A great reduction is shown in the
cost of maintaining the public high
ways this year. The total expenditures
will not exceed 81, 900 for the year and
this amount is less than one-haf of
what was spent on roads the year pre-

year will show still further decrease,

commissioners to make each district
almost self-sustaining by requiring the

THE AMATEUR PLAY ACTORS.

Their Appearance.


The Amateur Dramatic society has
got along nicely with the preparation
for the presentation of the play EILEEN

ing it at Evans opera house December

the East, and the actors and actresses
are thoroughly acquainted with their
parts. Manager g. S. Powers, who has
been training the company, has drilled
them in a peasant dance. which is one
of the pleasing features promised for
that evening.
The scene of the drama Is laid in IRE
land, and ii is very pretty and excit-
ing story. through which runs a strain
of comedy, but not to subordinate at
all the heavy and tragical scenes in
which the hero, heroine and villain
have some hard work. The proceeds
of the evening will be used for chari-
table purposes.

Some of the ladies made pretty little

were all well supplied and the occa-

RIGHTS OF CHILDREN.

While Judge Kimball was careful yes
lars upon Patrick Sheehy for whipping un-
mercifully his boy, Jimmy sheehy, to put
himself upon record as recognizing the di-
vine right OF parents to apply the rod
judciously TO their unruly children, he
really established remarkable and i'm
portant precedent which may have i'm
measurable effect on the character OF the
future man and the new woman.
The boy is the father of the man, the
girl the mother Of the woman, to para
phrase an old aging, which may be car
ried still further by recognition of the plain
Tact that both'ar the parents of the COM
munity and OF society at large. The effect
subject for dispute. Spare the rod and
spoil the Child is a severe adage that
was born even before Solomon's time,
but the higher the civilization the more
the rod falls under condemnation.
Earliest infancy protests against bod
lily assault, Just as persons of more mature
age cannot offer a grosser insult to one
another than to give slap or blow or a
kick. The human mind is never too in
fantile to resent the humiliation of such
treatment. In New York, a day or two
ago. a boy tempted to commit suicide by
shooting himself because his father whipped
him. Young Sheehy, not SO sensitive and
more belligerent, had his father arrested,
and Judge Kimball justified the arrest by
imposing a fine. But no matter what form
resentment MAJ take it is there all thesam
and it rankles and stings and secretly in
cites to rebellion and vengeance.
The braver, the more manly or woman
ly, the boy or the girl, the deeper the hu-
initiation spenetrates, and 1t may well be
asked by every father and mother whether
even the application of the hand or the
slipper in the traditional way is of the least
virtue as a corrective. One day. when
mental and moral and social develop
ment have reached higher plane, society
will dictate methods of changing the bent
of uDruly children, who, after all, receive
their impulses through the infallible but
complex laws of heredity. 1t might be
well. occasionally, for fathers to flagellate
themselves for transmitting to their chill
dren dispositions TO be mischievous and
rebellious.

Senator Brice for that high and trusty
position, and has probably ere this in.
structed the fiery haired Senator to arrange
his bank account to secure the election
In its elaboration of the reasons why
Senator Brice is the logical Democratic
candidate for Presidentp the Star Incl
denially mentions the '1arge hospitality"
he dispenses at Washington and Saratoga,
and were it not true that the ''Star is
always right" this statement might be cues
toned, inasmuch as the Senator's family
is spending the summer at Newport in
stead of Saratoga.

country and made him the hero Of a pro-
spectye Presidential campaign. But Of
all the boOmlets his pen has created, not
one of them has gore farther than the

his prolific imagination is worthy of no.

COMING OF TALMAGE.

There is fair prospect that DR.. T. De-
Witt Talmage will change his residence
from Brooklyn to Washington and become
coworker of the venerable DR.. Sun
derland as pastor OF the First Presbyterian
Church. Although Washington enjoys the
presence of many eminent clergymen, at
tracted here by the beauty of the city and
the high intelligence of the membership
os their churches, the coming of SO notable
a pulpit orator as Talmage will be looked
upon as a more than usually important
event in the church history of this city.
The fact that DR.. Talmage even con-
siders favorably the Invitation to come
to Washington shows the tendency OF per-
sons of note in the world Of art, letters and
religious teaching to concentrate at the
National Capital A few years ago New
York was the Mecca and the abiding place
of masters and students in all fields OF
philosophy, theology and aesthetics. Bos
ton ceased to be the Athens of America.

the crowding, bustling metropolis.

woN WITHOUT STRIKING.

Employees of the Metropolitan Street Rail-
road Company are to be congratulated
because they have gained more human
izing workday than before, and also be-
cause of their temperate manner of con-
Quoting the controversy with their en-
ploycrs. To gain one more hour daily
for recreation and self-improvement is a
gain whose value cannot be estimated.
To gain by moral suasion, makes it all the
more valuable.
Eleven hours, however. is yet too long a
period for continuous hard labor, " itiout

and expected that the management will
accede to the future request with the same
wisdom which governed their action of
yesterday, and that the employees Will pro-

which have marked their efforts during

Of intelligence is higher than any other

that workingmen will accomplish more

The revival OF the old Olympic "Por-
ter's Knot" made famous by the great
little Robson under its original title OF
LES Crochcts du Pere Martini at the
Theater de la Republique, in Paris. has
suggested that NJ. Cormon. one of the two
authors OF this pathetic little piece, who
is still alive and cigity-scven years of age.
is the oldest living dramatic author.
But there is one French dramatist even
older than Cannon. Earnest Legouve was
born in 1907. which makes him eighty
eight. NJ Cormon is only one month older
than Adolphc d'Eunery, his collaboration
in that excellent drama, THE Two

authorship seems to tend toward longev

A REDUCTION NECESSARY.

The Times refused to assist in circulating
the report that there would be general
street railway strike because it had faith
in the good judgment OF those directly CON-
cerned and believed such calamity would
be averted. Last nights truce between
President Phillips and his employees demon
strates the correctness of this conclusion,
and also proves that those interested in
attempting to discredit the Protective
Street Railway Union have utterly failed
in their efforts.
The principal grievance of the Metro
poiitan employees, that they are required
TO work too long hours, is just, and entities
them to redress But the well-known OBJ
Itinacy of President phillips prohibits tho
possibility of such relief coming from him
unless public sentiment makes the demand.
As the welfare, health and future OF the
employees depends ON their better treat
ment, there should be NO hesitaDcy in
making the subject q cause for popular
complaint.
Since the introduction Of rapid transit
and the displacement of horse cars the re-
ceipts of the Metropolitan company have
nearly doubled. This increase OF business
imposes more work on the employees and
is the source OF 4 greater strain on their
powers OF endurance. Eleven hours a
day attending to the duties of rapid tran
sit street train is more than human nature
can stand and the hours of work should be
shortened to protect the employees from
the necessity OF und ergoing such long
fatigue. Tie Washington and George
town cable lines found 1t necessary to
adopt this humane means of retaining ar
efficient and reliable force, and President
Phillips should also be made TO look at
the question in precisely the same light.
