The question is: Can the Commissioners cancel an assessment after once made, even ff the property at the time of the application does not exist? It eppears they canrot: but before finally de- ciding the question the opinton of the at- torney for the District will be sought.” The big fire at Smith's planing mill, beside de- stroying a large amount of lumber, com- pletely demolished the mill. The assess- ment on the property had been levied, but the taxes had not been patd. Mr. Smith @sked that the assessment against the mill Property be canceled, as the same did not exist. The assessor for the District has ded that however just the-claim, his effice 1's without authority to cancel the assessment. The matter will be looked into by the attorney for the District. ———— ‘The life of a policeman in the great me- tropolis: its rewards and penalties: the openings it offers to young Americans: the brave deeds of policemen: the system of promotion—all these are set forth in an article written for the next volume of The Youth's Companton by Theodore Roosevelt, who, as the president of the police commis- Bioners, has done much to purge the force of the corruption that infected it under the baleful Tammany administration.

From what 1 am told, by ladies connected with temperance work in Ameri- ca, drunkenness ts also increasing here among women of all classes.” Miss Slack’s ideas about the increase of drunkenness among women in America seemed to have been formed from what she had been told by ladies in this country rather than from any observation or knowl- edge of her own. Miss Slack has been well received wherever she has gone in the United States, has had large meetings everywhere, and as a result of these meet- ings she has secured seven hundred signers of the temperance pledge. She will prob- ably return to this country next year and make a still more extended tour. Speaking of the work of the W. C. T. U. of the World, Miss Slack said: “One of the greatest good results we have realized in this international work is the bringing together of women of all countries on @ common plane and creating among them a fraternal feeling which had not ex- isted. Our work has brought the women of America and England into close touch. They worked for a common end, and dif- ferences of nationality sink into insignifi- cance.” FF epee The Mount L ccoamig cpm gr aiemay the “ ” he and who . *, arrangement: ing th: or run- 4 delayed the game several tines oe it was| S0Cial Pleasures: of the Capital | *y7snsements during the week for th after Particularly Among Women, Both im ible for the team to hear their sig- noon over the Conduit road course, t! ‘ Py ‘ pais when the bail was near the side lines.

Tilton of this city read her report as legislative secre- tary. To Urge Legislation. Mrs. Tilton recommended for the com- ing year that the union continue to urge constituents to petition legislators of the different statew and of the nation to pass such bills in favor of prohibition of the liquor traffic and in the interest of social purity as it can approve; that it urge con- stituents to write immediately to their Senators, asking them to vote for the bill to prohibit the sale of intoxicating liquors in the Capitol building; that it urge watch- fulness over the action of legislators .and readiness to aid all good work; that it urge all the women of the union to ask the aid of influential friends whose letters to the Marriage licenses have been issued to James R.
