On the Other hand the Pittsburgers did excellent work with Gulmore’s delivery, and made twelve hits. ‘The result of the combination was that the Sena- tors were whitewashed, 5 to.

At a meeting last night of Citizens’ Association, No. 2, Southeast Washington, a letter was read from the District Commissioners in reply to @ communication from the association, relating to the grading of Kentucky avenue. The Commis- sloners stated that the workhouse gang will be put on that work whenever they are not otherwise employed. Mr. Weller spoke at some length on the attitude Which tis association has always held toward ‘the railroad problem. They have always con- ‘ended, he said, that the Baltimore and Ohio road should be compelled to unite its, two tracks and enter the city on the line of the Baitimore and Potomac. This has been opposed by every other member of the executive comunittes of the Com- mittee of One Hundred, with whom the favorite plan was for the Baltimore and Ohio to run down 3d street, tunnel to North Carolina avent and ‘Uhen emerge into an cutand join the Balti- more and Potomac. ‘two members of that executive committee, continued Mr. Weiler, Mr. and himself, who represented Southeast ‘ashi ia turn so that a com} been reached by a@ bill which has been introduced in both Houses, authorizing | the appotntment of a commission ‘of nine to deter. mine Upon the lines of all tracks, and the location of the the commission to be composed of the Sec: of War, the superintendent of pub- lic bulidings and junds, three citizens to be designated by the it, the com. missioner Of the District, and a ntative of each of the three railroads running into the city. Tn alluding to what he termed a remarkable state of affairs la Southwest Washington, he read from a clipplog trom Tue Stak, giving a report of the meelihg of the association in that section, held May 15, at which the association unanimously endorsed the scheme to tunnel 3d street, and to ruil arteld Park, the finest reservaticn in the elty. “I thinl he said, “that the people of Southeast Washington are competent to decide as to What we want and not to submit to the eadorse- ments of any littie clique Im Lue Southwest.” Mg. E. B. Stocking suid tuat he was surprised, to say the least, that any resident of East Wash- ington could give consent to any plan that would permit any raliroad to cross any street at either above or below grade. lie was satisfied that the Baltimore & Obio docs aut Want to cross the city When they can go around and save a quarter of a mnile Of Urack, and 1 was not at ali tmprobable ‘that the company 1s Bow buying options for land along the Eastern Branch. Ina meeting of the executive committee that afternoon, he said, action Was taken Which will probably prevent the cOnsidetation of the Farweil bili in the Senate to- morrow. Mr. Weller followed up Mr. Stocking’s remarks by reading irom the deed of the original grant of the land of this city to the Government by the owners, in which is @ clause making a condition that, 1u his opinion, took away from the Govern- ment the legal right to divide any portion of the Jand set apart for public parks with private per- Sous or corporations. He thought that if the ume should come and the citizens should unite and employ eminent counsel to ventilate this question, it Would ve found that the Government bas done What It bad no right to do, ilding Lien Law. The Bu: To the Editor of Tux EVENING Stan: Ihave read with interest the communications in Tax Stax relating to building Hens and the troubles arising theretrom—. e., the demanding and collecting of pay for materials which had al- ready Veen paid for by the owner of the building. ‘The complaint seems to be that the contractors receive payment for the completed buliding, labor and material included; then subsequenUly’ some dealer Wuo had furnished material tor the same buliding presents a biil ior tue material, for Which he had not been paid, and the owner must pay a secund Ume lor Lual material or see bis house sold under the lien law, and there ts no redress. Now, as to wheiher there is redress or not de pends, it seems to me. I the contractor is worth tue price of tat material (and costs) above what 43 allowed him under the exemption laws of the District, it seems Lo me that for us second pay- ment (Or, rather, for tne contractor's non-pay- iment) recovery could be had iu a court of equity. ‘The coutract for Duliding Would show (espectaliy Af At be in writing, as all slich contracts suowid be, and properly written) that tke woney paid the contractor inciuded Ube cost of all materials as well asiabor. So much of what was the con. Tractor, as Was for materials and the Labor of otuers, ‘Was received by him, not as hisown mouey, but as’ money belonging Lo and in Lrust for those Who performed Unat tabor or (urnisued Une ma- terial. The non-payment of that money by the con- tractor is Ue perpetration of a fraud. ASI have Hot eXatulued tue statutes in this counection I do not know whether uuder the laws ot the District At wot not. id come under the head of embezzlement or ‘Tue general defuition of embezziewent cer ly covers the case. If Use laws governing the ict do not, then ‘one step toward a remedy Would be to so” amend the laws as to make the ayiNeUL of IOMeY Kecelved Ly @ contractor < Ovuers and for material used ina building ewbezzienent, punishable by flue or tu Prisoument, or both. Who wouid oppose the pas- Sage O1 Sucli a law? "Not the deaiers in materials, for they Would bein no Way Interested, (anless, indeed, they, or some of them, have some interest in the “double payment extorted under the lien JaW,) aNd no Lowest contractor wouid care or dis- honest contractor dare vo oppose it. Secure ihe passage of such a law and apply It where it way in Tulure be needed, and there will be an end to trouble about double payments under ‘Une present Hen law. Yours, SW. WASHINGTON, D. C., May 21, 1883. ‘To the Editor of Tux EVENING Star: My attention bas Just been called to an article iu Tux Stax of the 19th inst. under the heading, “With Light Fingers.” Among other things your Gevective informant says “there is another class of persons who need considerable watching,” thereby referring to the clerks of the various busi- ness houses. Now, Ileave“it to any fair-minded person if tuat is not a contemptible reflection on 2s hard-worked and patient a class ag there 13 to ‘ound. ‘There are no more black sheep ¥ other class of peo- ple; then Way snowid he condemn the whole? And, further, he says (after referring to saiary, Viz,’ $3 wo $10 per week), “with that small sun they Cannot hire buggies, put up champagne and thers.” Why even adetective should seuse tan to uller such an absurd re. ¥, even suppose a clerk should think of ‘ha thing, he would certainly have to have fine hes in order to carry that scheme into effect, and to have such clothes and induige in the dissi- pation he alleges he would have to steal the entire Stock of lus departinent at least once a week. Why in the uame of common sense does he not accuse ‘our busiuess mea of having no Drains, ‘There are Many other statemeuts In the articie that I would like to answer, Dut Iam a clerk myself and have no time for dissipation oF answering such silly Statements, In conclusion, Mr. Editor, { don’t deny that there are some clerks as bad as h has painted them. There are as many bad clerks as there are honest detectives. CLaex. nae Real Estate, Deeds in fee have been filed as follows: c. €, Willard to H. A. Willard, lots 5 and 6, 8q as; $0200. G. S.

