WHERE TO COURT.

Young man, do your counting in the
kitchen. For there will come a time
(if you marry) when the happiness Of
your home, the sunshine Of your exist
ence will depend on the ability OF your
tootsy wootsy to make good bread and
fry flap jacks. You can't be happy,
Ono man CAM, if you begin the day by
loading your stomach with tough steak,
soggy biscuits and bum coffee. These
things may be born with silent fortitude
for time, but after few years, with
plenty OF time to reflect and with visions
OF mothers kitchen, the fondest heart
may cool off a few degrees and the idea
of making a martyr of yourself for the
sake OF a girl who was to lazy or indif-
ferent to learn to cook will not appeal
to you as it once did. So our advice
to young man is to do his counting in
the kitchen. Give May Jane or Sweet
Maree to understand that you care
more about her ability to make bread
than you do about her ability to play
the piano. After you are married if
you don't like her playing you can retire
to the back yard and talk to the COW,
but three times day, 1895 times a
year, you must sit down and eat her
cooking or starve, and my word for it
you can never live happily on an empty
stomach. Therefore do your counting
in the kitchen. Tell her to give her
poor, tired old mother rest, and while
you and your intended prepare supper
and wash the dishes invite her mother
to sit in the parlor and rest her weary
bones. You may laugh at this, you
young men who are just dying to get
married, and the dear, sweet girls may
think we don't know what we are talk
ing about, but just the same its gospel

too prevalent class deserve. Let them

selves before condemning others for
their poverty and want. What most of
these fellows need is a god sweat and
an honest effort to help themselves and
they will then need no sympathy.

LECTURE ON GUIANA.
Life in British Colony Described by
Prof. Angelo Heilprin.

Tro1. angelo de1lpr1n.
Prof. Angelo Heilprin of Yale University
lectured on THE Guiana before the Geo.
graphic Society at National Rifles Ar
mory last night. He said his lecture was
based upon one comparatively short visit
which was made for the purpose of seeing
the weHderfts forests before they become
invaded by man. His only description of
the forests was that they are wonderfully
and overwhelmingly grand.
He said the interior of these forests is
remarkable for the variety of its animal
life.
In going through the forests" he said.
you pass every kind of tropical xhimal
and bird. and the remarkable think about
it is that they are absolutely unconscious
of the existence of man or know that he is
their enemy. A big black jaguar passed
within a hundred feet of me and paid no
more attention to me than II had been
some tree. Certain parts of the forests are
alive night and day with the wild shrill
shrieks and yels Of monkeys" DR.. He'll
prin also gave the results of his observa-
lions of the various other wild animals and
birds, devoting much time to the blood
sucking bat.
He used British Guiana as the object of
his lecture He said this country has a
population Of 100000 Of which not more
than 10000 are whites, the remainder being
Indians, negroes and West India negroes
The only city or town Of any consequence,
according to him, is Georgetown, the CAPT
tai. 1t has population of possibly 6O.v00
and Is marked with almost every modern
convenience-trolley cars, electric lights,
underground sewers etc.

ASK MORE PAY.
Demand Of the Washington Lodge Of
Nachiufsts


The demand Of the Washington Lodge of
Machinists for An increase Of pay from
minimum OF s. to 1875 a day was Endorsed
yesterday by the executive committee Of
the International Association of Machin-
lists, 1t is said. The members OF Washing
ton Lodge are employed mainly by private
concerns in the District, while those AMI
lated with Columbia Lodge are employees of
the navy yard.
It is said that the Washington employers
at present have the increase demanded by
Washington Lodge under consideration, and
1t is expected that they will grant the in
crease next week. If they do not, 1t may
result in strike, as the action taken by
the lodge and Endorsed by the executive
committee makes 1t impossible for the men
to work for less than 1925 a day.
The executive committee Of the machin-
lists, composed of James O'Connell of
washington, president; Hugh Doran of
Chicago, Edward L. Tucker OF this city;
Henry Garrett of Atlanta, Ga; James A.
REYNOLDS of Cleveland, M. J. Ford Of New

been in session all this week and will con-
tinue over until Monday.

business has been gone over and disposed
of, and the. committee yesterday devoted
itself to the settlement of the accounts of
the association. The association has about
$4,000 In cash and bonds deposited in
bank.

Miss Won Unschuld's Pupils Recital

The piano recital given by the pupils of
Frauein Won Unschuld last Friday after
noon in the ball room of the New Willard
was an interesting affair. The program
was chosen with taste and we'll rendered
throughout. The ensemble playing of the
Weber overture, "Enryante." by the Misses
Hardness, Robinson, Stewart and Fisher
was noticeable for marked precision off
touch and the Peer Gynt Suite rendered by
Misses Terrell, Tweddy, Wheeler and Ur-
ness remarkable for it's shading in the diff
ferent movements Little Miss Mildred
Kolb showed surprising brilliancy and
beauty of tone for one young in the
Largo of a Beethoven Sonata. Miss Ethel
Fisher, another little girl, evinced much
proficiency and Miss Roberta Amies aroused
considerable enthusiasm by her rendition Of
The "Conzertstuck," by Weber. Miss Kath-
crime Mcneil in the "Campanela,' by List
and the Erlking showed brilliant technique
and power of Interpretation. Fraulein Won
Unschuld always gives something new and
interesting. On this occasion it was Weber's
Perpetual Movement on three pianos by the
Misses Amies, Kolb and Mcneil. The Scho-
pin Scherzo by Miss Martha Crness and a
List rhapsody by Nellie Neil closed the
program of an artistic pupils recital.

