Joe Howard in the New York Recorder. A little knowledge is a dangerous thing. Therefore, the more one learns the further away he gets from difficulty of an embar- rassing or serious nature. Washington is the capital of the nation. Everybody knows a little about it, everybody ought to know a great deal about it. There are various ways of learning, but It has always seemed to me that literal eyesight is about the best method for intelligent observers. One experience on the beunding billows, one awful sensation of mal-de-mer, one week's observation of men and brethren, women and sisteren, give one a greater insight into the mysteries and the miseries of a voyage at sea than a careful reading of all the books that were ever read or ever written. Just so with travel. All intelligent men and women know a litle something about Liverpool and its wonderful docks, about the railway trip from that commercial center to the great cosmopolitan center of finance, London. Every schoolboy can tell you in brief a history of the British capital, can rattle off a list of its noted bridges, its historic buildings, its city and its town, but, having made the trip, having seen the docks of Liverpool, having had an opportunity to watch the conduct of the government of- ficials, having experienced the delights ocular through the long stretch of gar- dening and of cultivation between Liver- pool and London, having spent if it were but a week in that famous old town, is it or is it not a fact that literal observation imparts in the briefest possible time an amount of understanding, a degree of knowledge, that no mere reading of books, no mere listening, however attentive, to lecturers and to friends could possibly give? Therefore, a week here. He must, indeed, be an ill-informed citi- zen who couldn't give a pretty clear de- scription of the city of Washington, its marvelous architectural developments, its beautiful drives, and its ordinarily enjoy: ble climate. I defy, however, the best educated, the best-informed individual, who knows of Washington and its pe- culiar excellencies by reading and by look- ing at pictures alone, to approximate the hither verge of intelligent understanding possessed by the humblest visitor who, with his own eyes, has taken in the ex- traordinary panorama here presented, and has seen literally the superb structures put up by the government at an expense of very many millions of dollars, has driven over the convanient pavements laid down by Mr. Shephard,has speeded through the adjacent ruralities, has visited the great cemeteries, has stood on the porch of General Lee's late residence and cast a longing eye over the picturesque beauty of the scene there disclosed. ‘The more in- telligent the observer, the more expert his detection of the beauties, the wider horizoned his appreciation of the magni- ficent distances, the surprising develop- ments made during the past twenty-five or thirty years. It really is the duty, as it is obviously the pleasure, of every Ameri- can citizen to visit the city of Washington, the capital of his nation, that he may be able to discuss intelligently, not alone the men who meet here, and the measures de- bated here, but the physical aspect, the material grandeurs, of this glorious city, which bids fair in time to be so noble in proportions, so charming in adornments, so attractive in its fascination, as to be worthy the immortal name it bears. ———$—_oo—_—_—_—. Wealthy Doctors, From the St. James Gazette. Do doctors make much money? They certainly do sometimes, as is shown by an appetizing list of the fortunes left by eminent medical meng during the last four years, which the Daily Telegraph recently published. One distinguished physician left no less than £344,000; two others over £200,- 000 each, and several approached or passed £100,000, But, after all, these are the few exceptions at the head of the profession, and do not help us to form an opinion to the average profits of medicine any more than the gains of Mr. Attorney General can be taken as a fair sample of the wealth to be obtained from the pursuit of the law. Is the ordinary medical student who is not likely to become a Clark or a Gull em- barked on a profession in which he has as good a chance of a decent competence xs in most others? We should be inclined to think so. Great fortunes are rare in medi- cine; but probably the number of those who make a moderate, “it sufficient, in- come out of it is larger than in most other pursuits in which educated men are ¢n- gaged. : TO ABOLISH A HABIT | How Railroad Companies Look After Olean- liness in Cars. Persistent Expectorators Are Ejected After Warning—One Company Will Use St iving Warning. A Star reporter this mornipg set out in quest of information as to the steps being taken by the management of the varioug street railroad companies in the District to abolish the practice of expectorating in cars, which ts at the present time general- ly indulged in. Vice President Dunlop of the Washington and Georgetown Railroad Company stated that several years ago his company adopted a rul> requiring all conductors to eject from the cars persons who persisted in expectorating. The offender, according to Mr. Dunlop, is first requested to stop; if he fails to do so a warning ts given that a repetition of the offense will result in his removal from the car, and if the repetition occurs the warning is fulfilled. Mr. Dunlop Went on to say that it 1s absolutely im- possible for a railroad company to put an end to the filthy habit, for the reason that the conductor cannot observe the actions of each passenger at all times. An in- stance was cited by the vice president, when it became necessary to eject a proml- nent man from a cable car for ruining a section of th: plush covering of the seat with tobacco juice. The efforts of conduc- tors to eject passengers, Mr. Dunlop also remarked, are hampered by the failure of policeme™: to co-operate as they should. On the Eckington