INTEREST OF HEALTH,
Important Cases to he Tried Before
Judge Kimball.

Judge kimball.
Health Officer Woodward is looking for.
ward with considerable interest to the man.
ner in which Judge kimball holds a case
brought under the health ordinances The
case will be tried Wednesday. and upon the
courts decision hinges the right of the
health officer to compel the substitution of
running closets for the old-style box
privies. For a long time Health Officer
Woodward has been making an effort to
get rid of all the old-style privies In Sec
tons where water and sewer connections
are possible, and only this year he sue
ceeded in getting Congress to enact a law
to this effect
The law also defines the manner in which
cases must be brought under the law
Under the law the department arranged
notices to be served on owners, and when
cases were taken in court the law. so far
as it related to drainage, was upheld, and
now the question Of compelling the owner
to replace the privy with a running closet
is to be determined
A case brought a few days ago was dis
missed because of an alleged defective no.
tice. In that case the property was de.
scribed by the house number while the
new notices give the number of lot, square
and house.
Should the court sustain the prosecution
it will mean that in most sections of the
city the box privy must go. In converse
ton with a Star reporter today Dr. Wood
ward said 1t was the intention of the
trainers of the law that it should force out
box privies where there were water and
sewer connections, and he confidently ex-
poets the court will so hold If, however,
the court should decide that the law does
not go far an effort to have another and
more effective law passed will be made
Last year there We're 11.565 complaints CON
corning box privies made to the health
office, more than one-half of all the
nuisances reported, and unless something
is soon accomplished in the law the health
officer will, ASK that two inspectors be ap-
pointed for Just this work

Throwing Glass in Streets.

said Judge kimball in the Police Court to-
day, when Baresin Mazzein. an Italian
fruit vender. was arraigned for throwing
glass in the street at 10th and X streets.
1T is dangerous to horses and particularly
so to bicycle tires and causes the expendi-
ture of hundreds of dollars each year by
our citizens for repairs. Hereafter l shall
be very severe in dealing with this class of
OFFENDERS
Through an interpreter, Mazzein claimed
ignorance OF the law, his plea causing The
court to remark that it would be impossible
to translate the laws of the District into
all the known languages for the benefit of
foreigners Common sense, he added, should
prevent people from doing such thing
In view of the circumstances, Mazzein
escaped with a fine of s.

A Discredited Oracle.
he Editor Of The Evening Star:

10 the Editor O1 Inc Evening Star:
While a morning daily is showing how
close Mr.. Bryan came to election, 1t Is also
interesting to examine the forecast of a
great prophet. and to see how far from be-
ing correct the predictions were.
Among the states reasonably sure fol
Bryan the paper in question gave North
and South Dakota, Wyoming and Indiana.
Tine list of doubtful states were Illinois
which went 10000 the other way: Oregon
5000, Mckinley: California 5000 McKin.
ley): Maryland (S0OO0, Mckinley; Della
ware 4, 500. Mckinley); West Virginia QO,-
U10 Mchinley); Minnesota 10000, McKin-
ley); Michigan 10000, Mckinley: Wiscon-
sin Go.OO0, Mckinley; Iowa 100000, Nc
Kinley).
Indiana was given as sure thing to Mr.
Bryan about 10000 votes out of the way
and the largest plurality ever given at any
election since 1872, Our Washington Cas-
sandra epitomizes that II Bryan could have
carried Kentucky and West Virginia he
would have won. If he had carried those
two states Mr. Mckinley would still have
had 25S Again. that If he had carried Illi-
Lois or Michigan and Maryland he would
have been elected. The vote shows that
MIR. Bryan could have carried all three,
and yet left Mr.. Mckinley 23O votes. If
MIR. Bryan had carried all five of the above
he would have won. and that Is just as near
as he came to it. Never mind. the oracle
will have another chance in 1900. s. H.
Ridiculous Attempt to Crawfish.
To the Editor of The Evening Star:
1t would be amusing were 1t not dis
gusting to read the crawflsh statements Of
sheet published in the vicinity.
For instance. in recent number it says
it has rever at any time resorted to de-
nunciation of those who disagreed with it,
etc, and a day or two later it said: The
. still insists that the best way to go
through a campaign is to keep cool and
refrain from calling Names
And yet, in the editorial column adjoining
that containing the first of the above state
n. ents, in speaking of Palmer and Buckner,
it stigmatizes them as ''decoys." "a couple
of transparent mountebanks and num-
mers that Robert Macaire and Jacques
Strop were not more impudent impostors, -
with much more of a similar character.
Comment is unnecessary, further than to
say that this sheet must think its read
ers are not much better than idiots, If it
expects them to believe its. professions.
with such proof to the contrary in its own
columns. A READER.

Something New In Car Building

The long talked of new limited trains on
'sThe North Western Line c., St. P, NJ.
& O. Ry., to run between Minneapolis, St.
Paul and Chicago, are now in service.
The press as we'll as the people who have
inspected these trains admit that they rep
resent the acme of the car builders art.
The engine is after the famoue 999 pattern,
and from end to end the train is vesti-
buled with broad plate glass vestibu!es
which completely close the platforms and
add greatly to the beauty as well as TO the
comfort OF the train.
If you are gong East, why not patronize
the new North Western Limited" Ex-
curson OF other classes of tickets are good
on this train and no extra fares are charged
for the superior accommodations.
Tickets, sleeping car reservations and
full information on application to your
home agent, or address Il. W. Truesdale,
general passenger agent, St. Paul, who will
be pleased to forward you pamphlet. CIV

there is nothing equal to them in car con-
structior-not even the wonderful trains

Boiling Rivers

1t is sure enough. 1t IS not as large as
the Mississippi; indeed, it is quite small
but mighty interesting stream for all
that 1t issues from the sides of a
mountain in thousand tiny rills, more
or less, and Of almost as many colors.
These gather themselves into pools and
lakelets on the mountain side, covering
an area of about 200 acres. Overlooking
their boundaries, they slowly trickle
down the sides Of the mountain, forming
small cliffs, the most wonderful in the
world From a distance one can hardly
believe what the eyesight reveals-white,
black, orange, lemon, terra Gotta, green
blue, red, pink, separate and in manifold
combinations, stand out before him. II
is a hill of painted cliffs on the sides OF
the mountain that rises high above. And
the odd part Of it is that each of these
exquisite colors represents a different
temperature. Does that startle your ere
dulity? Even SO; it is true.
When through with this beautiful
painting process these waters again come
together, and then. as if full of mischief
like a pack of small boys trying to play
hide and seek, dive down and remain I'M
der the ground for space of two miles
and then flow out from the mouth Of a
convenitaas one of the clearest, most
beautiful green streams Imaginable.
Where these waters emerge from the
mountains into the little lakes they are
hot, boiling hot. During their dark,
underground journey they fall several
hundred feet and also many degrees in
holiness, SO that when they ag.;n see
daylight they are much cooler. This,
then, is Boiling river, an underground
mountain stream of hot water.
But you ask, where is it? Where can
l see it? 1t lis in Yellowstone Park, at
Mammoth Hot Springs. It is one of the
lesser-mind you, the lesser-wonders OF
this land of wonders. Go there and see
it by all means, but first send to Chas. s.
Fee, General Passenger Agent Northern
Pacific railroad st. Paul, Mimi, six cents
for Wonderland '96, that tells all about
