In conformity with ft law passed by the
last legislature of Now York the youth
of the empire state are being taught the
nature anil effects of alcoholic beverages
and tobacco on the human system The
new branch of study , against which the best
oJucators of the ttala protested In vain.
U tacked on to that of physiology and
hygiene.
Uy the word "nature" Is meant the com-
pcslto Ingredients of alcoholic beverages ,
and In order to be thorough and avoid com
ing In conflict with the precise construction
of the law , which , when neglected , calls
for a vsry large Indemnity flnc , teachers
rro compcllej to teach their pupils the pro
portions of everything that goes to make
up beer and splrltous liquors. The children
of Now York therefore will not only know
that the consumption of beer and wine
Is Injurious , but they will also know how
to inako these flrlnks. Based on the old
theory that familiarity with alcoholic bev
erages has never made n drunkard , and
the further oft established fact that preach
ers' rv.ns , and those who have been forced
to a'ff.tmlousncss , make the worst drunk
ards , this now course of study just Intro-
Uuced , In the New York schools may work
both ways. Doing able to rncke whisky out
of a bushel of wheat , just as they would
make soup out of a soup bone and water ,
they may not care for It all. On the other
hand the noble profession of brewers and
distillers may be largely Increased for the
benefit of those who arc not lucky enough
to receive Instruction about these things
at the expense of the state.
New York public schcol authorities do not
take kindly to the addition of the new branch
of wisdom. They say that the children have
at present more than enough to do with the
elementary studies comprise ! In the course
of study plan. Hut the adherents of the
now plan pooh-pooh these objections and
base their defense of the new Irtw on half u
dozen text bcoka with such captivating titles
as "Health for Uttle Folks , " "Stowoll's
Primer of Health , " "Hlalsdell's Child's Hook
of Health , " "Jlohonnot and Ilouton's The
Human Dody and How to Take Care of It , "
"Stonell's A Healthy IJody , " and "Dlalsdell's
How to Keep Well , " all of which have been
carefully revised arid new chapters added on
the subject of drink and Finoko. The primer
entitled "Health for Llttlo Folks , " for iibo
In the primary departments , contains thu first
reference to the poisons of liquor and nar
cotics. Hero Is what Is Impressed upon the
younestors :
"Men sometimes cquceze out the sweet
julco of good fruits and make It Into poison
ous drinks. It Is a great pity to have the
fruit that Is good for our use spoiled to make
drinks that do us harm. It Is well for us
to learn how these drinks are made , then we
shall know why they are harmful. "
When the quality of the breath has boon
fully dilated upon , the bones are taken up ,
and then the rnusclet' . From the latter the
teacher passes on to the brain , the nerves
and the sk'.n. At the conclusion of th's
first scries of lessons the Infants are
taught that the worst mistake people make
Is to think that alcohol can either warm
them nor cool them.
"Tho Trlrner of Health"s \ the second
book put Into the hands of the youngsters.
Chapter G treats of alcohol as food , and In
this , respect the statement , Is made that
there Is absolutely no virtue Is drinking
a glass or two of alcoholic llcluor , wine
or beer with food. Smoking oter , ( dinner
la ; treated In the same way , and a lot ol
evil effects mentioned that como In the
wako of either habit. Then tea and coffee
corne In for their share of condemnation ,
and water and rnllk are cited us the only
fit beverages to go Into a person's stem
ach.
Lesson 18 Is a rather poetic one , and the
pernicious Influences of tobacco are put In
rhyme thus :
Cigarette ? , they say , nre harmless
Just n tiny Ilttlo ro'.l !
But the appetite they waken
Soon might get bcyoml control ;
And tobncco chains would bind us ,
Slaves In body nnd In toul.
The reasons why boys should not smoke
tobacco are printed In Italics , as follows ;
"Tobacco takes away the appetite. Tobacco
affects the brain. Smoking Is a filthy habit.
Smoking makes hoys deceitful. Smoking
often leads to drinking. " All boys should
Say no ! to tobacco , that poisonous weed ;
Hay no ! to nil evils ; they only can lead
To shame and to sorrow .Oh , shun them ,
my boy.
For wisdom's fair pathway of peace nnd of
Joy.
Chapter 17 asks : "Doeo alcohol give
strength ? " and answers : "Notice a person
who Is under the Influence of strong drink.
He has a staggering gait. Ills tongue Is
thick and his IIrigors arc clumsy. Hut , you
ask , 'Suppose a person should take only a
small amount of alcohol , ai < a glass or two
of beer , or a glass ( Of wine or whisky , would
not this glvo strength to his muscles ? No ,
IndeeJ , for It Is positively known that alcohol
-weakens the muscles. The workman with
Ills nlo or beer cannot do so much work ati
ho can do without It. "
Chapter IS concludes with this Ilttlo lest'Oh '
for the children :
Honor and virtue , love nnd truth ,
All the Klory nnd pride of youth.
Hope of manhood , the wic.ith of fnme ,
High rmlenvor and noble aim ,
Them are the treasures thrown away
An the price of n drink from day to day.
The Instructions for making the various
brands of strong drinks are very full anil
Illustrated with cuts of stills. Four lessons
a week are devoted to this now branch.

