THE EVENING STAR: WASHINGTON, D.C., TUESDAY, JANUARY 11, 1887—WITH SUPPLEMENT i _ell -_ —_——— % Y ga THE EVENING STAR. WASHINGTO ‘Tho Evening Star tas © Tesulet) sermencat bona fide daily circulation more than treble that of any other daily paper published in Washington, and much greater than that of all the ether dally papers here added together. THE STAR connot undertake to preserve or return rejected communications, Contributors who wish to possess their manusertpts, f un- used, should keep a copy. | Matter of whatever character intended for publication must, if its appearance the same day is desired, reach the office not later than 12 clack noon. 88" No attention paid to Anonymous Letters. ‘The House of Representatives has evidently be- come as weary as the rest of the Washington pub- Ue of such performances as It indulged im before the holidays with regard to District matters. Perhaps in the whole history of local legtslation so large an amount of work was never pushed through in the same length of tine. Most of moreover, was of a character to command the ap- Proval of the bulk of the citizens of the District. ‘The school bill was taken out of the hands of the Hilinols delegation, who must have reached the coneluston, before the afternoon was over, that the education system of Washington was not a Private Institution for the amusement, edification OF profit of a single imported oMeeholder. ‘The Dill for the construction of the much-needed ‘Dridge across the Eastern branch was passed, 95 ‘were the important ones establishing titles in tax salo real estate; authorizing the Conunisstoners to make police reculations; and for the protection of lives and property from fire. Other measures ‘Were acceptably disposed of, and every Congress- man who had a share in the day's proceedings probably went home with a load off his mind and an improved opinion of hiinselt. — + Srectuxrizs: rated a few days ago created such s furore that within forty-cight hours from the time we made the an- nouncement the aumnber of splendid overcoats on our bargain counters marked @15 esch had grown “not small by degrees,” but “beautifully less" with light- ning like rapidity, and the demand for these rare bar- gains increasing with every hour, there was nothin« left for us todo but announce the sale closed or add fuelto the flame by filling up the gap made by tho great demand. a We have, therefore, gone through our stock care- fully, and wherever there were three ar less of one lot, “Crosmaour Pares.

We don’t care to carry over broken lote, and as you areinterested only in ‘one overcoat, the chancesare youraizeis among them in several kinds, We continue this sale during the week. ‘Samples are on exhibition in our show windows. ‘The 88.50 suit sale still goes bravely on. It is really surprising the number of saits we can unload ina siven time—ar a race Surely we have placed a handsome business suit within the reach of all when we name $8.50 for your choice of about 28 different styles of gentlemen's suits. Look in our windows or stroll through our establishment at your convenience, Wisconsin has judge of whom she may feel as pardonably proud asof her governor. His name Is Sloan, and he presided at the trial of the Bay View Hloters in Milwaukee. His charge tothe jury laid down the law without mincing terms, following in sts general tenor the utterances of Judge Gary at Chicago last summer. “Every person,” he sald, “who went to Bay View to take out the scabs was guilty of participation {In the uniawful work of the mob). Every one who was there and cn- couraged it was also guilty. The amonnt of vio- Jence Is of noconsequence. ‘The owners and em- ployees of the mills had a right to work, and any interference was unlawful.” It takes courage ‘even for a magtstrate on the bench, in these days of looge logic and sloshy seutiment, to draw so sharp a line as that between guilt and innocence; and yet itissound law and sound sense—every word of it. Uponany other basis the itherty of the citizen on Which We Americans so vaunt our institutions, 1s a mockery anda fraud. No man has a right to raise his hand in violence against a neighbor Who has not done as much to him, In the right to work and eat and sleep and acquire Property and amuse himself in peace, the law must Protect the humblest human being on the face of the earth, and the man who plans or threatens interference with this right must suffer joinuy ‘with the man who actually commits the deed of Sigel Although it {s common to think of the late Isaac