14 THE EVENING STAR, FRIDAY, DECEMBER: 13, 1895—SIXTEEN . PAGES. AIDING THE POOR The Annual Report of the Super- intendent of Charities, eee WORK-OF THE PAST YEAR aa Oe Hospital Service Inadequate in Time of Emergency. AID FOR RESIDENTS ‘The arnual report of the superintendent of charities, a synopsis of which was printed in The Star, is one of the most ccmplete reports ever issued by the office. It contains an exhaustive account of the iffereit charitable institutions, all of Which are weli classified, with location and date of organization. Referring to the dif- ferent important points covered, the report says: ‘The sums reported as unexpended bal- ances of appropriations for the several dis- tributing agencies were allotted to them respectively for future charitable use. Of the balance remaining in the hands of the treasurer of the central relief committee, $1,000, or so much thereof as required, was placed at the disposal of the committee on plans of agricultural relief, the operations of which will be hereinafter described. The relief street work, in removal of snow and ice, at the expenditure of $5,001, was con- dveted under the general supervision of Major McKenzie, superintendent of the street-cleaning department. Should there be occasion for such work in the future the relief-work gangs should be placed under the supervision of experienced employes of the street-cleaning contractor, who are re- tained during winter months at reduced pay. Their services could be secured at a ccst not greater than $1 per day each, and the excessive expenditure for sufervision be thereby avoided. Relict of Residents. “Other experienced superintendents of outdoor work could be utilized from the Washington Asylum force, with further effect in making the relief money avatlable for the greatest possible number of the most needy class. There should also be more careful avoidance of hasty and indiscrim- irate hiring than was practicable under the circumstances attending last winter's oper- ations, so that crowds of strangers might not be attracted to the city, but relief con- fined fo worthy residents. “The reports of the various organizations and the experience of last winter confirm my conclusion of last year, that existing charitable associations, with which Wash- ington is so liberally supplied, should con- tinue to be utilized as distributing agencies by any central collecting and managing authority, and that, as to distribution, the efforts of the latter should be chiefly di- rected to the prevention of duplication in relief and the detection of imposture. Un- der the conditions that obtain in the Dis- trict of Columbia no cne method or sort of aid will suffice for all cases. In order that relief may be general and impartial it must be given in a variety of ways suited to various classes of applicants. Where work for the able-bodied can be secured it should by all means be preferred; but it must al- Ways be born in mind that those in great- est distress are untit for hard labor, while very many of them are unable to engage efficiently even in the lighter indoor occu- pation: “Special characteristics of Washington d population render peculiarly nece: discrimination and variety in tem- porary _ Above all it is requisite to avold : nything tending to the creation of a pauper class, shiftless during the working Season through reliance on charitable sup- pert in winter time. Municipal Hospital Service. “As shown by the report of the sanitary ofticer to the superintendent of the metro- politan police, public patients were sent to hospitals by that branch of the District service during the late fiscal year as fol- lows: Freedman’s Hospital, 936; Providence spital, S48 pital of the Washington Tym, 302, eld Hospital, Emer- gency Hospital, 121; Homeopathic Hospital, 97; Columbia Hospital, 66; Children’s Hos- pital, 31, apd 5 to the Sibley Hospital. “Many patients in maternity cases are sent to Columbia and other hospitals from dispensartes. The Children’s Hospital re- ceives through the same channel, as weil as from child-caring asylums. ‘Accident cases are brought to the Emergency Hos- pital by its own ambulance service, and other medical establishments accept in- Mates coming by transportation, public or private, other than that of the sanitary office. Hence, it is necessary to refer to the report of the several hospitals and to the tabulation of their statistics in order to accurately measure their services to the community. Nevertheless, making -allow- ance for these circumstances, the sanitary oflicer’s reports afford a fair indication of the number of free public patients cared for by the general hospitals of the District, respectively, in return for the appropria- tions made for their maintenance. rhe figures given above show a total of 1 cases sent to hospital by the sanitary officer during the fiscal year ended June 30, 1 During the succeeding quarter, the months of July, August and September, 1 » were sent to the hospitals in the Same manner 1,102 patients, or at