WOMAN DROWNED.
Stepped Overheard From Wharf at
Foot Of Eighth Street.

Rosie NJ. Taylor, colored. nineteen years
old, was drowned In the river at the foot
Of Sth street southwest last night about Z
o'clock. Benjamin Woody, the young wo-
mans escort, was arrested and locked up
on a charge Of intoxication, and her body
was recovered from the water a few min
utes after the accident occurred. Efforts
at resuscitation proved to be futile. Ex-
pecting some friends to arrive here on the
steamer Randall from the lower, Potomac
the young woman went to the wharf early
in the afternoon. Finding the boat would
not reach the wharf until after dark she
went to Alexandria on ferry boat to meet
her friends there. Just after leaving the
steamer she went n the wrong direction
and stepped overheard. She screamed for
assistance, but 1t was too late. When
Woody saw his companion walking IN the
wrong direction he warned her OF the dan
ger, but was unable to prevent the accident.
Coroner hewitt viewed the body at the
morgue and decided an inquest was un-
necessary. A certificate OF accidental death
was given and the body was turned over to
relatives. The womans home was ON Con-
cord street, Brookland.

The Best in American Journalism.
From the Springfield Republican

The Washington Evening Star celebrates
its fiftieth anniversary with an elaborate

interest, as 1t could hardly help being when
dealing with a half century Of history of
the national capital A good deal of space
Is, OF course, given to an account Of The
Star itself, and this also Is OF more than
usual interest, for The Star Is a notable ex-
ample Of newspaper which has reached
success while working with high ideals,
not pandering to a real or imaginary de-
mand for sensationalism and froth Both
editorially and mechanically 1t Is fine ex-
ample Of the best in American journalism

BLIZZARD IN THE WEST.
Heavy Shows in Colorado, Wyoming
and South Dakota.

The blizzard that ragged on Friday and
Saturday in eastern Colorado and Wyoming
and western Kansas and Nebraska was the
most serious in years to the railroads, so
far as the interruption Of traffic is con-
cerned. All trains on the Union Pacific and
Burlington roads were delayed at least
twentyfour hours, and some trains even
more than that This is true of trains over
the Kansas Pacific branch Of the Union Pa
ciflc. Along the line snow drifts from six
to ten feet deep made the movement OF
trains impossible until the tracks could be
cleared.
Lincoln, Neb.. from the Black Hills divfs-
ion say the storm Is over and the blockade
relieved. Trains are delayed, but all are
moving. The fall of snow has been very
heavy all over the state and there will be
some suffering by stock. but unless the
weather shall become much colder 1t Is be-
ueyed the losses will be light.

Ranks Among the Best.
From the Philadelphia Press.

The Evening Star Of Washington has
distinct, unique and conspicuous place of
its own in the armament Of journalism. 1t
has just celebrated it's semi-centennial with
q remarkable issue of historical reminis-
cent and artistic value. We do not recall
a more ample and creditable specimen OF
well-considered and well-wrought journal
istic effort 1t matches the whole char
acter Of The Star. That paper ranks
among the best in the land in its true indie
pendence, its elevation Of tone and pur-
pose, it's high integrity and devotion to the
public interests. Mr.. Crosby Noyes, the
veteran editor; Mr.. Kaufman. the presi-
dent of the company, and their capable as
sociates are to be congratulated on sus-
tanned work of the worthiest character.

Delinquent Taxes.

Under the new law for the collection
OF taxes, unpaid taxes become delin-
quent after the first Monday in
October. The county courts have alb
solutely no jurisdiction in the prem
ises, and do not have the right to ex-
tend for day the time for the collec-
tion OF any delinquent taxes. Under
the old law regulating the collection
OF taxes, they became delinquent after
Aoril |, but the county court had the
authority to make such extension OF
the time in which to make the collec-
tions as was deemed proper. But the
county court mas no power to act in
this relation under the new law, and
taxes will become delinquent after the
first Monday in October.

To-day isn't as great a day for New

is large. 1t is the day when Yale will
twist the tigers tail as the tiger
moves, or tries to move. across the
football field at Princeton. That is, the
tail will be twisted unless the tiger
objects so strenuously that the twist
ing is found to be impracticable. Will
the tiger be able to so object? Judg-
ing from the betting and few other
pious and educational indications, the
chances are considered somewhere near
even. But, of course. all who root for
Yale have faith to believe that when
her warriors get to work the chances
will be speedily and effectively made
uneven, and that the unevenness will
favor Yale. 1t will be sad indeed IL it
doesn't. Perish the thought that it
may not. Victory is in the air. Watch
Yale grab it by the legs and pull it
down.

We're assured them. The Democrats

was forced upon us largely by the in

behind the silver issue Turk a number
of shadowy notions, purely socialistic
in character, which have no belonging

torn from the old-time jug Of Jeffer-
