times larger than that of any other paper in thectty. Asa local NEWS paper and Ad- When a public official like the superintendent of charities recommends the abolition of his own office, and the substitution therefor of a board, one must at least give him credit for Bonest and unselfish consideration of the mat ters placed in his charge. Superintendent Warner's second annual report, an abstract of which is published in today's Stax, contains much in the same line as the suggestions made | Yo his first annual report and which in some in- | stances provoked opposition to his work. He then made an earnest plea for economy in the District charity fund, mainly by establishing stem which would prevent duplication by institutions of kindred character, and if car- ried out would deprive a number of institu- tions of the appropriations which they had been accustomed to reeeive from the District revenues. The report now made brings out arly than probably the general public pected how h has been accom-| ring the year in the way of securing | like expenditure of | the institutions doing the work | ng pay in proportion to the public service The most importane achievement in ion has been the enactment of a law a board of children's guardians. Or Coxrivexce. ar ae There was a time when the quoting offow Prices was suflicient to attract scrowd of shoe buyers, but the shoe business of today, has, sifted down altoether to a matter of coubdence. Neither a display of the hand- fomest Shoes nor the quotation of the most alluring low prices will attract the intelli- gent buyer of today, unless there ts conf- dence tm the house offering these induce- ments. For over 16 years have we paid exclusive attention to the shoe wants of this comma- nity, and we point with excusable pride to the reputation we have gained for selling “RELIABLE FOOTWEAR ONLY,” “WITHOUT MISREPRESENTATION,” “AT LOWEST KNOWN PRICES.” Wecan give yous better-fitting and bet- ter-woaring Shoe at a lower price today than ft fs possible to obtain of any of our comyetitors. Why?—Because we know, by long experience, Just what you want and wherefrom to supply your wants to your best advantage—and by doing the largest shoo business here we are able to buy in larger quantities, and therefore at lower prices than it is possible for any other Shoe house tm this city todo. +, according to the superintendent, | 7 tutions for the care of | t children will receive public appro-| Dependent children will wards of the board of guardians, who} will place them in institutions or elsewhere and | pay for their maintenance out of @ general ap- propriation placed to their credit. The super- intendent regards this as an important step 1 a business-like administration of chari- ties. The establishment of the municipal loging house also is regarded by him asan advance. He looks forward to the elimination of what he regards as wasteful methods of administering | medical and other charities and evidently | hopes to secure through District board of charities and corrections, which he thinks | should be established in place of the office he now occupies, a better arrangement and ad-| ministration of alithe public charities and reformatories, ——__+ee —-—— ‘The month of October will witness Columbus celebrations in many places both in Europe and America. Genoa, the city of his nativity, Spain, the country in whose service the great Aiscoverer was at the time of the discovery, am the United States, the greatest of the Amer- fean republics which have resulted from the finding of the new world, are conspicuous among the celebrant, Grand statues will be unveiled at New York and at Huelva end Granada, Spain, and other appropriate cere- monies held, the full program of which has al- ready been published in Tux Stan. Beginning | With October 8 New York will celebrate on «| grand scale for five days, and in a more or less formal manner Chicago, Washington and other cities will commemorate either the old date, the 12th, or the nev the 2ist of October. ‘These celebrations will mark at once the won- erful leap in this hemisphere from primeval Wilderness to @ glorious civilization, and in Europe from medieval manners and culture to the very highest stage of advancement the buman race has ever achieved in all the depart- ments of knowledge and refinement. Chris- topher Columbus stands midway between the darkest and the brightest eras of the world, at | the moment when commerce and learning and | freedom were beginning to strike off the| shackles of bondage. To Europe he was the incarnate spirit of Reywlu- tion, foreshadowing progress and en- lightenment with liberty in their train. To America his advent was the dawn, the creation, the beginning of society. Hence in Ameri if nowhere else, is there a fuil recognition of his vast services to humanity. The to him in this quadrp-centennial are themeelves ‘an epoch in human story of scarcely less mo- ment and even more brilliancy than the era of the Revolution or that of the Emancipation. ‘The scene is as if out of the scroll of the great past the scroll of a greater future were unrolled by fate in the presence of mankind and of the majestic spirits who have il ted the annals of America. The shades of Columbus, of Wash- ington and of Lincoln may well be imagined as Jooking on in supreme satisfaction while sixty- five millions of our own population and the myriads south and north of this republic keep the day of the discovery. a Mr. Cleveland will affirmatively settle for himself tomorrow at the meeting of the demo- eratio league clubs in New York the question whether @ presidential candilate A speak in a campaign on the political issues of | the day.

However unsound his itieal exposition of Seripture history be viewed, be was on the me scholars and historians of his time, fruitf it bas been in historical authorship.
