REMARKABLE RECORD OF
IM,p.ROyEVIEtNT??N(HASTINGS
Nebraska City Has Reason to Da
Proud of Its Achievements.
In the way of municipal lmpiove
rncnts, which nre n sure token of the
progresslvcncss of the community,
Hastings, Neb., has made a record dur
up the past year that Is said to bo
without parallel nmong the Nebraska
cities of her class for this or any other
year.
Including over four miles of street
paving finished In the twelve months
ending this fall and for sewer exten
sions and improvements In the water
and light department finished or con
tracted for during the calendar year
Hastings' bill Is approximately S.'O,-
000. This year's Improvements bring
the value of the water system up to
$200,000. nnd the value of the electric
light nnd power system up to $1-10.000.
making a total for the two of ?310.000.
The bonded debt of the city was do-
creased during the last ten years from
!?2S5.000 to Sinn.OOO. but the $50,000
issue of intersection bonds this year
brought the total back to $2-15.000.
which Is still far less than the value of
the city's Investments In the two mu
nicipal enterprises. Bond issues of
$110,000 for the water plant and nn
original bond issue of $20,000 for the
light nnd power plant gave the only
public nld these two plants have had.
all the subsequent Improvements hav
ing been paid for out of the earnings.
Moreover, there has been no levy
cither for wnter used by the city or for
street lighting. During the present year
the city has Invested almut $S,000 In a
now. well and a new smokestack and
about $9,000 In the Installation of a new
air compressor. Approximately, $-1,000
lias been spent In the enlargement of
the power house and the building of a
coal storage houe and n machine shop.
Two boilers have been installed nnd
nre about ready to be placed in com
mission. When the settlement Is made this Im
provement will represent n further In
vestment of $3,000. Early this month
the council contracted for a new pump
to cost $0,250 and the foundation and
addition to the building nbout $3,000
more. Sewer extensions built and con
tracted for during the year show an
outlay of over $7,000. The total cost
of paving in the twelve months ending
this fall was $200,-lC0.08. Over 500
carloads of materials were shipped
Into Ilnstings for this paving exclu
sive of the home brick used.
Must Keep Streets and Alleys Clean.
A determined effort to clean up the
streets and alleys of Pueblo, Colo., and
place them In a more presentable con
dition Is to be undertaken at once by
the health department. Copies of the
ordinance regnrdlng the throwing of
trash into the streets and alleys of the
city have been printed nnd will be cir
culated generally throughout the city.
It stipulates n fine of from $5 to $100
for violation, and, according to the offi
cials of the health department, It is to
be enforced to the letter. The ordi
nance covers rubbish nnd trash of ev
ery description, nnd the first work of
the department will be a thorough in
spection of present conditions. Notice
will be served to violators that they
had better clean up at once, and after
a reasonable time has elapsed prosecu
tions will be started unless the law Is
adhered to absolutely.
$20,000 to Clean Streets.
The street cleaning department of
I'ort Wayne, Ind., cost $10,030.40 dur
ing the year 1011, according to the an
nual report of the board of public
works, by Ilcnry W. Becker, the clerk
to the department.
In addition to this sum the board
spent $10,893.32 for street maintenance
and repairs, and $2,412.02 for Improv
ing the bridges within the corporate
limits. The garbage department was
busy during the twelve months, when
3,772 londs of garbage were delivered
to the incineration plnnt. The city
expended $14,485.00 to accomplish this,
of vhlch $0,489.97 was given to David
Wlnburn, the collection contractor.
Homo Trade Pointers.
Keep track of your sales each day.
It will bo, a help to you later on.
At the close of each day's business
enter In your personal memorandum
book your total sales for the day; also
make totals for each week and each
month. For the flrst year you can
make weekly and monthly compari
sons, and nfter a year you can com
pare your sales each day. These com
parisons will serve to act as an Incen
tive In your work, for you will find
yourself trying to beat your previous
records. You will find that it Is inter
esting to Co this. It Is a good thing for
the store, so It cannot be anything but
a good thing for you ulso.
