D ECONOMICAL RULE IN MICHIGAN TOWN Government of White Pigeon Ex- pended Only 81321 Last Year. who wish to know Chicago city official how cheaply a municip be run would do well to study the 1902 ac- counts of the little town of White Pigeon, Mich. The treasurer of that village has just added up the debit and credit sides of his ledger and has found that it cost the $00 inhabitants of the community just $1321 48 for one yéar's local government. Chi- cago’'s government will require $11,006000 | for the year for les than 2,000,000 persons. | Here is where the difference lies: The White Pigeon village health depart- ment cost just $2 35 in twelve months, b s the health officer’s salary of $20. While the Chicago health department is down for $200,000, the White Pigeonites got through the year with no other outlay than $2 to Oney O'Dowd for burying a sheep that died on the street and 35 cents to H. Miller for interring a dog which met its demise in the same way. The White Pigeon police department | cost only 50 cents for the entire year. Ac- cording to the treasurer’s report this sum | s spent on a badge for the town mar- shal. Chicago's police department cost n ly $3,500,000. Chicago was far more economical than White Pigeon in spending cash for wood- | chucks and ground moles, however. While | the action of the ground hog probably cost Chicago considerable money for street cleaning, the animal does not figure in Controller McGann's report. White Pigeon, on the contrary, spent $144 80 on ground mole bounties and $125 5 for woodchuck scalps. Another item in which White Pigeon saved over Chicago was in fire depart- ment expenses. While there hasn't been | a serious fire in the Michigan town for several years, the hand chemical engine is always ready and the chief’s silver speak- | ing trumpet is kept polished for him to shout orders through if fire ever starts. | The total cost of the fire department is $5 a month, besides the wear and tear on the firemen’s uniforms from attending re- hearsals. Chicago officlals also might get a hint or two frcm the sources of revenue of this thrifty village. It derives $10 from a li- cense on the only pool table in town, operated by Stickle Bros. All wandering theatrical companies are also taxed §1 each on. their receipts. None of sources of revenue appears in Controller McGann's annual report.—Chicago Tri- bune. —_—— “The idea of your telling me I'm ex- travagant,” protested Mr. Chugwater, “when I've saved $500 in the last ten years cn one item alone, by a little self-denial!” “What item is that?” demandmd: Mrs. “bugwater.

Certain microbes are known to exist which are very much too small to be seen as Individuals under the most powerful microscopes. Their existence is made known only by the slight opalescence which they impart to the liquids in which they swarm and by thelr effects in pro- ducing diseases such as horse-sickness, bovine peripneumonia and the like. There is little hope that microscopes will be per- fected so that these invisible microbes can be seen. The microscope is very near to theoretical perfection now. Its resolv- ing power cannot be pushed beyond the detection of elements having a breadth of 0.10 to 0.13 of a micron (a micron is 1-1000 of a millimeter; that is, a millionth part of a meter or about one-twenty five thou- sandth part of an inch). The small mi- crobes of which we are speaking have just about these dimensions. One of the bacteria present in putrefaction has linear dimensions a million times less than those of a man and .a hundred million times less than those of the great trees of Cal- ifornia. Is there any reason to suppose | that there are bacteria a million or a hundred million times smaller than the | one inst mentioned? The question has lately been studied by M. Errara, who starts with the hypothe- sis, derived from both physics and chem- istry, that matter is not infinitely divis- ible, that it is composed of atoms of a | ecertain minimum size. Granting this, it follows that animals and plants, even the most simple, are complexes made up of molecules, themselves made up of con- geries of atoms, and therefore of a min- imum size not indefinitely+small. Taking the microbe Micrococcus progrediens as a basis of calculation (its diameter is about 0.15 of a micron), he finds that it aust contain about 10,000 atoms of sulphur Louise | Sarah | 2 Y ; Decrease. ’ : | Oakland, Berkeley and Ala- 4| mseda Give Food for Thought.

