EQUALlZERS HAVE AMUSEMENT
AT EXPENSE OF PROTESTANT

w. F.. Poor, who owns some Standard
Oil stock assessed at $4,000, which he
wanted reduced to $1,000, furnished an
opportunity for some of the sparkling
wits on the board of equalization to
get off some puns on his name. A man
of the name had no business to own
Standard Oil stock they declared, or If
he had the stock he should change his
name.
Councilman Wallace declared any
man who held Standard Oil stock
should be assessed the limit. Mr.. PoorS
claim for reduction of assessment on
his ten shares of stock fell rather fiat
when he admitted it was worth about
$500 a share today. His claim was
based solely on the declaration that If
he Maid the taxes on the assessed valu-
alton It would take about one-eighth
of the profits on the shares to liqut-
date the taxes.

Despite all the suflerings and humi-

death he became reconciled to the in

to the reconstruction Of the South. In

|uqht and Water Committee NH
Recommend Such 70 The
City Council Tomorrow.
ARC, Gas ln1 TUNGSTEN LIGHTS
There viii be Five Of the Former Is
Of the Second hind and 20 Of the
Latter-Estimated That the New
System viii Prove Saving Of ST.
90 Per Annum to City.

If the rec concentrations of the
light and water committee are
adopted by the city council tomorrow
evening radical changes will be made
in the street illumination for the
coming year.
The committee met yesterday al
ternoon and decided to recommend
that arc lights, Tungsten lights and
gas be used in lighting the thorough
fares and 1t is estimated by the COM
mittee that the new system will prove
aa saving of about $1,000 per year
from the present system OF arc and
twenty five candle power lights.
Under the committees report there
will be five arc lights, 40 Tungsten
lights and % gas lights necessary to
illuminate the entire city. 1t Is esti-
mated that the entire cost to the
city for all the lights will be in the
neighborhood of 81, 100. The gas lights
will cost the city $50 each. while the
Tungsten lights will be SIS each and
the arc lights will cost $50 each per
annum.
1t is said that the Tungsten light.
while not as powerful as the arc
light, Is better than the twenty-five
candle-power incandescent lights and
for that reason the committee deem
cd it wise to do away with the small
lights and place the Tungsten lights
In their stead.
1t is likely that one Of the lights
will be placed at each end Of the
street, as, will also probably be the
case with the gas lights.
The full report Of the committee
will be submitted to the city council
for action tomorrow evening.
The committee on rules met-in the
office of Attorney John Weymouth
Yesterday afternoon and decided 10
have the set of rules recently adopted
by the council printed in booklet
form.
The ordinance committee will meet
this afternoon at 5 o'clOck~to take up
several ordinances, chief among the
lot being the one regulating the build
ing line in south King street.

or CITY LONELINESS.

An aged woman was found dead In
Phlladelphia apartment yesterday.
Not an uncommon occurrence by any
means, but It reminds one of the ut
ter isolation which is possible to the
Individual in urban life. There is no
suspicion of crime In this case. but Il
revelation OF the utter loneliness OF
some lives In . great city. This wo-
man had been dead for some time. and
her body was discovered only b,cause
int crested neighbors had missed her
for two weeks past.
Not infrequcntly cases Hike this en-
list the attention OF the police Of
large cities. Persons living alone. ap,
parently without friends or kindred,
come to life's great extremity with no
kindly hand to minister to their com
fort, no friendly voice to indicate
companionship In that hour when n
person most Graves the touch Of fel
low being: no one even to attend to
the ordinary deccncies of civilized
death bod. Like a wild animal OF
tho forest. seeking to die. so pass
away these recluses in the midst Of a
city's throbbing life.
The isolation possible Is strikingly
illustrated by such pathetic instances
rs came to light yesterday in Phiia-
delphia. The case was Of such an
ordinary character that the newspa-
pers gave n but scant attention. but
It Is anything hst a pleasant thought
to think Of this ased woman who had
to 60 down the steep dcclivity of the
great divide with no supporting hand.
A kindred loneliness Is felt by thou
sands Of men and women living solt
tary lives In single rooms and in
houses. Their need. as the whole
worad's greatest need. is for more
ueirhborlinesG. 1T Is not good for
man 10 be alone"-not good In life or
| In the hour Of Dissolution. There are
enough kindly hearts dwelling near
enough 10 everybody to make pos,
sible an interIacinE Of lives and inter.
ests such - would prevent these
tragedies Of Usefulness in the great
cities. but unfortunately for some
reason tbey continue to occur.
