TALK NO. v.
BOOKkEEPERS

The majority of bookkeepers and stenographers need glasses. The nature of their work calls fo- severe strain upon the eyes. Reading fig ures is harder work than anything else. In reading 8 book CT paper we take in whole words at a glance. In figuring, each character must be considered separately. Running the eye up and down a row of figures is particularly tiresome to the mus cles. lfthere is the slightest error in the harmony of the eyes, the strain is doubled. If you are a bookkeeper and find that your eyes pain you, or the figures blur, or your head aches, you are taking chances every day that you put of wearing glasses. If you wait too long, you will have to wear glasses every minute. If you begin now, very likely you will only need them at your work. If your eyes give you trouble, come in and talk the matter over. I will examine them free of charge and tell you what ought to be done.

Assessor advised that the matter be al
lowed to remain in allegiance until addi-
t0nal legislation, which is now pending
could be assured. Mr.. Larner then re-
quested that the District Commissioners
make an examination into the objects and
purposes of the Halls of the Ancients in
order to determine whether the present
license law was applicable to the institu-
ton. He explained that the halls pre-
scented a permanent exhibition of ancient
architecture and were not intended as
place OF amusement in any sense of the
word. It's primary object, he said. was to
promote the building of the national gal
ieries under Congressional legislation and
to educate the people along particular lines.
The matter was then referred to the At
tOrney for the District. His opinion. given
yesterday, is as follows:
The National Galleries, In their show
called the Halls Of the Ancients are con-
Quoting an exhibition for gain and come
within the provision of the ordinance OF
the late corporation of Washington in re-
gard TO exhibitions for gain, approved April
II. 1864, which provides that all public
shows or amusements. or exhibitions for
gain, shall PAY license tax of So for each
day or night performance or $40 per week
II may be that this is an onerous charge
upon the National Galleries. but that would
not justify the Commissioners in suspend
ing the law until some other one is passed

WATER PRESSURES
Supplementary Report Of Su-
perintendent Mcfarland.
The Prevailing Conditions During
The Week Past.
Tables Showing Conditions During
the Late Storm and Comparisons
with the Year 1898.

w A. Mcfarland, Superintendent Of the
District Water Department, has submitted
to Engineer Commissioner Beach a supple
mentary report on the continued low pres
sures in the city during the recent ex-
iremely cold weather The report opens
with the statement that the greatest
trouble was experienced in the vicinity of
Iowa Circle, on the summit of Capitol Hill
and in the vicinity of First and X Street,
southeast. The trouble eliminated on the
morning of February -, when no pressure
at all was found at either Fifth and East
Capitol or First and X Streets southeast.
Superintendent Mcfarland thinks the alb
sence of pressure simultaneously at these
two points is interesting in view OF the
statement frequently made to the effect
that defective pressures on Capitol Hill are
due 10 diyerting water from this locality
for the benefit OF the lower land TO the
south. and that defective pressures in the
southeast are due TO fsyortism shown Cap
itol Hill. The report states that during
the week the available head Of water over
nearly the whole low service area was
from ten to twenty feet less than that OF
1897.
a table is given in the report showing
sample low pressures taken during the
storm and compared with prcssures taken
at the same testing points in the year

A CRUSADE AGAINST
BIRD Law VIOLA4ORS
First Arrest Made by the
Local Police.
Offenders Discovered by Expert
Ornithologists.
Severe Penalty Provided for Those
Who Expose Such Game
for Sale.

Through the efforts of the expert Or
nithologists in the employ OF the Smith
sonan Institution and the Department OF
Agriculture the police have been enabled
to discover a Wholesale violation of the
bird law that has been going on for a
long time.
There is one section of the law for the
protection of birds which provides that no
"insectivorous" birds shall be killed with
in the District of Columbia. The law ap-
plies to those birds which destroy the in
sects which would otherwise seriously in
terfere with the growth of plants and
trees. These birds are very valuable to the
farmer, and especially stringent laws were
passed for their protection.
A violation of the law in question means
a heavy fine. The penalty provided is
that any person having in his possession
a dead bird of this description shall be
liable to a fine of 81 for each bird. There
have been hundreds of these little Great
ures exposed for sale in the markets of
this city during the last few months. and
the police have been unable to catch the
parties who sold them.
1t is not known whether the dealers who
have exposed the birds for sale were
aware of the species. but the law on the
subject does not allow for any doubt. 1t
says plainly that every person having in
