house drainage up again.
101 veil, POSTPON ED ACTION TILL
PLIMBERS COLLD BE HEARD.
Dieetins of the Committee of the
NVhole To-morrow Afternoon to
Consider the Matter—Alderman
Thomas Objeeted to Going; on
Record as the Father of the Ordi
nance in Its Amended Shape—Al
derman Dixon Thonftht He Should
•‘Stand for” It—Alderman AVells
Objected Strongly to Four-Inch
Pipes.
That the house drainage ordinance 1 ad
been pending for some time before Coun
cil and that it had been struggling harder
then most measures that are introduced,
aa shown at the meetr.g yesterday a
- when the clerk announced; "Or
dinance on the fourth reading.” Alderman
Thomas looked conscious of this evidence
of the opposition that the ordinance h -d
found and the various meetings through
which it has passed, and his confreres
listened as to the recital of some "twi e
told tale, dinning the ears of a drowsy
man.”
Earlier in the meeting, when the Coun
cil w'os called upon to approve the min
htes of the last meeting, Alderman Thom
as offered an objection to the ordinance
being ascribed to him, and showed a decid
ed reluctance to father it. He declar'd
that he did not believe it should be so rec
orded, as il had been altered and added
to since its introduction.
Alderman Dixon demurred. He thought
Alderman Thomas should be considered
the author of the ordinance. Asa member
of the committee, he himself was willing
o assume the responsibility for the
house drainage, though not for the excess
over the budget, and he saw no reason
why Alderman Thomas should not be w ill
ing to admit his relationship to the or
dinance.
Several of the Aldermen chipped in, and
quite a little discussion ensiled. The pros
pect of getting on to other business began
to look a trifle bilious, but City Attorney
Adams drew his chair up to the Mayor's
and whispered a suggestion. The Mayor
seemed to agree with him, and Mr. Adams
remarked that, as a point of persona]
privilege, Alderman Thomas, if he wished
to go on record as not admitting responsi
bility for the ordinance, might have it
clearly set forth that he did not approve
the amendments. This suggestion was ac
ceptable, and the Council passed on to
the consideration of the cemetery ques
tion.
After having disposed of the report of
the special committee on the cemetery
site the house drainage ordinance was
read by the clerk. When it was stated
that the soil pipe to extend at leas two
feet above the roof of a house should be
four inches in diamater. Alderman Wells
promptly ohjected. He declared that this
would demand the reconstruction cf
every house in the city, an expense that
property ■ owners would not care to as
sume.
Mr. \V. R. Chapman, supervising engin
eer for the house drainage work, was
called upon fqr expert testimony about
t* e points in the ordinance, and he in
sisted that it would be ‘ good practice” to
have flic pipes four inches and reaching
at least two feet above the roofs. "Goo i
practice for the plumbers.” Alderman
Wells remarked, and then continued with
a stat r nient cf his objections to the
setume. He wanted practical knowledge
upon the question, with all deference to
the scientific knowledge of Mr. Chapman,-
and proposed a meeting at wh’ch well
informed plum' era might he present t
give the benefit of "their experience.
Aldernran Thomas also wanted the
plumbers to pass upon the question, hut
he. wanted them in a hurry. :,s the people
ore anxious to have their connection!-;
with t he house drainage system m.nb . \
meeting for to-morrow afternoon of 1.•
Committee of the Whole was propose.!,
and it was with the understanding that
they would- meet at 4 o'clock that the
aldermen adjourned. Plumbers will bo
present then to give their views.

NO MORE VEGETABLES.
Itn 11ron<1* Report Movements From
This Section Ahont Over.
The railroads report the vegetable sea
son practically over, so far as shipments
from this section are concerned. Truck
is no longer moving from Florida, and but
small quantities are shipped from the
farms in this vicinity. The season has not
l>een what might be termed a prosperous
one for the farmers, u the prices secured
for the products were not high enough.
The yield, however, was excellent, and
could good prices have been secured, the
busincsis would have paid excellently.

