The Liickawnnnns gave evidence of the rare they have received from Conch Bliss, but It was only occasionally that th y hud an opportunity of putting his m'.il'- into practice. The superior vtt-i;-..:t of the Kingston men muilf the roti-'c so nne-sided that it was unlntcr t stlr.ir. Wvomlng made the first touchdown from the kick-off without losing the 1 all. It was carried from the semin aiv's ten-yard line down the whole IctV'th of the field with a series of Hi v.p rushes through the line. The t.rcl.a wnnnu line withstood the huni niiTing fur only a short time and be rime so thoroughly broken up and de mninlized that they could do nothing whatever with the seminary rushers. "Vehe curried the ball over and Mcntzer kicked the goal. The Wyoming mude another touchdown and Eonl in the s-ine fashion. On the next kick-off Wyoming fumbled and Oavln fell on the ball for Lackawanna. After a few short gains Mutt kicked. Wyoming fumbled and on the line up Mott again Ui Iced.

In the second half Clark made a wenk return punt of Wyoming's kick-off. the hall going to the seminarians on Lack awanna's -lil-yard line. It went over in short order, with Lewis on top of It. The kick was blocked by Clark. v'y .nlirc never lost the ball after the next Mek-o'.t' until Yohe was pushed ovr tee line for the fifth touchdown. The kick was again blocked. Wyoming was trying for another touchdown. v hen a foul gave the ball to Laeka vnnna on their lie-yard line.

HEALTH OF AMERICA CITIES. Xew York Hns Jio Cause to Complain When the Statistic Are Studied. Prom the Sun. In those European cities wnicn nae statistical bureaus of the kind which certain municipal reformers are en deavoring to. establish in New York the relative salubrity of rival cities has long been a matter of dispute. In Lon don, In Paris, in Berlin, and In Vienna there have for many years been dis putes over the healthfulness of each city, and a computation mnde some years ago by an English authority, probably biased, gave these results: Death rate In London 21.1 for each 1.000 inhabitants, Paris .IS.6. Merlin L'7.6 and Vienna "t. As is usually the case In figures prepared by English- authori ties, Kncln-sfl stood best on the list and a pretty poor showing was made for cities with which the jnglisn sta tisticians have' little to do or In which English Ideas have not found lodg ment. In St. Petersburg the death rate was given as 61, In Milan as.SO.G. nnd In Koine as 3!6.8. In the Pnltcd States the record of health statistics has never been thor oughly t'xact, but it has of late be come more nenrly so In the city of New York than elsewhere, though un der existing sanitary regulations the correct computation of tho death rate should be easy in large cities every where. For the year 1S9" New York city's death rate was 23.15, Brooklyn's was 20.5 and Chicago's 15.03. The low rate In Chicago Is in part due to the fact that the chief city of Illinois, un like New York and Brooklyn, hns a small number of institutions of a pub lie character for the care of the In firm, the needy, and the superannuat ed. Moreover. Chicago Is not. like New Yot,k. a port of entry for Immi grants, and this fact further lessens Its rate. In Boston the rate Is 22.2 in Baltimore Is, In San Francisco IS. in Cincinnati 1S.2H. In Cleveland 17.2'J. In ' Memphis (long noted as one of the I most tmhenltnful of American cities, but not so now) 23. In Milwaukee la.i. nnd in St. Louis 16.1. In many cities of the south the deatli rate Is abnorm ally Increased by the large colored population, which is not uniformly, nnd cannot perhaps be generally, ob servant of sanitary rules. In the city of Charleston, for Instance, where the colored population Is very much larger than In other cities of the seaboard, the death rate last year was 27.3. hut under n stib-dlvlslon of the population between white nnd black It was 18.58 of the white population and S5.S of the colored population, or more than twice as much for the latter. Likewise In the city of Xew Orleans, which has an ex tensive colored population, the death rate was 23.RS 21.90 whites nnd 33.15 colored. Notwithstanding the Increase of the rate by reason of the large col ored population, the city of New Or leans had last year no higher death rate than the city of Newark, N. J., nnd this Improvement was in "eat measure due to better sanitary regula tions In the Crescent City, long known among American municipalities f-- Its lack of salubrity In consequence of Its poor geographical position. Perhaps the most healthful of the large cities of me- i ntteu ma ten, ir a city with a population of 60,000 may be Included in the category of "large cities," is Salt Lake City, with an average denth rate last year of less than 10, smaller than that of any other large city of which there Is any record. But Mlnnes polls clnlms a rate nearly as low, and Sioux City, S. D., when booming, claimed the low rate of only five for each thousand of population. The larger the popula tion claimed, the lower, of course, the death rate, nnd to this Is ascribed by some the modest position of Chicago. New York's rate is low, nnd Is steadi ly decreasing. Till: NEW UAH .METE It. Tin; leiiin-intlii!