Col. Wilson Will Improve and Strengthen the Trees in the Parks. Col. J. M. Wilson, in charge of public buildings and grounds, has given orders for the topping off and trimming of the soft maples in Franklin and other parks, in order to get rid of the dead wood and to strengthen and improve the trees for Rext season. The trees are trimmed in this way every year and the treatment proved most beneficial to them, malk- ing ‘them stronger and. more beautiful. ‘There are several well meaning but mis- guided “persons living near. these parks who view the trimming of these trees as @n act of vandalism and protest vigor- ously every year against such action on the part of the authorities.

Several officers testified that while they had never known Maas to be guilty of any disorder, he associated with low and disreputable characters, and they had not known him to engage in any business for a number of months. Taking the stand, Maas testified that he was an actor without an engagement for several months because of a throat affection. “I am a dialect comedian, your honor,” he explained, “and I haye no doubt that many in this court room have seen me form in years past.

Street Railroad Transfer Tickets. To the Eiitor of The Evening Star: Please inform me and the rest of the pub- Ic whether the street railroads have the right by law to limit the time of a transfer ticket or whether they are good until used, as has been decided a number of times, I believe, with regard to tickets on steam roads. Whether they have the right or not, { doubt very much whether it is good policy, for I know of cases where persons would’ ride if they could visit or shop in the neighborhood of junctions and then continue their rides, but not being allowed to do so, walk all the way, and I am sure there are more of such cases than of those | who pay two fares.

To the Editor of The Evening Star: ‘The word “standard” is used in the law to designate either weight or tineness and is applied to both gold and silver. The stat- ute of 18 says: “That all standard gold or sited for coinage,” etc.; that of ‘That the standard for both gold and silver coins shall hereafter be such, that of 1,000 parts by welght, 900 shall be of pure metal and 100 of alloy,” etc. In the Statute of 1873 occur thé expressions: itandard for both gold and silver coins, ‘Standards and weights,” ‘Legal stand- ard,” “Standard weights.” "The “Biand a (4878) is entitled: “An act to authorize the coinage of the standard silver dollai ete. The phrase, “standard silver dollars,” is used in the Sherman law (169). To say the United States uses the “gold standard” means that United States gold is without alloy, if it means anything. Gold to be of the legal standard must be only nine-tenths fine and of # prescribed weight. It is quite correct, however, to say that the standard gold dollar {s ‘the “unit of value,” for the law so declares it. LEX. Fire in a Paint Store.

One of her bundies dropped from her arms, but she did not fall. Her face flushed, her eyes began to dance in anger, and as she cast in- dignant glances at the conductor there was a good deal more in them than she dared to say. The bundle was restored to her arms, and with a toss of her head and an- other glance of disgust at the conductor she went her way. “That don’t bother me a particle,” sald the conductor of one of the Washington and Georgetown cars to a Star reporter. “It happens every day, and we get used to it. I, will be willing to wager half of my week's salary—though, perhaps, that {s not @ great sum, except to me—that a similar thing gecurs before we reach the end of the “What was the trouble?” “Why, like ite J 909 women in every 1,000, she got out of the car in the most un- comfortable and unsafe way that could be devised, and as a result came very near ing. It is only a wonder to me that there are not more women seriously in- jured by this mistake, which happens time after time every day. It is not because they do not know better, but because either they wish to be contrary or else never stop to think. The women in my own family are the only ones that I know of that get off and on a car in the proper manner, and I don’t believe they would if I did not ham- mer the right plan into thelr heads for breakfast and supper. You just watch the women that get off and it will not take you long to be convinced that what I say is almost true.” How They Do It. The conductor was correct. The reporter Saw several of them alight during his ride, and invariably they reached the ground by the same way. Carefully waiting until the car comes to a full stop, they arise, grasp the stanchion that is nearest the end of the car in the direction from which it has come, and, turning thelr backs to the front of the car, place their foot on the ground. If the car should start while they are facing the wrong direction it can hardly fail to throw them on their backs, thereby causing more or less injury. In just the opposite ratio to the number of women are the men who get on and off a street car improperly. They seem to know naturally that when they alight they should face the direction in which the car is moving, and then in case anything hap- pens they are prepared to catch themselves: by stepping forward, which is a natural thing, rather than tobe thrown backward, in which case one is almost certain to lose his footing. iit «gould, be, an excellent safeguard,” said’ the conductor, “if the raflroad com- pany, instead of having the sign ‘Avold danger by waiting until the car stops’ painted on the seats, should substitute ‘Avoid accidents by facing the front of the car when you step from the car.’ I under- stand that in some of the cars in Boston such a sign is used. The only remedy that I can see for this thing Is to have certain seats set apart for the women, so arranged that they will have their backs in the di- rection in whieh they are going, and then when they get off they will turn around as usual, and when they alight they will be facing the front of the car. a HER BIRTHDAY HONORED.
