Winter Trips to "OId Point"

Those who wish TO take little trip be-
fore cold weather comes in earnest need
have no fear of regrettng their choice if
they decide on Fortress Monroe or Vir-
ginia Beach as their destination The cool
weather has as vet left these famous old
resorts unchanged. and one can almost i'm
agine that summer has returned to see the
humber of guesCs who are now stopping
at the Hygeia, Chamberln's new hotel
ana the Princess Anne. With their match
less location, balmy climate and magnifi-
cent hotels, there is little wonder that bot h
these places are fast gaining an enviable
reputation as ideal winter resorts. Those
who viii go from this city will find in the
NCrtOlk and Washington Steamboat Com
ldhy elegant steamers most delightful
means OF reaching both these places as
wei as Norfolk and Portsmouth. One of
the steamers of the line leaves the COM
IanE wharf. foot of 9TH street every
evening IN the year at q o'clock and ar
rlYes at Fortress Monroe at o'clock
and al Norfolk at O'Clock the following
morning.

Peril of Pedestrians.


10 the Editor of The Evening Star:
AS 1 reached the corner of H and 18th
streets northwest this morning a little girl
about nine years of age was being carried
into pharmacy, and l was informed that
in the effort to escape one car she had
been knocked down by another of the Met
presence of mind she would probably have
been killed. This occurrence leads me to
repeat what has been so often insisted
upon, that these cars move at speed
through the crowded thoroughfares Of the
city that at every moment threatens the
life or limb of pedestrians. Already the
reckless bicyciist has become a daily ter
TOR, and between the two there is scant
security for the pedestrian. Having daily
occasion to pass the corner where the So
called accident occurred this morning
am witness of the peril here encountered
but the same elements of danger appear at
many other points. One reflection occurs
to me in this connection, ard that is
whether, at least in the case of double
track, 1t is rot a mistake and error of
judgment to fix the stops of cars at or on
the street crossings, where the travel gen.
orally is most congested. One of the OBJ
vious dangers which frequent occurrence
has emphasized is that the unfortunate
victim in lodging one car Is run into by
another, which at the moment of his en-
deavor is concealed from view.
1t seems to me that in the interest of
the community generally a wiser practice
would be to stop the cars about midway
each square, where the travel is usually
lightest, and not to stop them side by side.
where one conceals the other from view.

ALLEYLESS SQUARES.
Dtscussion of thcsSubject in COnnec-
ton With n Permit.

uOn with Permit.
Speaking today of the recall of the per-
init issued to theChesapeake and Potomac
Telephone Company for the erection OF
poles on Wyoming avenue, Commissioner
Black said that thite he expects the COM
pany to take some1 &C ton in the matter,
he does not knowwhat 1t will be. The COM
pany, he remarked, undoubtedly has rights
In the matter, as have the citizens, and
no doubt both will insist on them.
Much annoyance and trouble, Commits
sioner Black thinks, could be avoided in
such cases If alleys should be made in
SUBURBAN sections, where the lots are In
Varlably very deep. Frequently squares in
way whatever exists, the consequence be-
Ing that garbage, ashes and like refuse are
taken away through the front yards or
doors of houses.
Not only all this could be done away
with, he says, by the making of alleys in
such squares, but also the erection of tele-
phone and telegraph poles in the streets.
For with alleys in existence, the neceS-
sary poles could be erected in them and
the streets would remain unobstructed by
the ebjected-to poles.
The opening of alleys. explained Com
missioner Black. is a very simple matter,
1t being accomplished on petition by
majority of the land owners in the alleyless
square addressed to the Commissioners.
The latter then secure the condemnation
of the required land by a marshars jury,
the awards for the land taken being less
the benefits, and the amounts apportioned
being levied as taxes where the DEMENT'S
exceed those allowed for the land taken

lew minutes, after suffering intense agony
The unfortunate n an had been employed

considerable buying for his employer. He
had been away from work for about two
weeks, and had only recently returned
Yesterday he was employed as usual and
about O'Clock in the afternoon went home
to dinner. His wife met him at the door
There was nothing in his appearance to in
dlcate anything wrong with him. In a few
minutes he was upstairs in his room and
when dinner had been prepared his wife
called him. Not receiving any response,
she went to see if there was anything the
matter, and found her husband lying on
the bed. He was unconscious and was I'M
able to speak to her.
Returning to the lower floor, Mrs GRAY
sent child to summon assistance. A call
was sent to police headquarters for an am
bulance, but when the vehicle arrived the
man was dead.
Mrs. Gray is unable to assign any cause
for her husbands act. He had been slight
ly i'll some time ago. but she thought he
son to suspect that he would take his own
life. Coroner Carr gave a certificate of
death, in accordance with the circum-
stances.

TOLD HIS OWN STORY.
DR.. Kelly Relates His Experiences
Resulting From Poisoning.


The experiences of DR.. D. ]. Kelly, who
recently had a narrow escape from death
as the result of eating poisonous mush-
rooms, was related before the members Of
the Chemical Society of Washington, at
meeting held last evening in the assem-
bly, hall Of the Cosmos Club. DR.. Kelly
told the story himself. his subject being,
"A Personal Experience With Amanita
Muscaria Poisoning
1t will be recalled that his companion
at the breakfast table when the mush
rooms were eaten Count de Veccni
who died from the effects of the poison.
DR.. Kelly said he ate of the fungi, and 1t
was good. He ate the heads first because
they were better than the stalks, the lat
ter having taste somewhat like that of
cabbage. About an hour after eating he
felt nervous, but suspected nothing. Soon
ne fell asleep in his chair. Then, when he
fell unconscious to the floor, he was re-
moved to Providence Hospital. When he
recovered consciousness he felt like
sound man dying" His body felt benumb-
ed. There was almost an absence of sensa-
tloE. There was no pain. 1t would have
been an easy death.
Some Recent Discoveries in the Ripening
of Cheese" was the theme of an address
by Dr. f. w. Allen and Garbage Dis
posaI' was discussed by Mr. Z. E. Ewell.
