HooLEY-HooLEY, wLY-wlLEx.
In Three Chapters--The Arrest. the Foot
Race, the Fall.

Nightwatchman Wiley is somewhat of
feet-footed man to get away from him,
even when he has the start and the
benefit of bad lights and muddy streets.
Last night about Z 80 he arrested
man named Hooley on First street and
escorted him in his usual Characterization
manner to the city Jail where he pur-
posed extending to him the hospitality
of the city. Hooley was supple of limb,
of graceful carriage, gaunt fanked and
wiry, just the kind of man his name
would indicate regular dancer of the
Hooley- -Hooley stripe. AS Wiley
reached his hand in his pocket for the
keys of the city, Hooley. with the spring
of cat, cleared the sidewalk, abandon
ing our simple republican platform, SO
to speak, and taking the Coxey plan in
stead, straight down the middle OF the
road. Wiley was after him in bound
and for a half dozen jumps, it was
pretty race. Our asphalt streets are in
fine condition for foot racing, but the
glare of the electric lamps blinded the
fleeing Hooley, and his nimble feet, or
one of them, caught on a piece of
projecting basalt, and as he pitched
heavily forward his hat feel off and bis
open-faced countenance plowed up the
mud for many yards. He was up al
most in a rebound, and again struck
out, scraping the dirt from his eyes as
he ran, and carelessly throwing it away.
His name was mud, though from the
time he fell, and not being able to see,
he ran in circle and the offending Hoo
ley- Hooley was soon IN the official
clutches of the willy Wiley.
When he was safely inside the jail,
and the lights were turned on, he was a
sight, sure. At first Wiley was not
quite certain whether he had arrested a
man or swiped back alley, but when
the chunk of mud opened it's mouth and
spoke, Wiley knew he hadn't arrested
Court street, and SO turned the keys on
him.
Wiley didn't get off so easily, either,
for he was without rubbers, and as he
marched Hoeley to Jail, that gentleman,
just to show he held no grudges, di-
vided what real estate he owned with
him, and Wiley had dirt enough to start
a ranch if he had some place to dump it.

GREETING IN FLOWERS.

In no city where the great gatherings of
the Society of Christian Endeavor has
taken place have they been made more
welcome than they will be in Washington
when their hosts invade the city next
July. Not only. will banners float and
music sound and hearty greetings be
proffered. but the very soil is going to
show forth and exhale welcome. Chris
tian Endeavor badges and designs will be
laid out in floral figures in the different
parks and reservations and Will speak more
eloquently than words the pleasure it gives
Washington to be the Endeavorers' en-
tertainer.
There can hardly be too much OF this
sort of outward show to testify the pleas
ure the people of the National Capital
experience even in the prospect of having
in their midst a half hundred thousand
whose aim is to spread wholesome truth,
promote moral living and make better
citizens. Christian citizenship, as it is
understood and taught by the Endeavorers,
embraces all the essentials of a mans
conduct toward the state and his fellow
men, and the assertion of the doctrine that
only he is a good citizen who conscien-
tiously does his duty TO both and to him.
self cannot be made too strongly Or too
persistently.
The general sentiment of the people OF
Washington is heartily in sympathy with
the objects Of the society, and it is pleasant
to contemplate, therefore, that the work
Of the Endeavorers at the impending con.
vention will be carried forward with all
the help and assistance our people car
render. Their stay here Will be made as
profitable as hospitality and friendliness
in every respect can make it, and when
the moment of parting arrives there will
be but one wish among all the Endeav.
orers, and that is that it might be prac-
ticable to hold every convention in Wash
ington.

THE CASE OF MRS. MAVERICK

The case of Mrs. Florence Iybrick, now
imprisoned ia England TOT the alleged murder
Of her husband, is again before the country.
Americans have an interest in the case, not
merely from the fact that Mrs. Maybrck
was born in this country, but from q wide
spread opinion that the conviction and
sentence to life Imprisonment of Mrs. May
brick were not Justified by the facts
brought out at the trial.
Efforts for modification OF the sentence,
if not its reversal, have been often made
and without avail, but there is reason for
hope in the present interest of Congress in
the case, that due interest will be aroused
or the Atlantic.
The latest efforts have been made by the
Countess Rogue, Mrs. Maybrick's mother,
and Mr.. II. a. Dodge of Hamilton, Mass.
The letters OF these interested persons are
q part OF the record in the office of the Sec
retary OF State, all OF the correspondence IN
which, presumably, was seut to the House
yesterday i'll response to Il request for the
same TO President Cleveland.
The facts contained in this correspond
ence seem to warrant the belief that
new phase could be put an the situation
if properly presented to the English au-
thorities. 1t appears from the records that
Secretary 0lney acted promptly with all
the facts and power at his command. He
has directed Ambassador Bayard three
times since November, 1895 to eDdeaVor
to secure re-eXamination of the case,
having reason to believe that a rehearing
could be had.
A singular Circumstance in the CORE
spondence now before Congress is that
Ambassador Bayard replies to Secretary
Olney are wanting, nor has there been
given any sign to indicate whether he paid
any attention to the positive directions
OF the Secretary Of State. Whether the
ambassadors views. with or without con-
sultation with the English attorney gen.
eral, were favorable or adverse to Mrs.
Maybrick there does not appear to be any
reason why they did not accompany the
rest Of the budget. 1t would be charity
to assume that Mr.. Bayard's replies if
he made any have inadvertently been
| omitted from the correspondence"
1t is gratifying to know, ho wevar, that
to secure a re-examination of the case.
The morning times., 1896-05-01
MUNICIPAL WORK.

Tie proposition of the Commissioners to
Congress that authority and money be
granted for acquiring control of all ex-
listing and prospective machinery for COL
lecting and disposing of garbage aud street
refuse, OF street sweeping and cleaning
and all similar municipal work, cannot
be ton strongly commended to he favorable
consideration OF the lawmaking power.
There is, in fact, very little work to be
done for or under the direction of
municipality that cannot be done by it,.
As the Commissioners themselves state,
the construction of sewers, side walks, and
some kinds of pavements, presumably those
not covered by patents, can and ought to
be done by tile city's own labor forces, and
not by contract. They even suggest the
construction of public buildings, such as
school and engine houses, for instance, by
day labor, instead OF under contract, as
likely to give better satisfaction.
All these recommendations are in the
line OF good public policy. There is
hardly a doubt that better and more eco
nomiCal work would be the result, if they
are followed out, and a much larger
number Of workingmen resident in the
District would be assured of employment.
As the matter now stands the hands of the
Commissioners are tied by the laws, which
require them to advertise in other cities
for bids on all work that exceeds q certain
sum. Thus they are compelled To give
non-residents the opportunity to do work
which by every equitable consideration
should go to none other than those WHO
live in the District, and whose earnings
would be expended for the support OF their
families here. Many a home that is now
not infrequentIy dependent upon the kind
offices of the charitable people would be
kept up by the earnings OF the head of the
family, if all the work at present done
by contract should be performed by day
labor under control and direction of the
municipal authorities.
The experience Of nearly all other large
cities supports the suggestions of the
Commissioners. In the interest of econ
omy and good work and as matter of
justice, not only 10 the workingnIen but
to the business men and people OF the
District municipal work ought to be done
under municipal authority and by people
who have a permanent interest in the city.
