There are times when a man car

a truant officer, was able to do. And
1t was simple. He took his vacation
several weeks ago, and when he re-
turned he had grown a beautiful mus
tache. He rang the bell of his home
and was ordered away, and when he
reported for duty he was told that the

better for Harry to join the local de-

More Cars Needed,

To the Editor of the Evening Star:
If the Public Service would put more
cars into operation on the Roseville ami
other lines between the hours of 6 AMI
9 a. m. there would not be so many
people who would have to walk to work
in order to be but haitian hour late.
To my mind and many others, when
ever it is showing or raining, there are
fewer cars running than there are in
clear weather. Once again, if the Pub
lie Service would place at the service
of the public better facilities for reach
ing home after an all-day shopping tour
or at business, everybody would be sat
isfied, including myself.

ENCOURAGEMENT FROM CLEVELAND.

NAVHAT has been accomplished by the sixth city of the United
WY States, to run an industrial exposition at a profit, is pos
sible of attainment by the fourteenth city. Cleveland's
show of her resources had a paid attendance of 213,562 in the two
weeks and neted $27,234. The educational element was dominant,
and no sales were allowed. Such was the encouragement and such
the helpful suggestion given to Newark last night by Mr.. Rose,
representing the Cleveland Chamber of Commerce, at a meeting
under the auspices of the Newark Board of Trade. The advice by
Mr.. Jenkinson that the local exposition be made a Greater Newark
affair, adding the Oranges, Montclair and other neighboring com
munihes to its scope, is worth considering. Historically interest
ing was Franklin Phillipss "Reminiscences of the Newark exposition
of 1873. Everything points to the adoption of this town-boOsting
enterprise by the Board of Trade and a backing from the civic,
industrial and commercial forces of the New Jersey metropolis that
will assure monumental success and lasting benefit to our city.

A LEGISLATIVE GAME OF SOLITAIRE.

6Ta HERE is one party in Congress whose legislative program is
definite and not subject to change. 1t is also a hopeless pro-
gram, and for the same reason-the party consists of one
member. Academic interest only attaches to the list of measures
prepared by Victor Berger, of Milwaukee, the lone Socialist, for the
session that opened yesterday. Mr.. Berger virtually admits this,
but he thinks that the increase of the Socialist vote shown at the
late elections means Eventually the control of the balance of power
by his party in Congress. He would repeal the Sherman act and
nationalze all combinations controlling more than 40 per cent. of
their respective industries, and all public utilities. He advocates
amendments to the Constitution establishing woman suffrage,
abolshing the Senate and the Presidents veto and the invalidating
power of the Supreme Court; demands an inheritance tax, the cleo
tion oil. the Federal Judges by the people, Federal work for the I'M
employed and oldage pensions for industrial workers. incidentally,
his call for amendment of the extradition laws "to prevent a recur
renee of kidnapping, as in the Mcnamara case,' reads like a joke
in view of recent events. Such is the layout of the cards for Mr.
Bergers game of leg;sl" tive solitaire.

DINNER STORIES.

Assemblyman Brennan, author OF
New York's Brennan cold storage law,
said the other day:
"a recent examination of the cold
storage plants in New York city
showed that in twelve storage houses
alone there were stored 1900, 900 pounds
of poultry and meat, 4,50o,00o cheese
5000, 900 pounds of butter and 100000
cases of eggs.
This food should be labeled as what
it is. 1t shouldn't be sold to the pub
lie as fresh food at the price of fresh
food. For it isn't fresh food, and,
though it looks all right, its taste is
all wrong-except to such people as
are blessed with the palate of Jim
Unison.
'fJim Jimison," Mr.. Brennan ex-
planned, was a hard drinker up Ithacn