The Now York law and similar laws In
other states calls out a vigorous protest from
David Starr Jordan , .president of the Lelaud
Stanford university , formsrly state superin
tendent of schools In Indiana.
The grounds of his objection are that It Is
not scientific to prescribe by law a foregone
conclusion for the teacher to Inculcatn ; that
the prescription of this teaching In the
schools prcresds from reformers who cire
, more to dUsomlimto their views than to
observe Mlcnllflc methods , cf which they
nre generally Ignorant ; that distorted and ex-
agger.Uo.1 statements under the guiseof
( "Clencci " are reactionary and dcstructlvd oi.
the truth-loving faculty ; and that vlrtuo Is
not acquired by memorizing ( ho dicta of
theorists , oven If they be true. Ho does not
.object to Instruction concerning the' evils of
depra\t > d appetites us a part of hygiene , but
thinly ( ho reformer ! ) overdo the matter ,
to the Injury of their own CHUN , and must
eventually ho driven from the field , .More
over , ho contends , with Justice , that the pur
pose pf the schools Is to mitke Intelligent
men and women , and that they should not ho
made the field for exploiting the fads of
very worthy and wcll.mejiilng hut visionary
theorists and reformers. To selzo upon tffo
va t wit em of public schools In order to
mak * them Instruments ) of a propaganda
would b ] a dangerous precedent ,
Dr. Jordan's argument goes on to reduce
the position of the reformers to the ah-
mirdlly of asking too much , For example ,
the 'Spoils system" of government la to poll-
ties what alcohol Is to the animal economy.
Civil Rervlco reformers might be glad to In
sist that every text book on United Stales
history ut'cd In the tchools should reiterate
their views again and again , with Intent to
revolutionize our politics. In the tame
way the manufacturers of oleomargarine
might demand that our teachers should In >
struct the children a certain number of tlme.i
In a Meek that their products are free from
the tuberculosis and other microbes that may
Infest a dairy , and a certain baking powder
manufacturer might Insist that children
iiliould bo told In school that the purity of
hli preparation gave It superiority over others
Injuriously adulterated , The domain of the
tchoola la education , and not a theater for
the exploitation of hobbles.
When lie Uv.dl Hi Indiana , Dr. JorJun w s
ooo of a state cor.unUbloii to arrange tor *
uniform series of text book * for us ? In the
prhoolb. Into this scries the commission In *
troduced a phyHology that taught the subject
rvlcntlflcally. U stated , with emphasis nnd
force , the evil effects of nlcohol , tobacco
and nnrcctlcr , but put them In due subordina
tion to the whole subject. The book was not
satisfactory to the Woman's Christian Tem
perance union , and this organization suc
ceeded In supplanting It with a book which
It approved. The publishers cf a text book
on hygiene announce their obligations to the
"Superintendent of the Department of Scien
tific Instruction of the National Woman's
Christian Temperance union , who has care
fully revised this work. " Now Dr. Jordan
protects tint this Is not the way to make
text books. If soms exemplary woman , Igno
rant of science , Is to put her Indorsement
on a physiological treatise before It "can become -
como n proper school book , why not subrnll
a'l other text books to the revision of pome
reforming association ? It Is the doctor'o
opinion that the cause ct temperance can re
ceive no srnljftantl.il aid from such Intern-
psrato zsal.

