4 Movement With Hope in 1t.

To the Ed tor Of The Evening Star:
To a ''looker-on in Venice it would ap-
pear that the Law and Order League of
Prof. Geo. w. Cook, which is organized to
train the young colcred people to seek not
only legitimate occupations, but legitimate
diversiops-in short, 10 exhibit some of the
pleasures of virtue-may be expected to
have more ethical effect ON the community
than the wrenching of men and women
out of their homes for three months of dis
graceful Servitude, under the ''Edmunds
act" Ninety days OF the workhouse or
Jail 70 Inspiration to chastity-quite the
contrary. In fact it is worse than folly to
say Thou shalt not to the idle and un-
disciplined. Begin with the young; and
give to Prof. Cook all possible aid and ap-
probation. RUTH q. ID. HAVENS

Charles Austin Bates In Printers Ink.
If there's anything that gives a paper
stale and. uninteresting appearance it is a
great array of standing advertisements.
People nowadays are interested in ad-
vertisements, and they care to read the
paper whose advertising columns give evil
dence of the most life and enterprise. ! be-
Eeve that the Washington Star owes a
great deal Of it's hold on its readers to the
fact that it's advertising columns are kept
bright and fresh and readable. l don't
know of paper in the United States which
has so liberal local advertising patronage.
don't think this is because the merchants
of Washington are any more enterprising
than the merchants of other places. 1
think the condition is due to the efforts OF
The Star in having the advertisements
changed and taken care of.
1t is the custom of a great many mer-
chants throughout the country to subscribe
for some Philadelphia paper for the pur-
pose of getting points from the advertising.
These same merchants, and many others,
would find the money well invested should
they subscribe for The Washington Star for
the same purpose.

Ex-Speaker Reed has retained an old
fashioned method of reminding himself
OF certain things to be done during the
day. 1t Is not uncommon to see him en-
ter the house Of representatives with a
string tied around his little finger. A sto-
ry is told of Mr.. Reed and his peculiar
habit. A little child of his family had
playfully attached string to the ex- peak-
er's finger, as she had often seen him do
in the morning. This was done by the
little one so quietly that it was unnoticed
at the time Mr.. Reed got to the capitol,
and when he took his seat he saw the
string. Then he relapsed into brown
study. He couldn't think what it had been
put there for. For the first time In his
life he thought he was getting absent
minded and was fearful lest he should
leave some important duty undone. The
little mischief maker watched for him in
the evening and asked him if he had at
tended to it.
"Have I attended to WHAT" he inauir-
ed.
"Oh, tied the string on so you would
think to bring me box of candy" said
the child, and then the cloud was lifted
from the mind of Mr.. Reed. It is need
less to say the little girl got the candy

"Commodore," said the man, 'there is

OUR INCOMPATIBLE ICE CREAM.
Europeans Strive TO Initiate 1t, but Their
Efforts Have Been Vain.

