ELlklnS Accepted Truth.
believe firmly that death does not
end all. The first and foremost poet
Of the Bible, IL not indeed the fore
most poet of all the centuries. when
his heart was bleeding as ours are to-
day. by inspiration wrote for all the
ages and for the consolation Of the
nations, that when man dies he shall
live again. Senator Elkins often told
me he accepted this great truth, and
reverently believed 1t. Here. then, we
find balm for these bleeding wounds,
and that earth hath no sorrow that
heaven cannot heal.
When we buried Senator Dlkins at
the place OF his choosing it was, as 1
have already seid, sad day for the
state of West Virginia; but there was
never cloud so black that it did not
have a silver lining. Our friend and
brother whose remains we have COW

which was sufficiently abiding to L
lumine his soul when he reached the

Baltimore, Dec. E.-Handicapper Joseph
T. England has completed his work of
awarding the marks to the marathoners
in the first annual ten-nile open handicap
run to be held on New Years Day from
the News Office to Electric Park under the
sanction of the Cross-country Club.
Capt. Elphinstone, of the Cross-country
Club, will start from scratch and will
concede some of the athletes in the novice
division AS much as four minutes and
twenty seconds. In Mr.. England's esti-
nation, the next best man is J. Bernard
Him, OF the Fifth Regiment Athletic AS
sociation, who has been given u lead OF
one minute and forty-ive seconds on
ElphinStone. Egan Geller. Of the Cross
country Club, is also strong. for he is the
South Atlantic mile champion, and will
start five seconds before Him. John X.
Kelley. manager of the CroSs-country
Club, will also be a back marker and will
start from the two-minute line.
Johnnie Callan, recently the star in
The three-Iniie open novice rum will start
from a conspicuous mark-two minutes
and forty seconds. There appears to be
a good chance for an upset in the list of
the Washington CroSS-country Club. for
some of its representatives have received
liberal handicapS.
The entries arranged in order of haudi
ans are as follows.

The purchase OF enough additional flush
ing machines to make possible the wash
ing of all streets in Washington will
probably be made the subject Of a special
communication from James NJ. Wood, su-
perintendent OF street cleaning, to the
Commissioners within the next few days.
The efficiency of these machines in
placing streets covered with snow. ice. and
mud into a passable condition has been
well demonstrated within the last few
days, and Supt. Wood believes the street.
cleaning problem will be solved by their
use throughout the year.
Made Big Cleanup.
Working upon that section lying be-
tween Fifteenth street, Pennsylvania ave-
ue. Twentieth street. and Massachusetts
one day last week effectively cleaned
2lh0oo square yards of pavement. This
did not include the entire removal of ice
banks at corners. but did entirely re-
move the loose snow and mud which was
accumulated in places to a depth of three
and four inches.
Investigation in the use of the ma
chimes in other cities has brought tho
subject of their adoption here more
forcibly before the authorities. The
hose methods of flushing the streets.
tried here in the attempt of the past
few days to clean up the streets. has
been found by other cities to be too
expensive. Figures compiled by the
street cleaning department here show
that the hose method. with thirty-one
men at work. cleaned but 43.76s square
yards in one day, contraSted with
the $4,000 square yards OF the three
flushing machines. which took but six
men to operate.
VIII DemOnstrate Value.
While it is admitted by the street
cleaning department that weather condi-
tions in Washington are such as to pre-
ciude the use of the flushing machines
continually throughout the year, 1t is yet
held that one years trial will more than
demonstrate their value
In light of the recent criticism that has
been directed toward the street ciean-
ing officials on the condition Of the
streets, it is probable that the purchase
of the machines will be strc- - urged,
and an emergency appropri: -,
through Congress to make tt .... ,l.r
for use within the next 80. -
Eighteen machines are wa r.s.-
pletely cover the city.
