New York'S Executive Declares
The People Are Determined
To Control.
OUTLINES PROPER MAC HINERY
Speaks OF Public Service Commission
OF Gotham Held Before Guests rs
Model for Investigation.

New York. March 6.--That the peo-
pie are determined that there shall be-
adequate regulation OF the railroads.
but that they are sincere in their
avowed wish that such regulation shall
be just, was the belief expressed by
Governor Charles E. Hughes in an adj
dress before the trafic club tonight.
The governor was a guest at the din
ner of the club, which also entertained
the heads and other officials OF many
railroad corporations
The governors conviction that there
was an urgent necessity OF first arl'iV-
ing at the concrete facts of the Situ-
alton and finding out Just what was
wanted before any attempt was made
TO regulate, was made plain also. The
New York public service commission
was used as un illustration of the proc
per machinery for getting the traf-
fic system and the people who patron
lied it into touch with each other for
their mutual interest
CHEERS FOR GovERNuB
Governor Hughes was introdurr
General Passenger Agent Geow a.

y Western, as the man who does big
things" This reference pleased the
fancy OF the diners, who cheered as the
governor responded.
Governor Hughes said in part:
There is not the slightest question
that the great American people are In
terested in their railroads and want to
see them developed and extended and
every possible means adopted TO bring
them up to the maximum of service,
Now. In order that the problems of

A PUBLIC BUSINESS.
The governor said that railroad men
must recognize the indisputable fact
that the people had determined that
railroading was a public business. and
that il was to be regulated In the in
terests of the public Whether this
regulation came in the right way
would depend, he said upon the sin

President Eliot Says Instructors

CHICAGO, April l0.-Young col

blessedness, according TO President
Charles Eliot, OF Harvard University,
who lectured on "The Trustees at
Northwestern University last night.
Only when the instructor had ad-
vanced to an assistant professorship
should he contemplate fnatrimony, is
the view # the educator.
The trustees OF university should
use careful judgment in regulating the
scale OF salaries for teachers and Of.
ficers Of the university" President
Eliot said. "The salary for an in
structor beginning to teach in uni
versity should be the amount needed
by young unmarried man to live
comfortably but not in Injury
"The salary should be advanced
as the instructor gains in usefulness
and by the time he is ready for an as
sistant professorship his salary
should be enough to enable him to
support wife and two or three
children comfortably but not in lux
ury.
"Under all circumstances, the trus-
tees should use good judgement in
arranging the scale of salaries and
take into consideration the circum-
stances and surroundings in each
separate instance"

city, and greater by 1861 than the
same period in 1907 Based on this
standard Father Knickerbocker may
expect about 100000 babies during the
present year, and as the increase OF
the city's population depends on
local births for only small percen-
tage OF the increase Of its population,
as compared to immigration II seems
probable that New York may shortly
be tthc most populous city in the
world. Not only is the birth rate the
highest in the history Of the city, but
the death rate the lowest. The aver
age in this regard so far this year
shows less than eighteen and, one
half deaths out OF each one thousand
population. A surprising feature in
this connection is found in the de-
crease of marriages. Whether be-
cause of the hard times or the new
registration law is not known, but
records for the first quarter of 1907
show only 1857 marriages during the
quarter as against ll,7s0 during the
same period last year. As result
il appears that while Cupid and the
undertakers are less busy, the stork
is buster than ever before.

More glasses drinking glasses
Iare broken II New York every day
than In any other city In the world,
according to figures just gathered.
In the seven thousand and odd drink
ing places along 1.-THE Incandcscent
Row, as Broadway is now called, the
valhc OF goblets shattered every year
would support more than 1000 fafni-
lies, since the total runs about $4,000
1000 every twelve months. Strange as
Il may seem the common beer glas-
scs at five cents apiece furnish nearly
half Of the total more than $2,0OO,000
worth OF Schooner containers be
ing smashed every year In various
ways. II Is not alone the cheapest
glasses which contribute 10 this enor-
nous total, however, since thousands
OF choice glasses made Of cut or Ven
ctian glass and valued at from fifty
cents TO several dollars apiece are
broken In the higher class cafes every
year The figures show indeed more
than one hundred Of the most ex-
elusive places In each OF which such
brcakagc amounts 10 more than $500
annually. There are at least d dozen,
too. where the sum exceeds $4,000
every twelve months. The careless
or destructive public Is not called
upon to make good this loss in the
majority Of places except in the case
Of mirrors. For the pleasure Of
breaking one Of them the customer
Is expected to pay. OF course, to a
large part Of the 100000 annual
loss arises from the more valuable
glasses which are merely clipped.
Such. however, in the better cafes
and hotels are discarded as a total
loss How important this whole item
is may be seen from the assertion OF
glass manufacturers 70 the effect that
an annual revenue averaging 500 ac.
crues to them from each drinking
place in the state. In addition to
this the value Of the glassware stolen
from the restaurants every year
amounts to about 100000 so that
Father Knickerbocker's drink bill, in
addition to costing him about $780,
100000 annually for liquids consumed
has added to 1t the not insignificant
sum Of $5,000,00O for containers.

The forthcoming concert of the
Oberlin College Glee Club to be
given at The Empire theatre the
evening of December Is, taking
the place of the regular vaudeville
entertainment, will undoubtedly be
largely attended by the music
lovers of the city. This organ
ization of college men is sent out
to represent one of the largest
institutions of the east. Oberlin
college has an enrolment Of 1900
in all departments, one of the
larger branches of the old institu-
ton being the Conservatory OF
Music with an enrolment annually
of over TOO. Many of Watertown's
daughters have graduated from or
have attended this famous institu-
ton during years past and 1T is
from the present enrolment that
the twenty members of the Glee
Club were drawn. Years will un-
doubtedly elapse before another
opportunity will present itself to
hear a concert Of classic compost
lions and college glees of equal
merit in this city.

We supposed the worst calamity
that would befall most people this
month would be that Of having to
pay for holiday presents. Our
blood was therefore chilled yester-
day, as we persued the direful
prophecies of New York prophet
Lee j. Spangler by name.
According to Spangler, no less a
catastrophe than the end Of the
world is to take place the latter
part of the month-probably on
Sunday, December 81.
Some of the terrible things that
will Immediately precede the end
of the world are described by
Spangler in the following fashion:
Nation shall rise against nation.
Kingdom shall rise against king
dom.
There will be famines and pest
licences and earthquakes.
Rivers will dry up.
The fish of the sea will die.
The sea will boil up with a
great noise.
The cities of the nations will
fall.
Mountains will notbe found.
Islands will pass away.
The city of Boston will sink.
New York will 90 up in smoke.
People will flee to the mountains,
The land will dry up to gel

A FUNNY STUNT

L. G. Dobbs living northwest of
the lake has an unused stovepipe
hole in the roof of his house over
which has been placed a common
roof jack in the top of which
wadded common grain bag had been
placed for the purpose of closing
the orifice.
One evening last week between
shutdown and dark a large white
owl was seen to come from the hills
in the direction of the house.
When directly over it, he paused
in his flight; held his body motion
less for moment by a few flaps
of the wings then swooping down
he seized the grain bag with his
talons, drew it from the opening
which it closed and flew with it to
the hills beyond; here he alighted,
surveyed and tasted of his catch,
then took it up again and resumed
his flight over the hills and out of
sight. He probably had heard that
Christmas turkeys roost high and
seeing this object which resembled
a fowl upon the extreme roof of
the house considered it a golden
opportunity to help himself to a
Christmas turkey; or he may have
only been clearing the way for
Santa Claus to come down the
chimney.
