ANSWER REPLEvIN SUIT.
Judge Bundy VIII Render Decision
on Boys Brigade.

Arguments for counsel in the case OF
the replevin suit OF the Boys Brigade
company of the Christ Protestant EpIs-
copal Church against James Berry, one
Of the militant vestrymen, which in
wolves the title TO eighty-two rifles. were
heard yesterday by Judge Bundy in the
Municipal Court. Judge Bundy requested
counsel to file briefs. The court took
the matter under advisement, and an
nounced that decision would be rendered
at noon tomorrow.
The boys yesterday contended that the
rifles rightfully belonged to them. as they
purchased the guns from the War De-
partment with their own money.
The argument advanced by counsel for
Mr.. Berry was that the title of the rifles
was in the name OF the church. as the
Boys Brigade Company was one OF its
recognized organizations.
The boys have possession of the rifles
pending the outcome of the suit.

E. S. Hobbs Suggests Remedies
for Traction Prob
4 lens.

Suggestions for the solution of many
OF the Objectionable features OF the rail-
way service of the District were yes
terday submitted to the Commissioners
by z. S. Hobbs for consideration in con-
nection with the report on railway mat
tiers which is being compiled by the Dis
trict officials for transmittal to the
| Senate. Legislation is recommended
making 1t a penal offense, punishable by
a fine OF not less than 80 nor more than
$500. for conductor to permit a person
Ito board a car which is crowded. For
the purpose OF notifying prospective pas
sengers when the car is filled, II is sug-
gested to display signs on the exterior
| of the cars TO the effect that there are
| no vacant seats.
Marking on Seats.
For the purpose OF facilitating the
conductor in determining when the car
| is filled, 1t is recommended that spaces
for individual seats should be marked
of on longitudinal seats by transverse
partitions six or eight inches high. II is
pointed out, however. that transverse
seats would be preferable.
Assume" says Mr.. Hobbs, that fif-
teen cars pass given point per hour
at an average speed for the trip OF ten
miles an hour. Increase the speed to fif-
teen miles an hour without changing the
number OF cars in operation, and ap-
proximately twenty-five cars will pass
the given point in an hour instead OF
the fifteen with three resulting features
a passenger has 10 wait but three min
utes for a car where before he waited
four minutes. and once he is on he trav-
els with so per cent greater speed. while
two cars are made TO do the work or
three
The High Step EVIL.
The letter OF Mr.. Hobbs also points
out the need of lower steps. He says
that much time Is lost because of the
excessively high steps.
The third recommendation is with
respect to the installation of air
brakes on all cars operating IN the Dis
trict.
Recommendation is also made for
the installation of seats for motormen
for use in localities where trafic r.
light. The letter states that folding
seats could be constructed so as to be
quickly moved out of the way when
the motorman finds II necessary TO
stand.
The sixth recon mendation is with re-
spect TO car dispatching. Mr.. Hobbs
says that conditions during rush hours
should be considered abnormal, and
should not BE- used as the basis for dis
patching cars during the rest Of the day.

"EviI Eye" Based on Fact.

Most people have heard OF the Evil
Eye" and now we are informed by
Charles l.. Smith, noted New York
refractionist, that the superstition
arose because everyone, without know
ing 1t, has one eye that is different in
power and activity from the other. He
designates 1t the dominant eye" and
according to whether 1t Is the left or
the right children will grow up left
handed or right-handed. 1t is sheer
cruelty, and may entail lifelong mis-
cry, to force child to become am
bidextrous. Such a course may result
in wrecking the nervous system. and
can only be cured by reversal of the
process so that the dominant eye"
may regain natural and undisputed
sway. Men who are ambideXtrous had
better keep strict guard over their
actions lest they should be credited
with the evil eye"
