THEATER CARS EVERY MINUTE

Square Is Suggested.
Plan Proposed tn Relieve COnEested
Traffic When Thcaters Let Out
Their Crowds.

The agitation for better street railroad
facilities seems 70 be steadily getting
under Roadway. Members Of the two Dis
trict committees who remained IN Wash
ington over Christmas are receiving let
tiers and calls from citizens, who say that
there really is some interest in the sub
ject. and if they can have a chance they
will De glad TO tell the committees what
the city desires in the way Of improve
ments.
There is one chance for Improvement "
said prominent citizen yesterday, dis
GUESSING the matter. that ought TO be
plain TO everybody. That is the need OF
more cars during the hours when laboring
men and department clerks go TO work
and when they return home at night, and
also during the hours when people 90 10
the theateTs and return home from them.
The pressure in these cases is greater on
the homeward trip than when people are
going down town. People straggle in go
ing down town but when the time comes
20 so home everybody wants to ride on
one car. If possible.
Il would propose as a remedy. in part.
for this that the Capital Traction Com

Twelfth streets. in the triangle in front
Of the post-office. where at the hours
when the thcateTs dismiss their audi
cnces extra cars may be banked and let
out one after another just as rapidly as
needed. The reserve cars could be run in
on the siding an hour before the dismiss
ing time and being on the siding would
not interfere with general traffic on the
regular schedule. One Of the best car dis
patchers in the company's employ should
be in charge. This arrangement would be
an economical one for the company, and
IL would relieve a good deal Of cOnges-
ton. The point selected for the siding
would catch the crowds from the Column
bia, National Chase's, and Belasco's. and
with a schedule of cars every minute for
a quarter of an hour would handle the
traffic without requiring scores Of pas
/ sengers TO hang upon straps.
There might be some objection to put
/ ting sidings in front Of the post-office
/ but if the place is good enough for a cat
stand, as now, it is none too good for a
siding that would relieve the street rail
way problem somewhat"

DR.. THOMPSON HOME AGAIN
Surgeon Operated Upon in London
Fully Recovered.
Movement on Foot Among Friends
10 Celebrate Return in Ap-
PrOpriate Manner.

DR.. J. Ford Thompson. alive and well
arrived ia this city last night from Eu-
rope, where he has spent the past month
recovering from the effects OF an opera
ton performed on November j. DIT.
Thompson was accompanied on his trip
across the Atlantic by his two daughters.
Mrs. Joseph +. McArdle of Washington,
and Mrs Wadden. of West Chester, Pa.
The Amerika. on which Or Thompson
sailed, was somewhat delayed In reaching
New York. and the train was also "a little
late, so that although the physician was
expected early In the afternoon by a
number Of friends. they were compelled
10 wait for long time al the depot
on arriving. DR.. Thompson expressed
himself as overjoycd to be once more at
home in the midst Of his friends and
family although he had no complaint
10 make Of his treatment on the other
side
The operation from which Or. Thomp-
son had such a remarkable recovery was
performed by Dr. Mayo Robson in Lon
don For a time slight hope was held out
for his recovery. but his vigorous con
stitutiou stood him in good stead. and
after slow convalescence he has almost
completely reg3iued his health.
DR.. Thompson is one of the most emil
nent surgeons in this country, and many
notable operations have given him an in
ternatiOual reputation. He has been prac-
tiCing in Washington for more than for
ty-five years. and although man OF
nearly seventy years, his hand has lost
none Of its skill.
A movement is on foot among tn,

WATCH FIGHT OVER BLENDS. "
DistiiIers Much Interested In Case
Now Being Considered.

The so-called whisky trust and the
manufacturers of the blended products
ere engaged in "a fight before the Depart
ment Of Agriculture. the outcome OF
which is awaited with great interest The
point at issue is whether or not under
the provisions Of the puTe-food act, q
blend containing anything but straight
WHISTLES shall be labeled Imitation
Whisky" Representatives Of the wins
ky trust. said TO be composed exclusively
of dealers in the straight goods, contend
that such ruling is imperative under
the law. The blends" insist that the
enforcement Of such an order would put
them out of business.
All the rulings issued so far, IN ac-
cordance with the terms of the pure-food
act have proceeded along the line that
packages containing food products shall
be labeled for what they are, and not
for what they are not In other words
il has been held by the Secretary OF
Agriculture, who has acted on the ad-
vice of Chief Chemist Harvey W Wiley
/ that the label on a package containing
/ FOOD product should state the con
