1 These Is no surer Way of determin
3ig the growth of an American mu
nicipality in respect of material devel
opment than by comparing the relation
which its paved streets bear to ita un
paved. The civil engineer is an impor
tant functionary in the foundation of
municipal corporations in the United
States, and especially in such of them
as are in the region west of the Alle
ghanies. But street pavements are ex
pensive, and it is not until a city is
opulent enough to enjoy the luxury of
n big municipal debt and a large credit
that the question of modern and im
proved pavement secures adequate at
tention. In Boston, for instance, one of the old
citiea, there are 312 miles of paved and
140 miles of unpaved street. In Balti
more there are 306 miles of paved and
only 47 miles of unpaved streets. In
Philadelphia there are 942 miles of
paved and 433 miles of unpaved streets.
But in the newer cities of the country
this condition is reversed, and Chicago,
which has 1,000 mile of paved, has
1,500 miles of unpaved streets. In St.
Louis the number of miles' of paved
streets is 370 and of unpaved 500. In
Omaha there are 82 miles of paved
ttreets and 450 miles of unpaved. In
Minneapolis, a city which is growing
rapidly in population, there are 98
miles of paved and 800 miles of un
paved utreets. In Brooklyn there are
515 miles of paved and 999.5 mile of
unpaved streets. The pavement of
Brooklyn street, which is now a sub
ject of local grievance and complaint,
shows a certain (backwardness, which
it is expected the Greater New York
project will do away with by making
available the municipal credit neces
r.ary for the issuance of bond for new
pavements. At the present time
more than 260 mile of Brooklyn streets
more than one-half the whole length
of paved street have the primitive,
unsatisfactory and unpopular cobble
stones. There are 110 miles of street
paved with granite, 60 miles, especial
ly in the neighborhood of the parks
and parkways, macadamized; 44 miles
paved with Belgium blocks, 40 miles
with asphalt, and one mile with a still
more primitive method, practically un
known to New York, though quite fa
miliar In Philadelphia brick pave
ments. A meeting was held in the
annexed district of Brooklyn lot week
for the purpose of agitating the ques
tion of the improvement of the pave
ments of that city, but in this respect,
as in nome others, Brooklyn, for ob
i.nm reasons, is much behind New
York.
In this citv there are no streets
puved with brick, and there is lees than
one-quarter of a mile of cobblestone
pavement in all. This Is to be found
in one of the streets of the Ninth ward.
There is a snmll section of town a par
tion of one street paved with wood,
but wooden pavements have long ago
been voted a failure in practical opera
tion in New York. The city has 185
miles of crnntte, H2 miles of maoad
utilized roads and streets, 94 miles of
!i.xplinlt, and 00 mile of Belgium pave
ment. The city of I'hilmli'liiina, mucn
larger territorially than New York, has
3:l miles of Belgium block pavement,,
372 of asphalt, 152 macadam, 76 of vetrl
fled brick, U of granolithic, three of
slag, mid nearly 200 of cobblestone.
The growth of an American city Is
shown clearly by the number of miles
of improved pavement in streets, ana
it is believed by public works oflleinls
that after January 1, 1898, there will be
a visible improvement in all the pave
ments of the city outside of it present
boundaries. N. Y. Sun.
Ilefore Vaccination.
Before the introduction of vaccinv
tion, now admirably supplemented by
isolation, smallpox wa never localized,
und it was nlwavs with us. No one was
wife from it. and there was a Herman
tirovcrb to the effect that love and small
pox were the two things from which no
one could hope to escape, i ruRi
worthy estimates fix the annual death
rate from smallpox in England during
the hitter part of the eigh
teenth century at the propor
tion of 3,000 to every 1,000,000 persons
living, which would mean, with our
present population, a death rate from
this cause alone approaching' 100,000 a
year. Even if this estimate is much
too large, there can be no question as to
the enormous difference between then
i and now. It is going too fur to say
with Mr. Hutton that "smallpox, in
spite of all the fuss' mode about it. Is
pretty nearly as extinct ns the plague,'
for though preventive measures keep it
within an extremely narrow compass,
we have seen how readily it may revive
In the year lS'.K) there were only 10
deaths from this disease registered in
the whole of England. Westminster

HE WAS TOO QUICK.
Thl Genial Han Polled the wroM
Rope and Wa Hombled.
