ries, but women Of small churches

A campaign to protect the children's
ice cream and fruit has been begun by
inspectors Of the health department. AS
q result Of the first nights work two
men were arrested and warrants for
three others asked for.
Inspectors Stoy and Beckham spent
several hours in visiting ice cream fac
tories and fruit storage rooms in alleys

Officer w. c. Woodward yesterday in
regard to the inspections some insani-
tary places were discovered.

corner with old shoes. clothes. ETC.

dition. floor. walls and ceiling being un-
clean"

unclean.
In the cases Of the men who were ar

pearance in the Police Court yesterday.

NAVY ACTIVE OVER WIRELESS
EXTENSIVE EXPERIMENTS ARE
PLANNED FOR SUMMER.
School for instruction at New York
Navy Yard-Battleships Equipped
With Long-Distance Apparatus.

The United States Navy is not tagging
In the development of wireless telegra-
ply. The wireless experts Of the navy
are continuously working to improve It's
use by the navy. About June 10 a series
Of extensive experiments will begin at
Brand Rock, Mass. at which representa-
tives of the navy will be present. These
experiments will be carried on to DEM
onstrate the capability of meeting all re-.
quirements set forth in the specifications
of the Navy Department about which
some doubt has been expressed by the
experts.
These experiments will probably ex-
tend throughout the summer. and the
battleship Connecticut, flagship of the
Atlantic fleet. will take part. There is
being equipped on the Connecticut new
set of wireless Instruments capable of
sending messages a distance Of 1000
miles and receiving them at a distance
Of 5000 miles. The battleship Mississippi
also is to be equipped with similar ap-
paratus.
Extensive use will be made Of wireless
telegraphy during the maneuvers OF the
Atlantic battleship fleet on the Atlantic
coast this summer.
Torpedo Boats Equipped.
The torpedo boats of the Atlantic tor
pedo fiotilla are being equipped with
wireless. These will be the first vessels
Of the torpedo craft of the navy to be
so equipped. These little vessels will
have sending radius Of about 200 miles.
At present the navy has a school for
fnstructing men in wireless telegraphy. It
Is located at the New York navy yard
and there are in attendance about sixty
students. These men when fully efficient
are sent to the navy wireless stations
on the coast or aboard one of the battle-
ships, where a force of five men is re-
quired to work the ships instruments.

compel the people of one section to pay
their share Of the burdens Of government.
but at the same time compel them to pay

under this bill Is nearly 45 per cent.

that two of these include articles largely

the reduction is less than l per cent