All England has been indignant at the crime and at the insufficient punishment of a mother who punished her daughter brutally for a ‘“bad habit.” Almost every one can remember such an illustra- tion of punishing children for being ill family during his childhood. The arouses the thought that the old-time punishments of the insane, of the aged, etc., are by no means past. To every oculist’s office are frequently brought the pitiable victims of stupid school teachers, who are still often punishing children for the astigmatism, myopla or hyperopia which has prevented them from seeing figures on the blackboard or from study- ing diligently, or from being as bright- minded as the teacher wishes. We know of cne railway superintendent who pun- ishes his men who are growing presbyopic by discharging them if they wear glasses. One wonders if the detestable superstition of the evil eye and the horrible punish- ment inflicted on its supposed possessor has arisen because of strablsmus.—Amer, jcan Medicine. R e and certainly not less than 30,000 albumin- oid molecules. As the volumes of like organisms are proportional to the cubes of their like dimensions, a microbe of 0.05 microns in diameter would contain not more than 100 atoms of sulphur, and a mi- crobe of 0.01 microns not more than three or four such. To make the miicrobe the organization that it is, sulphur is re- quired; and it follows that, if the molecu- lar theory taken as a starting point be true, the dimensions of the smallest mi- crobes possible cannot be indefinitely smaller than the dimensions of the small- est now known to us. —_————————— About 40,000 Chinese emigrate to Viadi- vostok every spring and return to Che- foo in the autumn. gineer and three in the grade of assist- | The crew will row the Port- | which occurred in his neighborhood or | fact | ERELEY 0TS ) SPEGIL T Congested Condition of the Schools to Be Remedied. Berkeley Office San Francisco Call. 2148 Center Street, May 16. By an overwhelming vote to-day the residents of this city registered them- | selves in favor of a_speclal tax for the | purpose of raising $25.000 for the enlarge- i ment of the school buildings. There were | [ 409 votes cast in favor of the proposed lax levy and 61 against it. In calling the election the School Direct- ors stated that money was absolutely nec- | essary to enlarge the accommodations for the pupils now attending the schools and | to relieve the congested condition of many of the rooms. It required a two-thirds vote, the same as in bond elections, to carry the day in favor of the Improve- | ments, and, while there was not much doubt but that ghe proposition would car- ry, the friendk of the movement were out early and worked assiduously all day, and when the polls were closed were gratified at the result, which was announced within a couple of hours after the closing of*the polls. With the money it is purposed to add four rooms to the McKinley, Whittier and Lincoln schools and build a four-room | bullding_at College avenue and Russ street. During the year between 400 and 500 children have been added to the rolls an Increase of 10 per cent. The overflow has been distributed among rooms aiready | full. Pupils belonging to one district have been forced to go great distances to schools in other districts. Teachers have been compelled to teach two, three and some of them as high as four divisions, all packed into one room.

A chimney 115 feet high will, with- out danger. sway ten inches in a wind, | 5220—a net loss of 141. are the incontrovertible testimonies as contalned in the marshal's reports from | these three cities: The report from Oakland last year | showed 5361 children under 5 years of age. while this year's report shows only Of children be- tween 5 and 17 years last year's re- port showed 17,797, while this year's shows 17,847, a gain of only forty. Berkeley's report last year showed 1193 children under 5 years, while this year's shows 1183, a decrease of ten. There were 3717 children between the ages of 5 and 17 last year and 3910 this year—a gain of only 193, against the gain of 340 for children between these | ages for the previous year. The total net increase of school census children | for the year was 183, and while this was | going on the entire population was in- creased by 1246. Alameda’s report shows a decrease of 108 for children under 5 years the figures being ]330 for 1902 and 1222 for 1903. For the children between 5 and 17 the total this year is 4128, as against 4132 for last year. At the same time the total population has increased from 17,359 to 17,665, a gain of 306. The sum total of all this figuring is that there are now 259 less children un- der the age of 5 years in these three cities than there were a year ago. All this in the face of the fact that there | has been an increase of 1552 in Berkeley and Alameda and a very great but known increase in Oakland. It all goes to bear out President Roosevelt's race suicide theory. The school authorities are trying to account for it but they are having a hard time doing it. Superintendent of Schools McClymonds thinks it is due to a moge accurate census this year, while others are saying it is the fault of peculiar local conditions, such as the moving away of factorfes, and so on. But they can’t explain away the fact that the general population has increased while | the infant population has decreased. e ——— LOS ANGELES, May 16.—County School Superintendent Keppel has completed his foot- ings on the school census for the county.
