Mayor of Schenectady Finds New Source for Municipal Revenue. What may prove to be a new source of revenue t.o Schenectady, N. Y., was dis covered by Mayor George R. Lunn while passing along a downtown street. Dig King for the foundations of a new build ing was in progress, and the excavations had been carried under the sidewalk to about the curb line, with the evident in tention of using the space thus obtained for a cellar vault, probably to hold coal. Tire owner of the property was standing near, and ho fell into conversation with the mayor. Before the two parted the mayor had evolved the question whether or not the city should be paid for the use of the ground under the sidewalk as a cellar. Later Mayor Lunn said he would have the matter looked up to ascer tain if all fluoh cellars, present and future, could not be made to pay a rental to the city as the real owner of the ground In which they ure made. He said the question with him was yet In an en tirely speculative stage, but if it were de cided in favor of the city he would seek legislation authorizing the collection of such rentals.

PARKS OF CAPITAL CITY ARE NOW AT THEIR BEST Squares, Circles, Triangles and Larger Res ervations Filled With Flow ering Shrubs. The season has come when the parks of Washington are in their best estate. These sodded public spaces, with flower ing shrubs, trees and plants, are fresh and beautiful in their wealth of green and color. Abundant sprang rains and favorable weather has put vegetation in excellent condition, and the parks never looked more beautiful than now, as mid summer approaches. The rigors of the past winter -were hard upon some trees and shrubs In the public parks, and some of them were killed, but the work of the I gardeners has now removed the dead I trees and shrubs and filled in the places i left vacant with something new, so that the loss is not observable, at least on casual inspection. Bach year the parks of Washington, big and little, become more attractive under the intelligent care given them by the officer in charge of public buildings and grounds, through the liberal appro priations afforded by Congress. At all seasons of the year, but specially in spring and early summer, these govern ment reservations, as they technically are known, are much admired by visitors who see them for the first time and com pare the wealth of park spaces her? with the dearth of them in other cities. The parks are also a source of much satisfac tion to Wkshingtonians, though they are a part of the daily sights to which their eyes grow dim from constant viewing. Washington Leads American Cities. Washington has more parking space, better arranged for public observation, and lending itself better to the purposes of the landscape gardener than any city of North America. A greater acreage or parks is not claimed for the National Capital, but In this city there is a wider diffusion of open spaces in the peculiar arrangement of streets and avenues. The parking spaces are scattered over the entire city, in big and small parcels of ground which have been converted into beauty spots, sodded, adorned with shrub bery and flowers, and many of them the sites of statues and flowing fountains. The effect In the aggregate as one passes fro?n point to point thrcugh the city is a continuous picture of marvelous variety and delight to the eye. The effect of these reservations, with the wide parking provided in front of residences, which private enterprise has made quite as beautiful as the public spaces, gives to Washington a grandeur not equaled in any American city. The variety and dimensions of the city's parking spaces are Impressive. In the central group of parks, including tHe Capitol grounds, the Mali. Monument lot and the white lot, there are 336.00 acres, of which 356.21 acres are unoccupied by buildings and open to public view. Poto mac Park has 7IW.4 acre?, a large part of which is now under improvement and ac cessible to automobiles, < nrriages and pe destrians. Zoological Park has 170 acres, which, with" the deep valley of the creek and the wooded heights. Is one of the most picturesque public grounds to be found anywhere. Rock Creek Park has 1,005 acres improved with an extensive system of driveways and additions to the natural scenery. These parks together contain 2,881.9 acres, in Itself a large al lotment of ground to public uses for a city the size of the capital. Beauty of Semi-Public Grounds. Added to these parks is a group of semi-public grounds about the public In stitutions .which Increase the beauty of the city. They are the grounds about the Soldiers' Home of 502 acres, the park about the Government Hospital for the Insane, of 363.33 acres and numerous other parks of a similar nature, aggre gating 2.495.4S acres. But the public spaces which come most directly under