GENTLEMAN GEORGE" GONE.
Enterprising Burglar Gets Long Term
for His Crimes,

A dispatch to the Baltimore Sun from
New York. last night is as follows: Twenty
three years in state prison was the aggre-
gate of the sentences meted out to Harry
Brooks, alias George Robinson, or Gentle
raigned in part / of the general sessions
court before Recorder Goff today.
Brooks has committed thirty-nine burg
laries in short time. He was led into court
and placed at the end of d long line Of
prisoners awaiting sentence shortly after
the recorder took his seat on the bench.
Brooks was conspicuous because he was
much more neatly dressed and not of such
low grade of intelligence as the m1Scelian-
eous assortment of crooks and other prison.
erS among whom he stood
There was a long wait before his turn
came, during all of which he remained with
his head bowed and his fingers twtching
his straw hat. The piStol-Shot wound he
sufficiently to allow him to discard his
crutches but he still walked with a de-
cded limp.
The recorder, in imposing sentence, said
For the offenses for which you have been
indicted you could be sentenced to forty
three years Imprisonment. / have received
word from the detective bureau, members
of which asked that clemency be extended
to you because of what you have told them.
| do not propose to sentence you upon all
the indictments. but only for three of
them
The recorder then imposed the sentence
of twenty-three years Imprisonment.
Brooks Is twenty-nine years old His
mother and sister had come on from New
Haven. Conn. and were in the court room
but the recorder had them excluded before
lie passed sentence. They were weeping.

AGAINST UNION STATION ACT.
Northwest Suburban Association En-
tiers Protest-Other Business.

Following the action of the East End Su-
burban Citizens Association. the North
west Suburban Citizens Association. Tits
meeting last evening at Masonic Hail. Ten
leytown. adopted resolutions protesting
against the action of Congress in levying
a part of the expense incident to the build
ing of the union station upon the people of
the District of Columbia
The resolution was submitted by Mr.. II.
S. Jones. and its submission was followed
by several addresses. Mr.. Louis P Shoe
maker president of the Brightwood Citi
zens' Association, who made a speech
against the bill Thursday evening at the
meeting of the East End Association, was
in attendance last evening and made some
remarks. He declared that whereas Con-
gress during all the period which Tenley-
town had been a suburb of Washington
refused TO provide for proper sanitary con-
ditions in the suburbs on account of the
enormous expense, and that accordingly the
District taxpayers now are too poor to pay
a million or two dollars to the railroad com
panies that they may transact business in
the District.
The lack of fre-fghting facilities in the
northwesterly section of the city re-
viewed and resolution prevailed urging
that the city engines cannot arrive in Ten
leytown in time to be of much service in
time of fire and that by the installation of
fire plugs along the water main, the resi-
dents of that section will be afforded more
protection against the ravages of flames.
The need of fire engine company in Ten
leytown was regarded as imperative A
letter embodying the desires of the associ-
alton along this line Will be sent TO the
Commissioners.
The association also adopted resolutions
extending it's sympathy to President Lam
caster upon the death of his wife, and to
the family of William d. Heider. in respect
TO his death; urging the opening OF Abe
marie street from Connecticut avenue to
Rock Creek Park; urging the installation
OF electric lights on Chesapeake street. and
for the conversion of the Josiah Pierce
mansion in Rock Creek Park into a
museum
The estimates submitted by the executive
committee make provision for the macad-
amiZing Of Erie. Chesapeake and Forty
ninth streets, a portion of Wisconsin ave-
nue. and several country roads. and for
the extension and construction of trunk
sewers in the northwesterly section.

