LAsoRERs ARE IN DEMAND.
Work on Public improvements Con.
siderabIy Delayed.

Owing to the scarcity of labor the
officials Of the engineer department of
the district say the vast amount of i'm
provement work on streets and roads
scheduled for this winter will be con-
siderably delayed. There are at pres
ent about 600 men employed on the
district improvement work, but Engin.
eer of Highways Hunt, under whose
supervision this class OF work comes,
wants about 200 more, and he has re.
sorted to advertising for the workmen,
but even after this he Is not sanguine
of any successful results, as the ordi-
nary laborers can get better pay and
hours and lighter work from the vari-
Gus contractors, and by working for
the latter, he says, the men will get
paid every week, whereas in the dis
trict the are paid only once every two
weeks, which method is not acceptable
to the average laborer, especially the
cOlOred men.
Mr.. Hunt stated that this is the
second time in Is years that the dis
trict government has been forced to
advertise for labor. AS a general rule,
he says, there are more men looking
for Improvement work than the dis
trict can employ. Mr.. Hunt is pay
ing this class of workmen two dollars
day, and If necessary to avert q la
bor famine 1t is possible he will raise
the wage as an attraction.

SHOW GRATITUDE OF NATION.
Two Fine Monuments to Men Who
Helped Cause Of Liberty.

The love of the people of the United
States for Marquis Lafayette, the
Frenchman, who in time of our great
est need gave his purse and person to
the service of this country, has con-
tinued throughout all the years that
have passed since those dark days.
When, 80 years after he had rendered
such valuable and distinguished help
to this country, Lafayette decided to
revisit it Tin 1924, congress resolved
that Whenever the president shall be
informed Of the time when the mar
quis may be ready to embark, nation
al ship with suitable accommodations,
be employed to bring him to the Unit
ed States" But LaFayette's modesty
forbade this and he took passage in q
private vessel. When it became
known that he was to revisit Amer
lea, every citizen prepared to give him
hearty welcome, and before his ar.
rival people were wearing Lafayette
ribbons, Lafayette waistcoats, LaFay-
.ette feathers, hats, caps, gloves, ETC.,
and even the ginger cakes were
stamped with his name. He was CIV
en- a continuous ovation in the "a
states and later congress erected q
magnificent statue to him, in honor Of
the man and of "the services he rem
dered to America, to the world, and to
liberty"
The statue stands in Lafayette
square, the most beautiful Of all the
many charming parks in which the
city Of Washington abounds.
Another statue in Lafayette park
Is that of Count Rochambeau, who
commanded 5000 French soldiers sent
to aid the Americans In 1889. The
statue was presented to the United
States by France.

WEATHER PROPHETS At WORK.
Predictions Reach Washington From
All Over the Country.

The ofhcials Of Uncle Sans weather
bureau receive many copies Of dire
full predictions made by long-range
weather forecasters, as they are
termed. The long-rangers have re-
Gently been bobbing up in all sections
of the country. There are four Of
them known to be in Pennsylvania,
two in Ohio, several in New York,
New England, and quite number in
the Dominion OF Canada 1t is the
opinion Of some of the weather Of
ficials that most of the long-range pre-
dictions are based upon the old-time
signs, omens and superstitions that
folks used before the introduction OF
the science Of meteorology to foretell
the coming Of storms, rain, sunshine
and snow.
The flying of crows, wild ducks and
other birds toward the south told Of
the coming Of storm; pigs carrying
straws to their stys meant the ap-
proach Of a cold wave. There are
other long-time-ahead weather proph-
cts who predicate their forecasts Of
disaster on the recent earthquakes.
hurricanes and the like, and take It
for granted that other similar dis
asters will follow in the continuation
of the freak weather In evidence
throughout the year 1906.
One of the latest and most terrify-
ing of the long-range forecasts that
were made the other day pretends to
foretell that the winter will be the
most severe on record. "At best, {"
said Prof. Edward B. Garriott, of Prof.
Willis l.. Moore's official staff of fore
casters, "the so-called long-rangs
forecasts are the merest guesswork.
II the men who make them could real
ly foretell weather conditions correct
ly as far ahead as they profess they
can, their names, flames and fortunes
would be assured in . mighty short
space OF time.

CURIOUS PEASANT SUPERSTITION


That Watt Thanks of the Dead.
1t was formerly almost universally
believed that on All Saints day the
dead were permitted to leave their
tOmbs and to roam abroad, says the
London Tribune. In some parts OF
Britanny, and in other places, the
peasants even now are careful to lock
UP their horses in the stables lest tho
dead, rising from their graves in the
early morning. should seize them and
ride furiously to some distant spot
they may have frequented in life.
In the Northern departments people
refrain from slamming doors sharply
on this day lest they should hurt an
invisible spirit entering, and the chill.
dren are forbidden to throw stones
into the hedges or trees for fear that
the missiles should wound the soul Of
some departed relation or friend hov-
ering about in them.
In Alsace little lamps, lanterns and
glimmering tapers arranged in tho
form of cross are seen burning all
night long close to the ground in many
cemetery. They are destined to re-
joice the souls as they rise from their
graves.
Perhaps the most common Of all
superstitions concerning the dead 10
that about noon on All Saints day
there comes a gentle gust of wind.
The peasants in the fields raise their
heads in the hope and expectation OF
feeling it, for 1t is the dead waiting
their thanks to the living for their
prayers and remembrance of them.
