STAR: PENNSYLVANIA AVENUE MUST BE RAISED. The Sewerage Commission—It Should Be Appointed at Once. : ‘To the Editor of Tae Evexixe Stan: The of raising Pennsylvania ave- nue above the reach of floods, Iam glad to see, is exciting the attention of members of the press in other parts of the country, among them such able journalists as General Boynton of the Cin- cinnati Commercial Gazette, who, I believe, is an educated civil engineer. When the press of the whole country unite in advocating the im- portant movement, it will soon be a success, It is to be regretted that a few men owning prop- erty on the avenue or low grounds adjacent are so blind to their own interests as to oppose this necessary improvement, which, if executed, will enhance the value of their property tmuch fnore than enough to pay the cost of the work, even though the entire amount were as- sessed against them, which no member of Congress wouid p! to do, This great work, including the reconstruc- tion of our system of drainage, can be accom- plished without tpsean, ors present generat or even the next, one doliar, except for a smal! item of interest.’ Let the total cost bo cure- fully estimated, and then let the United States issue say ¥10,000,000 (or whatever the amount required may be) of 3 per cent fifty-year bonds, interest payable semi-annually, with no sinking fund proviso for the first forty years, This would « distribute the burden fairly. The Popa. lation of the United States end of next fifty years, judged by the ratio of increase the past fifty years, will be 200,000,000, and that of Washington, judged by the increase during the same period, will be over 1,000,000, or one three-hundredth part of that of the whole coun- try. Startling as these seem, they will be more than borne out if Washington continues tobe the seat of government. The way to make it the permanent seat of government is to make the city attractive and healthy by rais- ing the low grounds and establishing a system of drainage consistent with common sense, TIME THAT THE SEWERAGE COMMISSION WAS APPOINTED. In this connection allow me to call attention to the last appropriation bill, in which I find under the head of sewers the following: “The President of the United States is here- by authorized to appoint three competent sant- tary engineers, who shall examine and report upon the system of sewerage existing ii the District of Columbia, together with such sng. recommendations as may to them seem necessary or desirable for the modifica- tion and extension of the same, and such report shall be transmitted to Congress by the Presi- dent at its next session. And for the purpose of defraying the expenses of such examination and report the sum of #15.000, or so much thereof as may be necessary, is hereby appro- priated.” I have not heard of this commission being aypointed. As only four months intervenes between now and the meeting of Congress, it is hoped the President will act promptly, and that at least x majority of the commission may be civil engineers who are familiar with our city. ita needs and what it has suffered from floods, J.

George Alfred Townsend's Letter, The dishonesty of Germany, and it needs to be watched lest it conquer the modern world, is the commission system of Wages, putting upon the customer or guest the wages due the merchant’s servants, Said James L.

Said he: “Europe is largely run upon the system of paying commissions for trade. The chief por- ter at the Central hotel in Berlin, pays, I am told, 10.000 per year to the establishment for his place. He then makes out of each person who becomes a guest at least one mark and the sum is 100.000 marks, or $25.000. so that he hasa clean commussionof profit of $15,000, More- 4 over. he char; every tradesman, carriage man. &c.. to whom he recommends any guest, @ commission upon thesame.

Sometimes these commissions are deult out with the tradesmen in goods in- stead of cash, The system extends to railroad employes, drivers of cabs and livery teums and includes both sexes, So instead of paying wages Europe lets its labor PLUNDER THE MOVING PURLIC and divides the spoil. This system is sinister and dishovest and accounts for the great costof traveling here beyend the schedule charges one has provided for, I left Paris for Berlin eight days ago—fares and sleeping berths first-class tI paid that in eight ing stopped only 24 hours at Liege, 45 hours at Spa, parts. of the and finally at 1 have not yet paid my vill, should put 12a day as the minimum of de- cently and properly traveling in Europe comes one who is identified as of his count: and all men should feel so, Of the expense I have given I should think that nearly 50 per cent was visible or invisible commissions, Sometimes it is ali the commission, as when a go unworthy servitors, like servants of liberal men, hold out their hands to the fettered guest.

