The Case of the Shoemaker Boy,


To the Editor of The Evening Star:
Can any good reason be given for the
action Of Police Judge, K1mbau In the case
Of the Shoemaker boy, as reported in The
Star OF yesterday?, 1t is Clear that the
Shoemaker household is not a fit place
for the boy tp question, nor for any child,
probably; but when, 1t was proposed to
send the badly abused lad to an orphan
home in Ohio. cF to a school ship in Phila-
delphia, why did not Judge KfmbaH per-
init one of these things to be done? The
brutal father is a citizen Of Ohio, only a
temporary resident in Washington, and In
all probability does not pay a cent of taxes
here. Why, then, give the boy In charge
OF our board of children's guardians, to
be kept here, another burden on this over
taxed community? Between the poor that
legttimately belong here and those that
hnd their way or are sent here from other
parts of the country-to say nothing Of the
scores Of children Of well-to-do parents that
are brought here to be educated at our
expense-the people of the District of Co
lumbia are oppressively overbuFdened: and
when a way Is pointed out by which the
load can be lightened in ever SO small a
degree 1t seems to me that our authori-
ties should aid In bringing about so de-
sirable an end. instead of placing obstacles
in the way. 1 ain. therefore, unable to un-
derstand tho motive Of Judge K.mbaIl' :

You should certainly know the

just to us.
We have gathered a collection of
ladies' exclusive" tailor-made suits
and skirts-which is unequaled in va
riety in all Washington.
AS we have bought for two big
outlets we have bought large guam
titles, and hence we have bought
cheaply-more so, perhaps, than any
store in town.
If it's anything to you to pick from
large stock, as most folks think it
is, you'll come here for this reason.
But it's not on that basis we expect
to make this sale, but because the
suits are better made, more exclusive
in style, more perfect in fit than those
usually seen about town, and because
of our purchasing power are lower
in price.
The assortment includes Coverts,
Cheviots, Cheviot Serges, Wool
Crashes, Broadcloths, Examines,
Meltonettes, Whipcordss English

crowded with strong characters and with a
romantic love story furnishing a complex

is dramatic, and although the central figure
is all that Is unrighteous in the abstract,
fellow absolutely without moral balance
and guilty of almost all crimes, yet he
passes from the scene with the regrets of
the reader. who cannot but appreciate the
true heroism leading to a sacrifice that
gives to the story its most impressive
touch.
