PROPOSE TO ERECT SIGNS jUTATIONS Will Set Forth Various Products Manufactured in Richmond.

POSSESSIONS OF CITY Reasons Why This City Should Be Considered A Home City. Specifications and model drawings of the proposed signs which will be erected in this city at railway stations by the Commercial club have been submitted to the secretary of the organization. Mr. Jordan believes the advertising fifgn plan will be more appropriate than the sign "Progress and Prosper ity" or "Richmond. The Panic Proof City." The model of the proposed sign which probably be accepted consists of a manufacturing view of the city with reasons why Richmond is called the panic proof city and advertises materials which are either exclusively manufactured here or in which Richmond leads and excels. What Richmond is famous for will be shown on one side of the center design and under a head 'Why You Should Locate in Richmond." will be seen on the other side. Facts concerning the city which are put forth by the sign are that Richmond has 125 factories, 34 churches. 150 school rooms, 62 fraternal orders, 250 trains daily and a library of 40,000 volumes. Under the same head that Richmond leads the world in the manufacture of fire fighting helmets, pianos, lawnmowers, threshing machinery, balers, traction engines, grain drills and derailing devices. Reasons why persons should realize that Richmond is a valuable home city are also set forth by facts that Richmond has beautifully shaded streets, a tax valuation of more than $15,000,000, delightful public parks, modern high school, well equipped hospital, fine churches, most sanitary factories, largest hardware jobbing concern, safest banking institutions, one of the best colleges in the middle west, and public spirited citizens.

Uncle Sam Takes Warpath Against "Black Plasue" -That Is Smoke: Evil

BY SYDNEY ESPEY. WASHINGTON. March 8. That raan,? ided and tireless old chap we nele Sam is on the warpath against that modern form of the "black plague." the soft-coal smoke evil. One of Uncle Sam's experts. H. M. Wilson, chief engineer of the experiment station of the United States Bureau of Mines in Pittsburg, thinks the smoke nuisance costs the country six hundred million dollars a year. Here is part of what he has to say on the subject: "The damage done annually in the large towns of the United States by smoke would build in every city of one hundred thousand inhabitants is ! this country a structure equal to the i Congressional Library, considered the most beautiful building in the world. There would be left over enough to ! maintain the army and navy for the current year and then plenty left, af- ' ter that, to build the Capitol at Washj ington. ' "This financial damage, after years I of careful computation and comparison with the reports of scores of ex- . . . . . .. perts. I figure at six hundred million , ,, B .. dollars annually. I If we feel inclined to doubt Mr. Wili: son's conclusions, there are other sources of information to which we may refer. In a recent edition of that highclass and conservative trade paper j known as the "Iron Age" we find the following table: "Annual loss in Cleveland from smoke, $6,000,000. Annual loss in Cincinnati from smoke. $8,000,000. Annual loss in Pittsburg from smoke $10,000,000. Annual loss in Chicago from smoke ; $17,000,000. Estimated annual financial loss In the United States, five hundred mil lion dollars, or seventeen dollars for 'every man, woman, and child, living in large cities. Those figures, it is stated, were obtained from the smoke experts and col lege professors delegated by those cities to estimate the damage, and were only recently published after many months of careful expert work. More than that, it is also stated, the damage goes far beyond the financial losses set forth in the foregoing table. Here are some other items charged to the smoke nuisance: Untold damage done to clothing, furniture, buildings, and trees, streets and parks. Additional expense of lighting I houses and offices in the daytime, due ! to the clouds of smoke shutting out 'the sunlight. j Large increase In the death rate ; from lung diseases, caused by breath ing sulphuric acid and other poisons in the smoke-laden air. " 'Free as air should be changed to 'dear as air." says Mr. Goler. health officer of Rochester, N. Y. "Smokepolluted air," he continued, "attacks all the organs, but chiefly the lungs. The poor man and for a large part of 'his time the bUBin8B man' mu8t hrDn t Vi t Vm rtr Rnnnim stuff, and vhfn he suffers the doctors prescribe for him what it is impossible for him to get in any large town pure air." 1 Uncle Sam's experts declare there is ino good excuse for the failure of the country to rid itself of the smoke evil Bad firing, more than soft coal. It t appears, is to blame for the black clouds that pour forth from so many smokestacks. The government expect j had demonstrated numerous times in Pittsburgh, it is recorded, that they can fire any chimney with the softest coal and yet not raise a single cloud of black smoke. Forty-three per cent of Chicago's smoke, it is said, comes from the engines of railroads passing through the city. To prove that there is no great difference between a factory chimney and a locomotive smokestack so far as the firing principle is concerned the following is quoted from a report of Mr. Angus Sinclair, president of the Society of Locomotive Engineers: "A locomotive fireman in a run of Per Roll, 5c and Up.

t Uncle Sam thinks, when firemen who are unable to learn how to avoid

clouds of smoke from their fires will find themselves without jobs.: The Bureau of Mines has just is sued a bulletin containing not only re ports from all the principal cities 011 their work and pi-ogres in abating the nuisance, but setting forth as well tb conclusions gathered from the work of the bureau in the last few years. No locality, it appears can claim credit for special energy in diminish ing the plague. Richmond. Y is vy ing with San Francisco, and Chicago with Atlanta infighting the sooty fiend. An adjunct of the Smoke Inspection Department of Chicago is filled with cartoons culled from the pages of the leading newspapers theit all vigorously attacking the smoke plague. According to the bulletin, a careful observance of the following rules wil! do much toward reducing the smoke evil: First Education of all firemen so they will fire intelligently Second The installment, wherever practicable, of automatic stokers, or appliances such as blowers and steam Jets for thoroughly mixing a proportion of air in the furnace. Third Laws and ordinances, reas onable. but sufficiently rigid to make offenders against the smoke laws feel that they cannot offend with Impunity. Fourth Th creation of an Intense and widespread public sentiment, tmsed on intelligent knowledge of the baneful efTects of the smoke plague which morally will compel men to respect public opinion in that regard. The officials of the Bureau of Mines have more faith in the last rule than they have in the other three, believing that where the fourth is strong ths preceding three will be observed as a matter of course. Great meeting of Men, Sunday, 3 p. mn at Y. M. C. A. SURVEYOR HAS WORK Will Secure Data on Miles of Turnpikes. County Surveyor Peacock will survey the free turnpikes of the county during the coming summer and endeavor to secure data to show how many miles of turnpikes there are in the county. According to the county commissioners there are 219 miles of. roads; which number includes the two miles of roads recently completed. According to an act now before the state legislature it shall be the duty of the county surveyor to have charge of all gravel roads In counties where there are lees than 200 miles of turnpikes.