This is done to force the convention to business. The time for the articles for the constitution expired to-day and as the committees must report before Thursday the body will soon be hastening toward the day of the adjournment. The event of the day was the consideration of the resolution providing for a single body of the legislature. The lead- ing champion of the’ oné-bouse idea was Stev- ens of Ransom, who delivered a carefully pre- pared speech, citing the fact that the Declara- tion of Independence was prom ted by a single body, that the sebettintions af tae pv A have all been udopted by singie bodies and the [herd eggs with their vast me coer ong er reac! commerce are erned bodies, The Rev. Ezra Taruer of Bottinesa, and Parsous of Morton, also spoke in favor. No vote was taken. South Dukota Delegates Must Hurry. Just one-third of the delegates were present at a ten-minute session of the South Dakota convention at Sioux Falls yesterday. The only business presented was a resolution instructing the joint committee on the part of South Da- kota that in case of any uncertainty as to the location of the seventh standard parallel, the boundary line between the Dakotas us fixed by the omnibus bill, to come to the best possible agreement with the committee of North Dakota and report the same, Computations by several members develop the faci tiat by the close of this week the $20.000 appropriation will be ex- hansted, in which case the delegates will be obliged to go down into their pockets for their expenses during the remainder of the session and trust to legislature or Congress for reim- bursement, Few Present at Olympia.

PAYING OVER THE STAKES. The Money John L. Sullivan Will Re- ceive as His Share. John L, Sullivan is still in New York City. Editor Arthur Lumley of the New York [lius- trated News suid yesterday that the big fellow was not likely to leave for Boston for at least a couple of days. “The $20,000 stake money,” said Mr. Lumley, ‘will not be paid to him to- day, but he will probably receive it during the week,” + Al Cridge, the stakeholder, is now at Long Branch, as is ulso Muldoon. Cridge was anxious to pay over the money on Friday, but those most interested in the dispoval of the stakes said thero was no need of hurrying. “Sullivan has already received $4,600,” said @ representative of the Jilustratd News, Of this sum #1,000 was his bet with Kilrain on en- tering the ring, and $3.600 being his shure of the excursion money aud gate receipts, Of this sum he has, in all probability. paid out fully 2,000. When the stake money is dix Ewe of duilivan will receive 10.000, which will ring up his total receipts to 214.6U0. Hie backers will receive the other $10,v00, which will be divided as follows, after paying at least 2,000 to Biily Muldoon for his trouble and labor in training the siugger: ‘Vo the J lustrated News, one-half; to Charlie Johnson, one-quar- ter; to ‘Jim Wakely, one-quarter.

W. H. Smith. the government leader, laid on the table the report of the com- mittee on royal grants. The report recom- mends that the sum of £900 be added to the quarterly allowance of the Prince of Wales. The report maintains the right of the queen to ask parliament to make further provision for her grandchildren, Mr. Labouchere, in the debate on the grant to Princess Louise on the occasion of her mar- riage to the Earl of Fife, moved the rejection of the report of the committee, and to substi- tute therefor an address to the queen, reciting ann ot things that the sums already voted by poltomont on the teval’ terliy: sos he amply sufficient for all their proper ee that if further lies are they ought to be provided rh retrenchment of the expenses of the royal family, not by fresh demands upon the taxpayers.

STYLES OF HAIR CUTTING. A Western Barber Gets Out an Amusing aud Unique Fashion Plate. From the Kansas City Times Mr. Henry A. Mayor, a Main-street barber, has perfected a unique bair-dresser’s fashion plate, A man can look over the fashion plate, select the style of hair cut or beard trimming he wants and has only to call out the number | of the one selected without giving any further instructions, The idea of getting up such a fashion plate suggested itself to him one day while looking in the show window of a photo- ! graph gallery. He has spent over a year in| Perfecting hi ‘ion plate, has it copyrighted, and has applied for a patent. In order to prop- erly carry ont his plan of getting up a fashion | plate he would go to the park or some public ! place, or even on thi reet. find a suitable | subject and induce him to have his hair or | beurd trimmed in the style most becoming to him. then have him photographed, tront, side and back view. ‘The fashion plate shows forty- eight different views, There are seventeen different styles of trimming the beard, the “Greeley, ‘nglish.” **Vanderbilt.” ‘Turko,” “Senator,” “German,” “Scotch.” -*American.” French,” *Ladida, “Bridle,” three kinds of “Priuce Albert,” “Favorite,” “Clergy” and several slight variations from these. The “American” or southern style is the most popu- lar tor older men and the “Favorite” for younger men. The styles of cutting bair are many, and all the styles a represented on the plate, rg or four styles of pompadour are shown, an barber who knows his busin has a better chance to cut a man’s hair to suit his face ina pompadour cut than any other. This is still the most popular style. The principal style of hair-cutiing he calls the one-fourth. one-! haif and three-fourths shingle, with different | styles of parting and of trimming the eck. mm there are the “Saratoga,” the horseshoe.” the ‘feather edge,” the ‘high d.” “*wociety” and -*square” pompadour, tight olip,” “medium clip” and “Bill Nye” styles, veral heads perfectly bald on, top have the ‘hair so arranged as to cover up the Sebcieney, The Logan roll is the most | elaborate bi cut. and is really two cuts in one.