Europeans Strive TO Initiate It, but Their
Efforts Have been Vain.
Ice cream is prominently an Ameri-
can specially. All the Atlantic passion
ger steamers plying between this port
and Europe take aboard in New York a
sufficient supply Of ice cream for the
voyage back to New York as well as for
the outward journey, despite the fact
that the cost Of the article is greater
here than abroad, and that it is expen
sive stuff to keep. The round trip occu-
pies at least three weeks, and the cream
has to last that period, one week of
which the ship is tied up in dock, with
the cream eating mp ice in the refriger-
ator at prodigious rate. When the au-
tumn rush homeward sets in and the
steamers are crowded to the limit, the
amount of ice cream thus carried from
this port and kept at least two weeks for
use on the return voyage is big item
in the provision account. Many kinds of
provisions and supplies are cheaper in
Europe than here, and of these the
steamers lay in double stock mt the Eu-
ropean ports. Ice cream, too, is cheaper
in Europe, but it has the fatal disad-
vantage that it is not ice cream as the
American regards the article.
Ice has come to be less of a novelty
ON the table in Europe in recent years,
mainly, doubtless, because of the insist
ence of the thousands OF Americans who
make Europe their summer playground.
Ice cream, too. You can get in most OF
the big cities, even in England. But 1t
usually lacks the main, indefnable quail
tiles that make it so attractive at home.
Europeans may talk about the inimitable
bouquet of their wines, but the bouquet
of American ice cream is beyond them.
This is not matter Of natural advan-
tages and facilities, as is claimed for the
wine and other things, for Switzerland
is full of ice topped mountains, and hei
valleys are filed with cows
A varied and recent experience with
the ice creams Of Europe induces the
conclusion that only the sorbetto" ont
gets on the Piazza of st. Marks il
Venice approaches the delicious perfec
ton Of the ordinary every day ice cream
of America. Perhaps this is because the
| Venetians themselves eat ice cream
whereas in most other European citiei
it is regarded as an outlandish concoc
ton, prepared only for the peculiar pal
ate of the stranger. 1t is a far cry and I
strange one, from st. Marks to Madison
square, but the delighted exclamation O
a group of American girls, ordering ic'
cream there as they had done all tn,
way down from London, "Ah, this il
something likel" covered the distanc,
in no time. New York Sun

Tea drinking among men has all at once
excited discussion. But 1t does not ap-
pear to be known, says a contemporary
that nearly all men Of literary habits who
exhaust nerve force take to tea drinking.
Edwin Booth used to have pot of tea
simmering in his stage dressing room.
Preachers, orators and lawyers find cup
Of strong tea the gentlest and most harm
less of brain bracers, and It has no reac-
tion. The reason why young men affect
to despise tea drinking Is that they asso-
ciate 1t with declining power and old wo-
men. But the truth Is that tea, II of a
pure kind and properly drawn, is about as
innocuous and pleasant stimulant as a
young man can resort TO after long wor-
ry or drain Of emotional or intellectual
force. II 1t could be made TO take the place
OF champagne and absinthe, the coming
race would be better Off.-Detroit Free

ADRIAN DIACoNU of Hungary
claims to have made a remarkable
discovery. According to telegram
from Vienna he has found in the
remains of the old Roman camp OF
Bersovia at Bogesau, near Temesvar
what he and certain learned men
of Bucharest regard as irrefutable
evidence that the centurions OF the
Fourth Legion, who were stationed
there at some time during the sec
ond century, were acquainted with
movable types. This discovery, if
verified, will throw back the origin
of the art of printing nearly thir-
teen centuries. 1t is already
known that the Romans had stamps
with which to impress inscriptions
but there had been no trace Of the
use of movable types.

THE Trolley newspaper consid-
erately says of the proposed appro-
priation of Thomas Square by the
snap syndicate: IF this could be
avoided, it would undoubtedly be
better" Well, it simply must be
avoided and it will be avoided. Of
the Victoria men whose names are
being used in the scheming, the
same authority remarks: They
are wealthy business men, occupy
ing prominent and responsible po-
sitious." This same description
fitted Jay Gould, Willard, Sidney
Dillon and Stanford, and it fits
Huntington and all the wreckers
and grabbers and pirates who
coddle and then capture commnni-
ties.
The combines newspaper is so
willing with answers that it might
tell whether the trolley poles are
to be in the center of Hotel
street and Merchant street or
on the sides of these broad thor
oughfares. 1t might also explain
what the Minister of the Interior is
going to do about it when the SNAP
franchise outfit tells him it knows
more about electric railways than
he does.
The schemers are pretty bold and
pretty loud. They think they have
found a 'jay town" But they are
sadly mistaken. The halfcentury
blanket charter ziss doomed. The
plot has been exposed and the plot
tiers had best either withdraw en-
tirely with their ridiculous propo-
sitions or come from cover and talk
business. If they continue along
their established lines, they will
next be offering the Government a
franchise for its own conduct, con-
dilioned on a bond.
