STREET PLANNING
OF AID TO TOWNS
Busy Communities Without Good
ThOrOughtares.
WIDE ONES ARE NEEDED.

Power Over Establishment and Main
tenance of Streets Should Be Vested
In Responsible Hands-No Harm In
Making Them Attractive.
1t is generally agreed that the
healthy. progressive development of a
city or town depends primarily on the
opportunities offered by the street sys.
tenn for unlimited and untrammeled
circulation. and the experience of all
large industrial cities has been that the
demand for better and greater facili-
ties for such circulation is increasing
more rapidly than means for supply
ing 1t can be found; therefore the
wise determination of street widths is
one of the most important of the prac
teal and economic problems of city
planning and should be subjected to
much closer study than has heretofore
been the practice Of town planners.
says A. B Haldeman, a Philadelphia
engineer.
The failure of streets in the busiest
sections of large industrial cities to
provide adequate facilities for general
circulation and the wastefulness of
unused street areas in other sections
of the same communities are too well
known to need any lengthy comment.
The future requirement of a street
is dark mystery which only time will

A man who had stopped at stand
in Fulton market to buy a fresh fish
pointed his finger at fish that pleased
his fancy, being about two feet long
and weighing about five pounds.
"That looks like nice fish to me-"
he said, whereupon the dealer picked
the fish up to put it on the scale.
The moment he picked it up the fish
began to wriggle. and the next mo-
ment it had slipped out Of the dealers
grasp and fallen on the sidewalk.
AS the fish went down the customer
turned to the stand and picked out
another. which the dealer picked up,
and this fish stayed quiet until 1t had
been put on the scale, but the instant
it touched it it began to flop vigorously
and finally Topped itself out Of the
scale pan, to fall on the stand below.
Goldfish these two lively and vigor-
Gus fish were, the cod being fish that
will live out of the water three or four
hours. a good deal longer than most
fish. At Fulton market live cod can
almost always be found. The dealers
keep their stock in fish cars In the
East river, just across South street.
and for retail trade bring over maybe
fifty or a hundred pounds at a clip,
enough to last half an hour or an
hour, and when the stock runs low
they bring over another lot, fresh out
Of the fish car.
The cod, though a salt water fish,
will live for hours In fresh water. An
angler who goes occasionally to the
fishing banks tells of carrying home a
Goldfish caught in the afternoon and
placing it in a bathtub, to find 1t alive
the next morning.-New York Sun.

GIaring Effrontery.

Uncle Absolom Ashby was much
given to retailing old and hack
neyed jokes. An acquaintance of
his, thinking to cure him of his
practice, one day gave him a copy of
"Joe Miller's Jest Book" with the
remark that he 'might find some
thing new in it"
The next time he met the old gen.
tleman he asked him, ''Well, uncle,
what do you think of that book |
gave you the other day?"
'I don't know who that ere Joe
Miller is" Indignantly responded
Uncle Absolom, ''but do know
he's thief. He's got hold of lot
of my best stories and printed 'em,

A Clock of 1870.

An interesting specimen of a long
clock, made in 1890, is owned by a
gentleman at Lutterworth. It has
an oval face, hand which points to
the days of the week, completing
the round in seven days; one which
shows the true dead beat and an
other which points to the chimes
and quarters. On the upper part of
the clock is small orchestra, which
includes a flute, a cello and two
violins and boy and girl in addi-
ton to three singers. The hours
and the quarters are struck, and ev-
cry three hours a tune is played
"three times over either on the bells
alone, the lyricord or on both to-
gether," while the three figures beat
time and the boy and girl dance to
the music. Westminster Gazette.

COUNTIES WANT POWER
TO BUILD SANITORIA
Five Boards of Supervisors
Ready to Erect Hospitals
When State Gives Authority

Madison, Wis.,-Five counties
in the state are awaiting the
action of the legislature relative
to their right to erect sanitoria
for the care of tuberculosis
patients. At present there is no
law giving them the authority to
erect and maintain such instii-
buttons.
The Youmans bill, 693 A.. now
before the legislature, gives this
necessary authority and also
makes provision for the pay ment
by the state to counties of 80 per
week per patient, with a limit of
$40, 900 per year.
Winnebago, Lacrosse, Mara
thon, EauClaire and Kenosha
counties are contemplating the
erection of such institutions out
have been unable to take the
first steps. Lacrosse county
appropriated $4,000, Marathon's
county board favorably consid-
cred the matter as have the
boards of EauClaire and Winnie
bago counties. Kenosha and
Racine counties are contemplate
ing joining in the erection of such
an institution.
While there has been no open
opposition to the bill at Madison
it is necessary to have more
general support to obtain the
passage of the bill. Through
out the state those who are in
terested in the white plague
fight are writingto their senator's
and assemblymen. urging it's
passage.
It is pointed out to the legisla-
tors that there is no place in the
state to which advanced cases
may be sent; that it is useless to
attempt to care for incipient
cases when advanced cases are
continually spreading the di-
sease and making patients fast
er than the state sanatorium for
incipients at Wales can, with it's
limited Accommodations, care for
durable cases.
