Commissioner Vests Views.

Commissioner West commented favor
ably upon the size of the District bill and
upon the increase over the amount granted
by Congress last year. 1.-THE bill as It
passed the House, said Commissioner
West. made excellent provision for the
various departments of the District gov
eminent, and in such particulars as fur
ther provision was requested by the Com
missioners the Senate amendments are
most satisfactory. In the matter of street
improvements. the extension of 14th street
has long been regarded as a public neces-
sity and is now made certain.
The Senate added twenty items of street
improvements, which, with the exception
of seven, were adopted by the House. The
completion of the Arizona avenue sewer
was unfortunately lost in conference, but
1t is to be hoped that this very desirable
Improvement will soon be undertaken.
ut Is hardly necessary to add that l am
greatly pleased with the action Of the
House in receding from the proposition to
place the Police Court in the new munich
pal building. against which the sentiment
of the community was unanimous; while
to have placed the offices of the register
of Wills and the recorder of deeds in that
building would have created an endless
amount of annoyance and Inconvenience
I am sure that the Commissioners will
next year endeavor to again present to
Congress a bill which will be carefully pre-
pared and contain nothing that does not
appeal to Congress on the ground Of wis
dom and necessity"
Col. John Biddle. Engineer Commissioner,
said that Congress has been very attentive
to the needs of the District this year. He,
too. expressed his approval of the action
of the House in preserving the new munich
pal building a home for the District
government proper and in providing for
the Police Court and the other offices out
side of the District building.
Congress authorized in the District bill
that the title of the law clerk in the Office
of the corporation counsel be changed to
that of fourth assistant corporation
counsel" Mr.. Francis II. Stephens. the
present law clerk, it is said, will be given
the new title.

Could Have Been Better.

"If only Congress had adopted the recon-
mendation of the Commissioners for the
segregation of those large items. with spe-
cial provision for advances from the treas
ury to meet the Districts share, repayable
with interest In term of years, larger ap-
preparations could have been made for
current expenditures, and the total amount
to be taken out of current revenues could
have been kept within our income. Our
estimate for current expenditures was sub
stantially the same this year as in the
three preceding years. plus the necessary
increases. and the difference appears in the
estimates for extraordinary projects of i'm
prOyement."

MEETS WITH APPROVAL
COMMISSIONERS PLEASED WITH
ACTION OF CONGRESS.
District Appropriation Bill Gives Joy
to Local So1ons-Municipal
Building.

AS stated in The Star yesterday after
noon. the District Commissioners were very
much gratif1ed over the action of the House
in instructing its conferees to recede from
their position relative to the uses to which
the new municipal building is to be put.
The Commissioners today also spoke In
commendatory terms of the District appro-
priation bill for the next fiscal year.
Certainly the Commissioners and the
people of the District have every reason to
be gratifed with the District appropriation
bill as passed." said Commissioner Mac
farland to a reporter for The Star today.
THE committees and Congress have shown
most favorable consideration of the recon-
mendations of the Commissioners. Every
District appropriation bill for the past three
years has been better than It's predeces-
sors, and this is the best Of ALL 1t shows
the increasing interest of Congress and the
country in the national capital. when De.
gan with our centennial celeprauon II
also shows the results of the very careful
thorough and intelligent work of the mem
bers of the appropriation committees deal
ing with District affairs. who have all
been at this work long enough TO become
familiar with It,
Ever year the arguments of the Com
missoners for the District have been bet
ter appreciated, and they have accumulated
a momentum which has now great pow
er. All the large projects OF municipal
improvement are now we'll provided TOT
1t Is the appropriations for them. and es-
pecially for the filtration plant, sewage dis
posal system and the municipal building
which make the total Of the bill this year
80 large. There has not been relatively a
similar increase in the appropriation for
current expenditures. The great projects
had to be provided for largely this year.

catniras ana Rlsck snnke.

A writer in the Scientific American
says: 81 witnessed a pair of catbirds
making a bold defense against black
snake bent on devouring the contents
of their nests. At first the snake was
inclined to disregard the distressed
birds as they fought to drive it away,
but the blows of their wings and bills
became SO annoying that the thief had
to seek refuge in fight On reaching
the roots OF the tree. from which the
river had washed the dirt the snak.-
started to climb. only to be driven be-
meath them and then out to an old
stump, under which the baffied and
beaten reptile, took refuge"

The soI1ier,s rhIe rinne.

Military life is necessarily made up
largely of loafing. You cannot keep a
man continuously at drilling. marching
or any other branch of military train
ing for eight hours q day and five or
six days a week. You have TO invent a
great many other jobs for him, even to
make a pretense of keeping him occu-
pied. But these jobs are nearly all
'loafing'' jobs, ana when it is all done
the soldier has a great many more idle
hours on his hands per diem than any
other man in the same rank Of life. 1
do not know whether it is possible to
arrive at any remedy for this. but, if
it is. the direction in which I should
look for the remedy would be to make
every soldier work at some other trade
for d certain number Of hours each
day. The number OF hours might be
shorter in the summer, when there is
more opportunity for training and mill
tary exercise, and longer in the winter.
If this were practicable, no doubt 1t
would make an enormous difference to
the value of the soldier rs citizen
when he leaves the ranks.-London