The Omaha Teachers' Training school was
established In the autumn of 1890. The or
ganization Is similar to that of the training
tc'.iools of Cincinnati , Cleveland and Colurn-
bu ? , and the general plan Is almost Identical
In Its departments of theory nnd of practice
with that proposed by the committee ol
fifteen , \\hose report , as supplementing that
of the committee of ten , has now become
famous. These reports are widely accepted
as the basis of correct educational procedure.
The course In the Omaha school occupies
ono and a half school years. One-third ol
thl time Is spent by fhe pupil teaching In
actual work In the schools. The practice de
partment.consists cf eight rooms , two at each
of the following schools : Mason , Lake , Long
and Lothrop. At each of the four school *
named an cxpsrlenccd and skillful teacher
Is placed as critic teacher. She has as as
sistants two young women who have grad
uated from the High schcol and spent live
months In the department of theory of the
trainingschool. . All lessons In the practice
school are planned carefully , at first by the
critic teacher , gradually more and more by
the pupil trachern. At the end of each day
the work of the next Is planned and the work
of the day just passed Is crltlclsjd. In the
department of theory the elementary branches
are , reviewed , civics , phytlolugy , psychology ,
history of education , music , drawing , pen
manship , etc. , are taught. Lessons ara given
by the- pupil teachers to their fellow puplU
In ( he special branches of Instruction. These
are under the direction of the supervisors.
Lessons are also given to classes of children
from the practice school. These are planned
by the pupil teacher , and the plan , when
written out , hi submitted fcr criticism to the
prlnclp2l of the fahool and to the- class of
pupil teacher ? . The completed lesson Is also
criticised.
The principal of the school gives the In
struction In the department theory nnd super
vises the work In the department of practice.
Th3 scholarship average of the training
t'chool ' Is excellent , as n High school educa
tion Is required for entrance. Of the flfty-
two graduates of the cchool about thirty are
at present In the employ of the Hoard of
Education. Eleven have marrle-J. The pchool
has been established five years and furnishes
but a moiety of the teachers needed In the
schools.

The trustees of Columbia college have re
cently accepted plans for two additional
buildings Schermerhorn hall , the gift of
Mr. William C. Schermerhorn , chairman of
the board of trustees , and the physics build-
Ing. They will be erected , says Harper's
Weekly , on the northeast corner of that portion
tion of the Mornlngslde Heights properly
now conHdared available for building , and
will bo on Amsterdam avenue , though fac
ing and entered from an Inner quadrangle.
The designs have been prepared by Messrs ,
McKIm , Mead" & White , the- architects of the
new Columbia library , the center around
which the other buildings are to be erected.
The new halls will be cf the Italian ren
aissance style of architecture , and will be
constructed of red brick and limestone ,
Schermerhorn hall , the larger , being 200x80
feet , while the physics building Is 150x50 feet.
Doth bulldlnga will bo four stories In height ,
with basement and sub-basement.
Schermerhorn hall has bsen particularly
designed to accommodate the various de
partments of natural science , and faces to the
south , enjoying a bright light , which will
afford ample opportunity for microscopic
work. It will contain In the rear , on Its
first and second floors , a largo amphitheater
for scientific lectures , besides museums , lab
oratories' , libraries , lecture rooms and studies
for the officers of Instruction. An Instance
of the completenessof the design of the
building Is exhibited In the rooms of the de
partment of experimental psychology , where
a "quiet room" Is to be constructed sur
rounded entirely with asbestos packing BO
that experiments may be conducted free frcrn
all external d'sturbance.
The physics building will be similar In de
sign to Scliernierhorn hall , but will have two
entrances , and extend along Amsterdam ave
nue , facing the west. In this building the
purposes for which It Is built have been most
carefully considered , the final arrangement
being th8 result of several years' study qn
the part of the staff of the department of
physics , A large lecture'room and laboratories
for the many branches of this extensive
science have been provided , while below the
sub-basement fl constant-temperature room Is
to bo excavated In the solid rock ,

