Did Little Damage.

The report that the fatal hurricane
at Gainesville, Ca, did lot of damage
to the railroads in that section is denied
at the offices in this city. According to
the reports first sent out, 1t was said
the Southern had lost station and a
dozen or more employees had been in

Later the officers of the company here
received kilograms that these reports
were untrue. Some of the telegraph
wires went down, but they were soon
repaired, and Passenger Agent Frank

on it. but sometimes a frost" or a
roast" from the dailies will do a whole
lot of influencing, take for example Inc
Postofl1ce Department. Therefore
take the liberty of suggesting that you
give this movement little support
and with your aid I believe the Wash
ington rooters can root the Senatorial
tribe out of last place and not get their
threats as raw as beefsteak.
Without your support l think Major
Sylvester and his cohorts would swoor
down and lay violent hands upon us for
breach of the peace. Therefore l earn
estly request that you give these ques-
tions favorable consideration and help
me out of this quandry.
Not to be inconsistent, I will close
this missive by asking another ques-
tion. Is this Washington team now
playing here the same one which opened
the season here and lead the league for
a week or so?

No Permit-No Work.

The work on the big half million dol
lar powerhouse and shed which the
Washington Electric and Power Com
pany purposes to erect at Fifteenth and
H Streets northeast has been delayed
because the company is having some
difficulty in getting the permit to go
ahead from the Commissioners.
According to the plans, this structure
will be a large affair, yet in the near
future it may be turned into one of the
greatest in the country. This will be
when the Washington, Baltimore and
Annapolis line is completed to that 10
cality. The Chesapeake Beach Railroad
has some rights in the property also, and
as the management is talking about
changing the motive power from steam
to electricity, it is easily seen just what
the structure may yet amount to.

More Mine Troubles.

This is not an advertisement for the
coal dealers. 1t is written as warning
to prevent, if possible, repetition of
the suffering that took place in Wash
ington during the long mine strike.
More trouble is brewing In the mining
regions. and it would not surprise the
well informed if the miners should tie
things up again.
According to reports, the miners and
President Baer are at 1t again. and the
dispute has reached that point where
Mr.. Baer has issued orders that if Ger
tain miners do not do certain things
they are to be dismissed forthwith.
For some reason not exactly clear at
this time the miners are not cutting
| enough coal TO keep the breakers going
nine hours day. It is said that the
miners prior to the strike worked about
Ave hours a day, but since that time they
have not been doing more than three
and a half hours work. Mr.. Baer says
that this action has so cut down the
production of coal that a shortage Is
likely. He made an investigation, when
he learned that the breakers were with
out enough coal, and when he learned
the cause he ordered the superintendent
of the mines to dismiss any man who
hereafter refused to put in five hours
work.
The miners are aware of the order,
and they have called the attention of the
Mine Workers Union to the trouble.
That organization is going to take up
the first dismissal, and what will hap
to get coal while ne may.

EVANSVILLE NOTES.

EVANSVILLE, Md, June 4.-The
Hyattsville Citizens Association held its
regular monthly meeting last night az
Masonic Hall. The attendance was not
large, but the discussion, mainly on the
subject of sewers, was interesting. The
sentiment seems to be in favor of the
construction OF an efficient system OF
sewers at the earliest practicable date,
and ii is believed if it could be demon
strated that such system can be had
within the bounding limits of the town,
the proposition would carry on a vote
of the citizens. Three applications for
membership were received. There will
be special meeting Wednesday even
ing. June II, at which it is desired
that every member shall attend.

Editor washington Times:

Sporting Editor Washington Times:
Finding myself in a dilemma and be-
Heving you can be of valuable assist
ance to me and others of my clan, I
take the liberty of propounding a ques-
ton which would respectfully ask you
to ponder over deeply and favor me
with an early answer.
To begin with, am a ''rooter''-a
baseball '-rooter.'' Some people say I
am crank" others are not so polite
and say am just plain, ordinary fool.
But in this particular case opinions
count for naught, and I do not deem it
essential that ! should tell you every
thing people call me, for I know you
have not the time nor the space, and I
have my doubts as TO whether cold type
could do justice TO some of the express
sions and terse sayings which l would
be constrained TO pen. But whatever my
pedigree may be, or what the neighbors
and fellow .'fatsmen" think of me, I am
q "rooter, as l have above stated, and
although others. who are 'crazier'' on
the game OF baseball than I, might be
ashamed to acknowledge II, candor com
and it's good, hard, telling roofing, too
for the erstwhile Senator'S. No. They
are not winning the pennant this sea-
son, but have it sub rosa from Mana
ger Lotus own lips that Washington
will have better team next year.
Slips His Trolley.
I wish To beg pardon for getting of
the track I started off to ask you a
question, but number of other things
flashed across my brain and threw my
trolley off. don't you know. What I wish
TO ask you is this: Do you think those
horns that automobiles use on their
machines TO brighten the life out of all
the persons they cannot kill by running
over, would make good substitute for my
voice when go out to root? Now that
I have popped that question I will fur
Their transgress by asking this one: Dc
you think Major Sylvester's proteges
could make case of disorderly conduct
against me il took my little horn, kept
a tight-closed mouth, and simply squeez-
ed the rubber bulb whenever any of the
players made an exceptionally clever
play? To a man of your years and expert
ence these will in all probability bear
close resemblance TO useless questions,
but to a man like myself, who IS so alb
sorbed in the national game that he
tears his hair out when the Senators
lose. and one who is initiated into the
mysterious working of sporting editors
and ajor Sylvester's Finest" they are
not nonsensical.
