JOHN HAYS REAL ESTATE.

Some of the fiat houses erected here
within the past year are both imposing
and costly. The most elaborate is
that owned by Secretary John Hay,
which will be ready for occupancy in
two or three months. It is located at
the corner of Connecticut avenue and
L street, one of the most fashionable
residential and promenade quarters in
the city, and nearly a block of pretty
good dwelling houses were torn down
to make room for this great ructure.
the total expense of which to Secretary
Hay will be about $1.OOO,OoO. He
started out to spend $65O,000, but now
does not hope to get off for less than
S1,OOOOOO.. To get reasonable re-
turn out Of this investment the secre-
tarv's agents have got to charge pretty
stiff prices for the apartments, much
sitter than any heretofore charged in
Washington. yet it is reported that
many Of the most desirable suits have
already been leased and that no trouble
whatever is experienced in filling the
house to the roof. Some of the fats
in this house will rent for as high as
$1,000 a year, which sets ~ new pace
for Washington rates, but then it is
New York people who are expected 10
pay it. o. H. p. Belmont, William &.
Hearst, and men of that class are
among those who have already leased
apartments in "Stoneleigh Court"
Mrs. Hays father was Amasa Stone
of Cleveland and Mr.. Hay was once
ambassador to the Court of st. james,
and one has also been taken by Secre-
tary Hays daughter, Mrs. Payne Whit
neyy, who will occupy it for several
months during the social season.
This is not the only real estate deal
that Secretary Hay has been giving
his attention to this summer. @e is
rather an extensive property owner in
the District Of Columbia, and among
other buildings is a large portion of
the square in the old "First Ward" as
it used to be called when the people of
Washington had the right Of suffrage,
which was once the most fashionable
part of Washington. -Letter to Provi-
dence Journal.

SHOES FOR DEFORMED.
Speciality Made of Footgear for Per.
sons with Crippled Feet and
Short Legs.

with all that is published about COM
fort for the feet and improvements made
by men in the regular trade said shoe
manufacturer in Brooklyn, nothing has
been said about men who make spe-
cialty Of extension shoes for cripples
and deformed persons. 1t is not so long
ago that it was almost an impossibility
for man with deformed foot or a
short leg to hide his misfortune. We all
remember the heavy, thick-soled blocks
with high heels, that made man feel
almost as uncomfortable as though he
had wooden leg. You see very few of
them now. Manufacturers have been i'm
proving on the extension shoe, as it is
called in the trade, by the use Of springs
and other contrivances, until they can
make deformed foot look very much
like any other foot, unless 1t is very
bad case. A man with one leg two or
three inches shorter than the other can
have a pair Of boots made so that no.
body need know it but his shoemaker.
Customers in our particular line have
as many pairs of shoes as other men, in
calf, tan and patent leather, and in all
the fashionable shapes, too. They have
to pay about three times as much for
them as men with both feet alike do:
that's all the difference"

The postof1ce department invest

The postof1ce department investi-
cation seems to have petered out com
pletely. If anything is doing at
Washington no man can find its out.
Since the statute of limitations let out
so many who ought to- be wearing
stripes, it seems to have paralyzed the
energies of the investigators. Thus
writes a Washington critic. Although
the grand jury in Brooklyn indicted
George w. Beavers for completely in
the frauds and populations in the post
Office department, no attempt has ever
been made to apprehend him and
bring him to the bar of Justice. It is
believed that the reason for this apa-
thy on the part of the government Of
ficials is that Beavers is another one OF
those temple pullers," and the pow
ers that be are not hunting for that
kind of game. 1t is a safe wager
that the last has been heard of sensa-
tional developments in the postoffice
investigation. 1t looks as though the
interior department would now be
come the center of activity in the seal
awag hunting line, but nothing will
ever be done there until there is @
change of administrati ton and a change
of the brand of politics.

