One of the most umiccotiutahli1
things occurred last Monday even
ing In .St. Johns. A school meet
iug was held, and it had been thor
oughly advertised by the posting of
printed noticcx, mention in 1 he
Review and the distribution of
dodgers. Pmhahly every school
patron ami tax payer in the city
knew of the holding of this pattie-

a large sled jolt irom those liable
to be affected.
The street line of Richmond
stieut must be as crooked and wob
bly us a pug dog's tail. Hvery
time a controversy comes up in the
council in tegaid to the vaiious
streets or water fi out in the vicinity
of Richmond street its lines begin
to wander. Then one of those tan
booted men who squints along a lit
tle brass thing is sent out from town
by the city engineer, Thesqiiintei
locates the lines of the stieet at so
much w squint. Within the past
two yea is the city has had this line
located twice at an expense of near
;?ioo. One man with a ttiod lo
cated the stieet nine feet to one side
of u certain stake. Later he lo
cated it at a point nine feet on the
opposite side of the stake, or eigh
teen feet away from where he fust
located the line. Now the council
is going to hiie an expeit to locate
the line of Richmond stieet. Some
-K'oplc think the city is being bun
coed in regard to this alleged engi
neering, but as long as the man in
the tan boots does not complain the
people are jniweiless to stop it.

A LARGER DOCK.
Prom a remnrk made by n coun
cilman who has been very active in
politics and who is looked upon as
authority ns to what the council
will or will not do, there is no doubt
but that the Marine Iron works will
be presented with the valuable strip
of water frontage it desirts near its
plant. One of the slogans of the
present council before it got into
ollicc was "bt. Johns must Have a
large public dock n dock nt which
boats can laud 1" Hy exchanging
tlie portion of Charleston street
nsked for by the Murine Iron works
for the same frontage alongside of
the present city dock, .St. Johns can
secure what it desires.
Is the present council going to
throw this opDortuuity nway f
A majority of the present council
was elected two yenrsagoon n pint
form declaring that no streets shotilt
be given away. A prominent mem
her of the Republican club, under
whose manipulation n majority of
the present council were elected to
office, also declared that "None of
the candidates of the Republican
club, if elected, will give any streets
11 wav I" And the man who mnde
the above statement is now a mem
bcr of the council.
Another plan is to "lease the
street for manufacturing purposes."
The people cannot be hoodwinked
by this sort of play. Let tlie conn
ell lensc the piece of ground so that
a larger and better dock may be
owned by the city. I.et them work
for the interests of St. Johns, and
not for that of a concern who looks
with coveteous eyes on adjoining
piotietty.
It might be well to state that The
Review bears no ill will towards the
Marine Iron works. The iron men
see 11 chance of securing sixty feet
of valuable water front by asking
for it, and are using the council to
obtain it. Pmhahly John Jones V
Co. would tlo the same thing.

THE PHILANTHROPIST.
Hit Partlttent but Futile Efforts In
First Aid to th Injured.
An elderly philanthropist who
wns walking homo late one night
from his club passed n prosperous
looking npartment house nnd no
ticed it man in evening clothes lying
motionless on the sidewalk. "Pirat
uid to the injured," murmured the
philanthropist ns ho shook tho in
valid gently. "Wind's the mnttcr,
my dear sir?" "NoVn'; jcs tnkin'
rest," said tho sleeper. "Whcro do
you live?" pursued tho li. P.
"Thish 'partmcnt house, thir' floor
front." This wns rather a lnrgo
freight order for tho old gcntlo
mnn; but, being willing to do good,
Sic put tho invalid on his shoulder,
boro him laboriously to tho third
landing, found his room nnd tossed
him into n largo curtained bed in
tho front of the apartment.
Tho philanthropist Immediately
went downstnirs and out into tho
street. And tho first thing ho saw
on the sidewalk wus nppnroiitly tho
same man ho had just carried up
stairs. "Strange, strangol" mutter
ed tho philanthropist, leaning over
the mnn. "Where- do you live, my
dear 1111111?" "Thir lloor front,"
replied tho fellow almost innudibly.
So tho philanthropist picked him
up, groaned" up to the third floor
front and again dumped his snor
ing burden into tho mysterious enn
oiiied and curtained bed. And for
the third time ho went out into tho
street and for tho third timo found
what appeared to ho tho sumo man
in tho Mimo place, lying in tho snmo
ntlltudo. "Whore do you live?" ho
nsked, troinl'iing with excitement.
"Thir" lloor front," said tho man
very faintly. "I must bo going in
sane!" groaned tho P.. P. as ho ran
for the janitor. "Janitor, for heav
en's sake, tell me how many young
men nn living in your third floor
front?" he gunned.
"Wan, and lie do bo tho divvil's
own," ciiid the janitor. "Is ho trip
lets?" was tho next question. "lie
is not." "Well, how does it come,
then, that I havu carried this fel
low upstairs to his room twice, put
him into Hint curtained hod to tho
front, yet each time llnd him hero
on the sidewalk beforu I lutvo timo
to got downstairs?"
"Where did you my you put him
in his room?"
"Why, 1 put him in that largo
curtained bed lo tho front."