tavern for a dram, tossed it off, and

Commends STARS Stand.
To the Editor of the Evening Star:
I wish to commend the STAR for its
attitude on the Boost Newark cam
paign, in which are interested all men
and institutions who seek the progress
and the prosperity of the city. By its
consistent advocacy of measures that
make Newark a greater city than it is,
and by it's constructive, criticism of
tai to the best interests of the city, your
paper proves that it is deserving of
first place in Newark newspaperdom.
Especially do / wish to register my
approval of the STARS stand on the
transportation problem. and its efforts
to make Newark one of the most con-
venient of cities to reach, and one of
the most convenient of cities to get
about in.
l do not wish to imply that adverse
criticism will stop the progress of the
city, for | believe that the growth of
Newark, in size and prosperity, is in
evitable. But I do mean that progress
can be retarded for some time by reac-
tionaries of the press and platform,
and that a champion is always needed,
and that a clear view of existing condi-
tons is essential for immediate i'm
provements. and for. the things that
will make the present generation reap
the benefits of these Improvements.
The STAR is doing constructive and
loyal work. 1t has the support of every
intelligent member of the community.

OUR UNCLAIMED STREETS.

IA VEN at the -Four Corners yesterday'the snow, trampled into
IL slush, remained untouched by the street department until
the afternoon was well advanced. The public has so many
evidences of Board of Works ineptitude that it hardly looked for
any effort to clean the main lines of travel of the snow, but the
thousands who crossed at the Four Corners wondered at the neg
let there. Board of Works management left the repaving at this
congesed point unfinished day after day and thus increased the
public discomfort and danger for hours after the snow-storm yes
terday morning. Street cleaning by the Board of Works is a
standing joke in the community, and yet a very sorry one, for it
involves the public convenience and comfort and health and the
danger and loss for property. The explanation given is that the
board has no appropriation given for clearing the streets of snow.
A really efficient board run on business principles wouldn't need
a single dollar more than the present appropriation to do all the
cleaning work necessary.

lieder, by Mr.. Emil Hofmann, of this
city, and a group of songs by Miss
Ethel Houston, a member of the Saw
age Grand Opera Company. Miss
Houston, who was heard here last sum-
mer during an engagement with the
Ahorn Opera Company, possesses a
happy combination of power and sweet
ness, q sympathy with the composers
thought and a charm of expression
which always make her singing a de-
"out on the Rocks" by S~ainton;
"Coulan Dhu," Leoni; Uncle Rome -
Sidney Homer, and "Rockin' in de
Win" N%iedlinser. and, by request,
THE Suwanee River"
Mr.. Hofmann's talk centered around
the life and works of Franz Shubert,
who died at the age of "a years, after
having composed 600 songs. The young
musician raised the standard from the
brutally vulgar ballad popular at that
time to compositions of the highest
form and sentiment. Mr.. Holman
gave a sympathetic account of Shu-
bert's love for his young and beautiful
pupil, and closed his address with
references to the works of %Schumann
and Robert Franz. AS examples of the
German lieder, Mr.. Holman sang
Schubert's "Ihr Bid "Doppelgaenger"
and "Wohin;" Schumann's "Fruelings-
nacht;'' Francs "Widmung," "Es hat
die Rose SIGH Becklagt;' Richard
Strauss "Heimliche Aufforderung."
His last number, sung in English,
was For You Alone" Mr.. Hofmann's
selections were given with pleasing
dramatic effect, and We're we'll chosen

m CCORDING to London advices from Berlin Germany is con
EN sidering plans for a fleet of immense dirigible airships to
carry 300 men each, besides large cargoes of explosives. The
dream Of the aerial fleet capable of transporting large bodies of
men has haunted the German military mind for years, and chiefly
o account of England. The huzzas that greeted the first Zeppelin
airship were inspired by the thought that the naval defense of the
British Isles was about to be destroyed. But even if the dream
shall be realized the formidable foe of the German military dirigible
is already born. a single aviator shooting through the air in an
aeroplane may with one missile destroy an airship and its entire
fighting force. And he could do it more readily than a torpedo boat
can sink d dreadnOught.