Will Enforce City Ordinance,
At n meeting of the city council of
Mnrlln, Tex., the marshal was Instruct
ed to enforce the ordinance against
obstructions being placed and allowed
to remain on the streets nnd sidewalkR.
such as vehicles at blacksmith shops
nnd livery stables: boxes, barrels, etc..
at stores and saloons. This action was
In compllanco with a request from la
dles of the city.
Free Trees and Shrubs.
F. V. Collins, owner of Collins' gar
dens and a director of the Civic Im
provement league, has announced a
plan by which ho hopes to make San
Antonio homes beautiful. Any perRor
who goes to Collins' gardens who owni
n home, the valuation of which doei
not exceed $2,500, will receive frr
shrubs nnd trees.

Perils of Gasoline.
The fire prevention committee of the
Rochester chamber of (.omuicrcc. lu
the course of its campnlgn of educa
tion ngalust home fire dangers, had Is
sued n circular on gasoline and its per
ils In which it says: "A pint of gaso
line left open Jn n basin in a room at a
normal or average temperature will
entirely evaporate In twenty-four hours.
The gasoliuo vapor is heavier than the
nlr and sinks immediately to the floor
nnd unless It Is disturbed by nctivc air
currents will remain In the room for
tunny hours. One pint of gasoline will
make 200 cubic feet of explosive mix
ture. Without becoming too scientific
It mny be said that this gasoline vapor
is seven times more powerful than gun
powder. It Is not necessary to touch a
match to it. A spark from the heel of
a shoe striking n tnck or nnil will ex
plode the vapor. A lighted gas Jet will
produce the same result. Keep gaso
line nway from every kind of flame,
even if that flame is inclosed, as In a
stove or furnace.
Claim They Can "Grow" Meat.
Artiliclul production of food by mere
ly chemical processes has always been
a dream of the scientific man. A re
cent discovery brings this within the
possibilities, provided the chemist Is
allowed an organic cell to start with.
Professor W. II. Lewis and his wife
of Johns Hopkins arc reported to have
caused cellular substances to grow in
definitely outside of the organisms to
which they orlglually belonged. Dr.
Lewis now suggests that this may en
able men to "grow" meat on n com
mercial scale. A commcntutor says:
"What Dr. Lewis and bis wife claim to
have actually accomplished Is this:
They have taken pieces of chicken,
plnced them In n saline solution and
grown chicken meat. They have dis
covered that it Is possible to cut oil
some of this chicken meat without hin
dering further growth, and the process
can be repeated indefinitely. They also
claim that the process can bo applied
to any kind of flesh." Chicago News.

The Smallest Armies.
If ever the dream of the disarma
ment of the world shall bo realized
there nre several countries that would
not have much to do In this line as, 1
for Instance, Monaco, whoso nrmy con-1
slsts of seventy-five guards, seventy-1
five carabineers and twenty firemen.1
Tho next smallest army Is that of
Luxembourg, with its 135 gendarmes,
170 volunteers and thirty musicians.
In the republic of San Marino they
can put in the field a total of nine
companies of 050 men and thirty-eight
officers, commanded sby n marshal.
The army on a peace footing consists
of one company of sixty men. Tho
most amusing of all tho "armies.",
however, Is that of Liberia. That
country's fighting force is composed of
700 men nnd SOO officers, but the latter
are evidently deemed very terrible by
their own government since the re
public Issues proclamations of neutral
ity when wars break out between any
of the powers.
Dickens Liked Literary Names.
The death of Alfred Tennyson Dick
ens recalls tho great novelist's pen
chant for naming his children after
distinguished literary men and par
ticularly after his contemporaries. His
eldest son, born in 1837, he christened
after himself, Charles Culllford Boz;
his flrst daughter he named simply
Mnry; the second daughter, Kate Ma
creadyj the second son. born In 1841,
Walter Landor: the third, born in 1844,
Francis Jeffrey; the fourth, Alfred
Tennyson: tho fifth, Sydney Smith;
the sixth, nenry Fielding, and tbo
seventh, Edward Bulwer Lytton. Of
these only nenry Fielding, who, like
his namesake, follows the law, now
Burvlves. Ono wonders somewhat why
he passed over his great friend John
Forster and his greatest contemporary,
Thackeray. Pall Mall Gazette.
