Campaign Against ROwdies.

To the Editor of the Evening Star:
At last the police have gotten busy
and are making some arrangements to
suppress street car rowdies, who have
their own way SO long that they
think they can insult women and chill
dren, turn the trolley cars into gym
nasiums and do whatever else they
please to the rights of other passen-
gers. federation of their "doings' had
the usual effect. Not only the evil
doors themselves, but also many other
people came to hold the police In II
tempt. Now, after promising to act
in accordance with public sentiment,
the authorities wish that they had en-
forced the law from the beginning.
The rowdies are still in evidence. but
they are beginning to fear the con-
sequences and rowdyism will soon be
a thing of the past in trolley cars, any
way. PASSENGbRr

MUSEUM ACQUIRES RARE
MUSICAL INSTRUMENTS.
Lutte of Musician of India One

esting musical Instruments have re-
Gently been added to the Crosby-Brown

scum, and can now be seen In the re-
cent accessions room on the main

sionary, from. whose possession 1t
came into that of Mrs. Crosby-Brown.
The decoration shows the pearl inlay
so familiar in East Indian work, and
the lute-maker Used beside the usual
material other that came to hand.
Small four-hole pearl buttons such as
do practical service on white wearing
apparel. have been set in with deco
rative effect.
Valuable among the other accessions
is a viola d'amore. formerly used in
orchestras, but which fell into disuse
In the eighteenth century.

LOCAL WAR NEWS OF
FIFTY YEARS AGO.

The Newark Daily Advertiser, now
the STAR. on August 8, 1851, published
the following:
The members of the Fourth Reg1-
ment, as we'll as those Of the First, are
dissatisfied with the amount Of their
pay. The Fourth was mustered into
service April rs, and when paid in
Washington received pay for one month
and six days. Their last two months
expired July 81 and they received their
discharge August 6. They claim pay
to the latter date.
All of the discharges we're dated July
81. save those of the Washington Grays,
whose officers dated the day of their
issue and of payment. The men also
claim pay for ten days rations which
they had not received from the time
of their return.

HEAVY BLACK-HAND TOLL
IN CHICAGO DURING 1911.

CHICAGO, Aug. ga summary of
the crimes committed by members of
the so-called Black Hand in this city
the year 1911, just made public,
gives a total of eighteen murders,
scores of Standings and more than 100
bomb explosions, $500, 900 collected in
blackmail and the ~terrorizing of thou
sands by threats. With only one or
two exceptions, none of the perpe-
traitors of these numerous crimes has
beer convicted.
Following one of the worst periods of
Black Hand outbreaks, an organization
of law-abiding Italians known as the
White Hand was formed, the members
thinking their familiarity with italian
conditions would aid the police in COM
batting the assassins. This organization
proved of little assistance.

Another Boy Scout Defender.
To the Editor of the Evening Star:
The letter signed Third Street"
which appeared in your column sew
eral days ago, and that of j.. B.. s., in
Fridays issue. have come to my at
tention and as l am vitality interested
In those very same Boy Scouts can
not let these remarks pass unnotieed.
]. B. s. struck the keynote in sug-
costing that 1t would have been more
commendable had the critic made an
effort to call the captains attention
to the grievance, which l have no doubt
was az imaginary one.
A few boys with one bugle and three
drums would not disturb the peace OF
mind of any normal Individual by MAX
ing a little noise at 1880 p. M, par
ticularly if they damaged no property,
which is against the scout law" ana
which offense would be punishable in
several ways.
Unfortunately the Roseville section
seems to harbor some people who ap-
parently dislike seeing young people
enjoy themselves and are always ready
to complain. SCOUT MASTER.

THE WORLDS GREAT MoNEY-GETTER.

his hi" 7 HILE the figures of the wealth of John D. Rockefeller and
daughy Andrew Carnegie are approximately known, little can be
p~h learned about the possessions of j. Pierpont Morgan, who
Mraid to be in actual control of many billions of capital of his own
stro1 other people. Mr.. Morgan is a lavish spender. His purchases
causart objects amount to millions and he keeps up princely estab-
1f3ihments in New York, London and Paris. He has also been a
mevish giver, as a man of colossal wealth may we'll be- Mr.. Morgan
as born with genius and also under a lucky star. Opportunities
Aame to him that were never vouchsafed to men before, and he has
the genius to recognize them and seize them. And there are great
windfals, too. Here is one reported at Colorado in the discovery
on land owned by Mr.. Morgan of an immense coal vein worth
millions to the landowner. But one opportunity incomparably
greater than any other was that of acquiring the cream of the
wealth Of Alaska. If the Cunningham claims had been validated
Mr.. Morgan would have come into possession of a wealth to stagger
the imagination, for with that foothold and with Controller bay in
his grasp he would have practically owned Alaska.

