A LIFE LESSON.

There little girl; don't cryi
They have broken your doll, know;
And your tea set blue,
And your play house, too,
Are things of the long ago;
But childish troubles will soon pass by,
There little girl; don't cry.
There little girl; don't cryi
They have broken your slate, know
And the glad wild ways
OF your schoolgirl days
Are things of long ago;
But life and love will soon come by,
There little girl; don't cry!
There little girl; don't cry!
They have broken your heart, / know;
And the rainbow CLEANS
OF your youthful dreams
Are things of the long ago;
But heaven holds all for which you sigh,
There little girl; don't cry

A LEGAL HOLIDAY.
Banks Can Close on the Both and Notes
VIII Go to Protest the Day Before.

There has been some question whether the
S0th of April, the centennial anniversary Of
Washington's Inauguration, will be a holiday in
q legal sense. The law declaring the S0th of
April. 1889. holiday, was enacted in the last
section of the act making appropriations for
sundry civil expenses Of the government This
section declares that in order that the centen-
NAL anniversary of the Inauguration of the first
President of the United States, George Wash
ington, may be duly commemorated Tuesday,
the thirtieth day of April, Ammo Domino eight
cen hundred and eighty-nine, is hereby de-
United States"
Under the law. as the President has set aside
the 30th of April as a day Of thanksgiving, II
becomes legal holiday.
The law declaring what days shall be legal
holidays is section 993 of the Revised Statutes
for the District, which reads as follows:
The following days, namely: The first day
OF January, commonly called New Years day.
the fourth day of July; the 25th day of De
cember. commonly called Christmas day; and
any day appointed or recommended by the
President of the United States as a dav of pub
lie fast or thanksgiving. shall be holidays
within the District, and shall for all purposes
OF presenting for payment or acceptance, for
maturity and protest, and giving notice
OF the dlshonor of bills OF eN-
Nhanse' bdHh-CneChs. anu HONee,
or other negotiable or commercial paper, be
treated and considered as il the first day of the
week, commonly called Sunday; and all notes,

THE MECHANICS, LIEN LAW
Construed in the General Term this
Morning.

A decision of interest to builders and con-
tractors was rendered in the Court in General
Term this morning, in the case of Chas. R.
Monroe & Co. agt. Ed. J. Hannah and others,
the opinion of the court being delivered by
Judge Hagner. The facts Of the case are sub
stantially as follows: Hannsn was the owner
of certain vacant lots on Capitol Hill. and in
February, 1885, contracted with Vim. C. Good
win for the erection thereon of eleven brick
houses. Goodwin sublet to Ward & Mockabee
the brickwork. Ward & Mockabee bought all
the bricks used in the work from the we'll
known dealers, G.. r. Monroe e. Co.. and Ward
& MOckabee failing to pay for the bricks Mon
roe Co. filed lien against the houses for
balance due them, some 81 100. In January
1899, decree was passed by the Equity Court
in their favor. for q 050 From this decree
Hannah appealed The General Term this morn
ing reversed the judgment of the Equity Court
and decided that persons furnishing materials
to the sub-cOntractors are not entitled to liens
under the law. They must look for their paw
to the sub-contractors themselves. But all per-
sons dealing with the principal contractor,
whether material men, journey men, laborers
or sub-contractors, may have their liens. In
the future when lot owner wishes to improve
his property he will be able to form some idea
in advance to where his liability for labor
and materials will. end Monroe q Co. were

HOLMAN AND BLAINE.
The Representative Thinks the Secre-
tary is Looking Remarkably Well.

