WAYLAND SEMINARY,
Font Stanton Property May De It's
New Site.

Font Stanton Property May be It's
New Site.
At a recent meeting Of the Washington
Baptist Ministers Association it was de-
cided to send a telegram to the American
Baptist Home Missionary Society, with
headquarters in New York. advising them
to buy old Fort Stanton and the property
adjoining, for the use of Wayland Semi
nary of this city. The Wayland Seminary
occupies as is well known, large lot Of
ground at the head of 10th street northwest.
but for two reasons the site has become I'M
suitable for the purposes of the institution.
The first of these Is that the grounds are
too small and cramped and the second that
the lot Is a great deal more valuable than
understood that the Fort Stanton property,
which is located on the other side of the
Eastern branch, In the vicinity of Overlook
Inn. can be secured at such a reasonable
figure that the money obtained by the sale
of the present site would not only secure
grounds a great deal better adapted for the
purposes of the institution, but also give
lne institution an increased endowment.
Inc Fort Stanton property comprises about
thirty acres. and from it can be viewed the
entire city as well as long stretch down
the Potomac. If this plan is consummated
IL is expected that the work of erecting a
new seminary will be commenced some
tlme next spring. Wayland Seminary,
.. is among the first of colored educ a
tional institutions in the United States, is
under the control of the Baptist Home Mis-
slonary Society, and whatever is done in
the matter will be under their sanction.
IL Is confidently expected, however, by the
local ministers, that the change in location
as Indicated, will be effected Wayland is
open to both sexes, and is under the charge

A Brave Action.

Yesterday afternoon about 6:30 o'clock a
spirited horse, drawing light buggy, the
property of Mr.. Thomas Waggaman, ran
away from the corner of 14th and G streets.
Dodging other vehicles in the way, the
horse dashed toward the treasury and
turned into the avenue. Several efforts to
stop the runaway proved unavailing, until
young man, who was sitting in Lafayette
Park, rushed out and grasped the bri lie
rein. Avoiding the animals hoofs, he hung
Oh manfully. and after being dragged along
for a hundred feet more he brought the
horse to a stop. The young man refused
to give his name, and did not seem to think
he had done anything remarkable.

An Inconvenient Postal Arrangement

To the Editor Of The Evening Star:
Any one who has occasion to go to the
city post office will find the stamp windows
and the money order windows very conve-
niently arranged. After buying a stamp,
however. he will find it necessary to go
some one hundred and fifty feet further to
the rear of a gloomy lobby to deposit let
ter. To get into the street he must return
along the lobby. This requires walk to
deposit piece Of mail longer than across
2 narrow block like that between 9TH and
Sth streets. There is no box to receive
mail outside the building nearer than the
corners of 9th and eth streets. In this re-
spect most, IL not all, the branch post
offices are more conveniently equipped
than the central Office. J.

Should Sundays He Counted:

To the Editor OF The Evening Star:
Referring to the letter of Jus Civile."
September %, there are yet other points to
be considered in the question submitted.
which are or should be, of general interest
Sundays are legal holidays. and all work.
ing people are exempt from labor on those
days. wherever they may be. 1t is an abb
surdity to make the ruling that a clerk who
is absent from duty on Saturday is also abb
sent from duty on Sunday, and therefore
either loses that day Sunday or part of
the annual leave. or a fraction of the
monthly pay. Could any logician reduce
such reasoning to the form Of a sylogism?
Again, Sunday and Labor day, or Sunday
and Fourth of July, or Sunday and Christ
mas day occur in succession-Labor day,
Fourth of July and Christmas are counted
out, but Sunday is unallowed.
Now. there can be only one way to recon-
cile these absurd inconSiStencies-that we
are governed by Jewish law, which does
not recognize Sundays as differing from
working days. ENLIGHTENMENT.
