DISTRICT GOVERNMENT. ‘MUST PAVE BETWEEN TRACKS WITH BELGIAN ‘BLOCKS, Tax Star has heretofore referred to the or- der of the of April 19, pronibit- ing the use of cobble-stones in paving between the tracks of railroad companies and_requiri: Belgian blocks. Some time ago the ‘Metropol, tan railroad company had occassion poe g- their tracks on Capitol street and 41¢ street. The Commissioners ordered Belgian blocks, in accordance with their order above referred to, Mr. Nathaniel Wilson, the attor- ney for the railroad, in a letter to the Commis- sioners, questioned their authority, and asked that they be given time to get a decision from the U.S. Supreme Court on the subject. Capt. Symons to-day, in a letter to Commissioner Raymond, recommends that no gare what- ever be made in the order with to the paving with granite blocks, MISCELLANEOUS, The order of the Commissioners directing the opening of the alley in square 968 has been suspended for ninety days, Se," aig Miles of the telegraph and telephone service has written to the Commis- sioners calling their attention to the bad con- dition of the roof in the building ing eet by him. He says that the roof over the battery room leaks very badly, rendering it difficult to maintain a working battery. The Commis- sioners will order the roof repaired at once. peciaoomnd since i The National Temperance Home. The second anniversary of the National tem- perance homeon Missouri avenue was held last night. The meeting was presided over by Dr. C. N.

Richard Stewart, colored, was given twenty days in jail by Judge Miller to-day for assault- ing a colored man named Thornton Finks, Stewart met Thornton last night with Sarah Vincent, whom Stewart says is his sweetheart. For that reason he dealt Finks a blow on the jaw and knocked two of his teeth out. This Morning Stewart dressed himself early and waited for Policeman Daly, who appeared and arrested him. igi A Negro Boy and His Pistol. James Henderson, a sixteen-year-old colored boy, was on his way to the wharf yesterday with small wagon to purchase clams, and before arriving at the wharf met Sam Mason, colored, who was also driving a wagon. They got into a dispute as to who had the right of way, and Henderson threatened to blow Mason’s head off. “You can’t do it with shavings,” said Mason. “But I can with this,” replied Henderson, pointing a revolver at him. “Oh, that ain't nothing,” said Mason, “I'll make you eat that when you get to the wharf.” When they arrived at the wharf complaint was made and Policeman Constantine arrested Henderson. This morning when the case was tried in the Police Court Judge Miller imposed the maximum penalty, €50 or 90 days, Seacoast No Bet, but a Fight. Last night about 10 o’clock «man in the crowd on Pennsylvania avenue offered to wager 150 on Kilrain, Another individual promptly offered to take the bet,whereupon Kilrain’s backer backed down. This caused a fight. The men clinched and were wiping up the pave- ment with each other when Policeman Hollin- berger called time and eaded the mill, When taken to the station the men gave their names as Geo. Lynch and Geo. Williams and left $5 collateral, which they forfeited in the Police Court this morning. Directors Elected.

A month or more ago Ora Chatfield was suffering so from ‘nervous prostration that the matter was inves- tigated, and it was ascertained that she was madly in love with Miss Dietrich, with whom she was living. The two were torn apart, and ® warrant was procured in Aspen for the ar- rest of the elder girl, with an intention to have an investigation made as to her sanity.

The results are startling. He says: pound interest, the principal double itself every fifteen years—no very extravagant as- | sumption—the $10,000 invested in 1692 would | to-day amount to the inconceivably enormous sum of $184,207,370,700!

