Cars That Do Not StOD,
To the Editor Of The Evening Star:

To the Editor of The Evening Star:
As publicity Of nuisance Is one of the
ways to effect Its effacement, I appeal to
ths press of this city to come to the rescue
Of the public, and more particularly of the
government clerks, whose name is legion,
in matter which Is affecting their official
records in Office and thereby entailing fu-
ture injury to their prospects of betterment
I refer to the practice of the Metropolitan
Street Railway Company of rushing several
cars by would-be passengers whenever their
line Is not proceeding upon the hard and
fast rules Of their own department. AS
many as three and four cars will deliberate
ly sweep past whole delegations Of people
gathered to board them, and when they
finally do secure a footing-I will not say
seat for that would do violence to fact
they are trailed down town at the tail end
of the other cars and in five instances out
of seven made late for their business en-
Gagements.
More, this method is productive Of no lit
tie danger to the travelling public. On Wed
nesday morning. November p, about the
hour OF $780, several persons grouped to-
ing of indignation and trepfdation three
green cars sail by. Finally, one of their
number, a man.. no doubt, anxious for his
office record" attempted to jump one of
them. In doing so he inadvertently struck
a lady in the face. almost threw thirteen
year-old school girl under the wheels. and
was himself laid sprawling on his back on
thu hard street, with his umbrella a wreck.
This in full sight of every one. and to the
great fright of the conductor, who had just
occaSoned it. ALFRED N. GILES.

FEES EXACTED AT SEANCEs.
Licenses Required of the Parties Con,
Quoting Them.

The attention of the District Commission
ers was invited recently by Mr.. T. D. Had
daway of 1886 + street, to the fact that
license fees had been eXacted of P L. p. A.
keeler and j. A. Altemus for receiving ad-
mission fees to seances held by them Mr.
HSddaway objected to the payment of the
licenses, and the matter was referred ,by
the Commissioners to their attorney. who
reported that in his opinion the license is
required, as the ordinance providing for a
weekly tax for exhibitions has been uhI-
formly held by the assessors office to be
still in force.
The Commissioners fully appreciate the
fact that large numbers of people believe in
these manifestations. and that the subject
matter is of great interest to such people.
The Commissioners also appreciate the fact
that many sincere and well-informed citi-
Zens believe in the genuineness of the
manifestations. Nevertheless, they are con-
fronted by the fact that an act of the late
legislative assembly Of the District re-
Quires that a license shall be obtained for
what are termed exhibitions for gain
Therefore, the Commissioners will, 1t is un
derstood, inform Mr.. Haddaway that they
are Of the opinion that the only RELIEF
which can be had in the premises must
come from congressional action.

Uses For Lemons.

No family should be withoutlemons.
Their uses are almost too many for
enumeration.
The juice of a lemon in hot water
on awakening in the morning is an
excellent liver corrective, and for
stout women is better than any anti.
fat medicine ever invented.
Glycerine and lemon Juice, half and
half, on a bit of absorbent cotton, is
the best thing in the world wherewith
to moisten she lips and tongue OF q
fever. .parched patient.
A dash of lemon juice in plain water
is an excellent tooth wash. 1t not
only removes tartar, but sweetens the
breath.
A teaspoonful of the juice in small
cup of black coffee will almost Ger.
tainly relieve a bilious headache.
The finest of manicure acids is
made by putting a teaspoonful of
lemon juice in cupful of warm water
This removes most stains from the
fingers and nails and loosens the
cuticle more satisfactorily than can
be done by the use of a sharp instru-
ment.
Lemon juice and salt will remove
rust stains from linen without injury
to the fabric. Wet the stains with the
mixture and put the article in the
sun. Two or three applications may
be necessary if the stain is OF long
standing, but the remedy never fails.
Lemon juice (outward application
will allay the irritation caused by the
bites of gnats or flies.
