Another C0untrY HomH-

The Junior Christian Endeavorers of the
District are planning some very practical
work for the coming summer. They have
in mind the establishment Of a Children s
Country Home" which shall be supported
by the contributions of the members of
Junior Christian Endeavor Societies in this
city. Since there are about 80 of these So
cieties, with total membership of over
1000, the home will doubtless receive the
support necessary to make it the success
which its object deserves. The plan in de-
tail Is to rent and furnish house at some
point in the country near to the city, where
poor children can be sent for a vacation. A
competent matron will be put in charge,
and she will be assisted from time to time
by the various young ladies who super
1ntendents Of junior societies of Christian
Endeavor.
The promoters of the scheme have ar
ranged for an entertainment to be given at
the Lutheran Memorial Church, Monday
evening. June is, at s o'clock. The funds
procured from this source will doubtless be
sufficient to put the enterprise upon good
financial basis, and the balance of the
money necessary to support the institution
Will be secured from contributions.

Violating the Fishing Laws.

To the Editor Of The Evening Star:
I have conversed with a large number of
anglers and others interested In protecting
our fish supply, and find a unanimous senti-
ment in favor Of strictly enforcing the pen
alties Of the law. Not only that, but they
are keeping up big thinking why the law
has not been carried out during this season,
since Its passage early this spring. 1t Is
we'll known that a seine has been drawn
nearly all the time at some point In the
District, between darkness and daylight,
during the fishing season, and many thous-
and fish, which had escaped the network Of
the lower Potomac, taken and sold In the
streets and markets of our city: and fur
ther, one has only to go to Little Falls to
witness the violation Of the laws daily, and
where on Sunday last, am informed, there
were eight violators at work at one time,
and gentleman and angler from this city.

spawning beds OF the upper Potomac have
been taken by dip nets at Little Falls and

Early Saturday ClosinRs

Te the Editor cf The Evering Star:
Your timely and manly editorial exposing

clerks at o'clock OF Saturdays during the
heated term deserves the thanks not only Of
| the clerks. but of the community at large.
1t is truly refreshing when an able and
popular Journal so neatly punctures the pre-.
! lenses of these would-be economists, who
are seeking after a little cheap notoriety By
adding to the many edicts which make the
official life OF the government clerk a bur-
den. What with the mental anxiety
whether they have any 'granduncles

the fractions of a minute they are absent

havoc the "Dockery commission" will bring
about, it may be truly said that the lot of
the government clerk is not a happy enc"
The writer is not one of them, but truly
sympathizess with them. How is II that our
officials. whose representative legal con-
seientiousness prohibits their allowing the
tired and hard-worked clerks to 70 cat

law for their own incoming and oute DING
reporting, as some of them do, at their
etiees daily as late as IL o'clock a. m.

tco much attention, to the neglect of
weightier matters, has of late been focused
upon the government clerk. both by Con-
eress and the executive heads Of depart

Irrepresstble Arlie Latham made himself
heard once or twice Saturday afternoon at

man was happy. for his club won the third
game OF the series from Washington, and
it deserved to win. for not a club in the
league would have been able to overcome
the perfect fielding Of the Porkopolitans.
Chamberlain pitched for Cincinnati and was
SO well supported that only four hits were
made; but. on the other hand, Comiskey's
men had no difficulty in securing fifteen
hits off Petty and Mercer, who succeeded
him in the seventh inning. The features
OF the game were the fielding of Shortstop
