DECISION BY CONTROLLER.
District Will Share in Reform School
Farm Propertv

Controller Tracewell has rendered de-
cision to the District Commissioners as to
how the net proceeds of the farm and shops
of the reform school of the District should
be covered into the treasury. He says
II think 1t is clear that the change made
in the appropriations for general mainte-
nance of the school and the change made In
the disposition of it's revenues were recipro-
cal. This leaves for decision the practical
question:: When does the provision Here
after the net proceeds of the farm and
shops shall be covered into the treasury to
the credit of the United States go into er-
feet?
1T being general legislation, appllca tbe to
all future appropriations made for the sup
port OF this reform school, the usual rule
or construction would require a holding
that 1t went into effect with the approval
OF the act. and should not be deferred In Its
operation until the commencement of the
present fiscal year.
ut being one of several acts making
provision for the support of this school
and determining who should receive the
benefits OF the profits OF the farm and
shops, in which the intent is clearly dis
closed to place those profits to the credit
OF the government and the District In
proportion as they contributed to tho
support of the institution. # seems to me
that holding covering those profits into
the treasury to the sole benefit of the
United States during the period above
named and while the District was con-
tributing it's one-half to the support OF
the institution, would not be IN con-
formity to the intent of Congress. there
fore hold that during the period in ques-
tion those profits should be deposite d
one-half to the credit Of the government
and one-half to the credit of the District
OF Columbia"

FAVoRs TUNNEL PROJECT.
Statement by President Thompson of
Georgetown Association.

: Referring to the statement that the
Georgetown Citizens Association, at its
meeting Monday evening, had under discus
sion the project for the covering of Rock
creek, thus linking Georgetown with Wash
ington at the P street bridge, Mr.. Smith
Thompson. jr, president of the George
town Citizens Association, stated to a Star
reporter today that the matter under dis
cussion at the meeting was not the archins
of Rock creek at the P street bridge, but
the tunneling project.
This tunneling commences at Lyons Mill,
some distance above the bridge and runs
under 25th street Its full length to the In
tersection of that street with the creek at
street, and continues to the intersection
with the canal at the creek.
This tunneling treatment of the creek,
thus linking Washington with Georgetown,
Mr.. Thompson states, Is the same that has
been agitated by the association and the
citizens on both sides of the creek for
years past, and they have not changed their
position in any particular.
Mr.. Thompson says there are a few citi-
zens Of Georgetown who have advocated
the erection of a bridge at Q street as a So
luton of the separation Of the two cities in
lieu of the tunneling project. and 1t is de-
sired that supporters of the tunneling pro-
ject be understood as adhering to the orig
inal Idea of obliterating the creek in this
manner.
Besides this. he says, the Commissioners
OF the District have given their hearty sup
port to the tunneling treatment of the
creek as above mentioned, and the commit
tees of Congress have had the matter pre-
sented to them in this form, and as large
number of the citizens of both Washington
and Georgetown are strongly advocating 1t,
they naturally protest against being charg-
ed with change of front or of vascillating.

Negroes Revolving Crime.

Great excitement prevailed among the
people of Ridgely, Md, Tuesday night,when

old daughter of Thomas, H. Lord. we'll
known farmer residing near town. had been
inveigled into a secluded place and abused
by Jerry Scotten. negro, forty years of
age. formerly an employe on the farm OF
Mr. Lord. The attention of the grand jury.
now in session at Denton. was called to
the vile and criminal conduct of the negro.
The little girl was summoned before the
jury Tuesday and Immediate action was
taken. States Attorney Goldsborough had
a bench warrant issued, and after much
trouble the negro was captured on the out
skirts of Ridgely. When Scotten saw the
officers he took to his heels and ran, but
was captured after SIX shots had been fired
At him.

BOY FATALLY INJURED
RESULT OF AN ACCIDENT ON THE
WHITE LOT.
John j. Barry, Jr., Caught in Wheels
of Runabout-Dies on Way
to Hospital.

