Street Sufferers and the Police.

In yesterdays Star appeared a news
article which deserves thoughtful con-
sideration by the local authorities and the
members of Congress interested In District
legislation. Several times during this win
ter sick and helpless people have applied to
the police for temporary shelter or for
hospital treatment, being suddenly inca
pacitated by Illness or by the cold In
some cases these people were not Migrants
In the ordinary sense of the term, but
under the laws as they stand and under
the existing system of handling such cases
they have been accused of that ofrense and
sentenced to the Jail or the workhouse in
order that the city might give them aid
1t is poor system that thus forces the UNI
fortunate victim Of illness into penal in
stitution through no fault of his own.

heartlessness If it continues thus to treat

Leadership in the House.

His party friends in the House are giving
Mr. Williams some unhappy moments.
Many of them refuse to follow where his
white plume waves. This makes trouble.
He is man of high spirit. and being the
chosen leader he wants to lead. His posi-
ton is logical. but he should be patient.
Southern men are born politicians, but
they are full of ginger, and ginger in pol
itics. to obtain the best results, needs to be
regulated moment of passion may undo
the work of month.
Let us go back a few years for little
story and an illustration. The Fifty-first
House organized with Thomas B. Reed as
Speaker, and his first work was to knock
into smithereens an antiquated code of
rule1 by which one alert member could hold
UP the whole body and bring business to
a dead halt. He substituted a new code
of his own construction, and it worked like
a charm. The House at once became
business organization, and the country APP
plauded.
But the southern men in the House be-
came furious, and threw themselves
against the new rules and their author
with a passion which at times bordered on
frenzy. Mills of Texas. Breckenridge Of
Kentucky, Breckenridge of Arkansas, Nc

ardent and some of them eloquent, marched
up and down the aisles hurting epithets at
the chair which would have made the hair
of the average man curl. But the man
from Maine kept his place and his head,
smiled at the tumult, and finally con-
quered it.
There was one man from the south, how
ever, who when matters were at their noisi-
est never lost his serenity. He was as much
opposed as his democratic colleagues to the
new procedure. but instead Of showing feel
ing he employed argument. He%ould fence
with the Speaker in a pleasant voice and
with an air of Difference to the high office
Mr. Reed held. He was neither an eloquent
nor a witty man, but he had a great deal of
what goes under the homely name of gump
ton, and he attracted SO much attention
by the way he carried himself at that time
that in the next House, which the demo-
Gratis controlled, he was chosen Speaker
over men who had served twice as long as
he had in Congress. The demand was for
a man who in action could be relied upon
to control himself and thereby control 9TH
ers. And he made an excellent Speaker,
and was reelected.
Charles Frederick Crisp did his section
men of that variety? There is a fine open
ing for such here. They are not adopts in
the art of making the eagle scream, and
you would never learn from them that the
magnolia blooms in the south and that the
hooking bird sings there, but they under
stand how to transact public business.

the sufferers who ask only temporary at
tention until their strength returns. The
vagrancy charge Is at times gratifyingiy
elastic to enable the police and the courts
to dispose of suspicious characters for the
sake Of the public welfare and If there
were no better method of succor' 1t would
be well that it can be extended to embrace
this class of unfortunares. But 1t is essen
TALLY wrong to stamp a man as having
served jail or a workhouse sentence when
his only offense Is illness. 1t is to be hoped
that provision may be. made in the new
municipal hospital, when it is built. to ac-
commodate those people whom the police
find to be worthy of medical treatment
without being accused of offenses against
the laws. Meanwhile it is to be asked
why the ordinary arrangements for the
trea tment of the sick under the regularly
organized charity system are not invoked
by the policemen to whom these people
apply.

Promising.

Everything is promisin'; they tell US, by
and by,
The car is goin' to reform and be as good
as pie:
The roses is a-promisin' to bloom again
some day:
The skies Is promisin' to smile instead Of
frownin' gray;
An notwithstanding, life is full Of sorrow
an regret
The world is full of promise-but there's
nothin' dom yet.
Everything is promisin'. They say the
trusts will be
Compelled to lower prices. Maybe some
things will be free.
The world will get kind-hearted. an we'll
do the best we can
To help along good times an not to crowd
our fellow-man.
They are writin' books that tell US to cheer
up an never fret
The world is full of pronlise-though there s

Ethics of College Foot Ball.
From the New York World

By far the ablest contribution to the in
termittent controversy over modern college
foot ball is contained in President eliot :
annual report. The distinguished head Of
Harvard University Is a friend of college
athletics. There Is no prejudice in his re-
port. His criticisms are founded solely In
the, ethics of manhood and the age. The
main objection to foot ball as It is played
lies against the moral quality. 1t is an evil
that in the immoderate desire to win games
ifl-feeiing Is created between colleges Then
again, the mass play affords temptation ia
foul play, since violation OF the rules NAV
be hidden. Finally. the game has become
assimilated to war. as to its strurgies
stratagems and receptions.

Desserts.

"Tryphosa" is not only delicious
dessert, but is much more econopli-

food for the invalid; its strength and
nutrition renders it an excellent
food, where the stomach rebels
against solid foods. Demonstration

Modern Housekeepers are finding

cleaned and are made SO that there
are no seams to leak or wear out
quickly. They are but little more
expensive than good enamelware,

The Price Of Sugar.
From the Detroit Free Press.

Whatever the causes that have conspired
to elevate the price of sugar to figure
nearly prohibitive, the consumer who parts
company with 1& cents extra every time he
purchases pound of sugar, realizes the
part he plays In the present situation. The
beet sugar men have made themselves the
victims of false fears. If free sugar from
the Philippines would lower the price te the
consumer 1t would be doubly advisable
But 1t won't. The trust is in complete con-
troll and will continue to be.

Rowdyism at Colleges.

Just how far rough sports and contests,

responsible for the pretty evident growing
tendency to rowdyism and riot at Amer
lean colleges Is a question worth consider
ing by academic authorities. little root

at Yale, at all events, and such an example
would be salutary In other quarters.

At this point young Ahlers was con-
