Last night the braves belonging to the
tribes forming the seven nations packed
up their, wigwams and stole away.
The encampment was unique and pic
turesque and presented an interesting
scene by night and day. The popularity
of the undertaking was manifested by the
large crowds which were in attendance
every afternoon and evening since the
founding OF the village. feature Of the
encampment was the presence Of a band
of real Indians belonging to Seneca tribe
at Eric. n. Y. sssasa.
The management of the encampment
stated last night that the affair was a
success financially and every other way
During the whole time the best of order
was observed. So decided was the success
of the undertaking that 1t has already been
decided to hold another encampment next
year. The Indian village will again be
founded upon the Fourth of July and con-
tinued for a week or ten days.

Will Issue The PERMIT
The Washington Abattoir Company
TO Repair Its Building.
The Application for Rebuilding the
Cold Storage Plant Exhaustively
Considered - Duty of the Com
mixsioners I'm the Premises - Mr..
Nacfnrland States His Views.

The District Commissioners yesterday
reached a decision regarding the issue of a
permit to rebuild the cold storage pant
OF the Washington Abattoir Company,
which was recently partially destroyed by
fre.~The rebuilding of this plant on the
site at the corner of the Anacosia AID
Benning roads has been the subject OF
much discussion since the fire. A petition
signed by about $50 people was handed to
the Commissioners few days after the
fire praying that permit TO rebuild at the
old site be not granted A little later an.
other petition signed by an equal nunlter
OF the residents OF the vicinity asking that
the company be allowed to rebuild their
plant was submitted. At the instance OF
the Commissioners the Police Department
made a report on the question OF the exist
ance OF nuisance in the stream running
from the abattoir, stating that in the
opinion of the officer making the inspection
that such nuisance did exist
The Comm issioners came 10 the conclu-
sion after considerable study OF the sub
ject that the presence OF the abattoir on
the site which II has occupied was
menace to the health Of the commun ty.
and thought that In the interests OF tee
ought to be refused. But at this point in
the consideration Of the question they were
met with the fact that the application for
a permit to rebuild asked oaly for permits
sion TO repair O building which had been
only partially destroyed by fire. The co di-
Tons OF the application conformed In all
respects with the Building Regulat ons an
the Commissioners found that they had 70
>discpetion or authority in the matter, but
that they must issue a permit to the COM
. pany. This was the explicit instructions Of
their Attorney, to whom the matter v as
referfed for an opinion. Although they had
given the subject long consideration with
view to Withholding the permit on SAINT: ry
f, grounds the Commissioners found that
all requirements of the building regula-
lions were complied with and that it was
their duty TO issue the permit.
snowden Ashford, Acting Inspector Of
buildings, in reporting to the Commission
ers on this point, stated that he had per-
sonally inspected the premises and found
that the fire damage was limited TO about
one third of the roof and ceiling joists.
He saiG that II would be necessary to- re-
place the surface floors, but that the walls,
beams. and other structural portions OF
the building were in good condition. and
he gave il as his opinion that the building
was not damaged 10 one-fourth OF Its
value Continuing, Mr.. Ashford said:
ss-<y find that the first permit of record
was issued March 4, 1890, and at that time
the regulations required such buildings to
be 15G yards from the nearest dwelling.
The building was destroyed by fire and re-
: built under permit issued August g. 1884.
and at this time the regulations prohib-
3ted the erection Of such buildings within

THE sTEAMF1TTERs' STRIKE.
Both Sides to the Controversy still
Determined.

Determined.
The second week of the strike OF the
steam and no: water filters and their
helpers for an increase Of wages ended last
night without any concessions being made
either by the workmen OF their employers.
In a letter sent to the Steamfitters' Union
last week the employers stated that it was
not their intention to recognize any OF the
members as union men, but merely as in
dividual workmen. This was taken as final
by the members Of the Union, and there
has been no further communication be-
tween the parties.
The members OF the striking unions who
have been seen stated that they do not
intend to recede from the position they have
taken and unless their demand for an in
crease of wages is conceded the strike will
be continued all winter. The strikers con-
tend that up to yesterday the employers
have been unable TO supply their places
with other workmen. Many steamftters
and helpers, it is admitted, have come
to Washington in response to advertise
ments but when they learned of the trou-
BILE between the union men and their EN-
pioyers the visiting workmen Immediately
returned to their homes. The expenses of
the men who came here in response to ad-
vertisements and who refused to accept
work and returned to their homes were in
every instance. it is said. borne by the local
steamfitters and helpers union.
1t is also stated by prominent members
of the Steamitters' Union that already six
of the largest contractors for steam and
hot water filters work have agreed to pay
the advance in wages demanded, and it is
confidently expected that before the end
of the month all the other firms doing a
large business will also sign a contract
with the local union.
According to the reports from the diff
ferent local labor organizations, nearly
every trades union in the District has en-
dorsed the stand taken by the steamftters
and rendered them their moral and finan-
cial support

with the regulations of the respective
dates
ut is now proposed to replace the dam
aged portion only and not to enlarge or
extend the building. The present applica-
tion is in compliance with existing regu-
lations and recommend that the permit
be issued accordingly"
In transmitting the report OF the in
spector to the Commissioners Capt. ID. ID.
Gaillard, Assistant to the Engineer Com
missioner added that SO far as the build
ing regulations were concerned there was
nothing to prevent the granting Of the
permit asked for. Inasmuch, however, as
there might be reasons based on sanitary
grounds why the permit should not be is
sued, Captain Gailiard suggested that the
matter be placed before the Health Officer
of the District for his opinion.
DIR. Woodward, after examining the sub
iect, reported back to the Commissioners
that the issuance of the permit for re-
pairs would not. in his judgment, interfere
with such action as his department might
hereafter take against the establishment
Cd sanitary grounds. He said that the
persons accepting the permit would take
IL with knowledge that such action is con-
templated.
in commenting upon the matter yester-
day Commissioner Mcfarland said to a
reporter for The Times that it was clearly
the duty of the Commissioners to issue
the permit. He said there was nothing in
the building regulations which authorized
them to withhold a permit for the repairs
on building ON the ground that it might
develop a nuisance. He said the proper
course for the people of Benning to pur-
sue would be TO carry the matter before
the grand Jury II the nuisance complained

Cur New Store.

