A common charge brought against
newspaper reporters is that they are
heartless, that they revel in laying
before the world the closely guarded
secrets of individuals. 1t constantly
happens that reporter must do UNI
pleasant things because others have
been guilty of those violations of
custom, law or convention that makes
news. The opprobium that belongs to
the real offender is not inirequently
heaped upon the newsgatherer. There
is no work reporter detests so much
as that involving social scandal, and
there is no story that a large percent
age OF readers will devour more
eagerly.

According to the ruling Of the
supreme court of Iowa in an appeal from
Wayne county, the size of community in
which physician lives, as we'll as the
state of the profession at the time must
must be taken into consideration in
determining the standard of skill and
learning required. The case was that
of John w. Farrell VS.. A. ID. Ellis. Far
rell had fallen from a ladder and had
broken his arm. The arm was set by
DR.. Ellis, but it was afterwards found
necessary to reset it. Terrell brought
action for damages. He was given a
Judgment by jury and the doctor
appealed on the grounds that the Judge
instructed the jury that the standard of
skill and learning ordinarily exercised
by the members of the profession at the
time of the treatment in question, hav-
ing regard to the advanced state of the
profession at the time, and the lower
court was reserved, the supreme court
holding, in an opinion, that this was
erroneous in not limiting the degree Of
skill and learning to that ordinarily
possessed by physicians and surgeons
practicing in similar localities.

men have failed to make large sums out

cent less than is. usual at this season.

AlUnOuSn III is no longer pOSSlDle IOf
man to conduct an agricultural paper
without some knowledge of farming,
many farm journals are edited by farm
ers who reside in cities or who learned
the practical side of the business in
boyhood. By mingling with farmers at
Institutes, conventions, etc, such edi-
tors keep up the appearance of famil-
iarity with farm topics; yet their writ
ings do not "smell of the SOUL" and
cannot be as valuable as if from the pen
of an actual farmer. Recognizing this
fact. The Iowa Homestead, of Des
Moines, Ia. has long made it rule to
have it's editors reside upon and operate
their own farms, enabling them to
combine practice with receipt. It's de-
partments, too, are conducted by active
farmers and it's special articles are by
successful farmers. The Iowa Home
stead holds a high place in the esteem
of the farmers of Decatur county, and
we are glad to announce that by special
arrangement THE REPORTER is able to
offer this fine farm paper, in combination
with our own, at a very attractive
price. Let us order for you.

AUTOS ON THE STREET
CIRCULAR OF INSTRUCTIONS IS
SUED TO THE POLICE.

Major Sylvester has directed the members
Of his department to see that owners Of au-
tomobiles do not leave their machines upon
the public streets over night Such practice,
the corporation counsel has decided, is a
violation Of law, and the Commissioners
have approved his finding. In an order to
the police of the several precincts the SUI
perintendent Of police says:
Zone or two instances recently where au-
tomobiles have been left standing at the
curb all night has raised a question with
the authorities as to the right Of owners
to use the public highways for such pur-
poses. It involves the right Of a citizen to
use the streets Of the city as a garage for
an automobile.
1.-The corporation counsel is Of the opin-
ion that the District of Columbia would in
cur civil liability to persons (and property
who might be injured because Of and while
such an obstruction was allowed to remain
on public highway after notice Of it's cx-
istence to the police authorities. and cit
izen has no right to use the streets Of the
city for such purposes"
Major Sylvester also quotes the section Of
the law under which the prosecutions are
to be maintained. The section provides that
no person shall leave upon the streets or
public thoroughfares anything that will OBJ
struct travel or that is dangerous to life
and limb.
It Is stated by the police that there are
many owners Of automobiles who have no
buildings in which to keep their machines.
They have made 1t practice to allew the
autos to remain In the streets in front of
their houses over night The owners, 1t Is
said, had been assured that by leaving
lights upon their vehicles they would not
be violating the law. The police court held
to the contrary, however, and the circular
was issued for the guidance of the police.

of that Sort Mr.. Brickley explained. but
it is a matter Of moment and principle

D. A. R. BOARD MEETING
ADMINISTRATION CHIEFS TO AS
sEMBLE TOMORROW.

The coming week, It Is said will be one
Of importance in D. A. r. circles Mrs.
Donald Mclean. president general. will ar
rive In the city tomorrow, and the first
meeting Of the national board Of admins
tration since spring will convene Tuesday.
There will be a meeting Of the Continental
Hall committee Wednesday afternoon. and
1t Is stated that great deal Of business
is to be transacted Of vital importance to
the welfare Of the organization. It Is ex-
pected there will be a large attendance Of
the members Of the national board.
Mrs. Mclean is coming to Washington
with good news Of the D. A. r. through
out the country, it is said, as she has spent
a good deal Of the summer in visiting
among the chapters. She was the guest
of honor at a large reception in Saratoga,
N. T., last month, Saratoga Chapter, D.
A. R., being the hostess. The reception
was attended by good many OF her OH
cial stan ALSO and it Is said to have been
an occasion in which patriotism was para
mount.
Local chapters have felt very severely
the loss OF Mrs. Elizabeth Blair Lee. the
regent of the Mary Washington chapter,
who passed away recently after life filled
with gentle acts and good deeds. An cleo
regent Of the chapter will be held next
Tuesday week. There are two names
spoken of, that OF Miss Virginia MlIlefs
corresponding secretary general OF the ma
tional society, who took the office left va
cant by the resignation Of Miss Mary
Desha. and Mrs. Kate Kearney Henry, the
present vice regent and acting regent OF
the chapter. In case Miss Miller should
be successful in the election that Will leave
vacancy on the national board which Is
much priced, and there will doubtless be
much wire pulling to get the place. Miss
Miller, by right of her position In the ma
tional association, has a vote in the con-
tinental congress. There Is no past
votes in the congress, and no matter how
high the office ever held in the society OF
the D. A. r. 1t carries with it only the
honors of the incumbent. There Is no
"house of lords-or ladies''-holding a per-
manent VOTE
1t Is said there Is a movement on foot to
have the constitution Of the national So
ciety so changed as to permit q modified
permanent vote, at least to retiring presi-
dents general, who. under the present sys-
tenn, are merely fgureheads, unless they
accept chapter regency. This not one OF
them has cared to do, and SO 1t happens
that after having been president general,
only one. Mrs. John w. Foster, has ever
cared to enter the congress again after
leaving the chair.
1t Is said that Continental Hall matters
are to be looked into, and lively time is
expected. The matter Of the jamestown
building of the D. A. R., which is to be a
permanent feature, is also to be consid-
cred at the board meeting.