-Slot Machine Is Successfully Filling n Public Want. From the New York Journal. The penny-ln-the-slot gas meters have not yet reached New York, but they have spread within the last three or four years throughout London, and have found their way Into every large city in England. The reports of meet ings of gas companies and of corpora tions owine gas works that are pub lished there from day to day show that the demand for them continues almost unabated. During the past year alone one London gas company hns sent out more than 30,000 of these meters. A few months ago the demand was so very great, and the meter-mnkers so little able to meet It, that the company had to discontinue supplies for a while. Now the demand. Is as great as ever, Another London company the South- Metropolitan has sent out during the past four years no less than 50,000 of this class of meter in Manchester the penny-tn-tne-slol meters are being sent out at the rate of from S00 to 1,000 a month, and in Liverpool, Birmingham and other northern cities the demand is equally great. These machines, which are really a boon to small householders, and a cor responding trial to small dealers in wood and coal and burning oil, are now being made proof against human guile. The gas companies through long experience have become wary. Indeed. In the new meters French pennies will no longer work the oracle. The penny which used to be attached to a string and withdrawn when value had been received Is now irrecoverable, for the string Is cut by a concealed blade. The sticky penny, which used to keep the gas "on." cannot effect a fraudulent lodgment either, and .among the Eng lish slot patrons now there Is, nothing for It but dull, prosaic rectitude until their Ingenuity can devise some fresh devices for "beating the muchlne."

REGULAR TRIUMPH OF INGENUITY A New Voder's Awaxiug Combina tion of Electricul Devices to Do tho WorU of Servants-. Elpalor, Doors nnd Lights That Art in llesjiomie la Uiitont Hands. According to an old fable, "a little girl who had become heartily sick of the ordinary duties of life once wished that Bhe might so to fairyland where she t-ould dream away existence and have nothing to do. The gnomes heard of her foolish desires and one day while she was asleep conveyed her to the land of perpetual sunshine and installed her in a beautiful palace surrounded by gardens full of fragrant flowers. Here she found her slightest wish always anticipated. If she wanted to pluck a llower, it forestalled her by dropping into her hand. If she wished to go to a distant spot, it came to her before she could make a movement. Even her food conveyed Itself to her mouth and saved her the trouble of swallowing it. Everything, In fact, was done at her slightest inclination. She, however, soon tired of an enforced Inactivity and was very glad when at last she was allowed to return to the workaday world. According to the Sun. the nearest approach to the fairyland of the fable exists in New York city. It is the home of tho president of one of the large ex changes and it Is situated on West Sev enty-fifth street. In this house It Is almost impossible to do a stroke of work or perform a series of concerted neHons. Everything Is done for you. apparently by magic, though really by i-leeu-leity. It is probably the most elahoruw; electrically equipped resi dence In the country, if not in the world. Everything Is done by the cur rent, and it Is necessary only to reach out your finger to have It done. It would seem as If the family of the owner must die of lassitude nnd the servants grow so lazy as never to be lit tor work. Most of the servants are figureheads anyhow; they have so little to uo. NO CLIMBING OF STAIRS. The occupuhils of the house seldom or never walk up stairs. An electric- ele vator carries them from Iloor to floor nnd even up to the private roof gurden fitted out with electrical devices. No attendant is required to work this ele vator. It Is the perfection of automatic action. A single push button on each landing controls It. No matter If the ear Is above or below your floor, a pres sure of the button will call it to you. This Is, of course, possible because of the automatic action of the pole-changers and switches which are placed at every floor and are worked by the car itself. Once a certain push button has been pressed, the car passes under the control of the person who pressed the button, and no matter how much the other buttons are pressed they will not net until the first one Is released. This Is done by means of a commutator which throws all of the other LuUniw out of circuit: for if two persons on different floors should attempt to work me car at one and the same time It might prove fatal to human life. The car door also is automatic, and the car cannot ne- moved until the door Is shut anil lor-KeU. This elevator Is lighted by tiny but brilliant electric lamns. and there is a flexible tube telephone in the car wnicn enables one to speak to any i ui me nouse. Such