ed or eloquent composition in the
whole range of recent American lit
erature.
These letters show how the poor
girl was put to intense suffering by
the desertion of the man whom she
had too implicitly trusted and OF the
mistake she made in yielding to his
desires in that trust. They convey
a deep, lasting and impressive moral
lesson which is transmitted to every
one who reads them. The letters as
published in the newspapers may be
read with propriety. for they contain
nothing but the story of girls
wrong and the wrong done her in
soul stirring. simple language.

Coming Congress.

Congress is fast approaching. 1t
is the short session. It is hardly
probable that very much legislation
will be achieved. but that the toun-
dation will De laid for a good Quan-
THY of wholesome legislation. which
will be enacted by the succeeding ses-
sion. This is true of the two prev
ious sessions. President Roosevelt
and the House paved the way in the
session before the last for the last
TO enact the railroad rate bill and
nearly all the other great achieve
ments Of the last session.
rTcnry CIe~rs discussing the prob
able work of the coming session
says:
Congress opens very shortly and
President Roosevelt's message Will
be awaited with exceptional interest
although its general tenor is al
ready anticipated. The Administra-
ton is expected to continue its aE-
gressive policy towards the large
corporations which have been DIS
obeying the law, and a long drawn
ont legal battle will be the outcome
The next session OF Congress prom
fses to be one of active discussion but
little real action. Cuba. currency
reform, subsidies, reciprocity. tariff
and trusts may all be subjects of agi-
tation, especially the latter. and the
stronger the discussion the less like
lihood of early agreement"
Thus it is that haste is no longer
a feature of the national Legislative
body. Caution, care and delibera-
ton. with a view to ascertaining the
exast nature and effect of proposed
Legislation. as well as the wants and
demands of the people. are beeom
ing Characteristic of Congress. Be
sides questions of moment are be-
coming larger and graver and the ac-
ton to be taken on them must he
taken In a manner that 1nsures
against possible mistake. For this
and other reasons there is no making
haste these days in the matter OF en-
acting legislation. and Congress Is

FOUND IN HOSPITAL.
Relatives of Robert Moore Passed an
Uneasy Night.

Relatives of Robert Moore, fifty-thres
years Of age. whose homo is at 628 Morton
street northeast, were alarmed by reason
of his failure to return home last night.
The police were appealed to at a late hour
to interest themselves in the search that
had been instituted for him, and although
the name Of the missing man had been
recorded at the first precinct station and
at police headquarters earlier in the even
Ing, friends did not ascertain his where
aibouts until informed by Star reporter
this morning that he was under treatment
at George Washington University Hospital.
It had been reported to the police last
night at o'clock that Mr.. Moore had
fallen and received an injury while at
tempting to board a street car at New York
At the hospital it was stated that Mr..
Moore had received an injury to his body.
but that his condition was not serious.
2 Mr. Moore left home last evening with
ing. AS he failed to return at the usual
hour, his wife was uneasy. After waiting
until about midnight she called upon
neighbor and had him make inquiries.
Thinking 1t possible that the church meet
ing had lasted later than usual. the neigh
Dor went to the church and found the
doors locked. Later he called upon the po-
lice, but the latter gave him no tnforma-
ton about Mr.. Moore having met with an
accident.
The friend this morning called at police
headquarters and learned of the where
abouts of Mr.. Moore. He telephoned to
the wife of the injured man that he was all
right The sick man was visited by his
friends later in the day. They were as
sured that there was nothing serious about
his condition. and the physicians expressed
the belief that he would be able to leave
the hospital in two or three days.

TYPHOID FEVER INCREASES.
Unusual Number Of Cases for Month
Of October,

It is feared by the officials OF the health
department that the typhoid fever record
this week will be much higher than last
week. According to the records thirty
four new cases of this disease have been re-
ported since 4 o'clock Friday afternoon and
up to 10 o'clock this morning, which num-
ber~i is looked upon as exceptionally high by
the officials. 1t Is expected that unless
there Is sudden slump in the spread OF
typhoid between now and Sunday night the
weekly record Of typhoid will reach total
of seventy new cases.
den increase in typhoid, according to Health
Officer Woodward. is the fact that this Is
not what the physicians term typhoid sea-
SON. He pointed out that If there Is any
typhoid noticeable during the summer
months it generally subsidies toward the
latter part Of September. and nothing Of
any consequence Is heard of 1t again until
the early spring This year the disease pre-
vailed to an alarming extent for Ave months.
to- notice that the disease began to wane,
and they were much surprised. as well as
perturbed when 1t took sudden jump
about ten days ago, and has been steadily
increasing every since.
Dr. Woodward stated that he and his as
sistants are resorting to every method In
their power to check the spread. Each new
case as It Is reported at the Office Is thor
oughly Investigated by the inspectors, with
view Of learning its histor yand deter
mining upon the source Of the infection
According to the cases so far reported the
spread is not confined to any one neighbor-
hood or to any class or age OF persons,
which makes the work of the health officials
more difficult.

