j. C. Bancroft DaUis' Retirement.

Philadelphia Inquirer-Mr- Davis has
been active in many walks Of life, but
nothing that he has done brought him
greater honor than his conduct Of the
Alabama claims case before the joint
high commission at Geneva. The task
was the harder because there was no
precedent IN the case, and the court was
Obliged TO rely upon the principles
agreed upon beforehand between the
contending parties. At the last moment
the British government almost refused
to appear, but finally agreed 10 the civ
iIized way Of settling disputes, though
she lost in the end and her commissioner
would not sign the award. Mr.. Davis
did enormous service 10 the country at
this time. and has since served in di-
pIomacy. on the bench and elsewhere
and always with the highest credit.

PUBLIC PARK AT LANGDoN.
Commissioners Make Report on House
Bill 1868.

The District Commissioners today sent to
Representative David H. Mercer a response
to his request Of the 10Th instant for re-
port on House bill 1868, providing for the
establishment Of public park at Langdon,
and say:
THE price named in the bill, which is
about 20 cents per foot is very close to
the selling price of small parcels of land in
that vicinity. The elevation of the tract
will average nearly $50 feet above the
Potomac river. 1t Is on a hillside and has
a sweeping outlook toward the city of
Washington and the Eastern branch. 1t
has number Of large trees upon it, which
seems to have determined it's selection, but
1t is no more favored in that respect than
many other localities in the District.
''The Commissioners are of the opinion
that any purchase of ground for park pur-
poses should accord with some well-defned
park system similar to that suggested by
the park commission, which includes in it's
plan a tract around Fort Thayer, distant
four blocks from the site mentioned in this
bill, and occupying ground better adapted
to park purposes than the site proposed"

that in framing law which imposes a rest
OF one day each week you will consider the
peculiar condition into which many of our
citizens would be plunged if that day be
no other than Sunday. The country's lib
erty might thereby be impaired to an enor-
nous degree. The passage of the Sunday
act without the provision as mentioned
ABOVE would mean to the consistent Israel
lite, to the Seventh-day Baptists and such
others either to be reduced to poverty by
closing up two days each week or be con-
Verted TO the others conception of a Sab
bath and of religion. 1 would be very much
disappointed to see such an injustice sane
toned by our lawmakers. 1 therefore in
dorse such a law as compeis the observance
OF a Sabbath, but leaves it to the con-
science and faith of the citizen to select
the one to be observed"
