these causes is noticeable as the years
advance, we may, hope that in course
of time medical SCIENCE will conquer
the ills to which we are most prone (;
but if, on the other hand, there is an
increase in the number of deaths from
these diseases, the subject becomes one
which demands the most serious con-
sideration.
The complex conditions under which
We live undoubtedly add to the prob
lem of existence, but certainly civiliza-
ton ought to keep pace in its remedial
and preventive measures with the dan
gers which threaten. The trouble is,
of course, that we accept fatal illness
as a visitation from Providence and
fail to bestow upon preventable diseases
the attention which the conditions fully
warrant. A few lessons in the gospel
of health would be of practical benefit
to the community.

Disasters and Disease.

The Journal of the American Medi-
cal Association takes occasion to note
that while great disasters excite the
country, the alarming number of deaths
from preventable diseases fails to at
tract attention. How strange" it SAYS,
that our syulpathies should be aroused
TO immediate and purposeful action BY
the loss of forty lives in a sudden and
unusual way, when we are callous and
indifferent TO the fate of thousands who
die from preventable but familiar
causes"
The number of these deaths in the
United States is placed at 100000. In
Pennsylvania, the State in which the
Austin dam disaster occurred, no less
than 22ooo persons died in 1908 from
typhoid, diphtheria, tuberculosis. and
infantile diarrhea; and yet, according to
the Journal, each one of these is a pre-
yentable disease This being true, it
would seem as il our boasted civiliEa-
ton had yet much to accomplish in the
way of proper care for human life. If

Preserving the Parks.

An emphatic protest has been raised
in New York against the proposition
to use part of Riverside Park as a site
for an armory for the naval militia.
At the head OF the opposition is Jacob
A. Riis and DR. Luther H. Gulick, the
former president of the National Play
ground Association. They propose to
prevent, if possible, any encroachment
upon the parks by the erection of per-
manent buildings.
The danger which now menaces New
York is not entirely unknown here.
More than once Congress has author
lied the use OF some portion OF a pub
lie reservation d, 4 site for a public
building. and unless careful attention is
given to the matter in the future the
precedent will be followed
1t is 10 be hoped that any movement
which may be made in Congress to-
ward curtailinG the amount of park
ing will be vigorously opposed. There
is no reason why sites for public build
ings should not be obtained outside of
the parks, which are none too numer-
Gus and which ought to be preserved
from cncroachment.

The Greatest Campaign Treasurer.

The late Cornelius N. Bliss was four
times treasurer of the Republican Ma
tional Committee in Presidential cleo
tons, and in those four campaigns
handled no less than $3o.ooo,ooo. Most
likely it was good deal more. as there
was no legal check upon either State
or national campaign expenditures, spe-
cial interests contributing whatever
they pleased.
And yet Cornelius Bliss lived long
enough to see all this overthrown by
the passing of publicity acts He saw
both national committees during the
last Presidential campaign publish vol
unfairly their accounts, after Congress,
the year before, had forbidden. corpo-
rations to contribute TO any election
fund No treasurer of national CAM
paign will ever handle again such great
secret funds as came to party treasures
during the time of Cornelius n. Bliss.

REAL TREASURE
HOUSE, THE MIND
Wabash College President at
Y. N. C.. A. Meeting.

You can't take your millions to heaven
with you, and the only way you can
store up treasures in heaven is by stor-
ing your mind with the higher and better
things Of the life you live" said DIR.
George L. Macintosh, president of
Wabash College. of Indiana. yesterday
| afternoon. DR.. Mackintosh spoke before
the mems meeting and luncheon at the
Y. NJ. c. A. His subject was The warp
and woof Of life
After all. death seems but a tragic
way Of closing this life. unless one has
gotten the best that is in 1t in. such q
way as TO leave one no regrets" said DR..
Macintosh. What good does il do II
man works his life away acquiring real
property. money, or even a reputation.
He cannot take his money: he cannot
take his real property; he cannot take
his fame and reputation to heaven with
him. No matter what his state at death,
tered this life
Il am not here to tell you how to han
die the experiences Of your life: how to
make the most Of them. Every man
must have his experiences: you have had
yours, you will have others; and every
man handles his own the best way his
lights point out"
There was decidedly personal touch
given when the Wabash president said:
Some OF you, like mystelf. will, 1 sup
pose, go through your lives without ac-
quiring money, without having an auto
mobile. without knowing affiuence; with
out attaining a great name or much
fame. Others OF you may carve for
yourselves such lives as will include some
or all OF these. But for the first-the alb
sence Of those things that come with
wealth or easy circumstances need not
mean a life wasted. There is no treasure
house in heaven for the accommodation
Of automobiles. The place where moth
or rust 90 not corrupt and where thieves
do not break through and steal is your
mind.
In going through life separate the
gross from the beautiful. the good from
the bad, the repellant from the attrac-
tive, store the one in the treasure house
Of your mind. discard the other as an
experience that goes with life, and you
will have gained those things, the lasting
effect OF which you can carry to heaven
with you"

