always to be perfectly honest with his
hIiI1uren.
MY son, y" he accordingly observed,

In the face of such a luminous exam
pie it would be strange if a boy did not
grow up to be an honest man.
1t was perhaps possible to overdo this
thing end render boy so honest that
he would be unable to earn his living
in any of the learned professions, but
that difficulty, if it existed at all, was

HOW a BULLET TRAVELS.
Lessons the Soldier II Taugh< In
Learning How to shoot.

Lessons the Soldier II Taug114 In
Learning How to shoot.
The soldier is taught that the bullet
travels through the air in curved line
called the trajectory, and that three
forces act upon it-frst, the exploded
charge, tending &. drive it forward In
a straight line along the line Of fire;
second, the force Of gravity, and, third,
the air resistance. At 200 yards, owing
| to these forces, the bullet, travelling at
the rate Of 1900 feet a second, will
have fallen about two feet. In the ex-
| element Of firing at close quarters the
aim will invariably be too high.
1t has been calculated that when the
enemy approaches within $50 yards the
soldiers will instinctively fire as much
as two feet or three feet above their
heads. Now, it has been found by ex-
pertinent that the fact of fixing bay
! onets will cause the bullet to drop a
distance of about 2h feet in $50 yards,
and therefore when about this distance
from the enemy soldiers are instructed
| to fix bayonets, in order to counterfeit
the excessive elevation of their aim.
The recruit learns that the mean ex-
IRENE range of the bullet is 8, 500 yards,
and that the longest shot ever observed
was 8, 700 yards. He is taught the pene-
trating power of his weapon, subject
full of interest To take one or two ex-
amples, rammed earth gives less pro-
lection than loose; bullets easily find
their way through joints of walls, while
a concentrated fire Of about 100 rounds
at 900 yards will breach a nine inch
brick wall s~.... Il. Is
Only experience can teach soldier
how much he must aim to the right or
left Of his mark to counterfeit the force
Of the wind. A side wind has more
effect on the flight Of the bullet than a
wind blowing directly toward the frer.
The soldier must learn the habits of his
rifle, since some shoot higher or lower
than Others. Every rife, like every
marksman, has it's own Individuality

AN INCIDENT IN HAITI,

most desirable as friends. Then the
white men who are living there, as
have already mentioned, are characters.
If they take a liking to you, all they
have or can capture is yours. The fol-
lowing will illustrate this character
istic:
Mine host and a friend were walking
through the leading thoroughfare Of
one Of the towns when the friend sud-
denly came to standstill and, placing
his long nervous index finger on mine
hosts breast, remarked:
"My dear boy, in here they make the
best cocktails in Haiti. I have spent
three fortunes in assuring myself Of the
truth Of this. Let's go in and try one !"
There was a prompt adjournment
from the pathwalk to the interior of
the building, few minutes of delight
full, expectant silence as the ingredients
were shaken together, a mutual bow,
followed by disappearance of the iq-
uids.
Friend-How do you like that2

TO Stop Nosebleed.

To stop nosebleed cut some blot
ting paper about an inch square, roll it
about the size of a lead pencil and put
it up the nostril that is bleeding. The
hollow in it will fill the space between
the tube and the nose and will very
soon coagulate and thereby stop the
flow Of blood.-New York Times.

LIFE AND LOVE.
True love Is Of birth sublime:
It knows not space, it knows not timss
1t has guerdon from above,
For love is life, and life is love-

tst True love IS OF q O1rth SuDl1n1es
It knows not space, it knows not timos
It has guerdon from above,
For love is life, and life is love-
You, with your dangered gift of scorn,
Would seek to make true love foriorn;
Yet know whereer your wish may rove
That love is life, and life is love.
You faunt new loves before my eyes,
I note them with scant surprise;
You cannot spoil the treasure trove
That love is life, and life is love.
We mortals are compact of change,
We have thought of wondrous range
- For boy and girl for man and wife,
Yet life is love, and love is life.
LIST well to judge by human skill
What warrant serves true love to kill?
1t stands, through all your nescient strife,
That life is love, and love is lie.
I match remembrance with your word
The truth may pierce you like sword,
The truth may be keen edged knife,
Yet life is love, and love is life. -.5
False love is like the winding sheet
Figured in and binding sleet;
The shelter whence you dare not move
Is-love is life, and life is love.

Smith, the former big center Of the Orange
Athletic Club eleven, who will coach the
men until the arrival of Will Church of
Princeton, who is expected to reach the
city tomorrow and Immediately enter upon
his duties.
Two elevens were formed yesterday, one
under Capt. Carlos Long, and the other
under one of the candidates. No efforts
were made to pick out the best men for one
particular side The players were evenly
distributed and the sides were about evel4ly
matched, neither team being able to score
d touchdown in the time devoted to prdc-
ice. The playing was lively and shai p, and

PLAN FOR WIDENING AVENUE.
Meeting of Interested Citizens nj
BrightWOod Hall.