Representative Holman had few moments
chat with Mr.. Blaine at the State department
to-day. Judge Holman was a member of the
House when Mr.. Blaine was Speaker and, aside
from politics, they have always been good
friends. Each has such a strongly-marked
character as to attract the admiration of the
other.
"Mr. Blaine is looking well, remarkably WELL"
the judge said to a STAR reporter after the
interview, Il have known him for some time,
as you know, and do not recollect when he
has appeared to better advantage. He was
surrounded by people who were laying claim
to his attention and consideration and
was pressed for time, but his bear
ing was more calmly powerful than
have known it. He appears to be in the best
OF health and spirits. His eyes are bright
and there is general frmness in his gaze, his
voice, his hand-grasp and his pose that denotes
vitality. He looks SO much stronger and better
than when l saw him before he went to
Europe, and the thing l notice is an
improvement in his general manner. He was
always courteous, and had an excellent man
ner of meeting and mingling with men, but
withal there was constantly apparent that self
assertion, that aggressive will power. Now
the will power is just strong, but it does not
Obtrude itself in his manner. He is schooled
to a calm repose of manner which is both at
tractive and impressive, and shows that he has
gained a still more perfect knowledge of men,
He is bound to remain the powerful person
ality of his party. His health and intellect

The National Geological Park.

From Forest and Stream.
As the commission created by the act of Con-
gress establishing the geological park approach
the task of selecting the most desirable site,
and securing it at a reasonable price, they find
that it is by no means an easy one. Already
there are marked indications that the various
owners of the ground which constitutes the site
proposed by Senator Beck and Prof. Langley
are determined to force prices up to the
highest possible figure, regardless of the real
value of the land or the interests of the public
Ii is true that Congress authorizes and directs
that condemnation proceedings be had in case
it should prove impossible TO purchase the
method property-owners generally manage to
obtain verdict of values much higher than
the market value of the property.
Fortunately, however, the Commissioners
have wide area to select from, and there are
at least three fine sites available 1t is greatly
to be desired, however, that the site nearest
the city shall be obtained, if it be possible.
Prof. Langley has expressed an earnest desire
to provide park which shall be not only a
great educational institution, but also poor
mans pleasure ground; and for both these
reasons he is anxious that it shall be located Is
near the city as possible.
We understand that the appropriation will
not become available until July 1, and ID il
likely that several months will unavoidably be
consumed in selecting and acquiring the Site
1t will, therefore, hardly be possible that the
collection Of living animals now at the national
museum can be moved until late next autumn
1t Is well understood that the first care Of
those who viii have charge Of the geological
park, and to whom the park is indebted for its
existence, will be to bring together an un-
rivalled series of North American quadrupeds,
which shall include nearly, il not quite, all the
forms threatened with speedy determination.
It is a fortunate thing for the public that
Prof. Langley takes such deep and active in

tives Of our characteristic fauna; and In the
struggle that Is about TO come between GER
tain property owners and the representatives
of the people who have reason to believe

guard them.

A QUESTION ABOUT WINE.
Controller Durham on the I'd Of September,
1887, wrote as follows to the Commissioners:
Sin your May, 1887 account for Washington
asylum, find in voucher 42.652, Jackson 4
Co., SIS. the following items, viz: One pint
Angelica wine, 75c.; one pint cooking wine,
25c.; one pint sherry wine, 25c. 1t is supposed
that this voucher is for necessary food for
the intendant and his family CWebb's Digest
page 30, although there is nothing on its face
to show that this is the case. Heretofore, in
some instances, items like the above for
liquors have been stricken out of the vouchers
for intendant's supplies before it received
your approval, while in other cases such
charges seem to have been approved Will you
kindly inform me whether all the items charged
for in the bill referred to are for necessary
food for the intendant and his family, and
whether the items for liquors are approved by
you? In rendering this account in the future
please indicate on the voucher for the intend
ants necessary food its character, in order
that may be able to recognize it."
The Commissioners, under date of Septem-
Der II, replied as follows:
I'm response the Commissioners would say
tnat IL mas been satisfactorily SHOWN TO them
that the articles in question were used in the
preparation of delicacies for weak and infirn
persons in the asylum. Wines. or other liquors,
dispensed In this way do not seem to come
under the provisions contained in the ordi-
nance which require such articles to be fur
nlshed on the written orders Of the physician
of the asylum, because the wine in question
was furnished from the private stores of the
attendant. The term intendants necessary
food is so vague in its character that former
Commissioners have endeavored to give it GER
tainty by allowing a fixed amount by way of
communication. No record of their action in
this respect exists. but the amount of S25
month seems to have been determined upon
and approved by the Treasury department as a
proper allowance for some years"
Upon this explanation the items were finally
approved
