Pleased With the Report,
A Perambulating SwindIer.

To the Editor Of The Evening Star:
On the principle that it is the duty of
every honest man to protect other honest
men from being imposed upon, I desire to
warn the public against a woman who has
been recently going about from house to
house with what she describes as hand
made lace" This woman called upon my
wife last week with several remnants of
lace, saying that she and her daughter
made such articles for a living, In Balti-
more. where she resided, and that each
year she came here to sell what they had
made. She represented that this was all
she had left, SO that she would be willing
to reduce her price from 81 per yard to
30 cents, and throw in the small pieces, as
she was anxious to return home Upon
these representations the lace was pur-
chased; subsequent inquiry developed the
fact that the stuff was merely machine
made lace, purchased at the bargain coun-
tiers of our large dry goods stores and
worth. at a liberal estimate not a Quarter
OF the price paid for it. This Information
was obtained from such an authority as To
place its reliability beyond question. Hence
this mote of warning for the benefit Of
others who might have listened to the other
sue Oh the case only. ]. II. H.

How They Have Enriched the City
Of Glasgow.

To the Editor Of The Evening Star:
Apropos of the discussion of the bill for
the extension of the tracks Of the Belt
Line railroad Oh. r. $685., it may be in
teresting to your readers, inside and out
side of the House of Representatives, to see
how such franchises have been made
source Of profit to the municipality If Glas-
gov, Scotland, while securing most excel
lent facilities of transit for the people, with
special fares of 1 cent a mile, morning and
evening, for workingmen.
What is said of the quality and cost of
gas, the cleaning of streets and the disposal
OF garbage, may also be instructive. The
interview, which is printed in the Philadel-
phia Press, is as follows:
William E. Haworth of Scotland, who has
been sojourning at the Aldine. speaks CT
Glasgow as the model city of the continent.
Said he: 'Over 100000 has been spent in
giving the city a most complete set of wa
ter works. Over twenty years ago the &C.
centric George Francis Train came to Glas-
gov from this country and offered to build
street railway through the city. In 1870
the city began the construction of its own
lines and after completing them, leased
them to corporation upon the condition
that they pay the city the whole interest
on the original investment and in addition,
set aside sinking fund that at the end of
the term would extinguish the entire debt.
The road was to be kept in the best of or
the present year, after paying an annual
rental of $50 per mile. In this way the
city OF Glasgow takes possession soon of
property worth millions of dollars that has
not cost the city one penny. The leasehold
was sold to the corporation for $3.50, 600 and
the fare was limited to cents per mile; all
workingmen, however, at certain hours of
the day were allowed to travel at l cent
per mile During the whole of this lease
term, Notwithstanding these liberal pay
ments for the use of the franchise the Ger
poration declared an average dividend of 10
per cent.
The city is also supplied with the very
nrst quality Of gas furnished by its own
plant, the rate being GO cents per 1000 feet
our population is about 100000, just one
third of the number of people in Philadel-
phia. The net expense for cleaning the
streets per year is 100000. but $4,000 a
year is derived from the sale of street gar
bage for farm and fertilizing purposes, and
after the payment of all labor the net re-
turn to the city is from 20 to 80 cents per
ton on all garbage sold for farm fertilizers
Nothing but the odds and ends are inciner-
ated. This may be an object lesson for
Philadelphia"
Think of the finest quality of gas at &C
cents per loo feet, and of a city acquiring
such railroad system free and clear with
out the expenditure of cent. c. X.

THE TENNIS CHAMPIONSHIP.
Will Not BE Held by Any of the Local
Players.

The southern tennis championship in
singles will not remain in this city. That
result was determined by the playing in the
second day of the tournament held yes.er-
day, under the auspices of the Southern
Lawn Tennis Association, on the grounds of
the Bachelor Club, NJ street between Con-
necticut avenue and 18th street There was
no general expectation that this honor
would fall on any Washington player, espe-
cially after the first day Of the tournament
The class of the visiting players was then
pretty well defined. and it was evident that,
barring accidents the chances of the Dis
trict champion, Mr.. John c. Davidson car
rying OF the first prize were not especially
good. This was based on two grounds; first
that he was outclassed by Mr.. Fischer, and
second, that he was not playing in his
usual form. He met Mr.. Fischer in the
third round yesterday afternoon and the
contest was one of the most interesting of
the entire series of games. and showed TO
advantage the skill and experiences of the
two players. The scores OF the two sets
were 81 and rs.
The only game in the first round which
was not played en- the first day was the
one between c. c. Clark and j. Shields.
They played three sets, Clark winning by
score of rs, 81 and "a. Mr.. Clark then
in the second round, met Mr.. Lansdaie, and
Clark today is to play Mr.. Parker in the
third round. and the winner will meet Mr.
Fischer in the finals.
Consolation Prixes
Those who were defeated In the first
rounds on Monday began a series Of games
yesterday for a consolation prize. Harry
Smith Of Baltimore defaulted to Shields.
Shields was then matched, with Mccain
mon, the latter winning after a long con-
test by scores Of 81, SO and g.. Goodfel-
low beat Clay, Ga and rs. Biddle- and
Lieber played one set. rs, and will finish
this afternoon. Needham and Bethel are
matched also in the consultations, but have
not played yet
The consultations up to the finals will all
be played today. The doubles up to the
finals will also be played. The finals in the
consolation matches, the finals in the singles
which decides the championship, and the
finals in the doubles are left for tomorrow.

DEFEATED THE CORNELLs.
| A Lively Game Won by the George
town University Nine.

town University Nine.
Georgetown yesterday secured revenge
for last years defeat. Four runs in the
first inning of the Georgetown-Cornell game
at National Park practically decided the
contest in favor Of the blue and the gray.
Pitcher Smith of Cornell presented the
first three batters. Harley, Ed. Mahoaey
and Cotter, with bases on balls, and then
big Bob Carmody drove one over the CEN
ter fielder's head for two bases. On O'Neirs
error Carmcdy reached the plate. After
that the visiting twirler settled down, and
the Georgetown boys scored but three more
runs during the remainder of the contest.
Cornell Tailed only in the fourth and fifth.
Although the visitors greatly outbatted the
home team, Dowd should not be responsible
for number of the hits which were Sc
cured through poor judgment of the
Georgetown fielders With men on bases
Dowd was nearly invincible. The visiting
team fielded much the more sharply of the
two, cutting off many hits that seemed
safe. The Georgetowns showed better team
work, sacrificing when necessary, and run
ming bases more skillfully. Owing to
neglect to properly advertise the game only
few hundred were present, among whom
were number of pretty girls, who Loyalty
displayed the white and carnelian-Cornells
