Devery's testimony in the Churchill case ought to add many important particulars to the remarkable fund of fufofmation about red-light conditions revealed in the trial of tho Fitth street precinct’s acting captain. There fs no question about the “Big Chief's" knowledge of ‘these conditions. He knows, And if he happens to be in Toquacious mood and feels like unbosoming himself he an furnish the public with some Interesting reading ' matter concerning them. Whatever the result may be of this trial of Sergt. Churchill for wilful neglect of duty, the recent testimony {in the case has shown a queer state of affairs !n the pre- cinct, William Blume, a business man, testified yester- day that at various times a whole row of dwellings in First street, nine of them in all, had been used as dis- prderly houses. Other business men in the viock were ‘well enough aware of the existence of these resort several of them, by Blume’s testimony, exist as such to- day. Granting that they have continued in business up to the present time by Churchill's “wilful neglect,” by whose oversight are they still permitted to ply their neferious trade? If the business men know is it neces- sary for the police to remain {gnorant? Going Slow.—The New York Central road ts still “making plans’ for Its tunnel Improvements. It is well to be right before you go ahead, and the Indications are that the Central will be very, very right before tt 1s ready to pro- ceed with its promised changes, NEW POOR BOY STANDARD, ‘There seems to be need of a new Oliver Optic to write Sunday-school biographies. In the old Iterature of this sort the poor but deserving youth attracted his future employer's notice by some deed of boyish manliness, was offered a place inthe store at $2 per week and hy honest and unremitting effort from early morn to dewy eve rose to $10; whereupon the appreciative merchant gave the worthy young man his daughter's hand and a house and a junior partnership. The case of Bertram Cutler shows how things have changed. New times, new manners, faced young man of twenty-two, fond of teunis and flan- nels and wont to bathe oftener than Sunday-school heroes of an earlier generation. He is a farmer's boy, as such heroes usually are, and after four years’ employment in Mr. Rockefeller’s office he holds $12,000,000 in United States Stecl stock, as the records of that corporation show. Bertram is an example of the industrious apprentice ! « whom Ben Franklin would have liked to see, “‘Seest thon a man diligent in his calling? He shall stand be- fore kings’—even before oil kings. We are a rich na- tion now and our expansion seems to/include the aspir- {ng poor boy. fhe Battle of the Barrels.—Tho Brewers’ Trust opposes | | the aale of beer in the small kegs known as elghth-barrels and the Coopers’ Trust advocates It, It 1s a pretty quarre as it stan4e, with the honors about easy #0 far. The pubr| Ho's direct interest in it 1s limited to a desire to have the barrels hold enough to go around, THE ROW IN THE SENATT. Whether Bailey choked Beveridge, or only attempted to do so and failed, there seems to be ne doubt that the) gentleman from the Lone Star State approached the Hoosier Senator with belligerent intent. There was al time when personal enconnters within the decorous pre- cincts of the Senate left no uncertainty as to the dam- age inflicted, They are now such as Mr, Pickwick would approve or a French duellist indorse. The point of interest in this latest interchange of per- sonalitics is that the parties to it should take each other's winged words of debate seriously. One would suppose that the skins of Congressmen of long experi- ence lad become so calloused by the frequent impact of bandied epithets as to be no longer sensitive to a simple taunt or an implication of unveracity. We can feel reason- ably sure that in their normal state they would not be. Perhaps the unusua] atmospheric conditions of the very rare June just ended are responsible for the boiling over of Bailey's wrath. Babies tn Demand.—The New York Infant Asylum, which shelters several hundred babies, ts going to close its doors this weck, and the demand for its little charges i» such as to oxctle comment.

THE KAISER’S DINNER DICTUM.,. Kaiser Wilhelm gave orders that the Imperial Yacht Club dinner at Kiel should not consume more than forty- five minutes. The guests did the Kalser's bidding. In exactly three-quarters of an hour from the moment the first oyster crossed the appetite line of the dining yachts- men to the departure of the last sip of cafe noir down ‘the aesophagus of the slowest eater the d.nner was over and the feast of reason and flow of soul was begun. The Kalser insists that forty-five minutes is enough time fo. any man to spend in eating, Ie {s easier than Napoleon, who thought twenty minutes exou, Judged even from the rapld-transit grab-it-quick standpoint of the American mveal-gobbler the Ialser's schedule for a formal dinner seems a leetle mite too swift, Most of our dinners of this sort are stretched over two to four hours, Ours are very talky dinacrs, of course Wo are more given to guff than gourmandizing; we vare more for the rhetoric of the occasion than we do for the roasts, and we are fonder of the old Jokes that are eprung than we ere of the hors d'oeuvres or dessert. Still we would feel that we had been cut down to a fit- teen-cent lunch when we expected a $5 banquet If any! of our war lords like Herr Roosevelt were to restrict the euting time of festa! dinners to forty-five minutes, and ‘we would rise up as one unappeased hungry man and ask him who was running our appetites—ourselyes or the government?

The effect of Intestinal bacteria upon digestion continues to attract experl- menters, Corfining chickens In germ- free cages and feeding them with steril- ized food, Prof, Schottellus has found that they ate ravenously and evidently sesied well, but lost strength and says the Pittsburg Gazette. Other tests gave positive proof pf the necessity of intestinal bacteria to nutrl- ion. Chickens hatched In germ-free quarters fhrived on sterilized food for a week, when they began to decline in weight and etrength, and they were then divided into a group fed on sterilised food and one given food contuining bacteria, Those of the first grou? all died in a fow days, while the others grew rapidly and were soon Indistin- gulshable from other chickens of the poultry yard ‘These results confirm those of Mme, Metohnikof, who has recorded a great- ly retarded growth in tadpoles kept en- tirely on sterilized food. ——— —— MANIAS OF AUTHORS.
