EAST END CITIZENS.
Recommendations for improvements
Business Matters Considered.

A meeting Of the East End Suburban
Citizens Association was held at Northeast
Temple last evening. After calling the
meeting 10 order and the regular routine
work had been disposed of President VIM
b. Ernest read his report, in which he rec
commended an appropriation Of 500 for re-
surfacing Park street east of Bladensburg
road to the lane; 5000 for repairs to Rla-
densburg road from the Hamilton School
eastwardly to the District line, and Sl5,O 900
for the permanent Improvement Of Bladens-
burg road to Mount Olivet cemetery. He
also urged the association to ask for its
share Of the current appropriation for cleo
trio lights east Of Rock creek, as the asso-
citation had been largely instrumental In Sc
curing legislation that would enable the
Commissioners to authorize such lights to
be erected.
Following the presidents suggestion, Mr..
Chas K. Talbert, chairman of the COM
mittee on police, fire and lights. asked
that electric lights be placed on Bladens-
burg road from the toll gate to the District
line; also on 18th street from Florida ave-
nue. to Mount Olivet road, and on the latter
highway from 18th street to BIadenshurp
road, and, on motion, the same was adopted.
Mr.. J. NJ. Burns spoke of the shabby and
dangerous condition Of the sidewalk on the
south side of Bladensburg road leading To
the Hamilton School.
On motion 1t was unanimously decided to
ask for $4,000 for the permanent fmproye-
ment Of Bladensburg road, instead of
$4,000, which the president had suggested
The other items in his report were ac
cepted.
Mr.. Chas. r. Talbert asked that a vote If
thanks be rendered Mr.. Thomas Markwood.
the veteran policeman, who has Just been
retired. for the long, able and efficient SER
vice he has rendered the District, and that
Maj. Sylvester be asked to have a man de-
tailed at 18th and H streets permanently to
take the place Of the retired officer. The
suggestion was adopted, and the COMMITTEES
on police, fire and lights was ordered to
carry out its provisions.
1t was reported that Mr.. 8. S. Rowland
had agreed to donate site for a chemical
engine house at Benning, and that the sum
Of SIS. 600 to be asked for to build and fur
nish the house was not sufficient; hence
on notion the Commissioners will be asked
to increase the estimate to $4,000. Mr.
Rowland was. on motion Of Mr.. Edward
Refill, rendered a vote OF thanks, and he
was made an honorary member Of the asso-
citation.
The question Of sewerage along Benning
road was brought UP, and 1t was decided to
ask that a sewer be placed along that road
from 10th street to 18th street, and south
on 10Th street from Benning road to the
trunk sewer. The association asked that
the chain gang be put to work grading and
regulating 10th street from East Capitol
street through to the Benning road
Messrs. A. Pinerling and Charles r, LUIS
combe were elected members Of the asso-
citation.

able They have merely undertaken to
dazzle the speculative world by playing
upon the popular fancy for full-page ad-
vertisements, and in nearly every one OF
them the motive of the organization mas
been mainly to shield capital already in
vested in the operation of natural forces
always present in the commercial woriu.
If they have failed in that they have failed
in everything, and the power which some
have been afraid would be used to wrong
and burden the community has not even
proved equal to the task Of taking care OF
itself
Before anybody makes up his mind that
the so-called American trust is perma-

list of ambitious combinations when nave

courts of Justice The alcohol trust the

phalt trust, the bicycle trust ana scores

THE more / examine the old law OF com

day of settlement has already come to so
many of these once formidable institutions
how has it Jared with those which have so
far survived the test? Already the evidence
is accommodating from which the doom of
the trusts can be foretold, even the most
solvent and best managed of them all. The
figures of the census show that neither In
the mercantile nor the manufacturing world
has the small dealer who owns his business
and gives it his personal attention anything
to fear in competition with the overgrown
and top-heavy investments of capital that
surround him.
There is no room in this discussion for
vain eXclamations of alarm and despair
Up to this time the tariff policy, to which
we owe the prosperous conditions when
now surround US, has been the ally OF 1nde-
pendent capital in it's grapple with the mod
ern trust system; but If the day should
ever come when the productive energies
of the American people are impotent IN the
presence of monopoly the protection when

A sPRINTER OF THE SEA.
Mile Minute is Just Easy Jogging
for the Tuna Of the Pacific.

