Through the efforts of Miss Scammel, director of music in the Central and East- ern High Schools, the boys will be given better opportunities of developing their voices. In past years the boys and girls have been taught together, but as the girls greatly outnumbered the boys, they received the greater part of the attention, and the boys were slighted. Last year at the Cen- tral Miss Scammel arranged a special class for boys, and the results were so encourag- ing she decided to form classes in both schools. AN the cadets, both officers and privates, will have received their uniforms by the eleventh. All of the companies are hard at work. Central. ‘The foot ball team will not play any more games until next Saturday, when they meet the eleven of the Maryland Agricultural College. The boys are preparing for the championship games, and do not care to play many outside elevens, as some of the boys might be laid off. The first game of the Central vs. Eastern series will be played in about three weeks. ‘The money which was taken in from the athletic luncheon recently held in the school for the benefit of the foot ball team has been used to good advantage. Sweat- ers, shoes and blue and white stockings have been purchased for the players. The “Sixteen Club” gave a dance Satur- ay night at Carroll Institute Hall. The members of the club are W. Somervell, Irving Norwood, H. Parsons, H. F. Barrow, A, Tisdell, J. White, W. Eynon, C. Murphy, W. Reinohl, R. Pettit, J. Pettit, J. Ridge- way, W. Brockett, C. Young, R. Rodgers and J. Grasty.

It is the intention of the members of sec- tion D 2 to have reunions by means of pic- nics or parties all through the year. A second year social club is being organ- ized, the first meeting of which will be held at the home of Miss Clements, 422 7th eet northeast, Friday night. Chester Graham has been appointed a corporal in Company G.

Association on Departed Members. = The meeting at the city hall Saturday afternoon, called by President Henry E. Davis of the District Bar Association to take action upon the death of Judge Arthur MacArthur, a retired member of the Dis- trict Supreme Court, and Messrs. Samuel Shellabarger, John D. McPherson and John F. Ennis, well-known members of the local bar, was one of the largest meetings of the Kind ever held in this city. Appro- priate resolutions were adopted, and ad- dresses eulogistic of the deceased judge and lawyers were made by those who knew them and their work. The District Su- preme Court will be asked to spread the resolutions upon the minutes of the court, and copies wiil be presented to the familie of the deceased. The meeting was called to order by Mr. Davis, and at his suggestion Mr. Meyer Lewin was appointed secretary of the meeting. Then Mr. Davis, having suggest- ed that a permanent chairman be chose Chief Justice Bingham was nominated by Mr. Jere M. Wilson and was unanimously selected. Chief Justice Bingham briefly stated the urpose of the meeting, when it was de- ded, upon the motion of Mr. Davis, that @ commitiee of nine be appointed by the chairman to draft resolutions expressive of the sentiments of the meeting respecting the death of Judge MacArthur, and a com- mittee of five each upon the death of Messrs. Shellabarger, McPherson and En- nis. The chairman appointed Justices Hagner, Cox, Bradley, McComas and Cole, and Messrs. ‘A. G. Riddle, Walter D. Day- e, Jere M.

Shellabarger, McPherson and Ennis. The MacArthur resolutions were presented to the meeting by Mr. Justice Hagner in a few words, in which he paid the memory ef the deceased judge a glowing tribute, both 2s a man and judge. The resolutions were read by Mr. Worthington, who moved their adoption, a motion seconded by Mr. Campbell Carrington in a brief but truly eloquent address. Mr. Perry presented the Shellabarger resolution, and paid tribute to the dead lawyer's memory in an earnest address, in wh. he referred to Judge Shel- labarger as having been the greatest lawyer he had ever met. Mr. Phillips and Judge I. G. Kimball also feelingly + .>*%e in his memory. Mr. Carlisle presented the Mc- Pherson resolution, and Mr. Hackett those referring to Mr. Ennis, in feeling terms, Mr. Simeon Wolf and Mr. F. H.

