A Well-Treated Thermometer.
A prominent physician of Baltimore
tells of an amusing performance of the
early days of his practice when he was
residing n 'a small town where by far
the majority of the workers wero coal

Put to Bed.
In the Drayton household it is said
that the father of the family has a way
of presenting alternatives to his children
that iuver fails to bring them into line.
"I wjsh yon would speak to Hobby,"
said Mrs. Drayton one night, "I've told
him to take his medicine and then jump
into lied, and lie won't do it. He just
hops found and say he doesn't want to
take the nied.ieiiio and he doesn't want
to go to bed!"
Mr. Drayton stepped to the door nf
Bobby's room and stood there, tall
grave and impresHive.
"Hobby," be said, firmly, "if you don't
take your medicine at once, and then
jump into lied, you will be put to bed,
do you hear me, put to bed, without
having your medicine, at all!"
I'pon which Bobby, alarmed and con-.
fiiHed, swullowed his nllotted portion and
meekly retired for the nijjht. Youth's
Companion.

urged us to be generous in our offering
not to be like a certain mean old man
from Hannibal.
!' 'The meanest man I ever knew,' h?
said, 'lived in Hannibal. He sold Iuh
son-in-law the half of a very fine cow,
and then refused to share the milk with
(lie young fellow, on the ground that he
had only sold, him the front half. The
hod in law was also compelled to pro
vide all the eow' fodder and to carry
water to her twice -a day. Finally the
cow butted the old man through a
barbed-wire fenep, and he sued 1mm boh

IN CITIES
Plans Discussed by League
; "of Municipalities " 1
UNIQUE AND SUCCESSFUL
System in Washington Good Lessons
for Us in Eroupean Countries An
Intelligent and Wcll-Informcd
Electorate Needed.
Norfolk, Va, Sept. 21. "American
towns as a rule have simply been the
subjects of exploitation for the benefit
of seekers after political power or for
what we have come to call graft. We
have sat in grumbling humor through
out this era without -sufficient energy
or public spirit to free ourselves," Ad
miral Chadwlek, U. S. N., told the
League of American Municipalities at
the Jamestown fair. -"
''The situation which we are attack
ing is one of unparalleled national dis
grace, lolil we shall, as a people,
stand on a plane of honesty and earnest
ncss for the public good, our self -satis
faction is but as dead sea fruit. The
living net is that our tiackwardness in
city adminst ration is due to our want
of national backbone, and to a want Of
that widespread intelligence which we
are too wont to boa-st as being ours in a
very high degree.
"The main cause of our failure is in
placing city administration, a profes
sion which demands thorough knowledge
and experience, in the hands of haphaz
ard, short-term men. A mayor with us
is the accident of a day; the same may
be naid of all the rest "of our oilicials.
'"Their only real knowledge, as a rule,
is the game of politics, and they natu
rally pluy to keep in power. A change,
to a (Teat permanency of office among
our technical oflkials particularly is thus
our primal need.
"The mayor in Germany is a mavor
by profusion, a highly trained and ex
nerienced city administrator. Ho may
lie called, if he acquires a reputation,
from city to city. He is in fact an em
ploye." After discussing briefly the Galveston
and Dos Moines systems, and criticising
the former as an almost entire separa
tion of the people from their civic du
ties. Admiral Chadwlek continued:
"The system adopted in Newport, R.
I., is in a great degree a return to pop
ular government. It is a system of six
udniinstrators who are completely re-sjs-insible
for the manner in which the
adminstrntion is carried on. But all
power of taxation, appropriation of the
funds, appointment to the more imjHjr
tant city ofliees, is in the hands of a
body of 105, w hich we call the Represen
tative Council."
William 11. Allen, secretary of tha
bureau of municipal research, New York,
declared that the cities of the United
States owe a debt of gratitude to Gal
veston and Dos Moines for having caused
the country to consider seriously the de
fects of existing city charters. But it
should not bo forgotten that the advo
cate of government by commission have
heretofore failed to recognize three fun
damental facts:
Misgovernment in a democracy is due
primarily to ignorance on the part of
the general public; as to official acts and
community needs.
Misgovernment by commission is pos
sible because the commission plan of it
celf does not insure intelligence on the
part of the general public a to gov
ernment results and community need.
Hundreds of communities In the Unit
ed States, including New York city,
are now being misgoverned by commis
sions. J. M. Head, former mayor of Nash
ville, said:
"An absurdity under which our eity
governments have labored is the idea
that our cities are mere branches or
arms of the state government, and have,
and can exercise no powers except ns
the state legislature may from time to
time permit.
"There is riot an instance where city
officials hove betrayed their trust, where
this rottenness, incompetency and inef
ficiency in the administration of city af
fairs cannot be traced directly or indi
rectly to the pernicious influence of the
public service corporation."
Commissioner West presented rn ac
count, of tho Msiem mid'T which the
District of Columbia is governed, lit
said:
"Inasmuch as there is no po'ilicul in
fluence to keep undeserving men ii)Kn
the force and as the proof of wrong-d-)-ing
result iu instant dismissal, the po
lice department is singularly free from
scandal, and does its work in a quiet
ami clfective manner."
"A Romance in Ireland."
Tho alt rait ion at the opera house to

