NEW YORK LARGEST DEBTOR

Washington, d. c., Aug. 6.-The
Bureau of Census has issued a state
ment of the per capita Indebtedness
of cities for the year 1908. There
are included returns from 1853 cities,
which report a total Indebtedness of
$1,71S,000,OOO, of which amount
1854, 100000, or 1913 per cent. is
credited to New York alone. The
statement says:
New York has more than seven
times the Indebtedness of any other
city, and more than one-half of the
total of the 29 largest cities of the
country. The per capita net debt of
New York City was $157.74, and the
only other cities having a per capita
net Indebtedness of over 500 were
Cincinnati, $12S.61; Boston, $119.4S;
Galveston, $113.07; Portland, Maine,
Pueblo, Colo, $1O4.61, and Pawtuck-
ct, r. l., $103.7S. OF the cities of
over 100000 estimated population
the city having the smallest per cap
tia net debt was Detroit, $26.O2. OF
the cities having a population of
from 100000 to 100000 those with
the smallest per capita net debt were
Indianapolis, STAB, and Scranton,
$19.S2. OF the cities having from
10000 to 100000 population, those
having the smallest per capita net
debt were Joplin, $3.50; Erie, $1O.SS;
Johnstown,$ 11.1O; Newcastle, $12.45;
Terre Haute. $12.56; Davenport,
$14.16, and Peoria, S14.59."
In explanation, the statement
says;
THE Indebtedness of cities is evil
denced by such forms of debt obliga-
lions as general bonds, special as
.sessment bonds, outstanding war
rants, mortgages on real property
and outstanding judgments. The
net debt is the same as the gross
debt, less the sinking fund assets
For purposes of comparison the net
Indebtedness is of much more signif-
canoe than the gross Indebtedness.
The increase in the net debt for
the fiscal year 1908 was S1S5,S77,-
$50, as compared with an increase
for 1907 of $12O,93O,631, more than
three-fourths of which increase is
credited to the 16 largest cities, and
nearly one-half of which is credited
to New York City.
The report states that in any dis
cussion of Indebtedness it should be
remembered that the value of public
improvements, and especially the
amounts expended on public service
enterprises, should be taken into
consideration. Many cities own their
waterworks, some their lighting
plants, and a considerable proportion
of the Indebtedness of such cities
may have been incurred in the pur-
chase of construction of such
plants. Thus in New York City 36.9
per cent. of the total debt, a much
larger percentage than that for most
cities, has been issued for the acqui-
sition and extension of such public
service enterprises as the water sup
ply system, toll bridges, &C., which
enterprises are self-supporting.

the young lady who committed sui
eide Wednesday morning by drown
ing in the Ohio river at the foot of
Pearl street, one block east of the
old water works, greensboro.
Mr.. ]. w. Chambliss, of Fordsville,
father of the unfortunate girl, ar
rived in the city Wednesday night,
and was almost heart-broken when
told that his daughter had commit
ted suicide.
After hasty consultation with his
friends II was decided to begin a
search for the body. Will Norris and
Will Johnson, two we'll known fish
ermen, were employed by Mr.. Chamb-
liss to dynamite the river, and four
charges of dynamite were exploded
in the river, but seemingly without
any effect, as no trace of the body
could be found. The fishermen also
dragged the river, but to no avail.
At the point where Miss Chambilss
stepped off there is reef, which is
said to be fully 80 feet deep, and
the current is very swift. 1t is not
thought that the body is in that
neighborhood. and when found, will
be some distance west of the city.
Mr.. Chambliss has offered a re-
ward of $25 for the recovery of the
body, and all the fishermen below the
city have been notified to be on the
lookout.
There are no new developments as
to the cause of Miss Chambliss' sui
eide, other than the theory as given
in the Inquirer of Wednesday. The
fact that she had been i'll caused her
friends to believe that she had grown
Respondent, and while in a state of
temporary insanity, committed the
rash act
Body Recovered.
LATEST--The greensboro Inquir-
err of Friday says:
The body of Miss Mabel Chambliss,
the young lady who committed sui
eide by drowning in the Ohio river
Wednesday, was found about $3.50
o'clock this morning by Thomas Neg
ley, a colored fisherman.
Negley was on the lookout for Miss
Chambliss' body, and while running
some trot-lines between Lewis and
Daviess streets, he noticed the body
of a human appear on the top of the
water, and begin floating. This was
in front of the Griffith Elevator COM
pany, about 60 feet from the river
bank. Negley dropped his lines and
rowed to the body, and on discover
ing that it was a woman, he knew
that it was the body of Miss Chamb-
liss, which was carried to the foot of
st. Ann street, where it was placed
on the bank. Coroner Pennington
and the relatives of the young lady
were at once notified. The father of
the young lady soon arrived, and
while the hands and face were badly
swollen, he identified the body as be-
ing that of his daughter.
Coroner Pennington held an in
quest and the jury returned YER
dict that Miss Chambliss committed
suicide by drowning in the Ohio
river.
Miss Chambliss was dressed in a
white shirt waist, with a black skirt,
and her hair was hanging down. Her
hands and face were badly swollen,
and there was a bruised place on her
forehead and shoulder. 1t is thought
that these bruised places might have
resulted from a charge of dynamite,
as the parties having the work in
charge were in close proximity to
where the body rose to the surface.

With a Grain Of Salt.

The earliest record of the saying
with il grain of salt" dates back to the
year 63 B. c.. when the great Pompey
entered the palace of Mithridates and
discovered among his private papers
the description of an antidote against
poisons of all sorts. which was COM
posed of pounded herbs. These, ac-
cording to the recipe. were to be taken
with grain Of salt. Whether this
was meant seriously or as warning
sarcasm is not known. but thenceforth
it became the custom to say that
doubtful preparations should be taken
with grain off, salt. From this the
meaning got transferred to sayings Of
doubtful truth. Attic SALT was a
Greek synonym for wit or penetration,
and the Latin word "sal'' had some
what Of the same meaning. 1t is thus
easy to see how the saying 'cum
grano sails" could have come to mean
the necessity Of accepting doubtful or
suspicious statements with grain of
salt"

Cause of. Twiliaht.

Twilight is phenomenon caused by
atmospheric refraction. When the sun
gets below the horizon we are not i'm
mediately plunged into the darkness of
night. Although the sun is below our
horizon, rays of solar light are bent or
refracted by the terrestrial atmosphere
and continue to furnish some slight
Illumination. The process continues
with diminishing intensity until the
sun is so far below the horizon that
the refracting power of the atmos-
phere is no longer able to bend the
rays enough to produce a visible ef-
feet The time after sunset that the
sun reaches such a position varies with
the latitude of the place. There is less
twilight at the tropic zone than at the
temperate or frigid zone. This is due
to less time taken by the suns rays to
pass through the atmosphere, at the
tropic zone the suns rays being per-
pendicular and at the temperate and
frigid zones oblique.-New York Amer

There were 253 wood-pulp mills
in operation during 1909 in the
United States as against Isl in 1908.
The consumption of pulp wood in
these mills in 1909 was 100000
cords as against 3.347, 900 cords the
year before. There is decided de-
crease in the highest priced pulp
wood, viz. spruce. There has been
a slight decrease in hemlock and in
creases in balsam, white fir and
several hard woods heretofore little
used as pulp material. The increase
in cost of pulp wood is shown by the
statement that the total consumption
in 1909, though exceeding that of
1907 by less than 10000 cords, cost
over 100000 more.
