BERLIN'S POVERTY GROWS.
One Hundred Thousan q Men Idle;
Much HOrseflesh Eaten.

Berlin.-A report of H. j. Brice,
third secretary of the British embas-
hy at Berlin. bearing upon the con-
ditions Of life in the kaiser's capital,
is being reproduced by the socialist
press, as it contains figures not yet
compiled by the German government.
An interesting feature of the report
is the number Of unemployed, COM
piled by a political party. Two other
features are the increase of beggary
and Of the consumption of horse
meat
The census of the unemployed OBJ
tained from the district schools by
the government has been declared to
be erroneous. In last January the
municipality declined the gratuitous
assistance of $4,000 organized work
men offered them by the social dem
ocratic organization to make house
to house visitation. Thereupon the
organization decided to make its own
census. On February 13, 1909, 40,-
600 workmen visited the houses Of
all the organized workmen in Berlin
and forty-four suburbs, and made
register OF those out of work. The
total number amounted to 101,30
(Berlin, 67,367; suburbs between the
two censuses of about 76 O00-a dis
crepancy that can partly be explain
ed by the fact that as the social DEM
ocrat census took place on the 18th
many workmen declined to register
again at the bureau of the munich
pality on the 18th. Further, under
the municipal system, those out of
work had to proceed to the offices
to register their names. Thousands
refused to do this, as they preferred
using the time to find to find occu-
patton at the labor exchanges or else
where. Others knew nothing about
the census

Prison stripes.

From the Kansas Cts star
One Of the best of the peniientiary re-
forms promised by the Hadlev admins
tration has been put into effect. This is
the change in the convict garb from the
coarse striped clothing to uniform suits
Of an unoffending color and Of ordinary
civilian cut. In accordance with the teach
ings of the best prison discipline. the
stripes, denoting degradation, are to be
reserved as a mark Of punishment within
the penitentiary. Experience has proved
that there is no greater incentive to con-
victs 10 behave wen. within the prison
than the fear that a serious infractioH OF
the rules will put them back in the striped
clothing Gov. Hadley and the warden,
Maj. Andrae are 20 be commended for
following progressive, humanitarian pre-
cedents in the treatment of convicts.
There could hardly be a stronger refu-
tation OF the old-fashiOned. unthinking
notion that the commission of a crime

What the People Want.

The District Commissioners now have a
very clear idea of the needs OF the Dis
trict. The meeting last Monday night de-
veloped a number Of able orators, whose
appeals. direct. clear, and practical, afford
ample foundation for future endeavor.
II is worth while 10 notice that the ma
jority of the needs appertain TO the sub
urban sections. The center of the city
seems 10 have been we'll cared for. In
the outlying districts there is a demand
for better streets and roads. more light.
a larger degree OF police protection, and
an extension Of water mains and sewers.
All these should be afforded, but, as a
matter Of fact il is quite evident that as
long is Congressional appropriations are
curtailed the march OF improvement will
be slow. IL is great pity that some
thing cannot be done, and done speedily.
in the way of extending water mains.
Under the present system, the necessary
water service cannot be supplied until
not money enough for both. many Of the
largely populated suburban sections are
deprived of conveniences which ought 10
be universal This is especially true OF
the Conduit road district, where the de-
privation has been of long existence.
There is reason 10 believe that the
reclamation OF the Anacostia Flats will be
undertaken in tho near future. Congress
seems to realize that present conditions
are unhealthy 10 a dangerous degree.
The first appropriation for the new Nor
mai School Is in the pending District bud
get and in course of time the workhouse
and reformatory will be removed from
their present location and established in
Maryland or Virginia. The removal OF
the garbage transfer station Is not yet as
sured. nor is there immediate prospect
of other much-desired wants. such as q
new Eastern High school At the same
time, much progress has been made, and
the fact that the citizens are alive to the
needs of their sections will help TO i'm
press local affairs upon Congress. With
the earnest cooperation of the District
] Commissioners. who are thoroughly in
/ harmony with the endeavor to improve
conditions, there ought 10 be no doubt Of
substantial accomplishment in the near
! future.

Those Who Ride Hobbies.

More power 10 the man who has a
hobby He may often be looked upon as
a nuisance. but when we dissect him We
ind that in his makeup there is much
more to praise than to criticise, although
it is easy enough to ridicule the hobby
rider He is seriously enthusiastic and
intent on a single purpose. He does not
waste mis- ammunition. This singIe-mind-
edness Of purpose which lays him liable
to scorn is the essential cause Of prog
ress.
Pioneers are essential in any line Of en-
deavor Unless they had a hobby they
swould follow the beaten path. OF the lire
Of least resistance. and the result would
be that the world would not have taken
a forward step. All hobbies are not use
full or economic, but it is for men Of So
Der mind, who are too matter-Of-fact 20
have hobbies themselves. TO distinguish
between those which are beneficial and
those which are extravagant and foolish.
Practically all great thinkers. and GER
tainly all great inventors, were hobby
riders Columbus had a hobby, that Of
getting to the Orient by a westward
route. Ambition was Napoleon's hobby.
If such a condition Of mind can be clas-
sifed. Every great religious teacher rode
his hobby. John Brown had hobby, and
the abolition OF slavery was in great part
due to the propaganda which made him
a martyr. Cyrus W Field laid the first
cable after he was believed insane.
There are a few men versatile enough
to have several hobbies. Col Roosevelt
can be cIassed among these. When a
man of unlimited enthusiasm turns his
attention to some matter of general i'm
portance and forces the remainder of the
world to take sides on that question. he
has set others to thinking and has been