comedian. Allen Doom1, who will present,
for the first time, his new and no iessful
comedy-drama, "A Romance in Inland,"
nil especially elaborate R'eiiie production

which is enid to have scored oni of the
pronounced hits of the season. The story
of the piny is described us somewhat
sensational, but wholesome nnd consist
ent, and distinctly original iu construc
tion, being a decided departure from the
conventional lriah drams which has be
come so familiar. In "A Itonmnco in
Ireland," Mr. Dkmic, who in bailed a
Joseph Murphy's "successful successor,"
is aifordid many chances to slimy the
metal of which lie is made in a part
which is admirably .calculated to show
his attractive personality, mid which per
mits the young comedian to indulge in

Tho big warship will also be presented
with other gifts at the name time. The
Daughters of the American Revolution

for state occasions, and comfort bags
for the sailors of the Vermont will be

The Vermont is expected to remain in

at New York.
The silver service to be presented to
the representative of the Green Moun

pices, punch bowl, punch ladle, plateeu
or waiter, upon which tho bowl stands,
two candelabra; water pitcher, syrup
pitcher, two salad bowla, meat dish, en
tree dish or serving tray, two compotes
and butter dish.
The punch bowl is of eighteenth cen
tury style, 25 inches wide, including the
handles, and W3 inches high to the
top of the handles.
The decoration is suggestive of the
sea and the state of Vermont, the han
dles being formed by dolphins, while
the picture of the battleship Vermont
is artistically etched in one of the large
panda on the side, the panel resting on
a wave decoration which leads down to
the foot of the bowl. On one side of
the foot of the. bowl, in bold relief, is
shown a spray of maple leaves surround
ing the seal of the United States navy,
while on the opposite side of the bowl
a spray of clover surrounds the seal of
the state of Vermont.
On the large panel opposite the battle
ship is a sugar maple scene, which is a
distinctive feature of the bowl, showing
a sugar house in the background, while
in the foreground appears a character
istic sugar-maker tapping a tree, while
around, him are shown several trees with
buckets hanging to them.
The punch ladle ahs a generous and
shapely ladle with grape-vine decora
tions, while at the head between crossed
dolphins appears the seat of Vermont.
The jilateau upon which the bowl
stands is 13 inches in diameter, includ
ing the handle. In the center is a cor
rect representation of the State House,
surrounded with the presentation in
scription, "Presented to the U. S. Bat
tleship Vermont by the State of Ver
mont." The bogue of the plateau is ornament
ed with a wave decoration and a spray
of clover, aid the seal of Vermont; op
posite the spray of maple and the seal
of the navy is shown on the flange.
The candelabra are large and impor
tant pieces designed to be lighted by
electricity. They are 19 inches high and
have a spread of 20 inches.
The water pitcher is of generous size,
wide at the mouth and mounted with
borders typical of the set. the sprays snd
seals being as ltefore described. The
feature of this piece is a fine etching
of a Morgan horse.
The syrup pitcher is the unique piece
of the service, representing a section of
a muple tree, being reproduced exactly
from a piece of maple bark.
The feature of the salad bowl is its
wide decorated flange with the dolphin
borders matching the other pieces of the
service. This piece is 16 inches in diam
eter and gold lined.
The 20-inch meat dish is decorated
with the sprays ami seals common to
the service, the' 14-inch entree dish, while
similar in character, has a shell decora
tion at either end. J
Each of the compotes, which are iden
tical in design, while in keeping with
the rest of the service, is treated in a
more liberal manner.
The butter dih is treated in a man
ner similar to the flat dishes except the
cover, which has a carefully modelled
Guernsey cow for a handle and a cor
rectly etched pasture scene with a stand
ing cow in the foreground.
