DIZZY FIGURES IN DOLLARS

The average reader does not care
much about what congress has done.
or how much has been spent, but &C
casionally he may look at the figures
if they are put in curious way.
A Washington correspondent, says
that the amount of money appropriate
ed by the last session of congress.
which adjourned Monday, would make
a continuous strip of $50 bills reach
ing from New York to San Francisco.
That if coined in silver dollars it
would require 1,4O0 freight cars Of
40 tons each to carry the money.
That would mean 20 freight trains
loaded down with nothing but silver
dollars Put in actual figures, which
few can comprehend, congress appr0-
priated $1,S00,1 ,9S095. Of course
this sum will not be interesting to
that class who have no idea other
than that the government actually
creates the money and cannot COM
prehend that every dollar, whether
coin or paper, presents that amount
of value Of labor or tax paid by the
people in tariff, internal revenue, or
otherwise, anu that the government
has no more money of it's own than
! the pOcrest pauper.

NO QUORUM in THE

The legislature met at the
usual hour this morning with
a quorum, but there being a
perponderence of Democrats
there, four Republicans slip
ed out Of the chamber and
forced an adjournment. The
Sergeant at arms was sent
after these members but
was unable to find them in
the building as they had
gone away and was beyond
his reach. Thus public bust
ness was held up simply be-
cause there were not suffi-
cient Republicans present to
pass the library bill. The
house was therefore forced
to adjourn until 2 o'clock.

From Washington Core
spondence.

A few days ago Senator Hev-
burn addressed the legislative
council Of the American Medical
Association. The subject Of his
address was patent medicines
and impurefoods. The members
OF the association have a very
friendly feeling for Senator Hev-
burn on account of the services
rendered by him in the enact
ment OF the pure food legislation
last year. The members Of the
association We're very much in
terested in this work as they
were almost unanimously in ia
vor OF the pure food bill. A great
deal OF credit for the passage Of
the pure food law is due the
American Medical Association
Tor arousing public sentiment in
favor OF the measure.
During the course of his re-
marks, Senator Hepburn very
bitterly assailed patent and pro-
prletary medicines. Hesaid that
the time was coming when Con-
gress would be asked for legisia-
ton that would exclude them
from the mails. Many Of these
were harmless, he said, SO far as
their effect on the patient, but
they were all frauds and we're bv
no means harmless to the pocket
books though they may be to
stomach. He said he thought
that influence should be brought
20 pear onnewspapers toprevent
them from printing advertise
ments Of patent medicines, and
that it would be just as laudable
1or a newspaper to print adver-
tlsements Of bombs and internal
machines that are warranted to
pc sure and effective in the de-
struction OF life and property.
The Senator said that he once
got pension for an old couple
IN Idaho, and a little later when
they came back to get the pen
sion increased he found out that
the need for the extra money
arose from the fact that they
were spending more than half
theirincomeforpatent medicines.

DAILY IMPROVEMENT

That high school rowing is gaining a
great hold on the public mind throughout
the country is evinced by the reports re-
ceiyed by the stewards of the American
Rowing Association. In nearly every city
where rowing clubs abound, one or more
organizations have thrown open their doors
to these ambitious youngsters, and the en-
tries in the scholastic eight-oared event for
the Franklin cup far exceed all eXpecta-
tons.
SO enthusiastic are the stewards over this
entry list that they say were this the
only race of the day it would be enough, as
far as entries and interest are concerned, to
make the affair success. The cities of
New York. Philadelphia, Worcester and
Boston have had such crews In the past,
and lately Commodore Pilkington of the

other crew from one of the high schools.
There is also talk of forming an eight

PREDICTS A GREAT SEASON
JOHN E. MADDEN COMMENTS ON
THE RACING OUTLOOK.
Doesn't Believe That the Sport Will
Ever Be Stamped Out in
New York.

John E. Madden, the veteran horseman,
takes a decidedly different view from New
ton Bennington regarding the future of the
turf He said in recent interview:
Il think we have a great season ahead OF
us. Though the past winter was severe
one it was an unusually heal.ly one lor
horses and there has been little or no sick
ness. Horses have improved wonderfully
and the sport will be of higher class than
last season. l think ] have great three
year-old in Salvdere, but l confess that l
am impressed with DcMund. He has i'm
proved wonderfully under Garth's handling
and | an confident that he will not only
show great speed, but carry that speed over
a route He is decidedly a dangerous horse
Horace F. and Sir Wilfred also look Won
derfully we'll.
Il don't believe that racing will ever be
stamped out in New York. 1t has too
strong a hold on the affections of the peo-
pie. The public is growing to love the sport
more for the sport itself than for the OPP
portunity which it affords for speculation.
PlungerS gradually becoming extinct.
Men who used to make big wagers are now
content with moderate ones just as sort
of spice to the races they see. l believe
that racing would flourish even If the
Percy-Gray law were repealed. Perhaps
higher admission would be charged, but L
believe the public would be loyal and would
continue to support the sport even under the
restrictions placed upon betting. l have
great faith in the future of eastern racing
and the loyalty of the people VINO support il.
AS Il matter. of act, racing has in the
past ten years entirely changed in New
York There was time when racing de-
pended entirely upon the betting ring.
Ronkmakers were charged a hundred dol
lars day Free badges were scattered
about in abundance. Race-traCk managers
then cared little for the gate receipts. What
they wanted was crowd, and it mattered
little what the character of that crowd
might be so long as it filled the betting
ring and made business for the books.
Now the race tracks derive no revenue from
the betting ring. Free badges are con-
spicuoUs by their rarity. The price of .ad-
mission has been doubled and there has
been a gradual change in the character OF
racing patrons. Racing in the old days de-
pended upon recruits from the bar room
and sums. Today the dsreputahle char
acter is rarity. y man no longer fears
to take his wife or his sister or his sweet
heart to the races. He goes, enjoys him
self and tells his experiences. His trip is
not made in secrecy as in the old days
when the race track was spoken of in whls-
pers and mentioned place best to be
avoided. Today the highest class of people
are steady race, patrons. They can afford
the pleasure"

Interesting Season Promised.
The season now opening promises to be
one Of the most interesting in the history
of the club. Already the members are
showing much interest in the program for
the year, and President Lohr and the of
ficers of the club who have the matter in
charge are busy mapping out a program
for the seasons work. 1t is too early to
announce what that program will be, but
1t will include a number of competitive
shoots with the gun clubs of this city, and
tournaments will be arranged In which the
clubs of Maryland. Virginia and other
states will be invited to take part. Handi-
cap events will be given frequently, and
the program will DE SO arranged as to
bring out all the shooting ability there Is
in the members of the club. The Eastern
Branch Gun Club Is now an institution of
the city, and Is here to stay. Its growth
has been stead! and is assured. Members
of the club say an increasing interest is
shown each year In outdoor sports, and
none is taking the popular fancy more than
cunning. This, it Is asserted, makes very
bright the prospects of the local gun clubs.
