An article which will prove of the
widest interest to all those engaged in
teaching or who may be interested in
education, is one in the January Cos
mopolitan by Elisha Benjamin An
drews, ex-President of Brown Univer-
sity, who for the first time, in lead
ing magazine, has had the courage to
show the great evils resulting from the
private contract school-book system
educational officials corrupted, school
books often the poorest selected, and
the prices paid by the children them
selves of the highest-an annual tax
going up into the millions which could
be very easily saved if proper organi-
zation were brought into this effort.

CHANCE OF RECOVERY.
Soldier Who Was Accidentally Shot
Not Dangerously Injured.

William Singleton, the young soldier who
accidentally shot himself late Monday eten-
ing at Fort Hunt, Is reported as resting
hospital at the fort, stated to a Star re-
porter that Singleton is not dangerously
injured, and that he lis hopeful of the
young mans recovery. Although the case
is a difficult one to diagnose at this time.
According to the report of the accident,
Singleton was alone in the office of the
guardhouse about o'clock Monday even
ing. when shot was heard from that
building When several of the soldiers en-
tered the office Immediately afterward to
investigate the cause of the shooting they
found Singleton lying on the floor face
ears, well as from gaping wound In his
left breast. His rife, containing one empty
shell. lay beside him.
The injured man was Immediately taken
to the fort hospital, and as soon as the
hemorrhage ceased he told the surgeons
that he shot himself accidentally explain
ing that he had placed a shell in the rifle
while walking out with prisoners during
the afternoon and had forgotten that the
weapon was loaded. The officers at the
post know of no reason why the soldier
should desire to end his life, and accept
the explanation of accidental shooting. The
bullet came out through the back, just be-
low his left shoulder.
Singleton is twenty-five years of age and
has been member of the coast artillery
stationed at Fort Hunt for about six
months. He enlisted from Charlestown
W. Va. Immediately after thseman was
injured his relatives in Charlestown were
notified of the accident, but no answer was

HER HAIR A MENACE.
So Young Woman Press Feeder is Out
of Job.

The foreman of the press room of the
government printing Office has not attempt
ed to dictate the style of hair-dressing of
female press feeders and other employees of
his division. but few days ago he told a
young woman she could not work any long
er in his room unless she should change the
manner Of wearing her hair
1t seriously interferes with your work -
he told her, and prevents your doing your
duty to the government satisfactorily
The offending and offended young woman
declined to obey and saw Mr.. Oscar ].
Ricketts,. the private secretary of Public
Printer Palmer. Mr.. Ricketts, is, in the alb
sence of Mr.. Palmer, in charge of the work
OF the Office. He is a diplomat and a good
fellow. He knows every public man in the
United States and all of them like him
If Mr.. Ricketts, had been dealing with a
man he would have known what to do and
say. In this case the wisdom of being dis
Greet prompted him to say little and that
nicely.
Il am sorry, madam" he said, that you
are having serious differences with Mr. Nc
Farland. ] would not attempt for anything
in the world to suggest to you how to wear
your hair, which, L am sure, is most at
tractive; but the complaint is that your hair
interferes with the feeding of the presses
and causes the spelling of many sheets of
paper.
etts said, and 1t is probable that was put in
a smoother way. but the young woman
went away without returning to the press
room, and she is still without employment.
When she undergoes n operation for her
tresses the officials of the printing office in
dicate that she may be reinstated. She was
employed once before, but trouble was ex-
perlenced then. At the time of her rein

or the young woman as to the proper fash

1t IS too delicate a subject for govern
ment employees to talk about especially
where a woman is protected by the civil
service. The government printing office at
taches familiar with the story decline to
attempt a description of just how the Of
Tended young woman does wear her hair
Mr.. Mcfarland, the head of the press
room division has not consulted the latest

Is unable to go into detail Mr.. Ricketts, is
entirely too diplomatic to talk

MUST OBEY THE LAW
ALLEGED UNLAWFUL SPEEDING
OF THE AUTOMOBILES.
Rewards to Be Offered for Information
Regarding Violations-Danger
to Pedestrians.

A determined effort is to be made to ston
the unlawful speeding of automobiles In
Rock Creek Park. Col. Biddle, the En-
gineer Commissioner Of the District and
executive officer of the park, has had the
matter in hand for several days and will
probably recommend to his associates that
rewards be offered for the arrest or for
information leading to the conviction of
the violators of the law.
Pedestrians and persons driving or rid
ing horseback in the park have recently
complained of the high speed at which GER
tain reckless chauffeurs have been driving
their machines along the roadways of the
reservation on Rock creek 1t is claimed
that to such a great extent has become the
practice of unlawful speeding that 1t is
dangerous for the driver of a spirited horse
to enter the PARK limits. The automobiles
have come dashing down hills and around
curves, 1t Is said. at, a speed not only dan
gerouS to the occupants of the vehicle IT.
SELF but calculated to bring about COLI
sions and seriously frighten horses.
The automobilists claim they have a right
to use the roads and driveways as well as
the vehicles to which horses are driven.
The board of control does not deny this,
but it holds that the automobiles have no
right to drive JaIl others out of the mark
and is determined that they shall not do so
1t Is intended to so, check the speed of the
vehicles as to make the use of the roads
by the horseless vehicles safe to all con-
Cerned. 81
Consultation Held.
The Rock Creek Bark board of control is
composed Of the District Commissioners and
the chief of engineers of the United States
army. Col. Biddle was elected by the board
as executive officer of the park and he will
take the initiative in the move against the
chauffeurs whp go. at too great a speed.
There is at present but one policeman en-
ployed In the, park and it is impossible for
him to exercise Supervision over the speed
Of the scores of automobiles which every
afternoon course through the Enclosures.
Maj. Sylvester. Superintendent of police,
was in consultation with Col. BiddIe TODAY
and an arrangement may be made by
which additional blue coats are put on duty
until the unlawful practices of some of the
automobilists are stopped. These additional
policemen In connection with the rewards
which Will probably be offered, are ex-
pected to bring about the desired result.
Last year the board of control had some
difficulty with the automobilsts but a few
arrests soon brought matters to a satisfac-
tory condition. The Commissioners win
probably issue notices in regard to the rum
ming of automobiles in the park within a
few days. ss51fgss
