EXPRESSES APPRECIATION.
Inmate of Detention Camp Pleased
with AccOmmO cd a tons There.

One of the largest items Of expense Incl
cost of maintaining guards at infected
premises placed in quarantine by order Of
the health officer, the inmates of which re-
fuse to go to the detention camp. In one
instance 1t became necessary to employ six
men to guard one house Generally the re-
fusal of the inmates of infected houses to
go to the detention camp is due to their be-
lief that the accommodations there are not
such as to either tend to their comfort or to
their safety. 1t Is admitted these accommo-
dations are not first-class in every partic-
ular, but 1t is contended by the health de-
partment that the health OF no one is en-
dangered by going there, and that every
thing possible is done for the comfort Of
every OCCUPANT of 1t. Mr.. Warren s. Yeat-
man. a clerk in the geological survey Of
ice residing at 1442 Q street, where case
of smallpox developed, was taken to the
detention camp the 9th Of last month.
Saturday last Mr., Yeatman addressed a
letter to the health officer, in which he
gives his experience there.

Carroll Institute Won Two Games
From the CnthOlic Club.

The wel-known bowling team from the
Catholic Club of Baltimore one of the strong
est bowling organizations in that city, came
over to Washington Saturday night and
had three-time game with Carroll Insti-
tute. The Washington lads were victorious
in two games in a match that was replete
with excellent playing. There were many
excellent individual strings. Each team
had two men pass. 300. Mr.. Wheeler gave
his customary fine exhibition, playing one
Of the strongest games for the visiting
team. He is one of the most remarkable
bowlers who plays upon District alleys.
None of the other members OF the Balti-
more team played a consistently high score,
though each had one or two excellent
games. The CAROLS played excellently in
the opening game and won easily, letting
down in the second game, but again win
ming. The margin was very close, and but
for Goldsboroughs break the Baltimoreans
would have won. The Institute let down
in the last game and made small total,
while the Catholic Club ran its best string,
winning by over a hundred pins. Cox
played for the Institute in the opening
game, as Brosnan was late in arriving at
the alleys. The scores follow:

FOR AID OF PRISONERS.
Avoidance of Injustice to Alleged
Criminals the Object.


The leading ministers Of the Protestant
Episcopal diocese of washington nave
united with Bishop satterlee in organizing
q prisoners aid department. The move
ment is explained as follows by Kew. Dr
Alexander Mackay-smith:
efforts in behalf Of persons arrested or
confined in the Jail, workhouse, or other
Mace of detention, have been made In this
citv for the past two years, and the per-
sons engaged in it have become fascinated
with the work as it has developed, because
# has come to light that very great inJus-
tice was possible in our police methods, ana
processes Of law, which needed some olsih-
terested inquiry in order to prevent CRIME
and criminal training.
1.-The work presented itself as so merit
orious to the leaders and clergy OF the
Protestant Episcopal Church that they nave
assumed it, and under the auspices OF the
prisoners aid department OF the diocese o.
ssThe facts in the case are these:
cit was thought desirable that an agent
be employed to visit all the police precincts
and the Police Courts OF the Dlstflct uaIiS
to look after the interests, especially or
children and young people arrested LOT the
first time, and if possible bring such 1n1iu-
ence to bear upon them as would lead to
their salvation from HE OF crime. NneH
it is stated that in the workhouse alone
there were some seventy-f1ve young people
when this organization began its labors,
who were shortly entirely removed from
that environment, that every one will ad-
NIT is detrimental to pure and honest lives,
and that since then most young persons
coming into courts are put in the custody
of an agent who has sent to their homes,
in this District and to many states in the
Union and Canada, scores and even hun
dreds of persons. it will at once appear that
this work has it's legitimate field.
Several results are sought:
y11 n r..
tenders from lives of crime.
"2 Saving our government from practic-
ing on comparatively innocent persons rank
Injustice while upholding the full punish
ment for crime.
49, Prevention is our motto. Our or
ganization desires by all means in its pow
er to prevent youth from becoming Grim
inals.
81 1t desires to rescue those who have
taken the first step downward before they
become hardened.
"5 1t returns to their homes youths who
belong in other parts of the country.
"6. 1t extends a helping hand to those
discharged from confinement to aid them to
begin life anew.
'7 1t labors for the separation Of chill
| dren from older and hardened criminals in
police stations, during transportation and
| in all places of confinement, and for the
| complete separation of the sexes during
transportation.

FIRE BREAKS OUT AGAIN,
Embers Among Some Papers Discover

Embers Among Some Papers Discover
 ed in the Cellar.
 About 9:30 last night, hours after every vestige of the Reynolds fire had been apparently extinguished by the fire department, the windows boarded up and covered with show bills, the place dark and forlorn, pedestrian passing the place saw through where was once a window small glow iii the cellar. He rushed immediately to box 20, at the corner of Church and Grown streets, and pulled the box. He was lost in the crowd immediately after ward, and no one knows who he was. The alarm called out engines 1, ?, and z, chemical 1 and trucks 1 and 2. In few minutes there was a whole flock of fire engines, but their presence was not needed and they were ordered back to their stations. The chemical engine remained at the place, and after eXtin- gushing the cause of the alarm the men made a thorough search of the prem ises.
 There was no necessity for an alarm being rung for the fire as it could have been extinguished with a pail of water. Some wrapping paper was found burn ing, but there was no danger, as the thorough wetting everything received in the afternoon prevented the blaze from spreading.

