GOOD DEEDS PROMPTLY DONE.

While the claims of the survivors Of the
Ford's Theater disaster are going the
dneary rounds Of Congressional investi-
CATION ana pTocrastination and the claim
ants have been osciilatiBg for two years
between hope and doubt. il is pleasant to
read the report Of the citizens relief com
mittee. organized Immediately after the
occurrence OF that catastrophe. That re-
port shows that oyeIs $4,000 was col
Iected here in the District and, with the
exception Of less than 81 600 for neces-
saTy expenses OF the committee, promptly
disbursed among those whose necessities
gave them a claim upon it.
There is one part of the committees re-
port which can be referred to with spe-
cial pride. and may be profitably and
prayerrully studied by Members OF Con
Eress who are always ready 10 make
cheap capital for home consumption by
protesting against their people being taxed
for the benefit Of the people OF the Dis
trict Of Columbia. The part of the report
referred to says:
MANY CT the victims OF the theater
disaster were from other States or Ter
ritories, and here but temporarily, yet in
no single instance did we hear it said that
these facts should make any difference in
the movement for relief. The sum was as
freely paid as though made for our own
households. and, again, the generous deed
testiiicS 10 the high character for human
ity Of tie people OF this city and District"
The statement contained in this para
graph attests the catholicity Of our peoples
charity. Shortly before the FOrd's Thea
ter affair they had sent over $4,000 10
aid the sufferers at JohDstoWn They
asked not VITO or where those were that

had TO be aided was enough, and aid was
promptly furnished in both instances. They
act upon the old maxim that twice gives
that quickly gives and that for true

TIE ENGLISH UPHEAvAL

The overthrow and resignation of Lord
Rosehery aud his coIlcag CUES, without having
accomplished any of the reform measures
so anxiously expected, has been ex
tremely sappouiiug TO the Liberal ele-
ment iu England The Liberal party in
Parliament however, has never been com

auce Of tie Irish vote, which was not to
be depended upon, could not hope TO pass
any important measure even if the House
Of Lords did tot stand in the way.
II the hopes Of the Liberal party are

NAUTICAL SCHOOLS.

The Times is heartily in sympathy with
the plan of DR.. A IL Wilmer, prominent
member of the board OF school trustees,
for the introduction of system of nautical
instruction for Washington boys in con-
nection with the public schools.
The doctors arguments in advocacy of
such a system Were fully outlined in our
issue of yesterday, and they should at
once bring conviction to all who wish to
See the American navy and merchant ma
rine manned by American sailors.
In 1890, as result OF resolution offered
by Dr. Wilmer in the school board, the
District Commissioners prevailed OH the
Senate Subcommittee on District Appro-
priations 10 recommend that $4,000 be
appropriated for this purpose. The mat
ter never came 10 a vote, however, and
nothing has since been done except the en-
listing OF a host of friendly advocates.
DR.. Wilmer VIII renew bis efforts i'll the
near future, and it is hoped and believed
he VIII have the support of the Commits
sioners and many prominent officials OF
the Navy Department.
An act passed in 1874 encouraged such a
system of education, and its advantages We're
availed OF by several cities OF proper loca-
ton. There are numerous and obvious
reasons for the application Of its benefits TO
Washington. Its good results would re-
ceive the attention of the nation at large, and
these results would be achieved under the
immediate eye of the Navy Department.
1t is not pleasant thing TO contemplate
that our navy is almost totally dependent on
foreign skill In time of danger we could
not, therefore, look for that patriotic de
votion 10 the Stars and Stripes that can
come only from those welded TO the institu-
tions OF the republic.
We have here a class of boys ready TO en-
Enthusiastically adopt the profession Of sea
manship. all the more so if they understood
that excellence in skill would bring the
reward OF promotion and commensurate
pay. The professions and the trades are
overcrowded. and this ne W avenue of employ
ment would be welcome to many, and would
relieve the strain on the breadwinners.
The Times Will do all it can to aid in the
establishment Of these nautical schools, and

streets to and from the central part OF the
city is slow and hazardous, and there
seems to be no remedy but an absolute
removal of the tracks.
Sooner or later public sentiment will
demand this change. Congress may pro-
crastinate and delay action for several
years longer at the instigatio8 of the rail-
roads, but the time win come when the
pressure will be so strong that Union
depot must be the result. Therefore the
schemes and plans submitted now by com
petent engineers viii be useful to point ont
the various objections and recommends
tions that will be the subject OF dis
cussion when the question comes before
Congress for final action. And possibly
the scheme referred to this morning may
furnish the basis OF a plan for our new
union depot.

ALEXANDRIA HAPPENINGS

Every immoral house on Lee and Princess
streets, the Division" of Alexandria, was
raided yesterday M morning by Officers
Beach and FERGUSON, and all the Keepers are
now locked up i'll the police station with
a charge OF selling liquor without
license, and on Sunday, entered against
their names.
AT the last meeting of the new council
OF the Junior Order of United American
Mechanics, the name James T. Jackson,
Council" was adopted as that of the new
organization. James T. Jackson, after
whom the council is named was the pro-
prietor of the Marshall House in this city,
and from its top at the outbreak of the
war unfurled the first Confederate flag
used in the south.
In trying To- prevent Col Ellsworth, Of the
New York ZoUaves, from taking the flag
down, Jackson killed him and was himself
killed in turn by Sergeant Brownell, and his
squad. Since the meeting OF the council,
the members have been discussing the
matter, and, as Mr.. o. B. Hopkins, the
grand councillor of the state, has entered
protest against naming a council OF a
patriotic order after man, who refused
to recognize the United states flag, it is
more than probable that at the meeting
of the council to be held on Wednesday
night next, the name will be changed, and
it is thought that it will be called "Corse
Council" after Gen NJ. d. Corse, who
thoughhe was a gallant Confederate soldier,
was also a veteran of the Mexican war.
The officers of the new council will be
elected and installed on the night of
July Sd next.

synopsis Of an interesting plan to erect a

Just as wei as do the people living in the
heart OF tie city. Each suburb should have
facilities equal to those which are now max
ing the people of Mount Pleasant feel con

dents of those localities ought to be able to
retire to their rest at night with the feeling
that if fire should break out there would be
sufficient apparatus at hand to hold the
namesin ncheckuntn tbemored redistantengines,
reels, and trucks could reach the scene

1t might even be practicable to let such
suburban fire department manage lesser
oonnagrapOn without calling upon the city
department proper, thus leaving the latter
within IFS customary radius OF action if its
services should there be needed. The in
stitution of these minor departments is die
tated alike by conside rations OF equity and

Editor Times: The extracts which you
printed this morning from my letter about
establishing an equitable loan associa-
ton are SO disconnected as to lose most
of their meaning. l ask leave, therefore,
to say that / thought no dividend need
be declared on capital stock Of the asso-
citation, but IL one were determined upon
it should not be over per cent. 1 sug-
gested further that 6 or 8 per cent of
the principal of loans be repaid every
month, so as to free the poor from the
temptation to run heavily into debt, which
they would have if monthly payments
were too light, and the redemption Of
the principal were postponed to a distant
or indefinite future.

the emblems OF the order of the Native
Sons OF the Golden West. There are i'm
mense and gorgeous arches, beautiful
banners and streamers and thousands of
electric lamps to shed their brilliancy on
next Monday night. Conservative esti-
mates place the number of visitors ex-
pccted in Sacramento next week at 80, 600
and the city will, of course, bs taxed to
its utmost to accommodate them. There
are numerous committees, however, who
are endeavoring to provide places for all
comers. Hundreds of applications for
rooms are coming in daily. The Native
Sons claim that they will have accommo-
