Some opticians never advance. bu.
the optical profession as whole has
made proud and useful progress during
the closing year of the nine
teenth century. Old fogyism is
thing of the past. The
ancient code of optical ethics, with its
fixed rules and hide-bound regulations,
is now mOss-covered and obsolete.
Honest and legitimate advertising is
no longer crime, no more crime for
the oDtican than it is for the mere
hant, the manufacturer, or other enter.

makes and not by his ethical standing
If he has long studied and thoroughly
mastered a single line of disease, there
by acquiring knowledge and skill that
would bless and benefit mankind, il
becomes not only his legal privilege,
but his moral duty to say so through
the medium of the press.
Why should he honestly hide
his light under bushel? Why
should we keep from others that which
would make their lives happier? Is
not such a course of conduct a sin OF
omission? On this much mooted ques-
tion in medical circles the greatest and
most popular clergyman of his time
Rev. Henry Ward Beecher, spoke the
words which follow: II am glad thai
the doctor cured him; am glad thai
the doctor put it in the paper that ht

S. Bensinger's junk shop, at 18th and 3
streets northwest, was the scene of dis
astrous fire about O'Clock Saturday night
Because of the large quantity of inf1am-
mable material in the building it was some
time before the work of the firemen was
effe ctive.
The nature of the stock destroyed piles
of paper, rags and other junk, filled the
building with smoke and made the work
extremely difficult. During the progress of
the fire several sections of hose broke, and
the spectators near the breaks We're
drenched. Chief Dutton was on hand and
directed the efforts of the firemen, who
prevented the spreading of the flames to
other buildings, although they were en-
dangered several times.
An arrest was made for driving over the
hose. and the driver of a mail wagon was
also complained against for a similar Of
Tense. Mr.. Bensinger estimates the dam
age to his property at about 5000 which
was only partly insured. The building,
which was owned by l.. d. Winston, was
not badly damaged.

"The Silent City of Alaska
To the Editor of The Evening Star:


was much interested in reading the ar
ticle contained in last Saturdays Star clip
ped from the London Mail concerning the
Alaska strange mirage, or, as it is referred
to, the ''Silent City of Alaska 1t may
be interesting to note that this article in
the London Mail appears to be an ampli-
fled production taken from the English
publication Invention" and concerning
which quite little has been written by
the editor of the British Journal of Pho
tography.' 1t appears that In some circles
in Great Britain the theory that this won
derful mirage is a reproduction of the an
cfent city OF Bristol, England, was con-
sidered long ago to have been fully ex-
posed and laid to rest. Permit me to quote
from the British Journal Of Photography
Of February, 1901:
1T is little over seven years ago that
a 12x10 photograph was placed in our
hands by prominent spiritualist, who had
received 1t from a confrere just arrived
here from America. The view was that of
hence. and in the printing an effect of
mistiness had been impaired to 1t. The
print was entitled The Silent City of Alas
ka,' and we were asked to believe that it
city visible at Glacier bay. Unfortunately
for this fairy-like idea, some two or three
days before the photograph was shown to
us we had returned from a visit to Bristol,
which we had no difficulty in persuading
our friend was the original Of The Silent
CITY, Instantly the pen was taken and the
print labeled as fraudulent. The impudent
imposture bore the name of an American
photographer. Rather more than two years
ago Mr. w. H. Mfdwinter, the well-known
Bristol photographer. communicated with
us on the subject of the alleged photo
graph Of the aerial city, sent US a print
from one Of his own negatives of the nj
rated view and supplied us with many In
teresting details relating to the Silent
City imposture. Mr.. Midwinter pointed
out that the mirage picture was Q copy Of