his loss yesterday, but said that every thing would be covered by insurance, which was carried through c. E. Thompson & Sons and Charles Wilson.
 Philip Hugo, eX-director of public works, carried the insurance on the apartments of MT. Scholl and Mrs. Speh, who each had a policy of $500 in the Germania. The flames burst out so furiously in the rear at one time that had the wind been the right way, the barn of MT. Moeller would have caught fire. The people having offices in the First National bank building next door to MT. Reynolds were on the qui vive ready to move at moments notice 1T the flames had continued to spread. One fireman had one of his hands badly cut by broken glass. All sorts of ru- mors of explosions of whisky barrels spread about town while the fire was raging, and many in the big crowd out at the fire kept of their own choice at a respectful distance. The only explosion however, was when the gas ignited in the cellar The police roped off the crowds and kept clear space for the firemen. The prompt and efficient work of the firemen was universally commended.

J. l.. MCLEAN & CO.'S MARKET.

New York, Dec. 26.-The sharp rally which occurred in sugar to-day was not at all surprising or unexpected to best informed operators. As we re- marked 0 five or ten point rally from the closing price of that day would not be at all out of the way. The situ- ation in the sugar trade however is satisfactorily weak, and much lower prices should be seen in the near fu- ture.
 The balance of the stock market holds very strong and there is a con- tinuance of the good buying that has been apparent for a week or ten days past. After the Saturday holidays are over we believe U. S. Com. will soon sell in the 5os Mo. Pac. and Atch. Com. also look particularly well.
 The trade In copper has the appear ance of accumulation but big margins should be kept on this stock.
 Chicago renewed activity, accom- panied by a further sharp advances, was the feature on both corn and wheat to-day, and dollar wheat is be- ing freely predicted
 At any rate, 1t is evident that much higher prices will be seen on this turn than at any other time since the pres ent movement and our advise is hold your grain for higher prices.

DO WE NEED MORE sK1MpoLEs?

We have lost the power of reasoning without mathematical crutch. Amer jeans are indeed calculating people.
 The premise of those who wish to in flame, convince or excite, or move us is that this must be done in no other way than in digits and systems of digits
 Of the cowardice of proverbs as a re- tort Robert Louis Stevenson has feel ingly told us; yet proverbs are brave compared to statistics Once upon a time Git was almost as long ago as that logic, expressed with a fine gar nishing of words, swayed multitudes; proselyted with Paul, aroused the Cru sades, wrought the Reformation ac- complished American independence. The time for this seems to have passed.
 Our government is one of num- bers-for numbers and by numbers. Representation is figured out in nov able ratio. The house of representa- lives is the epitome of the quantitative life. Desiring auto-a analysis we ordain a multitude of governmental inquisi- tions inchease boards of compilation that we may have the last set of fig ures on strikes, cinch bugs, forestry, tuberculosis and sewage disposal States take up and multiply the nation al lust, and municipalities rush to fill up any missing links. In an age to come 1t may be said that Carroll D. Wright was the greatest American of his time.
 Thus does the apotheosis of arithme- tic mark our growing habit. We forget that statistics are the first resort of the ill-informed. They may be of use in the concrete, but there is little beauty in them, and with due respect to the public, the World almanac is not the highest achievement in American lite rature. As a race we need more Har- old Skimpoles. It was delightfully."- un- mathematical, unstatistical blood which did most worth doing of that which has been done. The Greeks attained to passable prominence without the trail of Arabic notation smeared oeross their national life or sullylng conversation in Academe The Elizabethans did much without referring to the decimal sys- tenn And Genesis was written before bers.-Eugene R.

GERMANS CELEBRATE TONIGHT.

Turner's Will Escort Arion Singing So-
 ciety to Turn Hall.
 Tonight will be an interesting one in German circles It is the night of the consolidation of the Arion Singing so- ciety and the Turner's, and the merging of these two societies will be fittingly celebrated. The Turner's, headed by the Second regiment band, will assem- ble at their hall and march to the Arion hall to escort the members of the Arion society to Turn hall, which well ever after be their home. A season of mer- ry-making will follow, and the Arons will be welcomed to their new home with all due ceremony.
 This is the first movement in German circles for the consolidation of all the German societies in the city, and also the first step towards an organized ef- fort to gain strength so that a modern building devoted to the exclusive use of German societies can be erected. Prom inent Germans are very enthusiastic over this step, and the new building is anticipated in the near future. It is recognized that it must come eventu- ally.

THE PLAGUE IN THE MIDDLE
 AGES


 It Is consoling, now we are hearing su much about epidemics and infection, to compare the precautions taken against smallpox with the more unpleasant ones enforced in the Middle Ages For, al- though the Great Plague of 1865 is the one we know most about, not a genera tion passed in the three hundred years preceding it which was not marked by pestilence that carried off about one fifth of the population of London. As long as the poor only were attacked nothing was done; then victims were counted among the rich, and vigorous measures were forthwith taken. All infected houses were closed and any in habitant forced to go out of doors car ried aw hite rod to warn people off. From every pump in the city twelve buckets of water were drawn, three times a week. and poured down the street Good Queen Bess went one bet ter, of course, and set up gallows for the hanging of any citizen who had concealed a case of plague. No doubt, if she still lived, she would hang the conscientious objector instead.-London Chronicle.