BrightwOod Hall.
well-attended meeting was held at
Brightwood Hall last evening, called by
Louis P. Shoemaker, president of the
Br.ghtwood Avenue Citizens Association.
The attendance was confined to those who
owned property on Brightwood avenue.
The object of the meeting was to formulate
some plan for widening that avenue SO that
the views of the people should be made
known to the District Commissioners. The
actual necessity for attention to this mat
ter is said to be very apparent. in view Of
the placing of the street car tracks in the
center of the thoroughfare. Mr. Shoe
maker called the meeting to order and
made a statement, not only with reference
to the widening of Brtghtwood avenue, but
as to the necessity of opening up 14th
street, in order to provide this section of
the District with absolutely necessary street
facilities, the congested condition of travel
at present upon 18th street road and
Brightwood avenue being such as to make
II very dangerous to the travelling public
Mr.. Shoemaker also spoke of the rapid
growth of the city in the direction of
Brightwood as evidencing the needed at
tentlon to these matters. At his SuggeS-
ton Mr.. Blair Lee was requested to act
as permanent chairman. Upon assuming
this position Mr.. Lee made very interest
ing statement covering the object of the
meeting. DR.. c. G. Stone also spoke at
length. The meeting developed the fact
that the majority of the property owners,
perhaps 80 per cent, are willing to donate
portion of their property for the pur-
pose of widening Brightwood avenue pro-
vided the Commissioners will lay footways
on either side of the street and plant shade
trees.
DR.. Charles G. Stone was elected vice
president and Prof. Na,ley, principal of the
Brightwood school, was chosen as secre-
fary. The meeting adjourned to meet next
r rlday evening. when additional informa-
ton will have been obtained and submitted
for consideration

With the appearance of Coach Church
the candidates will start on the training
table. The table will probably commence
tomorrow, though it Is likely that this may
be postponed until Monday. Frank Smith
will remain at Georgetown until next Fri
day. when he leaves for Pittsburg, where
he will play right guard on the eleven of
the DuQuesne Athletic Club. Next week
the players will be put through a hard
course of work. which will practically con-
tinue the entire season.
The first game of the Georgetown team
will be played Saturday. October IA,
with the eleven from the Naval Acauemy.
The game will be played at Annapolis.
The first game on Georgetown campus will
be Wednesday, October 10. when the team
from the Maryland Agricultural College
will be the opponents. On account of the
present condition of the Georgetown play
erS 1t Is hardly likely that any games will
be played earlier than the dates mentioned
above. The Thanksgiving day game will
be played at Georgetown with the eleven
from the Virginia Military Institute. the
team that gave the Georgetown eleven of
last year such close game
AT present there are over thirty candi-
dates for the team, the largest number
since foot ball has been played at the COL
lege, and more than this number of candi-
dates Is expected by the latter part Of
next week. The candidates and the differ
ent positions are as follows: Full back.
O'Gorman and Horsey; half backs. l..ce.

DISTRICT ROWLING LEAGUE.
Officers Elected and Reorganization
Effected.


Bowlers from all over the city gathered
at the Business Mems Club in South Wash
ington last night and completed the reor-
ganization of the District Bowling League.
Six clubs were represented. as follows: Car
roll Institute. Washington Saengerbund.
Business Mems Bowling Club. Columbia
Bowling Club. Young Mems Christian As
ISOLATION and the Golden Eagle Club.
Mr.. H. c. c. Stiles was reelected presi-
dent: Mr.. George T. Cox. vice president;
Mr.. w. s. Davenport. secretary. and Mr..
Fred. c. Schlaich. treasurer and official
scorer. Various committees were selected
and the detail work of the organization as
signed to them. The next meeting will be
held at the Saengerbund October II. and
at that time 1t Is expected that the sched-
ule will be ready for discussion. and that
all of the other committees will be ready
to report. A season OF sixty games will he
played. starting about November l and
continuing until April.
1t Is considered likely that this will be
the most successful season in the league S
history. The District League has always
been considered a model, on account of its
complete rules and the absence of profess
sionalism. as well as on account of the ex-
pertness Of the players which have taken
part in its games. The Washington scores
have always been high in comparison with
those of other places, and in inter-city
matches the Washington men have always
come out creditably. A noticeable instance
of this was in the match at Baltimore last
February when the District league PLAYERS
won nine of eleven games. Bowling is fast
becoming leader among winter games.
and under the direction Of the men prom-
nently identified with 1t here a noteworthy
series will soon be entered upon.

sity that Columbia road from 18th street
to 14th street should be widened and paved
and that 18th street through Meridian
Hill and Lanier Heights to Grant or Park

taxpayers deprived of their share of pub