There is some rather severe criti-
cism Of the president in political cir
Giles In the national capital on account
Of the recent naval review, says our
correspondent. That review ordered
by the president to be held practically
in his back yard in Oyster Bay, par
took very much OF the autocratic
methods Of the car or the kaiser. No
previous president ever ordered the
ships Of the American navy to come
to his home in order to review them
and make warlike speech to the Off
GERS and men of the navy. That re-
view, for which there was no need or
warrant, except to make holiday for
the inhabitants Of Oyster Bay, cost
the taxpayers of the country not less
than fifty thousand dollars for powder
burned in salutes TO the, commander
in-chief of the American navy. He
may next take a notion that he wants
to review the American army If he
does it will cost the people not less
than half million dollars to concen-
trate the troops for the review.

CHARTERING SPECIAL TRAINS.
Can BE Done Nowadays Almost ms
Easily as Checking Passen-
gers Baggage. 4

Special trains are becoming so fire.
Quent now that they attract little at
tention, except they make record runs
for long distances or unless there is
some trouble collecting payment ft,1
them" said a veteran railroad man.
to New York Times reporter. "Ten
years ago, when was division super
intendent on one of the big trunk
lines running out of New York, a
special train was an event that never
failed to get mention in the newspa-
pers. Stationmasters required ample
notice to get one in readiness, and
there was great deal of fuss making
arrangements along the line. At any
of the big railroad terminals in any
city now a man can get special en-
CINE and car to chase a f1ier almost
as easy as he can check his trunk.
Only a few minutes notice is re-
quired, and right Of way is obtained
for 100 or 200 miles along the line
without noticeably disturbing sched-
ule runs. A man who has to keep an
important business engagement, or a
woman hurrying to a sick husband,
pays 500 or double that sum for a
special with as little concern as pay
ing a supper check in swell hotel.
We live in rapid and extravagant
age, and grow accustomed to such
things"

AUTOMOBILE sORE-EYEs.
inflammation Caused by Rapid Passage
Through Dusty Road
ways.

It has been noticed that those who
ride much in automobiles are subject
to Inflammation of the outer coat of
the eye, known as the conjunctiva. This
form of Inflammation is called conjunc-
tivitis, says Medical Talk for the Home:
1t produces redness and soreness of
the inner side of the lids, both upper and
under, and on the white part of the eye
ball. A watery discharge occurs, the
veins are enlarged, and other disagree
able symptoms Of sore eyes are present.
1t is caused by the rapid passage
which hurls the particles of dust in the
air with great force against the eyes, as
well as cooling and drying the eye un-
naturally by the rapid motion.
Wearing goggles in a measure will
operate as preventive. But In spite
of this precaution many cases of auto
mobile sore eyes do occur.
Those who have been in the habit Of
indulging themselves in envy because
they could not afford to ride in automo-
biles can at least have the~consolation
that they are not liable to be afflicted
with automobile conjunctivitis

MONDAY, AUGUST 81, 1903.

The men engaged in the postal con-
spiracy to rob the government were
all, or nearly all, we'll fixed and mem
bers of the exclusive clubs Of the CITY.
They are like all the other things that
want to live without doing any useful
labor-would steal rather than work.
If they had their dues they would be
in prison, but as their friends are at
court they will not likely receive any
thing worse than getting a position
with some Of the corporations they
helped to rob the government. If a
poor man steals u few cents to keep
from starying-oh! the villain, to prfs-
on with him! But when those living
in luxury steal thousands, and are
caught red-handed, you must take off
your hat to them. Has the country
not been run long enough by such
people to satisfy the working class
majority :? asks the editor of Appeal to
Reason.

CoNvICrs AS BALL PLAYERS.
How it Helps the Discipline at
CharInSf0un


Baseball playing has been introduce
ed by Warden Bridges among the in
mates Of the Charlestown state prison,
with strikingly beneficial results. Not
only has the game given the prisoners
relaxation from cell life and the work
shop, but 1t has afforded a diversion
for their minds, a breath of fresh air
and look at the blue heavens above.
And not the least result of all is the
Improvement in discipline. No unruly
prisoner can participate in the game,