The New York Tribune says: Mr. Marsden’s friend, John A. Harrington, of the Dramatic News, and for eight years dramatic editor of the Sunday Dispatch, said yesterday that, by the dead man’s my him and prevent the which idea De ceteatronne a come. ia oe al Spaced sothat they are mile. If only a single wire 1s used they are spaced trom twenty-five to twenty-eight to the mile. ‘The most accurate method, and the one most in use by experienced raliroad is tocount the rail Joints the train passes over in 20 seconds, The raiisin nearly all cases are 30 feet in length, and the number passed over in 20 sec- onds 1s the speed per hour a train is running. For instance, if a ates sitting in a sleeper can count thirty clicks of the wheels on a rail joint in 20 secouds the train is running at the speed of 30 imiles an hour. ant The Sphere of the Advertiser. ‘From the St. Lonis Globe- Democrat, ‘There was a time in the history of newspapers when advertisements were very monotonous read- ing, and people skipped them quite as a matter of course. But that time has gone by, never to return, ‘The advertiser has heen studying the philosophy of his business in recent yeara, and the result 1s that he has evolved certain rules and methods ‘which are t admirable and effective. He 4s no longer content with the old “standing ad” ‘thatzused to do duty for weeksjor months without change, and that was paid for as a sort of charity rather than a8 a commercial investment, It has come to pass that he insists upon making new Proclamations every day, as fresh as the latest tel- egraphic news; and the money to secure & prominent position therefor 1s disbursed in a lib- eral and cheerful manner. He would take the whole paper if he could get it, so anxious 1s he to be heard, and so willing is he'to buy the privilege of talking about his wares. His sphere is one that continually expands, and he isin nis way an auto- crat of literary taste and style. It may be said that his egotism occasionally goes beyond the Imits obeyed Dy the dest authors, but thea he celebrates himselt so candidly and "so entertalt ly that it 1s easy to pardon him, Tue railroad companies were foremost in the discovery of the real advantages of advertising, and in the adoption of proper means to make it table. They originated what may be called he advertiser's system of speech, as distinguished from the systems by which other classes of writers Seex to interest and impress the reading public. Every railroad company of any importance now has its Mterary bureau, and does its advertising ‘with as much Skill and enterprise as it conducts the rest of its affairs. The same 13 to be said of a majority of the large mercantile and manufactur- ing firms and corporations of the country; and we time is coining When all such institutions will have capable men employed expressly for service of that kind. When the fact 18 considered that the large sum of $25,000,000 was expended last year for newspaper advertising in the United States one may readily understand not only how highly it is esteemed as a source of bus!- ‘ess profit, but also how eager advertisers must be Yo excel one another in an art that implies con- ‘nt literary competition. Itis not sufficient any more to say that prices have been reuuced and bargains are to be had at a given establishment the inducements count for nothing unless they a1 set forth in attractive and ingemious terms. ‘The customers will not be wooed in the old, dull, un- daring fashion, It is necessary to appeal to them with a certain degree of novelty and dexterity, or they can not be Won, aud the goods will remain upon the shelves though marked down to cost. ‘Aglance at any favorite and widely circulated newspaper Ike the Glove- Democrat Will show that the advertiser appreciates this fact, and 1s guided by it as by anexplicit and inflexibie law. He Writes with a definite purpose, and under stress of direct jary solicitude. ’ His 1 are Worthless if they do not compel attention and bring him us, So he strives to clothe them in language that will please and influence the aver- age buyer, and it inust be admitted that his suc- cess gues far to justily his literary processes. Thus 1© Lappens that his portion of the paper ts often more agreeable than any other, notwithstanding ‘the fact that It is quite scornful of those topics of political, scientific and moral purport to which we are acctistomed to attach so much Importance, His spuere does not strictly entitle him to any of the honors of authorship; and yet a good many authors might learn valuable lessons of force and recision irom his efforts, We are not sure, in- |, but the beginner in literature who ts lookii for the secret of @1 ‘and popular writing wil be more likely to find it in the newspaper adver- Usements of the day than in any book which he Thay consult. It is there, at least, that the value of words is measured with close reference to prac- Ucal results; and if the example is someeimes Wanting in exact obeu:*"ce to the established ca- nous of art, it rarely fails to reach the point at which itis &imed—and 1s not that, after all, the ‘true test of literary excellence! —— —s@e- Still Snowshoeing it Up North, From the Albeny Journal.
