Sons of Jonadab at Special Service.

The evening service last Sunday at the
Maryland Avenue Baptist Church, north
east consisted of a sermon and songs In
behalf of the Independent Order of Sons
of Jonadab. Preliminary to the discourse,
the pastor, Rev. r. r. Riedel, spoke OF
the interest in the order and Its work on
the part of his church, and in token OF
this interest presented the brotherhood,
which was represented by delegations
from it's several councils, with a beauti-
full Bible The gift was received and ac-
knowledged in appropriate remarks by
the grand chief, John c. Daley. The song
service was conducted by the church
choir and was interspersed with selec-
lions by the Loyal Legion Glee Club, led
by Mrs. Rtedel.
The sermon was an exposition of the
35th chapter of jeremiah, from which the
Jonadab order takes it's platform of prin-
ciples and in which it finds its models of
total abstinence living. References were
made to the struggles and triumphs of
several eminent reformers, notably those
of John B. Cough: the necessity for per-
sonal conservation and religious living
was urged, and sympathy and co-opera-
ton with the Independent Order of Sons
of Jonadab commended.

The bursting offthe#water mains caused
considerable damage 10 the pavement IN
the vicinity Of the accidents. but by
O'Clock last night theJ repairs were COM
pleted. Superintendent Mcfarland or the
water department declares that the breaks
were due to defective water pipes la1d py
the old board OF public works thirty and
more years ago. Judging from the appear
ance Of the pieces removed from the mains,
it is believed the pipes were cast on the
sfde resulting in one side OF the pipe be-
ing considerably thicker than the other
side. The iron is also said to be OF poor
quality, and when the increased pressure
was inaugurated the water broke through
the weak places in the mains.
Mr.. Mcfarland states that he anticipates
that there will be still more breaks In the
water mains in Northeast and Southeast
Washington. He has received several re-
ports Of kitchen boilers bursting since the
high pressure service was put into opera
ton on Capitol Hill, but the damage done
has not been serious

SHORT WEIGHT IN COAL.
Dereliction Believed to Have Been Due
,--. to Carelessness.

A charge of delivering short weight coal
was preferred in the Police Court today by
the sealer of weights and measures against
James E. Chapman, whose place Of BUSH
ness is at 224 14th street northwest. 1t is
alleged that a ton Of coal sold from the
defendants place Of business was thirty
five pounds short. Mr.. Chapman forfeited
$40 collateral. " sa'
Col. Haskell. the sealer Of weights and
measures said to a Star reporter that there
had been no fragrant violation of law COM
mitted in Mr. Chapman's case. Ordinarily,
he said. prosecutions are not taken In cases
where the shortage is less than forty
pounds In Mr.. Chapmans case, he stated
there may have been slight difference be-
tween the scales in the defendants place
and those upon which the coal was weighed
a second time He said he thought the case
was one of carelessness rather than any,
thing else.
Col. Haskell also said he intended to keep
an assistant on the work Of inspecting coal.
and in cases where there is a shortage
found he will have the dealers reminded OF
1t by going to court. The conditions now,
he said, are much better than they were
year ago.

May Draw on Emergency Fund.

District Auditor Garrison, in response
to communication from the Commits
sioners, states that he believes the emer-
gency fund may be drawn upon for an
amount sufficient to erect fence across
the foot of 32d street northwest, in the
event the Commissioners consider the con-
dition existing at that point is such as
threatens public injury and thus creating
an emergency. The wharf committee re-
Gently called the attention of the Com
missioners to the danger of runaway
teams getting into the river at the foot
of 32d street, which is now open.
1t is believed that the Commissioners
consider the place dangerous in it's I'M
protected condition and will direct the
construction of the fence.

SEPARATION PROPOSED.
Movement to Have Juvenile Offenders
Tried at House Of Detention.

District officials who are interested in the
manner of dealing with juveniles hope TO
make some arrangement in the near future
whereby the children who are arrested will
not have to be tried in the Police Court
building. It has been suggested that cases
against such offenders might be heard at
the house Of detention, instead OF in the
court building.
For the purpose OF accomplishing some-
thing Of this kind Commissioner Macfar-
land had conference with Mr.. Zed H.
Copp. the probation officer. yesterday after
noon. As the juvenile court Is now con-
Quoted. 1t is pointed out. the children have
to go to the Police Court, and while they
are not actually placed in the cells with
the older offenders they do meet and see
many Of Them and the effect Is not deemed
conducive to the good that Is intended to
be derived, although 1t Is regarded as an
Improvement upon former methods.
No definite agreement has been reached
In the matter, but, 1t Is thought. something
will be accomplished in the near future.