Question of Title Involved.

Galen E. Green was charged in the Police
Court this morning with a violation of sec
ton SAT of the District code. The charge
is embodied in two counts, one alleging that
Mr.. Green entered upon the land of Cotter
T. Bride and cut down twelve trees, valued
at 50 EACH and the second alleging that Mr..
Green entered on the land of Calvin Tibbs
and tore up twenty tomato plants each
valued at 80 cents. Attorney Ridout made
a motion to Quash the charge claiming the
case was trial Of title and therefore not
properly brought in the court before which
1t was being heard. but Judge Mullowny
overruled the motion. Green then pleaded
not guilty and asked for jury trial
Last January. it Is stated, the land In
question was awarded by decree of the
Equity Court to Mr.. Tibbs. and he later
sold the property to Mr.. c. T. Bride Claim,
ing rights under tax deed given several
years ago, it is stated Mr.. Green entered

London Art on Paris Stage.

From the London Times
The effort to transplant such distinctly
national product as Drury lane spectacu-
lar piece to the boards of foreign theater
is 80 bold an experiment that one naturally
wishes It every success. The experience of
Mr.. Arthur Collins, however. whose Gin
derella' has just been produced at the
Theatre de la Porte Saint Martin. clearly
shows the difficulties attending such
transfer. even when 1t is from one great ro-
mantle and spectacular stage to another.
The milieu is different. not only before but
behind the scenes. The broad manner and
crowded incident OF the big national thea
ter in London require to be carried off by
the consuming activity Of the stage carpen-
ters no less than by the go and energy of
the actors. The lightning changes" Of
the scenery play an essential part in the eff
feet Of an evening at Drury Lane, where
there is no time for philosophic contempla-
ton and even criticism is rushed off its
feet.
It would seem that there Is some diflculty
in obtaining the same rapidity on the Paris
stage. as changes intended to be instanta-
neous took SO much time that the piece was
prolonged far beyond the patience of a
rehearsal audience.

A Boston Pastel.

If you were to follow fremont street

once delightfully."- reminiscent Of old Boston
days, and today swamped beneath the wild
fantasia of signs that reach from basement
to chimney pot. shrieking to heaven in
flaming orange paint each merchants listed
wares, you might, after working your way
out Of numerous alleys and somber streets
rich in historical legend, stumble upon the
spot where Boston drops her prim fOrmality
and impenetrable reserve: for Tea Wharf,
the retrospective, stretches far out into the
opaIescent haze of the river, losing itself in
a confusion of spars and shrouds.
Along the broad quay moves confused
mass Of seamen and idlers; market hands
rattle past pushing trucks; the whining cry
Of the Italian fisherman calling his wares
mingles with the hoarse shouts of seamen
and the rafting of pulleys in their blocks
as baskets, crammed to overlooking with
cod and paddock, rise from the hold and
swing out on the dock where marketmen.
pitchfork in hand send them flying in a
continuous cascade that empties itself into
the ponderous carts that lie In waiting,
strung out along the wharf in long process
sion. Tugs ply back and forth; great hun
dred and fifty tonners quietly slip their
mornings in twos and threes and move out
gracefully into the stream, to be imme-
diately replaced by winners of fleet whose
stragglers are still beyond Boston Light,
racing under desperate head OF sail for
the market and the advanced price paid for

can rig of SAIL hoists its tattered canvas.
and with sails swelling and motors whir-
ring is soon lost in a distant tremolo.
At every turn one meets with new re-
minders of the seas colossal harvest; tubs
of fish. dories heaped with fish, wagon
loads of fish, tons of fish: in actual figures
one hundred million pounds of ocean-caught
fresh fish are delivered in Boston alone
from the fishing schooners, to which may be
added forty millions more landed at other
points along the New England coast and
States and Canada.
All that is picturesque and uncomfortable
to the chaste symmetry of captious Boston
seems to have found along these wharves
an outlet. The place reeks with persuasive
motives, and yet one may search in vain
from Commercial to Long Wharf for one
American artist busy with his work in this
Elysium.
