Mrs. Julia ward Howe's Joke.


Despite her advanced years (she

enth anniversary Of her birth in her
charming home in Boston, surround

Julia Ward Howe retains her aptitude
for the making Of clever phrases. A
few days ago. on her return from Bal

ating from slight illness, Mrs.
Howe was driven through one of the
side streets of Boston with friends,
and passed the charitable eye and ear
infirmary. That institution does
much good, and no one knows il bet
ter than Mrs. Howe But as she
looked at the building and slowly
read the name, she said without the
shadow of a smile; Il don't see the
good Of that place" why, what do
you mean?" asked a friend. in aston

i did not know there was a char
table eye or ear in Boston; so what
is the use OF an infirmary for them?"

Bailey'S Great Speech.

Joseph Weldon Bailey, the Junior
ienator from Texas and the minority
Ger In the absence of Senator Cor
an. occupied the attention of the
mate for four full hours yesterday.
Ii.s subject was a technical one. The
proposition for which lie contended so
ably was this: That Congress has the
right 10 deny to the inferior or circuit
courts the right to issue a preliminary
injunction He argued that the rates
hNed by the Interstate Commerce Com
mission should remain in effect until
the courts had finally passed on them.
Perhaps two-thirds of this four-hour
speech was devoted TO the reading of
decisions OF the courts, and commenting
upon and elucidating the same. Yet.
not only was the Senate's attention held
throughout the argument. hut the visitors
In the galleries gave careful attention
70 all that the Texas Senator had TO saw.
Although there were many people wait
ing for an opportunity TO enter the
crowded galleries. few OF the more
fortunate left their seats. And when
the great speech was concluded. there
was an outburst OF applause such as
had not been heard in the Senate for
many a long day. So pronounced was
this mark Of popular approval. that the
Vice President made no effort to check
It.
The greatest compliment that could
possibly have been paid Senator Bailey
was accorded him by Senator Hale, one
of the acknowledged leaders OF the
Senate. Toward the close of the mas
terful argument the Maine Senator
arose and announced his conversion TO
the proposition for which Senator
Bailey was contending. BY so doing.
Senator Hale placed himself in opposi-
tion to Senator's Spooner and Knox, who.
I'm previous arguments, had co-nbated
the Bailey proposal Senator Hale even
went so far as 70 say that Senator
Bailey had made the most valuable and
effective contribution to the debate on
thu rate bill.
The effect of Senator Bailey's speech
cannot be foretold with cxactness. This
much is certain. however. the minority
leader has placed his party in the best
possible position in the Senate. The
Democrats seem 10 be masters Of the
situation

NO MURDER AT EVANSVILLE.

10 the f1dItor OF. The Washington Times,
I was very much interested I'm an
editorial appearing in your paper OF
Monday April 9. under the caption.
The Stain on Hyattsville" With
what you say have no fault TO find.
except the reference to HyattsyiIle. For
instance. you say, the present States
attorney may oe assumed to be ready
10 DO his part quite as well with refer
ence TO this murder in Hyattsville.
II is unnecessary to remark that you
were doubtless misinformed as TO the
Facts In this case Cr you would have
made no such rem ark tending TO.
SANDER a perfectly reputable town in
the immediate vicinity of Washington.
The death of the unfortunate, woman
which figured in the case took place
at least three miles from HyattsviIle.
and there was no more reason for say
ing that stain was cast on Hyatts-
vile than that stain had been cast
on Washington. 1t is unfortunate for
the good name of this little suburb
that some too enterprising residents
thereof insisted the inquest should be
held in that town. None of the parties
connected with the case were residents
of Hyattsville, nor is it any disgrace
whatever to the town that the grand
jury at Upper Marlboro did not take
action.
The scene of the crime. if there was
one, is as far from HyattsvilIe as
Chevy Chase is from Washington
proper, and II is grossly unfair for The
Washington Times, or any other news
paper, 10 intimate that the citizens of
Hyattsville have failed in their duty
in the matter, with which they had 10
more connection than the citizens of
Rockville, Laurel, or any other ada
cent point. The party accused of the
crime was bound over 70 the grand
jury as the result of the coroner's in
quest. with which, unfortunately
Hyattsville had some concern With
the action of the grand jury. however.
the town of Hyattsville had nothing
TO do, nor had it's residents any other
interest in the case than that of citl-
zens of the county in which the alleged
crime occurred.
As a resident of Hyattsville, / re-
spectfully protest that The Times has
done an injustice to the community
and has certainly helped neither the
suburb nor itself when it published this
editorial Misrepresentation of the facts
in the case. Yours very truly,

A Practical Association.

\ fine example for other similar bod
les TO follow was set yesterday by the
West Washington Citizens Association.
In order to impress upon the District
Commissioners the certain specific
needs of the country represented in
the association. a committee called at
the District building with carriages.
took the Commissioners aboard, and
drove them from need to need. Finally,
when the tour was ended and dinner
had been served, the governors of the
District were taken to an open meet
ing of the association and invited to
express opinions on the advisability of
early action looking to the improve
ment Of Georgetown.
OF course, the undertaking was a sue
cess. No committee would have driv-
en- the District Commissioners around
the country without having decided in
advance exactly what the needs were
and where they were clearly indicated
That wss half the battle. 1t was. also
and incidentally. the special field of
usefulness open to the association
Neither the Commissioners nor Con-
gress can be helped by agitation alone.
What botS bodies want is information.
In this case there was enterprise
enough and Judgment enough TO pro
vide the information, and great good
to West Washington will doubtless be
the result
Another feature Of the drive invites
comment. Two Of the needs pressed
were the opening Of w street from the
Conduit road TO Ridge road, and the
establishment Of a chemical fire sta
uon in the country northwest of
Georgetown. Ordinarily such requests
would have been accompanied-if by
any such information at aII-with
statements that the ground required
could be had for such and such low
price In these instances, the commit
tee had obtained authorization to say
that the site for the fire engine station
would be dedicated. to the District if
the equipment were provided, and that
most of The land needed to open w
street had already been obtained by
dedication and the rest would be OBJ
tained if the construction were ordered.