Sprague, the “living skeleton,” only in the capac- ity of a museum freak, he really occupied a more dignified position in the world of selence. Prob- ably no man of his age had been the guest of a larger number of physicians and medical colleges than he. He was blessed, moreover, with a fairly intelligent mind, and employed it on the study of hfs own case. Nothing like It was ever known Defore. The next most famous “living skeleton” was Calvin Edson, whose emaciation was caused by the gradual narrowing of the thoracic duct, while Sprague’s was due to muscular atrophy. ‘This disease usually runs {ts course in five years; ‘the longest period recorded before Spraguo’s was ton years; but Sprague, who taust have been about forty-six Fears old, showed his first symptoms at the age of twelve. When he entered Mr. Barnum’s ‘employ in 1867 ke weighed ninety pounds, Two years ago this figure had shrunk to forty-three, and he had become partly helpless through the dissipation of the muscular fibre in nfs arms and Jega. Strange to say, his parents were strong and full blooded, and his brothers and sisters ranged {mWweight at maturity, from one hundred and seventy to two hundred pounds. His three ehtl- Greu, aiso, are of normal stature and sound health. Sprague at one time announced his purpose of Dequeathing bis body to the Harvard medical school, to be used in whatever manner would most Fenefit the cause of science. Whether his legal representatives will consent to this, however, 15 open to question. ao So thoroughly identified was the name of John ‘Roach with the trade of shipbutlding that prob- ably few of his fellow citizens are aware that his original occupation was that of a machinist, and ‘the ambition of his earlier lite to be a farmer. It 13 noteworthy coindence that tue two great changes in his career were wrought by the busi- ness failures of friends In whose fortunes he was Anancially entangled. In the first instancehehad Dought afarm and paid down one-half of the slender savings of years of toil asa mechante; the other haif he had left in the hands of a man Whom he trusted like a brother, but who became a bank- Tupt. When the the for the final payment ar- rived, therefore, Roach was unable to produce the money and lost the farm. This sent him back to his trade, thoroughly disgusted with lls agricul- tural hobby. The second tnstance was when he had become surety on a contract held by a ship- builder at Chester, Pa. ‘The contractor fatled, and, rather than pay his indebtedness, Roach resoived tocomplete the work in hand. He did so, and with such shrewdness that he made a handsome promt and concluded that there was more money Yor him in shipbuflding than In machine-making. Mr. Roach’s remarkable history illustrates the toy of repining over adverse accidents, which so ‘often open the happtest opportuniti-s if our cour- age 1s equal to the test. a Several pamphlets hav recently been printed in England to answer tn the query, “Who invented the adhesive postage stamp?” Up to within a short time Sir Rowland Hill, “ihe father of the penny post,” has been accorded the honor; but his claim As disputed by Mr. Patrick Chalmers, of Wimble- don, in behalf of his father, Jumes Chalmers. To many minds such a question seemsa strange one to make the text for a vigorous controversy, since ‘the Invention consisted nierely Of a device to take ‘the place of the cld method of printing “Paid” or “Six pence postage due” on the outside of a let ter or packsye with 4 hond-stamp held by the postmaster. Yet, insenstbly to itself, the World recetved from the adhesive stamp one of the greatest practical benefits it has ever Known. The national Weasuries have acquired more money ‘through the tnereased convenience to the public oa the one hand ond th: greater taciitty of collec- ‘Wom on theother. The adhesive stamp made cor- Tespondence easier: the ease of correspondence made its volume larger; the mereased volume paved the way for.cheaper rates Hence tt comes ‘Yhat to the lmvention of a itttle bit of colored Pepersmenred with muctlaxe un the back, we must credit our power to send a letter today frum one extreme of the United Kingdom to the otuer for a penny, or from Bangor to Los Angeles for its equivalent in Americun money. It is not wonder. ful, tu view of what the last forty-six years have witnessed In postal progresson both sides of the globe, that the honor of devising so far-reaching an Mmprovement should be regarded worth con. ‘Tending for. eg In America they lecture; im Engiand t u sing.
