All people as soon they emerge from
the most savage state begin to grope
about for a god, but 1t is only the Christian
religion which has developed in it's fullest
flower the conception of a life beyond the

Treasury Department Precautions.
The smallpox scare has reached the Treas
ury Department in a very mild form. A
lady clerk In the internal revenue bureau
boarded in the house on 18th street where
Judge Rucker of the Interior Department
was taken down with the disease. There is
no reason to suppose that she has been af-
fected by the disease. but as a matter of
precaution IL was thought best to put her
in quarantine so far as her official associates
are concerned and to destroy the chair
cushion and the shawl she used during office
hours. Other articles about her desk that
could harbor smallpox germs were also de-
stroyed by fire and the desk and chair We're
fumigated. The lady has been given indefi-
mite leave Of absence.
Steam Disinfection.
Surgeon General Wyman of the marine
hospital service and Health Officer Wood
ward held a consultation last night. when
they discussed the situation. The case of Il
woman. related TO one of the smallpox
patients, who went tc Charles county. was
mentioned, and 1t was thought advisable
to notify the Maryland authorities, which
was done. The big steam diSnfecting ap-
paratus rendered TO the use of the District
by Surgeon General Wyman will probably
be in operation at the quarantine station
this afternoon or tomorrow morning.
Emergency Physicians Busy.
From early morning until late this after
noon streams of people have been besieging
the physicians at the Emergency Hospital
to have their arms scrape5 and touched
with the magic vaccine virus. The stan
secured from the health Office a large sup
ply OF points, and the young men on the
house stan set to work to vaccinate all
Corners They were of all ages. sizes, and
both sexes and colors. Many children barred
their arms to the steel blades, and quite
number of well-dressed business men
entered during the noon hour to get their
systems prepared against infection. At
about IL O'Clock a stylishly dressed young
lady. with a dozen youngsters following
her, entered the hospital and explained
that she was a teacher In the public schools
and that her satellites were her pupils.
They were vaccinated in batch. 1t is
probable that upward of a hundred people
were treated in this way during the day.

Health Officer Woodward called on Maj.

ed from the applicants for positions on the
police force to watch houses in which
smallpox patients may be located. 1t is
more than probable, DIR. Woodward thinks,
that the family of some one who may be
stricken with the disease will object to the
removal of the patient, and then it will be
necessary to have the house watched and
prevent persons from going in and out of
the sick room as far as possible.
In this connection the health authorities
are keeping under surveillance, as far rs
possible, the servants who were employed
in the 18th street boarding house, as well

RECIPROCAL REL Alto N S

For some days past there has been In
Washington a most interesting woman who
is connected with prominent reform
movement in Australia. This IL MISS
Catherine Helen Spence, who came to this
country as a delegate to the congress OF
charities and corrections in Chicago last
summer Miss Spence was in attendance
at the sessions of the convention or the
National Woman SufrageAssocla-
ton in this city. At one of the afternoon
sessions she conducted an election whlch
demonstrated to the association the Aus
tralian ballot system. Miss Spence lives at
Adelaide and is a member of the state
children's council of South Australia.
Australia as well as the other British
colonies in that section of the globe mas
hit upon a method of caring Tor dependent
and delinquent children which seems to
work most admirably there, and during he-
stay in this city Miss Spence has been Wis
tied by many people who are interested IN
this matter who have gotten many good
ideas from her. Australia has given up al
together the maintenance of rounding nos
pitfalls and orphan asylums and has substl-
tuted for this the system OF placing children

Reciprocal Relations.
Our government" said Miss Spence in
answer to a query from a Star reporter,
has grasped the idea that child who for
any reason is thrown upon the public is a
charge upon the state, which owes a duty
not only to the child, but to itself. The
child will grow into a citizen, and it is to
the interest of the community that it should
develop into respectable, self-respectinS

that 1t stands to such a child in loco pa

what is the best thing for the child. The
natural answer is a home and a mother.

A BACK NUMBER MOTOR.
4 Prominent Electrician Declares
Against the Overhead Trolley.

The convention of electrical men now IN
this city is made up for the most part Of
those VINO are interested in electric lighting.
but there are a number who are familiar
to a greater or less degree with the sub
ject of electrical locomotlon. Among these
one Of the most prominent and best in
formed is Mr.. J. II. Vail of New York. pres
ident and chief engineer of the electrical
and Mechanical Engineering and Trading
Company Mr.Vah began his connection with
applied electricity with Mr.. Edison in 1850.
and has been prominently known In the
electrical world ever since. Recently he
has put in section of underground cur
rent railroad in New York. which is work.
ing In the most satisfactory manner and
over which cars have been run with suo-
cess at the rate OF thirty miles an hour.
Mr.. Vail was seen at the Ebbi:t House
this morning by Star reporter and asked
his opinion as to the possibilities and adj
vantages Of the underground system OF
street car lines. THE underground system"
said Mr.. VAIL has many advantages over
the overhead trolley that are not generally
recognized. For example IL has been esti-
mated. or rather proved, that the annual
depreciation Of an overhead line is IL per
cent year. owing to it's exposure, while
the depreciation of the underground system
Is but per cent As regards the prac-
ticability of the underground system / can
say from experience that Il is thoroughly
rscticable at the present date to put in a
surface system with all the conductors un-
foreground. There are a number of ways
of accomplishing this, though my own prefer
ence is for an absolutely closed system
that is. thoroughly moisture-proof, and this
l regard as the latest advance in electrical
engineering
The Buda Pesth system is a decided sue
cess, but 1 am confident that we can i'm
prove upon and have improved upon that
in this country. An Englishman recently
said that European electricians must come
TO this country to get the latest ideas in
electrical work. This is true. We are away
in advance Of any other country in this
line, and the time is past when any one
can say with reason that the underground
system is not feasible. There is no place
where ii could be put In operation with
such prospects of success as right here In
Washington. Your asphalt streets are the
very perfection as a foundation for this
system and there is no earthly reason why
your beautiful streets should be marred or
INSTRUCTED in any effort to secure rapid
transit"