the eye of the visitor to the city are the smaller squares, triangles, circles and trapezoids, which lie at the intersections of the streets and avenues throughout the city. The squares and circles, which number twenty-six, ranging In size from one acre to twenty-six acres, contain 121.70 acres, with an average size of 4.08 acres. Besides these more pretentious res ervations are 275 smaller ones, ranging in size from 400 square feet to 25,000 square feet, and nearly all of them in a high state of improvement. The government allows between >150,000 and $200,000 annually for the care of pub lic buildings and grounds, of which $16,000 annually is spent upon the parks alone. Nature's Economizing By Dr. Frank Crane. Nature Is an old rogue. She almost pulled the wool over my eyes, but I found her out. She pretends to be extravagant. In reality she is economical. You would think from the billion of eggs that never hatch (as of fishes and Insects) and of blossoms that never become fruit, and of babies that never grow up, and from all the wasted seed, useless rain, overplus of light, and lavishness of beauty and of force, that she was as spendthrift as a drunken sailor, and prodigal as a fool with his money. There Is where you would be mistaken. For she Is like a woman who throws money out of the windows by day and sneaks around to pick it every penny up by night. She seems a rollicking, devil-may-care Jade; she Is thrifty as a housewife. She would have you Imagine her a mighty waster, with her huge offal heaps and river sewage; secretly she-is as saving as a French cook and uses over every bit and scrap. And she has to be. Her supply Is lim ited. More, It is nicely balanced. She is only allowed so much matter to start with. And that has to do her forever. She has to use everything over snd over. Hers Is a great second-hand shop. Nothing Is new. The wood Is burning In my fireplace: ft Is being changed to ash and gas; these go Into the air and the ground; in time they are taken up by trees through the pores of root and leaf; they thus become wood again for my great-grandchildren's fires. And It is far from being so simple as all that. For at a thousand points along the circle of transformation the gas and ash may enter into other combinations and become the man In front of the fire instead of the wood in the fire, or the .food on the table, or the dog begging bbe side the table, or the flowers in the vase, or any of a myriad of other things. And In all this gigantic mix, juggle and twist, nature keeps track of every atom, weighs every molecule, sees that every cent of expense is recorded on the cash register, and requires every force to punch the time clock. There are only seven viglntlllion and three atoms (if you don't believe it, count 'em!) and they have to be every thing. It's a stock company performance. Each actor must take many parts. Here's a little speck of dust on my thumbnail. What it has been would as tonish you. It was on the lip of Bloody Mary when she lost her head; before that it was a part of the eye of Dante's Beatrice; it has been carrot, parrot, ar row and barrow, slave and master, eater and food, gland and secretion, eye and picture, ear and harp, ring and finger, and is still young and vigorous, just as full of radio-activity, electricity, and all sorts of strange cohesive, adhesive, ilfe glvlng and life-destroying powers as it was in the days when ichthyosauri were the fashion and such a thing as a man, homo or homunculus had not been heard of. And nature keeps track of it all, saves every bit of string. There is no core, no rind, no peeling, no remains. By the way, di'd you ever reflect how significant it was that Jesus, after He had fed the five thousand on the miracu lous increase of the loaves and Ashes, told His disciples to "gather up the fragments that nothing be lost"? NEW YORKERS WORKING HARD ON STATE ROADS Taxpayers of Empire State Are Spending Millions for Improved Highways. From the Minneapolis Journal. In the State of New York there are ap proximately 80,000 miles of road, of which about 3,000 miles have been improved as state or county highways, 3,000 have been macadamized as town roads, 8,000 have been Improved with gravel as town roads, 40,000 miles have been shaped to some extent, and 29,000 miles remain in their original condition. In 1905, by a consti tutional amendment, $50,<?00,000 of bonds were authorised for the purpose of con structing the state and county highways. Beginning with the year 1903 the appro priations made annually have been, re spectively $5,000,000, $3,000,000, $3,000,000, $5,000,000, $11,000,000 and $8,000,000, mak ing a total appropriation to date of $35,000,000. In addition to this bills were passed by the last legislature for so-called "ex pedited routes" amounting to $13,055,000, leaving a balance