MARSHAL sAzAiNe CONDEMNED
His tory Recalled of the Stirring Events in
a Notable Career.

On December 10, 1873, Francois
Achille Bazainc. the French general,
was condemned for surrcndcring in the
Franco-German war, though he had
long and honorably served his country,
says Spare Moments. Born April IS,
1911, he Joined the army in 1881, served
in Africa in 1882, was made lieutenant
in 1887 and obtained the Cross of the
Legion of Honor. He distinguished
himself in Algiers in 1889 and joined
the Mexican expedition in 1862, with
the rank of general of division, by
which the French cndcavored to assist
Maximilian in obtaining the throne of
that country, and Bazaine remained
there until 1867, when he effected his
retreat by Vera Cruz.
In 1864 he had been created marshal
of France. In the FrancO-German war
he commanded the Third army corps
and occupied Metz, where, after seven
weeks siege, he capitulated with an
army of one hundred and scventy-tive
thousand men, with fifty generals and
over six thousand officers. This sur
render so wounded the national vanity
of the French, though perseverance in
the defense was useless and would have
caused only starvation and suffering to
the besicged, that he was summoned
before the military commission of the
national assembly in August, 1871, was
tried by court-martial and found guilty
of treason and condemned to degrada-
ton and death. The sentence was,
however, committed to twenty years
seclusion in the island of Saint Mar
guerite, situated just off Cannes, on the
French Mediterranean coast.
Here he lived nine months with his
wife and children, after which she left,
and Intellectually interceded with Mar
shall MacMahon, the president of the
French republic, that, though her huS-
band was to continue in exile, he should
not be kept as a prisoner. On Monday,
August 10, 1874. a rope was found hang
ing from the parapet of the fortress
and by this Bazaine managed to escape.

JuSilte Of the Income Tax.

Professor f. r. a. Sci gman in Mare h Forum
From the legal point of view can
1t be seriously maintained that a
thousand dollar exemption from
the general property tax or a ten
thousand dollar exemption from
the inheritance is constitutional.
but that four thousand dollar ex-
emption from the income tax is
unconstitutional? If this pro-
vision in the income tax law is
unconstitutional, then we must
Overturn hundreds Of decisions in
our State tribunals, and completely
reverse the general tendency of
fiscal development throughout the
civilized world We must say that
uniformity means absolute uniform
ity, and declare unconstitutional
hundreds of existing laws which
aim merely at substantial uniformi
ty. There is, therefore, very little
prospect of the tax being declared
unconstitutional on that ground.
I his brings us to the question
whether the income tax is indeed
a just measure. Some people say it
is socialistiC, and that the state has
no right to Confscate earnings.
This objection scarcely deserves a
retutation. 1t entirely miscon-
ceives the relations of the individ-
ual to the state. The cry of
Socialism has always been the last
refuge of those who wish to clog
the weels of social progress or to
prevent the abolition of long-Con-
tlnued abuses The Factory Laws
were in there time dubbed socialis-
tic. Compulsory education and
the public post-office system were
called soCialiStiC. There is scarce.
ly a single tax which has ever
been iLtroduced, which has not
somewhere or other met with the
same obi election. This is true nc
less of the new inheritance tax in
some of our commonwealth and i'll
England than of the new property
tax i'll Holland and Prussia. But
the argument nowhere carried any
weight. In fact, if there is any
Socialism, it would be far more
obvious in the property tax, which
eXempts the earnings of the poor.
er classes than the income tax
which reaches earnings from other
sources than mere property. Yet
we have become so accustomed to
the property tax that the idea
Of its being socialistic seems ridi,
cul0us.

Cleaning COLOrei and Blatk silks

Place each piece of silk on a
smooth, clean table and dip a wad
of the material into the cleaning
fluid, which should consist of equal
parts of alcohol and luke. warm
water, writes Emma NJ. Hooper in
the March Ladies' Home Journal.
Cold coffee we'll strained, or water
i'll which an old black glaCe kid
glove has been boiled in IS also
good. This latter mixture is made
by putting a glove into a pint of
water and boiling it down to half
pint. Sponge the goods on what
will be the right side when made
up, as some silks can be turned after
being worn. Hang each piece on
line to drip; when nearly dry iron
with a moderately warm iron on
the wrong side, placing piece Of
soft black cambria or Crinoline be-
tween the iron and the goods, and
ironing each piece until it is per-
fectly dry. Then lay away the piec-
without folding. If the selvedge
edges seem to draw after the silk
is wet cut them here and there to
give a leeway. The ironing must
always be done on the wrong side
and over a second fabric, which
must be dark if the silk is dark.
Grease spots may be removed with
naphtha or by scraping French
chalk upon the spots, leaving it
over night and brushing it off in
the morning, repeating the process
if necessary. Remove all grease
spots before washing the silk. Ben
zine will remove paint but leaves
stain like water, which may be re-
moved with French chalk. Grease
may also be removed from silk by
rubbing a lump of wet magnesia
over the spot, allowing it to dry,
then brushing off the powder.

\ TRANSFER AGREEMENT
How Suburban Lines Gan Connect With the
City Street Railways.
1t VIII Probably He Attached to the
Metropolitan Railway Bin That Has
Passed the Senate.

An agreement has been reached between
a subcommittee of the House District COM
mittee and the representatives of the street
railways in the matter of transfers between
city and suburban lines. The agreement Is
to the effect that four tickets shall be sold
for 25 cents, one of which will entitfe the
holder to ride on the line selling 1t and
also good to the end of the route, within
the District upon the connecting l1ne
Thus, person could ride from point on
the Washington and Georgetown line to
the end Of the Tenleytown line for ticket
costing IA cents. Where person does
not buy a quarters worth of tickets
transfer to the suburban line may be ob-
tanned by the payment of 3 cents additional
to the original fare.
The District committee will probably ac-
cept this agreement 1t is said, and will
attach to 1t the Metropolitan railway bill
that has just passed the Senate. That bill
provides that the Metropolitan road shall
lay from the intersection of AZ and L
streets southwest along AZ street to P
street south a single track Of underground
electric road; thence east along street
to Water street; thence northwasterly
along Water street to l. street; thence east
along l. street to the intersection of AZ
and L streets. The bill also provides for
the Georgetown loop along P street. 36th
street, Prospect avenue, 35th street and o
street.
