INFLUENCE ON BUSINESS.
Change in Weather Increases Patron

The change in che weather today as COM
pared with yesterday had an influence on
the volume of business done in the city, es-
pecia1ly in the retail stores. While the tie
up in the street railroads was as complete
todar as it was yesterday, yet, owing to
the sun shining brightly and the outlook
more attractive, a great many people tired
of the enforced Imprisonment in their
homes for the past day or two, ventured out
and even walked down to the business CEN

AS result more people We're seen on the
streets, and the thoroughfares did not pre-

noticeable yesterday. The stores were as a
rule all open today, and business was going
on much as usual, with, of course, a great
iy reduced volume of business. In many of
the larger stores, and in proportion the
SAME was true of the smaller establish

to the lack of facilities of comrnunica ton
1t was impossible for many of the clerks to
reach the places of business. However,

HIS SNOW SHOES RUCKED.
Amusing Predicament of an Exploring
Scientist in Dupont Circle.

One of the scientists connected with the
National Museum, who is a prominent
member of the National Geographic So
ciety and a traveller of much distinction,
had rather exciting experience this morn
ing. He lives out in the northwest sect ton
on one of the streets running across Con-
necticut avenue beyond Dupont circle He
prides himself so upon his imperviousness
to the elements that he never wears an
overcoat, and depends upon his blonde
whiskers to keep his throat warm

dence was a pair of snow shoes of the APP

acter. The professor determined TO make
his way to office these contriyanreS

fixing the shoes he started out. Reaching
Connecticut avenue he took the AIetropoli-
tan car tracks like the rest of the pedes-
TRANS, but when Dupont circle was gotten
to he scorned circling around ii and
started across the drifts. As soon as he
got we'll inside the circle the snow shoes
began to buck like a pair of bronchos.
FINALLY one of the unruly things few up
and struck the explorer in the back of the
neck and down he went in the drift. With
the exception of his extremities he was
buried, but these waving like danger sig
mails attracted attention, and passersby on
ordinary shoes waded in and pulled him
out Nothing, daunted. but with SNOW
whitening his ruddy whiskerets, the scien-
fist struck the wagon track down Massa-
chusetts avenue, and the snow shoes were
still bucking when his deliverers lost him
to sight.

Teeth Cared for by the City,

the seat of a university, has just taken
action which Commercial Agent Stern, at

United States. In accordance with this
action, the teeth of the poor pupils of the
public schools of Wurzburg are to be ex-
am!nsd and cared for, free of cost, provided
parents give their consent The COM

treat diseases of the ear aud throat in a
like manner, should the teeth experiment
prove successful.

and girls are held in confinement. Latter

have been greatly improved, and a matron

family accepted at first, these officers have
won an estimation of great Importance
among the city officials. Within the last
two legislative years the councils energies
went out in the direction of legislation. 1t
presented several carefully prepared bills TO
the state legislature. It's bill for compul-
sorry education was taken by the city su-
perintendent of education, Mr. Goss, for
the basis of his work, and was also taken
by the chairman of the education commit
tee in the senate and thus appears in the
bill that was finally passed by the legisla-
ture. The council has been active in urg-
ing the American curfeW law upon the CITY
council. and yet many important measures
are pending before the county commission
ers, legislature, police judges and mayors
upon Which favorable action Is anticipated.
1T believes that all benevolent and penal
work should be educational and of a re-

that more attention be paid to personal

After the business meeting the presidents
address was read.
She said in part:
The attention of the public and of our
selves can never too often be emphasized
upon that feature of the council which
differentates it from all other organiZa-
tons, namely, that it is the purpose of the
council to bring together, not individuals on
the basis of common aims and common
principles, but organizations whose aims
and methods are essentially different, and
may, indeed. as far as their fitness to
unite in the council is concerned, be eS-
sentially antagonistic.
The history of philanthropy and reform
shows that the charge of one-sidedness
has often been justly brought to bear
against these organized agencies for the
Improvement of human society. Every ma
uonal organization which is a member of
the council Is conscious of having eXpe-
rlenced an expansion of sympathy and an
access of intelligence through its council
relationship.
The last four years have been charac
teriZed by the growing SenSitiVeneSS to the
prevailing defects in American municipal
organization and management. Since our
last trienniai the National Municipal
League for the Improvement of local gov
eminent has been organized The same in
fuences which brought the league into
being have caused intelligent women living
In American cities to feel the condition of
munlclpai life direct appeal to their own
consciences Sensitive the average
mans conscience is to personal wrong, even
a superior woman needs practical
awakening to cure her of the obtuseness to
Official organized public wrong.