the Tate of 4,408 cases a year. He Facilities Needed “The number exceeds that recorded during any previous quar and the fact shows that, even when no serious epidemic pre- vails, the hospital accommodations of Washington are no more than adequate to the demands upen them. During the sum- mer and fail at all places of medical refuge the usual accommodations were fully occu- Pied, and it was necessary to improvise ad- ditional ones in order to meet the urgent demand for treatment of public patient ‘There were also a sufticient uumber of ¢ of the minor infectious dis PS treated make-shift isolation in homes and itnpro- vised isolated quarters furnished by the medical charities to further enforce the ne- cessity of tinal and sufficient action upon this long-postponed but vital subject. Con- cerning this most pressing public want, the Commissioners, Congtess and the public are already so fully informed that further rec ommendation on my part for legislative action would be superfluous. Something has Jeen dene in the course of current ad- ministration toward mitigating the gvil and providing partial remedy in various ways, and such action will be continued to be taken at e opportunity pending the re- moval of legal obstacles or further legis! tion to obviate or overpass them. Und such circumstances it does not seem nec sary to_add to the statements made on pages 27 to 32 of my report of last year. The erection of the smallpox hospital un- der the direction of the health officer is one gratifying step in the work of guarding the District against plague. “Designed improvements in the adminis- trative facilities of existing hospitals are adequately described in the letters Olfice to the Distr t et Commissioners in ex- planation of the estimates which are here- Inbefore cited at length. In the medical branch, as well as in other lines of char- {table and correctional work, the present need of the District of Columbia ts for the improvement in and perfection of estab- lishments already in operatio ized by law, and not tor the creation of new ones. The only exceptions to this gen- avement known te me are thi ( forth in this report and already =red by Congress. Med i Lay Bon “There is apparent need In medical es- tabliskments having laymen as members of or autho: boards of direction for a more distinct line of demarcation betweeen medical and gen- eral administrative control. As a rule, pro- fessional questions should be determ by professional men, and the medical should settle the incumbencies of medical positi d the distribution of prote sional duties between them.

They are matters for admin- istrative remedy by constant prudence and mutual consideration among those devoted to the common aim of humanitarian ser- vice, rather than for legisiation subversive of existing methods, and entailing very great increase of public burdens. The in- fluence of the superintendent of charities, ty advice and ‘general direction,’ should continue to be exercised to promote har- mony and efficiency of management through observance of the proper distinction be- Pee the various branches of co-operative effort. Improve Existing Institutions. “Asa rule, the national capital District is adequately furnished by public provision and private benevolence with agencies for the care, training and cure of unfortunates. It remains to continue to so administer those benevolent foundations as to utilize them to the full, with enterprise, but with economy. With the comparatively inex- pensive, but still extensive improvements that have been suggested, there will be no community in this country, if anywhere, better equipped relatively to its proportion and characteristics of location and popula- ticn than the District of Columbia. Another year’s experience in the methods that have been persistently, if undemonstratively, pursued since the superintendency of char- ities wag instituted should go very far to- ward acMieving this result and make plain to all the- wisdom of the system of strict official supervision over the variety of agencies for dealing with many kinds of afflictions that befall ‘all sorts and condi- tions of men’ in a metropolitan commun- ity. Already comparison may be well chal- lenged with any American city and suburbs of equal size in the economy, variety ana extent vf relief afforded, and in the marked decrease, if not entiré disappearance, of duplication of chsritable work or expend- iture, of interference of institutions and as- sociations each with the other, and misap- plication of effort or expenditure, which, under the act of August 6, 1800, it is the duty of the superintendent of charities to combat and prevent. It is submitted that in no better way than through the ‘gen- eral direction’ of the superintendent over the expenditures and operations of benevo- lent organizations, in constant co-operation with and aided by the extensive power and control of the Commissioners over civic administration and expenditure, could so much have been.accomplished in so short a time, with