Many people would like to know the reason for this provision approved by the Public Service Commission in the newly-announced station scheme for the coming extensions of the elevated service. The plan provides for express stops on the Third avenue line | at City Hall, Chatham Square, Canal street, Twenty-third strent, Forty-second gstreet—-then jumps to One Hundred and Sixth street, | with the last stop at One Hundred and Twenty-fifth street.

R. ‘I. in an effort to make traffic less dangerous, especially for children, Col. Williams, President of the B. R. T., declares the conse- quences of accident are enough “to frighten us all into taking such stepa as would help to avoid the very great financial losses and the great amount of suffering.” he company and ‘ae committee will call the attention of the public to the means of eliminating avoid- able accidents. It might be a good idea to give the public a chance to call ihe attention of the company and the committee to such safety provi- ons as may occur to it. Carelessness and indifference on the part of people generally arc no doubt responsible for many street acci- dents. How to get people to take care of themselves is always a problem. , Tt would be interesting to see if by encouraging them io work out their own safety schemes they could be induced to put more heart into the job. _— As regards disease and death, !ast week was the healthiest in the history of the city.