a thing us the ordlnarv nnenlne- nnd shutting of a door never occurs in this house. NVar every door there Is a push ouuon. iJress this and the door slides into the wall or vice versa. The pressure or another button locks or tin picks, tne door. Sometimes if Is n necessary to be near the door in order io open or close it. Hanging down be sides the beds are what Is known In eieciricai circles us "flexible" bifurc atecl cords with wooden knobs or ban Hies on the ends. In onch handle ure four buttons, marked succcsmIvcIv Asleep. Awake, Shut, and Locked. The pressure of the first two buttons send a signal to various parts of the house that the master or mistress is asleep or awake. The bedroom Is approached oy a long nnu or entry way. Lying in bed the occupant of the house can shue and lock or unlock and open the door at the end of the fifty-foot pussage by merely pressing me proper buttons. Hanging near the bed Is another flexi ble button which means all kinds of qualified summons to the house ser vants. OTHER CONVENIENCES. There Is no such thing as groping in the dark In this house. Everv room can be lighted before entering by press- mi? a ouuon m ine nan approaching a. Furthermore, you can light at will one or a dozen or every light In the room and there Is also one switch which en ables every lamp in the house - - he lighted at once. Dark closets are un known In the house. The very act of opening a rloset door automatically turns on the current and the Interior Is lighted up. All of the table lamps are electric and In several cases there are marble statues holding Incandes cent lamps, small patterns, as It were, of Edison's famous statue of the Tri umph of Electric Light. One of them, which stands In the front hallway, was on exhibition at the World's fair. The roof of the house with its elec- iricuny iignien garuen presents a beautiful sight from a distance. Just ns tne instance is beautiful when viewed from the roof, for the Pali sades lie off to one side with the Hud son in between. Here the family passes its evenings when home In the summer time. In the kitchen all tho cooking Is done by the current, and so mucn ot it is uone according to new- adway's Pills. Always Reliable, Pure'y Vegetable, MILD. BUT EFFKCTIYK.

When a chicken has been prepared and placed in an electric oven It Is only necessary to press a Dutton and watch the clock. As the heat is obtained from overcharged wires . Is distributed evenly all around the bird. Basting is, therefore, not necessary. and the expertness of cooking becomes a mere question of time allowance. A leg of lamb, for instance, will requ.re Just one hour and ten minutes to cook. Left in the oen three minutes longer than this and it would be overdone. It is not necessary to look In mean time. The dining room of this house Is ex quisite In tone, the lights shedding a gentle radiance down from the ceiling. It is said that the owner even contem plated an electric table which would sink out of sight and It place be taken by another after each course had been eaten, much after the Roman fashion of table removal. The nearest ap proach In this case, however, is an electric dumbwaiter, large enough to carry a whole dinner course. It is but one remove from the other Idea. The dining table abounds In call bells. The master of the house can give a private signal through the floor by means of a foot push button. ALL HOME-MADE. The current used In this plant Is all generated on the premises. The house is not situated along the line of a street current. The owner had therefore to install his own plant. Storage batter ies supply the current to tne nouse. The cells themselves are stored by a dynamo, which is worked in its turn by a gas engine. This entails no trou ble, however, because the switches on the elaborate switchboard are worked automatically by a side current from tne ceils. A colored man servant keeps his eye on the machinery, and an ex perienced electrical man pays the house a visit at intervals of one or two months. This In a measure proves the feasibility of electric lighting for coun try residences. In fact, everything seems to be done at a touch of a button in this house, and the inhabitants have become thor oughly used to It. The owner has tried to enjoy some of the delights of ordin ary activity by becoming a photograph fiend, but here the modern destiny of the mansion has pursued him, and his private studio Is "electric." Arc con centratlng lamps enable the owner to take pictures day and night, and there are electric developing processes on which he experiments. He has even had wires run underground from nis cellar plant to the nouses of his busi ness partnera and for his father-in law on the next street. He supplies them with lighting current. It is not apparent that there are any electric hair curlers or electric cigar lighters in tne nouse, but there is no reason why they should not have been con cealed In some out of the way corner. In short. If there Is a genius of domes tic electricity abroad It would prob ably select this house for Its residence. ACQI'HIINU KNOWLEDGE.
