"A Woodbury. gentleman whose intel

lack Of hirsute growth on top Of the head,
had an experience last week from which he
derived much amusement. He was in the
parlor of Woodbury. home in converse

called to the door a moment. A little
three-year-old daughter remained to enter
tain the caller, and climbing to the sofa
surveyed him a moment with a look of
great compassion, then said Say, mister,

conversational tone, sympathetic and
attractive. He described briefly the work
the Volunteers were doing as an auxiliary

for the homeless in the great cities and the
alienation of misery and distress in the

This Government Criticised by Ell
TEMPO of Mexico City.
dispatch from Mexico City says: Ell
tacks on the United States comparing the
American Union to a monster with a head
of solid gold, breast and arms of FURNISHED
silver, stomach and muscles of bronze and
feet of the most brittle clay.
FL TEMPO says that race hatred in the
United States is inextinguishable notwith-
standing the promised redemption of the
blacks emancipated by Lincoln; and ne
groes, simply because iney are born with
a black skin, are cast out, beaten, torment
ed and lynched, and are. therefore, in con-
tinual insurrection, prompted by the i'm
placable desire for vengeance.
The United States is compared to ancient
Rome as depicted by the historian Tacitus.
The liberal papers take decidedly more
kindly view toward the United States,
though they regret the absorptionist ten
denotes apparent in the modern foreign poll
icy Of the great republic.
Senator Davis, chairman Of the United
States delegation in the Pan-American
congress. has made an excellent impress
sion by his friendly and frank explanation
Of the true position of the United States
regarding Latin-America. 1t is becoming
known that this is the attitude Of Preside nj

where been marred by serious drawback

which ends tonight can hardly fail to graf
ify even the most critical of Washington
public-spirited citizens.
wherever local betterment seemed pos
sible there has been concerted and insist
ent action of the sort which sooner or later
is bound to win. The greater energy was
expended on Congress, in which body has
been steady and gratifying development or
practical sympathy with all rational plans
for the upbuilding of a national capital OF
whose material and artistic greatness every
civilized being may justly be proud.
THE relations of this board with the
members of the nations legislature have
become more intimate; there is much
clearer understanding as to the ties which
bind the Congress to its home; there is
once so distressingly conspicuous, and evil
dent growth Of that patriotic and liberal
pride without which the central body OF
our government would be cause for Ameri-
can chagrin.
There is promise OF much Improvement
in the immediate future; promise based
upon testimony not easily to be shaken.
Membership conditions are altogether

Estimated deficiency, fiscal year 1902 81 s0l p
AS heretofore shown, this deficiency has
been caused by the entire cost of street sx-
tension being unjustly placed upon the Dis
trict.
Last year when District appropriations
were considered by Congress 1t was pro-
posed to first deduct the deficiency Of last
year from the revenues collected for fiscal
year ending June 80, 1901, and appropriate
balance Of revenues for current expenses
and obligations which, of course. would
have been largely insufficient. The hon.
orable Commissioners, however, made an
earnest and forcihle presentation, which
caused Congress to make an appropriation
for about 81 GOO GEO more for the District
than ever before, all Of which was needed.

+ The board of assessors has continued to
do good work and to fix the assessments on
property for taxation upon sound basis,
all things being considered. Appeals from
their assessments are seldom made, as COM
pared with the old system. An assessment
should be fixed to produce revenue suf1-
cient to meet current municipal expenses,
cost of improvements and other obligations
provided it is not excessive, thereby being
unjust, and of absolute damage to property
interests, and the prosperity Of the city
To assess property too heavily is a species
Of confiscation. That the government needs
funds is no justification for an exorbitant
assessment. Assessment Of property Is a
science, and should be conducted by the
best rule. The present board Of assessors
has proceeded in the discharge of their
duties mainly upon these lines and the re-
suit has been that the assessments in the
District Of Columbia are more thoroughly
equalized, just and proper in all respects
than in any city of the Union.
Water Supply.
The water supply of the District of CO.
lumbia has made most satisfactory adj
vancement since the last annual meeting
The work on the tunnel has been completed
and tested, and the Howard University
reservoir is ready and will be put into SER
vice in less than month. Washington
will then have daily water supply of 76-
OOO0O0 gallons. that DelnS ABOUT 26,0O00O0
gallons more than the present demand
This brings with 1t all the benefits desired
In ten or twelve years, however. 1t is call
culated the demand will equal the supply.
| 1t is not too early, therefore. to prepare for
| the increase that will be required A pre-
| liminary survey for second conduit should
be provided for at once. looking to its con-
struction in ample time. A deficient supply
| of water Is such an injury to health and
comfort that no expense is too great to
| avoid its occurrence.

Diphtheria ana Scarlet Fever.
It is gratifying to state that the preva-
lence Of scarlet fever and diphtheria is great
ly reduced scarlet fever nearly 80 per cent
and t1iphtheria about 33 per cent. The
deaths from pneumonia and typhoid fever
have also materially decreased, while in
creased fatality occurred with grip and
malarial diseases.
A congress on tuberculosis was held in
London in July Of this year. which, the
committee reports, was brought about to
prevent the spread and fatality of con-
SUMPTION There were 1900 delegates. one
half OF whom were foreigners The opinion
Of this congress was that 1T is possible to
control consumption by preventive meas
ures AS this disease far exceeds any other
in the District of Columbia 1t is apparent
that the preventive measures named should
be thoroughly promulgated, and wherever
possible enforced by regulation of the
health department. The death rate In New
| York city since 1855 has been reduced 50
per cent the result of a better knowledge
Of the disease among the people and the
