TALKED TEMPERANCE.
Rev. outwater Urges Hearers to Vote
Against the Liquor Tradac.

The men who will put the next Presi-
dent in the chair-the voters Of the
country-were urged by Rev. Theron
Outwater. in a sermon at the Kendall
Baptist Church last night, to vote for
the downfall of the liquor traffic.
Temperance" was the subject Of the
minister's address, during the course Of
which he said prohibitory laws are due
to agitation. education and legislation. all
three In their places bringing out the
fact OF the evils Of drink and its results
For the District of Columbia. he be-
lieves. popular. vote would never put
prohibition In existence here. and in view
of this fact he urged that every influence
be brought to bear upon Congress and
the legislature to pass such q measure.
Continuing. he said one of the great
reasons why prohibition has not become
more general in this country before now
is the fact that great part Of the reve-
nues of the country comes from the
liquor licenses and taxes. This. he said.
has retarded governmental action.
In his closing remarks Rev. Mr.. Out
water said he is confident that within
the present generation great strides In
the matter will be made toward universal
prohibition. He believes there will be a
constitutional amendment adopted MAX
ing prohibition for the entire United
States. Then the question. he eaid. will
be forever and rightly solved. Liquor
will no longer be manufactured with
government approval. save possibly for
medicinal purposes.

UNCLE SANS NEW NOTES.
Director Ralph Making 06od Pro-
press in Getting Them Out.

Director Ralph Of the bureau of engrav-
ing and printing is making noteworthy
progress in getting out the new notes un-
der the emergency currency act, passed
at the last session Of Congress. About
$95. OOOOO have already been printed and
delivered to the Treasury. and II Is ex-
pected that the daily output from this
time on will be fully $c.500OO0 If this
average is kept up the full $500 900. 600
authorized by the act will be printed and
ready for delivery to the banks, as re-
quired. by February. 1909.
The notes now being printed are for the
national banks in the reserve cities. and
as these are supplied banks in other than
reserve cities having q capital Of 500. 900
or over. will be taken up and they will be
followed by the smaller banks in all Sec
tons of the country.
1t Is the purpose Of the Treasury De-
partment to substitute these notes for
those now in use as soon as possible and It
Is thought that within the next three
months the department will be able to
discontinue altogether the present notes
and begin the general use Of the new ones.
The new notes differ from those now In
use only by the addition of the words cor
other securties'' to the legend on their
face. so that II will read: This note Is Sc
cured by United States bonds or other
securities.

WON'T HAVE THE FANGs.
Rodney Rose Gives Rattler's Teeth
to DIR. Carr.

A presentation Of an unusual character
was made yesterday to Rodney Rose. the
keeper at the Zoo who was recently
saved from death from a rattlesnake bite.
Mr.. Rose received at the Emergency
Hospital the twin fangs of the "rattler'
which had bitten him.
The fangs were extracted from the
snake by the Zoo officials for the pur-
pose Of presenting them to their brother
keeper, who came so near to deaths
door as a result Of the venomous bite.
Mr. Rose Is said to have shuddered Wis
IDLY as he looked at the fangs which had
injected the poisonous fluid into his
blood. The twin faugs are half hollow
and dangerous-looking weapons. each
about half an inch long. 1t was explained
to Rose that all the venomous fluid had
been extracted from the hollow places.
But Mr.. Rose evidently did not care to
keep the fangs which came 20 near to
ending his career. After examining the
things, being careful to avoid their keen
points, he presented them TO DR.. William
c. Carr, whose skillfui handling of the
case saved his life. It was stated by the
Emergency Hospital ply sicians that Rose

OPPOSE G0MPERS' PLANS
CRITICISM OF LABOR CHIEFS
LATEST POLITICAL MOVE.
Member of Columbia Typographical
Union to Introduce Important
Resolution at Next Meeting.

Criticism Of the action of Samuel
Gompers and his recent editorial advis-
ing organized labor to support the cam
didacy of William Jennings Bryan has
been made by several leaders of work
ingmen in this and other cities. In this
connection a statement of local interest
was made today by Joseph E. Goodkey
Of Columbia Typographical Union, No.
1O1.
Mr.. Goodkey said it rs his purpose at
the next meeting of the printers union to
introduce resolution withdrawing the
delegates of Columbia Union from the
Central Labor Union. He added that he
had determined upon this action on ac-
count of President GOmpers attempting
to throw the labor vote to Bryan"
II do not believe Mr.. Goodkey added,
in demoraliztng labor, which is now
united after disastrous struggle. and
l have faith enough in the American
the dictates of any man. but for the per-
petuance OF men and party that give to
them prosperity and high wages"
Gompers' Purpose Plain.
Word came today from New York that
J. f. Pritchard. national secretary Of the
PAYERS and Hammers Union, In a re-
cent statement said:
'"The present course of Mr. Gompers in
praisng Bryan and the democratic party
as the friends of labor. then telling the
unions that they should support their
friends and saying this was not party
politics, Is a slur on the intelligence Of all
union men. This kind of quibbling would
not deceive a -year-old child. 1t
would be far more honest for Mr.. Com
pers to come out openly and ask the
voters In the unions to vote the demo-
cratic ticket. We all know now that he
is trying to get the unions to support
Bryan, and the thing is getting to be a
farce"
