Young For Reform

A most remarkable indorsement of the commission form of government, the Des Moines plan, comes from ex-United States Senator Toung, of Iowa. Politically be is a conservative and, in his brief senatorial career, was a "standpatter." He is an editor and regards the Des Moines plan, with five commissioners, as "quite complete." His views, considered as those of an experienced politician and an editor, are regarded by the National Municipal League as one of the strongest indorsements yet given to the new form of municipal rule. In part, ex-Senator Young says: "The idea in the Des Moines plan has been concentration of power and concentration of responsibility. We haTe abolished party politics. We have, as near as may be established, a business government. The peo'ple are backing the commissioners in every good thing. Publicity is a main factor. We have cleaner Btreets, better pavements, and, in all respects, a better governed city. "A great move forward is made" when partisan politics is abolished." In reference to the strictly political phase of the question, Mr. Young declares: "The principal error in the old style municipal government has been in connecting politics with it. The average American connects politics with every form of government, but this has been especially true of municipal government. In many cities candidates for municipal orfices are nominated by political parties, which ought never to be the case. "It ought to make no difference what a man believes in regard to tariff or reciprocity. He may be as badly mistaken as the most radical insurgent, yet he might make a good member of the municipal government "Clays and Websters are not needed to look after sewer contracts and the laying of pavements. Municipal government needs men who know how to transact business In a businesslike way. Municipal government does not need theorist or dreamer, men are needed who know when contractors are properly doing their work. "In the old form of government, where the responsibilities are so divided, it is impossible to find out who is to blame when anything goes wrong. To have a good government, those who -do right should be praised and those who do wrong Bbould be criticised."

A TURKISH LEGEND. The Red Rose Sprang From a Drop of Mohammed's Blood. "A truly religious Turk looka upon the rose with great reverence," aald a florist. "The rose la beyond question the prettiest flower that blooms, and it was so considered by the Turks many years before tbe conquest of Granada. There is a religious legend generally believed in throughout Turkey that the. red rose sprang from a drop of the great prophet Mohammed's blood. Everything beautiful in nature is ascribed to him. The Turks, there fore, . have great reverence for the flower and allow It to bloom and .die untouched, except on state occasions and for the purpose of making rose water. "After the conquest by the Turks they would not worship In any church until the walls wore cleansed and washed with rosewater and thus purified by the blood of the prophet. It Is used on the body for the same purpose. A Turk --whose conscience Is stung by some art or deed be has committed will caress and pay reverence to the rose to appease tho wrath of the prophet and Allah. With these Ideas inculcated In him from youth it would shock him severeJy to see the pretty flower strewn in the path of a bridal couple, thrown on the public stage or banked up in hundreds at a swell reception or party to be crushed and spoiled In an evening."

DEATH MYSTERY SOLVED BY NOTE IN GUN Albuquerque, N. M., June 10. The finding of a note, secured in the stock of an old shotgun, which was being repaired by a gunsmith at Hagerman, N. M., solves a murder mystery at Austin, Tex., dating from March 19, 1892. The note says: "Eddy, N. M. I killed John Miles with this gun. Did it in cold blood. Tragedy occurred near Austin, Tex. Am now nearing the grave and feel that I have got forgiveness. J. Lb Cumming. "February 4. 1896. "Accident happened March 19, 1892." The gun is the property of George Stanford, who bought it in Carlsbad, N. M., a number of years ago prior to coming to Hagerman. The officers at Austin have been notified.

Natural Curiosity. A West Philadelphia woman who spent last summer in England tells the following story: "We were taking a ride on one of those 'seeing London' automobiles," she said, "and there was a party of tourists aboard. They were Americans, of course, and they were taking the greatest interest in everything they saw from the top of the big motor bus. "As the automobile rolled out of Hyde park and started In the direction of Piccadilly the guide pointed to a big old house surrounded by a high brick wall and shouted through his megaphone: "That is,' he said, 'the town residence of the Duke of C, one of our largest landed proprietors. "A pretty girl on the second seatshe wast about seventeen, and It was obviously ber first trip abroad looked up in sudden enthusiasm. " Oh! she cried. 'Who landed him?" " Philadelphia Times.

Absolutely Pure Tha only bskfxy powder mmSm from Royal Crepe Orosnt cf Tortsr U ALOJ3 Fh3ri!ATE Heart to Heart Talks. By EDWIN A. NYE. Copyright, 1908. by Edwin A. Nye WARNING TO PAR.ENTS. Some time ago a crank shot David Graham Phillips, the author, and then killed himself. His friends said tbe assassin was insane. Of course, but What made him insane? His history shows that as a child be was always brooding over things. He was Inclined to be morose and solitary. And thenHe grew up a man given to spells of melancholy a shrinking, suspicious, self centered person. Of course he grew up that way. What could you expect of Buch a child if let alone? We are learning much more about such children than we knew formerly. The faults of the man in this case were tbe outgrowth of a neglected childhood. Therefore he shrank from those he fancied were his enemies and viewed his friends with suspicion. Now Phillips w-as too busy to take the man at the man's estimate. Therefore the fellow brooded over what he felt was a personal affront and became as to Phillips a monomaniac. But here is the lesson: Have you a brooding child? Does the boy or girl dislike to play with other children, preferring to be with his elders or choosing to be much alone? Be careful of that child. The behavior is not natural. If the child Is not ill there is something wrong in its mental tendencies. It is natural for the child to be active and to associate with other children. You may be nursing a criminal or maniac. You need not worry much about the noisy boy who comes home occasionally with a blackened eye. or the girl who romps like a tomboy. Xook out for tbe quiet one. Of course tbe child may be ill in body or stunted physically. Find out. Consult a doctor. But stop the brooding habit. That way lies insanity or mental or moral perversion. Get the child much in the fresh air. flee, that it becomes physically tired with exercise, insnring sound sleep Bee that It plays with other children. A CHEERFUL STRAP-HANGER Every man who gives his seat in a street car to a lady Is not actuated by politeness. In lots of cases his flannel underwear has been shrunk by be ing washed with poor soap, and stand ing is more comfortable. If Hewitt's Easy Task soap is used. flannels go through the wash without being shrunk and retain their origi nal downy softness. It's five cents a cake and goes farther. x Bunched His Blunders.