To the Editor of The Evening Star: Now that the question of dismissals for excessive partisanship is being discussed, I want to suggest a permanent remedy for all such troubles. It is simply to so amend the civil service law as to provide that when persons ac- cept an appointment in the government service, the appointees shall neither take part in politics, nor vote at elections 80 long as they retain their position in the service. At first sight this may strike one as ob- jectionable on the ground that it inter- feres with the right of citizenship; but in answer to that it Is the fact that it is op- ticnal with all. If any one is willing to give up his right to participate in politics and elections for the sake of a permanent position in the service of the government, surely others can have no ground for ob- jection. Such persons would simply occupy the same position that citizens do who leave the states to reside permanently in the District of Columbia, under the present conditions existing here. One of the prin- cipal arguments in favor of the adoption of the civil service law when it was pro- posed was to prevent the undue influence in politics of those holding government positions, and their neglect of their official duties. This remedy would completely pre- vent both those evils; and if there was any force or truth in the above reasons then there is the same now. Besides, what sense is there in the clerks spending the time and money in going home to register and to vote? If, as is claimed, the appoint- ments are substantially equal between the two political parties, the votes of the one set of clerks simply offset those of the other set or party, and, therefore, cannot change or affect the result. It happens one time in a thousand that a single vote, or a very few votes, decides the election of a member, and in such cases the votes of clerks may affect the result, but taken as a whole, their vote is so infinitesimal as to practically be of no account. Then again, the practice of going home to vote works hardship on those who reside in the distant states. Clerks in the nearby states can go at a small expense, but those residing in the distant states cannot, and consequently many of these, especially those having families to support, feel that they cannot afford it, and, therefore, do not go, and hence the practice operates un- equally in the different states. Hundreds of applications were made to the politi- cal clubs and the congressional commit- tees durirg the recent canvass by em- ployes for assistance in going home to vote, because, as they sald, they were not able to pay the expense. The proposed amendment would work a relief to all such, and equally so _to those who were able to go. In the British civil service, from which ours was substantially copied, it is a well settled rule that those holding positions in the service shall not in any manner participate in politics; and the De- partment of Justice of the ited States adopted substantially that position in the recent campaign. Why not, then, amend the law as above suggested, and put an end at once to all the troubles arising from the present prac- tice? It strines me that it would be a good thing for all concerned, and would work hardship to no one. OBSERVER. —>—__ Biological Society. At the mecting of the Biological Society of Washington at the Cosmos Club Satur- day evening appropriate resolutions on the death of Dr. G. Brown Goode were read and referred to the committee in charge of the arrangements for the memorial meeting. Mr. Gardiner G. Hubbard, pres- ident of the National Geographic Society, has been chosen as chairman of the com- mittee, and empowered to select his asso- clate members. —-___ In the Churches. Hamline M. E. Church held an old folks’ service yesterday, and notwithstanding the unfavorable weather, a number of the aged members of the congregation ventured out and listened to an appropriate sermen de- livered by the pastor, Rev. Dr. Stricklen. A love feast was held at 3 o'clock. In the evening a sermon preparatory to a series of revival services was preached. Rev. Dr. Canter, pastor of the Mount Vernon M. E. Church, addressed the meet- ing for men held in the Young Men’s Chris- tian Association yesterday afternoon. The Anti-Saloon League entered yester- day yn its fall and winter campaign by holding two services in the churches. The first was in the afternoon in the First Con- gregational Church, Rev. Dr. Luther B. Wilson meking the principal address. Mr. James L. Ewin, president of the league, read some statistics showing that the num- ber of liquor licenses in the District had been greatly reduced. An evening meeting was held in the Dumbarton Avenue M. E. Church, addresses being made by A. N. Canfield, ex-Governor Goodell of New Hampshire and Mr. Andrew Wilson.

Skins On Fire Ditech Atbtney Birony Says They Will Be Called 800y, for Trial, There Are Nearly , Fifty Indictments and: They Will All: Be Vigor- ously: Prasecuted. ‘District Attorney Bimey- said today that the eases known asithe “oleomargarine cases” would be ‘brought up for trial in the -Criminal Court: during the present month and prosecuted vigorously. He said that they would shave been called before this, but for the ‘inability of Special Agent Bowen of the internal revenue bureau, who 1s an important witness in many of the cases, to be present. This announcement will be exceedingly gratifying to the many people who have been made the victims of the system existing here by which imita- tion butter was sold for the genuine ar- ticle at prices asked for real butter, and will also be pleasant to law-abiding citi- zens generally. There has been consider- able apprehension felt about the course to be pursued in regard to these prosecutions, as the rumor was circulated, and had ev- ery appearance of being well founded, that powerful individuals ergaged in the oleo- margarine traffic had managed to prevail upon the Treasury Department to com- promise the cases for a money considera- tion. The Evening Star some time ago referred to the statement that the com- missioner of internal revenue had been proffered $4,500 in fines to withdraw the prosecutions of the parties now under in- dictment in the District of Columbia for violating the oleomargarine laws, and who number altogether forty-six persons. The failure of this effort, it is now said upon ex- cellent authority, spurred those who are desirous of having the cases dropped to still greater energy, and the amount offer- ed to the treasury authorities was in- creased, so it is stated, to $15,000. Even this immense sum was not sufficient to bring about the eagerly wanted compro- mise, and the cases accordingly will be pushed to a conclusion. As before stated, there are forty-six in- dictments pending against parties charged with violating the oleomargarine laws, for- ty-five of which are against small dealers who are alleged to have sold the oleo- margarine for butter, the other being a case which is regarded as of great im- portance, in which Wilkins & Company, wholesale dealers, are charged with hav- ing supplied the boys’ reform school with imitation butter under a contract calling for the delivery of the genuine article. All the cases are important, and their i will be of great interest to the pub- ics AGAINST THE SALOON. A Meeting to Urge People Not to In- dorse Liquor Licenses. There was a limited attendance at the Anti-saloon League mass meeting at the First Congregational Church yesterday af- ternoon. Rev. L. B. Wilson, presiding elder of the Methodist Episcopal Church for the Washington district, presided, and made an address, attacking the saloon power. Miss Frank Byram directed the music. Miss Altschu sang a solo. Mr. Wilson’s address was vigorous. “There is not an evil in the whole cata- logue of crime,” he said, “which could not be committed in the saloon. The people should all stone it until the last one is closed and dead. It bears the same rela- tfon to society that the goring ox bore to the ancients, and it should be treated in the same way—stoned to death. This is in all the churches to be a week of prayer ‘for young men,’ and I know no better way to Save the young men of this land than to pray for the closing of the saloon. Every man and woman who does not work against the salcon now will weep in the near tuture for neglecting their duty; so let every man or woman who has signed a liquor license application withdraw their names.” The object of the meeting was to urge people to refuse to sanction the saloon by withdrawing their names from the applica- tions of all the dealers who are now wait- ing for their new licenses. Another meet- ing will be held for the same purpose next Sunday afternoon at Hamline Church, 9th and P streets northwest. —_ JOINT COMMITTEE FORMED.