ANACOSTIA.

The men Of No. 10 Engine Company in
Anacostia were called out late Saturday
afternoon for a fire at I225 Fourteenth
street, occupied by August Stewart The
alarm was given in person by Mrs. Stew
art, who lives near the engine house, on
account of flames from a gasoline stove
in the kitchen.
The death Of Mrs. Leila Watson, wife
of George o. Watson, of the Metropolitan
National Bank, occurred at her residence,
166 Maple View avenue, ABOUT $50 O'Clock
Saturday evening, after an illness last
ing several months. Funeral arrange
ments are to be announced later. Mrs.
Watson was formerly Miss Leila Hern-
don, OF Fredericksburg, Va, and since
her residence in Anacostia was actively
engaged in the work Of the Anscostia
Methodist Episcopal Church. At her
death she was honorary president of the
Ladies' Aid Society. Her husband and
two children, Miss VeryI Watson, a stu
dent at the Petersburg Seminary, Vir-
ginia, and Charles Watson, survive.
A south-bound car Of the Congress
Heights line evidently endeavored to see
how many times 1t could strike late Sat
Gay night, when John McConkey, Walter

driving teams, were hit by the car and
thrown to the street. None OF them re-
ceiyed serious injury. DR.. Parker. OF

and scores Of visitors from other parishes
the new All Souls Chapel, at Connecti-
cut and Cathedral avenues. was formally
dedicated by Bishop Alfred Harding yes
terday afternoon at o'clock with special
ceremonies
The bishop referred to the history of
the new house Of worship and the prog
ress made by a handful Of loyal Episco-
palians who raised suficIent funds to
erect the handsome chapel, which has a
seating capacity Of 200. He predicted the
establishment of a large and powerful
church as the outcome Of the movement
The chapel will not be finished fo-
about three weeks. as It lacks interior
painting and decorations. The pews have

pointed to build up the parish by Bishop

How the RObber Barons of To-day

hNS IN buAhT!'
From the New York Sun.
After all, and as things are managed
nowadays, why not the hotel and res
taurant tip? Every detail is adjusted
to 1t, the very atmosphere prepares you,
the inevitable logic of the situation leads
up to II. One resorts TO these gaudy,
hectic places with his eyes open, he sub
mits TO an encourage of luxury, some
what forced dnd artificial to be sure;
he revels in the music, the flashing
diamonds. the reckless, spendthrift en-
vironment, the flowers, the plate, the cut
glass, and the mirrors. He may not get
wholesome food. The mousses, the vol
au vents. the surprises, and the entries
generally are perhaps as ashes in the
stomach and a weariness next morning
But all this has been known to every
one of us a long time. Are we WEIGH

The days of the inn and the eating
house are over for those OF us who lay

well-cooked fare; the unostentatious
surroundings. and the unpretendlng wait
ers who receive quarters and half dol
lars with grateful genufiection. Between
the lunch counter and the palace OF
SNOWY and mysterious inedibles we no
longer recognize a practicable middle
ground. We put on our war paint and
go forth to the glittering caves where
swart. predatory chieftsins half dis
guised as servitors prevail. We surfelt
ourselves with the kind OF luxury those
places hand out TO their victims, leaving
tomorrow to take care OF itself, and
then We childIshly rebel because the pi-
rates OF the table and the hat rack take
their paltry toll, Yet 1t is all part OF
the game, and we ourselves are re-

WASHINGToN'S TAXES.
why the Government Has the Bet
ter OF the Present Bargain.