unappropriated of $l,045,tX)0. At the present time there have been constructed approximately 2,940 miles of completed hlgnways and 710 miles are under contract, and most of them are nearlng completion. These contracts provide for the remaining unim proved portions of a highway from New York city to Buffalo via Albany, and for the larger part of the hlgnwuy rrom New York north to the Canadian border at Rouses point. "This," says the state highway commission, "will place the State of New York in the front rank as regards continuous construction, the total mileage completed and the amount of money appropriated." In constructing these roads they are divided into four classes: State high ways, the entire cost of which Is borne by the state; county highways, one-half of the cost of which is borne by the state; "expedited routes" (connecting the more Important centers of population and Industry In the state), the entire ex pense of which is borne by the state, and town highways, a part of the cost of which is born by the state. HAS FAST FIRE SERVICE. Catoniville, Md., Elated Over Pos ?enion of Auto Engine. Since the Inauguration, several months ago, of automobile service In t'le flre de partment at Catonsvllle, Md., the effi ciency of the service In that suburb has been greatly increased and the big motor car has proven Its superiority over the slower horse-drawn apparatus many times. The" Catonsvllle fire department claims that their automobile Is the fast est in the state. It is a combined chemi cal and pumping engine, and was built i by. the American-La France Fire Engine Company. The car is of the four-cylin der, seventy-horsepower type and Is ca pable of running sixty-flve miles an hour. The same power used to run the engine operates its pumps. The car is equipped with 1,200 feet two-and-a-half-inch hose, twenty feet flve-inch suction hose, a forty-gallon chemical tank, 200 feet one inch chemical hose, three extinguishers and two ladders. The engine was se cured by the Catonsvllle department largely through the efforts of Dr. Charles Mattfeldt, the president of the board of county commissioners of Baltimore coun ty, who lives at Catonsville. This auto is now several months old, and a Iffrger and more costly motor will soon replace this one, which will be transferred to Gardenville. Vision as Evidence. From the London Times. In Dumfries sheriff court yesterday an application was made by the trustees of the late Robert Turnbull Scott to pre sume the death of his father, Archibald Scott, who went to Australia in 1851 at the time of the gold "rush" and was lost sight of. The object of the action was to complete the titles Of house property. Mrs. Jane Scott said the missing man, Archibald Scott, was her father. He went to Australia in 1851 at the time of the gold "fever," and all efforts to trace him had failed. His eldest sister, Sybella, many years ago told the witness that she was convinced by a vision that her brother Archibald was dead. Her Aunt Sybella informed the witness of certain family traditions, and told her that while she was taking a walk with her father one summer evening she saw her brother Archibald walking along the path to ward them dress>ed in the check suit which he used to wear. She was a little behind her father, and in passing the figure she did not speak, but she turned round to look and make sure. The figure also turned in passing end then disap peared. She afked her father if he had seen anything, but he said "No." and she was certain her brother Archibald had died at the very hour she had seen the vision. The presumption of death was declared. Meerschaum Mines. From the Argonaut. Meerschaum mines at Nemlau have been worked for 2.000 years. It Is claim ed, and the process Is quite simple. The mines, which at one time reached from Kahe to Mihalitch, on the Sea of Mar mora. are concentrated around the city of Eski-Shehr and give employment to some 5,000 miners. The mire? are work ed in the most primitive manner by a foreman and two to five workmen with picks. The depths of the pits vary .great ly and depend upon the depth at which a reddish brown earth is met, which Is the first Indication .of the existence of magneslte. Sometimes this red earth Is found only a few yards beneath the sur face, but ordinarily at a depth of twenty yards, often forty, and even sixty. In this layer of red earth meerschaum is found, disseminated in nuggets of Irregu lar shape. The h'm of these rarely ex ceeds twelve to sixteen cubic Inches; the greater part are of the slse of a walnut. No explosives are used, the ground be ing soft. Almost the entire output of this article is exported to Vienna and thence distributed to the various Eu ropean countries and to the United States, the latter buying only .the finest selections. | LOAN COMPANIES. s2s:;??s. seas LOAN COMPANIES.
