LOCAL CABBIES WANT
TO ADVANCE RATES

Judge Scott, of the Police Court, more
than year ago. in the case of the Dis
trict of Columbia against James Smith
Since this decision the drivers OF other
public vehicles have enjoyed equal privi-
leges with those of the company. and the
stand has been maintained in the same
manner as have all other stands.
Solicit on Company Property.
Inside the depot, upon property wholly
controlled by the company, the employees
do solicit patronage for the caOs oper-
ated by the company, but no unnecessary
noise is made. and l do not know Of any
law to prevent this practice. The en-
forcement at the depots of the police
regulation prohibiting soliciting Of patron
age by the drivers of public vehicles has
brought quiet and good order in place OF
a very noisy, disorderly demonstration
which before greeted every passenger
that appeared. and | have been informed
by many drivers that they get as many
jobs as they did before. and that they are
glad the regulation is being enforced
The Commissioners have as yet taken
no action with regard to the proposed in
crease in the cab rates.

MANUAL TRAINING SUPPLIES.
General BOynton Asks for n Ruling
Regarding Their Purchase.

| Gen. II. V. Boynton, president of the
Board of Education, has transmitted to
the District Commissioners a letter from
Prof. A T. Stuart Superintendent of
Schools. with reference TO the purchase
of books and apparatus for the two new
manual training schools. General Boyp-
ton asks the Commissioners to obtain
from the Comptroller of the Treasury n
ruling on the questions raised by Super
intendent Stuart relative to the expendi-
ture.
1t appears that the appropriation act
for the current year carries an item
of $4,000 for furniture and equipment for
Manual Training School No. /, and s37,-
600 for School No. 2 for the same purpose.
and Mr.. Stuart desires to know whether
the apparatus is to be purchased out OF
these appropriations or whether the nee
essary books of reference must be pur-
chased from the contingent fund. Super
intendent Stuart writes:
The principals of these schools de-
sire to purchase as an essent\I part of
the equipment of these schools a large
number of reference books, technical in
in the various departments of manual
training.
1T was the intention of the Beard of
Education in asking for this amount to
make special provision for necessary
technical books under the head of equip
ment, it being understood that the con-
tingent fund was not large enough to be
used fer this purpose. although books of
reference are specially named in that
fund
I'm fact the term equipment was de-
signed to provide everything in the line
of machinery, apparatus, books. etc, that
might be necessary to put these schools
in working order. If after special pro-
vision has been made by Congress for
this purpose any considerable part OF the
equipment must be purchased from the
contingent fund, the purpose of the appro-
priation will be therefore defeated, and
the contingent fund materially crippled.
In this case the books cannot be bought
at all if their cost Is TO be charged to the
contingent fund. as that fund will barely
suffice for current needs"

APPEAL TO THE COMMISSIONERS

&. to pay Go to So cents bushel for oats and
$3.50 to $4.25 barrel for corn, with no in
crease in the carriage rate"
Mr.. Thomas says that n bill has been
prepared by the Hack Inspector. and ap-
proved by Major Sylvester, which provides
a fair rate. and he says all that has been
wanting is some action by the Commission
ers which he hopes they will grant the
drivers and owners of teams.

And the land like pale mourner grievesi
But the garden of memory Is blooming to-day
With flowers and leaves ever new,
And the birds and the brcezes around Il that play
Remind me. dear mother. of you.
Like gray shores receding beyond the blue seas
Seem the years by your tenderness blest
and youths merry music grows faint on the
breeze
That Is waiting me on to hfe's west;
Yet beautiful seems the mild glance of yoor eye
And the blessings your fond spirit gave,
As the mist OF the valley hangs bright In the SKY
Though the mountains are lost In the wave.
wonder sometimes IL the souls that have Town
Return to the mourners again,
And ask for sign from the traekless unknown
Where millions have questionedin vain.
l see not your meek loving face through the
strife
That would blind me with doubting and fear,
But voice whispers, pause, to the tumuli of
life,
And know that my mother Is near
The cold word may slight aud meet me with
frowns
Or mingle with bitter each joy.
II may load me with crosses and rob me OF
crowns,
have treasures they cannot destroy.
There's green sunny isle in the depths Of my
soul
Whose roses the winds never strew,
And the pillows and bree zcs around 1t that roll
isring tidings, dear mother, of you.
