Our Blthing Beach.

With its other peerless institu-
tions, Washington has a bathing
beach. 1t is within the shadow Of
the Washington Monument, hardly
stones throw from the house Of
the President, and so near one of
the Capitals most fashionable drives
that the crunch of carriage wheels
and the honk-honk of automobiles
can be heard at times between the
shouts of the bathers.
There is no fast-rushing water
at this beach. On the contrary, it
stands obligingly of the floats as
much as a week at a time without
moving a foot. There are no i'm
pressive lighthouses to keep away
the poor. The lighthouses are so
poor in themselves that the most
neglected wharfrat would feel en-
tirely at home in them.
So It is that thousands Of our
young men go down 10 the beach
every summer, The number of their
visits has exceeded 200 in a single
season, and it is believed that if
there were more generous accom-
moda1ions the number would easily
go beyond 100000.
An appropriation of $1,000 is
asked of Congress on behalf Of this
institution. There is no thought of
making the water move too fast;
still it is felt that if il moves 1O0
yards a day the bathers would be
safe and some of the fiotSam might
drift out of the way once in
while. Neither is it desired to make
the lighthouses impressive. Instead
of that, the authorities hope merely
to enclose dressing space for the
youths and men who ask the privi-
lege of stirring up the water and
to provide for the circulation of air
under the roof. Incidentally, il is
a sort of a dream that they may
dispell some of the gloom which
now hovers over the beach lin spite
of its proximity 10 the Monument
and the speedway so thick it can
be cut with a knife.
How much do the Commissioners
ask for this purpose? Only $4,000.
They could spend $4,000 and not
make the institution any too fine.
But they ask only S5,OOO-and the
whole tribe OF the washed at the
National Capital hopes they may
get at least "a much as they ask.

HISTORY OF A WORD.

Bribery" is a word with a curious
history. In the old Geneva Bible II is
said Of the scribes and Pharisees that
trey make clean the outer side of the
cup and of the platter. but within they
are full of bribery" The authorized
doubt that but by bribery" the Geneva
Bible meant robbery. Bribery prob
ably meant originally a morsel. a brok-
en-off piece, but IL occurs first IN old
French, signifying piece OF bread given
10 a beggar. Hence the Italian "briba, ="
vagrancy. and the old French ''bribeur," ("
beRgar or greedy devouTer "Bribe''
developed In two directions-in the sense
of robbery and of a present. When Fall
STAFF speaks of "a bribed buck" he
means not one that had been corrupt
ed, but one that had been stolen.-In-

Auto Responsibility.

Owners of automobiles NAV we'll
study the decision of the Supreme
Court of Massachusetts, a day or
two ago in the Sherman case. which
has been celebrated from its be-
ginning.
Sherman was fined in a municipal
court last year for overspeeding in
the town of Leicester. He owned,
but was not operating the machine
at the time of the hold-up, and he
appealed on the ground that his
chauffelr was responsible. To this
the highest court now replies:
II the defendant is guilty here be
is guilty. not as an owner. but because
the evidence warranted the jury in
finding as a fact that he participated
In the machines being run at an Illegal
speed. The offense with which he stands
charged is misdemeanor, and not a
felony. not being punishable by i'm
prlsonment In the State prison.
If IL be material here. It is settled
that in misdemeanOrs there are no de-
Erees. but that all who participate in
the commission of the ofrense may be
charged as such.
In our opinion the facts warranted
the Inference that the owner knew and
allowed his machine TO be Illegally run.
1t is well to get the laws and
principles governing the running of
automobiles into more or less con-
crete form, and Mr.. Sherman has
done a service to all lovers of the
exhilarating sport by his tenacity
in finding out just what his respon-
Eibiities were in the case. That,
of course, was his motive, for the
SIS fine would have cut no figure
&had he believed himself 10 be in the
wrong. Other decisions will be
made from time to time, and the
day is no. far distant when a com

The tuberculosis Congress.

That was a striking statement
which DR.. Lawrence +. Flick made
in his address to the tuberculosis
congress last evening, when he
said:
Could the disastrous influence OF
tuberculosis upon any community be
presented TO the public in a concrete
form in the manner In which, for in
stance. the San Francisco earthquake
was presented. could all the consump-
tives be marshaied into line and their
suffering thus be presented TO the world
at a glance. the response for the ameli-
grafton OF that suffering would be as
generous as that which the world has
just witnessed for California.
DR.. Flick is in agreement with the
advanced students of the problem
of consumption, who are certain
the plague can be eradicated. Or
ganization, work, means, investiga-
ton, and the cooperation of suf-
ferers and their families are the
things needed. He would interest
the National Government in the
great international conference on
the subject, 70 be held here in 1908,
and the suggestion ought to receive
attention at the hands of the Fed
eral authorities.
The States are more and more ex-
tenSively interesting themselves in
this problem. They are building in
stitutions in which to care for cor
sumptives by the best methods tha1
science has developed Year by
year distinct progress is made in
the battle against the disease.
Every civilized country is now en-
listed for the war. Everywhere sci
ence is giving its best to this in
vestigation. Success is certain to
follow such a struggle.
The United States Government
has done little to aid this move
ment-less than most European
governments, less than a number
of the States. It would be a most
creditable and --orthy act TO give
countenance TO the international
gathering which is 20 come to this
city, bringing the best results of
this worldwide effort to date.
There is no finer work of pure
humanitarianism than that repre-
sented by the men and women who
will gather for this convention. 1t
is as much entitled TO official recog-
milton. Endorsement, and encourage
ment as an international peace con-
gress, for it represents an equally
worthy cause and one which has
more prospect of early achieve
ment. The coming congress in
Washington ought to be made the
kind ever held.
