lations now in force in Washington.

Of general importance. being merely

signs uniform throughout the lis

another change in the regulations
which the entire community will well

the police. the officers of the law are
powerless against drivers. who offend

Kreisburq and Family.

New York papers are mentioning
with pathetic detail the case of Louis
Kreisburg and family. This family
consists of wife and seven children,
the Oldest of the little ones being
only twelve.
The fact is much to be regretted
that the Kreisburgs, all and single,
have been hungry and hard pressed
for a place of shelter II is to be
hoped that the charity that kindly
came to their relief will not prove to
be of a spasmodic type, but will keep
up its efforts until the head of the
house has been put in the way 0f
earning living.
One feature of the situation is the
purely economic. Only a few months
ago Kreisburg brought his brood
from Austria As an intelligent man
he should not have done this with
out some assurance of a chance here
to maintain himself and the ones de-
pendent upon him. II there was to- be
occasion for his becoming a public
charge it is fairly to be concluded
that Austria was under greater obi
cation than the United States I'm this
respect Still, Kreisburg was not
wholly to blame.
II is permitted immigration agents
TO scour Europe in quest Of people
who are able to pay a modest fare
across. and these are dumped on this
side without much regard to their fit
ness. After once past the guards at
Ellis Island they are at liberty to eat
the bread of charity, far better plan
Of course, than permitting them to
suffer.
Still. it might be wished that TIT
impecunious foreigner with a wifi
and seven children would stay on the
other side, or that the restrictions b,
made Of such a character as to sug

General CoTbin's W ards.

General Corbin counsels that no
army officer be allowed TO marry
without the approving consent of the
War Department. He would have
the authorities assured that the
young woman in the case was in a
position to support a husband.
On the occasions when the general
himself has been a happy groom, it
is believed that he consulted his own
wishes and that of the other persons
concerned. In this he was within his
rights. His plan, just announced,
would deprive the officer of today of
participation in equal rights. There
fore, the plan is a presumption little
short Of affront

Saved bu Sour Milk.

A German scientist teVals sour milk
the elixir OF life There is comfort
in the thought If there is a particu-
lar human ambition It is to get hold
Of an elixir Of life and quaff deep.
However, the comfort is likely TO be
fieeting. Other scientists will take a
testing tube now and demonstrate
that sour milk reeks with organisms
almost as deadly as the mosquito
scatters while ne bills and COOS his
merry way.
The German thinks he has found in
sour milk a microbe Of particularly
benevolent disposition, and that CO.
pious indulgence in the stuff where
in this creature thrives will renew
youth, Danish ails, and send carkine
care in search of some one not adj
dicted 10 sour milk.
Probably a greater volume OF
The Washington times., 1904-09-21

serious nonsense has been written
concerning microbes than on any
other topic discussed in a decade.
Not that any person o. intelligence
would question the existence Of germ
life or deny that it must have a spe-
cifc effect The proofs are not only
absolute, but plain.
Certain germs flourish in impure
ties. To partake of polluted water is
a danger There is a germ of tuber-
culosis, but science has reached no
conclusion not disputed by science
as reputable. as to the capacity of this
germ for transmission or for transfer
through contact If those who are
most pronounced in their fears of
danger were correct there would be
no possibility of fretting about it, for
they would all be dead So would
everybody else. If there remained
life anywhere on the globe it would
be that of the ultimate, triumphant,
and lonely microBe, and he would be
starving.
According to the scared school of
germ enthusiasts there is nothing fit
for the race to eat drink, breathe,
wear, or touch. There is a blighting
contamination in all things material.
Meats, vegetables, and fruits become
active poisOns. Water is a trap to
| Stay the thirsty. Fabrics are devised
chiefly to harbor the invisible agen-
cies Of dissolution. AS for money
don't risk fooling with it. Coin and
paper alike harbor phthisis, fever
lumbago, and corns. What's the good
of cash anyhow? At best it can only
be exchanged for something else full
/ of bugs
Good luck to the man who finds an
elixir of life even in the humble
guise of milk gone wrong, He af-
fords at least a passing joy. And tC
Offset him there will be discovery o.
q dozen new schemes to fill the NOR
tai frame with malady and the mint
with woe.
