KEATS THE GROUND HOG.
summer Car Comes Out of It's Hole
and Spring Is Here.


and Spring Is Here.
The signs of spring are various and past
understanding. They come from the in
cipient poet and the book beer advertise
ments; the newspaper representations of
what tenn will win the pennant.
The weather bureau may send out false
reports; the ground hog may be wrong and
all other signs fail ignomiDiously but there
is one that is unfafling and Washing
tonian will swear by it. 1t is the first
appearance of the summer cable car. When
the open cars are put on spring is here
and summer is fast approaching. Ailother
signs may point to the contrary, but the
public will pass them by and plank their
money on the open car.
Yesterday It came forth from the cavern
Gus depths of the sheds, in new Easter
dress of the color of its line and gave the
glad tidings Of ethereal zepbyrs and other
spring things.

SAY If is IMPROyIDENT.


Adverse action was recommended yes
terday by the District Commissioners upon
Senate Bill 104O, to amend an act, APP
proved June >, 1890. for the relief or the
holders OF special assessment certificates.
"The improvidence OF such legislation"
the Commissioners say, will be shown
in a report from District Auditor Petty,
which accompa nies the Commissioners
letter.
Mr.. Petty goes into an elaborate cX-
plaaatloD OF the character Of the certifi-
Gates. for which redemption is sought, ard
says:
''This act" June .. 1890, lis extremely
favorable TO the holders OF these in
validated securities. IL allows the face
OF tile certificates and interest thereon
usual 10 per cent per annum, from
the date of their issue 10 the date Of the
act. As many OF them had been staIding
twent y-five years, and few less than twenty
years, IL is apparent that the government
in thus redeeniDg them pays the-amount
OF principal three or thrce and half
times over"
II never knew so liberal 4 statute, and
/ doubt If a parallel can be found, even
in District legislation
One object of the bill is to extend the
interest-beariDg period, ard for the rea-
sons given. and the additional argument
that the certificates are very rarely pre-
sented by the original holders, Mr.. Petty
opposes the change in the law, as asked
for.
The appointment of Mrs. Cora B. Miller
by the board OF trustees as matron OF
the Girls Reform School. to take effect
