Under the heading "Stop my paper, u
an exchange says: That is about the
way newspaper man is greeted every
now and then by an irate individual
whose corns have been accidentally trod-
den upon by an article he read in the
paper, and his resultant rage causes him
to rush to the editorial sanctum or he
sends a postal card, ordering the i'm
mediate discontinuance of his paper.
Then hs feels better, takes drink and
subscribes for the opposition sheet.
There is, however, dark lining to his
silver cloud. The editor did not beg him
TO reconsider his determination, did not
turn pale or faint. He simply scratched
that mans name off his list of subscri-
editorial giving advice to Cleveland as to
how he should conduct his administra-
ton.
All this strikes the outraged subscriber
as curious, but he goes home fully i'm
bued with the idea that something aw-
full is going to happen to that bold, brash
editor because he discontinued his paper.
10 his amazement and anger the paper
appears again with its accustomed regu-
larity and there is not even line to de-
note the fact that the editor is laboring
under stress of mental anguish because
copy of the paper has been stopped.
The paper goes on in the calm even
tenor of its way; it does not have a re-
ceiver appointed and does not go into
bankruptcy; the editor does not commit
suicide, the sun continues to shine, and
the disappointed ex-subscriber, after
waiting little while longer for chaos to
set in, hurries back to the office and has
his name placed once more on the sub
scription roll. Then he feels that load
has been removed from his conscience.

A Difference in Paying Bills.

An exchange says "It's no sign that
man is rich because he pays his bills
promptly" Not by any manner of
means. There are poor men and men
OF moderate means who pay as they 90.
on the principle that it is not only honest,
but that it is the safest. On the other
hand, there are rich people who,
whether from indisposition or from in
ability to understand that those to
whom they are indebted actually need
the money due them, rarely pay until
almost forced to do SO.
There are many such, and the pity is
that their numbers so nearly approach
legion. Not to pay a bill when you
have the money, and especially when it
IS due, may not perhaps be styled a
crime, but it is very far from being what
is meant by doing right.

More About Geological Excursions.

To the Editor Of The Evening Star:
The very timely article by Miss Brown In
your issue of yesterday will meet with gen.
eral approval. particularly the items relat-
Ing to dismissing school that the teacher
may go to lectures. grade meetings, draw
Ing class. health class, geological excur-
sions. etc.
This abuse is an evil Of great magnitude
and should be summarily stopped. 1 have
three children in the schools, all of whom
are supposed ID to go to whole day schools,
yet, as a fact, they are out of school on an
average three days in every week at
O'Clock. The excuse Is grade meeting,
health class, lecture or drawing or some
other excuse, thus making the schools we
pay for as whole day schools really halliday
schools.
Now. 1t is a fact that only a few of the
parents who have large families are able
to Keep them in school long enough to fin
ish the grades. therefore it is a crying
shame to rob the children of the time that
the teacher may go to these entertainments.
Another evil is that it turns the children
loose on the streets to engage in mischief.
or annoys the mother by having them
around her heels when they should be in
school
The charge for public schools Is very
heavy and growing more every year
and it's the duty OF the Commissioners or
school board to see that the taxpayers get
the full measure OF their money.
Formerly II was the custom to have all
such meetings and lectures on Saturday Let
US return to 1t again. and. in the meantime
let the parents urge upon the trustees to
forbid any school to be closed earlier than
the regular hour except as a dire neces-
sity. Let the evenings be set apart for such
purposes MIR. BROWN

WHAT Is A VAGRANTf
Judge Kimba1I Gives a Definition
With Practical Illustrations.

In Judge Kimbalrs court this morning
seven persons were in the dock on charges
of violation of the various clauses of the
vagrancy act. During recent weeks the
number of vagrancy cases has largely in

Policeman jacobson of the third pre-

colored men today. He charged them with
vagrancy ard they plead not guilty. The
officer stated that he had seen them stand

work.

the prisoners, land / do laboring work, -

couple from Georgetown, answered not gull

last night and Policeman Curren found
them staggering about Hungry Hill" That
was all he said about them.

While Judge Klmball did not indorse the
drunkenness he told the officer that one
drunk did not make a vagrant of any one

they been charged with disorderly conduct
the judge said the finding would probably
have been different.

hind the bars, but during the evening he
used nail on the lock and succeeded in

escaped from the building had not the sta
tionkeeper happened to walk in the cell
loom as the prisoner was about to leave.
Some months ago, when locked up at the
