Hungry for SpOils.

To the Editor Of The Evening Star:
The article entitled Hungry for Spoils" in
Saturdays STAR informs us that the name of
woman viii soon disappear from the govern
ment rolls The principal reason given for this
exclusion il to afford the chiefs of bureaus a
more favorable opportunity of practicing pro-
family and other vices. Was the governmen Mt
made for man alone? Man naturally prefers
the assistance of man to degrade himself and
disgrace the dignity of his position and avoids
the elevating and refining influence of woman
IL is another assurance of the degeneracy of
man However. it il gratifying to know that in
the near future weak manhood will be provided
for within government walls. to the exclusion of
brave and noble woman. who has been endowed
by her Creator with greater powers Of endurance
to contend with the battles Of life. The average
man of our land today being left alone with a
family of children dependent upon MIN will
quickly scatter the little ones to homes opened
for them, snbiecting them to discomfort and
cruelty; but the mother under like eircum-
stances will gather her little flock around her,
striving to rear them a credit to themselves and
an honor to herself and glory to God. By all
means make exclusive provision for puny man.

''This statement, say the commission, shows
very startling growth of the number Of gov
eminent employees compared with the growth
OF population. Ii is also of interest when CON-
pared with the figures showing the growth of
the classified service. The civil service law
went into effect in 1888. about IA, 500 employees
being then included within its provisions, while
In that year the total number of employees in
the service of the United States was, in round
numbers, l3l 900 In 1891 the classified serv-
ice embraced some "a, 200 places, while the en-
tire public service included in the neighbor-
hood of $4,000 In other words, the growth
of the public service had been over 80 per
cent. much faster growth than that of the
population in the same time. 1t is hardly
necessary to point out that this growth of a
service which can be used for political ends is a
rapidly increasing menace to republican gov
eminent The evil is offset only BIZ the fact
that the classified service has grown even faster
In the same space of time, increasing at the
rate of about $50 per cent. so that whereas only
about II per cent of the public service was re-
mOved from party politics in 1888, nearly 10
per cent in 1891 was SO removed"

Where did you get that overcoat?" the Judge
inquired
''Of c-o-u-r-s-e," stammered the prisoner
who proceeded to say that they were brothers,
but the judge told him that his action was ne,
brotherly one.
Take off that cont" said the Judge, and the
prisoner gave up the overcoat that WAS on his
back.
Next the sack coat and trousers which he
wore were identified as stolen property, but as
he needed some covering the Judge did not
make him shed any more Of his garments and
he wore them to Jail. where he went for six
months, dressed in the garb of dude

ALEXANDRIA.
THE ALEXANDRIA STREET RAILWAY.

! THE ALEXANDRIA STREET RAILWAY
| The Washington, Alexandria and Mt. Vernon
Electric Railroad Company has been quite sue
cessful in its connection with New Alexandra
and Mt. Vernon, but has not yet found it to be
! 20 its interest TO lay down the extended stree,
railways in Alexandria, for which II has OBJ
tanned the right Of way from the city council,
although the time for the construction of the
extended street railway will expire at the close
Of this month. The city council will, however,
1t 10 believed follow the popular wish and on ap-
plication, would certainly extend the time two or
three years. as to give the electric railway
psny time to realize the Mt Vernon traffic
a sufficient sum to lay the railway on Oronoko,
Patrick. Payne and Duke streets, &c,
90 as TO make a completed street railway line
The act OF the council Of April II, 1899, after
giving the electric railway the right over King
street from the river to the corporation line on
the west on condition that IL should have its
line complete and in operation from the foot Of
King street to the western terminus Of the
town in l20 days after the LIST Of May, 1892, it
enacts that:
IF the said company shall fail to construct
its line OF railway on the other streets named
in this ordinance on or before the list day Of
January, 1888. the grant to the use Of any other
streets within the corporate limits other than
hing street by this ordinance shall be void and
Of no effect"
The act OF January %, 1892, contains also
provision in the same words. The city councils
will, however, it is said comply, under proper
conditions, with any wishes Of the Electric Rail-
road Company as to an extension of the time
even to Eve years

which fell and was broken. Thought your
earthquake had come, didn't you?" queried a
newspaper man. 1--WE know we was movin'."
was the reply, "but we knowed the Lord would
tako care of us, but we was skeered about the
things In the house." The work Of under
pinning the dwellings will have to be renewed.
