<RANDLE HIGHLANDS.

Secretary ]. NJ. ReiIley, OF the Randle
Highlands Citizens Association. is in
communication with all of the civic
bodies in the eastern section Of the Dis
trict. asking their cooperation in the
movement started by the association in
dlsapprOving the recommendations OF
the Commissioners regarding extensions
Of the railroad systems in the District
and requesting them TO withdraw their
recommendations and include therein
certain extensions desired in the eastern
section.
This action was brought about over
the failure OF Congress to pass a bill
granting a charter for the construction
Of an electric line from Anacostia to
Suitland Nd, by way OF Good Hope
Road, which line is considered to be of
extreme Importance to this section. as
It would provide transportation facIli-
ties for about 5000 persons, according to
the police census. The association fur
ther requests that the Anacostia and
Potomac River Railroad Company be
compelled to extend its line along this
route. or that the charter to granted
as requested. The Randle Highlands
body Is hopeful that all OF the civic bod
les will indorse the movement. SO that
joint action can be brought to bear In
the matter.

CALLS WASTE OF

DR.. Holms. Declares Country Ha.
outgrown Constitution and Docu-
ment viii Be Changed.

Addressing the members of the Ma
tional Academy Of Science yesterday af-
ternoon on the subject OF the national
phases Of the mining industry. Or. Joseph
A. Holmes, Director OF the United States
Bureau Of Mines. made the statement
that the United States has long since
surpassed the most sanguine hopes and
authorizations Of the trainers OF the Con-
stitution. and that the Constitution VIII
In the future be interpreted and changed
10 keep pace with the phenomenal growth
and to meet our national and interna-
tional relations.
The director Illustrated the need OF
greater safety and efficiency In the min
ing industries and called attention to the
fact that within the last ten years more
than 5000 men have been killed. and
more than 5000 injured in the mining
and quarrying operations Of this country.
He said during the past year 2o,oooO0o
tons OF coal had been left underground
in such condition as 70 make II prac-
dcally unrecoverable.
More natural gas than the aggregate
quantity OF the artificial gas manufac-
tured in all the United States was also
lost" he said.
law. DR.. Holmes said: "A general law
now upon the statute books. by prevent
ing practical cooperation among the coal
operators OF the country, has developed
a destructive competition among these
operators. and Is to-day In q measure
responsible for the present discreditable
waste OF coal and loss Of life in our coal
mining industry"
In their anxiety for growth and de-
velopment. the States have often failed
to enact or enforce legislation necessary
to safeguard the lives Of the miners.
Meanwhile the national government has
sRfeguarded the welfare of the nation
as representing the welfare Of all OF the
States.
In considering our natural resources.
II must be remembered that. measured
in the terms of the hfe of the nation. at
the present increasing rates of consump-
ton and waste OF these resources We
will. while the nation is still in its in
fancy, exhaust the resources necessary
for its future welfare"

tion Of life from the egg. and DIR. c. G.

Police In Biblical Times.

George Gordon Battle told the MEM
bers of the New York Police Lieuten-
ants Benevolent association, assem-
bled in monthly meeting at Terrace
Garden. that it was no new thing for
the populace of a city to register
kicks against the police force. To
show how ancient this custom was
he quoted the prophet Isaiah's arraign-
ment of the police force OF his day,
where he said: yet, they are greedy
dogs which can never have enough,
and they are shepherds that cannot
understand: they all look to their OWN
way, every one for his gain. from hin
quarter"
Mr.. Battle had volunteered to enter
tain the police lieutenants with an ad-
dress upon the historical development
of the English police system. He
traced the course of the policeman
from the vigiles of the Emperor Au-
gustus down through the watchmen of
England, not neglecting to touch on
the estimable Constable Dogberry.
Which led him to conclude with the
thought that though the members Of
the New York police force were but
human, as a body the force had rec
ognized its obligations and lived up
to them.

Calendar Reform In China.

From Picking it is announced that
the Chinese government is about to
drop the troublesome moon from its
calendar and follow the practice of
western nations in using only the
sun. The present Chinese year began
on January 80 and is the year 4S Of
the seventy-sixth cycle, cycle con-
sisting Of 60 years and the first year
OF the first cycle occurring B. G. 1887.
But owing to the use Of the moon the
number of days in the year varies con-
siderably. Ordinarily there are IL lu-
nations or months. but once in 30 lu-
nations thirteenth lunation is added
to the year, as a result of which the
year can be as short as 354 days or
as long as 3S4 days. The months are
more regular than our own, alternat-
ing between 29 and 80 days. The Chi
nese year completely fails to keep the
seasons within proper bounds