ments for the knights of Labor excursion
to Marshall Hall Labor day met at the
rooms of the Workingmens Library Asso-
citation last night. Quite a number of
events were added to the program. The
committee decided that the events sched-
uled should commence with the arrival OF
the first boat and continue without inter-
ruption until darkness. The base ball con-
test will be first on the schedule. A dis
pute having arisen as to the right of either
team going outside the ranks of organized
labor for players, decision was rendered
that to be eligible to contest for the cup
donated by The Star Newspaper Company
the teams must be composed of members of
organized labor.
After the base ball contest several races
for boys, girls and adults will take place.
The wild pig chase promises to be unique
feature. A thoroughbred porker of the
razor-back species was reported to have
been secured Egg and potato races. also
hot sausage grabbing contest with hands
tied for boys and girls. are on the schedule.
Sack and three-legged hurdle races for
adults and boys will all tend to make, as
the committee expressed it. 'just what the

HYG1EN1c RULES FOR BARRIERS.
New York Would Diminish Danger of
Infection With Disease.

From the New York Herald.
Some of the BARRIERS in this city are IN
clined to rebel against the enforcement OF
the health board rules governing the hy-
giene Of their shops That there should
he no reason or excuse for such stand
is obvious enough. There is no argument
against cleanliness no matter how much
extra time, trouble or expense is incurred
in enforcing it. When there is an extra
danger of propagating disease by the neg
lect of such hygienic precautions there
should be nolregulation too stringent and
too sweeping to compass the end Indicated
The ease with which skin affections OF
the most loataiSOm& character have been
spread by th9razer, brush and comb has
been often enough commented upon by
medical specinlstSG There is relation
of cause and saffecttin the spread of such
eruptions which istbeyond question dem

is a striking ssamfae in point, and so are
many of the other cltaneous ailments that
are apt to be looked upon as innocent In

ever have ansf eGeot upon the public mind
in persuadingIS oeghange its views on the
value of aSeisASs as safeguard against
skin and scalDe diseases.
The best of aHz faasons for the enforce
ment of the new regulations is that they
can be so easily carried out In fact, they
should appeal to our tonsorial artists even
on common ethical grounds. 1t Is merely
applying the surgical rule OF action to men
who use surgical instruments. The cardi-
nal principles of aseptc contact must be
comprised in clean hands. clean instru-
ments and clean wounds. To secure these
conditions The health board insists that
certain simple rules of easy fudfllment
shall apply to the thousands of BARRIERS
who otherwise from mere careiessness
might spread disease among their inEo-
cent and unsuspecting customers. The
only surprise is that such measures have
not been adopted long ago
1t is only necessary to consider how con-
ia gion may be spread by the usual inpie-
ments of the barber to appreciate the full
force of the argGnent for the new law.

have since been abandoned on account of
a lack of funds. Another appropriation by
Congress may secure their completion
within a few years.

the adjoining hospitals, which thus

The other buildings are of nearly one
size, ranging from about 13O to $50 feet

they would be ready for occupancy Mr..
Charles +. Potter. the superintendent of
construction. said he would be through with
all of them by the middle of the winter. and
that he supposed the grading of the sur
rounding grounds. the laying out of parks,
paths and driveways and the furnishing OF
the buildings would be commenced imme-
diately If this is done. he said, they will
be in full use by spring.
The fourteen buildings in three
groups. the first situated to the south of the
old buildings which stand on the western
portion of the grounds. the, second on the
eastern portion. on the south side of Nichols
avenue. along which runs the Congress
Heights trolley line, and the third across
the avenue outside of the wall which in
closes the grounds proper.
If the present plans are carried out.
subway will connect the second and third
groups. 1t will extend under the road. and
enable persons to pass to and fro without
being hampered by the traffic on the high
way. The principal buildings. including the
administra ton building, belong to the sec
ond group.
Stupenduous Work.
The work of constructing this small city
has been enormous. At times many as
400 workmen have been employed, though
now the force Is being cut down every week,
as the work nears an end. Yesterday there
were between 300 and 300 employees on the
job.
When it is completed the government in
stitution will undoubtedly be one of the
largest and finest of it's kind in existence.
The immense estate which belongs to it ex-
tends from the edge of the Eastern Branch
Of the Potomac up the hill and back for
mile or more including much land that has
great possibilities. When the part now dis
figured by the necessary building opera
tions has undergone the improvements al
ready put upon the older portion the estate,
with its naturally excellent situation, will
be beautiful park can be found near
almost any city. The possibilities and grow
ing importance of the institution hos

portant feature in the government works
in the future.