THEY ALL STOP THE CAR

Stopping a street car Is a recognized ar
and It Is seldom that you find any two per
sons 'who employ the ramo irnethod In
bringing- ono of the modern vehicles o
travel to n standstill.
Some years ago the favorite way of stop
ping a street car was to present a loadei
revolver at the head of the man who stooi
en the front platform. This plan of opera
tlon , however , had Its disadvantages am
was relegated to the rear , so far as this
city wao concerned , during the early winter
cf 1SS4. In those days horses furnished the
motive power for the street cars. One dark
night Conductor Wooldrlge was driving wha
was then known as the "Green Lino" car
The tracks over which this car passed extended
tended from Hanscom park and down Into
the center of the city , out on Flftecntl
streit , winding over onto Eighteenth strce
to Lake , and from there to the car barn
nt Twenty-sixth and Lake.
During the night heretofore mentlonei
Wooldrlgo was pushing his horses along or
the last trip out. Just as he reached the
Intersection of Eighteenth and Sprue ? streets
In the rear of A. J. Poppleton's residence
Jim Rugard' stepped from behind a tree ant
attempted to stop the car. In doing so , he
pulled a revolver and commenced firing a' '
Wooldrlgc , at the same time telling him to
stop and turn over the contents of the
cash box. Wooldrlgc pulled up his horses
nnd at the ramo time ho pulled a revolver
Hugard climbed onto the front end of the
car , and ns he did PO Wooldrlge sent n bul
let through his body. The result was tha
Rugard died a couple of hours later nm
Wooldrlge was voted a hero. Since that time
the Rugard plan cf stopping street cars has
been decidedly unpopular.
YET THEY STOP THE CAR.
There Is ono certain class of people whenever
never fall to stop their car. They may stop
every car between the depot and the cits
hall , but they never fall to make , n stop
They have been sjelng the sights and are
going home to Hog Bend , Mo. Squire Drown
carries a cotton umbrella with an elastic
band around It. Mrs. Brown clutches wltl
a tight grip one of his arms , and as ho
waves the umbrella In the air , after the
manner of the arms of a. windmill In a
Dakota cyclone , she btands on tip-toe am
fans the nlr with her free arm until the
n'otorrnnn Is driven wild. The squire gives
color to the stopping process by emitting
"HI there. " The car stops , the squire grabs
his wife , she grabs her skirts and they make
a rush for the platform. They stop before
getting on the car and ask If It goes to the
depot , It It stops at the depot and If It
passes the depot from- which the Hog Hcni
train starts. They enjoy'the exercise , for It
Is full of excitement ( for them , If not for the
trainmen.
The up-to-date tailor made girl of Omaha
betrays little , emotion oyen In stopping n
street car. She stops a car Just as she stops
anything else that she wants to. After
making her signal to the motorman she
stands on the sidewalk until the. car comes
to a full stop. Then she lifts her skirts abou
an eighth of an Inch and slowly and mos
carefully tip-toes her way to the car. Jus
as she is about tostep upon the platform
the conductor rings the bell to go ahead an-1
a moment later the taller , made girl Is
Inside the car and safely ensconced In one
coiner.

In the stopping ot.iv , street car , Iui.lie ( mornIng -
Ing he will run. three blacks and catch a
North Twentieth street "car and never be
the. worse for It , but on a Sunday'when

stops he gets on with lordly ceremony.
METHODS EMPLOYED BY OTHERS.
"There Is nothing like an 'umbrel' for
making those fearlul vehicles "
stop , remark
an antlquatcJ music teacher to a frlenc
whom she found on a Sherman avenue car
the other day , after she had laborious ! }
swiped the sun shade to and fro , while
the car had been coming from Clark to
Nicholas street. She had climbed on will
rome little difficulty and had looked daggers
at the motorman because he had allowed the
car to go a couple of feet beyond the cross
ing.
Dignity Is the next best thing to an
"umbrel. " There Is a well known man who
takes the Walnut Hill car , who always
stops It with dignity. In fact he has done
so for years past. He 1ms learned the value ol
the impresslveness of the will of a strong
man over that of a street railway employe.
The woman who Is a member of the
suffrage society stops the Tenth street car
and nt the same time makes the train
men feel the- force of her Influence. She
walks with a stately tread and shoots her
finger out In the direction of the motorman
In a way that makes him start and dodge.
She carries a few reports of the Woman's
Suffrage association under one arm and
Intimates to the conductor that she could
glvo him a few points on running a car.
Then she occupies enough room for two
persons , focuses her glasses and looks about
the car In a manner that Is Intended to
freeze the other passengers.
The man who Is always late In catching
a car annoys not only the train men , but
the regulars who llvo along the lino. Ho
clgnals the car when he Is three blocks away
and then he leisurely walks to the street.
If the car does not wait for him he files a
complaint with the officers of the road and
asks for the discharge of the men who
operate the car. Ho does not realise that
nnotner car will ue along In a few minutes ,
nor does ho care If the particular car that
ho has held up contains n half dozen men
who are hurrying to the depot to catch a
train. While quietly sauntering along he
does not stop to think that on the car ard n
rcore of men and women who nro going to
jo late at their places of business and likely
to liavo their salaries cut on account of the
delay that they liavo experienced.

