ters of a Mr.. Edmands. both of whom
were to marry ministers. One Of the
ministers names was RiChesOn.
shortly after this Avis wrote home
that she had broken her engagement
with Mr.. RiChrsCn at his own request
She made no explanation further than
to say that il was all right"
1t appears. however. that the engage
ment between the young minister and
Hiss Linnell was renewed in the early
summer. Or at least. Miss Linnell and
her family were made to believe that
it was renewed. RiCheson went back
TO Hyannis and spent several days at
the LinnelI home
He laughed at the story connecting
his name with that Of Miss Edmands
saving that il was 4 mere fabrication.
Here again the dupliCity OF RiChesOn
is shown. Within . few days after Ie.v-
ing Hyannis and the home OF the Lin
nellS he hurried to the New Hampshire
summer home of the millionaire's daugh-
ter, and hIstened arrangements for their
marriage. which was TO take place this

No Surprise Here.

The death at Philadelphia Of former
Representative sydney r. Mudd Oc-
Cdyioned little surprise in Washington.
Mr.. Mudd began to fail in health soon
after the death OF his wife more than
three yeaIS ago and for the last two
years il has been known that there was
hardly Il chance Of his recovery
Representative Mudd. or "Marse Svd-
ney'' as he WIS known throughout his
district. was a member of the House of
Representatives for fourteen years. serv-
ing from the Fifty-fifth TO the SiNty-first
Congress. Prior to his election to the
National Legislature he had had an ex-
trcmclv active political career in Mary
land. where his spectacular campaigns
with brass band attachments are still
fondly RENE mbercd by the Colored pOpu-
lation.
Mr. Mudd is given credit for perma-
ncntly locating the United States Naval
Academy at Annapolis. When there was
talk some time ago of removing the
Naval Academy from the historic Mary
land town Mr.. Mudd. who was a member
Of the House Committee on Naval At
fairs. went to work and before he rested
in his laborS had seen Congress authorize
the expenditure OF about $4,000 900 on
permanent Academy plant. He also took
great interest in the Indian Head proving
grounds on the Potomac River about
forty miles below Washington, which
was also in his district inducing Con-
gress to make liberal appropriations for
this institution
Hard work, together with sorrow for
the death of his wife, broke down Mr..
MuddS health. He was also pestered
considerably by constituents from his

Senator Cummins and Revolution.

II NAV be mentioned. with Difference,
that Senator Cummins' address last night
was strong for the occasion-too strong.
Such sentiments should not have been
poured into the ears of the graduating
class Of a law school. Young men and
women. without a days experience with
the great problems OF life, should not
have received such a message from a
source so high.
Let 1t be admitted that lawyers. young
and old, ffedglings and veterans. need
warning. And they have lately been get
ting It, Many of our greatest woes are
ascribed to the veterans Of the profess
sion, some of whom are the guides.

and the defenders of the big criminals
standard Oil operations. tobacco trust
operations. railroad rebating. and other
things considered prejudicial to the pub
lie welfare. have all taken shape under
the advice of men learned in the law and
living by the law. Large retainers have
inspired many ingenious suggestions.
Let 1T he admitted also that our gen.
eraI procedure in court needs overhauling
and Improvement. The great lawyer now
i'm the White House heads the list of
those asserting that much. Our criminal
practice in particular Is pronounced a
disgrace to the age. The selection OF
juries. the rules as to expert testimony.
the delays by appeals upon technicalities
and trivialities do not make for the as
certainment of truth or the execution of
justice.
But, bad as things may be. and large
as may be the responsibility of lawyers

worst practices of selfish men. acting
under the advice of lawyers who put pro-
fessional success above their public duty
as officers of courts and as citizens who
should consider the common veal, might
go unchecked without leading us In a
decade to revolution
Senator Cummins thinks that 9Th. sis
tribution of the vast wealth of the nation
is the greatest problem We are facing
today" But one of the audience he was
addressing-a teacher In the law school
frankly took issue with him. In her ad-
dress she gave the opinion that "the
greatest problem before the nation today
is not the distribution of wealth. but that
course, of woman suffrage, and thinks
that not only are women soon to receive
the ballot, but that in their hands Ii will
be used for the general uplift.
Many men-and many women-of many
minds. We have. beyond doubt. many
woes and they call for correction And
they are being corrected as fast as ex-
posed. Woe-hunters were never buster
than now. and never had real woe when
found less chance than now. Why blood
sned. when we have the ballot? Why
undertake 10 distribute wealth by powder
and ball, when, as we all know. those
are the most effective means for destroy
ing it? To threaten is at times almost

may all be sure, Is no advocate of blood

Vacation Dangers.

