SIMS WILL CONTINUE TO
HOLD UP TRACKAGE BILL

WASHINGTON, May 19.-Replying
to the charge of local newspapers that
he wos holding up the District OF
Columbia street railway trackage: bill
which provides for tracks to the new
union station and for universal trans
fers, Representative Sims today We
hemently declared in the house that
he would hold up these creatures Of
legislative favor, until doomsday, or
until the railroads got humble enough
to do Justice to the. people Of the Dis
trict of Columbia. He read from reso-
lutions passed last by the central la
Dor in favor of universal transfers and
said he was willing to stand by or
ganized labor as against corporations
''who are getting an unjust and un-
holy dividend upon triple watered
stock"
His attitude in the matter, he said,
was the most honorable service in
which he had ever been engaged.

Why We Wear Glasses.

Mans eyes at rest are far focused
will make no effort when seeing the
moon or earthly horizons. Birds anc
fishes eyes at rest are near focused
will make no effort when looking at
nearby worms and minnows. Mans
elastic lenses are under constant fiat
tening compression. Imagine q rub
Der ball Of fiattened convex lenslikc
shape laid In between two disks of
canvas and the uniting edges Of these
cloths stretched to ring. They would
flatten the rubber and if relaxed it
would thicken by It's own elasticity
The thicker the lens the shorter it
focus. For reading or threading =
needle we relax the tension on the lens
by contracting a ring of muscle sur
rounding each lens and then wait for
the lenses to thicken through their
elasticity. In fish the lens is SET
against the cornea approximately,
short focus, and when it wants to Sc.
whether the shadowy object some feet
away is shark or log it pulls the
entire round lens toward the retinH
and gets as clear a vision as possible
Now we see why so many human
beings need 'spectacles" as they grow
old-the elasticity Of the lenses il
gradually lost, just as it is in rubber.

DREN AT HAGER THEATRE

Another we'll filled house greeted
the second performance of the de-

Theatre, and this play as presented
by the Ashton Stock Company is in
deed noteworthy production. The
play is decidedly high class. And in
teresting from start to finish, All the
members are at their best especially
Herbert Ashton as the shrewd de-
tective. His many lightning changes
are bewildering. Miss Branscombe is
delightful as the loving young wife
and as usual looks charming. Miss
Graham makes a capital "boy" and
the remainder of the company are ex-
cellent. On Monday night the great
military play "The Fatal Rose" will
be staged and every patriotic Ameri-
can will have chance to show their
appreciation, and to witness what
life on battlefield is like. Director
Ashton speaks very highly of this
play and it is sure to please. The
latest motion pictures will also be
shown on Sunday afternoon which is
ladies day, two reels of moving pic
lures besides the four acts of Nick
