Too Much To Do.

"My wife has too much to do"
"Why don't you help her then?" "She
is not q woman who can be helped"
said the man YEARLY. "She is SO very
particular. and worries so over every
trifling bit of dust and dirt. If she
could take the rarge clear out every
Saturday, she would be better satisfied
than she is"
The husband put his finger on the
weak spot in some women's house
keeping. They are over-fastidious,
and do more than they need; they are
ever boastful of their extra nicely,
and do not reflect that they are reck-
lessly using up their strength and
vitality. When woman's excellent
house keeping kills her at forty five,
or, leaving her alive, transforms her
into a nervous wreck, making her a
b rden to herself and terror because
of ill-temper to her family, that sort
of housekeeping is fearful blunder.

What was the inevitable result!
When Mr.. Moody tried to advance
these Christian workers, whom some
people might have called his rivals, he
advanced himself into the hearts OF
sinful men and women as well as into
the chief human leadership OF the
Christian world. Many contemporaries
may have excelled him in individual
and particular gifts, but in mighty.
masterful leadership. In the fame and
eminence which will cause his name
to go down through the coming CEN
turtles as a Christian worker. in his in
nuence upon the men Of his day. Mr..
Moody stood head and shoulders above
all the Christian workers Of his time.
He won this enviable position because
he did not have a particle of jealousy

own aim in our treacherous dealings
with our hated rivals. The rattlesnake's
fang is a poor receptacle in which to
store the honey Of an orange blossom.
The most virulent forms Of madden
ing jealousy can often be found among
the old as well as among the young.
The superintendent Of the great In
sane asyiums will tell you that some Of
their patients have been living in
charge of their keepers for ten, twenty.
thirty and sometimes even forty or
6fty years. l remember, some years
ago. that / saw an old woman In the
Flatbush Insane asylum, who. | be-
Heve. bad been there for nearly fifty
years. She thought she was thf queen
of England, and she wore paper
cornucopia upon her head for crown.
She was there knighting her courtiers
and creating earls, marquises and
dukes out Of the attendants and Wis
itors. Just as she did when first brought
into the asylum many years ago. So
we find that the evil flames Of madden
ing jealousy can sometimes burn as
fiercely In the sinful hearts Of men and
women who have lived their twoscore
years and ten as In the hearts Of the
young who are just starting out in thu
struggle Of life.
Fathers and mothers and older mer
and women, l would not for momen

GEN. DUFFIELD COMES
TO SUBMIT HIS REPORT
Acted as Umpire For Venezuela'S
Mixed CommSS on.

NEW YORK. Oct. 6.-Gen. Henry NJ
Duffield was a passenger on the steam
ship Maracaibo. which arrived here this
morning from Venezuela. General Duff
field acted as umpire for the German
Venezuelan mixed commission, which
was appointed TO act On the claims pre-
sented by Germans against the Venezue-
Ian government.
General Duffield said that IN ali. sew
enty-three claims had been presented by
the Germans. but two of them had been
withdrawn. The commission held thirty
four sessions, and settled thirty seven
of the claims. The remaining thirty
four the commission could not agree
upon, and they were left to him TO de-
eide.
The general refused to tell what the
results OF his decisions were. but said
that he will make a detailed report to
the President at once. and this report
would probably be made public. All OF
the claims, he said. arose from damage
done to person and property in the
course OF the revolution in Venezuela
and from the closing of the Catatatombc
and Deulia Rivers
General Dufiield departed Immediately

DISTRICT PRISONERS
COSTING MUCH MONEY
Appropriations for Next Fiscal Year
Asked by Attorney General.

The Commissioners received today
from Attorney General Knox a list of
items which he requests be included in
the estimates to Congress for the ex-
penses OF the District OF Columbia for
the fiscal year ending June 30, 1905. The
items cover work to be done by the At
torney Generals Office. for the District,
and the maintenance of institutions and
persons chargeable TO the District
A request is made for $4,000 for
maintenance of the District Jail and for
support OF prisoners therein. This is a
large increase over the current appro-
priation. which. the Attorney General
says, is due TO the marked increase in
the number Of prisoners. There was an
actual deficiency under the appropria-
tion for 1903 of $1.44126, and it is es-
timated there will be a deficiency of ST.
600 under the current appropriation
For the support, maintenance, and
transportation Of convicts transferred
from the District. the sum of S45, 900 is
needed; for salaries OF employees at the
court house, S13. $50; for defending suits
in the United States Court of Claims

TRIAL FEES CHARGED
BY JUSTICES OF PEACE
District Auditor Submits Report
for Fifteen Months.

The iong-looked for report Of the
Auditor OF the District on the condition
of the monthly accounts Of the justices
of the peace was submitted to the Com
missioners today. The period covered is
from January, 1902, TO and including
June 80. 1903. The result follows:
Fees in ordinary trial cases charged
as per audit, S32, 1885; moneys received
for performing marriage ceremonies.
charged as per audit. $3.50; total. $780,
1855; amount deposited with the Col
lector of Taxes. ss2.21141; difference.
S524.44.
The above difference, s524.44. arises
from sundry short credits, and underde-
posits, and unsettled accounts, by eight
of the justices, which amounts have
been charged to them, respectively, in
the audit by this office. subject to the
final decision OF the Auditor for the State
and other Departments in his settlement
of said accounts.
THE work of verifying the returns
was largely increased because of the
fact that the justices do NOT render
itemized returns. showing the items OF
fees which make up the total in each
case, but report only the total amount
OF fees in each case without itemizina
the same.
1.-The delay IN the examination was
further enhanced because some OF the
justices do not keep itemized dockets
showing each fee earned ana collected
in every case"

URGES INSPECTION OF
MEAT IN COOLERS
AS Bad as Embalmed Beef,
Western Dealers Say.
POISON IN STALE GOODS
Not Wholesome After One Months
StoTage-Effect of Freezing
Injurious

..Embalmed beef is not the only un-
wholesome product the packers sell.
Much of the storage beef used through
out the United States is so old that 1t
is actually poisonous. said Walter
Pfeifer, of st. Louis. vice president of
the Western Retail Butchers Protective
Association. Meat is kept in coolers
until it has mold all over it, This is
poisonous OF course It is partially
washed of with soda and other prepara-
tions known to cooks before it is used.
Government inspection of all meat
kept in coolers should be required and
must come in time. Meat is not whole
some after it has been kept for more
than a month. 1t is tender. but much
of it's flavor leaves it; 1t frequently gets
a bad taste and undergoes changes
which make 1t unfit for food. The freez-
ing Of meat to preserve it should not be
permitted Much OF the nutriment is
taken from meat by freezing.
Thorough Government inspection o1
all meat in coolers should be required
without delay The great packers are
not the only dealers who keep their meal
too long Cold storage houses OF al
sorts-those belonging to packing house;
and to smaller dealers-should be sub
jected to careful inspection by Govern
ment experts.
mo meat should be kept longer thar
a month. 1t is apt to become stale aftel
that length OF time unless frozen Al
meat in coolers should be tagged anC
submitted TO the inspection OF Govern
ment experts who should have access Il
all storage places"

These tabulations will be elaborated

the six years of his incumbency the ag-
! gregate financial transactions which have
| been audited and settled in the bureau
amount to s. 600, 10000. Handling these
