LOST SATCHEL FOUND.
Its Recovery Due to IA Story Published
In The Times

Miss Heatwole, daughter OF the Congress
man from Minnesota, who lost her traye.-
ing case over Week ago, as told in yes
icrda Morning Ilnvs, recovered uer
property last night through the publicat.ou
of the story.
Miss Hcatwole gave her satchel to a col
ored boy at the station and told him To
carry II to the Cairo. She gave the num-
Der of her apartments asst a2l and told the
boy that the Cairo was on q street. He
started off with the bag, and promptly for
got all about the apartment house. The
number and street were all that his mind
could hold at one time. and he steereu
straight for No. 921 G street, and left the
satchel there.
The people who live at that number are
out of the city but a Mrs. Chase, who rooms
in the house. received the bag, and think
ing that it belonged to her friends, kept
it to await their return. Yesterday morn
ing she read in The Times that Miss Heat
wole had lost a travelling case and, as the
description fitted the one left by the boy.
she at once took it 10 the Cairo, where
Miss Heatwolc identified it.
Meanwhile the police had been search
ing for the colored boy whose forgetfulness
caused all the trouble. Special Officer
Miles finall y located him on a farm five
miles below Anacostia. and yesterday he
and Policeman Herpdon tramped down
there and returned with the boy, only to
find that the satchcl had been recovered.

TRAMPs AND SOCIAL EVIL.
Major Moore Tells Chiefs of Polio
HIS ENuerienCe With Bnth

Atlanta, Ga, May 15.-The police chiefs
yesterday discussed the proDlein OF deal
iug win gambling houses amt the social
evil.
,nef Whitman of san Francisco told OF
the methods in force In San Francisco. and
stated that lie had Just visited number
OF cities with n view of studying the meth
ods used in handling such matters, and
stated that Cincinnati had the best syS-
te;a he had found. Chief Whitu an was
followed by Chief DeitSch Of Cincinnati,
VINO gave an Interesting description of the
unetho used by his department in handling
SUCH houses and gambling rooms.
Chief Glass OF Los Angeles s ate 4 that the
laws OF California recOguiZet poker As a
scientific game, and did not prohibit il,
but stringent laws were in force against
games OF chance
MAJOR Moore OF Washington closed the
discussion and gave a very int ereSting
,iescript ion of his method of handling
tramps and dealing with bawdy houses.
Major Moore has an experience in both lines
that few men have undergone, and the
detail of the visit of CoXey's army inter
ested the ASSOCIATION very much.
The executive comiEittee for the ensu-
ing year is: Chief W. G. Moore, Washing
ton, ID. c.; Supt Starkweather, Detroit;
Supt. McElvey, Brooklyn; Chief Atkins.

IN LEGISLATION.

No better river and harbor bill has ever
been pa ssed by Congress than that which is
now in process OF adjustment by the Senate
and House. Although the actual appro-
priatiun for the ensuing fiscal year is only
about twelve million dollars, authority is
given for contracts aggrcgating eighty-five
millions more and thus the engineer de-
partment of the Army, under whose super
intcndcnce all river and harhor improve
Inents are undertaken, is enabled TO make
very much better bargains with contrac-
tors and get 4 very much larger amount
OF work done for a given amount than
would he possible under the system that
has been in vogue hitherto IL is
sensible and, thernfc-c, commendabe re-
versai o' me penny wise pound foolish
r,iicy that has heretofore governed Iegis-
lation OF this character.
Those who have watched the progress
IL such it may be cailcd-Of river and har-
bor legislation in past years must be aware
OF the fact that ii was sort OF happy
So-lucky arrangement. a river or harbor
might be appropriated for by one Con-

indeed, it has happened that work begun
In one year would fail to be considered
for a year or two afterwards. md when
at last its turn came again. IT would be
found that the work GOnc at first had
gone all to pieces and had to be done
anew. And again it would happCn-that
the appropriation made would not even
be enough to carry the work through one
season and it had to bc left in so iuCom-
pletc state by the engineers in charge as
to be practically worthless when the next
annual appropriation would come around.
Not thousands. but millions OF dollars have
been squandercd in this way. Enough
money las been literally thrown into the
Mississippi river for so-Callcd improvements
through this sort OF piecCIlcal legislation
to have completed all that need be done
for years on the Father of Rivers.
In a few isolated cases the methods now
put in general operation have been tried
heretofore and with the best results. II
is stated that by authorizing contracts to
De made for several years ahead over two
million dollars was saved in the improve
nent OF the Philadelphia harbur, "a per
cent in Mobile bay and harbor, and %
per cent IN a certain California harbor,
;he name of which has escaped US. There
S no reason to doubt that proportionate
Saving VIII be effected ou all river and
narbOr works now that the same coiEmou-
sense policy will govern all operations.
Another great adva utage Will be gained
by the new departure. 1t VIII not be
necessary IN every Congress to go over the
same ground in providing for river and
har5or improvements. 1t VIII suffice to
appropriate the amount needed for the
next fiscal year for work already under
contract. In every way matters will be
simpiified and better results obtained.
Perhaps it might prove equally advantage
Gus to apply this policy TO other contract
work, such, for instance, as public build
ings. At any rate it would do 10 harm
to inquire into the matter.

BICYCLE PATH TO BALTIMORE.

Washington wheelmen and wheelwomen
Will lie delighted to learn that the project
is Icing broachcd of constructing Il bicycle
path between this city and Baltimore
Such path would give i new impetus to
cycling. and not only would brin the two
cities more closely together, but by reason
OF the easy and pleasant communication
with either or both would have the effect
of extending suburban settlements This
of course. is largely the business aspect
OF the undertaking, while the chief con-
sdcration for the Gevotees of the wheel
is the prospect of getting a cycle track
thirty-five miles in length on which they
can practice their favoritc sport to their
hearts content.
Several such ira cks have been con-
structed in different sections of the conn
try, but none OF the IN is a long as would be
the one from the National Capital to the
Monumental City. II would he an enterprise
rejecting credit upon the cyclers OF the two
cities, and ought to command support even
of those net able to bestride Il wheel. for
the advantages TO both Washington and
Baltimore as well as to the towns living
along the projected route would be many.
aud vaI.ed.
II is probable that immediate steps will
be taken to give shape 10 the enterprise
which cannot but commend itself to all
wheelmen. Washingtonians, because OF
the supe rb pavements OF our city may feel
the need of such path less strongly than
their brothers and sisters of the wheel, but
they will none the less view the project
with favor and do all in their power to
push 1T along.

with some degree of suspicion. She says
that since rapid women have appro-

become kind OF badge. and the kind is
by TO means pleasant one" a Natural
Blonde" further says that a walk up
Broadway has become well nigh Impossible
because of the looks of unmis takable sig
nifieance that greet her. and she naturally
protests. Perhaps for this very reason
the Natural Blonde has not noticed that
the tide OF color has changed recently, and
that the women who coax their hair have
been aiming at red hues that range all
the way from a bronze effect to a pro-
nounced red The dishonest blonde has
forsaken her peroxides. In the Broadway
parade. where the women with variable
hair may be found in the largest num-

out. colorless blonde which a troupe OF
English burlesquers made popular many
years ago.
