An extensive house Of business in Boston, the
quantity OF whose sales reaches a portentous
amount every year. is convinced that a number
of men whom it has employed have been I'm
faithful to their responsibilities. 1t is alleged
that they have stolen at least S1OO,OOo from
their employers in the last five years. When
was there case of such unfaithfulness in an
important drygoods establishment in New
York? New-York holds her own in the thor
oughness with which she maintains rigid care in
preventing thieving on the part of those on the
payroll. Boston has evidently fallen Off in pro-
tecting her business establishments

the government is behind bill cutting down
the hours of labor in hot galleries. Some nodih-

1t is pleasant to know that there are many In
New-Yors who see the rising of a city beautiful
and splendid in the coming years and who are
working intelligently and enthusiastically TO re-
alze that vision. 1t is to voices like these that
the city should give heed.

TIE TALK OF THE DAY.

General Nogi. idol Of the japanese army. and
twice captor of Port Arthur. is of the ancient
Samurai fighting class of Japan and for forty years
he has served his country in various capacities In
the field. Few great generals ever went through
sterner novtiate than this resolute sef-contained.
self-mastered and ascetio japanese general. who,
when the with Russia declared. was given
the post of honor, the command Of the army for
the conquest of Port Arthur. In the Chinese
Japanese War Nogis army had captured Port
Arthur at a single assault. losing only eighteen
killed and 262 wounded. His first success raised
hope OF perhaps similar success the second time
among the Japanese people, but Nogi himself real
tied the stupendous nature of his task. and him
self resolutey to accomplish It. He succeeded but
at terrible cost and his achievement has made his
fame secure in military annals.

I'VE have gone through an expert.
ence in st. Louis in regard to streets
which ought to demonstrate what
would be the result OF the construction
Of good roads through the farming dis
trdcts," said speaker at a Missouri
good roads convention. THE street
improvement of St Louis began about
eighteen years ago. At first there was
very decided opposition to the taxing
Of the abutting property for the recon-
gtruction Of the streets. Some con-
tracts were let for the improvement Of
streets, and special tax bills were is.
sued against the property abutting on
those streets. Some Of those tax bills
were paid without opposition, but the
majority of them were contested. Pay
nent was held back. and test case
was carried through all the courts Of
the state by some Of the prominent citi-
Gems Of st. Louis.
mo man had the temerity even at
that time to oppose the improvement Of
the streets. but the position assumed
by these contestants was that. as these
highways were used BY the people Of
the entire city. the cost Of improve
ment should be paid BY q general tax
upon the entire community and should
notbe levied upon the abutting property.
The highest court at last decided that
the tax upon the abutting property was
just one, was q lien upon the proper.
~ and therefore must be paid. From
that time the improvement Of the
streets became more general. The I'm
passable condition Of the streets up to
that time lost US more from a CONNER
<ial standpoint than ten times the In.
tesest on the cost Of improvement.
"Since those streets have been i'm
proved the property abutting upon
them has increased in value from Is to
10 per cent Today public sentiment
has become SO entirely in favor Of
street improvement that no property
holder can hold out against it, and by
vote Of the people Of st. Louis. taken
within the last year, the charter has
been amended so as to remove the tax
limit Of Is per cent on the abutting
property. Public sentiment had be-
come 80 decidedly in favor of street i'm
prOvement that the taxpayers author
lied the municipal authorities to put an
unlimited tax upon any lot in order to
Improve the street in front Of that lot.
1.-THE result IL that you will see in
st. Louis miles and miles of improved
streets. which are not only comfort
70 the people who live in the city. but
ore an object Of admiration to visitors
They have greatly enhanced the value
