Gently expressed the opinion that the

Perhaps the German savant only Wis
tied the arlstocratic neighborhoods, for
certainly the average American boy has
the same aversion to soap and water
as the boys of every other country un-
that the boys will agree with the scien-
fist that they are kept too clean.
This remark of DIR. Koch brings to
mind recent article in the New York
Medical Journal concerning the earlier
centuries when the people did not use
soap, a soapless age, so to speak Moth
ing was done in the way of sanitation,
except that some cities were well sup
piled with water. Soap was unknown
to the classical age. both in Greece and
Rome. Pliny mentions a compound
which he calls sapo. made by the Gauls
and Germans. and the ingredients which
entered into it. He also says that it
was more used by the men than the
women In the latter country.
Instead of soap, the ancient Greeks
used flesh serapers. These were highly
esteemed and given Us prizes in ath-
letic contests. The conclusion is reached
that, in spite of lack of soap and sani-
tation. the mortality of 1000 years ago
was no greater than in our own day.

The capital city of this country is
run by three commissioners, and that
it is the most governed city in the
United States goes without saying The
latest edict of these three august per-
sonages is to the effect that all washer
women in the city must be licensed.
Every woman who takes in washing,
estimated to number in the aggregate
1900 CT more, must obtain a permit
within thirty days or retire from bust
ness. More than 500 of the unfortu-
mates had already walked up to the
captains office and settled at the last
accounts. and the others were seeking
the price.
Among the other orders handed down
is one against lettering on the streets;
another that newsboys must have a Ii

able noises such as whistling after dark
are prohibited; dogs must be muzzled
or held in leash; homeless cats are to

The killing of former Senator Car
mack Of Tennessee continues to excite
widespread attention, especially in the
said that the facts do not warrant. but
the deplorable tragedy has added bit
terness and ferocity to the fight now
being waged for prohibition south of
Mason and Dixon's line. Senator Car
mack had recently been a candidate for
the Democratic nomination for governor
against Governor Patterson, and during
the campaign advocated statewide pro-
hibition. He was defeated, and among
mis- most Jealous opponents was Major
Duncan Cooper. whose son fired the IA
tai shots ending the career of Mr.. Car
mack. AS editor of the Tennesseean,
Mr.. Carmack had referred to Major
Cooper several times. and on the morn
ing of the tragedy penciled the follow
ing:
To Major Duncan Brown Cooper. who
wrought the great coalition; who achieved
the harmonious confluence of incompat-
1Dle elements; who welded the pewter
handle to the wooden spoon: who grated
the dead bough TO the living tree and
made il to bloom and bourgeon and bend
with golden fruit; who made playmates
of the lamb and the leopard and boon
companions or the spider and the fly.
who made soda and vinegar 70 dwell

taught oil and water how they might
agree-to Major Duncan Brown Cooper.

bund. be all honor and glory forever,
Major Cooper was accused of having
brought together Ex-Governor John I.
Cox and Governor Patterson, former po-
litical enemies. Surely, there was moth
ing in the accusation or the editorial
which called for the death of the writer,
either at the hands of Major Cooper or
his son. Worse things are said every
day during political campaigns in three
fourths of the papers OF the country.
But the tragedy occurred. Young

held without bail as an accessory.
Thursday John D. Sharpe. an ex-sheriff,
who was In company with the Coopers
at the time of the shooting, was also
charged with the murder of Carmack,
and locked up.
This is probably but the beginning of
a feud which will rend Tennessee from
one end TO the other.
