When love sees very clearly it is nearly at
an end.
Women would soon lose their power over men
if they could acquire the faculty Of being sincere
All women, even the most urtuous, feel pleas
ure in an atmosphere of danger.
Love fears doubt, and yet it grows by doubt
and often perishes from certainty. y
The sight Of misfortune is antpathetic to hap
piness Friendship can hardly last between
fortunate man and an unfortunate one.
Intuition is often superior to reason. It en-
ables women who reason very badly to under.
stand things not understood by men who reason
very well
Woman, being better fitted to feel than to
reason you do not improve her condition by
teaching her to think.
To keep love that is dying Is like trying to
stop the nignt OF tiine.
There are only. two doors in every womans
life. One is labelled Remembrance and the other
Forgetfulness. Everything she has or loses
comes or goes through one or the other. ~
Moderate passions are the most durable. II
we begin by loving one another too much, we
soon arrive at point where we cannot endure
one another.
The strength Of sentiment is that It takes no
account of reason.
Like all the phenomena Of life. the sentiments
are in state Of unstable equilibrium, always in
process Of transformation.
Sentiments fight one another with sentiments
and never with reasons.
In love illusion soon creates certainty.
The truly wise man may master all the i'm
pulses Of his heart, but to be wise is not to be
happy.
Illusion exaggerates always the value of what
one desires. That is why happiness consists
rather in pursuing an object than attaining II.

CALL Him CLEVER
LEAD PIPE" THIEF
Police Nab Colored Man Who They
Say Is an Adept and Confessed
to Eighteen Thefts.

That he has looted more than a score
Of houses in northeast Washington and
caused upward Of 1900 damages is the
charge on which the police Of the Ninth
precinct are holding George Wayne, alias
Pete Wynn. colored, twenty-seyen years
old. Wayne was arrested yesterday by
Policeman Benjamin Steele and Sergeant
Davis, OF the Ninth precinct He stole
lead pipe, which he sold for small sums
to funk dealers, II Is alleged.
The man was sleeping in the loft OF. a
stable IN the rear OF the Southern Railroad
freight ONCE. He had adjusted the
elevator in such a manner that he could
drop 10 the ground floor and escape In
case he heard any one coming up the
stairway. The elevator was held in
readiness for the sleeper at the second
floor so that any one coming TO that door
would have 10 ascend the stairway.
Davis and Steele learned that Wayne
was in the stable, and made their way
to the loft 50 stealthily that the sleeping
man was not apprised Of their coming.
Wayne Is declared By the police to be
one OF the cleVerests' lead pipe thieves
with whom they have had to deal in
years. His method Is to enter a vacant
house by the rear door. lock himself in
until he has torn out all the lead piping
and other metal he desires: then he
leaves by the front door, taking care
always to leave the might latch" on, so
that he escapes with his loot from a
completely locked house. Consequently,
II is some time before the robbery Is
discovered. The police declare the pris-
oner has confessed to eighteen Jobs.

"STAR SPANGLED
BANNER" WILL DO
Scheme to Foist New National
Anthem on the Public Frowned
Upon by Patriotic Women.

The plan proposed by DR.. ]. B. Nc
Fatrich, president OF the Chicago board
OF education. for the creation OF a new
national anthem strikes no answering
spark in Washington. The women OF
this city connected with patriotic clubs
and associations are unanimous in their
opposition to any plan which seeks to
displace the Star SpangIed Banner
from the place It holds in every American
heart
DR.. McFatrich's plan is to have every
school child in America contribute one
penny toward a fund to be given to the
author of the anthem selected by a board
out OF those submitted He believes that
several hundred thousand dollars could
be obtained in this way. The anthem
selected by the board would be submitted
TO Congress with the intention of having
II created the national anthem.
Each community would hold its own
contest, and the competition would also
be national in scope, according to the
plans Of the Chicago educator. Prizes
would be given TO the winner in each
division.
This plan, well as II may look on
paper, fails to receive any favor among
the patriotic women of Washington. They
assert in no uncertain terms that this
country already has national anthem
which could not be improved upon. Any
attempt 10 supplant the Star Spangled
Banner" will fail Of consideration in this
city. The star Spangled Banner holds
a place of its own in every true Ameri-
can heart, they declare. and is sufficient
to thrill to patriotism any real Amtei-
can, without the aid Of any new anthem.
Il Is in times Of war. they assert. that
true patriotism is required, and then no
other song could stir up the patriotism
OF the nations defenders as would the

