It is the prerogative of every cit<lb />izen to insist upon the public ser-<lb />yants looking after the health of<lb />the town. We have had an unpre-<lb />cedented winter and spring and<lb />the earth has been saturated with<lb />water until it has polluted<lb />the very atmosphere. This old<lb />town is becoming more powerful,<lb />and the tobacco world bas an eye<lb />upon ner. It is being cussed and<lb /><lb />discussed, and while the spirit of<lb /><lb />improvembnt is going on and the<lb /><lb />|hot summer days are approach-<lb /><lb />ing and with it disease, why can<lb />not our citizens see and feel the<lb />necessity of a thorough cleansin<lb />of the streets, lanes and bac<lb />yards. Isay without fear of cun-<lb />tradiction the sanitary condition<lb />of this town 1s awfal, and some-<lb />body is responsible. Now Mr.<lb />Editor, the people look to you<lb />and have a right to ask, why you<lb />have not ostepped upon� some-<lb />bodyTs toes, in this matter? Do<lb />it, and you will merit and receive<lb />the plaudits of the community,<lb />and so wilt I, although I am a<lb />New Comer.<lb />{If oNew Comer� had always<lb />been a reader of the REFLECTOR<lb />he would have seen that com-<lb />plaining at the sanitary condition<lb />of the town and urging the clean-<lb />liness of premises has been chron-<lb />ic with us.

Thirds Miles an Hour...<lb /><lb />Of all the migratory birds the<lb />American wild pigéoad and black<lb />duck are well up toward the front as<lb />regards long and rapid flight. The<lb />speéd of the pigeons can only, be es-<lb />timated, while that of the ducks can<lb />be established by observation. Some<lb />years ago the writer and a scientific<lb />friend measured off oh the shére of<lb />@ large western river a line exactly<lb />three miles long, and each took a<lb />station at opposite ends of the line.<lb />The object was to note, by means of<lb />preconeerted signals, the time a<lb />flock of wild ducks took in passing<lb />up or down the river near the sta-<lb />tions. "<lb /><lb />During three heurs on the morn-<lb />ing of a bright October day observa-<lb />tions were noted of the times of pass-<lb />ing, the stations of nine. different<lb />fiecks.. Upon comparing watches it<lb />was found that the average time was<lb />two minutes and forty-two seconds,<lb />thus showing. the. speed per bour to<lb />be sixty-six and two-thirds miles, or<lb />one mile in fifty-four seconds.. As<lb />showing how uniform was their<lb />flight, a difference was found of only<lb />fivé seconds between the greatest<lb />and the least fhtervals of time.<lb /><lb />As numerous flocks of wild geese<lb />were daily flying in the same neigh-<lb />borhood observations were also taken<lb />to test. their hourly speed. Two<lb />ks | points, twenty- nine and one-third<lb />eimiles apart, were selected, both of<lb />which were connected by telegraph.<lb />We suceéeded.in identifying four<lb />out of seven flocks which passed over<lb />both places duriog the four days we<lb />were on. the watch. .The mean. hourly<lb />speed was found to be a, fraction<lb />over fifty-four miies.. The wild goose<lb />has been, long supposed: to ,be the<lb />swiftest of all water | fowl, but this<lb />experiment shows that he is far be-<lb />hind the wild duck."N. Y.
