Methodist Church Services.

The morning service st the Methodist church Sunday was a most excellent one. The ser mon by the pastor commanded the closest attention of his hear CTS and the music by the splen- did choir was sweetly rendered.
 The holy communion was ad- ministered to a large number of communicants at the close of the service.
 Mrs. Harry L. Williams sang Abide With Me" as a solo which was most excellently ren- dared. Mrs. Williams, who possesses a sweet and highly cultivated contralto voice, is a great favorite among Newport music circles and her work in this choir is much appreciated.

Open Hospital Windows

Another death at one of the local hos

windows of the wards, brings to the atten-
tton OF the authorities once more the ur-
gent necessity of adopting precautions
against this useless waste of life II Is a
striking fact that the hospital In question
has been the scene OF several such TRACE
dies. and the suggestion has been preached
that the discipline there Is lax or the meth

thing to have frequent accountings from
the popular branch of Congress, which has
so powerful a voice In questions of taxa

any reason fall short of duty, new men
better disposed and more firmly instructed

too many elections is not well taken so Tar
as national contests concerned. 1t is
best to keep the pool well stirred. The
trouble Is not with the number. but with
the character of our elections Voters
should keep their minds on public affairs

The Union Station Electric Trackage.


In consequence of a peculiar combination
OF circumstances there is a distinct prospect
that when the new union station is finished
In this city the travelling public will be
compelled to walk for some distance In
order to reach the street cars from the
trains and vice versa. II this occurs 1t
will be the result OF objectionable tan
Cling OF the legislative machinery. A bill
for the realgnment of the underground
electric tracks to adjust TO the new ter
minal arrangements was prepared in ample
time. but was held up In the Senate sub
committee for some mysterious reason for
many weeks. When 1t emerged 1t bore a
tax amendment of an extraordinary charae-
ter. Without a hearing that bill. thus
amended. was rushed into the Senate. The
original trackage bill was then reintroduced
and the tax amendment was promptly Of
fered to It, but on Tuesday 1t was rejected
by decisive majority. leaving the trackage
bill intact and pending Now it appears
that there is little chance of securing the
passage of the trackage bill at this session.
Yesterday In the Senate the proposition
was made in the form OF an amendment
to the sundry civil bill that the traction
companies lay temporary overhead tracks
to the station along routes prescribed by
the Commissioners Against such a propo-
sition the public will emphatically protest.
There is no reason why Congress cannot
and should not at this session pass a bill
giving the traction companies the right
and commanding them to lay permanent
underground conduit tracks Washington
has thus far kept free of overhead trolleys
and wants none OF them. 1t fears that

that If there is any legislation at all on the
subject at this session 1t will prescribe the

AS for the tax proposition which has
caused all this muddle, 1t is thing entirely
apart from the terminal trackage question.
II there IS belief that the public service

tion. and with an opportunity for both

In many families the education of the
children is committed almost exclusively to
the schools, and this sufficiently accounts
for the atrocious errors OF speech often
noted in circles where we might expect
better things. It matters not how faithful
the teacher may be. the child will inevita-
bly, initiate the language heard at home and
forget the instruction of the school. When
the child hears incorrect language In the

books he is probably going to speak I'M

The Presidents Travelling Expenses.

1t seems likely that Congress will at this
session enact a law, possibly a separate
measure and possibly In the form Of an
amendment to the sundry civil approprta-
ton bill. granting an annual allowance for
the payment of the railroad fares Of the
President and his personal parties when
ever he goes traveHngo At present the
proposed appropriation stands at s25.OOO.
This sum Is entirely too small. 1t should
at least be doubled, and the Senate should
so amend the amendment to the appropria-
tion bill which it has already adopted. or
the separate bill which yesterday passed
tho House.
In the course of his term OF office the
President of the United States Is required
In the public interest to take many long
trips Some OF these journeys carry him
entirely across the continent. If he travels
In dignified state. not with the ostentation
of potentate, but with the proper com
fort of the American chief executive, one
o: these trans-continental trips may easily
cost more than the entire sum which It is
now proposed to provide for an entire year s
travelling. Indeed, the Pacific coast trip
OF President Roosevelt. 1t Is estimated. cost
fully $4,000, and yet there was no ex-
travagance
Congress should supply the President with
every facility for going about freely and
seeing all parts of the country. and It
should not cause him, through its penuri-
Gus doing out of the funds. to go into his
own pocket In order to meet his expenses.
The salary paid to him is ridiculousiy small,
considering the exactions and the response
btlities of his office. When he travels ne
must be accompanied by sufficient num-
Der of people to enable him to transact
the public business on his route. He cam
not go about like the average citizen, with
grip In hand and without attendants. He
must be safeguarded from the over-curious
and the intrusive. His trips are necessarily
more expensive than those of other people.
With the appropriation standing at SO
900 the President will travel less than ne
should, or he will be forced to go into his
own pocket or accept favors from the rail-
roads, however disguised they may be-.
None OF these three results Is desirable OF
necessary. The country is surely rich
enough to provide literally for the goings
and comings of Its executive and to give
his travels the dignity and comforts which
the office demands

There are many men who have acquired

that special privileges be wiped out. that