Correspondence of the New York Sun.
Irving Wright. one OF the most successful
fishermen in this region, has just returned
home from that fishers paradise, Santa
Catalina Island. and stands sponsor for a
tuna story which gives some idea Of the
wonderful swimming power Of the big Pa
cific game fish.
VERY few tunas had been caught up to
the time left he said. "but one OF those
which wasn't caught taught me something
that makes me wonder still. Tunas. ac-
cording to the Catalina fishermen. can
sprint under water something like 900 feet
in four and a half seconds. That is a fact
that has been recorded time and again as

One interesting problem relating to the

it is believed, has been settled by Prof
Weed of the geological survey.
While" he says, there have been many
theories advanced to account for the source
of the hot waters. the only hypothesis that
stands the test of scientific inquiry is the
one which ascribes the heat of the waters
to still hot but concealed bodies of igneous
rock. 1t seems scarcely necessary to call
attention to the absurAity of the idea that

The Cause of Lightning.

Where does the superabundant cleo trlc energy of thunderstorm come from? In the annual report of the Unl- ted States Weather Bureau, condensa- tion Is credited with d large share In its production. When small, feebly charged particles of mist are welded together, as 1t were, into raindrops, since the po- tentIal increases as the square of the mass, a high tension may easily be de- veloped. Ten drops, each charged to one thousand volts, will thus produce one drop charged to one hundred thousand volts. As Soon as drops begin to form at the beginning of storm, the rela- lively small tension of the atmosphere charges soon becomes enormously null tlplied, and dlsruptlye lightning dis charges are the result.

Progress of Cremation.

That veteran advocate of cremation, Sir Henry Thompson, has published in the Lancet a statistical account of the progress of this movement which should interest those who regard ere nation as the only satisfactory mode of disposing decently of the dead, hay ing regard to the safety of the living. At Woking 2,O97 cremations have ta- ken place, beginning with 3 in the year 1885 and ending in 1901 with 273 In 1901 there were, besides 95 at Man chester, 40 at Liverpool, IS at Glas- gow, r at Hull and at Darlington. Leicester will have a crematorium in a few months. and the institution in course of erection in the north of Lon don will be ready before the close of 1902 The United States has 26 ere matories, of which 24 are in use. At Fresh Pond, N. r., 654 bodies were cremated in 1901, 666 at San Francis co (Odd Fellows), and 1S2 at Chicago. In Paris, from 1899 to 1901, 2,299 pri- vate cremations took place.-San Fran cisco Chronicle.

How Williams Came
 To GO Back East

Williams of Rhode Island was down the gold State, and had confidently looked forVard to each succeeding years enabling him to go back home and make things comfortable for the woman and little ones. But each sue ceeding year had found him precisely where the previous one had left him sanguine prospector, with q wealth of hope and pitifully small outfit.
 But this last find had been different. He had taken out sixty dollars day for a week, and with this substantial evidence of coming prosperity had written a letter which filled the far away home with sudden joy. Then the vein had disappeared, and he had picked and shoyeled and hauled away dirt until his money was exhausted. But the gold was there, he was sure of it; and his confidence had induced the trader at Three Forks to advance him funds. However, there had been a shaft to sink, solid rock to cut through; and it had all been expensive. When it was accomplished the money was gone-and there was no vein.
 He was still confident: but the trader was angry, and had accused him of false pretenses. Only this morning he had received intimation that the Sheriff was about to levy on his mine-on his Molly, named after the dear one it was to do so much for.
 He was aroused by approaching foot steps When he looked up two men stood before him. One of them was the owner of the ad oining claim; the other was the Sheriff.
 T have come to-" began the off cer.
 Yes, yes, I know" Williams Of Rhode Island rose heavily to his feet. Its all right. Just go ahead. can do nothing"
 The sheriff looked at him curiously.
 "Oh, 'tain't quite so bad as that" he but Kansas here has been tellin me something that has changed my plans. You needn't bother about the bill jest now
 T s'pose you heerd bout my luck?' Kansas asked, blandly.
 I've got pretty vein,' Kansas went on frankly; but hit dips to'ard you uns' land. If thar's a pocket l low hits acrost your line. I don't s'pose ye'd be willin' to sell out, clean; but if yell go pards I'll give ye ten thousand for half share" He waited moment. but as there was no reply, added: I'll make it twenty for a clean job; but of course ye won't quiti"
 Williams of Rhode Island looked down into the valley, and up the noun tain; and then across to the east, where the sun was just rising above the pines.
 ''Yes. I'll quit" he said, huskily; you can buy me out clean. I'm going home" Philadelphia Times.