Mrs. Ernest W. Roberts, president OF

timent yesterday. The Star Spangled
Banner thrills every American heart, as
no other anthem could" said Mrs. Rob-
erts. "and I should say rs q nation we
are content without any attempted i'm
provements on It. To my mind It comes
up to every requirement as the national
anthem, and no anthem selected by a
board or Iegislated into its place by Con-
gress could supplant II IN the hearts Of
the American people"

Will Demand that Congress Com

Hand and Power Presses.

Denouncing Senator Smoot for his al
titude Of deception" more than 500 mem
bers Of the Plate Printers Union Of this
city last night announced their deter
mination OF demanding that the Joint
Congressional Committee on Printing
hold a complete investigation on the re-
spective merits of hand and power
presses. The mass meeting was held in

presses which the committee proposes
Installing into the Bureau OF Engrav-
ing and Printing, was a farce. The
meeting called by Senator Smoot for

said. was ''an effort to gloss over the
question and give the public an impress
sion that the committee respected opinion
other than its own"
Officers of the union stated at the con-
clusIon OF the meeting that they would
visit the Offices of the committee in a
body and petition the members thereof
to extend the hearings to an investiga-
ton where the actual merits Of the two

STIMSON'S REPORT
In HOUSE TO-DAY
War Secretary Urges Abandonment
Of Useless Army Posts and
Greater Concentration.

The House OF Representatives viii to-
day receive from Secretary Of War Slim
son a memorandum outlining the pro-
gramme Of the War Department IN re-
gard to the concentration OF the army
and the accompanying abandonment OF
army posts now regarded as useless, ex-
cessively costly, or for other reasons un-
desirable. It is the hope OF the Secretary
and Maj. Gen. Leonard Wood Chief OF
stan, that Congress will authorize the
department to carry out this programme.
The report says that the wide dispersion
now existing Is very detrimental to tao
teal efficiency. and causes unwarranted
extravaganza in administration and sup
ply. The chief points in connection with
eficient distribution Of the army are the
following:
at must be favorable for the tactical
training of the three arms combined
infantry, cavalry, and artillery.
'Tt must be favorable for the rapid
concentration Of the army upon our
frontiers.
'It must favor the best use Of the army
as a model for the general military train
ing of the national guard.
1T must favor the use Of the regular
army as a nucleus for war organizations.
TT must favor economical administra-
ton.
TT must permit n peace organization
which will also be effective in war; that
is, an organization which will permit q
prompt expansion in time OF war by
means of q system Of reserves.
THE mobile army Is now scattered In
forty-nine posts, and should be segre-
gated into detachments Of all arms, each
OF which can be assembled in strategic
centers readily for team training by rea-
sonable marches OF concentration"
1t is declared that no single group
should contain less than a brigade OF in
fantry. with q proper proportion Of cav
airy, field artillery. and special troops,
and at least one group should contain a
full tactical division. The troops are now
scattered in detachments. some OF them
consisting Of less than a regiment.
Independent cavalry forces should be
at at least two centers, according TO the
War Department view, and Chattanooga,
Tenn, and San Antonio. Tex, are named
as suitable points.

Threats of Disinheritanee.
He eabled his parent informing him of
his inten@ons to marry Mrs. Mudd. and
pleading fox his consent and blessing.
Instead Of receiving his blessing. the elder
JaJaval positively refused TO sanction the
contemplated marriage OF his son and
an American girl, accompanying this
ultimatum with threats OF disinheritance.
This proved a deep disappointment to
the young lovers, who were erestfaIlen
but had not given UP all hopes. They
consoled each other In the thought that
the stern parent might relent after a
year or two and give them his Yes, my
children; God bless you both.'
Acting upon this theory, Maj Jajaval
is said 20 have again cabled his father
shortly after his marriage TO former Mrs
Mudd at York. In order to protect
himself from the dire consequences which
he fears his father will visit upon him
II he disobeyed his injunctions. Mr.. Jaja-