To the Editor of the Evening Star:
Why have the newspapers made so
much of the fact that John Jacob AS
tor is going to marry an ~1s-year-old
girl? Not alone because of his wealth
or his recent divorce, but because of
the youth of the brlde-to-be. People
are not surprised, but shocked at the
announcement. The emotion that fills
the mind is not wonder merely, but
something akin to disgust. A mar in
his autumn of life, cast aside by his
first wife after an accusation by her
that he did not attempt to defend. is
about to be wed to a bright, effulgent.
c~lean-spirited girl at the beginning of
her springtime.
We see something NAL apropos in
this arrangement. 1t is as If the
kindly. smiling days Of May were
lifted out of their proper place and
put where gray December ought to be;
sunshine, laughter, blossoms, innocence
united to decay.

William H. Corbin, of Jersey City, Is
n of the best-known lawyers of the
State and handles only big cases with
correspondingly big fees attached.
The other day he was at a clerks desk
in the surrogate's office looking up
points in a most important will, when
a lawyers clerk approached him, laid
some papers on the desk in front of the
eminent counsel and said somewhat
peremptorily:
Il want this will p~robated."
The big and busy lawyer looked at
the clerk, smiled. jerked a finger
towards another desk and sighed as
he softly said to himself:
And | have been at the bar for more
thar t~hirty-five years! Well, well, such

James McMaster, a leading figure in
the Order of Scottish Clans in New
Jersey, has a repertoire of good stories,
but usually finds that this n captures
lodge meetings better than any of the
others:
Little Willie had one eye. One after
noon he stayed home from school to
avoid an examination. His mother sent
him down town to get a loaf of bread
and on his way bach. he dropped in at
school. When the teacher saw Willie
she held up one finger; Willie held up
Willie held up his shut fist; the teacher
held up an apple and Willie the loaf
of bread. The teacher then called him
to the desk and passed him S., the
first prize for the best showing in the
examination. The examiners wanted to
know why he got the prize.
81 held up one finger to Willie" said
the teacher, ito indicate one Supreme
Being; Willie held up two fingers to
signify the start of the human race,
Adam and Eve; l then lifted up three
fingers for Faith, Hope and Charity;
Willie elevated his closed hand to SYM
bolize the strength of unity; l held
up the apple for infinity, and Willie
elevated the loaf of bread as the staff
of life"
But Willie explained the incident to
his inquisitive mother this way:
when teacher saw me she held up
one finger, which said hat 1 had only
one eye; l held up two fingers, which
meant that | could see as much with
my one eye as she could with two; she
held up three fingers, which meant that
we had only three eyes between us;
that made me mad and 1 shook my fist
at her; she TOOK an apple from the
desk to throw at me, hen l picked up
the loaf of bread to biff her With it.
She got scared, called me to the desk,
and passed me the S."

A TRAVELLING ADMINISTRATION.

c HE present administration is a travelling one. President Taft
sets the example. He has been oftener and longer on the
wing than any of his predecessors and only the special SEES
sion of Congress has kept him for any length of time at Washing
ton since the regular session adjourned. The members of his
cabinet are frequently absent from the capital. In September Mr..
Taft will begin a series of journeys having campaign objects in
view. He will go on a four weeks trip in the West to fill certain
engagements. Thereafter Washington will see comparatively little
of him unless affairs in Congress shall compel his presence. 1t IS
needless to say how much of the Presidents time will be taken up
in travelling and speechmaking after the presidential campaign
begins.

First owners of Furs.

Women who expect to buy furs this
winter show lively interest In the
Zoo animals" said Philadelphia anil
NAL keeper "They want to find out
what the animal looked like that were
their fur coats and muffs before the
furs we're made over for them.
THE recent warnings against imita-
tion furs have made them particular
ly curious. Somehow they imagine
that by comparing the fur of live
lynx with cat or a rabbit they will
be able to detect the difference In dyed
furs. OF course they won't, but any
how this little excursion into natural
history, will do them no harm.
Women with caracul coats are the
most persistent Investigators. Very
few people except furriers know what
kind of an animal caracul grows on.
and the specimens of the Russian
sheep that produce real caracul and
the Chinese sheep that cheap wool
that is sold for caracul grows on have
been trotted out for inspection SO often
that they have become as blase as a
New York show girl''
