Resolution Adopted That F Street Be

The meeting OF the Northeast Wash

was taken up with discussions on the
proposed crosstoWn railroad and the ad-
vantages to be derived from kicking
against things believed TO be wrong.
=. b. Rose. a member of the assocIa-
zion. said kicking was the real source
and inspiration OF material progress. He
hoped that his association would never
give up its licking tactics when it was
evident that such procedure would ac-
compiish good.
This sentiment was touched on by
Barry Bulkley, who WAS invited 20 aJ-
dress the meeting. He expressed the
opinion that kicking might be- carried
too far, and counseled his hearers 10
always think wei before going TO Con-
gress and the District Commissioners
with needless complaints. He cougratu-
lated the organization that its efforts
had resulted in the establishment OF i've

1868. where he was placed on charge OF
murder, and now have him on trial at
Keokuk for a crime committed thirty
six years ago.
On July 5, 1868, Cackley is said TO
nave shot and killed Constable Reuben

Shortly after his arrest and confne-
ment in JAIL Cackley escaped, and moth
ing was heard of him until a short time
ago. Being a veteran Of the civil war,
he applied for a pension. but, instead
of using his own name, he took that
of john Beck. who was in the same
company with him. and whom he
thought dead.
John Beck. however, happened to be
living, and is now drawing a pension.
The case came before the Pension Of

tablished The Iowa authorities heard
of it and promptly arrested the fugi-

Complaint has been made to District
Commissioner Macfarland by Supt. W.
A. White that the health and medical
officers at the Government Hospital. for
the Insane cannot issue birth or death
certificates that VIII be accepted by the
local authorities.
Health officer Woodward. to Whom
the matter was referred. says the birth
certificates have always been received

were issued by the medical authorities
Of the Hospital for the Insane.
Should Be Recognized.
He suggests, however. that the bill
providing for the better registration of
births and deaths in the District be so
amended as 10 allow these medical
officers to issue certificates of death
so that they may be received and acted
on by the Health Department. he ex-
plains that II the medical officers at the
institution are entitled 90 practlGe meQi-
cine in the District, their death ceru-
tcates should receive the proper atten-
ton. Otherwise, the officers cannot IS
sue such certificates

Commissioner mcfarland has ap-
