vania avenue was arraigned in the Po-
lice Court this morning charged with
vagrancy and begging.
Hes been drunk off and On for the
past week." said Policeman Newkirk.
THE quality of his jag depended upon
his success in the street. Some days,
your honor, he didn't have much luck.

and a sandwich, but I personally saw

NOT TO CHANGE NAME.
Commissioners Disapprove Sugges.
ton RARardin1 18th Street.

The Commissioners have declined to act
on a suggestion by A. L. Bliss, owner of
the buckingham, 01S 18th street. that the
portion of 18th street between 1 and X
streets. on either side of Mcpherson Park
or Square, be known as Mcpherson
Square" or Mcpherson Park
MIR. Bliss says that having a place of
business on the street and feeling that it
is suffering from the confusion Of names
of the streets surrounding Mcpherson
Park he thinks that that portion of 18th
street should be designated differently
than at present.
In a report to the Commissioners. E. M
Talcott, assistant engineer. says: THE
conditions existing at Mcpherson Square
are similar to those at Farragut Square,
and, as far as this office knows. there has
never been any complaint Of any con-
fusion in regard to house numbering or
designations. II is the opinion of this Of
fee that to attempt any remaining Of
streets at the point referred to would re-
suit In further confusion, and as the con-
ditions are at present there is really
no need for any.

The Republican managers
are anxious to forget. and to
have the people, especially the
old soldiers, forget the absurd
speech which Candidate Tai,
delivered in New York on IL q
Memorial day when he made
his deliberate assault upon the
memory of General Grant.
Republicans have not even
sought to show that Mr.. Taft
meant we'll when he referred
to General Grant as a drunk
ard. for 80 judicial and careful
man as Mr.. Taft is alleged to
be could not have made the
statements which he did with
out having done SO intention
ally. Consequently, they most
desire that the speech shall be
forgotten. But the men who
for four years followed the
standard of the illustrious
Union general, whose recollec-
tioE of the valor, patriotism,
humanity and soldier-like
qualities of their famous COM
mander, as we'll as the memory
of many hard fought struggle
under him, are not likely to
forget so soon the studied ef-
fort to cast reproach upon
General Grant. From Memoir
ial day to election day is a
comparatively short time and
they will not forget to record
their disapproval of such utter
ances as those of Mr.. Taft.

Mr.. Charles G. Dawes, once
Controller of the Currency,
now like all people who have
held that Office, financial
power in the land, once wrote
book on American banking.
In that book he took strong
grounds in behalf of the guar
anty OF bank deposits as urged
by Mr.. Bryan. When this fact
was brought out several days
ago Mr.. Dawes pleaded that his
expression in favor of that doc
trnie was an error OF his early
youth, and that now he was
convinced thatit was decidedly
an error. T b e explanation
makes one wonder whether
when Mr.. Dawes was deposit
ing money in a bank he did not
believe as he then wrote that
the bankers should give him Sc
curity for his deposits, and that
he repudiates that expression
now because he is taking de-
posits inetead of making them.
The shoe seems to be on Mr.,
Dawes other foot.
