succeeded Others made successful ef-

tively stated That some OF them did

stiff in architectural design, are spa
cious and impressive.
Peoples Food Carefully Supervised.
The German lives much in the
open air. We find the gardens in the
modern cities, even In weather that
seems unreasonable, thronged. There
is much drinking Of beer, but little
boisterousness. The German is care
full though comprehensive In his eat
ing. The German city provides mu-
nicipal slaughter houses, where meat
is prepared for sale under strict regu-
lation against faint, open air and
covered market halls, where fresh veg
etables, fish, poultry and other food
products are sold; and has a ceaseless
supervision of bakeries, diaries and
breweriee. In Berlin and some other
cities the meat from the slaughter
house is stamped, "unbednigt tang
lich"-free of all possible faint The
city arranges for the sale Of other
meat, not thus free from faint, but
which can be used for food without
danger to health, at municipal estab-
lishments called the Fret Banke,"
where it Is bought at low prices and
Mt certain fixed hours by the poor.
The German loves music and the
theater and so the German city pro-
vides municipal opera houses where
the best artists may be heard, often
at prices within the reach of the poor
est-paid laborer
Cities Deal in Real Estate.
The German city provides public
baths and disinfecting establishments.
1t owns its own street cars. Berlin
is a notable example but in Berlin
a heavy tax on the gross receipts of
the street-car system Is levied. 1t
buys and holds tracts of land In and
adjacent to the city for the construc-
ton of houses for business or resi-
dence purposes, sells or leases this
land and thus controls the growth and
development of the city itself. This
last function of the German city is
responsible for much of the best re-
suits Of the municipal town planning
and house planning In the empire.
These are some features of the Ger

OIL and Gas From Bricks.

Recent experimenting In the Peter
borough (England) brlckyards with a
patented process for extracting oil
ammonia, and gas from burning bricks
Is likely to have an important com.
mercial significance. All bricks made
from the Oxford clay in the neighbor-
hood of Peterborough burn of them
selves In the kiln, because of the BIZ
luminous matter they contain, and
that bituminous matter yields oil, gas,
and ammonia on heating in a retort
out of contact with the air.
Patents have been granted to an ex-
scholar from the Cathedral grammar
school. Mr.. G.. p. Crowden. who has
Invented an apparatus to modify the
present brick-kilns, so that the waste
heat from the burning bricks may b
used for heating the retorts, and fur
Their, that the green bricks themselves
may be retorted, and the oil, gas, and
the ammonia recovered from them
The results are said to be most aston
shing.

sands. Each class has, however, the
same voting strength. This gives, of
course, to the heavy taxpayers many
times the voting strength of the small
taxpayer.
A Berlin newspaper, in pointing out
some results of this three-class sys-
TEN, showed that in one voting dis
come of $4,000 was the entire first
class; in an adjoining and very poor
district ten men, whose taxes were
only $25 each, constituted the first
class, and added that If the Berliner
with the $4,000 income had voted in
the rich Thiergarten quarter he
would have been In the third class,
like the imperial chancellor, Herr Won
Bethmann Hollweg" Actually there
are 100000 voters in the first class,
100000 In the second, and more than
100000 In the third If the suffrage
system of Prussia prevailed in the
United States, Andrew Carnegie, John
d, Rockefeller and others would in
their respective districts, constitute
the entire first class.
Councillors High-CIass Men.
Whatever criticism may be made
of this electoral system from other
viewpoints, it has resulted, generally,
In electing to the position of town
councillors high-class and public-spir-
tied men. This evil has attached to it,
however, that the men thus chosen
have reflected too often and too. ex-
clusively the wishes and interests of
their rich constituents. The new Ger
man city, as made or permitted by
them-if anything is really officially
permitted in Germany--is too largely
an aristocratic municipality rather
than democratic community, for
show to the few rather than for use
by the many.
Public service, giving, as 1t does
In Germany, coveted social position,
attracts many Germans of the highest
character. The call to civic duty Is
one which no German refuses. The
law which Furnishes with a fine any
person declining to accept the office
of councillor after election is said to
have proved unnecessary. Germans
