HATE THE GERMANS.
Expulsion Of Danes from North
schIesvig ArOuses Bitter Feel
ing in Scandinavia.

Prof. George Brandes some time ago
agreed to visit Berlin and deliver an
address before the Press association of
that city, but later on declined to keep
his engagement on account of the ex-
pulsion of Danes from North Scbleswig.
In an explanatory letter he says that
the Germans do not seem to realize the
bitter feeling which the explosions
have excited through Scandinavia gen
orally. He then writes: sit is precise
ly because our government preserves
silence that the wounds caused to the
national feeling by these measures
burn the deeper into the hearts of the
people. The theory that an agitation is
being conducted from Copenhagen to
restore, by force if necessary, North
Schleswig to Denmark is too absurd to
REQUIRE serious notice. In all Denmark
not single man thinks of such thing.
But to-day one cannot denationalize a
people by force" The Danish inhabit-
ants of Schleswig, he goes on to say, do
not intend to give up their mother
tongue even should their children re-
ceive no instructions in it, nor do they
intend to renounce their right of free
ly conversing in Danish with their
brothers and sisters across the frontier.
Germans must also learn tounderstand
that just as they invoke the sympathy
of Europe in view of the hard measures
enforced against the German tongue in
Bohemia and elsewhere, so too the
Danes, under similar conditions, plead
for the right of preserving the Danish
language, even though those who speak
it may be living in a strange land.

1nnr skirta.

A shoe filter comments on the sorry
condition to which ladies' skirts are
brought through the present fashion OF
trailing their length over the dirty
pavements- Ladies themselves do not
know" says he, "how much dirt they
carry around from this style of skirt.
| If I take off and replace pair OF laced
boots I have to wash my hands imme-
diately to remove the dust that is
whipped in by the skirts and held by
the tongue and lacings of the boot, even
though the wearer may have walked
but a short distance. The skirts are not
only long at the back, but at the sides
and they act as brushes to sweep the
street dirt directly in about the ankles
and on the petticoat hens. 1t is a con-
slant wonder to me that women OF evil
dent daintiness and neatness will per-
sist in this very untidy fashion" The
filter echoes the surprise Of nine-tenths
of the women who wear skirts, but
who would allow any other stupidity II

Mistaken Economy,

There are many people who econo-
mize in the wrong way, doing without
the necessities of life, and INDUCING
sometimes in the extras which it would
be better to do without. A woman
comes to the conclusion that whenever
she does not buy anything, or cuts off
an expense, she is economizing, and
will often spend 25 cents worth of time
to save five cents. To do without norr-
'ishing food is more expensive, in the
long run, for doctors bills are costly
items. The right way to economic is
in eztravagaces, not in necessities

the Abolition of the Old
Presbyterian Cemetery.

Since the last meeting of the Citizens
Association there has been considerable
discussion in Georgetown relative to the
resolutions introduced at that session by
J. Barton Miller concerning the abolition
of the old Presbyterian graveyard and the
purchase OF the land on which it is located
by the Government for the establishment
of a public park or reservation. There
seems TO be a feeling among the members
of the Presbyterian Church against the re-
moval of the remains inferred there. This
feeling seems TO be based wholly upon SEN
timental grounds. The argument that such
disinterment would be desecration is the
principal objection. There are those of the
church. however, who are willing that the
land should be sold and the remains re-
moved to some other cemetery. providing
this is done in a decent and careful man

securing the desired appropriation with

the entire square, the greater part OF which
is occupied by the graveyard 1t is the in
tention of the promoters of the movement
TO get the matter thoroughly before the
public. SO that by the next session OF Con-
gress the matter will be ready for pre-
sentatioD.
Now that the intentions of the Baltimore
and Ohio Railroad Company have become
fully known to the public concerning their
plans for securing an entrance into
Georgetown. the business men and prop
erty owners are discussing the effect
which the benefit OF railroad facilities will
have upon the town. The most conserva
tive are freely predicting an immediate
rise in property values especially in the
business sections and along the river front
where the tracks of the road will be laid
1t is quite probable that the railroad yards
will of necessity be located short dis
tance up the river above the main part
Of town, as it will be practically impos-
sibe to accommodate the large number of
tracks necessary for the handling of
freight and passenger traffic within the
limits of Georgetown proper. Should the
project of building bridge across the
river at the Three Sisters, be carried out
thus securing direct connection with the
| South the traffic over the road would as
sumo much larger proportions than it now
enjoys. resulting In Georgetown becoming
great railroad centre.
| In all probability Georgetown owing TO
! its central position, standing as it does
! about half way between the North and
| the South, would be made the terminal of
! two railroad divisions. This would have
| the effect of increasing the population.
consequently increasing the trade of the
| local merchants in all branches of trade.
| Georgetown and in the section of the city
along the Potomac as far down as Long
Bridge would have the advantage of a
convenient shipping point. The last-nam-
| ed advantage it is thought will largely
| increase the Georgetown field of manu-
! facture as water power is only waiting to
| be harnessed. The citizens who are in
| terested in Georgetown in business way
| are exceedingly anxious to see the road
| enter the town.
