ASSISTANTS COMPENSATION.
District officials May Be Employed by
Contractors

Contractors.
Controller Tracewell has written an opin.
ion for Major John Biddle, Engineer Com
missioner, saying that certain officials OF
the District may serve in the construction
of the new District building and receive ex-
ira compensation.
After looking over the facts presented the
controller says that the laws relating to
extra or double compensation would not ap-
ply In this case. The communication OF
Major Biddle to the controller is, in part,
as follows:
6, 1902, Congress provided for the purchase
of a site for and the construction thereon
of a municipal building for the District OF
Columbia. The act provided that such
building should be constructed by the Sec
rotary of the Treasury and the Commits
sioners of the District of Columbia, acting
jointly.
'',The site was purchased, the commission
was organized and selected Messrs. Cope
and Stewardson of Philadelphia as the
architects for the building. An agreement
with them among other things provided
that the commission reimburse to them the
actual cost of the services OF such expert
assistant or assistants as may be necessary
for the complete and economical des:g n OF
the mechanical equipment of the building,
including the heating, ventilating, lighting
and power plants.
"And that before engaging such assistant
or assistants Cope and StewardSon shall
submit the proposed rates of eompensa-
ton to the commission for approval.
1.-The architects on September %, 1908,
proposed as such experts two employees OF
the District Of Columbia, the superintend-
ent of the water department and the cleo
trical engineer, If their employment was
agreeable to the commission.
'As these two men were known to be
competent. and as their services could be
secured at a lower rate than outside serv-
ices equally competent, /. as executive Off
Ger of the commission. agreed to the propo-
sition of the architects"
The Commissioners allow their employees
to obtain outside employment when 1t does
not in any way interfere with their duties
as employees of the District.

THE VALUE OF CHARCOAL.
Few People Know How Useful 1t Is in
Preserving Health and Beauty.

Nearly everybody knows that char
coal is the safest and most efficient
disinfectant and purifier in nature, but
few realize its value when taken into
the human system for the same
cleansing purpose.
Charcoal is a remedy that the more
you take of it the better; it is not a
drug at all, but simply absorbs the
gases and impurities always present in
the stomach and inteStines and car
ries them out of the system.
Charcoal sweetens the breath after
smoking. drinking, or after eating
onions and other odorous vegetables
Charcoal effectually clears and i'm
proves the complexion, it Whitens the
teeth and further acts as a natural
and eminently safe cathartic.
It absorbs the injurious gases which
collect in the stomach and bowels: it
disinfects the mouth and throat from
the poison of catarrh
All druggists sell charcoal in one
form or another, but proba bIy the hest
charcoal and the most for the money
Is IN Stuarts Charcoal Lozenzes. they
are composed of the finest powdered
willow charcoal. and other harmless
antfsepdcs in tablet form or rather
in the form of large. pleasant tastine-
lozenges, the charcoal being mixed
with honey.
The daily use of these 1ozenees will
soon tell in a much improved condi-
ton of the general health, better com
pledcn, sweeter breath, and purar
blood, and the beauty of it is. that NO
possible harm can result from Their
continued use. but on the contrary
great benefit.
A Buffalo physician in speaking Of
the benefits of charcoal says: II adj
wise Stuart's Charcoal Lozenges 70 all
patients suffering from gas in stomach
and bowels, and to clear the complex-
ION and purify the breath, mouth and
throat; I also believe the liver is
greatly benefited by the daily use Of
them: they cost but twenty-five cents
a box at drug stores. and although in
some sense patent preparation. vet
believe I get more and better Charcoal
In Stusrt's Charcoal Lozenges than in
any OF the ordinary charcoal tablets"

LOREE TO HEAD MEXICAN LINES.
Deposed Rock Island Official May Be
at Head of Consolidated Lines.

New York, Oct 22.-Friends of L. F.
Loree, who was deposed from the Rock
Island presidency few days ago, say
that he is slated to head the proposed
consolidated system of Mexican rail-
roads.
This report receives much credence
because of the fact that Speyer & Co,
who practically control the Mexican
railroad situation, were mainly respon-
sibIe for Loree's election as president
of the Rock Island. The deposition of
Loree was taken in Wall street as an
indication that the Moores and their
associates of the Rock Island syndicate
have become independent Of the Spey-
erS.

noble old cathedralS and churches to be
found across the water.
NE. Kenna, being a railway solicitor

thousands of miles annually on railroad

through Topeka on the train would see
nothing of the beautiful homes, the
