WHY CAMPHoR is so DEAR.
Great Quantities of 1t Are Now Used in
Making Smokeless Powder.

Great Quantities of 1t Are Now Used in
Making Smokeless Powder.
'Its going to cost you a hundred per cent.
more to keep the moths out of your winter
clothes this summer than it did last the drug
clerk said.
How is that - the customer asked.
"Why, camphor costs double what it did
year ago." the clerk answered. 1T is going
down a little now, but it is still very high
HAS some one been cCnering t?"
"No; they say the increase in price is due to
the fact that camphor is now used so much in
the arts that the demand is greater than the sup
ply all the time. Camphor enters largely into
the composition of the smokeless powder which
is now being adopted in all the European armies.
Immense quantities of this smokeless powder
are being made, in Germany especially, and this,
Of course, is having its effect on the camphor
market. Then camphor is employed in making
celluloid, the use Of which for all sorts of pur-
poses is increasing steadily. If the drain on the
camphor supply continues in this way it will
soon be luxury that only the wealthy can af-
ford.n
"Where does our camphor come from ?'
"From the East Indies nearly altogether, | be-
! leye. We get it through the London market.
| The bark of the camphor tree is brought to Eng
land and there the gum is extracted The eX-
pertinent was made of bringing the bark to this
country and extracting the gum here, but it was
found that too large percentage of the cam
phor eyaporated on the long voyage. Now some
of the English dealers have moved their plants
to the East, and will treat the bark right where
it grows and thus avoid the long voyage to Eng
! land"

War on Chicago Gamblers.

CHICAGO, May 3l,-On complaint of the
Doily NepS which is waging unrelenting war
on the gamblers of the city, party of con-
stables, with axes and crowbars, forced an en-
trance into the gambling-house of George
Hankins, one of the most widely known in the
city and carted away all the gambling mple-
ments In the place-about two tons. These
on proof of their uses, an order for their de
struction was entered They were destroyed.
This is the second raid of the character made
by the NeWS. This course is taken for the pur-
pose of demonstrating that gambling is going
on in the city in spite OF the claim made by the
city administration that, in obedience to orders,
the police have closed all of the gambling
houses,

A HIGH SCHOOL SENSATION.
Tickets to the Cadets Drill PurIoined
From the Principal's Desk.

Tickets to the Cadets Drill Purloined
From the Principals Desk.
The Washington High School is enjoying
sensation, and the climax is awaited with deep
interest by nearly one thousand students On
Wednesday evening the annual competition
drill of the High School Cadets took place, and
tickets were in great demand. On Saturday
evening last the principal of the school locked
up in his desk the entire batch of tickets, in
tending to distribute them on Monday to the
students.
When Monday came and the desk was opened
it was discovered that some one had stolen one
hundred and forty-seven tickets. The discovery
was humliating to the teachers, and it was
deemed best to call in what tickets had been
issued and get out new lot entirely The
pupils were notified of the theft, and at once
every one detailed himself as an amateur de-
tective to hunt down the miscreant. Several of
the old tickets were presented at the door for
admission, and this clue has led to the hope
that the thief will eventually be caught. The
honor OF the school is at stake, and the scholars
are determined to unearth the thief.

To Prevent Near.sightedness.

A tendency to near-sightedness can be lessened
by rubbing the eyes with gentle pressure from
the corner next to the nose outward This re-
peated number of times each day the corner is
tattened and the angle of vision heightened.
Sit up when you read 1t is a ruinous habit to
lie down to use your eyes in this way. Be sure
you will pay dearly for the indulgence, and last,
but by no means least, do not cry unless you
wish to destroy the beauty and brilliancy OF the
eye.

That large and constantly growing class of
papers and persons who are so degenerate and
un-Ameriean as to advocate civil service reform
are having great deal Of fun with First Assist
ant Postmaster General CLARKsoS these days
Mr.. CLARKsoN has been making a series Of
speeches denouncing civil service reform and
extolling the beauties and benefits of the spoils
system. These speeches, considered sentence
by sentence, have a robustious ring and pseudo
frankness well calculated TO nightly enthuse a
gathering of unterrfed ward-workers, but when
the sentences are contrasted Que with the other
they are found to be hopeless misfts. In fact,
the ideas contained in them don't gibe. They
are so fearfully and wonderfully contradictory
that the reader might be pardoned for regarding
them as the mouthings of muddle-headed
Mugwump rather than the utterances of clear
Drained and logical practical politician, What
can be the matter with Mr.. CLARKsoN? Have his

