PERIL OF GRADE CROSSINGS
This Subject to Be Publicly Dis
cussed by Board Of Trade.
Directors So Decided Yesterday-Fe-
ticent Concerning Result of Recent
Conference with Com missioners.

The Board of Trade will soon discuss
publicly the subject of steam railroads
and grade crossings with reference. or
course, TO the crossings in this city.
This interesting subject was chosen at
meeting of the directors OF the board which
was held yesterday afternoon at the rooms
of the board. In the absence OF President
b. II. Warner, Mr.. S. W. Woodward pre-
sided. The other directors present were
Thomas NJ. johnson, Frank Hume, o. j.
Staples, Henry Wise Garnet, IL. A. Willard,
II. +. Blount, C. Il. Church, c. G. Glover,
John u. Wight, secretary, G. j. Bell, isadore
.Saks, Bcriah wilkins and S. W. Smith.
The consideration of this important topic
Will be had on the evening OF the 10th OF
October at Wizards Hall. One OF the
directors was asked if the matter recently
discussed in relation to the Baltimore and
Ohio crossings had been theinspIrationpfthe
proposed discussion. He said that the
Baltimore and Ohio crossings would, or
course, he discussed, but he said further
that the discussion would be on general
lines probably and that all crossings as
affecting the public safety would be dis
cussed. 1t was inferred from the tenor
of this directors remarks that the board
would express itself by resolution on the
question of better equipment by railroads
a crossings where it willbe shown defective
equipment now exists.
general discussion of the subject OF
improved sewerage was also had AT the
last meeting of the directors a special COIN
mittee of which Mr.. s. W. Woodward is
chairman, was chosen to confer with the
Commissioners on this important matter.
and the committee had such conference.
The result OF that meeting was talked over
yesterday, but no action of either the di-
rcriors or committee was given out.
Before the meeting Mr. Woodward said
that the committee would present report
at some future time and after n further de-
liberation. Mr.. Woodward, however, said
that the Commissioners were In accord with
the committee on the advisability of all
possible improvements of the sewerage OF
the city, and promised to do all they could
in the direction onofimpruvement. of
Several of the committees Of the board
have nearly completed their annual re-
ports and two of these, at least. Will be
handed In early next week
The coming public meeting. owing to
the fact that the subject of grade crossings
has been ventilated recently by the cit-
zens of East Washington and The Times,
will doubtless be one OF very general i'm
portance. and the results will be awaited
| with interest. The papers have been fuil
| recently of accidents and averted accidents,
| so that at least there will be plenty OF food
for reflection and resolution.

with the highest and best business enter

Yet his estate is now in process of being
wound up at the lnSi anCe OF several inter

proceedings of an unpleasant nature against

very serious nature.

DUPLICATE MONEY ORDERS.

The order of the Postoffice Department,
which has been IN operatiOnsever months.
requiring that d period ofsixty days be per
mitted to eiapse before duplicate money
orders should be issued to replace originals
that had been lost, has become dead letter,
and the order will pass out of existence
without another being issued TO rescind it
Frequently, In the larger postcffices both
the orig ginal and duplicate would be paid by
the postmaster, the mistake occurring on
account ofstressof businessand carelessness
ofclerks. Thesixty day order wasintended
to allow the sixth auditor time to ascertain
what had become of the original order, or
whether it had ever been paid. with the idea
that this would prevent the payment of the

CIGAR FRAUDS.
z. r. CIute Arrested For Initiating
Popular Brands.

E. r. Clute who manufactures cigars
at 1926 Scott street, was arrested yester-
day for initiating popular brands of CT
CARS and selling them from boxes other
than those in which they were originally
packed. The fine for such offense may
be $50.
The internal revenue agents say that
such SwindleS on the manufacturer and
consumers of well-known brands are
very common, and that they intend to use
every effort to prevent these swindles.
1t was found that Clute and printer
named Schmirhorn had counterfeited the
brands of many brands of cigars, and that
inferior goods had been put in the boxes.
The arrest was made by Special Agent
Gilchrist, and he tells an interesting
story relative to the wholesale business
contemplated by the prisoners.

Taking Care OF CIothes.

It Is rot half as hard to care for one S
clothes as it is to get them in the first
instance. Yet. strangely enough. those
who have the fewest garments take
the least pains to preserve their fresh
ness
Rich women having French maids
have their gowns and bonnets looked
after with a jealous skill that women
who need such service scarcely dream
of.
1t is not wear that makes a drabbled
mass of your best gown in a couple
of months. 1t is lack of care when it
IS off your back. If you fold it up or
hang it. ten to one YOU do it badly.
Hang all your dress waists and
skirts. but suspend them on coat
hangers not on hooks or nails. The
way ShopkeeDers care for ready
made garments is an excellent object
lesson. y large supply of coat hangers
can be bought for a dollar. or if you
are out of the reach of the ready-made
article. manufacture them. Half a bar
rel hoop. with a loop of string in the
middle. makes a satisfactory substi-
tute. Hanging on serves for stuff or
heavy fabrics. not when they are of
thin goods. In that case garments are
apt TO become SIringy. Light materials
must be folded, sleeves and bows
stuffed out with tissue paper, and all
given plenty of room.
Skirt bags are a luxury. even a ne
cessity for handsome garments. They
are great square sacks of white cotton,
longer than the skirts. and into which
the skirt can be slipped without crush
ing. a sachet suspended in the center
imparts to the skirt a fragrance which
makes it as sweet and fresh as a
flower.
Skirts should not only be brushed
when taken off. but the silk lining

cloth. This should be done at once,
and the skirt then put away properly.