AMUSEMENTS. J
cccceccccccccccccccccsoccc *
The sacred concert which was given a
St , John's Collegiate church lat-t night wl
long rcmiln a landmark In thernuslca
chronology cf Omaha. It Is doubtful whcthc
local talent was ever united In so notable
performance before nnd tbo success achieve
was so extraordinary ni ; to Inspire the fen
that It will bo long before Its like Is hear
again. The principal feature of the enter
talmncnt was the rendition of RoslnP
sublime production , "Stabat Mater , " by th
St , John's church choir , augmented to
chorus of plxty voices ) , and Including rcmc o
the best local soloists. The production
under the condtictorshlp of Mr. Thomas .
Kelly , with Mr. W. T. Tabor at tbo organ
To say that this rnasterplcca of sacred mclod
was successfully rendered would be but
mean tribute to an achievement for whlc
no words of praise could be too extravagant
It wao a revelation to the people who Jammc <
the auditorium. The character of the com
poy'.tlon nnd the well known ability of man
of the singers had led them to anticipate a
enjoyable performance. But the exqulslt
blending of cultivated voices , the pcrfec
tlon Of shading and the full , well roundc
cmomblo which filled the arches with sue
sublime harmony wau eJOlclent to convlnc
the most skeptical that Omaha had muslca
resources that had never been sounded am
that a mark had been set far beyond a'
previous bounds.
It Is a pleasure to wy that the audlenc
wau commensurate with the PUCCCSS of th
undertaking. Hundreds cf people came hal
an hour early In order to obtain the bss
seatfl. But they found nearly every pc\
occupied. The chancel and the aisles wer
seated with chain' , which accommodated bu
a small portion cf the multitude that con
tinned to pcur through the doors. The re
rnalnlng standing room was utilized to th
last Inch. The church was jammed tc. th
outer doora nnd scores of late comero wcr
unable to squeeze themselves Into the build
Ing. The ushers had a difficult task , but the
performed It with exceptional grace.
Three numbers i receded the main per
fornmnce. Mr. Taber played Weber's "Do
Frolschutz , " which was followed by th
"Gloria In Exceisls" from Mczart's twclftl
mass by the full choir. This was superbly
rendered , giving the audlcnco Its first con
ceptton of the strength and spirit of th
choir. Mrs. O. H. Simon's beautiful soprano
was heard to Its best advantage In the "
Will Extol Thee , 0 Lord , " from the oratorl
of "EH. " Her rendition of the rather trying
selection was especially commendable.
It would be difficult to discover any feature
of the "Stabat Mater , " at which commenda
tlon could justly begin. The excellence of Its
performance at no time fell to mediocrity
The soloists wcro well chosen nnd It sceniei
that each voice was at Its best In honor
of the occasion. And the chorus was In no
respect deficient. While It was particularly
strong In basses and sopranos there was no
audible weakness of the remaining ingredi
ents. It was the bassos that first challenged
admiration , as they filled the cathedral wltl
the low opening notes. Then the tenors
blended harmoniously. The high , clear tones
of the sopranos gradually Joined the melody
ind then the full power of voices and organ
swelled In the grand crescendo. The quarte
measures of the opening chorus , were sunt ,
by Mrs. Bethge , Mrs. Lange , Captain Klnzle
and Mr. Hoffman.
C. A. Jacobsen sang the "Pro Peccat'.s , '
after which the duet , "Quls Est Homo , " was
creditably rendered by Mrs. Coffman and
Mrf , Lange. Mr. Burkley was substituted In
the quartet for the "Sancta Mater" and this
was magnificently sung. The soprano solo
"
"Fac ut Portem"as well as the "Inflam-
matus. ' , " were sung by Mrs. Cudahy , whose
well cultivated voice was fully equal to the
exactions of the score. Mr. Jacobsen's best
effort was the solo , "Ela Mater , " In whlcl
he was supported by the full choir. Captain
Klnzlo's solo , "Cujus1 Anlmani , " was ad
mirably sung and the quartet , with Mr
Beresford as basso , again did itself credit
In the "Quando Corpus. "
In the finale the choir made Its best effort
which very appropriately rounded out a per
formance that all present would be gad ! to
hear a second time. The soloists were : Mrs.
E. A. Cudahy , Mrs. V. II. Coffrnan , Mrs. 0.
H. Simons , Mrs. A. F. Bethge , sopranos ; Mrs.
F. J. Lange , contralto ; Captain John Klnzle ,
tenor ; Mr. Paul D. Bercsford , baritone ; Mr.
Harry V. Burkley , baritone ; Mr. Carl Hoff
man , basso , and Mr. C. A. Jacobsen , basso.
The chorus Included Mesdames Downey ,
Mcrlarty , Dally , Corby , Thomas , Hawley ,
Misses Hayes , K. Burkhard , O'Rourko , Ruch ,
Brown , Seaver , Qulnn , Croft , C. WIckham ,
Maher , sopranos ; Mrs. Gray , Mrs. Maher ,

