Washington, August 10.-Startling

for the serious consideration that is
now being given to the most trif1ing

An Englishman in Calcutta picked
up in the streets a small package d
blue prints, showing every detail Of
the defenses of Cornegidor Island, the
main stronghold of the United States
in the Philippines. The prints were
not copies of any drawings or charts
but were evidently the result of Z
careful and deliberate investigation
of the official and confidential records
of the United States. The existence
of the blue prints made it evident
that there were other copies neXist-

OBJECTION MADE
To THE Plan FOR
new SEWERS
BROOLYN HEIGHTS AFFECTED
Would Have Sewerage Carried
to MuCkaIGe

Voicing what is said to be the SEN
timent of other property-holders and
residents in Brooklyn Heights, Mrs.
Leila D. Stapleton yesterday filed with
the clerk of council a formal protest
against the plan proposed by the city
of emptying additional sewers into
Town Creek. The objection made, as
stated in the protest, is that the flow
of water through the creek is insult
fcient to properly carry away the sew
age thus added to the stream, there
by constituting a menace to public
health in that section Of the city.
While no injunction is prayed in
the pape- filed with the city clerk yes
tcrday, the tone of the document leads
to the natural inference that such a
legal paper might be forthcoming IN
event Council should not take cogniz-
ance of the protest made by the cit
liens of Brooklyn Heights. Though
there was only one signature to the
protest filed yesterday, it is under
srCod that other residents of that
section will file similar papers with
the city clerk prior to the regular
session of Council next Monday night,
at which time consideration will be
given to all the protests as a whole.
Under the present arrangement the
sewage that has an outlet in Town
Creek is not Objectionable. 1t is con-
templated, however, to give an out
let to the sewage from the proposed
eastern and northern extensions OF
the sewerage system, when the work
now under way shall have been con-
pleted. 1t is to the disposition of this
additional sewage by means of Town
Creek as an outlet to which objection
is made on the ground that Town
Creek would then virtually become an
open sewer itself, the shallow flow
of water and the slight grade of the
creek bed making impossible an ade-
Quate drainage. Technically, objec-
ton is made, also, that work upon the
installation of additional sewers has
been begun on the land owned by
Mrs. Stapleton without gaining per-
mission from the owner
All the sewers north of Lamar
street under the present arrangement
for sewer disposal empty into Town
Creek near the Central Railway sta
ton, while all sewers south of La
mar street enter into Muckalee
Creek. The request is made in the
protest now on file in the clerks of-
fl that all sewers empty into Muck
alec. The only objection to this plan
that has been expressed is that the
expense of conducting the sewage from
the northern section of the system into
Muckalee Creek would be prohibi-
tive.

THE END OF TUBERCULOSIS
The Physieian's Responsibility.

By DR. HENRY L. K SHAW.
Fifteen years ago 1t was un-
safe to drink the Albany water.
The doctors of the city educated
and agitated public opinion 50
that a scientific filtration plant
was constructed, and today ty-
phoid fever is practically un-
known. So with the great prob
lem of tuberculosis which we
are all striving SO hard to solve.
The public is fast being educat-
ed, and there Is a most deter
mined and commendable effort
on the part Of all classes and
professions to stamp out the dis
ease as effectively as smallpox
was stamped out The chief re-
sponsibility, however, rests upon
the physician. and he is a traitor
to himself and to the noblest Of
professions If he shirks his duty
In the slightest. The consensus
of opinion among the students
of this subject is that prompt
notification of each case to the
proper authorities, as In the case
of other communicable and In
fectious diseases. is essential in
the control of tuberculosis.

SAYINGS OF MARK TWAIN.
Bright Things That Are Rarely Cred

Bright Things That Are Rarely Cred
tied to the liumorist.
There has been complaint that every
good story gets accredited to Mark
Twain without his having really de-
served it, but Professor Archibald
Henderson in his book Mark Twain"
points out that actually many of the
best known common sayings first Gre
ated by Mark Twain are very rarely
credited to him. His sayings in
"Pudd'nhead Wilson's Calendar" such
as 1.-THE caulifower is nothing but cab
bage with a college education are
generally known as written by, Mark
Twain, but there are others of which
this is not true.
Some of his best sayings are apropos
of the cheerful custom of lying-for
instance: Truth is our most valuable
possession. Let US economic it"
Never tell a lie-except for practice"
is not so well known as the more popu-
lar when in doubt tell the truth"
Professor Henderson comments that
Of the latter maxim Mark Twain de-
clared that he never expected it to
be applied to himself. 1t was foi
other people. When he was in doubt
himself he used sagacity. Perhaps his
best summary is: Never waste lie!
You can't tell when you may need it."
A catchword emanating from Mark
Twain is, BE virtuous and you will
be eccentric" Another is that "there
isn't a parallel Of latitude but thinks
! it would have been the equator IL II
had kdd its rights" There is some
thing peculiarly American in his warn.
