WASHINGTON IN SPRING,
Vision Of Delight to Tourists From the
North.

MOTH.
Washington will be attired in a vernal
gown to greet the throngs Of Easter tour
lists expected this season. All over town
the shade trees are putting forth a fuzzy,
green understanding the precursor OF UNI
brageous foliage soon to be taken on. The
grass on lawn. park and front-door yard
is long and thriving. In the parks the
flower beds are blooming with pansies GRO
cuses and yellow and white products of
many names and powerful perfume.
Washington has been thronged for sew
eral weeks with visitors on their Easter
tours but the greatest crowd Is expected
in April and May, and by the middle OF
April the city will be decked in ap-
propriate spring attire. Most of the
visitors at this season Of the year
come from the north and east. where
the spring season Is a month or six weeks
later, and they are always delighted and
surprised to find the foliage out and the
air soft and balmy. There is a marked
difference in this respect between Wash
ington and New York, just five hours apart
by railway travel.

the big village and people were wearing

I suppose, and out of curiosity I strolled
out into Lafayette Park before breakfast.
Lo and behold, the park seemed just about
to spring into leaf and blossom: you could
almost hear the young foliage working out
of chrysalis and bud. The flower beds were
aglow with color and seeming the morning
air with perfume. And it was the latter

FIFTY CENTS A WEEK.
What He Would Do for the Support Of
His Child.

The provision made by the new code
which went into effect January Of last
year. for the punishment Of the father of
child under the age of sixteen years who
refuses or neglects to provide for the sup
port of his offspring, providing his finances
will permit 1t, has resulted in the forced
appearance of a number Of negligent
fathers before the Police Court to explain
their hardness.
Several days ago a colored man was
called to the bar Of justice and arraigned
on charge Of failing to support his baby
of eight months.
THAT man hasn't given me anything
since last November" the mother declared,
land then I had to have him arrested to
get It," with a scornful glance at her hus-
band. Il asked him for some money for
the baby about two weeks ago. and he said
he would give it an Easter outfit"
What's that?" the court asked. IAN
Easter OUTFIT"
YES sir. that's what he said he'd do"
why don't you sup port your child?" the
judge asked the defendant, in stern man
ner.
'I'm not making much money" the man
live"
Yes. and SO has the baby" the judge
answered.
But told my wife about two weeks ago
fit, and intend to do it."
Yes and more. too. or you'll go to Jail. I"
was the positive statement made by the
court.
How in the world do you expect the
baby to live from now until Easter with
the expectation Of getting q new outfit at
that time. and then what is 1t going to do
after that, because the child has got to
have something on the inside as well as the
outsider"
I'm give her 50 cents a week for the
baby, and it can go without the new
clothes" the father said.
Fifty cents week." his honor inquired.
why, that will hardly buy milk?'
But that's all that I'm able to give" thu
man declared.
Very WELL then, you can spend the next
six months In jail in default Of a fine Of
$50" the judge said. bringing the matter
to an end.
81 guess can give $3.50 a month. and
that's all" the neglectful father said when
he saw long term in Jail staring him In
the face.
That is a great deal better, and I'll sus-
pend the sentence as long as you keep your
word. but II you break II you will be slap
ped In jail so quick that It will make your