"Over of the cases of diarrhoea and bowel

THE CHILD'S BRAIN.
\nl the Proper %e for the Young
to Enter School.
From the Boston Transcript.
The brain?- of children are at present
the subject of anxious study by the au
thorities of the District of Columbia, w ho
are trying in this way to reach satis
factory conclusions ns to the age at which
young Iriks ought to begin to go to
school. It is beginning to be thought
that schooling may perh ips be started too
early for the health and welfare of the
little ones, and <his Idea seems plausible
when it is considered chat infants of C
yeais are compelled to seek book learn
ing at the public cost in the District of
Columbi i and in Wyoming, while mere
prattlers of 4 are allowed to take advant
age of educational opportunitys in Con
necticut. Wisconsin arid Oregon, if their
parents so desire. In thirteen other
states, of the Union the minimum age of
voluntary prtendance is 5 years.
Light is thrown upon this interesting
subject foi a study of the growth and
development of the mind organ in chil
dren. In this line the most important
work has been done by Dr. W. W. John
ston. \ distinguished physician of Wash
ington. who calls attention to the fact
that the human brain attains practically
its fail weight when the individual is
only about 8 years of age. At birth the
bruin weighs approximately a pound, but
i<s development so rapid that at the
end of ih< first year It would tip the
scales at two and one-half pounds. At 4
years it has reached nearly three pounds,
hut from that time on its growth L com
paratively slow. Attaining <o what is to
all Intents and purposes its full size at 8
years, it does not alter appreciably aft r
12 years, and after 24 years it begins to
diminish slowly hut steadily in avoirdu
pois.
These fids obviously have a very Im
portant bearing upon questions of school
training. So for as brain development
is concerned, the first eight yur* of age
are by far the important of the
chtlde’s life, the main growth of the or
gan taking place during that period. It
is evident that the s-ature attained event
ually by the mind depends largely upon
the perfection of brain growth during thl*
epoch. I >r. Johnson urges that education
ought not to begin dur ng th's period of
brain growth, and that children that are
sent to school before <hey are 8 years
of age are threatened with serious injury.
Also, he contends that, in vi w of the
facts above stated, read ng brain de
velopment, 'nstructlon during the first
years should not be too exacting or too
stimulating. Precocity ought to he check
ed, furthermore, and not fostered.
The male brain at birth is heavier than
• e female brain. Another interesting
: act is that a child’s brain contains more
‘ ater and much less nerve tissue than
•n adult’s. At birth the brain of an
infant contains 89 per cent, of wajor,
whereas that of an adult has a trill* less
than 71 per cent, of water. In a word,
the child’s brain holds marly 20 per cent,
more water than the brain of the adult.
The brain cells develop with the growth
of the individual, th * average of tin m
multiplying in size by about 450 times,
while some of them increase as much as
10,000 Gmes. Tlie growth of tin* brain is
due, however, not only to ihe increase of
the cells in size, but also to the multi
plication of tin* brain cells. The bigger
the human being the more brain cells he
has, other things being equal,, nn I this
point has been studied out quite expen
sively wifh frogs, the largest frogs being
found to have the greatest number of
cells in their brains.
The first eight years nre the nv'st Im
portant of a child’s lif*\ for the reason
mentioned, and it is urged that school
education ought rot to begin until <h’s
period is about ov- r. But it s'ill 're
mains to be determined how many hours
daily should be given by the chi’d to
study. It has not been ascertained defi
nitely whether the child is helped er hin
dered by competition, and a good many
o*her questions in this same line remain
unanswered. One thing deem'd certain
is that school children, g • norally speak
ing in this country and elsewhere, are
overworked. There are seventeen mil
lion pupils in the public schools of the
United State*, and it goo a wk'ioip say
ing that some of He m arq much feebler
mentally and physlcnGy than other -. Nev
ertheless, the pace is set by *hc capacltv
of the stronger and smarter ones, and
all arc formal along foge-ther always to
the detriment of the weaker and less
clever.
