vehicle tax law passed by the Council.
It was contended by Kellaher's attor
ney that the present ordinance is in-.
valid because it is discriminating in
eliminating from Its provisions wagons
operated by hawkers and peddlers.
Hawkers and peddlers are taxed In an
other ordinance, and for this reason the
Council did not include them in the gen
eral vehicle license ordinance.
When Kellaher made his successful
eght against the previous vehicle ordi
nance, he succeeded in obtaining a de
cision from the State Supreme Court de
claring it Invalid on the ground that it
discriminated in requiring fees from
trucks operated with horses and not
from automobile trucks.
The present suit will be decided by
Judge Gatens after briefs have been filed
by the attorneys on each side.

THE CONSTITUENTS OF THE AT.
MOSPHBHK. The atmosphere is com
posed mainly of two elementary gasea
oxygen and nitrogen. The oxygen is
the great supporter of life and com
bustion, and is the agent employed by
nature in those cleansing processes
chief among which is "decay;" while
the nitrogen serves to dilute the oxy
gen, and keep its action within the
proper lim'ts. These two gases are
present in the air in the proportion of
20.9 per cent of oxygen to 79.1 per cent
of nitrogen by volume, or, roughly, '1
volume of exygen to four volumes of
nitrogen. Besides these, however, we
find In the atmosphere traces of other
bodies, some of which, like water va
por, carbon dioxide, and ammonia, are
necessary for the carrying on of na
tures processes: while others are the
true Impurities, and generally have a
local origin.
The oxygen used up daily by pro
cesses of animal life, combustion, and
decay, amounts, according to tlie calcu
lations of Faraday, to no less than
three and one-half million tons; and
it is replaced in the atmosphere by
the products evolved by these actions i
namely, water vapor and carbon diox
ide. Yet analyses continued over the
past hundred years have failed to de
tect any diminution in the Quantity of
oxygen or increase in the amount of
carbon dioxide; so that it is manifest
that nature must have at hand some
method not only for the removal of
carbon dioxide from the air, but also
for the production of oxygen, as other
wise the atmosphere would rapidly de
teriorate and become unfit to support
life.
The main factor in this marvelous
natural work is to be found in vege
tation; the waste products from the
animal world being utilized for build
ing up the vegetable kingdom an ac
tion by which the oxygen is replaced
In the atmosphere, and keeps It In a
condition fit for breathing, while other
Impurities are partly washed out from
the air by rain, and partly oxidized
and destroyed by ozone. The wonder
ful power of diffusion possessed by
gases is the chief factor in keeping
the composition. of the atmosphere con
stant, as, aided by air currents and
wind, it keeps the whole of the gases
present so thoroughly intermixed that
it took scient'fic observers half-a-cen-tury
to discover whether these gases
were really only m'xed together in tha
atmosphere or in chemical combina
tion. (To be continued-Friday.)