ALL ABOUT A HORSE.
Mr.. GatcheIl Tried Him and Was Ar


The case against j. Fred. Gatchell, who
was arrested yesterday ard charged with
grand larceny, because he kept too long
horse which he was trying with the inten-
ton of purchasing, was nolle pressed be-
fore it came to trial in the Police Court
this morning. Mr.. Gatchell now intends to
have his accuser stand suit for damages,
and has put the case in the hands of an
attorney.
Some days ago, Mr.. Gatchell says, he al-
vertised for horse, with the specification
that it must be gentle and suitable for
lady to drive. On Saturday about noon, ac
cording to Mr. Gatchcll's statement, Moses
SinsheiIner. manager of the Sinshemer
Livery Company, drove to his place of bus
mess in a handsome trap, to which was
hitched horse which the livery man
wished to sell Mr. Gatchcll in answer to
his advertisement. The horse was the
property of John A. Barnes of 4S2 Pennsyl-
vania avenue. Mr.. Gatchell was busy at
the time, and told Mr.. Sinsheimer he should
like to try the horse later, but that he
would not buy the animal until his wife
had seen it, as she was the one who would
use it. With this understanding, Mr.
Gatchell says, the horse was left in front
of the tailoring establishment.
Mr. Gatcheli lives on the Tenleytown
road and it vas 6 O'Clock when he had
come to the conclusion he would buy the
horse. At that time he telephoned the liv-
cry company. He says that Mr. Snsheimer
answered the phone, and in a very irate
manner commanded that the horse and
vehicle be sent to police station No. 8, and
stated that he had put the detectives after
the outfit. Mr.. GatcheI answered that he
had decided to puy the horse but would
send 1t as directed. This he did, and saws
he intended coming to the city Sunday
morning to see what the trouble was Be
fore he was up however, Sunday morning
he was placed under arrest at his home
charged with grand larceny, and spent two
hours in the witness room of the third pre-
cinct station before he could secure bond
In the sum of 500.
After the disposal of his case this morn
ing Mr.. Gatchell says he hardly thinks he
will now buy the horse. He is still at a
loss to understand the conduct of the liy-
cry man.
Mr.. Moses Sinsheimer stated to a Star re-
porter today that he had Mr.. Gatchell ar
| rested because the latter had not kept his
word about the horse. THE understanding
was.' he said, that was to get either the
rig or the money for 1t at 3 O'Clock. When
that time came 1 went to Mr.. Catcher q
place of business and was told that Mr.,
Gatcheli had not returned 1 sent to
the place every hour after that until :
O'Clock, and then turned the matter over
to the police" Mr.. Sinsheimer said the
outfit did not belong to him. and he did mt
want to take the responsibility or run a

He Says the Washington Precedent
Was Forced on Him.

In an interview in Cincinnati Represen-
tative Charles H. Grosvenor of Ohio said
regarding the question of a third term for
President Mckinley: There has been no
time in our history when conditions would
so justify the election Of a President to a
third term as in the case of Mckinley.
Mckinley is personally the most popu-
lar President we have had In long time,
and he has certainly most credtably per-
formed the duties Of his high office.
think it is time, furthermore to demolish
the fiction that there is unwritten law,
established by Washington, that no Presi-
dent of the United States may accept a
third term. The facts are, as any student
of the times may discover, that it was fear
of defeat which impelled Washington to
decline a third nomination. Being a fed
eralist he was the object of very violent
attacks on the part of the democrats of
his day, and, recognizing the growing
strength Of his opponents, he doubted, as
l believe, his ability to again secure an
election if he should run

AID FOR BoER REcoNCENTRADoEs

Rev. Won Ocl<hufzen Says Their Con-
dftion is DeplOrable.
The Rev. II. D. Won Brockhuizen Of Pre-
toria South Africa the minister who closed
the volksraad with prayer after President
Kruger's ultimatum had been read to that
body, is in New York city. His brother,
DR.. H. ]. Won Brockhuizen Of the Orange
Free State who served in the Boer armies,
accompanied him. Their mission in this
country is to raise money for the Boer wo-
men and children now in refugee camps.
Rev Dr. Won Brockhuizen said In an in
terview:
Our women and children, who are at
present concentrated in camps established
by the British, are in a horrible condition.
1t was bad enough when | left South Afr1-
ca but know from letters that have re-
ceived-one only the other day from my sis
ter-that it is hundred times worse now.
When the doctor left South Africa, he
SAYS he was virtually banished by order
of General Maxwell, military governor of
Pretoria.
, DR.. Won Brockhuizen said further Of the
camps:
I'm an official report made by Dr. Ronald
P. Mckenzie of the British army on Feb
ruary Is of this year the British govern
ment is notified that the conditions are
horrible. the death rate appalling and the
food furnished unfit to eat"
The Afrikanders. Rev. DR.. Won Brock
huizen AYERS, will never be overcome, and
all reports to the contrary are false. The
Boer army numbers 5000 to 1900 men,
and is constantly being augmented by Cape
Colony Beers. The Boer forces are now
armed with Lee-Metford rifles, he says,
and they have tons of ammunition buried
which they can use at any time against

deter them from undertaking scientific