Line. Mr. W. Kelsey Schoepf, vice president and general manager of the Eckington and Soldiers’ Home Railway Company, stated that the rule cited applies to hls company. If a passenger persists in expectorating, after being requested not to do so, the con- ductors are required to remove him. Fail- ure to do this results invariably in dit missal. Mr. Schoepf is of the opinion that the posting of signs to the effect that ex- pectorating is prohibited in the cars is un- profitable, as the regulation thus placed before the public eye ts, in nine cases out of ten, disregarded. Each Individual, says Mr. Schoepf, needs to be specially warned. Both Ms. Dunlop and Mr. Schoept ap- prove The Star's agitation of the matter, as they think it will result in more good join any other plan that might be pur- sued. The Mctropolitan Reforms. Among the reforms President Phillips of the Metropolitan company decided upon introducing when he sumed his new office were several providing for the in- creased cleanliness of the cars. He issued orders to have them swept out at each end of @ trip, and directed the employment of extra men to relieve the conductors of the duty of cleaning the window glasses. HM has for some time contemplated a radical attack upon the filthy habit some passen- gers have of soiling the floors and the clothing of other passengers by copious ex- pectoration, and at the meeting of the board of directors of the company to be held tomorrow night, he will ask authority to place in each car on the road a sign prohibiting the use of the floors for this purpose. —_— > - HOTEL HELP LIVE WELL, How the Large Hostelries Provide for Their Armies of Employes, From the New York Herald. After the modern hotel proprietor has made all possible arrangements for the comfort and care of his guests he finds himself confronted by the important prob- lem of providing for the army of help which he must employ. A large hotel has in its service 406 persons, who must be fed, and, in sume cases, sheltered for the night every day in the year. As the average “count” of the house does not fall below this figure, it will be seen that it requires @ great deal of ingenuity and some clever managing to p.ovide for so many employes without interfering in any way with the comfort of those who pay liberally for their entertainment. Arrangements are therefore made in first- class houses for two distinct and separate establishments. The city hotels do not fur- nish sleeping accommodations for the m: jority of the servants, who for the most part reside outside of the hotel, just as factory hands or clerks in stores, and go and come at regular hours. They must be fed, however, and they are entitled to from three to four meals a day, according to the department in which they are employed. In ail the large hotels special cooks are hired to prepare the food, the regular chefs hav- ing all they can do to look after the meals of the guests. At some hotels the entire service of two or three c.oks ind half a doi helpers are required for this purpose. The rooms in which the help eat are usually located in the basement, and, while they are severely plain in their -urnishings, they are always extremely clean and well kept. The tabli except those devoted to the lowest grade o: help, are covered with white cloths, which are not alowed to become filthy before being change. There is an erronecus popular impression that hotel employes are fed upon the leav- ings of the guests. Food from the tables goes direc‘ly into the swill barrel, without exception Sho'.d mere soup or meat or vegetables be co »ked for the guests than is needed to supply their wants such food is given to the servants, and not otherwise, In no business establishment in this coun- try are the !ines between the several grades of employes so sharply drawn as they are in the hotels. In houses of the first class there are four grades. The first includes the officers, who are divided into two classes, the one including the office cashier, head clerks, room clerks, the steward, bookkeepers, head waiter and housekeeper, and the other the assistant steward, res- teurant cashiers, stenographers, telegraph operato’, chief electrician, chief engineer and paniry girls. The second grade takes in the mechanics, and includes the carpenter, electricians, as- sistant engineers and receiving clerks. The third grade includes the waiters, chamber- maids, porters and hall boys. The fourth grade is made up of the firemen, laun- dresses, yardmn, scrubbers, dish hers and scullions. The bakers eat at a tabl spread in the bak» shop and the cooks at @ table set for them in the kitchen. tat BRAHMIN FANATICISM. A Devotee Who Made a Vow Never to Sit or Lic Down. From the Philadelphia Press. Woldeman Friedrich of Leipsic, who has lately made a prolonged tour of India, during which he has gathered vatuable data and made graphic sketches of the Nomads on and in the vicinity of the Cutch Steppes, says that in the harbor city of Mandri fanaticism reigns supreme. The Brahmin religion has here twice as many representatives as the Mohammedan. The Gisctples of one sect tle a gauze cloth around mouth and nose to prevent any insect or particle of dust from entering their sacred bodies. But most wonderful of all of Prof. Friedrich’s experiences was a saint he et in the neighborhood who had made a solemn vow never to sit or lie down for sleep or rest. Rao had refused to grant him a boon; therefore there was something in his life that kept him in disgrace with the divine powers and determined to propitiate his deity with his martyrdom of a lifelong abstinence from sitting or lying. In order to be able to keep his vow he has been compelled to construct a kind of hanging mat for his back and shoulders in which he hangs the livelong day, re- citing his penitential chants and prayers. Thus he sleeps at night and in this position he must also eat and drink, as he has grown too weak to either walk or stand. —_—— +ee-_-__ Splendid Celebration in Mexico.