ter OF the Present Bargain.
From the Norfolk Landmark
The folks at the Capital are much per-
turbed over a proposition that the gov
ernment pay a certain sum in lieu of
taxation to the treasury Of the District
Of Columbia instead of defraying half the
expenses of the territory as is the Gus
tom. Most people who have given the
matter serious thought have apparently
been convinced that the government has
the better of the present bargain.
The United States owns practically half
of Washington. and from the standpoint
Of an assessor they own more than 30
per cent. A great deal of the admins
trative expense Of the city is caused by
the government. The choicest sections
are under Federal control and the very
center of the town is Federal territory.
At present Washington is not particu-
larly blessed from a taxpayers view
point: and, IL the proposed plan is put
into effect. the situation will be more
difficult The government doubtless will
continue to take choice sections as II
may desire and remove them from the
taxable assets Of the city, and each pur-
chase of that sort will make the admin
istrstive task harder. The project is not
one that appeals to a sense of fairness.

OBJECTS TO MOB LAW"
Senator Bourne Denies the Words
Apply to Recall System.

Apply to Recall System.
Both reason and experience are ig-
nored by Cardinal Gibbons and Arch
bishop ireland when they use the words
mob law in describing the initiative,
referendum. and recall" said Senator
Jonathan Bourne, jr., president of the
National Progressive Republican League,
in a statement issued yesterday.
''Mobs act under the sudden impulse
Of anger, fear, or hatred, and without
time for thought or careful considera-
tion. Mob action is absolutely impos-
sible under the initiative or referendum,
because there is not less than four
months Of discussion before a vote can
be taken. 1t is also impossible under
the recall because the recall cannot be
invoked until petitions have been circu-
lated and signed by at least . per cent
Of the voters. 1t takes weeks to secure
this number OF signatures and the wild
est possible publicity. Then the recall
election cannot be held within less than
twenty days after filing the petition.
Voting under such circumstances can
not be mob action.
Analysis Of the forces controlling all
human action proves, and nine years ex-
perience in Oregon demonstrates, that
the initiative, referendum, and recall are
not injurious to any personal right or
legitimate property interest. Our politi-
cal campaigns were never before so free
from fraud. our government was never
before so free from graft, Industrial de-
velopment was never more rapid, large
capitalists were never mofe willing to in
vest in Oregon property"

SOUTH PROSPEROUS,
SAYS G. G. DAW E
Dixie Boomer Visits Thirty
two Large Cities.

G. Grosvenor Dave. managing director
Of the Southern Commercial Congress,
returned to Washington yesterday after
a trip OF nearly two months in thirty
two large cities OF the South. Mr.. DawG
left Washington on September l. The
most important work he accomplished
on his tour was to secure for the Capital
the next convention OF the American
Association of Commercial Executives,
which meets here next October.
In the thirty-two cities I visited 1
was impressed with the spirit Of COM
merciaI enterprise and organized efforts
toward municipal improvement" said
Mr.. Dave last night. He added that the
South Is in a most prosperous condition,
due to organized bodies which worked
for all sorts OF improvements.
In most of the cities Mr.. Dave said
he was struck with their municipal
housecleaning," meaning the various
places were paying more attention to the
proper lighting and paving Of streets.

Hitchcock's Parcel Post Budget.

The budget of the Post-office Depart
nent for the forthcoming fiscal year
contains estimates of three items each
of which is intended to lead ultimately
to the establishment of a parcel post
In al, $I5oooo is asked for institut-
ing preliminary work, $4,000 each
for cities, rfor rural districts, and for
the carriers. When it is taken into
consideration that the post-office esti-
mates for the next fiscal year aggregate
$25ooooooo, the small sum of $4,000
to be used in the Inauguration of an
entirely new branch of the service does
not seem large.
The Postmaster General explains this
by saying that it will not be necessary
to draw largely upon government funds
for the new enterprise, as in his opin-
ion it will not only maintain itself from
the start, but will provide a surplus.
This seems reasonable, as the post
Office establishment is of such vaStness
that it is easily able to do more bust
ness than is at present required in its
daily routine work OF course, if the
establishment of a parcel post necessi-
tated the institution of new equipment
the cost would be stupendous.
There can be no question as to the
determined insistence OF the people for
parcel post This must be recog-
nized. despite all counter movements
and arguments. The government ulti-
mately will have to adopt a system SIM
liar to that successfully in operation
abroad for years. 1t looks as though
the present administration is preparing
to meet the public demand.