Marsh & Bidwell opened their splen-
did new store building Wed dnesday
morning and the entire force, with
smiling faces have been busy eversince
accepting the congratulations of their
friends. In fact it is a matter of cou-
graduation for the entire city, for the
building is a credit TO the town. 1t is
large, and we'll lighted, and in every
detail OF finish, not only substantial
and comfortable but artistic as we'll.
All the wood work on the inside is
hard pine and is finished in the nat
ural color. The ceiling is tiling and
is painted a pale green with the bord-
er shade darker, harmonizing with
the gray in which the side walls are
decorated.
One of the chief attraction about
the store is it's splendid lighting,
which is all done from above giving
the most perfect light for displaying
goods and being easy on the eyes of
both customer and salesman. There
are twelve windows in the north AZ X
Sc inches, and thirteen large plate
glass go x 60 on the south, all giving
light from above.
The show windows are unusually we'll
arranged, the large one being 81 x 6
feet. swell plate glass front, with two
small ones on each side.
The store room is 60 feet front and
IS feet deep, divided into three parts
The east side is occupied by the gro
cery and queensware departments. the
centre division by shoes and clothing
and the west side by dry goods, no.
tiOns and ladies ready made goods.
A ware room % X 35 feet with a
driveway between it and the store is
being added at the back. This drive
way will be covered and can be closed
in stormy weather.
Under the entire store is fine cell
lar. stone walled, we'll ventilated and
lighted.
The cash carrying system put in is
something new in town.
The lighting plant is not yet in and
will be of gasoline.
The whole buildin. inside AMI ont
is entirely modern and admirably
equipped for the business.
We extend to the firm our congrat-
uiations and especially to Mr.. e. T
Bidwell on the success he has made
of the new store.

What Helps One Helps All.

William Allen White has preached
a short sermon with the above as a
sort of text. The book '.Kansas and
Her Resource" sent out by the Pass.
enger Department of the Santa Fe
Railway, advertising Kansas, is the
call fog the sermon.
1t was written by our worthy F. D.
Coburn of the State Agricultural Bu-
reau, and that is equivalent to saying
that it is we'll written, and has good
word for Kansas and her unbounded
agricultural and mineral resources.
So let us pass this good work on.
The sermon itself is printed in
pamphlet form and has the jolly good
natured phiz of Mr.. White on the out
side and that is very good sort of
for Kansas for he looks
like the kind of man who practices
what he breaches; the doctrin of help
fulness.
That is what the Sante Fe Railway
is trying to do in spreading the Gosp-
ell of the resources of Kansas and the
advantage of comming here to live,
as Mr.. White says" it will bring mon
ey and men and women and good will
to the state" Let every one help in
the matter for in the words of the "a
foresaid sermo n, "Itis good thing
for Kansas that the chief railway cor
poration in its boundaries isn't afraid
to lend a hand.o

desire to cCrhe here to live where life
holds much promise for them. Here
the man of honesty and energy has a

men that the Santa Fe invites to come
over here and make homes
They may lose their glorious noun
tains wreathed in a mystical, wonder
full light. but in Kansas we can show
them mountains of yellow corn, which
can be turned into dollars.
They may miss the soft, seducti We
skies of their own country. but the
simmer of sunlight is as beautiful
on a Kansas wheat field as on an
Italian olive grove, and the wheat
MAKES such white bread as they never
see in Italy and there is plenty of it.
Our climate is as Salubrious As
theirs, with just Il tonch more variety.
which we could not live without.
So we extend to homeseekers in ad.

New Books.

Among the new locks recently ON
our tabl e OF one has given the de-
light, the Inspiration and the profit
given by "1olstoi Man of Peace. ;,
from the pen of the gifted Alice Il.
Stockholm. OF all the pictures of the
great Russi an not one equals this in
sympathetic insight.
Last year report was widely cir.
culated, and by many believed, that
Tolstoi had given up his labor of
love foI others. and gone back to the
station in life TO which he was born.
Shallow minded people preached many
sermons on the fallacy of living to do
for others.
DR.. Stockholm, who visitsd him,
gives many a radiant picture of his
noble life, which lived in the most
humble simplicity, is transfigured by
a peace that comes from a life lived
for the good of others
She says of his books: ssWhat is
Art is without doubt Tolstui's great.
est production. In one terse sentence
we are shown that all Tolstoi's work
has been worth while for the author
says: Always and always he in
spires even the simplest with new
ideas and a determination to make
life sweeter and better.
In the picture of the fine family life
and devotion given us in the book we
see that Tolstoi exemplifies his ideals
in his own life. His wife is bis true
mate and helpmeet. One can intensely
feel bis enthusiasm, and the thrill of
his GenulEeness. and love as one
reads the authors glowing words con-
ceruing the life and wortk OF the great
Russian. 1t is q book which should be
read 10y everyone who is in sympathy
with the better, higher things in the
fthought of the century.
