Strange Craft.

About the strangest craft that in
many a day has entered the port or
New York. where freak craft are
not uncommon, was a Portuguese
tramp steamer which anne up from
the West Indies with a cargo Of
bananas. Rampaging around the deck
innocent or rope or tather. was a
huge bull. but the Portuguese sail
.ors did not seem to mind him.
Wondering at will In and out OF
tine galley ard through The dining
room were several fat pigs. which
grunted comfortably and did not seem
in the least awed by New York's
imposing skyline.
A flock OF geese and a drove OF
chickens also meandered about the
decks. 1t was reported that one sail
or was drowned coming up the coast
and the captain ponchalantly re-
marked that the bull must have run
him of the deck.
But the barnyard setting was not
the strangest part about the tramp.
On n side OF her bow was the name
Fortuna. while on the other side ap-
reared the name Norwich. Sons OF
her boats carried q name and sone
the other. 1t was learned that she
originally was the Norwich, a Bri-
fish boat, and was recently bought
by a Portuguese company. which
changed her name, but ran out OF
paint before all the changes were
made.-Houston Chronicle.

the use OF a meter and that the COM

ter ~ one is demanded without
charge Of any kind to the consumer,
either for the meter or for rental
for its use. The case came up from
Belllngham, where a firm complained

of installing a meter that il would

the school and park boards. The new
commission would therefore result in
a division Of authority, with a good
chance for friction.
THE recreation and social GEN.
ter problem presents two salient fea-
lures. First il is fundamentally to
a large extent an educational prob
lem. Second, 1t requires a large ad-
m~inistration. to which the only pre-
sent analogy in our cities Is the pub
lie school department. This depart
ment having both the functional
and administrative requirements,
would seem to be the logical agency
undertake systematic public rec
reation movement. The school plant
itself as well as the organization
of the department can readily be so
modified as to serve the new uses. II
is only necessary to add to the or
ganization a responsible supervisor
recreation and provide adequate
funds.
Cooperation with other boards
having charges of recreation facili-
ties can be encouraged by permits
sive legislation, and brought about
oy joint committees representing the
various boards"