Satisfactory Results.

Tonight will close the first week Of the
fair and bazaar by Columbia Lodge. No. TO-
/. o. o. F. at the eth street hall, and OH
GERS of the lodge and those in charge of the
carnival express themselves as pleased with
the results so far attained. The severe
weather of the first of the week caused a
most inauspicious opening and consequent
small attendance during the first two or
three nights but their friends were not I'M
mindful of the duty they owed the famous
degree team. which has brought fame to
the city as we'll as to Odd Fellowship Of
the District and turned out quite literally
during the succeeding days of the week.
There was a good-sized crowd in the hall
all of last evening and all the booths, came
in for a share of the patronage. The flower
BOOTH the soft-drinks stand. the fancy
goods table and the paddle stand were the
centers of animated throngs.
The big goat, as usual, received the lions
share of attention and he scored another
sensation last night. Some wag, without
the knowledge of Harry J. Redfeld. the
keeper" slipped roller skates the
brute's feet and when the orchestra struck
up Waiting at the Church his goatship
waited no longer but sailed up the hall like
one trying to catch the last car. There
was some lively scampering and for a min
ute it resembled the scene produced by a
mouse in ladys boudoir After the goat
circled the hall a few times the frightened
folks climbed down from the sides Of the
walls and the goat was soon quieted with
few choice tidbits of old overshoes and
tin cans.
In the Japanese tea garden tonight the
musical program will be particularly inter-
estng. Miss Amy Clement Leavitt. assisted
by Miss Annie Eaton, will render some
choice numbers. Miss Eaton will sing RE
membrance,"~ by Laurence; Our Life Is
Vain,' by Johns. and "A Dream, by Bart
lett. Miss Leavitt will play Dennees Rus
sian Dance" GavOtte Moderne by Tours and
a Polonaise, by Parker. Miss Leavitt ranks
among the best pianists in the city and in
terprets music with the ear of the trained
teacher Besides the musical program the
child contOrtionist, Little Alma Nelson, ten
years old, will give an exhibition.
Mr.. Painter sang number of comic
songs last night.

to stop them, but the horses showed no
signs of hating until after they had
struck and overturned a delivery wagon
belonging to Henry Pfeister, florist. The
collision occurred near Dupont Circle, the

MYSTERY Is SOLVED.
Woman Injured by Exploded Can,
Not by Shot.

Not by Shot.
"A woman was shot at 1728, street
northwest a few minutes ago.. was the
message received at police headquarters
last evening about Z o'clock, and Inspector
Boardman sent Detectives Helan, McNamee
and OBrien to the house indicated to make
an investigations.
Lizzie Carter, eolored domestic, had
been removed to the Emergency Hospital
when the detectives reached the house. It
was stated to the sleuths that the case was
very peculiar one, and the occupants of
the house and the physician who had been
summoned agreed that the detectives had
mystery on their hands. The kitchen win
dow was open at the time the report was
heard and the woman gave cry indicating
that she had been hurt, but there was sign
of no person on the outside of the window.
Detective Cox of the third precinct and
several policemen from that precinct called
at the house to assist in the investigation
but it was not until after their departure
that Mr.. E. V. Weems, who resides in the
house, discovered that the Carter woman
had probably been wounded by piece of
tin can that contained asparagus. Lizzie
was preparing to serve the asparagus for
dinner and, 1t is supposed, the can became
overheated and exploded.
At the Emergency Hospital the surgeons
found that wound had been sustained
over the right eye and that the piece of
metal had destroyed the sight and passed
to one side.

ADR1FT IN SMALL BOAT.
Assistant Keeper Of Light Station Has
Marrow Escape.


Can't. Bob Brown of this city, master of
the Washington tug William H. Yerkes,
Jr., was instrumental Thursday last in
saving the life of a man adrift in a small
boat amid the ice masses drifting about
on Chesapeake bay, and had it not been for
the timely appearance of the Yerkes, 1t is
probable that the man would have lost his
life. The story the man told after being
rescued is one of danger and suffering from
the intense cold. The Yerkes was on her
way up Chesapeake bay. assisting the tug
Radiant to tow two light barges to Balti-
more. About 8 o'clock Thursday morning,
off Bloody Point the man in the pilot house
of the Yerkes saw a small boat adrift in
the ice, and Capt Browns attention was
called to it. With the glasses Capt Brown
could make out what seemed to be a man
in the boat making signals to him.
Signaling to the Radiant, the course Of
the Yerkes was changed and running along
side the boat, the half-frozen man was TAX
en- aboard the tug. The man was Charles
Lawson, assistant keeper of the light sta
ton at Thomas Point. He had been ashore
and had left the mainland little before,
shutdown Wednesday evening to go to the
lighthouse. The heavy ice caught the boat,
and he was unable to eXtricate her, and in
endeavoring to do so broke his oar. The
ice drifted in within fifty feet of the light
house and the keeper endeavored to throw
him line. but was unable to do SO as the
ice carried him by. All night he drifted
with the temperature at zero, and in dan
ger of having hts small craft crushed by
the big ice sheets among which 1t drifted.
When picked up Lawson's ears, nose, hands
and feet were frostbitten, and he had to be
lifted from the boat to the tug He was
made comfortable aboard the Yerkes, until
the Ice boat Latrobe, Capt. Geoghegan. was
met, and the man was transferred to her
and taken to Annapolis, where he was
placed in a hospital for medical attention.
His condition is serious but it is stated he
will recover.