Once in awhile everybody meet a
man who seems to regard himself a
another Atlas. The whole world is, in
his opinion, resting upon his shoulders
and he constitutes himself a sort of
public protector. He tells women how
to train their children, gives business
pointers to the men, advises with the
girls concerning their love affairs and
takes the boys into his confidence.
One of these good' soul occupied a
seat in a Payne avenue street car the
other day and it didn't take him long to
get upon familiar term with most of
the other passengers. lie began by
offering a penny to a child that sat near
him.
The littTe one's mother was young
and fair and the good man's generosity
to the child touched her heart. She
smiled at what he said to her and once
he seemed to be upon the point of get
ting confidential, tout the car had
topped and somebody got on. Ihe
genial man immediately picked the
child up and held it upon his knees In
order to make room for the newcomer.
Then he asked somebody at the other
end of the car how the baseball game
had resulted, and informed a young
girl across the amie mat a ounaie was
about to slip from her lap, after which
he jounced the child up and down,asked
how old it was, where it lived and what
it papa's name was.
Presently a lady wanted to leave the
car. The conductor was Dusy taiKing
to a passenger upon the rear platform,
nd didn t notice that anyone was
motioning to him from inside.
"These conductors are very careless,"
said the genial man, depositing the
child in the scat that he had occupied
himself, and preparing to ring the bell.
By this time the car was very close to
the crossing at winch the lady wanted
to get off, and he had to hurry.
So it happened that he grasped the
wrong rope and rang the fare register
instead of the bell.
That aroused the lion-in. the conduce
tor, who ruslied into the car and wanted
to know what the genial man meant.
"Can't you see that that lady want
to leave the car?" was the reply.
Well, you can t stop it by ringing up
fares," snarled the conductor. "That'll
cost you an extra nickel."
"No it won't," said the genial man,
petting mad.
"It will or you'll get off the car."
"I guess not. I happen to know the
president of this company.
"Oh, yes! That's an old gag. They
all try to work it. iou give me a
uckel, or I'll put you off."
The genial man's face had become
very red, and seeing that the conductor,
who was big and brawny, would not be
bluffed, he handed out a nickel.
Meantime the car had gone about two
blocks beyond the crossing at which
the innocent cause of all the trouble
had wanted to get off, so it was neces
sary for her to walk back.
When the car had got started again.
the genial man leaned over to the fair
young mother who sat near him and
said:
If these conductors were not
brought to time occasionally passen
gers would not be allowed to exercise
any rights at oil. I'm sorry there were
liulies present when this trouble oc
curred. If there hadn't been I wouldn't
have allowed that fellow to ever take
his car back to the barn!" Cleveland

KfTorU In England to Encourage fdioilliorn
Dairy Qualities.
The scheme of the council of the Shorthorn
society to encourage the dairy qualities ol
Shorthors does not appear to be In exuberant
health, says The Stockbreeder! Magazine. At
the Bath and Weit show one might very reason
ably have expected that from a dairying district
the oclety'i ichoine would meet with all due
encouragement. But what wa the remit! We
think that those who wer responsible lor foist
ng the scheme upon the Hhorthorn society
must have felt that It wa failing to effect
what It was loudly hoped It would manage to
accomplish. The class ol cows was not ol th
character that It was Intended to encourage,
and the cluss seemed to arouse little passing
Interest among tho onlookers. At th time that
the scheme was taken In hand by the council
ol the society we protested elsewhere against
the tirsurpatloa ol the society's right to take
disinterested view of the different types
ol
Shorthorns. That must be left to the good
sense or Individual taste of breeders. But there
was one thing that wa properly within the
province of the council, and that was no en
deavor to put down overfeeding, which Is proh
ably the moat serious evil that breeders have lo
contend with, The facta cannot be dl-puted
Many good breeders have became alien to the
show ring because ol the evil attendant effect
of the high feeding necessary for profitable
showing, At the same time, by the supresslon
of overfeeding the milking qualities of the cow
would have a chance to show themselves and
the evil In process of time correct Itsell. One
thing is clear vis, that the dairy prise scheme
Is falling to bring the showyanl Hhorthorn
to the ordinary pall filling standard.

BIS FORTUNE ON ONE BAND.
Young Cattle Grower Who Was Rained by a
Game of Cards.
