INSANE HOSPITAL PATIENTS
IN'DANGER FROM FIRE
Congress Will Be Asked to Install Better System
of Protection for UnfOrtunateS

A recommendation that District of
Columbia fire station be. stationed per-
manently in the grounds of the Govern
ment Hospital for the Insane. is to be-
made by the Cantrill subcommittee on
fire protection of the House Committee
on Public Buildings and Grounds.
The members Of the subcommittee, ac-
companied by Representative Sheppard.
chairman Of the Public Buildings Com
mittee, visited st. Elizabeth yesterday
afternoon for the purpose Of examining
into its facilities for fire prevention ana
control. They returned to the Capitol
imbued with the idea that some better
provision should be made at once for the
prevention OF disastrous iconflagrations
and panics in the little city of 5000 souls
cn the hill beyond Anacostia- The SUBJ
committee discovered only a small hand
fire engine, q few hand hose carts, and
a volunteer fire department composed
mainly Of the attendants on the insane.
1t was learned that the nearest fire sta
tion to the hospital was located in Ana
costa at the foot Of the hill and that
the authorities relied mainly on the ap-
paratus there stationed to check a large

DECLARES DEED INVALID.
Property Transferred in Connection
with Sidewalk Law.

Because a property owner in 1903 did
not clean the snow from the sidewalk in
front of his lot, the Commissioners as

which was finally sold for s19i
Sam F. Entrikin yesterday entered
suit against L. Rec Routt in this connec-
ton and asked the court TO declare the
deed Of sale invalid and void and cancel
the same and perpetually enjoin Routt
Nfrom claiming title to the property.
Entrikin says in his declaration he does
not know the residence of Routt, and
that in May, 1902. he. Entrikin. was and
IS now the owner of lot l6 in square S37
in the District, approximately valued at
$500. The plaintiff alleges that in June,
1892 the District assessed and made the
charge against the lot, alleging the owner
had failed to clean the sidewalk in front
OF the lot
The plaintiff alleges there was no law
in force in the District at the time au
thoriZing an assessment, or the making
of the deeds by the Commissioners to the
defendant. Entrikin also claims that the
act of Congress of March 2. 1897, under
which the assessment was made, was de-
clared unconstitutional by the Court of
Appeals.

Consti pated All His Life
Now Cured d---TriaI Free

One Of the most harassing Of trou-
bles, though fortunately not fatal. is
constipation, and millions of people suf-
fer with 1T from infancy to old age. Its
cause may be traced to any one OF a
dozen different circumstances Of diet,
environment. and even birth.
Millions are practically born with
constipation Had they used intelligent
methods at the beginning perhaps they
would have found relief, but they had
the usual misfortune of bad advice.
They tried dieting, stewed fruits, then
laxative waters, then pills and various
other cathartics. and SO in the end
made matters worse. But there is still
hope, even for the seemingly hopeless.
Have you ever tried DR.. CaldwelPs
Syrup Pepsin? It has been on the mar
ket for many years and is as staple IN
the households of those who know its
value as salt and sugar., 1t IS liquid
laxative-tonic that you can buy OF any
druggist at fifty cents or one dollar q

, fire should 1t break out IN any Of the
buildings.
There are upward OF sixty structures
within the inclosure Of the Hospital for
the Insane, but only fifteen are new
and ffreproof. The subcommittee could
see no better way to properly guard this
property from fire than to station one
Of the city companies within the In
closure. Such recommendation will be
contained in the forthcoming report to
the full committee.
The Cantrill committee made test OF
the patent fire alarm system established
at St. Elizabeth a few years ago at a
cost of $4,000. Owing to disagreement.
between the controllers Of the patent
and the Interior Department, the system
has not been operated beyond the first
year Of its installation. The Cantrili
committee yesterday greeted commit
tee from the Interior Department en-
gagged in an investigation of the same
subject. 1t is likely that as result of
the investigations the government Will
resume the use Of the alarm system anu
pay the annual rental fee Of several
thousand dollars to the inventors.

various branches Of the Interior Depart
ment to-day.

MANY BIRTHS ARE NOT
RECORDED, CLAIMS CLERK.
Action Will Be Taken Against
MidwiveS and Others.

The city clerks office intends to take
action against m.dwives and others who
fail to report to the vital statistics de-
partments a record of births. While
the records of births show an increase,
1t is evident from the figures that many
have not been reported, and numerous
specific instances showing this to be
true has come to the att lntion of the
vital statistic1 bureau.
Health officer David r. Chandler re-
ccltly had some of the delinquents In
this report before him and made them
acquainted with the law on the point
and let them thoroughly understand
any neglect on their part to make
a report to the city would be a cause
( r action against iEem.
The city authorities dealing with this
matter have also learned hat certain
midwives are practising without a
license. Action is to be taken to pre-
vent this. Examinations are held at
Trenton twice a year to those who seek
to practise as midwives.
Since the marriage license bureau was
established there is. of course, a perfect
record of marriages, and all deaths
have to be reported before a burial cer-
tihcate is issued.

more than temporarily indisposed in
the forty-four years of his life, felt ill
enough to summon a physician. His
complaint was diagnosed as acute in
digestion, with a touch of heart failure.
Mr.. Balzer did not feel i'll enough to
interrupt his daily routine. and In the
afternoon he was so much better that
he was treating his invalidlsm lightly.
His death was entirely unexpected.
For many years Mr.. Balzer had been
a well-known figure in the "Hill' Sec
ton. He was born in Newark, and had
lived here all his life. For the past
three years he had been engaged in the
real estate business, and for years
previous to that time had conducted a

MUST MAKE DEPOSITS
AT TAX SALE OF LAND.
New Rule TO Be Imposed at Auc-
ton Tomorrow.

Bidders for properly sold for arrears
of taxes at the eomptroller's office to-
morrow morning will probab bly, be asked
to make a deposit to guarantee their
bids, a condition which has not been
imposed in past years.
The amount of property % be sold
this year is smaller than in any of the
years of the recent past. The sum
that has been received for arrears
within the last few weeks is much
larger than usual. This year the comp.
troller's department adopted a new
system in tracing up the delinquents.
Messengers We're sent to the address
of the property to be advertised for
sale, and in case 1t happened to be a
vacant lot the owner was located
through a real estate agent or other
wise and the notice of his delinquency
reached him in due time. To this
method Is partly due the large finan-
oial returns
As usual no property will be sold for
less than the city's lien against it with
interest and costs. All owners may
redeem their property by May "a of
next year by paying the amount of the
lien with interest at 10 per cent, the
cost of the sale M the search. No
purchaser is entitled to interest or
costs until after he has obtained his
certificate of sale, and he cannot get
the certificate until he has paid the
purchase price, which must be in by
Tune l.
The exacting of a deposit from bid
ders is to protect the city from specu-
lators who might bid on various par
GELS, keep what they deemed best and
leave the rest on the hands of the
municipality, also to guard against ir-
responsible bids.
