PUBLIC OPINION AGAINST SINGLE DISTRICT

Editor of the Farmer:
 Sfr1The Alderman MacFayden res 1 olutfon which, we think, is slated for next Monday evening, might wen pass for a joke of the first water were 1t not for its more serious aspect. No body but a high class hunorist would propose laying a tax for sewer ser vice, police and fire protection, gar bage collection, graded streets, gas and water supply, etc, on sections wholly destitute of such service George the Thirds tax on tea would seem an inconsiderable trife in com parison.
 I have in mind, just now, some 20 or more cottages which the late Alex ander Leverty induced their present owners to build on his tract some dis tance from Boston avenue in the East End. None of the improvements aI- luded to exist there now, or will exist in all probability during the lives of the present generation.
 What a travesty of justice to re- quire these gentlemen to pay, year after year, for what they do not and canot have!
 Them again. there is the case of MT. Charles Beach of the former Beach Bros. ice firm. He is seeking to ex- ploit for dwelling purposes a tract of
 
 avenues. No amount of wire pulling effort on his part serves to bring him a sewer service from the city. To render the dozen or so cottages which he has built serviceable and habitabIe. he has had to construct at a large expense a private sewer; to make his own streets, and take his own risks and expense on fire water and police protection. MacFayden's little joker taxing him for all of these after re- fusfng to supply any of them would be very humorous indeed Then there are hundreds of individual lot owners waiting to build. These examples of the benefcent character of the Mac Fayden proposition are in my own inn mediate neighborhood but could doubtless be readily duplicated in other sections.
 The taxation of the entire outlying unimproved section for city improve ments which do not exist. and can not, for the present be had, would be equally unjustifiable and uncalled for. If at any time changing conditions make it desirable to alter the existing district lines, there would seem to be nothing intricate about the way in which it should be done, viz. where city improvements-sewe water, gas, fire and police protection are had extend the municipal line to cover the same.

PIANO PLAYING CURES
 NERVOUSNESS
President of American Society oi Medical Sociology Declares Piano Playing the Best Cure and
 Preventive

pr. William J. Robinson, New York lCity. editor of several medical publi-
 cations and President of the Ameri-
 can Society of Medical Sociology,
 stated the other day that piano play ing was one of the best cures for
 nervousness; in fact, real proven ! tive
 i David did excellent work when he soothed SauIs murderous propensities with the aid of selections on the harp, but more good would have been ac7 complained if he could have prevail him and play the harp himself. The harp, however, is not the ideal instrument when it comes to relieving q mans nervousness Music as a therapeutic adjuvant is looked upon more and more favorably by medical l authorities.
 Looking over some statistical data | relative to insane asylums, I noticed | that many institutions have been in- I stalling pianos in their wards. St. Lawrence Asylum. in Ogdensburg, N. IT., has eight pianos in constant use. | There are fourteen of those instru- ments in the Buffalo State Hospital; the Overbrook Asylum in Newark purchased fifteen recently; 1T doubt" pr Robinson added whether there ! is single institution for the insane ! Tn the United States which is not provided with one or more pianos for the use of patients
 In a report from Dr. F. c. Dent, Superintendent of the Manhattan State Hospital, on Wards Island, I found the following observations made after trying the effect of piano music on patients:
 1st- Pulse, respiration and bodily
 temperature usually increased in ma jority of cases.
 2d. Bodily nutition greatly improv- ed in nearly all cases.
 3d- The patients were less dis . turbed through the night.
 It is easy to understand how play ing on piano benefits 8 nervous per- son. Piano playing is in itself an ex- cellent musical exercise, the pIayins, of a short selection being the euufvaI- ent of dfsplacing a tons weight
 One of the most frequent symptoms of nervousness is, as you know, un- conscious motions of the fingers hands. wrists, arms and shoulders The nervous individual wants 10 handle objects about him, sometimes filings them on the floor. Not infre- quently he endeavors to soothe his nervous system by smoking or drink ing.
 In such a case, piano playing is one of the remedies at hand. Piano play ing exercises the eyes, the ears, the hands and arms;e even that fidgety feeling about ones feet is relieved 10

FIND STOLEN BOOTY CACHED
IN HANNAH CREEK CAVE
CONFESSES MAKING BIG HAUL

Fifteen hundred dollars worth of
revolvers. guns, cutlery, blankets,
ammunition and novelties and valu-
able script money, stolen six weeks
ago from the Union Trading company
Mt Oiathc. were discovered hidden
carefully in cachc-cave near Kan
nah creek this morning, about four
miles from Whitewater, and 20
miles from Grand Junction, and the
Montrose officers who are handling
the case were lead to the hiding place
by the self-confessed thief. Mike
Murphy. who spent last night in the
Mesa county jail.
The Officers came down yesterday
from Montrose with the man who was
caught at MOntrose last week, to To-
cate the loot. Murphy, having prom
ised them he would show them where
he and his confederates placed the
valuable haul they made. Under
sheriff Baxter left early this morning
with his charge, ard after searching
the bills for several hours, the men
found the place.
The booty was hidden in a very OBJ

cred with dirt to avoid any suspicion
of tampering. 1t is probable that
the goods would never have been re-
covered unless Murphy had taken the
officers to the place. There were a
dozen revolvers of different makes
and sizes, a large quantity of ammu-
milton. blankets, robes, cutlery and
miscellaneous articles.
Robbery a Daring One.
The robbery was one of the most
daring ever perpretrated in Mont
rose county. Murphy has admitted
that he had confederates in the rob-
berry, but refuses to peach on his
pals. How this quantity of goods
could be taken such distance with
out detection is a wonder and why
the confederates didn't take some
of the articles is not known. 1t is
probable that some of the articles
have been used. although Murphy
stated that the cache had not been
disturbed since the night he hid the
goods.

His time was not secured, but it was
exceedingly fast V. Stong was sec
ond in this race.
The first mentioned was for young
sters under a hundred pounds and
the time made by Eastman was con-
sidered very good. The run was
to Bald Top, across the river and
back. He returned in good condi-
tion, although Stanley Birdsall was
probably in the best wind and was
crowding the winner close at the end
of the course.
The whole affair was arranged by
Director E. J. Robertson of the Y. NJ.