Senator STEWART made some very grave
charges against Maj. POWELL, director of the
Geological Survey, in the Senate on Thursday.
If the Senator believes what he said to be true
and it is incredible that he would have made the
allegations in = public debate in the Senate
otherwise-he owes it to the country, to Maj.
POWELL, and to himself to move for an investi-
cation of the management of the Geological
Survey. Similar charges against this bureau
have been made number of times in Congress
and in the press during the past few years. Isn't
it about time that an investigation was under
taken by Congress? The Geological Survey is
charged with delicate and very important duties,
and Congress is called on annually to appropri-
ate hundreds of thousands of dollars for its
maintenance. If these duties are not faithfully
and intelligently performed, if these large sums
of money are not properly spent, it is high time
the country was made aware of the fact.

The Senate acted with most commendable
promptness on the City Post Office matter. On
Thursday it passed the bill with the amendment
providing for the purchase as a site for the
building Of the square south Of the Avenue op-
poste the Ereaing star Office. The bill will now
go to a conference committee, and it is believed
no difficulty will be experienced in securing the
assent of the House to the amendment changing
the site However, it is to be hoped the idea of
providing quarters in the proposed new build
ing for the Sixth Auditors Office or any other
office will be abandoned The force of the City
Post Office should have exclusive possession of
the edifice. 1t should be devoted altogether to
the postal business of the citizens of Washing
ton, and all intermingling Of United States
Government business should be avoided. If il
is not, sooner later trouble will arise, and, as
usual in such cases the interests Of the city will
suffer. Let the building be devoted wholly and
exclusively to the uses Of the City of Washing
ton.

To generous and broad-minded citizens of the
North the splendid outburst of sentiment which
marked the unveiling Of the LEE statue at Rich
mond on Thursday will bring no bitter thoughts
nor harsh sectional feeling. 1t was noble trib-
ute from a warm-hearted and enthusiastic peo-
pie, not to the leader of a cause which was dear
to them, but to man Of the finest qualities of
head and heart whose memory they still cherish
and desire to honor though he led them to de-
feat. On people capable of such disinterested
sentiment the yirulent denunciatlons of bigoted
Northern partisans can have but one effect, and
that the worst. A magnanimous respect for its
feelings and broad tolerance of the expires.
sion of them will assuredly do more to again
weld the South inseparably to the North than
hateful recrminations and abuse.

There was time not so many years ago when
Washington shoppers could in some degree JUS
tify their custom of going to Baltimore Phila-
delphia, or New York to make purchases. The
lack of first-class shops in any line of business
in this city, the small stocks of goods carried by
the local dealers, and the dearness of prices as
compared with other cities furnished this ap-
parent justification.
But in the last ten years all this has changed.
Our merchants have become thoroughly imbued
with the spirit of progress and enterprise which
has developed Washington as if by magic from
an overgrown village into city of metropoli-
tan size and tone. AS the town has grown in
wealth and population with equal step our
leading merchants have erected emporiums of
fine proportions wherein are to be found arrays
of merchandise of every quality and price, from
the dearest to the cheapest and these prices
are equally as low, all things considered, as the
same lines of goods are offered for in other
cities.
This being the case the people of Washington
no longer have the slightest excuse for going
from home to make purchases. In fact as good
citizens who desire in every way possible to aid
in the development of the city, it is their duty
as well as to their interest to patronize home
industry and encourage home enterprise.
Money that is earned in Washington should be
spent here.
And further, preference should always be
given to the established business men of the
city who are interested in its growth, who have
their homes here, who pay their share of the
taxes, and otherwise identify themselves with
the well-being of the community. Itinerant
merchants who set up their shops here for
month or for a season, with no intention of be
coming permanent residents and with no desire
but to sell their wares at the best prices posi-
BILE and then return whence they came with the
proceeds, should not be patronized to the de
triment Of resident firms Not only should The
citizens give the latter the preference, but tht
authorities should see to it that the laws are Sc
in operation to the end that itinerant merchant
are allowed no unfair advantages. They should
be made to fag well for the privileges accorded
them. y high license tax should be imposed o.
these transient dealers. Iti done the world over
and Washington where success in business
for obvious reasons beset with unusual Difficult
ties should assuredly be no exception to tn
rule Washington, owing to its lack of a com
mercial and manufacturing population, is place
at a disadvantage with other cities, and what
ever the law can do for our merchants to offse
these disadvantages should be fearlessly an
steadily done by the authorities.
