that we must have a strong voice TO

Replies to Gallinger.

Col. e 3. Townsend. president of the
Mount Pleasant Citizens Association.
bitterly denounced Senator Ga!Iinger's
reference to the people of the District
as being two hundred thousand
chronic kickers" and Representative
Hepburn's charge that the city was
dominated by a selfish real estate ring.
The shame OF Congress" he called the
speeches.
These improper references" declared
Colonel Townsend. are not only unfair
but display an utter lack OF knowledge
of the true situation in the District.
These men," ne added, with irony,
would not dare TO offer such an insult
10 their own constituency, for they
realize, as willy politicians do, that IL
would mean their political suicide. Nor
would they affront the people here If
We had representation In Congress"
DR.. II. l. E- Johnson made a vigorous
speech in which he reiterated the words
OF President Shoemaker, that All de-
partments or the District government
are inadequate To the needs Of the peO-
PIE because OF Federal control.

Intermarriage and Cancer.

So little is really known of the mys
teries of cancer that the merest scraps
of information with regard to it ought
not to be neglected. At the village Of
Clovelly, on the north Devon coast, a
very large percentage of deaths is due
to cancer, and the reason locally given
is the habit of intermarriage necessari-
ly brought about in a place so widely
severed from the outside world. The
state of affairs appears to be even
worse at Buck Mills, a fishing hamlet
three miles away, where intermarriage
has been carried to such an extreme
that one surname is almost sufficient
to designate the whole of the popula-
ton of the yillage.-London Telegraph.

Kingflshers as weathercoc1s.

There is very quaint old world
superstition i'll connection with the

here and there in remote parts Of the
countryside The superstition is this:
If Il stuffed or dried kingfsher DO su&-

Dead of France.
In the center of the most oon,,,o,,s

Pere-la-ChaiSe, the city of the dead
All leteS OF the faubourg beat against
the walls of this spot, which has it's

century this cemetery has become
the abode of at least 100000 dead IF

name Champ Leveque Under Touis
NV. it was known at Mont Louis Ar
Iast, May 81, 1904, the official opening
OF the new metropolis took place.
Inc white mauSoleums among the
green trees remind the visitor of an
oriental city, but it is estimated that in
twenty years there will not be space
enough Tor one lone dead man. A cal
culatlon has been made which would
point to the fact that the sum of $50
OUO'OOO is represented in these last
sleeping places of man. Even though
t1e FRENCH may not always be grateful
during the life of their ilIuStriOuS chill
dren, there is n mighty attempt after
death to prove appreciation. Among
the famous men who are today living
calm and beloved in Pere-la -Chaise are
Rossini, Bellini, Chopin, members Of
the famous Carnot family, Moliere, La
Fontaine, DelacrOX and Balzac.
Here the tomb of Heloise and Abe
lard is visited continually by large num-
DerS Of pilgrims. and there is never an
END to the sentiment around the Gothic
monument rising from the bright hued
geraniumS and roses. Notwithstanding
the iron railing. many a lover carries
from the hallowed spot Il petal blown
across by the obliging breeze. Except
for one section. where considerable
number of artists and authors, brothers
in beauty and inspiration, are grouped,
the tomOs succeed each other without
much order. There is single mOnu-
ment erected by the state to the sol
diers killed in the siege of Paris.
