CLEANLINESS. and Arsenic.

In Syria and Carinthia there is much
arsenic eating among the peasants. The
women take 1t to give themselves a
good complexion and to make their hair
fine and glossy. The men take it be-
cause they believe that it gives them
wind in climbing in the chase after
chamois. There is nothing Of this. sort
in Cornwall and Devon.
In Syria and Carinthia it is known
that an arsenic eater can never be bro
ken Of the habit and that If arsenic be
compulsorily kept from the eater death
rapidly ensues. 1t is believed in the
Tamar-and this is perhaps trueSha;
an arsenic worker Is at for no other
work. He must remain at this occupa-
ton. Health and breath fail him at
other employments. Eventually it may
be that chronic arsenical poisoning en-
sues. But this may be STAYED off, if not
wholly prevented, by scrupulous clean
illness, by care taken not only to wash
in the changing house, but to battle
freely at home. AS one of the foremen
said to the writer, Against arsenic the
best antidote is soap taken externally"

that property owners, capitalists
and business men In general of this

taken In the matter at once.

we'll said that he was a master OF
letters, an executive of unexam.
pied skill, diplomatist without a
peer, a statesman whose superior
was not to be found In all the
courts of Christendom. Above all
he was a friend of peace. His voice

his heart ever yearned toward uni
versal concord, and there never
went from him a word to stir up
strife or envious ambition. With
these attributes his place IN history
Is secure.

as the equivalent of bushel and
allowing 20 per cent for waste, the
yield of one acre will be found to
be ia, 22o bushels of coal and the
royalty at one.half cent a bushel,
$S71.1o. Multiply this $S71.1o by
$40, the number of acres in Sec

on royalty of half a cent $557,5o4,

BATHING BEACH CLOSED
UNTIL NEXT SEASON
All Boats in Use Yesterday by
ROwerS and Fishermen.

The bathing beach is closed Yester-
day was the last day OF the season, Su-
perintendent Stevens having received
the approval of the Commissioners in
his plan to close the beach and utilize
the remainder of the season in improv-
ing the basins for next year.
It was not too soon for this step. for
the cooler weather has reduced the at
tendance at the beach. sign announc-
ing the closing had been posted. telling
the regular patrons to take home their
suits. and the lighthouses yesterday aft
ernoon wore a deserted look
Not so the boathouse, however. Yes
terday was an ideal day for rowing and
fishing. and all the boats were in use
by the middle of the afternoon. The
water of the outer basin is now as clear
as that of the inner basin, and black
bass are biting .splendidly. Many fine
catches were made yesterday.
With no races or sporting events on
for this year, Superintendent Stevens
will use his force from now on in rid
ding the basins of grass and making
other necessary improvements, and
promises an ideal place for water sports
next season.

SCHOOLS TO REOPEN
ON SEPTEMBER 81
More Buildings Available for the Great Army of
Fifty Thousand Pupils.

Public schools in the District of Co
on Monday, September 21- The only ex-
ception will be the school at Takoma
Park. which will not be ready for the
reception of pupils until October is.
Night classes will be resumed October 1
at the Franklin, Greenleaf, and Gage
Buildings.
Four new eight-room buildings will he
and the new year will find the District
better prepared than ever to accommo-
date It's school children. These build
ings, with four-room additions to the
Brookland and Takoma Schools, respec-
lively, will practically eliminate great
inconvenience to pupils and teachers
the halliday session. For many years 1t
has been necessary to hold half sessions
in order to accommodate the number
of children admitted to the schools. but
the new buildings will now afford more
room and few half sessions will be nee
essary.
Fifty Thousand Pupils Probably.
II is expected that a larger increase IN
the number of pupils will be noted this
year than formerly. The average IN
crease each year is 900. The number Of
pupils accommodated last session was
about $4,000.
Some changes in the course of studies
will be made. though just what they are
to be is not known. The two courses
now in use Will be increased in he
higher grades by several more in order
The Washington times., 1903-09-07

to meet the requirements OF pupils. These
changes are to be decided upon at "a
series of meetings of the supervisors
Assignment of teachers to their respec-
tive schools will be made at a meeting
Of supervisors to be held September 1s.
The new schools will necessitate the
appointment of new teachers, and sew
eral vacancies, caused by designations
are yet to be filled. This will mean a
general shifting about of teachers and
appointment of new principals.
Plans for the new business high
school have been drawn, and work upon
the building will be begun in the fall.
The new school is to cost s175, 900. and
will be situated at Eighth Street and
Rhode Island Avenue northwest, on the
old rink site. Until the building is COM
pleted the business pupils will continue
to attend classes at the old school in
First Street northwest
Mckinley School Crowded.
The only difficulty that confronts the
board of trustees is the accommodation
of pupils of the Mckinley Manual Train
A'b SNANNiI a. SSNShth otiSSN anu NhooS
Island Avenue northwest. The school
Is equipped for 26O pupils. and $50 were
admitted last year. The extra number
were assigned to rented buildings. and
it will now be necessary for the board
to make additions or provide for pupils
as in the past. The success of this and
all the other manual training schools
was such that the board is anxious to
accommodate all who apply.