Some Interesting Dream Statistics Gleaned by a Russian University. From the Boston Medical Journal. An interesting investigation upon the above subject has recently becn made under the aus pices of the University of Dorpat, Russia, Some 500 circulars were sent out with « seriea of quite definite questions, which were answered with equal detail by 151 students, 113 other males, 142 females. The .results for the two sexes were so different that they demand separation, while the students formed a home geneous class interesting as a special study. The first problem that was proposed was the relation between the frequency and the vivid- ness of dreams, It appears that 625 per cent of those who dream every night dream vividly, 60.5 per cent of those who dream frequently, and only 26.8 per cent of those who dream —, showing ond No gna of dreams increases vet rapidly wi their ae S Next, how is the inveneity of sleep 44 the frequency of dreams? Of the students who dream nightly 63 percent have a light oe hag only 28 per cent have a deep sleep) of those dreaming frequently, 40 per cent, of those dreaming seldom, 32.8 per cent. Similar Percentages for the other mules are 68.8, 42.1, and 39.3, and for women, 72.46 and 50 per cent. We conclude, then, that frequent dreams area concomitant of light sleep, though the relaxa- tion is far from universal. As regards sex, women have 73 per cent of their number dream- a § nightly or frequently, while students have only 50 percent and other males 48 per cent. Again. per cent of the women sleep lightly and only 42 per cent of student, and 44 cent of other males. We conclude, then, hes women have avery much lighter sleep them men, and that their dreams are proportionately more frequent. Another conclusion the evidence of which is too detailed at present, is that as we grow older our dreams become less frequent, but our slee| becomes lighter, age affecting intensity oe sleep more than juency of 8 The author regards the students as in the period maximum of dreaming (twenty to twenty-four years of age.) The deep sleep of childhood (hostile to frequency of dreams) is then least counterbalanced by the lessening of dreams due toage. The vividness of dreams shows asimilar relation to age and sex; the Women dream most vividly; the students, bein, younger than the other men, have more vivid dreams. The power of remembering dreams is also dependent upon vividness and frequency of dreaming; it is accordingly greatest in women, and greater in students than in more mature men. The liveliness of the emotional nature, a prom- inent feature of women and youth, seems thus to be marked out as the causative agent in the production of dreams, The duration of sleep should naturally be related to the habit of dreaming, but in the men no such relation can be discovered. In the women, however, it ap- Pears that those who dream frequently sleep nearly an hour longer than those who seldom dream, This difference is regarded as due to the fact that men are more under duty to break short their sleep and thus vitiate the statistics, This is corroborated by the fre- quency with which the men who dream fre- quently declare themselves tired in the morn- . indicating incomplete sleep. _ The need of sleep is greater in women than in men, the duration of sicep being longer and the percentage of tired morning and evening and of not tired being 3 to 2. and 2 to 3 tively as compared to the men. Students sle P longer and are less tired than other men. The time needed to fall asleep is about the same in all three classes—20.8 minutes for the men, 17.1 minutes for students, and 21.2 minutes for the women. In each case, however, it takes longer for those who are frequent dreamers and light sleepers to fall asleep than persons of opposite characteristics. Eighty per cent of students sleep uninterruptedly through the night, 70 per cent of other men, and only 43 per cent of women. Light sicep and frequent dreams in- crease the interruptedness of sleep, The power of falling asleep at will is possessed by few. It is greater in youth thanin age, Twenty-eight per cent of men, 19 per cent of students, and 20 per cent of women sleep in the afternoon, indi- cating a making up of insufficient sleep on the part of the men. The effect of dream habits upon mental work is also evident. Those who dream sel- dom, or sleep deeply, are better disposed for work in the forenoon than light sleepers and frequent dresmers. The forenoon seems in general to be the preferred time of work. The Statistics regarding nervousness confirm the accepted fact that this is greater among stu- dents than other men at large. It is, too, o concomitant of light sleep and frequent dreams, As to temperament the phlegmatic people are quite constantly deep sleepers and infrequent dreamers, Finaliy, a contrast bes tween teachers and professors of the same average age shows the effect of the occupation. The teacher, with his daily toil, has a lighter sieep and more frequent dreams while the pro- fessor, leading a comparstively congenial and worriless lite, is a a sleeper and a jess frequent dreamer than the teacher. enn as FOREIGN NOTES.
