Steam Appliances at Tenth Precinct
Station Out of Order.

Capt. Isaac Pearson, of the Police De-
partment recently called the attention {:
the District Commissioners to the fact
that the steam pipes in the Tenth pre-
cinct stationhouse have been leaking con-
siderably for some time, and that he had
been informed by the contractor that he
would not be responsible as long as other
the steam appliances.
Upon the order of Major Sylvester
Lieut.. John Kenney. commanding the pre-
cinct has made a report upon the mat
ter. in which he says that the only per-
sons who have touched the steam heating
apparatus have been two privates, one Of
whom is an old engineer. and the other
an eX-fireman on the Baltimore and Ohio
Railroad. Lieutenant Kenney states that
these men only replenished the fires after
possibly cause the leaks, as the latter
are some distance from the furnace and
the pipes leading thereto.
Lieutenant kenney says that it is nee
essary to fire the furnace at or soon after
midnight in order to keep the station
warm. He promises to do all in his power
to prevent the leakage. but intimates that
he cannot be held accountable for defects
in the joints of the pipes carrying the
steam.
Major Sylvester. in returning the papers
to the District Commissioners. suggests
that someone familiar with such appara-
tus be authorized to inspect it with a
view to having IL put in proper condition.

to Building Inspector.

Mr.. Snowden Ashford. Inspector of
Buildings, has forwarded to the District
Commissioners for their consideration a
statement relative to the application of
Mr. j. Mel. Dodson, for permission to
erect storage house on the east hank

upon which 1t is proposed to erect the
building is claimed by the Government,
and he believes their title has been con-
ceded.
1t is further stated that the proposed
buildings would be within the fire limits.

within the system of the parking commits
sion, Mr.. Ashford recommends that an
exception be made, and permission grant

standing that it shall be removed without

His Credentials.
TEMPORARY PERMIT REFUSED
Beard of Examiners Without Authority
to Act in the Matter-Law Very Ex-
plicit on the Point - Virginia More
Stringent Than District of Columbia.

Mr.. A. r. DuvaIl, the City Solicitor, has
opinion upon the communication of Hon.
John F. Rixey. Representative, of Virginia,
enclosing an application from DR.. A A.
Ritenour, of Alexandria, to be allowed
the privilege of practicing medicine in the
District until such time as he could take
an examination for license before the
Board of Medical Supervisors.
The Solicitor states that the secretary
of the Board of Medical Supervisors has
correctly stated the provisions of the
law relating to the case under consider
alton.
Points Out the Law.
Mr.. Duvall calls attention to the act
of Congress of June 8, 1896 requiring all
persons desiring to practice medicine and
surgery in the District to submit to a
medical examination. He also calls at
tention to section of that act, provid
ing for the issue of license to licenti-
ates of other States, when those States
extend the same courtesy to licentiates
from the District of Columbia. Continu-
ing, Mr.. Duvall says:
1t appears that the State of Virginia
does not issue licenses. TO practice medi-
cine to licentiates of the District of
Columbia upon the conditions specified in
said act of Congress. 1t therefore fol-
lows that licentiates of the State of Vir-
ginia are not entitled to practice nIedi-
cine in the District until the license is
issued by the Board of Medical Super
visors.
Directs Examiners.
THE act of Congress further provides
that the board of examiners mentioned
in the act shall hold regular stated meet
ings for the examination of applicants,
and that other meetings shall be held at
suen times as the board may itself de-
eide.
1T is requested in this case that tenn
porary license shall be issued pending an
examination by the board. ! am of the
opinion that the law does not authorize
this, and that. therefore, the board is
without authority to issue such a tenn
porary license

ANNIVERSARY OF
EMNBT'S BIRTH
Appropriate Exercises This
Evening at the Columbia.
AN APPEAL TO PATRIOTISM
Distinguished Speakers to Laud the
Cause for Which the Leader of 'es
Gave Up His Young Life-Address by
Very Rev. P. ]. Garrigan, D. D.

The 124th anniversary of the birth of
Robert Emmett. the Irish patriot, will be
celebrated with Appropriate exercises at
the Columbia Theatre this evening. Dis
tinguished speakers will pay homage to
the memory of the man who did SO much
for nationalism in the Emerald Isle, while
songs and recitations will complete the
programme.
Among those to take part In the exer-
cises are several United States Senators
and Representatives and a number of dis.
tiuguished ecclesiastics. Admission to the
meeting will be free. The demand of Ire
land for independence is to be formulated
and patriotism to be encouraged to hold
full sway.
By every son of Erin the memory Of
Emmett is held sacred, and although a
century has passed since his execution in
Dublin by the English, he is loved and
honored more and more each year. The
sacrifice of his life is one of the most
cherished possessions of the Irish people.
Of Noble Birth.
Cultured and chivaIrous, Robert Emmett
was born of family which stood high in
the social scale. He was educated at
Trinity College, Dublin, but in spite of
the fact that his surroundings during the
time he was being educated would appar-
emily tend to make him look with COM
placency upon the degradation Of the
common people, he, on the contrary,
became their most ardent champion.
Robert and his brother, Thomas Adds
Emmett, who was also a patriot of the
best type, and who later became one of
the most eminent lawyers in America,
had imbibed the principles of patriotism
while yet beneath this paternal roof.
From an early age he had been ac-
quainted with the history of his country,
and had absorbed as part of his being the
lofty ideals inspired by the deeds Of
the long list Of Irish martyrs through
six centuries of persecution.
A College Student.
He had seen IN his own time-though
yet but a college student-the work per-

TO CONSTRUCT COAL VAULTS
Local Firm Awarded Contract for Pension
Office Improvement.

The contract for the construction of an
areaway and coal vaults on the west and
south sides of the Pension Office was
awarded yesterday by the Secretary of the
Interior to the local firm of Messrs. Mead
& Reynolds whose bid was s13, 400.
The erection of these vaults will pro-
vide a sufficient amount of space for the
storing of coal used by the department
during the winter, and thus allow the
basement which has heretofore been used
for that purpose, to be used for the stor-
ing of pension documents.
