CITY COUNCIL NOTES.

The council unanimously adopted the
recommendation of the harbor commit
zee that the east bank of the river
rom Park street to st. Clair street be
Bocked. This action has become inn
,erative if the costly channel in the
lpper river is to be saved from filling
lp from caving of the bank which rises
(heer from the water at this point.
rhe big coal bearers in going to the
upper Reiss docks churn up whirl-
bool which eats into the bank and pre-
tipitates earth into the channel.
The 500 line was also ordered to
lock some neighboring river front lots
between the high bank and the coal
locks.
Herman Meyers lot will probably be
purchased by the city and added to St.
clair street The lot has less than ~
eet street frontage and 24O feet river
'front.' and the cost of enforced docking
% private owner would be contsca-
jory.
The city wants man to handle the
Park street ferry and offers to pay $50
per month. Except for short time
each day the duties consist of viewing
the surrounding landscape.
Chief Kratz asked for three new
horses and was authorized to get prices

Says the Philadelphia Press: The
city department of public health gives
timely and needed warning to those
leaving the city for their vacations to
avoid places where there are many
flies. Those who follow this advice
will avoid places which are uncleanly
which allow food and garbage to be
so exposed as to attract and feed the
flies. They will avoid places where
stables and dwellings are in near vi
cinity, as the exposed manure is the
choice breeding place of thousands
and even millions of flies. In other
words, to avoid disease-conveying flies
avoid places where they permit flies
to breed and feed. Formerly the con-
ditions which multiply flies and the
flies themselves were considered OBJ
jectionable but endurable. Now the
patient liberation of flies is known to
be needless trifiing with the health
and life of human beings. Disease
germs are for the most part innocu-
Gus to man, until through some con-
yenient medium they are conveyed to
his system. This puryeyor of disease
is the fly. His guilt has been proved
to demonstration. His capacity for
carrying on his feet from foul and pu-
crescent sources the bacteria Of dis
ease has been recorded by gelatin
plates on which he has been made to
alight and have proven his quit.
