is the influence of the ear that even adults
do not lind 1t easy to keep quite free from
local intonation. Even peers, bishops and
highly educated dignitaries sometimes re-
tain traces of the accent of their native
county; white that of Scotland and Ireland
is yet more persistent. The modern method
of pronouncing English, even by the hest
standards, no doubt lays careless speakers
peculiarly liable to solecisms. Our pronun-
citation has rnouestionably undergone Sc
rlous changes during the last two or three
centuries; and, whatever may once have
been the case, English is now spoken upon
system entirely different from that of the
continental tongues.

Deposit for Refuse.
Andrew Jackson of 31S NJ street south
west has written to the District Commits
sioners, saying that for the past two or
three years he has been piling street
sweepings ON the north bank of the James
Creek canal, north Of Miller's brick yard.

Informed by Inspector Whitaker Of the
health department that he can carry on the

asks that the necessary permit be granted.

states that after the trouble experienced
in having street sweepings removed from
Half street southwest between 1 and K
streets, the removal of (which cost the sur
face division $5S5.51, he would suggest that
a permit be not given to deposit any more
street sweepings at the place mentioned in
the application. nor in any public space
in the city of Washington, and that the ap-
plicant be required within thirty days to
remove the street sweepings already piled
up. He says this would not work hard
ship, for there is plenty of private property
in the vicinity the use of which might be
secured. Street sweepings. he declares, are
entirely out of place in public streets, and
James Creek canal is of itself foul
enough without this added foulness."

SUGGESTED AMENDMENT.
Butchers Association Wants Clause
ADDED to Pure Food Regulations.

The District Commissioners have received
a letter from S. T. Thomas. attorney for
the Retail Butchers Association of the
District requesting that the health -egula-
tons Ito prevent the sale of unwholesome
food in the cities of Washington and
Georgetown be amended by adding the
following:
THAT no person shall sell or offer for
sale in the District of Columbia any sheep
or lamb that has been slaughtered for food
until the pelt head, feet, liver. heart and
lungs thereof have been removed there
from, and any person violating the pro-
visions Of this section shall upon convic-
tion thereof be punished by a fine of not
less than s5 nor more than So for each and
every offense."
Mr.. Thomas says a regulation TO this
effect is both reasonable and necessary I'm
the interest of public health. In Cincinnati
the health department has examined the
question carefully, the attorney says, and
a regulation similar to the one suggested
has been adopted.

A Deseerated Grave.

I found a marble slab. in badly mutilat-

headstone that had once marked the
grave OF Major Parke G. Howle. United

cording to the inscription. 1t seems hardly
proper for the grave of an officer in the

of the national capital, and I ask that the

Deportation of Immigrants-Pntheti
Cases Where the Law Had

Much of the practical routine of the of
fee of the commissioner general of immf-
grafton consists in deciding appeals from
the orders of deportation made at the inn
migrant stations. Every immigrant who is
ordered to be deported is notified that he
has right to make an appeal to the de-
partment from that decision. 1t is only
necessary for him to say: Il appeal from
the decision and the papers in his case
come to Washington for review. Occa-
sionally an intending immigrant will en-
ploy d lawyer to argue his cause, while in
many instances the claim is so weak that
the rejected persons do not bother to ask
for an appeal:

Mrs. Nations Good Work.

Mrs. Carrie Nations crusade with a
Ratchet in Kansas, while condemned by
the liquor sympathizers, has brought
good results where the ordinary way OF
enforcing the law failed. She has been
fined 500 and sentenced to so days i'm
prisonment for disturbing the peace and
dignity of Topeka by a Sunday JOINT
raid last March, Such a sentence is a
disgrace to Judge Ilazen who winked at
the liquor joints and failed to enforce con-
stitutional prohibition. Yet Mrs. Nation
can well afford to be the martyr for the
good she has done.