A fatal accident occurred on the White
Lot yesterday afternoon, about 4:45 clock
in which John ]. Barry, jr., son of John ].
and Mrs. Elizabeth Barry of 1440 Howard
avenue, was the victim. His death the
result of injuries received by his leg becom-
ing entangled in the wheel of runabout be-
longing to a companion, Leo Hughes, twelve
years old, living at 2119 N street northwest
Barry was fifteen years old and was a stu
dent at ST. Johns College. He went to the
White Lot yesterday afternoon to witness
practice game of the foot ball team COM
posed of boys who attend the college, and
met death. as stated.
Hughes and several companions, also Of
the college, went Immediately after the oc-
currence to the third precinct police station
and related the circumstances attending the
accident. 1t was evident that the affair was
unavoidable, and Coroner hewitt gave a GER
tffcate of accidental death.
When Leo Hughes was about to start from
the grounds he invited two young friends,
Rudolph Brennan and Jerome Crowley, to
accompany him. They accepted the invita-
ton, and before the vehicle had left the
grounds the boys passed Barry. The latter
asked that he be given lift" but Hughes
thought he had no room for him in the We
hicle and told him so. Barry it is believed
did not understand that his request had been
denied, and climbed into the vehicle from
the rear.
Well" he said to Hughes, I'm on; make
some room for me-
When he addressed the driver he was try
ing to climb over the seat, and 1t was then
that his leg caught in the wheel. He was
pulled from the runabout and his head
struck against the iron step with consider
able force. 1t is thought his head struck
against the step twice before the vehicle
was stopped and he then fell to the ground.
Policeman Lipscomb of the seventh pre-
Cinct, who was on the lot at the time, picked
up the injured boy and started toward the
Emergency Hospital with him in the run
about, but he died in the policeman's arms
before the hospital was reached. Physicians
at the hospital pronounced life extinct ard
the body was cared for there until Coroner
hewitt had concluded his investigation.
Later the body was prepared for burial and
removed to the home of the parents of the
deceased.
Arrangements have been made for the fu-
neral to take place Friday morning at 8
o'clock at st. Paul's Church. 1t is probable
that the members of the junior class at st.
Johns College will attend the funeral in a
body.

Military Honor for Willard.

A new phase in the military situation in
Virginia Is the advocacy of the name of
Capt. Joseph E. Willard. former lieutenant
governor. and at present corporation COM
missioner. for the position Of brigadier gen.
eral when the three regiments now in the
state are formed into brigade. The gov
ernor has not as yet intimated that he will
form a brigade, and the three colonies of
the three regiments have at various times
intimated that they are not seeking the pro-
motion, which makes the choosing OF an
outsider more than q possibility.

GOLLIBlLITY
OF WOMEN.
Ask Mrs. Chadwick What She
Thinks About Their SuScepti-
bility to the Wiles of Sharpers.

Women naturally are rather sensitive
about being officially or otherwise
classed with idiots and criminals.
Equally natural they resent the impli-
cation that they are particularly gull
BILE and hence easily susceptible to
sharpefs who would play upon their
highly organized nervous tempera-
ments. In a recent attack upon the
patent medicine business 1t was Inn
piled that women are the victims OF
patent medicine advertisers, because
they are so much more gullible than
men. Wen, perhaps they are more
easily fooled, but we doubt If Mrs.
Chadwick, n she were asked her opln-
ion, would say so, As a matter OF
fact, women with their wonderful intui-
tons are apt TO be pretty good judges
OF what Is so and what Is not so.
For this reason women are not likely
to be long imposed upon by mlsrepre-
sensations concerning patent medicines
or anything else, and when a patent
medicine business has steadily grown
for thirty eight years 1t necessarily
means that It has won the confidence
Of the women as well as of the men
who have been and are it's grateful
patrons, Such business as that de-
scribed here Is conducted by Dr. Ray
V. Pierce Of Buffalo, whose name is
a synonym for honesty and honor In
the business and professional world.
Dr. Pierce he's a great establishment IN
Buffalo which Is one of the chief points
Of interest to visitors IN that city, II
consists Of a large iabora tory for the
manufacture OF the medicines which
bear his name and hospital In con-
nectlon Herewith for the treatment OF
various ailments This hospital Is
taxed to its full capacity at all times
by patients who come from all parts
OF the country FOR treatment by the
large stan of graduated specialists. In
the laboratory the famous DR.. Pierce
remedies are compounded from pure
roots, herbs and barks Of known prop
critics and for special purposes. The
charge was recently made that alcohol
was the principal ingredient Of these
medicines. The Journal which made
that baseless charge was promptly sued
for 100000 damages, An immediate
retractlon was the result --Exchange.