'It is rather tough," remarked an o'd
attleman, "lo see a man'a fortune swept
sway by gambling, but it is harder still
when you see that the mao bag been
duped. Years ago I was intimate with
young chap who saved a little money
go West and grow up witb the
country. He left ns, and ooe day wrote
that be was coming south witb a fine lot
estero horses. The day o-ime and
passed, but the obap did not appear. In
month or two, when he bad been given
p as lost, a letter came arid told that be
had lost everything, and was book on a
ranoh working on a salary. I did not
now the cause of bis downfall until
several years later.
"Smith WalKer, when a boy, always
anted t bet money oo anything. Be
fore Walker left for tbe West, however,
bis father begged him nsl to gamble,
and the bo; gave a half promise tbat be
would stop. But be didn't. He was
ard-working and industrious, aod let
gambling alone. He was part owner of
ranch, and one winter deoid'd to trade
bis shares for good horses and oome
south. He bad about 125 yohoj horses
when be fixed bis affairs and started to
eave the rancb for tba markets. It was
oold winter, lbs snow was falling
heavily, and it was not a desirable trip
for a man more aooustomed than Walker
to tbe wild life of tbe plains. But he
was determined to stiok it out.
"Lute one afternoon tbe drove reaohed
country house, where Walker decided
to speDd tbe bight, and remain tbeie
until tbe weather moderated, it be oould
get tbe proper shelter for bis stock. He
had little difficulty about thi, for tbe
man at tbe bouse bad a big stable, which
was not occupied. Walker saw his
horses properly boused and fed, and
ban be went iu to thaw. There was a
blizztrd, whioh ooutinued tbroueh the
ight, and at daybreak Walker found
tbat be would have to remain longer.
"Several other snowbound travelers
were at the plane, and one young chap
pa'tioular tried to tanks himself
greeable. He mnat have been a gam
bler, from bis talk, and tbat afternoon
be began playing oar J 8 witb tbe hotel
man. They played for grains of corn,
and as Walker sat by and watched them
he got interested, aod bis old gambling
ever returned. A third man joined in,
aod after a time Walker said be would
play. Poker was tbe game, end at first
there was no money consideration, but
this got slow and tiresome. Welker
proposed to make a sin ill limit and this
as agreeable.
''The sporty yonog man was named
Welob, This game had progressed un
til Walker tbouvht it time to make a
bigger limit, aod bis word went. After
a time, however, luck jumped to Welch
and be won fast. Walker wai dealing
and ben he took up bia oards he found
four nines. Welob had opened tbe pot
and Walker raised it. Tbe botel man
did not come in. and for a while tbe
raisins was lively. Finally Welob snid
be would a til 1 for oards, taking two
Walker stood pat. When the betting
began Walker hud put up all the cash he
bad, and Welch started it witb a round
sum. Walker said he had do more ready
oash, but Welch snid be bad n hand tbat
could not be beaton, and tbat he did not
propose lo make any eveu show.
I have 125 bead of horses out there
in the pen, and I'll bet tbe last one of
them tbat I have you whipped,' said
Walker.
"And that,' answered Welch , 'forces
me to fetob tbe money, which otherwise
would have kept concealed, I sm
traveling with a big wad, bat I think we
are friends now, and m.b dy will rob m",
not any of you, at least. I'll cover your
bet. Mr. Walker.'
"Witb that Welch put his cards face
down and fastened them to tbe table
with bis knife. Then be- hurried np
stairs. He returned with a satchel.
" 'What value do you pot on your
stook.if you want to bit all?' he aske-i.
" Tbers are 123 head, snd puttioir Ihe
price at 830 each, wbiob is low, I'll bold
the lot for $3750 Cover that am mot for
tbe show down.'
"Welob brounht out a package of bill",
counted off tbe amount required and
shoved it into tbe middle nt the table.
"Walker threw down his four nines
and looked up inquiringly. Welon
jerked the knife blade from the table.
Four lens here,' be said, aud with tuht
he raked iu the money. Walker the
next mornlug set out m tbe soow buck
to his old ranoh, a penniless mau. tin
helpers were hired by Welch.
"A year later Wslker got a letter from
the hotel mu. 'I am on my death bed,'
be wrote, 'and tbe dootor tells me tbat I
am here tor a short time only. But be
tore I go I want to make a confession.
Too were obeated tbat nigbt. After you
homed Ihe oards and banded them to

deok, which bad been fixed. I w bis
pal. The money he brought down was
grenn good, which yon did not deteot
in tbe dark, Welch was a professional
