DOLLAR GAS IN TIE DARK.
Senate Committee WithhoIds the Report
Upon the Measure.

Senate Committee WithhoIds the Report
Upon the Measure.
The report on the dollar-gas bill. for nearly
a month under consideration by the sub
committee of the Senate District Committee.
consisting of Senators Huntou, Faulkner,
tor Harris, chairman of the committee. 1t
was decided not to make it public at this
time.
Fifty copies were ordered printed. and
these viii be pa ed in the hands Of the men,
bers Of the committee.
The report is very full and carefully made
up. 1t presents all the facts in shape for
rapid COMPARISONS and deductions Recon-
mendations are made. but these are carefully
withheld from the public for the present.
A meeting oil 9tfe District COMMITTEES has
been called for Monday at p. m Both the
doiur-gas bill and the bill for the incorpora-
ton OF the Sands-Cowlan Gas Company will
come up, and it is expected the whoie matter
will be disposed OF.
In spite OF the fact that the appropriation
bills will have short time for their passage,
Senator Faulkner said last night he thought
a unanimous report in favor OF the dollar
gas bill would secure ifs passage unless
sharp opposition should develop In the Sem
ate.
The bill for a new company has appar-
emily not found much TO recommend il
among Senator'S and will probably not be
favorably reported. The chief objections to
it are that the new process is untried and
that Congress has complete control OF the
present company and can make the price oi
gas as low as it chooses.

Miss Alice Kyle. OF the Board of Missions
Made an Address.

The remote location of the church and the
big polYglot Temperance petition mass-meet-
ing at Convention Hall were causes that
materially decreased the attendance at the
Christian Endeayor mass-meeting last night
at Congress Street Methodist Church in the
West End.
Nevertheless the church was about half
filed when. after the opening song service,
President J.. A. Conner, jr., conducted the
devotional exercises
Then there was more hearty singing, and
after Secretary John B. Sleman. jr.. made the
usual announcements, President Conner in
trodueed as he speaker Of the evening Miss
Alice NJ. Kyle. Of New York, field secretary OF
the Woman's Board of Missions of the Con-
gregational Church in the United States.
Miss Kyle spoke at some length OF the work
which the board she represents is doing
| among the lower classes in this country. She
then pointed ont the ways in which En-
deavorers can aid in the support and exten-
sion of missions and in closing she congratu-
lated the young people upon their progressive
spirit, already exhibited along this line.
Gospel singing and the Mizpah benedietion
closed the meeting.

Boarding-hou are, in my opinion, in
furious TO young men and women of the
present day. You may use the greatest care
in selecting one, but it is not like home, and for
that reason YOU miss the liberty an sense OF
security you feel at home.
4 young man starting oat in life and being
compelled to take refuge in a boarding house
is exposed to many temptations. He is
thrown on his own resources for amusement.
Knowing that he will be surrounded by
strangers in the parlor, he seeks the theater
and other outside amusements. and acquires
the taste for going out nights which viii be
hard TO conquer. Considering the question
from every standpoint, it has a demoralizing
effect on young men and women. and all
who can should give the preferance to the
domestic hearth. w. p. NJ.

lude to President Clevelands sympathy with
w. c. L. U. work, and complimented Mrs

The significance of the occasion was the
subject OF Mrs Clara G. Hoffman, of Missouri
She addressed herself to the value and the
results to be expected from the polyglot pc.
tition.

Though the house may be all right, yet
from the association from day to day with
various kinds of people it naturally has its
injurious effects, especially on the young.
Many young man has gone TO prison from
his boarding-house, simply seeking the COM
fort that is never found in clearinghouse.
For a woman the boasding-house takes away
a certain portion of her womanhood, so that
she is rarely ever fit for the home, which is
sadly damaging, and often. from change Of
circumstances. will stoop TO a lower sphere
in life. simply because the boarding-house
has taken away her usefulness as n woman.
a lack of the family altar in q boarding
house is what gives our young n greater
scope to SO astray, thus sadly injurious.

Some Shoe Novelties,

Fine ooze leather is almost perfect for
slipper work. 1t is soft and pliaDle. it is
pleasant to the touch. and 1t can be found In
variety of colors appropriate to the use.
Braiding is the decoration most lsed. In
place of flat braid silk cord is selected, and
is ccuched over the pattern. The result is all
that could be desired, slipper at once chic
and tasteful. A pretty pair recently seen in
the window OF a leading retailer has the
foundation Of soft, gray ooze leather. The
work is all done with cord one shade darker.
and they are lined with silk Of the same
color. A theatrical shoe, which is attracting
much attention. has recently been designed
by manufacturer who makes a specially Of
catering to theatrical folk. 1t is called the
'digited SHOE" The principle is that OF
having separate compartments for each toe,
and, as may be supposed, the result is far
from artistic. AS a matter of fact, the shoe
is pedal abomination, and is hardly likely
to be pronounced success.-SEoe and

Lad Alta cked for Beer

Will KAY, lad OF eighteen years, who
halls from Baltimore, but has been employed
in Marshall's restaurant corner Sixth and
Louisiana avenue northwest, was found in
front OF No. 519 E street northwest early
last evening in an unconscious condition. He
was taken to nearby drug store. and from
there to tho Emergency Hospital. where
small wound on his forehead was dressed.
The boy could not give clear account of
how he received the wound. He had been
sent to deliver four bottles of beer, and when
he was found these were missing. 1t is pre-
sumed that some of the toughs who collect at
the mission noticed the beer and attacked the
lad and took it from him

LETTER NO. "a.

In reply to your query, "Does boarding
house life have an injurious effect on the
character OF young men and women?" I have
TO say that. having been a boarder in Wash
inGton for the past four years, and during
that period having lived at five different
boardlng-houses. l think ] am in a position
to Judge of the effect upon the young, being
myself q young man.
My experience teaches me it has decided
injurious effect upon young people. especially
young women. There being very few, if any,
restraints upon them they are left TO their
own voIitIon, and are often led astray by be-
ing associated with people of whom they
know nothing whatever. A boarding house
being the Mecca where all classes are brought
together. and the influence often eXerted by
people OF a low class upon those more fortu-
nate never being overcome. T. S. W.

You ask docs boardlng-house life have an
injurious effect on the character of young
women and men,"
That depends entirely upon the character
of tine young folks, for 40 they necessarily
flnd life in boarding house less restraining
than al their own home and mingle with n
more varied class of people. drawn together
by hazard and not by selection, it takes a
very firm character and great tect and judg-
ment to steer clear of unavoidable impedi-
ments and distractions.
Therefore, / would say. unless character
is well formed or naturally strong il would
be preferable for young people. both women
and men, TO live in the sheltered home of a
private family and thus lessen the possibility
OF an injurious effect on their character.
