WORKED THE HOTELS.
The Regent and Raleigh victimized
by a Crook.

A clever crook, during the past week,
has successfully operated his craft in this
city, and as a result the Raleigh Hotel
and the Hotel Regent have been victimized
by bogus checks, on Philadelphia banks, to
the extent Of S25 and $50 respectively.
The man registered first at the Regent,
and after stay of d few days an
nounced a sudden call to the bedside or a
friend who was seriously i'll in Phila-
delphia, and presented in payment a check
drawn on the Girard National Bank Of
Philadelphia. The check was accepted
and when the amount of the strangers bill
had been subtracted from the SIS check,
Regent check for $50 and SIC in cash
were given him.
From the Regent he went 10 the Ra-
leigh and registered. Here he realized on
the Regent check for $50, and after a
brief stay skipped the town just in time
to avoid unpleasant explanations TO the
Regent pTopretors, for the bogus check
sent by the hotel for Acknowledgements to
Philadelphia was returned with the an
nounccment that the GiraTd Bank had no
such depositor.
The swindler made use of number of
false names during his stay in this city,
but from his description he has been iden-
titled with similar transactions in other
cities,

AMERICAN LUMBER IN CHINA.
1t Is an Important Article of Inn
port at Shanghai.

pOIt Ut
Animportant article of import at ShanG-
hal is American lumber, according to a
report from Consul General Jeruigau, at
that port, just received by the State De-
partment. This has principally consisted
OF pine from oregon ana Washington,
fornia also finds an appreciative market
there The eastern part of China is al
most denuded OF trees, causing its native
lumber supply to be very limited. The
region back of FOochow furnishes con-
siderable wood, not suitable for building
purposes in a foreign sense, but affording
the means OF large traffic between the
natives. l'fsf
1t is from the Foochow region that the
wood for making coffins is mostly OBJ
tanned. the superstition OF the Chinese
permitting only certain kinds to be used
for this purpose From HUM and other
parts of western China large quantities
of pine are cut and RATED down the Yang
tsze River, but dis rule it is of a very
inferior quality Some wood finds its
way from the interior to Canton. Teak
and other varieties OF hard wood are i'm
ported from the East Indies, Siam and
Burmah, and some pine comes from Japan
Recently lot of railroad tics-were brought
from japan TO TieHtsin
Between twenty and thirty million square
feet of lumber were imported at Shanghai
in 1896, of which $4,000 900 came from
the United States, against about 9,OOO,.

SALE OF LIQUOR TO MINORS
The Ruling of the Courts Upon the
Subject Discussed.
Position of the Excise Board-Con-
tention That Delivery of Beer to
a Child Violates Law.

The statement made recently before the
| excise board by Prosecutor James Pugh,
to the effect that the sale and delivery
| by bartender OF beer or other intoxi-
cants, to a child, to be afterwards be de-
hyered to an adult, does not constitute a
violation OF the law against sales to
| minors is contrary to the Interpretation
given to the law by the excise officers, and
| il is understood that in the consideration
of applications there will be no change in
their ruling. Mr. Pugh announced that,
according TO the decision of all the courts
such sales is admissible, where IT can be
shown that the child is a mere agent of an
| adult.
This ruling is upon section 6 of the
liquor law, which provides in substance
that liquors shall not be sold ''or other
wise disposed Of to a minor or an in
toxicated person, and the excise board has
held that the words otherwise disposed
Of forbid the delivery of intoxicants TO a
minor, even where il is known that the
PURCHASERS is for and in the name of a person
of mature age.
Ii is contended by anti-license partisans
that any other construction of the law
will open wide the door to violations, and
that the liberal ruling OF the courts, as
cited by MFR. Pugh, is contrary to the spirit,
if not the letter of the law.
From what has been said by way Of
comment, it is evident that without an
explicit order 70 the contrary. from some
competent authority, the board will here
after, as heretofore, hold that a baTkeeper
who habitually delivers beer TO a Child,
through tine agency Of the "growler,"
will work the forfeiture of his right to
a license.
This, it is said, viii bring up a test
case in the courts upon which will be ex-
pended the talent Of able lawyers ON
both sides, and if the decision announced
by Mr.. Pugh shall stand the test the Anti
Saloon League will go to Congress with
an amendment of the law, which viii ef-
fectually set at rest all doubts upon the
subject.
1t is not claimed that the saloons gen.
orally are in the habit of permitting chill
dren to receive beer for Others, butthereare
instances where charges of that char
acter have been made, and at the last hear
ing in case but recently reported in The
Times the question came up to confront
those who were striving to defeat the re-
newal of the license upon an accusation in
part of sales to minors by delivery under
the conditions stated

