Pedestrians in the Streets.

The grand jury of this District has
indicted for manslaughter d chauffeur
who is charged with running over and
killing laborer. 1t may be that in
this case the charge is well founded, and,
at any rate, the fact that the grand jury
has acted is a sufficient warning to
operators of automobiles that they can
not hope to escape the penalty of care
less. and reckless driving.
At the same time, there is probably
no city in the country where unavoida-
bic accidents are as liable to occur as in
Washington, and where the necessity for
caution on the part of the drivers of all
kinds of vehicles is so imperative The
roadways of Washington are, in the es-
timation of hundreds of people, merely
an extension of the pavement These
people do not cross at street corners,
but suddenly step out upon the roadway
at any point which suits their conven-
fence. If the pavement is in bad condi-
ton, they use the asphalt They wander
along in utter indifference tc the fact
that they interfere with vehic1lar traffic,
and they frequently stop to hold con-
versation with each other The chill
dren use the streets as 4 playground.
They dart out from the pavement into
the roadway in playing their various
games, and not infrequently they enjoy
standing in the path of an approaching
automobile to see how near it will come
without touching them. The wonder is,
not that there are accidents, but that the
number is not greater than is reported.
This condition does not of course,
excuse recldessness Break-neck speed
on the city's streets is criminal. Rapid
transit around corners is reprehensible.
For such conduct there is only blame
A word ought to be spoken, however,
for the drivers who are willing and
anxious to comply with every letter of
the law, but whose task of keeping out
of trouble is made all the more difficult
by the pedestrians, whose proper place
is on the pavement

Millions to Be Expended Here.

When recently, during period of
some six. or seven years, over $I3,ooo,ooo
was expended in Washington for public
and private enterprise, including the con-
structim of the new Union Station, the
Connecticut avenue bridge, the fltra-
ton plant, and other projects, it seemed
as if the high water mark had been
reached. 1t is evident, however, that
this splendid period of municipal devel-
opment was only the beginning of a
still greater era.
1t IS now certain that within the next
few years some $I5,ooo,ooo O. $eoyoooooo
will be expended in Washington for new
construction, in addition to the ordi
nary building activity. In the first place,
Congress has already by law provided
that the new edlhces to be erected on
the property recently acquired by the
government shall cost 100000, and the
sundry civil appropriation bill just en-
ected carries a sum sufficient to begin
the preparation of the site and of the
plans. 1t is also certain that the old
Arlington Hotel will soon be succeeded
by modern structure costing between
S5,oOo,Ooo and 100000. The Wood
ward building is another substantial un-
dertaking which is already in progress.
while the Southern building is practi-
cally completed. 1t is also apparent
that the increasing revenues of the Dis
trict Will allow an expenditure of some
100000 or 100000 during the next
few years for park purposes, while the
reclamation OF the Anacostia fats, which
has been authorized, will cost at least
100000 additional These are only
the more important items which are
certain to put large sums of money into
circulation here.
1t is worth while thus to look INTO the
future and note the development which
is assured 1t means the growth of
Washington 1t makes certain a steady
increase of business and better oppor-
tunity for employment. The outlook is
one to be contemplated with genuine
satisfaction.

OPPOSED TO RECIPROCITY.
Two Liberal Members of ParIia-
ment State Their Position.
From the Quebec Chronicle.

From the Quebec Chronicle.
Ottawa, Feb 2S-Hon. Clifford Sifton,
former minister of interior, cut away
the ties binding him to the Liberal party
in the house to-day by coming out fat
footed in opposition to the reciprocity
agreement
That the government was deliberately
placing Canada's head ir a moose and
was making the great West a backyard
for the city of Chicago was his firm con-
viction, and in a speech of an hour and
a half he ffayed his former colleagues for
their spineless idiocy in entering into such
an agreement, in which Canada had
everything to lose and little to gain.
Ottawa March 2-Another old-time
Liberal broke from his party to-day in
the house, W. NJ. German, member for
Welland. opposing the reciprocity agree
ment on the grounds of national and busi-
ness interests. Coming as it did. right
on the heels of Mr. Sifton's remarkable
speech, Mr.. Germans outspoken criticism
has thrown the Liberal party in Parlia-
ment into a state closely approaching
panic. and his speech to-day was listened
to by a crowded house and galleries. He
was loudly applauded by the opposition,
but had a very chilly reception from his
colleagues on the government side.

KEEP OFF THE TRACKS.
Fatal Accidents Due to Trespassing
Upon the Railroads.

