tne eighteenth century one-thirtieth of the
nations population dwelt in towns of 10000

one-rourth OF the population. Washington
Is the ward of the nation. Daily the his

the land by press associations and able

are indirectly citizens of Washington. 1t

District line; real estate dealers. more bent
on getting cash returns than in beautify-
ing the city, were responsible for unevenly
laid out suburbs. The hills of Washington
were deserving of as much regard as the
hills of the Eternal City. Alley houses
would have to go, and cheap and rapid
transportation was the thing to make them
go. Perpetual franchise to street railroads
was wrong. Two-cent fares, as charged
now in Paris and Berlin for short distances,
must come. Washington would have, and
should have, the interests OF humanity at
heart, rather than the interests of property.

THE FIRST INNATE.
Lula Harrison Sent to the Girls Re-
form School.

form school.
The Girls Reform School has an inmate.
Her name Is Lula Harrison and although
only fifteen years old she is an experienced
thief. Lula stole baby carriage several
months ago and having no baby to occupy
the vehicle she sold it to a secondhand
dealer for 81. That theft she followed by
Others but Jail sentences had no effect
on her. Judge Miller lectured the girl and
even went so far as to predict that she
would some day get into the Girls Reform
School, for he knew that such an institu-
ton would have to be provided. Wednesday
morning Lula visited the Wallach school
building, as heretofore mentioned in The
Star, and walked out with two coats. One
coat, handsome blue beaver garment.
trimmed with mink fur, belonging to Miss
tan colored coat of Miss Willenbucher she
carried on her arm. Dressed in such good
clothes Lula walked down the street with
out exciting suspicion.
When the loss was discovered and the
teachers went home shivering they made
complaint to the police, but received no
encouragement. The teachers, however,
made known to the children in the building
their intention to reward the one who
caused the arrest of the thief and then the
many amateur detectives started out to
see If they could not get ahead of the police.
Ohicer Kelly, on whose beat the robbery
took place, interested himself in the case,
but the boys were far ahead Of him in the
investigation and Ii was due to their work
that the fair Lula finally got into the hands
of the police and both coats were recov-
cred.
Lula appeared in court Saturday and
plead guilty to the charge.
Judge Miller recognized her as having
been In court before and an officer told
the judge that three or four crimes of this
kind were recorded against her.
How old are your" the court asked the
girl
THE only way to put stop to your steal
ing" added the judge, lis to lock you up.
You will have to go to the Reform School
during minority"
1t was stated that the Reform School
would not be ready to receive any one for
a few days and the judge said that she
could remain in jail until that time.

THE COLORED RACE.
Their Educational Advances Told In
Lectures Last Night.


Mr.. Booker T. Washington, president of
the Normal and Industrial Institute Of Tus-
keegee, Ala, and Prof. r. H. Hamilton ad-
dressed a large audience yesterday after
noon at the Colored Young Mems Christian
Association on the progress Of educational
work among the colored people at the south.
The race. stimulated and encouraged by
the good work In the line Of education done
by the noble people of the north. were now
pushing on themselves to great achieve
ments. Mr.. Washington told of the eager
ness of the colored youth to learn, and that
by study they were working out their sal
walton. Prof. Hamilton said that In the
absence of school houses so strong was the
desire of colored children to learn that Open
air classes were organized, and even in cold
weather, gathered around a camp fire, the
scholars would go through their lessons
with ambition and zeal Many Of the abb
surd superstitions of the colored people were
being exploded. and the belief of the rising
generation In spells, charms, luck and
ghosts was being shattered. He condemned
the explanatory and double-lunged variety
of religion, but said that he noted improve
ment even in that direction. Lung athletics
did not mean piety, and noise could not be
palmed Off as reverence.
Last night MIR. Washington spoke on the
same subject at Congregational Church
The object of Mr.. Washingtons visit 10 the
north Is to raise funds for the institute
Last season he refused over 200 pupils ad-
mission, because of lack of accommodation.

field Of the Anti-Saloon League. He ex-
planned that the league is opposed to the
liquor traffic, not to the individuals engaged
in it. The temperance advocates, he said,
should study the saloon keeper. and profit
by the example he shows them in a united,
answering allegiance to the defense Of his
business.
The regular monthly meeting of the tenn
perance committee of the Fifteenth Street
Presbyterian Church was held last night
The address of the evening was made by
denunciation of the general government for
permitting the manufacture and sale Of
liquors. She also excoriated the District
government for licensing saloons in the city.
The choir rendered several fine selections.

The Port Tobacco. Nd, Times withdraws
the Charles county democratic ticket from
the head Of its columns and urges demo-
Gratis to do all in their power to defeat 1t.
The Times Endorsed the county ticket after
the state convention decided In favor of the
regularity of the county convention that
nominated 1t. but its change of position is
sought to be explained in an editorial In
which the reason ascribed is that since the
county commissioners have refused to COM
ply with the recommendation OF the county
convention to app ~int judges for an cleo
ton upon the location of the county seat
the democratic candidates have pledged
themselves to have the question submitted
to popular vote by the legislature instead
OF having the election this fall which the
Times claims to have been the condition
upon which 1t Endorsed the ticket. The re-
publican and populist party are pledged to
have the legislature authorize the county
seat election, as well the democrats.
