dition during the coming fiscal year to war
rant actual station building construction,
but in any event 1t will be advanced to the
point Of placing 1t on par with the great
governmental constructions which In few
months will all be under way in one form
or another.
Besides the provision for buildings for
which sites have already been chosen or
are in immediate view or in the form OF
park space. the bills carry provision for
two additional building projects which
doubtless by another session will assume
tangible form, that for an addition to the
Post Office Department. occupying an entire
square Immediately in the rear Of the pres
erlt structure, and that for a Hall of Rec
ords on a square lying west Of the War
Department building. The cost limit of, the
Hall of Records is fixed at 100000. The
former item Is in line with the general
scheme for the Districts proper develop
ment, and Is to be commended If
it results in the erection of an artis-
tic building and not a mere block
of masonry solidly filling the ground from
curb to curb. 1t is to be regretted that the
Hall of Records was not emplaced within
this same general area, the so-called Mall
avenue triangle, where 1t would be not only
most convenient to the majority of the de-
partments, but feature of the general
park development project. The site chosen
will place it an inconvenient distance from
the Interior, Post Office and Agricultural
Departments, and will remove 1t from all
relationship to the artistic scheme of build
ing groups.
Taken all in ALL the District will prosper
and advance materially toward the realiza-
ton of the founders and builders OF the
capital as a result of this sessions work.
1t is to be hoped that next year provision
will be made for a building for the now
homeless Department Of Commerce. and
that the bill for the Supreme Court building
will be passed. Then will the government
indeed get well started toward providing
itself for the first time In its history with
a proper public building equipment.

The Lesson of Ithaca.
From the Chicago Post.

From the Chicago Post.
What makes for municipal ownership?
We have answered the question many
times. Not the theoretical advocacy of col
lectivism any scale, but the abuses Of
shortsighted private enterprise, must be
considered to be the real and principal
cause of the extraordinary growth Of the
sentiment for municipal socialism. Ithaca
has just furnished an object lesson, an Illus
trat,on of this view OF the situation. The
city voted yesterday on the question Of
municipal ownership of its waterworks, and
the decision in favor of taking over the
public utility was practically unanimous.
But thirty votes were east in the negative.
1t is certain that the present typhoid cpl
demfc accounts for the sudden change In
public opiniOn

A Hint Of Summer.

Never mind the weather, though the wind
may chide,
Never mind the snowdrifts that have made
the roses hide;
For there comes CLEAN of sunshine where
the barren branches fret,
And we're glad to know that the supply is
not exhausted yet.
With serious apprehensions lingering round
our coal and beef,
This springtime sign of plenty brings a
feeling of relief.
And we contemplate the future with emo
tions that are bland,
For We'll still be getting sunshine at the
same old stand.

So Said Robert Fitzsim- -
mons. Found the Tunnel
Baths Possessed Wonder
full Healing Qualities. - -

When 1 visited this city my shoulders
stiff that it panied me to bend it. As
soon as we arrived in the city Mr.. Tef
fries and l were driven to the tunnel and
after remaining there for nearly an hour
I could notice that the sore parts were
considerably relieved. So much better
did feel the next morning that 1 again
decided to try conclusions with the nat
ural heat. To tell you the truth 1 made
an almost complete recovery, and if it
had been possible to remain longer 1 GER
tainly should have done so. If, in the
near future, it should be my good for
tune to have few days or weeks on
hand which are not taken up with en-
gagements I will again visit the city and
remain the entire time taking the tunnel
aud hot soda baths. There is nothing
finer in the world"
AS everyone knows Fitz is exceedingly
bald on the spot where the hair ought to
be, but he had remedied this fact by pur-
chasing a wig. When the noted pugs
alighted from the train the people who
made it point to be present were sur
prised at the youthful appearance of the
ex-champiou. Many did not know that
he was the owner of one of the best made
wigs THAI money could buy. But those
who attended the show learned for them
selves that he was not as young as he
used to he.

Their event had been heralded to the

had never had the opportunity of seeing

ing the trains for their arrival
The exhibition which was given was

eral lively preliminaries had been ar
ranged, and the audience was we'll enter
tanned.
During their stay in this city both
gentlemen tried the hot tunnel baths and
were loud in their praise of the wonder
full healing qualities. In speaking of the
tunnels and springs, Mr.. Fitzsimmons
had the following to say: They are
simply wonderful. 1t is a pity that the
field is not open to puglists in this state
whereby the right sized purses could he
offered If it was, l would advise every
puglist to select training quartersin Idaho
Springs in order that he might benefit by
the use of the tunnel baths. During my
career as fighter have had the oppor.
tunity of trying nearly all of the famous
natural Turkish baths in the world, but
in Idaho Springs find the effect mos