The District health officers warning
against the dangers of vacation Is timely.
There are many city men who idealize
the country. They think that good health
is to be found in every rural acre, that
the old oaken bucket, the moss-covered
bucket, is a guarantee of a pure drink.
that well or spring in the midst of
fields or woods is as sanitary as it is
poetic. and that country food IL charm
against most of the ills that flesh is heir
to. In some cases this is true; I'm many
cases II is rubbish. Sanitation and hygiene
have not made much progress I'm the
country as in the city. There Is sick
ness In the country, and il is the rugged
ness of country people, due to their phys
ical work in open air, that enables them
TO resist germs as well as they do. Beau
tiful springs clear and cool, may be foul;
deep wells giving UP crystal water may
he impure. and the oaken bucket or any
other well-bucket may he more danger
Gus than the common drinking cup. Flies
flourish in the country. There are rural
receSses to which has not penetrated the
disease distributor. and where the in
sect Is still considered pesky though an
otherwise harmless creature.
The backwoods. the mountain tops
and the seashore hold many summer
sorts where the laws of hygiene are vio-
lated and where elementary sanitation is
not practiced. Mosquitoes and flies are
not screened against and the water may
be polluted. One contemplating an outing

Georgetown has begun its cleanup
campaign. This sanitary crusade was

War is declared against the fly and
mosquito. and as the iy breeds in refuse
OF many varieties and the mosquito in

free Georgetown of breeding places of
dangerous insects will do much toward
improving the general sanitation of the

Though thoroughly companionable, he
allowed himself few pleasures. Society

Ono day. however. . caller found him

nation that Mr.. Hill was doing another
senator's work when already overbur-
dened with work OF his own. The other
senator had his family with him, and his
wife and daughters were very popular in
official society. They entertained and
went out a great deal, and Of course this
imposed heavy social obligations on the
senator himself.
The matter in hand was q lengthy re-
port which this senator had been assigned
by his committee to draw up and present
to the committee at that days session.
Only a few hours before Mr.. Hill had
received a note from his friend saying
that an entertainment at his house the
night before had made it impossible for
him to put pen to paper. and that he
had arisen so little refreshed from a
few hours Of sleep he had no capacity
for labor. Would Mr. Hill. who under

No Poles in the Avenue.

The decision of the commission of fine
arts In the matter of the middle lighting
of Pennsylvania avenue shows q proper
understanding of the results OF similar
experiments in other cities in America
and Europe and proper determination
to preserve Pennsylvania avenue clear of
Instructions and to maintain that mai
esty of breadth which makes the Avenue
one of the conspicuous thoroughfares and
noblest pageant ways in the world.
On the opinion of the commission of
fine arts the District Commissioners have
abandoned the plan recently proposed by
the District electrical engineer for light
ing Pennsylvania avenue by series OF
ornamental posts and arc lights along
the middle of the way.
The proposition was discussed by The
Star when it came up. The Star April IA
last said:
fine arts on this project will be interest
ing. Pennsylvania avenue being the
central street of the capital, one OF the
historic thoroughfares of the country and
one of the noblest avenues In the WoTiu,
1t should be the object Of especial care
on the part of the authorities and all
other persons concerned in the develop
ment of Washington. The obvious ad-
vantage OF the proposed pldH Is tIdt tic
Avenue would be more brilliantly lighted
after nightfall than 1t Is now, though II
should also be possible to light this wide
street from the sides. The obvious dis
advantage of the scheme is that it would
injure the impressveness and utility OF
the Avenue as single broad thorough
fare of apparently unbroken surface. 1t
would divide the Avenue and virtually
make of ii three streets. the car line using
the center section, with roadway for
traffic on each side. Criticism may be
expected of this radical change In the
aspect of the Avenue 1t will also be
pointed out that the availability and ef
fectiveness of the Avenue as a parade
street for great and imposing pageants
will be impaired"
In the news article on the abandon
ment of the center lighting scheme. which
appears in The Star today, the report of
the commission of fine arts, signed by it's
secretary. Col. Spencer Cosby. is quoted
as follows:
Members of the commission are per-
sonally familiar with large number OF
instances both abroad and In this coun-
try, and each of the members has in
dependently reached the opinion that in
every case of long straight avenues the
appearance of the streets has suffered
materially from the presence of the posts
in the middle of the street"
This is the impression which nearly
every body gets on looking at n wide
street whose width is broken by a line of
posts down the middle.

place where the vacation term is to be
spent. The health officer performs pub
lie duty in issuing a warning to prospec-
tive vacationists.
It is. q notorious fact that large per-
centaEe of the typhoid which comes to
trouble Washington, as well as other
cities, in the summer and fall Is con-
tracted In wildwood or seaside retreats.
In going after change, rest and pleasure
the tourist should be sure Of health con-
dftions.
Home Is not a bad place. II 1t is not
as comfortable in summer as 1t should
be. 1t can be improved. Windows may be
left open. screens may be provided, ham,
mocks may In some homes be swung on
breeze-swept porches or on cool and ver-
dant lawns. The city supplies seas OF
filtered water. It may not flow so roman
tically from a plumbers spigot as from
a moss-covered bucket or a gourd dipper.
but 1t Is safe and sane water. Washing
ton markets are full OF as good food as
can be found anywhere else in the world
It Is no secret that the best produce
OF the country finds It's market in the
city, and IL the housewife is a skillful
buyer she can get country produce that
Is fresh.
This is no argument that city people
should not go to the country. 1t Is de-
sirable that city folk should now and
then browse among pastoral scenes and
feel that calm and quiet which come to
one in the dim woods and peaceful fields.
This is only reminder that city people
should go to the country with their eyes
open to the fact that typhoid and other
infectious diseases may be contracted
there. and that country air and freedom
should not be counted altogether as an
offset to lack of sanitation.