How Ho Qot Invlttd to Dint.
A story U told of a coup!o of
farmers who live a few miliu apart,
according to the H11IT11I0 Times.
One day one called on tho other,
happening around at dinner timo.
Tho pornon called upon, by tho way,
wns rather a penurious old fellow.
Ho nut nt the table enjoying his din
ner. The vinilor drew toward tho
table, expecting tho old farmer to
invito him to dine. Tho old farm-1
cr kept on eating.
"What s the news tin y
neighbor? Xo news, on? '
rotir way,
"Xo, I bolievo not."
Pntfontlv 11 thought struck tho
visitor. "Well, yes, friend, I did
hear of one item of news that is
worth mentioning."
"I In! What is it?"
"Xeighbor John has a cow that
hits live calves."
"Is that so? (load gracious I
What in thunder does tho fifth calf

Hat Near th Equator.
U is generally supposed that
equatorial Africa is the warmest
place 011 earth, but it is not. Tho
nights in the torrid zono frequently

n pair of blankets. During tho hot-'
tM month in central Africa tlie1

torinl Africa is not low laud, not a
steaming jungle, ns is commonly
supposed. The hind rises from the
count, plateau 011 plateau, until it

Tho Widow Ho Married. j
A clergyman who wa a widower
had three grownup duughters. llav-i
ing occasion to go nway 011 n visit
for u few weeks, ho wrote homo
from timo to time. In one of his
letters ho informed them that he
had "married n strapping widow j
with six children."
You may iiiumino whnt it stir this
created in tho household. When tho
vicar returned home one of his'
daughters, her eyes red with weep
ing, snid:
"Where's tho widow vou married,
father?"
"Oh, 1 married her to another

WHY WE DO SOME THINGS
Certainly Not Baeau We Look Pretty
When We Do Them.
A mnn docs not take off his hat
to it lady because ho looks nicer
without it. Th6 instance of bald
men would bo nlono sufficient to up-
ict such nn explanation,
lie does it because you must post
tivcly do something when you moot
a lndv or vour whole civilization
goes to pieces, nnd taking off your
hat is easier than taking off your
nccktio or lying faco downwnrtl on
the pavement.
The primary point is that you
must do something, not that you
must do something beautiful. And
as long as cultivated people cannot
grasp this fact they will find their

what they often consider the dull
ness of the middle classes or tho
vulgarity nnd morbidity of tho
poor.
In so fur ns the bourgeois thinks
it more important to wear n Sundny
hut than n becoming lint ho is per
fectly right. It is more important;
tho religion of the tribe is mora im
portant than tho pretty nppenrnnco
of Mr. Jones.
In so far ob the charwoman thinks
it more important thnt her nusonnu
should have a "proper" funeral than
a pretty funeral she is pcricctiy
riclit. It is more important. De
corum is as permanent a human
sentiment its art nnd n much more
pressing one. Any healthy savage
would understand tho charwoman's
sentiments exactly and perhaps
alarm her with demonstrations of
barbaric approval.
lie would also understand per
fectly the sentiment of a Sunday

It has Ix-en a source of interest

liud such quantities of singing birds
