Welcome to Father Pittar.

A welcome was extended Thursday to
Rev. Father J. B. Pittar. s. j.. of ST. Alloy
slus' Church, spiritual director of Gonzaga
School for Boys. He has just returned from
an extended vacation. and his home coming

verse. Among the pleasing numbers of the
simple program were an address, delivered
by Francis X. Hart. greeting from little
five-year-old Raymond Foley and a paper
on est. John the Evangelist" read by John
Madigan.
After expressing his surprise and pleasure
at the greeting Father Pittar continued his
remarks by reminding the boys that the
good results shown In their work were
achieved only by much patient practice.
some self-denial and strict attention. This
course Of action holds good not only for the
work of the class room, but every good re-
suit in any line of labor. be 1t of the head
or of the hand. is attained through practice
and attention. The duties Of a schooboy
are not to be for the present day or hour:
they are to prepare him for creditable
appearance before that critical audience
the world. Therefore should the coming
American citizens strive by every means
to make their present opportunities of last
ing advantage to themselves.
Father Pittar ended by fmpressing upon
his hearers the necessity Of practicing on
all occasions the golden rule. By so doing.
he said, they may win for themselves the
esteem and confidence of their fellow men
and the approval of God.

Gov. Herrick was down here to dedicate
the Ohio monument. some reporter came to

thing he could say on the subject.

Removing Distractions to Navigation

Several months ago an old barge was
blown ashore in a gale in the mouth Of
Monroe creek at Colonial Beach. almost
blocking the entrance to the stream. which
was a favorite anchorage of the pleasure
craft that visit the beach in large numbers
during the summer months The barge was
such a nuisance that the town council con-
tracted with parties here to remove it, and
within the past week or ten days it was
blown UP by dynamite and the entrance to
the creek opened to navigation. Two old
sand-carrying barges which sank between
the two wharves at the resort, and which
were partially removed last spring, are to
be gotten out of the way before the next
summer season at the beach.

FOLLOWS UP HIS CHARGES.
Reiteration of Statement Against
ASYLUM Hospital Management.

E. R. James, the local undertaken who
charged the officials of the Washington
Asylum Hospital with showing favortism
to a certain undertaken regarding the an
nouncement of deaths occurring at that in
stftution has followed up his charges by
furnishing what he called proof of SUBJ
stantial nature. When Mr.. James pre-
ferred the charges last week Secretary Will
son of the District board Of charities, after
consulting with Superintendent Zinkhan
of the asylum. directed Mr.. James to fur
nish something more convincing than his
own mere statement. upon the promise that
he would then institute an investigation.
In his communication today Mr.. James
stated that September II last Andrew Lin
coin died at the asylum. and that his widow
declares she was not informed Of the
death by the asylum ofiicials. and did not
receive any intelligence of her husband $
death until the favored undertaking firm
went to see her..
1T do not think such methods Of inform
ing relatives of deceased persons Is In COM
pliance with the laws governing the institu-
tion." said Mr.; James. DIR. Bayles. VINO
to me that there were some irregularities
existing there in connection with the re-
moval Of bodies and even referred to his
record in connection with the same.
Mr. James cited another case where the
first information the relatives OF person
diving at the asylum received was from
the Favored undertakers," and he declared
that such Information as he furnishes is
sufficient evidence that there are Irregular
tiles at the Washington Asylum and con-
Guided by stating that he believes Super
sfntendent Zinkhan is ignorant of the con-
ditions he referred TO-
: The charge by Mr.. James that DR..
Bayles admitted irregularities had occurred
will call for an explanation from the lat
Ter to Secretary Wilson. Although he will
summon DIR. Bayies Mr.. Wilson says the
proof furnished by Mr.. James is not, In his
mind conclusive. He cannot make himself
believe that any preference was shown one
undertaken over another in the question OF
emoving bodies and contends that>such an
LEGGED irreguiarity is unnatural. In view of
l he fact that the records OF deaths at this
Institution are open to the public, and any
jdertaker is at liberty to inspect them at
Any time.
