a — _THE EVENING STAR. WASHINGTON. HE EVENING STAR has a regular and permanent circulations in Washington three tmeslarger than that efany ether paper tn the city. As a lecal NEWS paper and Ad- vertisiog Medium it bus ne competiter. ‘Men and women who suffer from overweight i of flesh in fifty days and the departure of that apoplectic floridity which has for the past two ‘or three years been one of the senator's most marked facial characteristics. How much longer the treatment would have been contin- ued and what the ultimate results might have been in this particular case cannot be guessed, for tho fatty degeneration of the heart suddenly reached the point of fatality and the dieting came to an ed. Medical experience would suggest, though, that everything would have been well had the most vital of organs been unaffected; that the mere bulk could easily have been removed and future growth controlled. It is question- able whether the speed of reduction was not too great. and although in the case under dis- cussion the rate probably had nothing to do with the decease still the best of the authori- ties are satisfied that a loss exceeding ten pounds a month is too much of # drain upon ordinary vitality. The principle of the reduc- tion is easily understood. Lean meat, being nitrogenous, forms muscle and not fat Lean meat eaten by a very lean person would be difficult of assimilation, for fat is necessary to the assimilative process, but when swallowed by one who is plentifully supplied with fat the combination supports life and, of course, diminishes the encumbering tissue consider- The usefulness of hot water as an anti- dyspeptic beverage has long been asserted; it helps digestion as no other perfectly harmless fluid can. Food that is starchy or fat is digested in the smail intestines, but lean meat distributes its good qualities from the stomach, and in that work a sufficiency of hot water materially assists the frequently-ineffective gastric juice. Altogether the ‘lean-meat remedy” seems to be the best yet known for the removal of snperfluous fat; and it has the ad- vantages also of being cheap and easy of “Sg Rug Pe ne If the Columbian Exposition management desires to do that which would be eminently fair it will decide in favor of the proposition to cut the price of Sunday admission to the grounds in two.and let the public in on that ‘one day for half price. There are many reasons why this should be done. In the first place Sunday is regarded asthe workingman’s day, the day when the toiling thousands with their view the wonders which have been gathered from all parts of the earth. At fifty cents a ead the treat to a family of six or seven is a ‘trifle expensive, and when we remember how many there are in Chicago and neighboring towns whose wages sre extremely low it does seem as though the sympathetic argument in favor of a twenty-five-cent rate was strong. ‘Then it must also be borne in mind that many of the exhibits are closed on Sunday. Of course ‘the Sabbath day visitor cannot see any more than a fraction of the show anyhow, there is so much of it, but it would seem to be no more than right to cut the figures down to popular prices. If that is done it is but reasonable to estimate that the Sunday attendance will speed- ily reach half a million. —+e+___ Some parent or other deeply-interested indi- it? ‘vidual should take the American small boy aside and tell him, forcibly if necessary, that the one day in the year on which firecrackers and other noisy evidences of modern patriotism may be exploded without causing somebody's arrest is the Fourth of July. Of lste years the idea has spread abroad that it was a perfectly legitimate Proceeding to commence celebrating the na- tional birthday two or threo weeks before it ar- rived and to continue the resounding practice until August was near at band. The notion is without proper foundation, shows a lack of re- spect for the law and is productive of more than s little discomfort to individuals who are not enamored of nerve-shocking tumult. And it should also be remembered that the fire- cracker, barmless though it may appear, con- tains within its ruddy casing the elements of conflagratory danger. The police may perhaps be evaded by confining the untimely pyrotech- nics to the woodshed, but the fire-department will probably be called out, and of the two evils the police-court is much the cheaper. But both may be avoided in most instances by @ suitable warning; the variety of warning be- ing adapted to the variety of boy. Tt was expected that some one would deny ‘the charge of racing made against the steam- boats Harry Randall and Wakefield but no one ‘who has any knowledge of the facts supposed for an instant thatany human being who was at all careful as to his reputation for veracity would declare that there was no collision between the boats. Four hundred of the Harry Randall's passenger's can testify that there was collision and are thankful that it Wrought no more harm than was done the paddle-boxes, If the Randall's officers are satisfied that the boats did not bump each other quite vigorously will they explain why some of the newspaper men on board were in- sidiously approached and asked to make no mention of the dangerous cecurrence? ——_~oo——— In view of the frequently asserted thasiastic supporters of base ball in this city may be interested in the application of com- bined arithmetic and commonplace prophesy to the situation which confronts that aggregation of flannel-clad athletes across whose manly chests the legend “Washington” appears. Caro- fal statisticians have computedas to the where- abouts on the record of the ball teams that played through the season of 1892-and that are still struggling for supremacy at one end or other of the line. With other cities we have but little to do; it is the home nine that de- mands attention. It seems that on June 24, 1892, Washington was in sixth place, and on the same date in this year our representatives had achieved eighth position. Now, as every- body knows, Washington was the tailender ‘when the season of 1892 closed—had undisputed ‘Possession of twelfth place--and if comparative figures amount to anything it would reach the sixteenth hole when the last of this year's games, 4s called on account of darkness were it not that there are but twelve teams, Testimony cor- roborative of this calculation is found in the fact that when the home team went on its western trip in 1892 tt was fifth, and that when it returned it was tenth; but that after playing the home series it rebounded to a good seventh. This time the District's balltossers were eighth when they started to take Horace Greeley's ad- vice, and if the deadly parallel works out as it ought, they will be sixteenth when they retarn, but after playing the home series will reach twelfth without much difficulty. Evidence as to their ability to accomplish this may be seen daily by any reader of baseball news. The tail- hold, and ss near the frayed-out a fly-scaring appendage as possible, 78 been good enough for Washington. Why should we murmur or repine? ——__++s___ ‘When we of the United States can “see our- selves as others see us” many national and in- dividual eccentricities will speedily vanish and our greatness be immediately enhanced. The candid opinions of those who represent friendly nations should be valued and especially when they relate to # question in which there is so much Public interest as the silver problem. States- men and politicians and business men will do well to read how the Mezican Financier dis- cusses that matter. In its June issue it says: “The many failures which, within the few weeks, have taken lace all over the U: States are usually at to's rine market,’ but that this is not the case is made evident by the fact that during the past four months the currency has been increased by the issue of $15,000,000 in treacury notes which have been paid out in the purchase of silver bullion by the government under the Sher- man silver-purchase act. Gold, it is true, has been going across the ocean to Europe, but the metal has been taken from the vaults of the national and not from the banks or the of the real reason for stringency is, then, to be looked for elsewhere than in the lack of suf- ficient currency, and it is plainly to be seen that the trouble lies in the lessened confi- dence of the banks and the money lenders in ‘the ability of borrowers to repay the loans demanded. And behind this distrustful sen- timent of the holders of money lies the fear that the country is coming to «silver basis snd. will soon ‘be in the same plight ap are India and this country.
