THERE WILLIE BE NO LIMIT
Impossible to Restrict the Use of Fireworks
July4
Correspondence with the Commits
siOners Upon hefsubject-Vieyvs
of Major Sylyester.

DR.. D. s. Lamb Of 500 10th street has sug-
gested to the District Commissioners that
the use Of noisy fireworks be restricted
July 4 to certain hours, from Z o'clock
am. to Z o'clock Pm, and that the police
department be instructed to enforce such
an order. The doctor also suggested that
it would be well to confine the explosions
to such public reservations as the White
Lot.
Would 1t not be possible" inquired DR..
Lamb Ito publish with your suspension
order some kind of an address, stating the
fact that there are many sick persons in
all parts Of the city to whom the noise of
exploding fireworks is a serious trial. and
in some cases directly harmful; that from
a due consideration for these persons 1t is
desirable that the use of noisy fireworks be
restricted to certain hours say from
O clock in the morning to Z o'clock in the
evening; that the police be instructed to
enforce this very reasonable requirement?
Certainly twelve hours is long enough to
satisfy ALL This will give opportunity for
rest and sleep. which last year, at least in
my own neighborhood, 10th and H streets
northwest, was impossible for two success
sive days. The health officer knows better
than / the extent to which sickness pre-
walls here, and can therefore give exact
testimony In regard to the deslrability of
some such action as l have suggested. 1

Fourth of July
Referred to Mai. Sylvester.
The matter was referred by the Commits
sioners to Major Sylvester the chief Of po-
lice, who reported that it will not be posi-
BILE to limit the explosions of fireworks to
certain hours July 4. 1t is stated that the
experiment of combining the firing of ex
plosives to vacant lots and reservations was
tried several years ago and resulted very
unsatfsfac tOrily. 1t is also said that those
interested in pyrotechnics took advantage,
on that occasion, of the absence of the po-
lice, who were giving attention to vacant
lots and reservations, to use their explo-
sives in streets, alleys and back yards.
Suggestions Concerning the Sick.
Excessive restrictions, thinks Chief Syl-
vester, tend to cause those who wish to dis
charge fireworks to retire to rear premises
where sheds are liable to be set on fire and
where the noise of explosions is in no wise
abated. He suggests, therefore, that notif-
cation be sent to police headquarters from
all localities where there are sick persons in
order that THE police may be Instructed
to use every effort to prevent the use of
fireworks in such localities. This suggeS-
ton the Commissioners have approved.

Durbhunga, one of the premier noble
men of Hindoostan and a trusted advis-
er of Lord Curzon. This Hindoo prince
has respectfully placed at the disposal
of Lady CurZon the splendid herd of
elephants that are among his vast pos
sessions, thus making Lady Curzon the
possessor pro TEN. Of more Of these
.lordly creatures than any other woman
IN the world. Her ladyshlp has devel-
oped great liking for the elephants,
and frequently takes advantage of the
friendliness existing between the vice.
roy and the maharajah to ride forth on
one of the gorgeously caparsoned ele-
plants Of state.
With that happy spirit Of frank
friendliness in the company Of under.
lngs that only an American woman
knows how TO indulge without loss Of
dignity, the vicereine has made herself
the idol of the attendants at the palace
of the Indian prince. 10 penetrate the
reserve of an Oriental of high degree is
a feat that not every white man or
woman, even among the upper ten of
India, can boast of having accomplish
ed To be given the freedom of the
magnificent palace of his highness the
Maharaiah of Durbhunga is compli-
ment even to viceroy and vicereine.
The elephants belonging to the rajah
are under the control of an old man
upwards of eighty years of age. Each
elephant rejoiced in an appellation
taken from the names Of NEUROLOGICAL
or historic heroes; and it is their veter
an keepers boast that every elephant
is known to him by name.
The title dates back only to 1908,
when the then Maharajah Clutter
Singh was formally recognized and In
vested by the British Government. But
the origin of the family can be traced
as far back as the reign of the En-
peror Akbar, whose lieutenants they
were in the province of Behar.
The growing friendliness of such a
man for Lord and Lady Curzon Is
viewed with pleasure by those interest
ed in the welfare Of India, for If the
hearts of the native princes are with
the Queens representatives the sta
bility of the Government Is doubly as
sured To have won so emphatic a
demonstration Of regard from the
Maharajah of Durbhunga shows that
| In the future of the great Indian EN-
pire the American wife Of Lord Curzon
| is destined to play a significant part.
