The Crown Mill Company is
buying about $4,000 pounds Of
wheat a day. Last year this
company bought 1000, 900 pounds
of wheat, and the crop in this
vicinity was short at that. This
years crop is still shorter and the
grade is not so good as usual be-
cause of damage by the chinch

procured the license, and then TO For

LIGHTS ON THE AVENUE
NOT OUT BEFORE DAY BREAK
Inspector Fishers Reply to Superinten-
dent Suffers Complaint.

The Inspector of Electric Lighting for
the District has taken issue with the
Superintendent OF Street Cleaning War
ner Stutler. in the matter OF the early
extinguishing of the city's electric
lights. Superintendent Stutler made
complaint a week ago that the lights
went out on Pennsylvania Avenue be-
tween Ninth and Tenth Streets north
west. before daybreak and as a conse-
quence the flushing apparatus which was
in operation at the time. could not do
it's work properly
Inspector Fisher denies the charge ard
incioses to the Commissioners q letter
from the Potomac Electric Light Com
pany showing the lights were not eXtin-
guished until AIS. or twenty-five min
utes after daybreak. He says no reports
by the police were made concerning the
lights being out, and that they were noted
lighted at 3:45. At 1890 an inspector
reported the flushing gang On the Ave.
nue. between Thirteenth and Fourteenth
Streets, leaving three hours and fifty
five minutes to flush from Thirteenth 10
Ninth Streets. THE statement is I'M
just" says the inspector. and seems an
effort TO throw the blame OF poor work
on a condition which did not exist"

Information for Fishermen

Rock and catfish are plentiful in the
Potomac. and big catches are being
made daily.
Yesterday Fred Knott had q run of
luck at the Big Eddy" catching nearly
twenty Live pounds of rock. All the Of
fce-s OF the Seventh precinct station
spend their spare time in the vicinity
OF the Aqueduct Bridge, where they are
fishing with trot lines. officers Connors
BuTkett. and Saunders have about two
hundred hooks on their lines.
Down around Gcorgetown's wharves
there have been big catches OF catfish
made in the last day or two. The Mis-
sissippi cats" have either driven away
the Potomac cat'' or multiplied so nu-
merously that the latter is rarely seen.
The Mississippi catfish grows to a very
large size. Aside from their weight.
they are distinguished from the local
fish b. a number of white spots on the
side
While those whose recreation hours
are limited fish in the vicinity of the
Aqueduct Bridge, old-time fishermen
spend their hours VI in the swift water
near the Chain Bridge. Only the large
fish have strength enough to breast the
current. consequently the fish near ths
Chain Bridge are larger in size.
Down around Street wharves thsrr
were probably fifty fishermen testing
their luck yesterday. but it is declared
that the discharges from the gas house
have very noticeable effect upon the
flavor OF the fish; gas tar odor being dis.
tinetly noticeable even after the fish is
cooked.
The bait principally used for the cat
fish IS fresh meat

Oriental view of womanhood.

The oriental idea of the freedom
which American women enjoy does not
accord with that Of Americans. One
Hindoo Lady expressed herself as great
~ shocked that American men should
compel their women to go about In
public unprotected, their faces exposed
to the gaze of strangers, and a Hindoo
gentleman with whom we talked thus
expressed himself on the subject OF
oriental treatment of women:
"You say that we do not honor our
women. Why, let me tell you that all
Hindoo boys, till they are ready to
learn the ways of men, are taught by
their mothers. We are subject to our
mothers. and we know what you occt-
dentals do not yet seem to r~ealize-that
to have good men and good citizens
we must have good mothers. You win
hardly find a Hindoo man, whatever
his caste, daring to go against the
counsel of his mother. Can you say as
much for American men?"
Could as much, do u readers think.
be said for American men? There are
no asylums for helpless fathers and
mothers in the orient. So long as there
Is a corner and q crust to be shared the

NEW SCHOOL

added two new school districts. 1t is just
about two years ago that Wildwood was
made a district by itself and a few weeks
ago Woodbine was made a school district.
1t will be noted that the two new dis
tricts follow on to the end of the list in
alphabetical order. But the adding of
new districts does not illustrate the adj
vancement of educational facilities in the
county. This can best be illustrated by
the increase in the number of teachers.
In 1896 there were Go teachers employed
in the county and according to County
Superintendent Hands report of this year
there will be SO teachers during the school
year of 1903-4.-Cape May Wave.
