USING HARD COAL.
Contractor for Pennsylvania Avenue
Sewer Changes Fuel.

The conditions complained of yesterday
by Mr. Norman Gait and other business
men located on the north side of Pennsyl-
yania avenue between 18th and 18th
streets, in connection with the emission OF
black smoke and fine cinders from the
portable engine used in the construction OF
the low area sewer along the south side
Of the avenue, were remedied by Contractor
Saxton today by the use of hard instead
of soft coal in the engine.
Mr.. Saxton began experimenting with the
hard coal last evening, and while he states
that it is not nearly so serviceable for his
purposes as soft coal, and that there is
danger that the use of hard coal will result
in the burning out of the engines fre-box,
yet he says that he will use hard coal in
the engine, at least until the sewer work
has proceeded west of 18th street. Mr.. Sax
ton stated to a reporter for The Star today
that he is anxious to do everything reason
able in his power to prevent unnecessary
annoyance and inconvenience to the public
while the construction of the sewer is in
progress.
The citizens and District authorities ex-
pressed themselves highly gratified with
the disposition shown by Contractor Saxton
to prevent damage and annoyance to the
public.

The Color of Jefferson's Hair.
a clever kind of a story as to President
Jefferson and Candidate Parker is being
told around among White House attaches.
The story Is that some members of the
Union League Club. in New York, were
recently discussing the question OF the
color of Judge Parker's hair One man as
serted that 1t was red. while another de-
clsred 1t was sandy. Then the sandy
haired advocate asserted:
Ihere never was a red-headed President
OF TINS country and there never will be-
10 which the other man responded: JEFF
ferson was red-headed. and there will prob
ably be other red-headed men President of
tho country"
The talk resulted in a bet of 500 that
Jenersons hair was not red and a commit
tee OF five was appointed to come to WASH
inRton to officially determine The conf
mittee, so the story goes recently reached
mere and spent some time in the red room
OF the White House looking at he portrait
or JEFFERSON hanging there. They then
Went to the Congressional Library, where
a long Investigation followed. with the re-
suit that the conclusion was reached that
JEFFERSON had sandy hair and did not have
hirsute outfit of lobster hue. The ques-
ton OF the color Of Parker's hair was lost
in the dispute.
The chief usher of the White House does
not remember about the visit Of the COM
mtttee. but says 1t could have been made
without his being aware of it.
Judge Parker is generally credited with
having sandy hair and dark red mustacne
that is becoming to his face Red-headed
men in some parts of the country are SAID
TO be organizing clubs for him and to have
gotten out platforms declaring that 1t was
time that one red-headed man should De

Instructive and Interesting.

Rev Tileston F. Chambers. First Baptist
Church. Saratoga, N. Y, formerly of this
city. writes: I'm day when the book mar
ket is flooded with cheap literature of
doubtful purpose. low moral tone and crude
workmanship, it is a delight to find writer
who can handle sacred subjects with rev.
erence and honesty, draw characters that
are at the same time attractive and ad-
mirable, and tell tale that is both instruc-
tive and interesting.
"A novel Of this sort disproves the widely
accepted opinion that a book to be strong
must needs be bad. AS one who loves a
good story, / have keenly enjoyed The
Yoke To the clergyman seeking a book
that may be recommended without reserva-
ton 1t comes as real boom"
Don't you think such story will be
worth reading? 1t will appear as a daily
serial in The Evening Star, beginning next
Saturday.

THE WEST FOR ROOSEVELT.
Gus A. Schuldt's Observations Regard
ing His Recent Trip.

Mr. Gus A. Schuldt of this city, who re-
Gently went to Indianapolis to attend the
convention of the National Republican
League of the United States as represen-
tative of the American Republican College
League, the Old Boys, Jr., and various
local state republican clubs, has returned
to the city.
At the convention at Indianapolis Mr..
Schuldt was elected a member of the exec
utive committee Of the league, and is the
only Washingtonian ever accorded that
honor After the convention Mr.. Schuldt
took an extensive western trip and made
an extended investigation Of the political
situation. In an interview with a Star re-
porter today Mr.. Schuldt said:
1.-The west Is enthusiastically for ROose-
welt Indeed, 1t takes his election as a
matter Of course, and there Is, therefore,
not much political excitement as Is the
case when there is close election on. This
talk of Indiana going democratic Is ridicu-
lous 1 made it a point to speak with
men of every condition of life and the
answer was uniformly Indiana will give
Roosevelt some 10000 sure The recep-
ton that Secretaries Shaw and Taft re-
ceived in Indianapolis during the National
Republican League convention was some
thing remarkable. Tomilson Hall, the
largest hall in the city. was crowded to
the doors and thousands Of persons were
clamoring for admission. Up In Indian
apolis. where Tom Taggart IS known and
liked the best. his townspeople and friends
shake their heads and say there is no
use of Tom wasting his time here.
The west Is prosperous. happy and con-
tented and intends to stay so. This being
so the people naturally ask themselves
why change They seem to have no de-
sire to experiment with fads and fancies.
Why. even In Missouri one Is told that
that state will surely go republican and
one hears everywhere the Injunction. Keep
your eye on Missouri

Helped Himself to Bicycles.

Thomas Patterson. neatly dressed young
man, was in the dock of Judge Kimball's
court this morning because he helped him
self to bicycles owned by Edwin Giles and
Frank Mccullough. Detective Trumbo had
the wheels in court as evidence, but it was
lot necessary Tor him to exhibit them as
the proof against the defendant was SO
conclusive that he entered no denial to the
accusation. In each case fine of 800 was
imposed and as the stranger did not have
the 5000 he went down to spend year with
Warden Harris at government expense
Patterson is native of England and has
been in this country only seven months. On
his way back to the cell he remarked:
