A Rainbow Ends in the Center O.
 Washington Street and Second.

Washington Street and Second
 There is an old legend popular with youth which says there is gold at the end of a rainbow This explains the presence of a large number of pros pectors at the corner of Washington and Second streets yesterday after the rain had ceased and the skies were clearing. It was at this spot that a rainbow ended and from there it stretched it's radiant colors off towards the Camel Back mountain. It was a beautiful. sight. and an unusual one. too. It is seldom that rainbow ever selects the center of a street to blend it's colors with the earth, and the prospectors gathered there felt just a little uneasy about It. They are su- perstitious set, but none of them cared to make public display Of their sus- picions that this phenomena meant more than the valley folks believed. The rainbow did not last long, but the spot it pointed to was well marked by the prospectors, and it is not unlikely that there will be found a monument there this morning, and location mo- tice filed in a tin can held tightly be- tween the rocks.

RECONSIDER THE DECISION.
COmmf mfssiOners Withdraw Favorable
Report ON Pending Le%tsla zion.

In submitting to Chairman Mcmillan of
the Senate District committee a report on
Senate bill 4159 granting to the vestry
Of Washington parish the right to sell
burial sites in parts OF certain streets in
Washington, the District Commissioners
withdrew their former favorable recon-
mendations on the measure made in a re-
port thereon to the House. They explain
that since making the first report they
gave public hearing in the matter. and
now, having had time to give it more ma
ture consideration. they are impelled 10 the
belief that the proposed legislation should
not be enacted.
The Commissioners state they believe it
inadvisable to increase the area for burials
within the city limits. All cemeteries they
think, within the city limits should in time
be removed therefrom. 1t seems to them
that wise public policy would suggest
that only the lots in the cemetery (the
CongressonaD should be used for burial
purposes, and the streets now exempt
from burirls of other than for public serv-
ants should not be encroached upon.

To the Editor OF The Evening Star:
Please allow me space In your valuable
columns to correct certain expressions made
by number of our best friends relative 10
the patriotism OF the colored man 10 his
country In time when we are threatened
with danger do rot think the fidelity of
the colored man to the flag Of this country
ought to be questioned, especially by those
who are acquainted with the history OF the
American negro in the line of patriotism
10 this government. When he had no flag
no government, he showed his patriotism
toward his neighbor In the revolutionary
war. WHEN he had no flag or country. the
colored man was among the first to strike
for the Al erican liberty. and was with the
first that filled the patriots grave. In the
war OF 1872 he again offered his service,
though slave, to assist i'm protecting the
flag of his master He was accepted and
served, and WAS honoraby discharged. In
the war OF 1861. at the darkest hour of the
nations life, when the very foundation of
this government was upon the eve of being
wrecked, the negro offered his service TO
assist i'm saving it, he was accepted as a
soldier and was paid half the sum that
other soldiers received; still he murmured
not. Afterward he was placed upon the
full footing OF other common soldiers.
Then his ranks were increased from 1900
TO 1900 TO more than 100000. Thousands of
these men never saw gun before. but
showed their patriotism by fighting for
their own freedom and for a flag that is
today his flag. and land that is his coun-
try. The honor of his country has been
called into question, and has been insulted
by the staying of 268 Of it's proud sailors
and officers, without a moments notice and
without the slightest provocation for the
act. To this end the negro's blood has run
as high for vengeance as that OF any other
American citizen. and he stands ready to-
day not only to offer 2oo.00O. If need be for
protection of a land that is his, but twice
100000. IL required. To this end. We are
engaged I'm raising a regiment of colored
troops from the District of Columbia, to be
offered to this government, and to serve IL
at any point where they may be assigned.
We hore to be able within very short
time to present to you a regiment of 1000

to show their patriotism as their fathers

the good work performed by the colored
troops I'm that conflict.
In concluding his remarks the speaker
III ged his hearers to keep up the reputation

said, and they ought to appreciate IL. He
urged the women to tender their services
to the government Immediately. so as to

The latest device for catching rats and
mice and killing them is by the use OF
electricity. The appearance OF the ma
chine is very simple. The platform is Of
metal and connected with one pole of the
battery. while ths other pole is insulated
by a glass rest ard resembles somewhat
the case for electric light bulbs In the
center is the wire of the other pole, made
into a hook bait, upon which the cheese
is placed. The trap is operative only when
the two poles are connected by some other
medium. The current may be turned on
and yet never have any effect unless both
the metal platform and the hook are sim
ultaneously connected. The plan Is to
halt the hook and thus attract the rats and
mice which will have 10 mount the plat
form to get at the cheese. As soon as
they touch IL the connection is made and
they fall deed-electrocuted.
