MOVING A TOWN

TT is no unheard-of thing for families who have
lived in house until it is neither clean nor
habitable to overcome the difficulty by moving
into another dwelling: but it is much less COM
mon to hear of whole community adopting
the same plan This, however was the method
by which the Japanese solved the problem of
providing sanitary accommodations for the in
habitants of filthy and unsantary town.
When the japanese assumed control of the
island of Formosa they had to meet the same
difficulties that confronted our own Govern
ment in some of the Cuban cities just after the
war with Spain. In Formosa, as in Cuba. the
centers of population were for centuries breed
ing places for pestllence without even the rudi-
ments of a sanitary system.
The Japanese at once turned their attention
to remedying conditions from which their own
soldiers as well as the ordinary inhabitants
must inevitably have suffered.
The task, everywhere difficult, seemed to
have been deemed at first impossible of accom-
plishment in at least one instance. Teukcham,
an important center of trade. was found too
dirty to be made moderately healthful.
1t was decided that it would be cheaper and
easier to remove the inhabitants to another site.
Accordingly the forty thousand people of
Teukcham were ordered to prepare for removal
from the infected and SWampy ground
which the town then stood and to AXE up their
abode hillside several miles away
Here streets were laid out corresponding to
those of the old town. Every property owner
received plot of land similar in size and posi-
ton to that which belonged to him before the
change. The new town was provided with
ers, railroads. sidewalks. public buildings,
waterworks and other Improvements, all sup
Piled at expense of the Government.
The transfer was effected within twelve
months. and that without any great individual
loss or hardship.

DUCK HUNTERS HAPPY.
Feeding Grounds on the Potomac
Well Stocked With Game.

The present cold spell is bringing ducks
in good number to the Potomac, accord
ing to report. and the outlook for hunt
ing is good. So far this season the bulk
of the wild ducks and geese on sale at
this city have come from the North Caro-
lima sounds and other southern waters,
but the dealers are now looking for ship
ments of the birds from along the Poto-
mac.
Reports coming from Whitewater, Va,
state that tho river at that point was yes
terday covered with several hundred
ducks OF all varieties. Ducks are also re-
ported numerous farther down the river,
but in the vicinity Of this city they have
been scarce, and most of them have been
OF the less desirable kinds. Usually at
this time Of year large f1ocks OF ducks
are to be seen on the river about Wash
ington, and the hunters are now expect
ing their arrival, and are looking for
some good sport.
Wild geese are also making their APP
pearance ON the river in the vicinity of

RAISING SUNKEN SLOOP.
Wreckers Meeting With Success in
Saving the Mildred D.

The efforts being made to raise the lit
tie power sloop Mildred D. from the bot
tom Of the river at the lower end of the
harbor is meeting. it is said. with sue
cess. Saturday chains were passed under
the vessel and one of the large holsters
owned at Georgetown was employed to
lift the vessel and work her into deep
water. This morning, it was stated. the
vessel was on the edge Of the flats, and
by tonight she will probably be in position
for the men to locate and stop the leaks
and pump the little craft out. The boat
belonging to Thomas Murray of Alexan-
dria. which sank while being used to
raise the Mildred D., will also be raised
by the holster.
The Mildred D. was on her way into
the harbor about ten days ago with 300
bushels of oysters aboard when she was
cut through by the new ice and sank.
Capt. Oliver and his men had to Jump
overheard to keep from going down with
the vessel. 1t is thought that the oysters
aboard the vessel will be unfit for use. 1t
is stated that pair Of trousers in which
Capt. Oliver had about SO in bills have
been washed from the cabin and. lost.

The socialist city attorney had declared
the measure unconstitutional, but the So

The council adopted seventeen resolu-
tons asking for the passage by the leg

quests, want the authority to erect mu-
