Protest has arisen as the result
of the action of the Washington
Playground Association in recon-
mending the appointment of Edgar
S. Martin, of Columbus, Ohio, as
director of Fairgrounds in this city.
The advisability of bringing an
outside official to Washington to
fill this position is questioned in
many quarters, particularly as there
is an abundance of local men, it is
claimed, who are competent to as
sumo the place.
WRONG STEP CLAIMED.
Friends of various Washington men
are asserting their claims strongly, and
the conditions under which Mr.. Martin
win be brought to the city has intensi-
ned the feeling that a wrong step has
been made. Before the place is oficially
rendered to Mr.. Martin, the appointment
must be ratified by the District Com
missioners, and vigorous opposition to
this is now being organized.
Among the local candidates for the
place was Rev. Zed H. Copp, whose
friends were especially active in his be-
half. The argument that Washington
man should be selected was pressed
vigorously, not merely on the ground Of
local pride, but also because local candi-
dates possessed every qualification nee
essary for a successful director Of play
grounds, It is said.
Since the recommendation was made
by the Playground Association on Friday,
the conditions surrounding Mr.. Martins
proposed appointment have come to Iight
and caused increased criticism. He win
not be content with the salary Of 1850
year which goes with the berth. but
is to be paid just double this amount,
since Columbus. Ohio. has offered that
sum to keep him there.
Since the appropriation In the District
budget for director Of Fairgrounds is only
$1,500, the extra amount must be raised
in some other fashion. Among the meth
DDS under consideration is to raise the
necessary 1850 by private subscription
among members Of the Playground Asso-
citation and from Other philanthropic
sources. Since the salary Of the director
runs for only ten months. 1t is also pro-
posed to give Mr.. Martin pay in the other
two months for promoting the Boy
Scouts movement here.
Created Opposition.
When these plans become known yes
terday. they created strong opposition
in certain quarters. It is felt that 5000
is too high salary to be paid for the
position, and also that 1t will cut of
men from two other jobs
connected with the Boy Scout move
ment. which will be abolished in
order to make up the missing $500 Of
Mr.. Martins proposed salary.
OF the local candidates, Rev Zed H.
Copp has the strongest Endorsement
He is now the District probation ON
GER of the Juvenile Court. It is point
ed out that any OF the local candidates
will accept the position at Its present
salary. To go out OF the city for man
and to double his salary is termed an
Injustice in many quarters.
James E. West, former director OF
made q trip to Columbus
n order to inspect Mr.. Martins work
md record there. He was so highly
pleased with what he saw and heard |
hat he strongly urged HIS appointment |
before the Playground Association. It |
vas on the strength OF his recommen-
iation that the association took the ac-
ion 1t did.

COUNTING HEADS.
The First Census Was Taken by Moses
In the Wilderness.

There Is record of census In
China as far back as the year 2042
b. C. and Of one In Japan In the last
century before Christ. Under the con-
stitution of Scion the citizens Of Ath.
ems were divided and registered in four
classes. according to the amount Of
their taxable property or income. The
Roman census was burdened with
more statistics than any of these, how.
ever. 1t had its origin under Servius
Tullius. sixth king Of Rome. and was
an AFFAIR Of much solemnity. Every
citizen had to appear upon the Campus
Martius and declare upon oath his
name and dwelling and the value Of
his property under the penalty Of hav.
ing his goods confiscated.
The most ancient statistical record
of census Is found in the Bible. The
census was taken by Moses in the
wilderness. and, as shown by the first
chapter Of Numbers. the enumeration
must have been very simple. Take
ye," says this account. 1.-The sum of all
the congregations of the children Of
Israel, after their families. by the
house of theE fathers. with the num-
Der Of their names, every male by
their polls; from twenty years old and
upward. all that are able to go forth
to war in Israel; thou and Aaron shall
number them by their armies" This
census was an affair that must have
been soon over, lasting no longer than
one day, being merely counting Of
the heads of the fighting men. The
women and children and cripples and
the old men were not included; mel.
Their were the Levites numbered among
them" Those who did stand up to
be numbered totaled G03,550. - New

A successful exhibit is the result Of
studied design and careful collecting.

detective hastily. q" suppose your

1T Is more than SCIENCE" answered
Martin. 1T is art, philosophy, philan-

needs Is beauty in greater measure
and higher degree to attain perfection

a process of patient questioning GOV
ering SO long a time that it ended ir
the twilight, that Britz led the tireless
worker back to days before his arrival
in the asylum. The protracted inquiry
taxed all the detectives skill in word
handling.
Fitch, scientist though he was, long
conversant with the phenomena Of the
mind as he had been, marveled at the
Headquarters mans adroitness. Long
before Britt had finished his task, the
doctor, in sheer WEAKNESS dropped
into a chair and stayed there in silent
attention. But the detective remain

carnation of will itself, and slowly.
cautiously, persistently piloted that
darkened intelligence out Of it's depths
back to at least a cleaning of coher
ent memory. SO guided, so aided and
lifted along the difficult backward
path, Martins mind reverted to in
stances that hung like stalact1tes from
the cavern ceiling Of restrospecton.
1t was in a flash Of intelligence, brief.
ly eliminated as a twinkle of daylight
seen from the recesses of a cave, that
the old man recalled the great triumph
Of his strange craft.

said in response to a query from the
detective, swift and searching as a
rapier thrust, beautiful enough to
hang about the neck of a princess;
brilliant enough to glorify the hut OF
a toiler in the fields; but there was
one-ah!" His recollection reveled In
widening circles until its force was
spent. For a long time, his hands
m%otionless again, he sat gazing into
the past. Britt, feeling hat he was
on the edge of an important disclos-
ure, waited patiently. Fitch scarcely
breathed.

flush deepened on his parchment
face, II fashioned 1t for gain!"
Without an 1nstant's warning he