Some Gossip Gatherd From , The Gay American Metropolis

New York. June 10. The long continued drought throughout the eastern section of this country is beginning to make itself seriously felt by the shrinkage of the available water sup - ply. Although New York City Is not yet actually running short of water, it's supply of the precious fluid has fallen so low that the city authorities have considered it necessary to put a 6top to wastefullness in the U6e of water for domestic and industrial purposes. An effort is also to be made to reduce as much as possible, the tremendous loss by leakage of pipes. The towns of Wochester county,

In the Hat did not hesitate to serious condition than New lork City. command, but in their hurry Yonkers seems to be in a particularly unfortunate situation this year. Many i to escape down the fire escape they times before did the water supplv of forgot to open the door for the raidYonkers run low, but the town has'- This did not stop the burglars, always been able to get help from i They broke through the door and were New York.

New i busy searching for valuables when poYork City's water supply is so low that icemen arrived upon the scene and the city cannot afford to divert part i captured them. , of its own water supply to help outj The "dog-crazy" women of this city neighboring suburban towns. The au-iare indignant over the recent order thorities. of Yonkers have found it nec- of the United States Treasury Departessary to put the city on half rations ' ment, calling the attention of the coland to keep them thus until an ample (lector of the port of New York to the

rainfall should replenish the waters of the Nepperhan River, which is the source of Yonkers's water supply. The contents of the Grassy Spring reservoir are not to be used except in a case of the most urgent necessity. Under the present conditions it Is rather aggravating to New York's citizens to hear from C. W. Baker, editor of the Engineering News, that New York City could have saved from $50.000,000 to $ 100,000,000 in the cost oj the Catskill Aqueduct if it had utilized the waters of the Ten Mile and Housatonic rivers for its new water sup ply. He says it would have obtained a supply of equal quantity, pressure and purity in half the time and a great saving of money. At the time when the matter of providing additional water supply for New York City was considered four or five years ago, the plan to use the waters of the Ten Mile and the Housatonic rivers was suggested, but it was urged by the opponents of the plan that , owing to the fact that the two rivers have their sources and part of their upper course in Connecticut, there were insurmoun table legal obstacles in the way of carrying out the plan. It was principally for that reason that the Catskill plan was finally adopted. In the opinion of the Rev. Nathaniel Thomas Hafer, pastor of the Trinity Baptist church in Brooklyn, New York is the wickedest city in the country. In fact, so wicked is New York in his opinion, that he has resigned his pastorate to accept a position in the purer moral atmosphere of Detroit. Pastor Hafer is evidently thoroughly disgusted with and discouraged by the depravity of Gotham and in his letter of resignation and a subsequent interview he emptied the vial of his wrath and indignation upon "this Tammanyruled City." He seems to have a particular grudge against saloons, ' brew ery trucks, noisy crowds and the roar ing of elevated trains, which disturb his slumber. The boldness of criminals in New York City is almost beyond belief. Their are burglars In nearly every city but their tactics are mild and gentle compared with those employed by mm

body who may be sleeping, and carry 1 off whatever of any value they can ' find. In Gotham burglars are much bolder. Four of them entered an apartment house on East 116th street the other night, awakened the occupants of an apartment by pounding against the door of their flat. The burglars ordered the occupants of the apartment to leave by. way of the fire espape and to "make themselves scarce" without delay, but to open the fact that under the tariff law animals of American origin, which have been taken out of 4he country, are subject

to duty if brought back to. the United

States. Two out of three women, who ' are in the habit of taking a trip to Europe every year, take their pet dogs with them. Heretofore these "'datf. lngs" could be brought back to the United States, without payment of duty, but the new order puts a stop to this. Whether the framers of the tariff act really intended to make the law applicable to American pet dogs returning from a trip abroad, is not knawn, but as the law is quite plain, the port authorities have no discretion in the matter and Collector Loeb has stated that he would see to it that the law is fully complied with. It seems that some horses, at least, have a higher developed taste for music than the average New Yorker, who knows and enjoys only one kind of. "music," the rankest kind of rag-time. The other day a brass band marching along the street played one of those popular rag-time cacophonies. That proved too much for the more cultivated taste of a horse hitched to a delivery wagon. It bolted and dashed into the midst of the noise-producers, scattering them in every direction and putting an effective stop to the hideous noise. What a blessing it would be if there were more such horses in New York. It la true, there would be a great many more runaways, but it might subdue, at least to some ex tent, the unbearable rag-time chase rampant in New York. Berlin's dog population has been recently decimated as a result of an increased tax on them. r-"e'-'-'-'--"'-4ho oisr IBatfo
