Anacostia and Vicinity.

The recent Indictment weather has had the
effect of calling forth a number Of demands
from poor people in this section, which the
police are unable to respond to other than
by referring the applicants to the charities
organizations. Much Of this work is being
done locally by the church societies.
The funeral of John Carroll, the colored
citizen Of Anacostia whose death occurred
Friday evening, was held Saturday morning
from st. Teresas Church, Anacostia. The
interment was made at city cemetery.
Officer J. F. Reagan of the Anacostia
force, who has been quite i'll, was able to
report for duty this morning

Trust Evils.

Properties that were of little value
have, as everybody knows, been put
into some combinations at high values.
In some cases properties (mills, for
example) have been absorbed at the
value of the damage that they we're
supposed to do as competitors to the
absorbing properties-in other words
at what the trust organizers could af-
ford to give, or were forced to give. to
close them. Thus some trusts have
capitalized negative things loss.
In the juggling with thought that
underlies much of the promoters vo-
cabulary, the capitalization of such
loss has often been called an "econo-
my" Thus-two factions are in COM
petition. Neither makes money.
Each is held at s1,OOO,OOO. They are
combined. Their combined value is
called $2,000,0O0. But, if one of them
is shut, the real value of the two is
only 81 100000. Yet they are capita
lized at $4,000, 900, and must pay div
idends on 100000. Something like
this has been done time and again.

The blood stained corpse of five
year-old boy was discovered Wednes-

was packed tightly in large coffee
can two feet high and 18 inches wide
aud vas wrapped IN the bloodsoaded
folds Of woman's dress. The only
marks on the body was bullet hole
in the breast, probably the cause of
death. When Daversburg was reach.
ed man and woman who had deposit

Jail in McKeesport. They said their

Whey they found him he was dead.
They decided to keep the matter

Airsllips of the Future.

Wireless telcgraphy has not yet
reached the acme of perfection, al
though messages are rapidly sent and
received by this wonderful system.
And yet the world already takes the
invention of wireless telegraphy as
matter of course. In this age of
great achievement and discovery it
seems as if nothing is too stupendous
for man to undertake, and that failure
to evolve something useful, as well as
wonderful, is the exception, not the
rule. Some things that have been
attempted have not been brought to
perfection yet, but there is nothing
discouraging in this. Obstacles serve
only to spur human genius to renewed
action and greater eXertion. We
travel by land and sea at rate Of
speed that 100 years ago would have
been called the result Of witchcraft.
We do not travel through the air with
equal facility at present, but We may
do 80 within few years, as the
efforts Of men Of brains along this
line are certain to gain the mastery of
tho air as they have of the land and
sea.
Those who scoff at the student of
aerial navigation and scout the idea
of success attending the efforts of the
men who seek to discover the secret
Of flying may live to see the heavens
dotted with ships sailing as placidly
through the air as vessels now navi.
gate the seas. In the opinion of the
United States commissioner of pat.
ents, the dirigible balloon or aeroplane
will be successfully evolved during
the year 1904. This prediction may
be based on false premigos, but there
can be no gainsaying TIE fact that
great strides in the direction Of aerial
navigation will be made during this
year. The spirit of inventions will be
quickencd by the offers Of large re-
ward by the St. Louis exposition man
ayers for the most succcessful exhibi.
tion Of flying machine. There will be
many competitors for this prize, and
Yankee ingenuity will vie with for
cign in an effort.to produce an airship
that will not only travel ct q good
rate of speed with the wind, but be
perfectly comfortable. e.-Aeronautical

A Death Party.

The New York Tribune tells a
strange story of young woman af
flictcd with consumption, who was
told by her physician that she could
not live much longer and he felt it his
duty to inform her. Instead of being
greatly depressed as it was feared the
young woman Of nineteen years would
be, she declared that she wished &c
give death party, and made out g
list Of special friends whom she wished
to entertain. When the company
were all assembled the young woman,
who was propped up among the pill
lows in reclining chair, informed
tAcm OF the news given by the doc
tor aud told them she had wanted TO
see them all once more, and had asked
their presence in order that she might
bid them farewell. This was rather
grucsome and melancholy star, for
party, bu, it is reported that after
this statement the young lady assured
her guests that she wanted them all to
be cheerful and make merry just as
though she was in perfect health.
The company carried out her wishes
as far as they were able to do SO, and
later OF refreshments were served.
When the time came for the se1aration,
however, and the guests began saying
goodbye to their host, perhaps for the
last time, there was general break
ing down and all left with fearful
eyes. This is, perhaps, the only par
ty Of it's kind on record, and it is not
likely to have many imitators. -Au-

A New Car Wheel.

9. W. Hawkins, who is now at work
on his division of the Great Northern
Railway, with headquarters at Garret-
son, this county, has been awarded
patent on an invention which, it is
said, promises to make him a mil
lionaire.
The product of his genius is termed
ball-bearing anti-friction car wheel.
Its practioabiIity IL soon to be tested
by several Eastern railroads as we'll
as the Great Northern. The car wheel
does not differ materially in appear
ance from an ordinary wheel, and is so
constructed that it may be made indie
pendent of the journal and run on the
ball-bearing attachment if occasion
demands.
In the event of hot journal often
the cause Of disastrous wrecks-by
the application of wedge, the jour
nal may be made to remain stationary
and the wheel will run on the ball
bearings, which are constructed of
highly hardened steel and arc oiled
automatically.
The arrangement also permits the
outside wheel to run faster in travers-
ing curve than the inside wheel with
out slipping, thus reducing the possi-
bility of friction to minimum, and do
ing away with the wear, which makes
it imperative that the steel on sharp
curves must be replaced at frequent
intervals to avoid derailments and re-
sulting disasters to rolling stock and
possible loss of life.
It is also claimed for the new wheel
that it will reduce the draught of trains
fully 25 per cent and .hat it can be
manufactured and maintained at q
small added cost over the price of the
wheels at present in use.-New York
Herald.