Prom the Wilmington Every Evening.
The shocking fatality that occurred in
this city, Thursday evening. when a
young woman was killed and a young
man terribly injured by being struck
by a train on the Baltimore and Ohio
Railroad, should stand as a potent warn
ing against the folly of trespassing on
railroad lines.
These two young persons started out
for a walk. and in order to shorten the
way to their destination, made a high
way of the railroad tracks. 1t is a gen.
eral custom of persons residing in the
neiEhborhood. we understand, to make
use of the railroad as a convenience in
this illegal and reprehensible manner.
and these two felt that they could in
'dulge in the practice without danger.
1t is doubtful if they had the slightest
compunctions; indeed, it is possible that
they would have laughed to scorn any
warning from the more prudent Yet
they deliberately entered upon the path
way of death. They noted the approach
of one train and in getting out Of its way
stepped in front of a train approaching
from the opposite direction, and disaster
fell swiftly upon them.
This lamentable happening may be
duplicated any day, nay, any hour of
any day. as long as people persist in the
extremely hazardous practice of employ
ing railroad tracks as public highways.
Years ago the danger was at minimum,
but now it is at the extreme at all times.
by reason of the great number of trains
continually moving in opposite directions
upon all the railroad systems.
People should not trespaSs on railroad
properties, and the railroad authorities
should resolve to sternly enforce the law
against such trespass. If not, the ter
rible slaughter will continue

New Hotel at West Point.

A new hotel is very much needed at
West Point, according to Col s. R. Will
Jams, of Philadelphia, Pa, who is at
the New Ebbitt.
THE old one" said he, (which has ac-
commodated the public for half a CEN
tury. is old-fashioned, inconvenient. and
too small to take care of 10 per cent

hospitality found than in Officers Row.

AT commencement time, and when
there are football games and dances.
every house at the post is filed to over
flowing, and the families of the hosts
sleep on the floors and lounges. There
is no complaint on their part, but guests
are always embarrassed when they real
ize what an imposition it is in so many
cases; but there is no alternative. The
hotel has only so many rooms and so
many beds, and they are always filled.
THE plans for the new Academy,
which are now being carried out, include
the erection of fine modern hotel build
ing at the top of the cliff overlooking
the railway and the construction of an
elevator, which will hoist the arrivals
from the station platform to its thresh-
old. But this improvement cannot be
carried out for several years, and even
then it will be difficult to induce anybody
to keep the hotel. because the patronage
is very irregular. Sometimes for few
days there will be twice many guests
as can be accommodated, when there are
functions at the Academy, but for the
greater part of the year, when there IS
nothing special going on, the rooms will
be empty. Furthermore, the landlord is
not allowed to keep a bar or sell wines
or liquors, which diminishes the profits.
No liquor selling is allowed on the res
ervation.''

A New State Rights Problem.

There seems to be justice in the de-
mand that the nation and not the differ
cnt States be held responsible for Fed
eral laws and lax administration. The
number of prisoners in the custody OF
the State of New York has increased
from 3,275 in 1000 to 4,5oo in 1910. Sta
tistics show that the prisoners in that
State are increasing so per cent faster
than the population. and that 81 per cent
of them are foreign born. These figures
seem to uphold the recommendation of
the superintendent of State prisons of
the Empire State that the Federal gov
ernment, which permits alien criminals
to land on its shores, also should as
sumo the burden of maintaining them
when they are convicted OF crime, and
that it should provide prisons where the
discipline, education, and training shall
be especially adapted to this distinctive
class of prisoners.
Every convict costs the State of New
York an average of some $1,000 to main
tain, not to mention the expense of his
trial and conviction. 1t is not the State
law nor the States officers that admit
immigrants into this country, and yet
the States are called upon to foot the
bills occasioned by Uncle Sans hos
pitality. If the States are to bear this
burden, they ask an opportunity to ex-
ercise a right at the immigrant stations
to exclude those who are undesirable.
This is a new problem in the relation
of the States to the Federal govern
ment.
The Washington herald., 1911-03-10
"King Bess. "

! Bran Stoker, writing of what he calls
the deceit about Queen Elizabeth" de-
clares that this queen was not a queen,
but king. He states, at least with
enough historic incident, that when
Elizabeth was a little girl and under
wardship in the west of England, she
died just as her father, King Henry
VIII, was about to make paternal
visit The alarmed guardian, seeking
to evade the Kings anger, sought out
red-haired child and could find only
red-haired boy In the village This
boy was invested with the royal cloth
ing of Princess Elizabeth, and as time
wore on it was less and less practicable
to tell the King of the loss cf his heir.
The value claimed for this extraordi-
nary tale is that it hints at an expla-
nation of circumstances in the life of
Queen Elizabeth which have long puz-
zled historians. There viii be readers
of this marvellous account who will in
stinctlvely incline to give If credence-
They will feel the significance of the
statement that throughout the early life
of Queen Elizabeth some secret was re-
iigiously guasded. They viii find that
Queen Elizabeth continued to confer
preferment upon Mrs. Ashley and Sir
Thomas Parry, to the end OF their lives.
And they viii recall the most confrna-
tory fact of ALL that Elizabeth never
married.
The principle in such cases seems to
be that truth is stranger than fiction.
If apparently impossible, the more likely
it is to be true. One of the puzzles of
history is the reign of Elizabeth It
was thrilled with the spirit Of discovery.
