NAMED INSPECTOR

Mrs. Neenah G. Smith to Investigate
tuberculosis Cases-other
Appointments.

Several appointments in various depart
ments of the District service were made
yesterday afternoon by the Commits
sioners.
Upon the Recommendation of DR.. Will
lam c. woodward, Dirtrict health officer,
Mrs. Neenah G. Smith was appointed in
spector in the contagious disease service
at a salary of $3.50 per diem. Mrs. Smith
will be assigned to conduct an investiga-
tion to determine the extent to which
the tuberculosis register Of the health de-
partment fails to represent existing CON-
ditions. 1t is believed that many cases OF
the disease are recorded on the books Of
the ONCE, which have been disposed of
by death, recovery, or removal.
OF the appropriation of $4,000 for the
payment of personal services in the con-
tagious disease service, s7,5S3.7S remains
unexpended. This condition arises from
the fact that communicable diseases
have not been unusually prevalent during
the current fiscal year.
B. ]. Harbin was appointed engineer
to operate the steam travelling crane at
the District sand wharf, with compen-
sation at the rate OF 50 per diem. The
appointment was made on the recon-
mendation CT NJ. C. Hargrove, District

WAR AGAINST WOOD PIGEON.

Naturalists in this country have
called attention frequently to the al
most complete extinction of the wood
pigeon. The conditions seem to be
the opposite in Devonshire, England,
where the birds are so numerous as
to be a great pest to farmers. War
was recently declared on them, and
six thousand residents, according to
the London Express, enlisted in a
one-day shotgun crusade to reduce
the nuisance. Says the Express ;
''The battlefield covered the whole
county. In every one of its five hum
dren or six hundred parishes farm
ers, gamekeepers, hunting men and
other sportsmen joined forces against
the agriculturists' enemy. It is esti-
mated that six thousand men en-
gagged in reducing the plague"

NEW USE FOR ELECTRICITY
Current Is Now Being Utilized for the
PURPOSE Of Securing Larger
Chickens

At chicken farm near London q
scientific expert is conducting the ex-
pertinent of rearing chickens by cleo
tricity, the object being to raise
larger birds. High frequency cleo
tricity is used. AS this is the kind
used in wireless, it happens that
what sounds at first like mad mes
sages is being widely distributed to
the perplexity of regular stations
and numerous amateur operators.
The electrified chickens are treated,
it is said, with about five thousand
volts, the current alternating from
positive to negative ten thousand
times. a second. zone effect" says
the experimenter, "seems to have
been to make the electrified chickens
pugnacious, pickering among them
selves to a reprehensible extent, the
unelectrifed ones remaining perfect
ly placid. The reason is probably
that this exuberance of spirit is the
result of the effect of the electrity
on the blood, which possibly has been
made to flow more freely through
the brain, and, of course, the other
organs as well. 1t appears to be
something like feeding them with
oxygen, but without any ill after eff
fects."
The electricity is similar to that
used in wireless telegraphy and the
chickens do not feel it any more than
do wireless operators The message
sent out by the chicken electrifying
installation is a continuous buzzing
very insistent in tone and seeming
to demand urgent attention.

GARAGE is NOT A STABLE
Decision Handed Down by MaSsaohv-
setts Court 10 Matter Of Como
ImportanoO.

In Massachusetts, the supreme
court has held that q garage is not
stable in the meaning of this term
in realty restrictions. This iS = just
decision which recognizes changes
in life, custom and habits and acts
on them.
An improvement company had
sold land subject to the familiar re-
striction that "no stable, private or
otherwise, shall ever be erected or
maintained on any portions" Of the
land sold. The court decided that .
stable" in such a restriction in
volved "the presence of domestic ana
imals, like horses and cattle" If
these were absent the building, the
court held, was not STABLE" even
if the dictionary defines a garage as
"stable for motor cars"
The occupants of the next lot dis
liked garage as much as a stable.
Hence the action. In its bearing on
realty restrictions in other states,
this is an important decision and it
comes from a court whose findings
are heard with respect by the bench
in all states.