"A Fool for Luck1' at Boyd's last evening
was not favored by the usual Sunday night
crowd , but the amusement furnlehcd was In
a general way excellent for farce-comedy.
Any other name would suit the play as well
fclnce It U used merely as an excuse for the
appearance of a mirnlnr of specialty people
above the avcrag ; , and as ( ho mirth-producing
combination. The soncs and dances are good ,
though porno of the jokes perpetrated are
tottering with ago. Joe Cawthorn anil Miss
Annie IJuckley monopolize n largo part of
the time and nro assisted by a number of
good voice ? , pretty faces and graceful dancers.
A thrilling comedy-drama , "Tho Sidewalks
of New York , " opened an engagement at the
Crelghton yesterday. The piece ID put on aa
a scenic master work , and latest effect In
realism , and Is elaborately staged. The name
very largely Indlcctes the character of the
production. The champion high diver of the
world , Kearney Speed , drops a distance of
thirty-five feet Into a tank of water , much
o the amusement of ono class of theater
mtrono. The house was favored with rather
L fair Sunday nlpht crowd , though "Tho
Sldewalku of New York" Is not calculated to
arouse any startling degree of enthusiasm.
The great success of "Powhottan" Saturday
night has decided the ladles of All Saint's
o repeat the opera on Thursday night. Seats
go on sale Tuesday at Hoyrt's. "Powhnttan"
s full of good music , pretty dances and Is
a decided novelty.

ho near future a two night engagement - > f

ASSESSMENT OF 10 CENTS PER WEEK

fur AldliiKT tliv Out-of-
Work. ,
The scheme embodied In the resolution :
pissed at the mass meeting In Labor Temple-
Saturday night , regarding a 10 cent fund
for the partial support of the unemployed , Is.
receiving cordial endorsement from mem
bers of the various unions. A largo
number of the members of tho-
several trades organizations , who are-
employed during the v.'cck , make a practice
of congregating Vt.jtnc . Labor Temple Sun
days and the usual crowd was at the Tcmpla-
yesterday. The 10 cent fund was tbo prin
cipal topic of conversation nnd It was the.
general opinion that a resolution in support
of the plan should be Introduced in each trade-
organization.
This Idea will be carried out during this ,
week and the originators of the plan feel
very confident that ( lie result will be entirely ;
satisfactory. It Is estimated that there are
fully 3,000 members of trades unions who.
are employed steadily and u contribution ot
10 cents from each of these men would crcato
a fund of $300 per week , which would go-
far toward relieving the most urgent cases
of destitution. Some of the members of
the Central Labor union were discussing the
matter yesterday and decided to bring the
question before the next meeting of that
body.
These same members say that the work on
the streets which has been secured Is but
a single step In the right direction. It w'lt
serve , they yay , to relieve some of the ne
cessity , but will not bo all that Is required.
Under the rule which has been established
by the Central Labor union the men are-
worked In shifts of thirty , each man being ;
given three days' work , after which ho Is ,
required to drop out unti : his turn cornea
again , The list of men who have applied
for street work and who have been foundr
worthy now numbers about 350 nnd Is con
tinually growing , to that any one man will
get work In this way at about the rate of
thrco days out of each forty. As the pay
Is only $1.20 for a day of eight hours , tho.
workmen are not likely to contract the gout.
Thobo who nre taking the Initiative In tho-
work of caring for their less fortunate fel
lows , therefore , soy they must devise other
means to further their benevolent work. The
co-oporatlvo laundry and other plans arc *
under consideration , which nre expected to.
assist materially In the good work.
