WATER AS A REJUVENATOR.
Denomination at Meeting of New
York Vegetarian Society.

Water considered as -rejuvenatOr
was the novel feature of paper on
"The Influence of Water Upon Health
and Longevity" read by DR.. A. L.
Wood at the meeting of the New York
Vegetarian society held the other even
ing at 1913 East Twenty-eighth street,
says the New York Evening Post.
During the past year he said that he
had taken about one gallon of distilled
water day, with the result that he
had become stronger, healthier and
more elastic and flexible in joint and
muscle, although sixty-two years of
age, than he had been since boyhood,
and he demonstrated his fleXibility by
placing the palms Of his hands fiat
upon the floor without bending his
knees and by standing on one foot and
putting the other to his face. He had
stood on box eight inches in height
and touched the floor with his fingers.
The results were produced by the pow
erful solvent properties of distilled wa
ter in removing from the system the
deposits of lime and other earthly salts
and minerals which bring on prema-
ture hardening of the tissues.
DR.. Wood said that neither boiling
nor fltering rendered impure water
safe to use. Boiling did not destroy
all the worst disease germs. but con-
densed the other impurities in the wa
ter and made it more impure than be-
fore. Disease germs breed with great
rapidity in the best filters and pass
through with the water. The only safe
water to use fer drinking and cooking
is that purified by distllation.

Charles Il. Dow spoke Of the discov

"YOu will soon be able" he said. 'tO

He declared that it is impossible to

is possibility of infinite combination
in tuning. He said:
"The isolation Of ships on the ocean
will soon come to an end. Ships. too
will be kept safe by tiny instrument
TO warn them of the approach of other
ships. Travel on railways will be made
infinitely safer. as every engine CAP
will carry an instrument and be able
to talk with trains on the road ahead
and behind it. Armies and navies will
move under wireless orders.
"The Associated Press will be able TO
bulletin messages in Chicago to be sent
instantaneously and coincidently to a
thousand American cities. Marconl

MUNICIPAL HOSPITAL.
Health Officer Recommends Item for
Inclusion in Appropriation Bill.

The District Commissioners have forward
ed to Congress recommendation from the
health officer, DR.. Woodward, that $780, 600
be provided in the District appropriation
bill for continuing work on the Municipal
Hospital. DR.. Woodward calls attention to
and comments on the bill in Congress pro-
viding for the rebuilding Of Freedmen's
Hospital. saying on the subject:

hearing before the Senate appropriation

$3.50 1000 was sufficient to provide a hos
pital containing 100 beds. If by reason of
type of constructions adopted. or otherwise.
a hospital of this capacity be erected, con-
private patients, the capacity for free pa
tients will even then be $50 beds less than
the capacity Of thepreEent institution. and
it will be necessary to provide accommoda-
lions for such patients elsewhere.
Under any circumstances it may be as
Sumed that NJ FreedmenS Hospital is re-
built at a cost of $150OO0. along the lines
indicated at the hearing before the Senate
committee on appropriations, 1t will be
necessary to provide hospital accommoda-
lions for between 40 and 900 patients to be
treated at public expense. Moreover, in
view of the fact that the building is to be
located on the site of the present Freed

MANY POLITICAL SPEECHES.
Discussing the Philippine Bill in the
House

a desire to get political speeches in the
Record seems to be the present inspiration
of members OF the House in the debate on
the Philippine bill. Saturday afternoon and
evening speeches We're decidedly of this
character. Mr.. Maddox of Georgia OPP
posed the bill. Mr.. Bromwell of Ohio fol-
lowed in it's defense. Mr.. Dinsmore. said
the bill of the majority meant perpetual
colonial policy.
Mr.. Mcclellan (N.YD. in a brief speech.
defended the army. There may have been
Instances of cruelty in the Philippines, he
said. but there should be no difference

AMICABLE CONCLUSION.
Parties to Controversy Found to B
About of One Mind.

A hearing which gave promise Of much
interest was begun before the District Com
missioners at II o'clock this morning. When
it had progressed to the point of the con-
clusion of one SIDE of the controversy,
however, 1t was discovered there was no
great disparagement in the views OF all
the parties at interest, and matters were
brought to an abrupt and amicable conclu-
sion forthwith.
The hearing was granted to Mr.. Natha MEL
Wilson, who was said to be opposed to Ger
tain features of the proposed addition Of
tracks to the Columbia railway at it's ter
minus on Benning road for the accommoda-
ton of the Chesapeake Beach and Wash
ington and Annapolis railroads. The WASH
ington Railway and Electric Company,
which owns the Columbia line has applied
to the Commissioners for a permit to lay
the tracks in accordance with the provi-
sions of the act Of 1898. giving the railway
company authority to extend it's lines. The
proposed additional tracks contemplated in
jointly by the Columbia road and the two
suburban lines mentioned. doing away with
the transfer of Chesapeake Beach passen-
gers at Chesapeake Junction.
1t developed during the hearing that Mr..
Wilson's main point OF protest was against
the location of any permanent improve
ments or structures in the lines of the ex-
tension of Maryland avenue and the widen
Ing OF Benning road. He said he did not
want any distractions placed In the way OF
the opening and widening OF the thorough
fares mentioned. He was Immediately as
