How to Induce ReSpiratiou.

A method OF inducing respiration by
means of ice applied to thOfps has been
discovered by DR.. Berthnld Beer, Ger
man physician. The mucous membrane OF
the lips and of the mouth is rubbed sinwly
with piece of ice, the rhythm of the melton
corresponding as closely as possible to
that of normal respiration. In thecases OBJ
served by DR.. Beer the result was a return
of respiration, very strong at first, but
with the continued application of the ice
becoming very regular, quiet and deep.
The ice used in this way is said to have,
moreover, general sedative effect, and the
author has employed this quieting action
with success in the treatment of cerebral
troubles. DR.. Foges, Of Vienna. has OBJ
tanned equally favorable results with this
treatment in two cases of asphyxia. In all
cases it is a method that may be en-
ployed for several hours at time, as it
is harmless for the patient and easy for the
physician. 1t also offers other advantages
owing to Its sedative action.

wAsHINGToN's GROWTH.

The showing made in Building Inspector
Brady's report as to building operations in
the District during the past fiscal year, is
quite encouraging, especially when it is
considered that-the report covers period
ofextreme business depression, an ameliura-
ton of which is just about beginning to
show itself Notwithstanding this depres-
sion, nearly $4,000, Goo were expended in
the erection of new buildings, which was
over 5000. 900 more than was spent III the
preceding twelve months.
This is exceedingly gratifying. 1t tdemoD-
strates not only the growth of the city or its
immediate needs, but the faith that Its
people-and many outside of its bounda-
rics-have in its future. 1t shows that real
estate in Washington is regarded as gord
investment. and that persons having money
to spare rather like to put it in property
here, because they are reasonably sure of
profitable returns.
Another most pleasing feature is brought
into prominence i'll the fact that of the 319
buildings erected during the year 234 were
dwellings. Many of these are put up for
wealthy people of other cities, who have
become charmed with Washington as a
winter resort, and who spend freely here of
their means. All this makes to the ad-
vantage of the merchants and the working
men, and again emphasizes the oft-repcated
assertion that there is no better place to
live than the Capital of the United States.

PLEA FOR FIRE ESCAPES.

The plea for more stringent legislation
in respect to fire escapes, made by Assistant
Inspector of Buildings Vermillion in his
report. is so reasonable that it Should have
the support of the entire community. 1t
orings the whole subject again promin emily
TO the front
Under the present statute buildings of
height of fifty feet and over are required
to have escapes. of course, not all com
ing under that category have them, because
the law is so defective that the commis'
sioners are powerless TO enforce 1t, eX-
cept in the case of hotels ard such other
buildings, part of which may be operated
as q barroom and thus require license.
But if 1t could be enforced there is loop
hole for certain kind of buildings, which
Mr. VerInillion wants to close. He wants
every building, other than private dweliin gs,
which is three stories in height to have an
escape As the case now stards a strrc-
ture only forty nine feet and six inches in
height is exempt.
o., This is inexcusable trifling and the law
ought to be so amended as to put stop
TO it. Moreover, the statute ought to be
strengthened in other ways. II should
not be possible for the owner of any build
ing to teopardize the lives OF perhaps hun
dreds of people just because he does not
want to go TO tie expense of putting up
a fire escape. This whole question of
fire escapes is one of dollars and cents
versus human life. There should be not
a seconds hesitation on which side to
place the protection and force of the law.

A Sensible Verdict.

A coroner in Nevada recently reasoned
out verdict more sensible than one-half
the verdicts usually rendered. 1t appeared
that an Irishman, conceiving that a little
powder thrown upon some green wood,
would facilitate its burning, directed a
small stream from keg upon the burning
piece, but not possessing hand sufficiently
quick to cut this off was blown into a
million pieces. The following was the
verdict, delivered with great gravity by
the official: Cant be called suicide,
bekase he didn't mean to kill himself; it
wasn't visitation of God,' bekase he didn't
die for want of breath, for he hadn't
anything to breathe with; it's plain he
didn't know what he was about, So shall
bring in--died for want OF common sense" ="

THE EIGHT.HoUR VIOLATION.

