For the Eye of the Police.
To the Editor of The Evening Star:


Having repeatedly in vain endeavored to
ascertain from the District of Columbia
government why the contractor who is
hauling earth across the street bridge is
not required to clean said bridge, and also
the roadbed of p street on either side,
from its intersection with I'D street west
to the east and second entrance to the
metropolitan Car Company's property, ]
appeal to The Star for light and informa-
ton.
The police are certainly derelict in their
plain duty. or this intolerable nuisance
would have been abated long ago, when
their attention was first called thereto.
Surely leaving the street strewn, as it has
been for several months past, with earth
dropping from the numerous carts engaged
IN hauling earth to the company's Rock
creek dump is clearly in violation of police
regulations and renders the contractor liza
BILE to arrest and fine. But, whoever he Is
he appears to be law unto himself violat-
Ing the regulations with impunity.
Walking over the bridge this afternoon
just as two trains of cars passed, 1 was
enveloped in cloud of dust stirred up and
waited about thereby as they flew across
at the rate of twelve or fifteen miles per
hour!
Now, If the authorities really wish to de-
tect said company's trains in the very act
OF exceeding the permissible speed limit
the bridge. where several collisions have
occurred. is the place to do 1t. Nor is this
all, Tor the contractor not only filters the
street roadbed, but also the sidewalk

ing 1t impracticable in both wet and dry
weather.

To the Editor of The Evening Star:
The article in5 your paper of November

agents. peddlensj and street mechanics be-
cause they areeso cheap. SO reasonable and
so handy. 1t saved POTS of money and time
to deal with item. whereas regular mer-
chants and mechanIfs. who have capital
ard brains investednwho pay heavy taxes
and rents. are 30 unFeasonably high You
have forgottelit thes bellringers. umbrella
members and SCISSORS grinders and keyft-
tiers. ! thought We had an ordinance against
bell ringing en- the sIfet-we did have. Now,
these tramps-they are nothing better-have
permission to ring bells as loud as they
please. They pay very nearly nothing for
rent or taxes, but get most of the work.
Why? Because they are so handy and so
reasonable in their prices. while old Amer
lean citizen mechanics. who have high rents
and water taxes to pay, look on and see
these tramps get the work Mechanics can
rot go, nor will 1t pay Them to go, from

their shops. We don't make enough to adj

soon after he went to his post il appeared
he had not acquainted himself with the

at Dyea and Skaguay, and it Is understood
that the matter was discussed at yester-

High School has turned out many splen-
did foot ball players in past years, some
of whom are playing in the ranks of the
best teams in the country today, and the
team which will be made up from those in
town will be n hard one to buck against
AS far as IS known the team will be made
up from the following list: Barnard
Campbell, Monroe, Shuster, Loucks. Exley,
Jolly, Mills. Tindall, Brawner, Albert, and

WON BY THE EASTERNS.
High school Teams Play Close and
Exciting Game.

high ScnOOl IeulnS RAY a Close and
Exciting Game.
The tie that occurred between the East
ern and Central High School foot bali
teams in the game for tine championship
of the schools last Tuesday was played off
yesterday, the result being the winning of
the championship and game by the Eastern
school by to o.
The boys individually ON both sides played
splendidly, but the team work of the East
ems seemed much superior.
In the first half Bristow, Paschal and
Barnard distinguished themselves by some
fine tackling, while s. Maupin, Smell and
Brewer bucked the Central line repeatedly
for gains of from one to five yards at each
try. In the second half there was hardly
any feature, with the exception of the line
bucking CT both Oyster and Maupin, al
though had Oyster done more work against
the Eastern line instead of trying the ends
the Central team would have stood much
better chance for victory. Licarione Chap
Ign and Hoover played brilliantly. Ellis
was the weak point on the Central team
and If defeat was caused by any one play
er on that team it was probably his fault.
a large gathering was in attendance, the
rcoters for each school being out In force.
The colors of the schools were much in evil
dence and the grand stand presented a
most attractive sight.
Description of Play.
Shuster kicked off to Eastern's thirty
yard line and after some short gains the
Easterns were given fifteen yards for off,
side play, penalty that was exacted from
the Centrals many times during the game.
Then came an exchange of kicks between
Ellis and Smell. in which Smell gained near
ly ten yards. when the Centrals rushed the
bell back by steady gains to the center of
the field, where Shuster kicked to Eastern's
thfrty-Gve-yard line. Then Smell returned
the kick after a few minutes of play, the
ball going to Centrars hfteen-yard line,
where Ellis made tumble and CHAPLIN
dropped on the ball.
From the ffteenzyard line Eastern adj
vanced the ball to the cne-yard line, where
desperate stand was made. After two
downs, however. Brewer was pushed over
for the touchdown. Sneii missed goal leay-
