STOPS EBB AND FLOW.
Free Course of Stream Interrupted by
Railway Embankment.

The building of the high railway embank-
ment across Graveily creek. on the Vir-
ginia side OF the river. just beyond the Dis
trice line. has stopped the ebb aud flow Of
the water in that stream. which drained
large area of marsh land near the old Alex
ander's Island race track and has con-
verted II into a foul-smelling and disease
breeding swamp. Even when the stream
was open TO the river the swamp was bad
enough. but now the conditions are simply
horrible. An area OF possibly fifteen acres
is covered with stagnant. green, Shiny
water filled with decaying vegetation which
cannot be otherwise than disease-breeding
To pass by IL is To be assailed with the
rank smell of decaying vegetation IL is
said. and with the wind from the south
the disease-breeding germs are brought into
the city and will cause malaria and its kim
bred diseases unless something Is done TO

An opening through the new railway en-
bankment would soon remedy the trouble
IL is believed. by allowing the water to flow

The Lion and the Dancer.
Paris Cor. London Telegraph.


So great was the impression which a
fascinating Spanish dancer made on lion
while she was paying visit to music hall
where it was performing, that the animal
after contemplating her for some time. got
on its legs, moved off in her direction, and
putting its paws through the bars of Its
cage, took hold of her head and patted her
face affectionately. Unfortunately, Sam
son had reckoned without his claws which
tore the tender-skin of the pretty dancer,
inflicting scars, the traces of which will, in
all proba bility, never disappear This re-
suit of what would otherwise have been
regarded as a good joke, not being likely
to enhance the professional attractiveness
of the graceful Spaniard she has taken
legal action against the proprietor of the
place of entertainment, putting in a claim
for damages to the amount of f400. The
case has just been brought before one of
the Paris courts. but as the defendant is
abroad on business, the hearing has been
adjourned until November when the judges
may have better opportunity for forming
an exact opinion of the injury which the
charms of the fair plaintiff have Sustained
at the paws Of the susceptible Samson.

Mamie Simpson, fifteen years old whose
father, John D. Simpson, lives at 22l
Adams street Anacostia, was taken to the
house of detention last night on a charge
of ncorrigibility. Four days ago the girl
went away from her home and the police
were asked to look out for her. They fail
ed to locate her, but she returned home last
night. Her mother and father thought 1t
was time something was being done to re-
form her conduct, and escorted her to the
Anacostia station, where the charge stated
was preferred against her. Unless her
parents change their minds and get her out
today she will have to appear in the Police
Court tomorrow.

No Use for a "cold Smoke.

From the Philadelphia Record
Cold tobacco smoke. according to an OK
pert. is all right If 1t be fresh, but the
proposition. said to have been thought of in
Paris, to manufacture smoke, compress It
something after the manner of liquid air
and ship It where wanted or store it for
future Is voted absurd. The Partisan
idea Is not to cater to the man too indolent
to draw off his own smoke from cigar or
pipe, but to furnish the ready-made solace
in places where fire cannot be had or
matches made to burn. such as the decks
OF ships when the wind is high or In very
damp places Gold smoke" says the ex-
pert quoted, ''if allowed to stand. acquires
peculiar bitterness of taste, which no one
could possibly learn to like, and l do not
believe any method can be devised to pre-
vent this. 1t doesn't sound reasonable, In
deed that smoke can be liquefed. for it is
really composed of solids in a finely divided
state and is not gas or mixture OF gases,
as air is: though, of course. IL they be
actually liqueied as In Paris that settles
