THE CITY OF LIGHT.
Philadelphia Claims to He the "Beat
lighted fit? t the Inlted States."
Chicago Record-Herald.
I'hlladdphla. now claims to be "the. best
lighted city In the United Btatea." It is
led to make this claim sftcr having erected
B new .electric street lights this year, and
as a result of comparison with the number
of street lights maintained by other cities.
The Quaker City now maintains nearly
10,000 lights, or, to be exsct, ,977. Chicago,
covering a much larger area, now operates
4. Ml arc lamps from Its municipal plants
and rents 605 more arc lamps which bts
operated by private companies, making a
total of b,m electric street lights. In addi
tion to these lights, however. Chicago has
M.OOO gns lamps and ,200 gasoline lamps.
In the ahaence of figures regarding Phila
delphia's gas lamps It Is not possible to
make compsrlsous ss to total lights of all
kt.ids. In the matter of are lamps, how
ver. It tz evident that Philadelphia is way
ahead of Chicago.
The history of street lighting in Phila
delphia is Interesting, because It Is a his
tory of the development of the arc light.
When Brush of Cleveland Invented the aro
light, as everyone knows, hs had a hard
time convincing city authorities of Its prac
ticability. It wss ridiculed by Inventors and
electricians and its failura predicted. After
msny unMuceH&ful efforts to secure its
adoption In Philadelphia a local company
offered to light Chestnut street with the
sre lights for a year for nothing. The offer
was accepted in a city ordinance pussrd by
the Philadelphia council June SO. ISM, and
the dark and gloomy thoroughfare wss
converted Into a brilliantly lighted prome
nade. Thla marked the beginning of a very wide
snd rapid extension of the aro lighting sys
tem, not only In Philadelphia, but alt over
the union. In Philadelphia, It Is claimed,
the increase In lights has caused a great
decrease In crime, burglary and thievery
being very rare. It has also effected a
great change In house architecture, the
old-fashioned outside "shutters" being done
away with and ornamented glass psnels
bflng placed in front doors.
It rsn readily be understood how a drum
mer who not only knows his business, but
Is also familiar with the latest anecdotage
of Chicago and New York, can endear
himself as well as his goods to a remote,
unfriended, melancholy snd slow set of
potential customers. Unfortunately, it is
only In countries In which English is
spoken that the drummer can overate.
Outside of those, he comes Into a compe
tition with tha German drummer, by what
ever name he may be known at home, a
competition which he cannot sustain by
reason of the German's superior knowledge
of foreign tongufs. The addition, say, of
; Spanish alone to the equipment of the
; American drummer, including his total
want of any but a calculated and prudent
I reserve, would be worth millions to his
1 native land. "Qlvs him but room, and do
not bind him when he- sleeps." In other
words, give him a fair chance by a liberal
isation of the tariff, and he will do ths
rest.

New York Times.
The report of the British commissioner
to South Africa. Mr. Blrchenuutfh, is ths
most reassuring document which has been
given to ths publlo about the Industrial
condition and prospects of the vast region
now reduced to allegiance to the British
crown. Particularly striking Is the state
. ment that South Africa, of ths British de
pendencies, already ranks second among
the customers of the mother country. And
the experience of the past two years seems
to warrant the commissioner's expectation
that within the next yeer South Africa
will puss India and take first place. Amer
ican rivalry with Great Britain In this Held
Is confined to certain specialties, especially
sgrtcultursl, electrlcsl and mining machin
ery, snd manufactures of wood. In fact,
the Transvaal was a market for American
wagons long before the war, and will now
become a better market than ever.
One cause of the American success ths
British commissioner finds In "the sc
cesalbility and bonhomie of ths American
agents, compared with the reserve of the
HrltUih sgents." This is a welcome and
merited tribute to ths American "drum
mer." with whom tha "bagman" following
ths British drumbeat cannot cops. How
any Commercial traveler csn get on with
"reserve" Is a pusxle to whoever hss ob
served the ways of our native prsctltloner

When I think of all tha dressing.
And the light and shady meat.
That the gormand and the glutton.
And dyspeptic have to eat
On thla the glad Thanksgiving
Why then I'd rather be
The roasted turkey gobbler
Than the man that gobbles me,
When I think of all the raisins
And ths flavoring of sage,
And the tiny sea of gravy
To hide my toughened age.
Then I'd rather be the dinner
Than the guest I'd rather be
The roasted turkey gobbiur
Than the man that gobbles me.
When I think of sll tha visions
That shall ripen in the night.
From the shadows of my dark-meat
To my shredded ghosts of whlut.
Then I'd rather liy my wattle
On the block than chance to be
The betid upon the pillow
That is dreaming over me.
Let the cleaver clip and sever
All my ardont hones of life.
And the chef my faith and fancy
With the axe and carving knife
Yet my li are prone to gather
That, withal. I'd rather be
The roasted turkey gobbler
Than ths man that gobbles me.
