In thifi section there la one saloon for every 294 persona, with no playground for the child. Other exhibits wero the dangera of child life In playing upon the streets, 'analysis of atreet dirt, and tho Inter-., ferlng powera of different city depart rnentH in keeping tho streets clean apd properly paved, accidents on the atreet and street crime, allowing not only the moral danger of the atreet, but the tin happy fact that the chief. activities the healthy hoy can and ahould engage in are banned by law If practiced on tie atreet, and subject the child, if he cxprcM hla normal tendencies, to tho risk of a debasing contact with tho i criminal law. The candy shop and its effects on the young rapks in importance in the work of this committee. In many con f,ested districts the candy shops and Ktur.ds far outnumber the saloons, in (he exhibit a mode! of a typical candy shoo, with ltn pout cards, dime novel* and soda water, an well a?

The development of tho moving pic* ture show us a form of social ?/ter tainment was also a part of the ex hibit. There aro 250 of these shoe's In Manhattan, which reach two million people weekly, and at least a naif million children. Their undesirable ff.itures have been taken up by the committee and suggestions made a? to their Improvement. I-ow priced tb.ii> ters, the vaudeville, builesque tind melodrama and the cheap music V>*11 have been made a special study be cause of tho number of children unie? sixteen tha^ attend them; even the high priced theaters have been investi gated. A very exhaustive study has neen made of tho dance places, chief)/ in Manhattan. Dancing academies In Manhattan, the comm.ttee Bays. ore teaching annually some one hundred thoyfiaiid persons to dance, and of t lie ho 4G per cent. ?re under sixteen and 'JO per cent., under twenty one. Thus practically tho entire populullon between fourteen and twenty of the clerical and working classes is taught annually.

A pan was rattled in the cow j ] yard to summons the pig when the i pi lift was ready.

A few wnks ago j c? the. fnrru of Miki Kvnii*. live tr.Kes RW-uy, Shaw saw a big hog with pecu liar spots on his leg that ho recognized as belonging to the Kick pig of laM spring, an<l he claimed him. Evans re fused to give up the pig and suit w?? brought. The court decided in favor of 10 vans. Then Shaw asked a rehearing of the case and proposed to take the hog into his feeding lot, whore there was a large number of other hogs. He pro posed to go into the adjoining cow yard and rattle a tin dlah. The owner ship of the hog was to he decided on whether it made a dash for the hole In fence, far too small now to achnit of Its passing through. AM Qufndaro gathered arouud Shaw's hog lot to see the trial. Justice Pfaff took station where he could see the whole show. The' pig was placed In the let with the drove of hogs belong ing t'i Shaw. wh,o then went into the adjoining lut with a tin pan in his hand. At a signal from Justice Pfaff Shaw rattled the tin pan. The pig let out a couple of kinks in his tail and started for the hole in the fenci on a run It wr.s barely big enough for the hog to Insert his nose, but he struggled to g< t through and go to his old feediug place In the cow yard. There was a cheer from the crowd, even tho Evans faction joining, and Justice Pfaff promptly reversed his previous ruling ;.ud awarded the pig to Shaw. Michigan Man Is a Marvel in Figures Bm.K CHKKK, Mich?The vi 1 of V: ksburg Is the hoaiu of a who Is a "irarvul in figures"? K.

Mr ManigoM is conscious of per forming Iheso lightning .calculations. 1 i?? always closes his eyes when ft gar i: fr. but the answer is announced so ijulckly that it seems imp'^sible for J:lm to have done any ..Icilating Manlgo'.d's mind works with incredible swiftness aid in one reennd he says that his mind travel back over the events of a Ion;? tlrr.e. When num l en are given him he can see eveiy !:g;ire on his mental blackboard. Numbers to him are Just a succor- | 5 Ion of figures, as will be noticed above. Thus 2Sfi,f>3 4 is not two hun dred and tigh'.y-six thousand five hun- i dred and thirty-four, but simply 28, j 05, 34. Any number given him he fir.-t mentally points o.t in groups, i '?ommenctng at the right-hand side, I but he works from the left-hand side j in all operations. He adds six columns of figures instantly. He uses only ad- ! ditlon and multiplication. To sub- j tract he adds enough to the subtra- ! hentl to make it equal the minuend, I rh'' amount, divided, being the re- j n*.alr.cler. To divide he multiplies i ?he divisor by a succession of num bers until he hits ui>on the product | nearest the dividend, then the multl- j p'ler with the remainder, is the quo tient. All expert mathematicians who have examined Mr. Manigold agree that na ture h?.s endowed him with an extra tnknt. There have been a few in stances of instantaneous calculators, but they have not been very Intelli gent persoMK. psychologists having ex plained that they reached their re sults by intuition, conscious of no mental effort in doing so. Mr. Manigold. however, performs his wonderful leats with conscious mental effort He is a man of edu cation and high intellect, and a suc cessful teacher.
