Or. l.nesster's Lecture.

Professor Lancaster addressed
good sized audience last Saturday
evening on the subject "Child
Study in the Home" He FIRST
showed the enormous growth OF
the child study movement. A few
years ago DR. G.. Stanley Hall had
an audience OF only twelve persons
among twelve thousand teachers
in attendance at national asso-
citation. Three years later five
thousand wen, TO hear him. A
large club OF Denver ladies is TAX
ing lectures from DR. Lancaster in
this same study The ladies take
notes which are read at the follow
ing meeting and discussed, and on
alternate weeks the ladies have
meetings in groups in which they
discuss pertinent topics and report
home experiences.
The doctor made the point that
child study discovers the children
that are "born short" detectives,
mentally and physically, that are
often driven to ruin, TO criminal
lives by stupid, thoughtless parents
The purpose OF child study is to
make sure the child's destiny, de-
velop its possibilities. give it its
full, natural, complete inheritance,
mentally, morally and spiritually.
A knowledge OF what the child
should be during the different years
OF its growth, shows the parent
what faculties should be stimulated
and which one should be checked.
Study the child's interests and cul-
tivate them while the interest is on
or the opportunity may be gone
forever.
The lecturer gave some sound
advice as to the treatment OF IN
fants during the first weeks OF their
lives. He stated that many child
is started wrong in life and never
is set right. Stuffing the stomach,
tossing and jolting the infant, de-
priving it OF sleep, and SO spoil the
child physically, mentally and
morally and give it tendencies It
may never overcome.
These are only few of the good
things said by DR.. Lancaster dur
ing his lecture. and the ladies Of
the Fortnightly club are to be COM
mended for this admirable course
Of lectures which they are giving
to the people Of L. Junta.

of Importance to the order was transacted.

fine showing, as also did Federal City

DUPLICATE PAYMENTS.
Inquiry Concerning Account Between
Collector of Taxes and District.

The attention of the District Commission
ers has been invited by Mr.. f. G. Timme,
auditor for the State Department, in charge
of the municipal accounts, to the account
between the collector of taxes and the Dis
trict for the fiscal year ended June 10, 1900,
asking for an explanation of the alleged
non-appearance In the account or the
amounts refunded as duplicate payments
1t is claimed that the collector makes no
reference to the amount which by numerous
payments during the year has been refund
ed as duplicate collections Of taxes or for
other reasons.
I'm fact" says Mr. Timme, cit is not
clear to this office how the balance found
due by the collector. which is supposed to
be the total of taxes unsolicited on the va
rious yearly levies, can possibly represent
the correct sum, unless the amounts which
are refunded from time to time are charged
back to their respective levies No reason
is manifest at this writing why these sums
regunded should not appear as much as
other items, certified to as changes In the
list, by the assessor. Without accounting
for these refunded amounts 1T will be easy
to that the entire amount OF any levy
might be collected and turned into the
treasury, and yet, as matter of fact, the
records show numerous taxes on said levy
not paid This office will be glad to have
an early reply, as 1t Is desired TO dispose
of the account as soon as possible"
1t Is understood the matter will be re-
ferred to the collector Of taxes for report
thereon

Conditions There.


Mr.. M S. Ragsdale of DOT F street north
east has received a long letter from his
son. Private Dacy W. Ragsdale of the
United States Hospital Corps, on duty at
the general hospital, Tien Tsin. China At
ter describing the trip from San Francisco
to Nagasaki, and thence to Taku, Private
Ragsdale tells of the journey over thirty
miles of railroad to Tien Tsin. "All along
the line," he declares I'VE could see the
graves of Boxers. The graves are very
Notwithstanding like the prairie dog
houses. They are little round mounds with
some kind of ornament on top. Holes
are not dug in the ground, the bodies being
placed on the surface and then covered
with loose dirt. Lots of the graves are
torn open by wild dogs and the resulting
ravages make a terrible sight. The railroad
is lined with these mounds from one end
to the other.
we passed through the ruins of several
small towns, all having been DESTROYED by
the advancing foreign forces and then de-
serted. Every foot of ground to lien ism
was contested Tien Tsfn was pretty well
destroyed but there still some fine
modern buildings standing. They were a
big surprise to us. We expected nothing
approaching the modern out here. All
Hospital Corps men wear sldearms IN tnls
savage country. They have to for protec-
ton. There is no quarter given on either
side.
Il had the honor of raising the flag over
the first American general hospital in chi
ma, Three days after the Pekin column
left sixty wounded men were brought In
and we had all the work we could attend
to. 1t was sad to see how they were cut
up by bursting shells.
THE climate here is just like it Is in the
states, and there is no rainy season, as al
Manila. United States Consul Ragsdale Is
stationed here. and / had the pleasure of
meeting him yesterday.
