CRUELTY OF THE FLAMES.
Home of Alfred VI. Duckett Swep
Away Last Night.

Away Last Night.
Misfortune and the dread fire fiend dealt
a heavy blow to Alfred NJ. Duckett and
eastern suburbs. near Benning race
track. last night.
While he and his wife and their five
little children were sleeping. at mid
night. flames broke out in some unknown
manner in the lower part of the house.
and within an hour all the perishabIe
property that the family had accumulate
ed in years wars destroyed.
Mrs. Duckett has been a sufferer from
heart disease for some time, and for this
reason the burning of the little home was
a terrible blow to her.
Duckett is a farmer. and with his 12-
acre lot and the markets of the National
Capital he managed to secure means
enough for the maintenance of his family
His place is located near Seat Pleasant.
in the vicinity. of Benning. and the pay
ments upon the property had almost been
completed.
unfortunately, just as everything SEEM
ed to point to a happy future, all
that he possessed was practically ruined
by the fire of last night. The home, It's
contents. and most Of the clothing of the
family was entirely burned.
When the flames were discovered the
bed upon which the children were sleep
ing was also on fire. Ducketrs clothes
were in another part Of the house and
were burned. He was compelled to bor-
row shirt and trousers from a neigh
bor.
The wife and children are being cared
for by relatives. Duckett is now thrown
penniless upon the world, and says he
has no present means of support.

A BUREAU LUNCH CRITIC.
Alleged Corrupt Culinary Favors to
Chief Omcials.

To the Editor Of the Times:
The lunch room in the Bureau of En-
craving and Printing is operated by a
local caterer and confectioner. who gets
free of charge his lunch room. fire. gas,
ice. and monopoly of serving lunch of
any kind he sees fit to cook. principally
"stews," which are sure to appear on the
bill of fare every day. his only expense
being to furnish free lunch to the chief,
assistant chief. chief clerk, and few
other ''chiefs" of minor importance.
These persons have their lunches served
in fine style. in a specially furnished
cafe. Most of the other employees have
to take whatever they can get from a
messenger, as they are not allowed to
go outside the door of their division after
o'clock in the morning, but have to
send a messenger generally who has to
take anything given him. pay his money
and say nothing.
We all work twelve hours a day in these
days of bonds and new war and revenue
stamps. and a great many work seven
teen hours.
Some Of these people, living near the
bureau, have been having dinner sent
them from their homes at o'clock every
day: others have been getting fresh milk
from a dairyman for one-half the price
the caterer charges. Today an order was
issued prohibiting food of any kind being
brought into the building. and now these
hard-worked people will be forced to buy
bureau tough steak and stale milk and do
without the nourishing food they have
had. or go hungry.
In other departments employees can go
out of the building at lunch time and buy
their lunch where they will. but we can
not even go to the lunch room Then to
think that even the privilege Of having
a little extra lunch sent in to US Is being
taken away, seems rather too hard. but
the caterer wants the whole thing. and II
matters little what the faithful employees
get, so they get 1t of him, and. strange
enough, the chief upholds him and issues
orders favorable to him all the time.
VIII you please air this little grievance
as 1t is hard to get any satisfaction In
the bureau? We can only grin and bear II
when an obnoxious order like this Ii
made, and it seems very hard not to bs
able to get what you eat from whoever
you please.
