THE FAN AT THE CONCERT.

When the team is on the circuit,
And there amt no place to 20,
When the park is like a graveyard
All the rooters laying low;
Then my appetite for music
Gets the upper hand, and so
BY nosln&5 round a-plenty
why, I've found a place to go
Concert, s what they call the doin's,
And a high-up bleacher seat
with cuSnlon, costs a quarter,
ana tnlS nome team cam be beat.
Air much difference 'twixt a concert
And game, when once you think,
only here, betwixt the innings
You can go and have drink.
The umpire has his back to YOU.
And waves little bat;
HIS stick-work brings things up to time,
ana Keeps EN- sharp, not fat.
IhOugh he Ual,eS the boys step brjskIv
DO their parts and be alive
He allows thera some expression. :.
And 1t doesn't cost 'em five
Fans? You bet! And amt they stirring
After things warm up a, bit?
You should see EN- flap and flutter,
once some player makes hit.
And there's someone always making hits
That infield--nale quartette-
Is a dandy! Not a low one
That the big first base can't get.
%AIlu IilSH S6COHu OdSG1ndnS running S
Most as good as Del can do;
While the third man takes the high ones,
>, Does some smooth cid sliding. too.
Then the first and third together
Makes some double plays that shine;
And the outfield up and backs en-
Say, their team work is just fine!
When teller sings a solo,
Why, you stamp your feet and then
It's an encore He da capo'S-
That Is comes to bat again
There's some swells-it stands to reason
And you hS~sr some slurs, Of course,
But this team is all in harmony,
Has tone and lots of force.
Want to see a whopping diamond?
Come with me tomorrow night,
Where the play is allegretto,
And the pitching's always rigl%
With the team out on the circuit,
And the rooters laying low,
'Taint SO dod- blamed long and lonesome,
Once you find out where to go!

from time to time regulating the hours of
service in the executive Departments and
the right to leaves of absence. 1t will be
observed that in neither of the acts of 1886
or 1874 was the question of the right to
leaves of absence dealt with, and by the
latter the hours of service in the depart
ments were left wholly in the discretion of
the heads thereof.
I'm 1852, after careful inquiry instituted
by the committee on appropriations, it was
aScertained that scarcely any two of the
departments observed the same daily hours
of service, and that leaves of absence were
granted in the various departments, a
rule, not to exceed thirty days in any one
year. Exceptions to this rule were COM
mon, and leaves of absence without limit
were granted in some, if not in many cases,
and no restriction or limit was placed upon
absence on account of sickness. There
upon, on the recommendation of the COM
mittee, the act of 1888 was passed, restrict
ing annual leaves to not exceed thirty days
in any one year except in cases of sickness.
Under this law it was ascertained that
abuses were practiced and that leaves We're
granted for more less time on account
of alleged sickness. To check this abuse
the act of 1893 was passed, which was
amended in 1898 by the act which is now
the law. limiting annual leave to thirty
days in any one year, and limiting leave on
account of sickness, in exceptional and
meritoriOus cases, to not exceeding thirty
days additional. Following the acts re-
ferred to, the committee also submits ref
erence to other laws granting leaves of alb
sence to civilian employees Of the govern
ment"

10 the l-dltOr OF Inc EVenlns STAR:
Kindly allow me space to say few words
with reference to the proposed amendments
to the building regulations. Cannot the
property owners. architects and building
trades devise some means by which the con-
tinual agitation of the building laws can be
stopped? 1t was thought by the committee
of architects and builders who revised the
building laws in 1899 that the problem as
oughly studied and solved to the satisfac-
tion of all interests. Now, just at the be-
ginning of very active building season.
when plans have been prepared. according
to existing laws and contracts let for 81 900
0U0 or more worth of improvements in the
line of office buildings and apartment
houses, We are suddenly confronted with q
notice that the Senate District committee
and the Commissioners have decided to hold
up all permits for tall buildings until Com
gress sees fit To enact new laws, thereby
causing many property holders who con-
templated putting up large buildings to
abandon the prospect indefinitely. We
learn also that the Senate District commit
tee and the Commissioners propose to re-
duce the heights of all Office buildings and
apartment houses All of the PROPOSED
amendments being brought about by reason
of some one wanting TO build modern Of
flee building opposite the State, War and
scheme of the park commission. Is it rea-
sonable for the Senate District committee
and the Commissioners to make these
amendments without giving the property
holder, the architect and builder a hear

sons of Veterans in Spanish War.

To the Editor of The Evening Star:
In The Star of last evening there was a
notice of a reception rendered the Union
Veteran Legion by the Spanish War Veter-
ans. During the meeting one of the "old
vets remarked: They talk of the Sons
of Veterans and other organizations sue
ceeding us, but that cannot be DONE
fighting men only can succeed fighting
men,
To infer that the Sons Of Veterans
would not fight In defense of their flag
does not harmonize with the record of
their order concerning the enistments of
its members at the outbreak of the Span
ish war. The fact that the regiments
were recruited for service by individual
enlistment compelled many camps of Sons
of Veterans to disband so that their men,
bers could enlist as individuals Many
thousands of Sons responded to their
countrys call in '9S with as much patri-
otic enthusiasm was manifested by
their fathers in 81. A war service medal
has been prepared and presented to each
member of the Sons of Veterans who
served in the Spanish war. The writer has
medal No. 1901. The Spanish war Vet
Grams have been referred to as the 'logi-
cal successors of the veterans of the civil
war. The soldiers of the Spanish war do
not desire to wear the hOnors won by the
veterans of the war between the states.
To succeed the old veterans We must lay
aside the laurols We have won, to wear
the emblems of victory achieved by our
seniors. We do not want the mantle of
our honored Sires it won't fit We want
to be robed in our nice new mantle, cut
to tit with our own swords. If the organ
izations of the civil war desire perpatua-
tion they must look for that work to the
Sons of Veterans who In 9S, as fighting
men, sustained the reputation won by
their fathers in 81. r S H
