourteen inches
thick and as clear as crytal," say the
icemen. All the workmen on the great
fields of the Hudson are delighted with
the outlook, and the work is going for
ward as rapidly as weather conditions
will permit. Nevertheless, the ice trust
men are already shaking their heads
and predicting high prices for next
summer. THE ice is SO thick this win
ter" they say, that the cost of cutting
and handling it is much greater than
usaul. We are not in the business for
our health, and we will be Obliged to
charge enough next summer to make
uo for our extra outlay in wages now"
However that may be, the huge army
of workmen employed at The task Of
saving up the Hudson's ice coat are

B4LTIMoRE DIFFICULTY.

Baltimore will soon be rebuilt, but
there is more trouble about rebuilding
it than there would have been were it
not for the ground rent system, which
has survived there more generally, it
is said, than in any other American
city. 1t is a relic of the times of Lord
Baltimore, although it has been to
some extent modified by legislative en-
actments. Much of the land in the
burned district is held under long leases,
some of them running for ninety-nine
years, with the privilege of renewal.
The amount of the rent varies very
greatly. For the ground occupied by
one large building the rent is only SIS
a year, while a much less pretentious
structure is built on ground for which
the rent is. $1,000 year. On the basis
Of this system Of land rent, numerous
contracts of many kinds have been
made which now occasion complications,
and are very embarrassing with respect
to plans for rebuilding.
But the new Baltimore will be better
than the old, even with the ground
rent complication.

has surprised folks again by restrain

Governor Vardaman was elected OH an
anti-negro platform, and the ignorant
blacks understood his election to mean
that they would be returned to servi-

few weeks ago, gave utterance to
statements SO strongly anti-negro in
character, that the North was shocked.
His statement that education had not
resulted in improving the black man

In the Russian rural commune of
Schava, in the government of Tzarcff,
Koksaka, recently, inexplicable noises
were heard for several days issuing
from the earth, The sounds varied from
something IKE the booming of cannon
to the screeching of steam whistles,
and seemed to come from a forest
skirting the commune. In this forest,
where the terrified peasantry gathered
in expectation of some calamity, the
earth was seen to heave incessantly.
Gradually huge cracks appeared, water
was seen at last the earth seemed
gradually to sink, water rose, and there
appeared new lake of considerable ex-
tent, which is now being examined by
biologists.