so assured a prospect of still further benefit from persevering effort in the maragement of the simple, inexpensiv and effective machinery provided by law. —>—— NOW A SALVATION ARMY OFFICER, A German Surgeon Who Has Had an Interesting Career. The success of the Bjorksten meetings Sunday before last has encovraged Adju- tant Isabel Wood of the Salvation Army to take Masonic Temple again for next Sunday afterncon and evening, when Dr. Frederick Nice, editor of the German War Cry in New Yerk city and well known here for his fine violin playing and eloquent speaking and singing, will be present. Dr. Nice has made several visits to Washing- ton and was also one of the attractiens at the meetings which the Salvation Army held at Washington Grove Camp iast sum- mer, so that he has a large number of friends here. He will arrive Saturday af- ternoon and will take part in the regular meztings at the Salvation Army Hall, 950 Pennsylvania avenue, Saturday evening and Sunday morning, as well as in the special meetings at Masonic Temple Sunday after- noon and evening. Adjutant Isabel Wood will conduct all the meetings and Cs Eva Dunlap will assist in the singng and pla; ig. The members of the Washing- ton Auxiliary League will also help in the mesting, as well as the soldicis of the Washington corps. Dr. Nice is the son of a Lujheran clergyman of an ar German family, and after an education was graduated at the med school of the University of Berlin, went into the German army as a surgeon in one of the crack regiments, but hi ing quarreled with his colonel he obliged to leave Germany and came, four ears ago, to New York city, where discouragement and ppoibtment —in- creased his habit of drinking, so that at last he was brought down to extreme pov- erty and ms a spite of and attaiuments, including his hg! tivated musical talent. He was aimost a tramp when he heard the musie of the Salvation Army and wandered o the Bowery corps two years ago, where he was converied and began a new Ife. No one weuld know now that he had ever been in a miserable condition if he did not tell the story himself for the help of other men. Besides editing the Germaa War Cr which has gre: improved under his management, he speaks, and sings, and plays in special army meet-ngs all Bi the country, with great succe Dr. has had tempting offers to j the ymphony orchestras of New aston, and also to eugage in the of his profession of medicine, prac- but he prefers to remain an oificer in the Salva- tion Army. _ HANDY WITH THEIR GUN A Recherche Affair Between Dead- wood Jack and Montana Jim. from the Detroit Free Press. : Deadwood Jack was no scholar, but he insisted that he was a gentleman. The same was the case with Montana Jim. Therefore when we learned that Jack had come over to Custer City to “have It out” with Jim, we felt assured that it would’ be a genteel affair from start to finish. Jack had put up at the Last Chance saloon, written his name on the ace of spades, and sent a messenger over to the Bald Eagle's Roost to say to Jim: . “Compliments of Deadwood Jack, and he hopes you have no engagement to prevent your meeting him on the public square this evening to settle the little misunderstand- ing that has existed for several months.” And Jim wrote his name on the ace of clubs and instructed the messenger to say: “Compliments of Montana Jim, and he assures D. J. that it will afford him the ut- pleasure to shoot at him at exacuy 7 o'clock this evening at the place men- tioned.” Each man was about town during the afternoon, and they encountered each other a dozen times. On every occasion each raised his hat and bowed and expressed the hope that the other was well and happy. At 6 o'clock each retired to his headquarters and carefully cleaned and loaded his two guns. There was no br ging or boasting—no posing for effect. Both were game men and both dead shots, and the chances were even up between them. No one knew the cause of the trouble, and neither man entered into any explanation. AUCTION SALES OF REAL ESTA‘ iy ke. Today.

They approached within thirty feet of each other and bowed, and then Rocky Mountain Joe gave the word. Four hands dropped down—four revolvers were jerked from their holsters, and the first two shots made but one report. Then there was a pop! pop! pop! faster than one could count, and of a sudden both men went down. It was Deadwood Jack who slowly reached his feet a moment later. He had pulled down his gun to fire when the referee held up his hand and said: “That'll do, Jack—he’s passed in!” Montana Jim had four bullets in him— Deadwood Jack two. The latter stood there, with the blood dripping from his hip and shoulder, as the crowd closed in, and then observed:* “Gentlemen, let the funeral be conducted in a dignified, genteel fashion, and then send in the bill by a gentleman.” ——+e- Baron Dunleath Dead. Baron Dunleath (John Mulholland, LL.D.) is dead, at the age of seventy-seven years. He was a member of the British parliament from 1874 to 1885. AUCTIO ___FULURE Days. = C. G.