still having difficulties in the matter of con-
structing the proposed new Columbia school
house near Arlington. Judge James NJ.
Love Wednesday last approved the title to
an acre lot that had been selected by vote
of the people, we'll as by the school
board and by an appeal board, but the title
to the lot was contested by parties living
on Fort Myer Heights, and an appeal was
noted from Judge Loves decision to the
circuit court of the county. The parties
from Fort Myer section of the county say
they will throw every obstruction they can
in the way of building the Columbia school
until provision is made for building a
school house on Fort Myer Heights The
trustees, Mr.. A. p Douglas, Charles B.
Munson and W. c. Shelly, decided that they
could not commence building the new
structure until the appeal is decided by Cir
cult Judge Nicol or the appeal was with
drawn. Trustee Shelly spoke at some
length, saying he regretted to see the fac
tional fight between different sections of the
county, and was also sorry that the school
board could be- by technicalities and ap-
peals delayed in the work of building school
houses
Superintendent James E. Clements was
present, and emphatic in his express
sion of regret One portion of the county.
he said, is fighting the other about which
section should have the school house He
said this simply delayed matters neither
section getting school house. He believed
the present school board was q good one
and If left to its discretion would build a
fine school house, both on Columbia turn
pike and at Fort Myer Heights. He spoke
earnestly for peace and harmony and Of
fered a resolution which was laid over for
special consideration, at a meeting to be
held at Ballston on Monday next at 7:3O

Heights; and this board is further author
lied to. not later than sixty days from this
date, select and purchase a suitable site or
lot on Fort Myer Heights for school
house. the lot not to cost more than 81 800:
provided. however, that all objections to the
building of the proposed new Columbia
school house be withdrawn. so that this
long-delayed and much-needed Columbia
school house may be Immediately COM
menced and constructed"

A. White, the newly appointed supernten-
dent of the hospital while making a hasty
survey during short visit last Thursday,
remarked that these build ngs were hand
somer than any he had seen.
The structures are built of red brick, wit
Indiana limestone trimmings. They have
tiled roofs. and. completed. will have tiled
floor in all bath rooms and dining rooms
granolithic floors in all easements and serv-
ice rooms. and North Carolina pine floors
In all other rooms. There will be slate
partitions in all lavator!es. and stairways
will be of iron. Every building is two stories
high, except the administra ton bu .lding
which has four stories.
Meet All Needs.
1t is designed that they shall meet every
need of the institution, and to this end sep
arate quarters have been provided for each
class of patients. In addition to the admin
istration and culinary buildings and a new
home for female nurses and employees, there
are two hospitals for male and one for
female patients; two cottages for medium
class male inmates and two for medium
class female inmates; a cottage for male
epileptics and one for females, building
for male inmates classed as .'disturbed' and
one for similarly afflicted female inma tes,
and building to be devoted to untidy and
destructive male inmates. Rooms of some
of the buildings are provided with windows
having shutters of armor plate one-fourth
of an inch thick, through which there is a
three-eighths of an inch hole for the admis-
sion of light. Rooms thus fitted are to be
occupied by violent patients.
The two hospitals mentioned are on either
side of the administration or office building,
which is to be the home of the superintend-
ent and are connected to it by two colon
nades of white unornamented columns, up
holding a peaked roof, and also by two tun-
nels eight feet wide by eight feet high
Each of these hospitals is elaborately equip
ped. the operating rooms being lined with
white Italian marble.

The home of the chief is by far the most
striking structure in the whole group. 1t
is much larger than the others, has a front
portico with large white stone pillars and
will have more stone on the exterior and
marble in the interior. and will have beau
tiful mosaic floors in all of its principal cor

Peculiarities of Fish.

There are two popular delusions about
