STRIDES MADE BY TELEPHONE

just thirty years ago at the
Centennial Exhibition the tele-
phone was for the first time eXhib
tied to the public. A few months
before Alexander Graham Bell
had perfected his invention in Bos-
ton, but it was not until a month
after the opening of the Centen-
NAL that it occurred to him to eX-
hibit the wonder working device
at the great fair. The develop
ment of the telephone system has
been brought about with marvel
GUS rapidity, but the engineers say
that what has been accomplished
is only the beginning. 1t is pre-
dicted that the time will come
when there will be one telephone
to every five persons in this coun-
try. At the same time improve
ments in apparatus and the inven-
ton of new devices, such as the
loading coils and repeaters now
being introduced on long-distance
lines, will greatly increase the dis
lance over which telephoning will
be possible.

g sne impressive fed ures
of the hot wave which has wei khed
so heavily upon life in New y prk,
and other large cities in the North
and East, during the last few bays
is found in the unusual number of
infants included in the death lists.
In New York out of total of ten
deaths Friday and Saturday eight
of the victims were infants; four
infants succumbed to the heat lin
Manhattan, and in Chicago a mum
Der of the victims were of tender
years.
In New York the suffering poor
stormed the public lighthouses,
and the police reported that fully
5000 persons had left their homes
inone night for the open spaces on
Coney Island.
The children Of the tenements
in larger cities press hard prob
lem upon the authorities, and one
which seems to be becoming ever
more difficult of solution. Philan-
thropists and others engaged in
humanitarian efforts can devote
their talents, energies and means
to no more profitable work than
that of improving the conditions of
life in the crowded tenements of
the great centers of population.
! 1t is to the enduring credit of
| Mr.. Roosevelt that he thought
enough of this problem to press it
upon the attention of Congress in
his first message; it is an issue
which should appeal to every man
lust enough in his views to value
the life of the humbly born.
No possible solution of the tene-
ment problem has yet been sug-
gested, but it is not unreasonable
to hope that some way may be
found to improve conditions in
these crowded, poorly lighted,
poorly ventilated places. The
bare reports now coming out Of
New York are saddening in the ex-
IRENE. They plead eloquently for
saner conditions in the large cen
tiers of population, conditions
which may at least give the child
the benefit of fresh air. In many
instances, no doubt, infants are
literally smothered to death in the
tenements of the metropolis, a fact
not easily reconciled with the ten
der and affectionate solicitude the
fortunate should feel for the unfor-
tunate of human kind.

IN SCHOOL TOO YOUNG
Michigan Educator Makes Notable Ad-
dress Before the State Teachers As
sociation at Battle Creek - Suggests
Some Radical Changes.

Battle Creek, Mich, Oct. 26.-Ad-
dressing 1900 school teachers today at
the annual convention Of the Michigan
State Teachers Association, President
Ellsworth Gage, Of Lancaster (Olivet,
Mich), College, made a number of
radical suggestions for changes in the
present educational systems. He de-
clared the children are started in
school too young; they should be at
least 8 years old before taking up
school work, and conitended there
should be but four years instead of
eight before the pupil entered high
school, Hygiene, he said, is more i'm
portant subject than either geography
and arithmetic for children to master.
Arithmetic should not be studied until
children have reached their thirteenth
year. He said the state superintendent
of public instruction spends too much
of his time, in politics and too little at
work. and recommended the engage
ment of a capable educator for the Of
flee at a salary of at least $4,000 per
year.

DRY DUSK CAUSES FIRE.
Loss Of $4,000, Insured, Suffered b

Loss Of $4,000, Insured, Suffered by
ottumwa Packing Plant.
Scccisl to Times-Hepublican.
Ottumwa, Oct. 26-A dry dust ex-
plosion, igniting from a drying fur
mace, caused $4,000 fire here in the
fertilizer department Of the John Nor
rell & Company, Ltd. packing plant.
The damage is fully covered by in
surance. Both the packing house and
the city fire departments were called,
but the fire had gained considerable
Roadway. and it took strenuous ef-
forts on the part OF the fremen to get
the blaze under control and keep it
from the other buildings Of the plant.
In the latter effort they were greatly
aided by the position Of the fertilizer
department, which stands at some dis
tance from the other buildings. The
roof Of the building was burned of
and much damage done to the machin-
cry inside.
In the manufacture of the fertilizer
at the plant, fine dust arises from
the product and pervades the atmos-
phere thruout the building. Furnaces
are used for the drying process and
it was while the door Of one of the
furnaces was open. that the flames
from it ignited the dust, which ex-
ploded.
