flag But let me say that regardless of this
question. that wherever the flag flies there
will be Yale mdn to fight for 1t and uphold
It, and that wherever the Constitution ex-
tends there Will be Yale men to see that s.s
provisions are carried out"
Mr.. Dalzell concluded by offering the fol-
lowing toast t0t Yale, which was drunk
amid riot Of cheers:
For YALE old lYae, come join the cheers
That ring from age to age.

Our goodly heritage.
The scepter's might shall wax and wane,
The kingly Cheek shall pale,
But deep within the hearts of men
Shall live the name of Yale, Yale, Yale.

Monthly Meeting of Directors of Local
Association.
The regular monthly meeting of the board
of directors of the Aid Association for the
Blind of the District of Columbia was held
at 915 E street. Monday afternoon, Febru.
airy f. A large number Of members was
present. Reports were heard from the
house, admission, ways and means commit.
tees, respectively, and from the commit
tee on industries.
The health of all in the house was re-
ported to be good. Two new inmates were
admitted, two entertainments had been
given in January, an anniversary reception
at the home, January 49, to celebrate the
opening Of the home one year previous,
and q matinee concert, January 80, at The
Columbia Theater.
The Industrial department showed adj
vance, and constant orders coming In for
brooms, mattress work and chair Gaming.
Five men and one woman are at work in the
shop, one new apprentice coming In during
January. The lack Of machinery and other
equipment retards the progress of this de-
partment, 1t is said, which is vital to the
well-being and happiness of all the blind
1t was decided to have entertainments
daily at the home to brighten and break
the monotony of the life there. Readings
will be held three afternoons and three
evenings each week, with music sometimes

ABOUT POLES AND WIRES.
Report on Establis hme of Electrical
Lighting Service.

Report on Establis hment OF Electrical
Lighting Service.
Mr. Walter c. Allen, the District cleo
trical engineer, reporting to the Commis-
sioners upon the establishment of electric
lights on Connecticut avenue extended,
states that the fifty-three lights ordered by
the Commissioners to be erected on October
10, 1900, have not yet been established,
failure to do so being due to the refusal
of the Capital Traction Company to permit
the use of their trolley poles for attaching
the necessary wires and lamp fixtures, and
to the sentiment existing against the erec-
ton of an additional line Of poles.
There is an item in the appropriation bill
for the fiscal year 1902 for $2l, 500 for paw
ing Cincinnati street and Connecticut ave-
nue., in view Of which Mr.. Allen thinks, 1t
would be undesirable to erect poles and
wire where this Improvement Is TO 'e
made. ~
1T may be possible" he says. Ito ar
range for the extension of gas mains TO
cover this section of the avenue, in which
case Welsbach lamps would be maintained
after July l, 1901. The officials of the gas
company are not able to state at present
whether the mains can be extended. but
am confident that 1t can be arranged OF
the fifty-three incandescent lamps ordered
erected, twelve are to be placed between
Rock creek and Cathedral avenue. If gas
is to be used however, / would suggest
an increase in the number to secure q more
uniform distribution of the light.
IF, however, in the judgment Of the
Commissioners, 1t Is necessary that the IN
candescent lights be established, l would
recommend that permission be granted the
Potomac Electric Power Company to erect
the necessary poles and wires. If this
course is not approved, 1 would recon-
mend that this department be authorized to
expend the money now being save1 for the
maintenance of these lights in extending
Ia~
of the District where additional Tampa are
urgently needed"

To the Editor Of The Evening Star:
An act OF Congress approved March 8,
1897 contains this provision:
ut is hereby declared to be the policy
of the government of the United States to
make no appropriation of money or prop
erty for the purpose of founding, maintain
Ing or aiding by payment for services, ex-
penses, or otherwise, any church or re-
ligious denomination, or any institution or
society which is under sectarian or &C.
clesiastical control; and 1t is hereby en-
acted that from and after the Both day Of
June 1893, no money appropriated for
charitable purposes in the District Of Co
lumbia shall be paid to any church or re-
Ugious denomination. or to any institution
or society which is under sectarian or &C.
clesiastical controls'-United States statutes
at large, Vol. 20, page 6S3.
The use of sectarian hymnals or other
religious books, in the public schools makes
the schools religious institutions to that
extent which is a violation of the spirit,
If not the letter of the law. Many friends
of the new board of education hope that
the curriculum of the schools will be kept
free from sectarianism in every particular.
That seems to be the only way to avoid
giving offense

RECEIVERS APPOINTED.
Controversy Regarding the Manage
ment of Hotel Barton.

An order was signed late yesterday after
noon by Justice Bradley in Equity Court
No. appointing James r. keenan, and
Smith Thompson, jr-. receivers, to take
charge of and manage temporarily the Ho-
tel Barton, formerly known as Welcker's
and as the Wellington, at 125 18th street,
just north Of New York avenue. The hos
telry was reopened as the Barton only re-
Gently. 1t Is further provided in the order
of the court that James Barton Key show
cause the 18th instant why he shall not be
required to render an accounting.
The signing of the order of the court
was based on the filing Of a bill in equity
by James P. Scott, naming ]. Barton Key
defendant. Mr.. Scott seeks an accounting
the specific performance of an agreement
and other relief. According to the bill,
Mr.. Key early last November represented
to Mr. Scott that he was about to en-
bark in the hotel business, and applied to
Mr. Scott for assistance in the enterprise,
stating that he was able to secure a lease
of desirable premises; that in view of the
representations made Mr.. Scott advanced
5000. and the property was leased for
five years at $500 per year Mr.. Scott
becoming surety.
Since the hotel was opened, according to
Mr.. Scott. the employees have been unable
to get their wages and are clamoring for
payment. The entrance to the building
is said to be INSTRUCTED by creditors seek
ing payment Of bills. and the business is
being constantly interrupted by persons
threatening legal proceedings. 1t is stat
ed that Mr.. Key has left the city and is
in Ill health. Attorneys F. D McKenney
and ]. S. Flannery represent the COM
plainant.
Soon after the order in the equity case
had been signed a proceeding was insti-
tuted on the law side Of the court by the
firm Of J. G. Valiant & Co. against James
P Scott as surety for ]. Barton Key. An
attachment was asked for and granted on
q claim of So 0GS19. with interest from
January %, 1901, said to be due the
plaintiffs from ]. Barton Key. Attorney
E. H. Thomas appears for the plaintiffs
When deputy marshal arrived at the
hotel to serve the attachment he found
the receivers N charge.
Suit at law to recover $3,O6S 10, alleged
to be due on an account, has also been
filed by ]. G. Valiant & Co. against ]. Bar
ton Key

through Attorney Smith Thompson, jr.,

Vice In the Philippines.
the Editor of The Evening Star:


Not only does H. c. Adams sound the
alarm against the terrible seductive condi-
tons prevalent and sanctioned by officers
in the Philippines. but be voices the SEN
timent of thousands Of mothers. whose daily
PRAYER Is for the keeping of her son, and
he also exposes clearly and forcibly the
immediate and demoralizing influences
thrust upon so many of our young men
who have sacrificed Christian homes aud
environments for service in behalf Of their
flag and country. A precedent has been
established. and such deplorable conditions
should Immediately be suppressed and
eliminated, not only for the good of the
service, but for the saving Of the young
soldiers now in the keeping Of men APP
pointed by the government. Prostitution
ia a sin. and a sin Of the most unpa:dnn-
able kind, and as such, steps should he
taken to enforce laws against such open
SHINING made justifable as a military ne
cessity by official sanction.
