WAITER DEFENDS TIPPING.
Explains why Public should Submit
TO the Custom.

Explains why Public should submit
TO the Custom.
Editor The Washington Herald:
The tipping question is surely q most
interesting one to the public and an
important consideration to the walters
and other servants in hotels and other
places where polite and special atten-
ton adds 10 the pleasures and COM
forts of the guests. Let me ask in all
fairness what evil there IS in tipping?
Is II not custom instituted by the
people in recognition for prompt atten-
ton and superior service, which greatly
enhances a dinner? Where such atten-
ton is appreciated a tip always fol-
lows, AS for abolishing the practice. st
is impossible so long as human nature
recognizes the fact that hotel employees
are underpRid, work excessively long
hours, and never get the benefit Of sun
days or holidays.
Does the generous Congressman from
Missouri think that it Is too much 10
compensate a waiter for making so
many sRcrihces2 Mr.. Murphy should
know that an occupation of this kind
practically enslaves a man. eliminates
his independence. and causes him 10
dance attention TO the whims OF every
guest, His face must ever be a wreath
OF smiles no matter what the humOr of
a guest may be. How many times does
ii happen that a person gets up late for
an enga cement or has a train 10 catch?
They expect an attendant TO exert him
self to the utmost in their behalf. he
must rush up and down stairs, carry
bags and luggage and cater TO their
every want.
In this case surely a fee is 10 be ex-
pected. Whom does the Congressman
expect to benefit by his measure? Wait
ers' wages range from So 10 $50
month, and with the abolition Of the
tipping system wages must increase,
which viii mean an advance IN the
price Of meals, and this in itself will
amount 20 several times the amount OF
the average tip. Il is a mistake to as
sumo that the hotel company profits by
the tips.
The patron really has the advantages.
as all food supplies are now sold al the
lowest possible rates. considering the
elaborate service. At the rate Of wages
which the hotels could pay the help
could not be competent nor will raw
men serve long enough to learn the
business and become useful to the
public Ny advice to the generous
Congressman would be to devote him
self to something more worthy than
his vain attempt to eKtinguish even a
spark or human generosity.

HOSPITAL DEATH ACCIDENTAL
Mrs. Fitzpatrick Had Weak Heart
UsnaI Examination Was Made.

In connection with the death Of Mrs.
Kate S. Fitzpatrick, of 1898 E street north
east, who died Wednesday, at the
Casualty Hospital, while under an anaes-
thetic. Coroner hewitt announced last
night that he was OF the opinion that the
death was accidental.
Or. hewitt stated that the examination
of the body of Mrs. Fitzpatrick showed
without any doubt that she had been
troubled with a weak heart. but that the
doctors were unable TO learn this by their
hurried examinatio previous to giving
the anaestheuc He said that unless a
thorough examination had been made
this slight weakness would not have been
discovered,
The hospital officials vouch for the re-
liability Of the doctor who administered
the anaesthetie in so much that he has
successfully performed that office in over
100 operations. They say the usual exami-
nation was made.

How Piutes Catch Quail.

The piutes have unique way or
getting quail. For them there Is no
closed season or, indeed, any game
law whatever. Seasons when the quail
come down from the mountains to the
spring the Indians make great prepa
ration for their capture. They build
bough house with long slender
opening In the front formed OF tall
straight sticks set closely together.
Within the house an Indian sits con
cealed, holding n long timber rod,
which he operates dexterously through
the narrow opening. In the early
morning when the birds flock down for
water he picks them of one at II time,
killing them instantly. There Is no re-
port In this manner of hunting to
frightcn the others away. and the Indi.
an often gets enough game in n single
morning for the whole settlement