Charlotte Perkins stetson's Lecture

Charlotte Perkins Stetson will give heI
great lecture on "0ur Brains and What
Ais Them" tomorrow night at O'Clock
in the Church of Our Father, corner of
Thirteenth and l. streets northwest. Mrs.
Stetsons addresses are everywhere well
received, and she fills the rostrum with
grace and wisdom. It has been said by
one OF her critics: "If the power to con-
centrate into close, ,highly-charged rh ythmic
diction whole areas of human experience.
and give in verse the entire atmosphere
of some region Of human life be real poetry,
then Mrs. Stetson poem called The Wolf
at the Door, secured by Scribper's and
published by them in recent issue of their
magazine, are certainly entitled to this
rank Hoods Song of, the Shirt and Mrs.
Browning's The Cry of the Children struck
pangs of self.reproach into the public con-
science; this poem OF Charlotte Perkins
Stetson portrays perhaps ne less foreibly
the CHASTITY prosecutions Of the enceasing
poverty which hangs over thousands OF
human beings in our day."

As result Of the announcement made
by this paper yesterday, that a free pack
age Of DR.. Hobbs sparagus Kidney Pills

whowouid call at Henry Evans Drug Store,
936 street northwest, tomorrow, an
irtense interest has been awakened in
this distribution.
large number of people called last
evening and this morning to make in
quiries about the free samples of this
wonderful medicine to be given away to-
morrow, which shows what general in
terest is taken by the public in the test
now being given by Dr. Hobbs OF his
discovery for the cure OF all kidney all
ments.
Much TO our qualification, a number Of
lady callers have shown an unusual in
terest in this great distribution.
''Can it be possible" said a man who
called yesterday, that the advancement
in the science of medicine has at last
reached climax for poor sufferers like
myself?
Il am going to say one thing at any
rate. The owners of this medicine Ger
tainiy have faith in it, and they are going
about it in an honest, straigh tfOrw ard

confidence and strong hope that / shall
again be a well man."

THE PEOPLES FORUM.
The Proper Organ of Labor.
the Editor of The Times.

To the Editor OF The Times:
As one who puts a high value on the
products of labor, and as a friend of
labor generally, ] desire TO make the
point that laboringInen should gauge the
merits Of newspaper by the same standard
that they gauge other useful articles and
commodities is. by merit. The time
is approaching nearer and nearer when an
uneducated and unintelligent laboring
man will be a rarity, and it is even now
that we find among the most intelligent
of our citizens the laboringnan. Too fire.
quently in the past, however, have they
made themselves liable to be unfavorably
criticized by adopting a seconti-rate and
inferior newspaper as their recognized
organ Such action has been detrimental
to their interests.
Therefore, it is with pleasure that /
can record the fact that among the think
ing workmen | find those who consider The
Times as now managed vastly more de-
serving of their support and patronage than
when it appeared TO be dominated by
spirit of ultramontane zeal for labor's in
terests, SO much 80 that it overleaped
itself and fell on the other side. May
it prosper as a deserving friend of what
is right. II. II. 5.

A Soldiers Statement.

To the Editor of The Times:
The Cooperative Town Company OF
Tennessee was Organized in 1891, with
men of national reputation, whose names
were kept before the public for five years,
inviting confidence and to secure stock
holders. Having confidence in the strong
board of directors, invested 81 600, and
this sum at simple interest would have
earned me 500 year, so that / am
out fully $4,000 by my investment. l
am a poor old veteran soldier and can't
afford to lose this large sum. have
the names of 1O0in Washington who have
invested in the Town Company, and there
are many more, and believing that the
Washington Times will help in a good
cause, I would in this way propose that
we all get together some afternoon in
Washington and see what can be done to
help save our investments.
