Los Angeles Reform.

The reform administration of Los Angeles seems to be tarred with the stick of "practicar' politics. The chief of police, has been dismissed from office, following his refusal to use the police department for the benefit of the -'reformers." He made this statement on retiring:
 T was told that if l would use all my influence as head of the depart ment for the good government forces in the coming county campaign, could retain my position as head of the de- pertinent"
 Really good government" in cities will never come until the police de- partment. the fire department, and the street department are divorced absolutely from politics. For en- ployes of these departments to engage in politics is to wrong the community they are paid to serve, and their ac- tivity in politics. instead of being a requisite, should be cause for per emptory dismissal from office.
 A party in control of city, state, or the nation, serves party interest best when it serves the people best: but even reformers. like other classes of politicians, are, slow to learn this fundamental principle of party sue cess.

ambitions. At his works at West Orange, New Jersey, he ran street car equipped with his newest battery the other day, and the brief test was satisfactory test under service conditions is to be made in New York, shortly. Speaking of his latest pro- duetion, Mir. Edison said: Tive found what I wanted. Now we'll see wheth- CT it will be used. The, new car is, absolutely practical for commercial purposes. Whereas the ordinary de- preciation of a storage battery is so per cent, l have reduced it in the new motor to 15 per cent"
 The question of depreciation is the one real difficulty with storage bat teries. The efficiency of the battery automobiles, for example, batteries are produced now which run 125 miles on a single charge But the battery lasts little more than a year As Mir. Edi- son points out, the yearly deprecia- tion is estimated at so per cent. The necessity of buying new batteries from time to time makes the electric ve- hicle a costly luxury. If Mir. Edison has brought the depreciation down to 15 per cent-if, in other words. his new battery will last six years-it will come into instant competition with the trolley for moving street cars. and for automobiles and all forms of street traffic it will be the favorite power.

The Edison Battery.

One of the most interesting ques- tions in the industrial world is wheth- CT MT Edison will eventually succeed in producing a perfect storage bat tery. For at least ten years he has devoted most of his time to the stor- age battery problem. In the earlier stages of his experiments he became convinced more than once that his goal was accomplished, but something developed each time to defeat him. His premature announcements of sue cess have tended to make the public skeptical, but he has the best wishes of all the world. Speaking of his wearisome experiments. he frankly says that he has learned 5000 ways in which the storage battery should not be made"
 There seems, however. to be good ground for hoping that he is nearing success, which, if it comes. will be the consummation of one of his life

A MODEL MEXICAN TOWN.

Alamos, in the state of Sonora, Mexico. is known to Americans chief ly because of its having given to the great republic of Mexico a most dis tinguished official in the person of the Hon. Ramon Corral vice president of Mexico. but the little city has many other claims for national promi- hence, and in addition to the great ness and energy of its citizens in pushing forward to greatness as a mining center.
 Vice President Corral was not born in ,Alanos. but in the little town of Mercedes. a few kilometers east, all though Alamos claims the honor in a general way. It is said of Alamos. with it's five or six thousand indus trious and thrifty people. that no less than ten men. and perhaps nine, are worth from s50.000 upwards. and that it's men and women average higher in intelligence and education than any other city in the republic. Its officials are not only men of edu- cation and refinement, but are pro- gressive.

The Young Bachelor TeIephoned for % Cranberry Information and Got It.

If you only have nerve and good luck" remarked young man who lives with three other college grads in an uptown flat. leading a bach elor existence is easy in New York. Simply use a telephone when you are stuck for domestic Knowledge.
 "On New Years day l received a large box of delicacies from my home out west. There were all sorts of home cooked foods and a couple of fine young turkeys. The folks sent quart of cranberries uncooked, We wanted to make a sauce to eat with the turkey, but we didn't know the recipe.
 After a lengthy discussion l de- cided to call some one up by tele phone and ask how it was done. I didn't know any domestically inclined person, so l opened the. telephone di rectory at random. I selected name. When the woman answered l told her that I wanted to know how to make cranberry sauce.
 At first she thought l was try ing to jolly her. but I assured her that it was a serious matter. Well, had our sauce. the finest I, ever tasted. Since that day I've. called her several times for information of that sort She has been very obliging. even if she doesn't know me from Adam.
 "Try it yourself some time.' said the bachelor. Its a great scheme. - New York Sun.

DREAMER, SAY

Dreamer, say. will you dream for me A wild. sweet dream of a foreign
 land,
 With lips of coral and silver land {; Where warm winds loll on the shady
 deeps, Or lave themselves in the fearful
 mist The great wild wave of the breaker
 weeps Ger crags of opal and amethysts? Dreamer. say. will you dream a
 dream Of tropic shades in the land of
 shine, Where the lily leans OCT an amber
 stream That flows like a Till of wasted
 wine Where the palm trees lifting their
 shields of green Pary the shafts of the Indian sun Whose splintering vengeance falls be-
 tween The reeds below where the waters
 run? Dreamer. say. will you dream of love, That lives in. a land of sweet per
 fume Where the stars drip down from the
 skies above In the molten spatters of bud and
 bloom? Where never the weary eyes are met, And never a sob in the balmy air, And only the laugh of the paroquet Breaks the sleep of the silence
