MANAGERS IN FORTY CITIES
New Plan of Municipal Government
Has Grown More Rapidly Than
Is Generally Known.

If somewhere, sometime, in the ever
ing West there is not evolved the per-
feet plan for governing a city, 1t will
not be for lack of experimentation
with governmental schemes. A good
many cities and towns scattered over
the map of the United States took uE
with the idea of government by COM
mission during the first decade Of th6
new century. There was subsistence
to the rush for the commission govern
ment scheme about five years ago,
Then, in 1913, the Ohio legislature put
through bill formulating what is now
known as the city managing scheme,
The idea has been acted upon tG
an extent that the majority of people
are not aware of. Dayton, o., was
the first city of over 100000 popula
ton to try-out the manager scheme,
but there are now about 40 cities
so governed. Twenty urban commu'
mites employed manager last year,
Grand Rapids being the largest city
next to Dayton trying the new scheme
Of government. The city manager plan
seems to be only a variation Of the
commission government idea. There
is commission, generally Of five, be-
hind the manager, and the com.
mission generally appoints the mana
ger.
The city manager plan has been
adopted even in states where there
is no statute providing for such a plan
Of government. The idea involved is
being applied in many instances
without any change in the framework
under the old councilmanic and city
mayor forms of government.

FANTASY IN RAILROAD TRAIN
Number of Cars Passing over Penn.
syIvania Road Leads Statistician
to Make Calculation.

During the month of September.
1915, between $4,000 and 10000 cars
passed over the middle division of the
Pennsylvania railroad. The fact led
a StatiStician to make the following in
genious calculation: Suppose that the
cars numbered 1SS000, and that all Of
them had to pass given point during
the 30 days of September; each car
would have but 1871 seconds in which
TO make it's transit. If each car was 3J
feet long, and all the cars made up
only one train, it would be about 1862
miles long. If drawn by a single two
cylinder locomotive that had cylinders
of 2O-inch stroke, driving wheels 4 feet
s inches in diameter and a 200-pOund
steam pressure, the cylinder would
have to be 53 feet in diameter, the
heating surface would approximate 62
acres, and the CRATE area would be
nearly one acre; and were the fire box
Y inches wide, it would have to be
2-5 miles long. The handle of the
fire rake would extend back to the two
hundred and seventh car. The fireman
would have to throw ~ tons of coal
at a shovelful, and throw shovelful
once every three seconds. TO feed the
boiler, the injector pipes would have
to be about 5 feet in diameter, and both
of them would have to be working
most of the time. If the engineer had
to whistle to the rear brakeman, the
sound, If it could carry 50 far, would
take IL hours to reach him. At a
sustained speed of II miles an hour,
it would take the train about days
and II hours to pass a given point, so
that If station master said "Good-by''
to the engineer at midnight on Sunday,
it would be noon on Friday before he
could shout "Hello!" to the brakeman
on the rear car.-Youth's Companion.

HE SAVED SEVENTEEN LIVES
Death Claims the Hero Who Inquired,
at End of ordeal: "Did Do
My Best?"

Edward w. Spencer first student
life-saver at Northwestern university
at Evanston, Ill.,, and "the hero of the
Lady Elgin," died at Burbank, Cal, re-
Gently after a lingering illness. He
was eighty-One years old.
His death recalls a bit Of almost
forgotten history. In 1860 the side
wheel steamer Lady Elgin cOllided
with the schooner Augusta off Winet-
ka, while bound for Milwaukee, and
sank, with the loss of the lives of
s95 passengers. Spencer's feat of res
cuing II persons was concentrated
by the class of 1898, which erected a
bronze memorial tablet in the Orring-
ton Lunt library at the university June
3, 1908.
AS Spencer sank with exhaustion on
completing his final trip through the
breakers and the surf, he asked the
question inscribed on the tablet, did
/ do my best?" His experience left
him broken in health and he went to
California to recuperate. He lived
there until his death.