Should the effort to prosecute Contractor
Mcyaugh for violating the eight hour law
succeed il will do much to put an end TO
such lawlessness. As ii now is, the statute
is a dead letter in most government con-
tract work. The plea of emergency was
offered on every occasion where prosecu-
lion has been attempted, and although nu-
merous efforts have been made no convic-
uon has yet been secured.
The case of Contractor Mcvaugh is ee-
pecially fragrant. Instead of pleading
emergency, he deliberately conspired to
violate the law by making an agreement
with his employees in which they forfeited
their rights under the eight-hour statute.
II was an assinine proceeding, to say the
least, fnasmuch as the offense was against
The government and could not be condoned
by the employees. The public would prob

The Times Has the Largest Bona-Fide
Circulation.
Notwithstanding the vigorous efforts of
contemporaries to keep up with The Times,
that popular newspaper still heads the list.
The total circulation of the Star last week
was 1888, while that OF The Times
for the same period was 21S,719, or
4O,sS6 more than the Star. The actual
gain of The Times over its circulation for
last week was 6,334, which indicates
a prosperity never before known in Wash
ington newspaper circles.
The circul lation of The Times is bona-fid
and is not padded. 1t gives advertisers
better display, wider publicity, and hence,
larger returns.

"Shaft No. 3" which will be seen at the
Academy next week is an electrical drama
and an ingenious one If all reports are To be
believed. 1t has been warmly praised
everyw here because OF its novel and
startling electrical effects.
The storm scene of til ethird actis one ofthe
best that have been presented on the stage.
This scene shows the twilight OF the evening,
then the rising moon, its rays shimmering
on the waters of n winding river in the
background, then the scHrTying OF the clouds
across the face of the moon until 1t is COM
pleteiy Obscured and the storm breaks
forth in all its fury.
Tie heavy peals of thunder and the sharp,
quick flash of forked Lightning are de-
scribed as terribly realistic and the climax
even more so. A bolt descends and de-
stroys the villain who has been destroying
an electrical ma chine belonging to the hero.
The scene in the second act, sho wing one OF
the levels of the mine. with cars ascending
and descending the incline is another re-
markable proof of the effects that can be
secured 10y the ma rvelOus ingenuity OF the

The first to he given, The Case OF X e.

occasioned more talk upon its presenta-
tion in London, possibly, than any play
seen there for several years. Part of this
was due 10 the fact that Mr.. Jones had been
known previously to write plays of serious
tendency, while this one was purely comedy,
and partly because of the somewhat auda-
cious, yet thoroughly delicate, way III
which lie handled the subject. which was

COMING TO THE rHEATERS.

Interest in the coming production OF
1.-THE Bachelors Baby at the Grand Opera
House next week, aside from the fact
that ii brings with 1t, those stellar artists,
Mr.. and Mrs. Sidney Drew, an d the sterl-
ing author, actor, ard stage director, Mr..
Mckee Rankin, oenters largely in the fact
that the author. Miss Coyne Fletcher, is
a resident of Washington, and not un-
known to fame as lterateur and play
wright.
In 1.-The Bachelors Baby" Coyne Fletcher
presents a charming comedy, built upon
lines new TO the stage It is essentially
a military comedy, pure and simple, with
out Indians, fighting, tramping of horses,
or intimation of strife. Only the bright
side of military life, i'll far " estern Army
post, Is presented with an attendant scandal
to furnish the comedy element
A dash of the serious, together with
charming love episodes are Intertwined
with the plot OF the story, which, with the
military surroundings and effects, form a
background To the picture, pleasing In
effect.
As Broderick ID. Arcy, jr., post adJutant,
Mr.. Sidney Drew will be seen in one OF his
greatest comedy creations. Mrs. Sidney
Drew, as Billy Breeze, sister or the entire
regiment, appears in an entirely new role,
and one IN which she Will not suffer in cos.l-
MIR. Mckee Rankin assumes the character OF
Col; darcy, senior commandant of Fort
Rodney, and viii no doubt duplicate his
former successes.
A strong east, including Miss Rose Ey-
tlnge, will support these weilknowD stars,
while new and special scenic effects and
elaborate stage settings viii serve To make
