Breakfast for a Man.

Just what is the correct food for
breakfast? Some hold that the Scot
tish hardness is directly due to the
national devotion to oatmeal. On the
other hand, famous physician once
adduced, as proof Of the superior
vigor of the inhabitants Of Scotland,
the fact that they can survive such a
lot of oatmeal To add to our confu-
sion, here are the views of old Mr.
Jordan.
He had brought up from the village
station the trunks and express pack
ages belonging to the artists from
New York who were spending the
summer In the cabin on the old Jor-
dan place. and had waited good-na-
turedly to open the boxes for the
ladies'.
On opening the box of groceries, he
found that one package had been
pierced by a nail AS he looked at the
contents sprinkling themselves liber-
ally over the floor, he smiled toler-
antly.
Curious now, amt II" he remarked,
"how folks tastes differs? I've seen
folks that reely made themselves
think they liked that sawdust. and
that 1t done 'em good Now | got
no use for them breakfast foods that

Are All Men Born Equal?

"Why Is one man able. to gather
others with capital about him, launch
business enterprise of large proper
tlons and carry it to success. while
his neighbor spends an entire lifetime
plodding at small things in small
way"
This is the question James Laurence
Laughlin, professor of political econ
omy In the University of Chicago, asks
and in the Outlook he proceeds to an.
swer 1t:
Because Nature has distributed Its
gifts uneyenly between men. Clear
judgment and q genius for managing
large affairs are not characteristics SO
common as to pass unnotlced.
''Ths competitive spirit Is born in
u.s. Every normally constituted hui
man being has in him an impulse to
be or TO do something better than his
heighbor. The world is the gamer by
this common impulse. for 1t inspires
invention, promotes resourcefulness.

ANACOSTIA.

Following numerous complaints TO Dis
trict officials regarding the growth of
weeds along the streets in Anacostia
cleaning up. The growth was especially
high along Minnesota avenue, so mucn
so that the sidewalk was hardly of any
use.
1t is probable that President Charles r.
Burr OF the Anacostia Citizens Asso-
citation will be required to call a meeting
of the executive committee of that body
some time during the present month in
order that questions now pending may
be decided and presented to the proper
District officials. A report of the COM
mittee having in charge the baggage and
express matter is also due and it probab bly,
will be made when the meeting is called
Mr. Burr is getting ideas OF citizens as
to desired improvements. in order that
he may be able to present them when
the, committee meets. There is one thing
that will be presented. if nothing else,
and that is the street car problem, with
view to getting better facilities, and
also OF inducing the Capital Traction
Company to extend its lines within. the
limits Of Anacostia. 1t is believed that
the present service will be improved only
when there is competition.
Rapid progress is being made on the
construction of the new central entrance
to the grounds of the Government Hos
pital for the Insane and it is expected
that in few weeks it will be completed.
Due TO it's construction. 1t has been
necessary TO change some OF the sur
rounding buildings and conditions. 1t has
not been decided whether the other two
gates now in use will be closed or not.

MURRAY STILL IN PRISON
Not the Man Wanted Here for
$1,000 SWindIe of Local
Realty Firm.

A message from the prison officials at
Canon City. Col. last night gave the 10
cal police the information that T. j. Muir
ray, the bank swindler with many aliases.
whose photograph had been identified as
likeness of the individual who recently
perpetrated a nine-thOusandeig ht-hun-
dred-dollar swindle on the realty firm of
Boss & Phelps. is still in prison there.
He will not be released until 1917, the
message said.
Maj. Sylvester and Inspector Boardman
were disappointed when they received the
message. 1t is explained that two men
named Murray had been sentenced to
the Colorado prison and that one of them
had been paroled. The one who was
paroled is not the one who was known
as Mowery, Farnham and Workman.
The police place no credence in re-
port that the man who perpetrated the
swndle was seen In Alexandria after he
had drawn the money from a local bank.
Inspector BOardman said this morning he
thought the swindler unquestionably left
this section of the country as soon as he
drew the $3.50 from the bank a week
ago, having drawn the $500 earlier in the
week
1t was claimed at police headquarters
this morning that the police know no
more about the Identification of the
sWindler than they did the day the COM
plant was made. circular will be
issued by the police asking for his arrest.
