CoNGREGATIoNALI5Ts PROSPER.

The report of the First Ecclesiastical society shows a total amount received during the past year for ordinary church expenses of $2l35 46 and contributions and subscriptions toward the church debt of $329.20. During the past four years the debt has been reduced at the average rate of $513 46 per year. The prospects are good for the total payment of the church indebtedness the coming year. Pastor and people have cause to congrat- ulate themselves for their success in the past and prospects in the future. In these times of business depression con- paratiYely few country churches can show so satisfactory a financial standing.

Tammany dies hard. The tiger was pref
ty badly stunned last November but that he
is still alive is evident to those who have
wagged his tail last week, but unless the
signs are all wrong that particular member
will be paralyzed for some time to come.
The last meeting of the old political board
of police commissioners took place Friday
ard at that session, in spite of the opposi-
ton of the one reform commissioner up to
that time appointed. the Tammany-Platt
combination placed upon the retired roll an
inspector of police whose reputation was
considerably bedaubed by revelat lions made
before the Lexow investigation committee.
There was no good reason why that parti-
cular inspector should be given a pension
of 81, 700 a year. for he is only about forty
eight years of age and, if ultimately proven
Innocent, should be able to render good
deal of valuable service. But the Croker
Platt commission was evidently of the
opinion that the new board of commission
ers might. by Diminishing this Inspector,
shut off the pension. So disregarding en-
tirely the protests of the minority member,
the spoilsmen retired their protege and
snapped their fingers at decent public opin-
ion. 1t is expected that the new board will
organize today; will open up an era of
responsibility in New York's police depart
ment, will put a sudden stop to the hereto
fore common practice of making that i'm
portant branch of municipal government
subservient to the needs and demands of
thievish politicians.

foolish men with money in this region was
amply sufficient to tempt the tempters, so
the eXiled horde sought and found dwelling

Although their proceedings have been con-

solid ground on which to base public COM
plant If the gambling at the places Men
toned was INDUCED in only by profession
ais but as matter of fact professionals
are consistently on one side of the game;
the majority of the losers are men who

crowd across the river can only be con-
Jectured. how much money which should

OF Trade can do nothing directly to bring
about better state of affairs In Alex

The Commissioners, the Board of Trade
the Central Relief Committee and the AS
scciated Charities are cooperating to give
the so-called Detroit plan a fair test in
Washington.
In Detroit last summer i30 acres of land
were cultivated by 9i5 persons; potatoes,
turnips. beans. squashes. pumpkins. cucum-
bers. cabbages, green corn. beets, etc. were
raised; the land used was in many cases
an abandoned truck garden very poor
soil. there was unusual drought during
the greater portion of the summer and in
every case the land was covered with a
thick sod or with weeds when plowed in
the month of June notwithstanding the
lateness of the season and the poorness of
the soil. an expenditure of $500, part of
winch Is represented by plows. harrows.
etc, still on hand melted to the cultiva-
tors food to the value of from $1,000 to
s1iOGO"
Like the municipal woodward or stone
pile the urban truck farm Is tramp re-
pellant. Not only has it no attractions for
the idle and worthless class, but it's ulti-
mate tendency is to relieve the congested
dependent population of cities by teaching
through practical object lesson the hon
est and independent livelihood to be
wrested from the soil. The City Poor Com
missioners of Detroit state that nearly a
hundred families who had cultivated lots
of our committee and had heretofore been
occasional objects of charity. had obtained
parcels of ground small farms near the
city to work on shares in the raising of
potatoes, beans. etc. some having moved
some distance for that purpose
To whatever extent, small or great. the
Detroit plan is put in operation in Wash
fngton a corresponding benefit will result
to the community. By the exact amount
of the net products and profits the cult
vators will add to their means of support
without loss of self-respect, and the drain
upon charitable Washington next winter
will be lesSened; and to the extent to which
they have been cultivated the loaned lots
will lie improved as lawns in connection
with future building sites. Everybody will
thus enjoy share in this crop.
There is enough money on hand or in
easy reach to meet all the expenses liable
to be incurred In conducting this expert
ment. The needs are land in as large
tracts as possible and volunteer farmers.
1t is expected that the land will be plowed
and narrowed for the latter and seed fur
nished.
Let every needy man in the city who de-
sires to add to lis means of livelihood and
family support by cultivating a plot of
land promptly notify the joint committed!
Let every man of means and benefcent
instincts who owns or controls an urban
or suburban tract of land in the District
and Is willing to loan 1t to the community
for cultivation this summer, speedily notify
the joint committed
