10 THE EVENING STAR. MONDAY, JULY 5, 1897-12 PAGES. THE NEW LIBRARIAN Applications Pour In for the Places at His Disposal. NEW REGISTER OF COPYRIGHTS Functions of the Superintendent of the Building. = ——— PROVISIONS OF LAW = The new librarian of Congress is grad- ually settling cown into the routine of his oflice, which for the present consists largely in handling matters connected with the patronage at his disposal. He receives many applications for appointment, made in person and by and through senators and representatives. The office 6f register of cepyrights will ave to be filled soon, as the copyright bureau has been without a head since Juiy 1. 1 re numerous ap- plications for the appointment, and Mr. Young has been giving them close consid- eration. Applications for Places. Librarian Yourg’s mail is enormous in volume and increasing daily. It consists principally of applications for appointments in the new library. From the tenor of some of the letters it would seem that the impression prevails throughout the country that there are innumerab:e posi- in the new library to be filled and love of boc s and literature is all that is necessary to fit any one for filling the places. It is possible the idea has ob- tained among the people that the clerical force necessary to equ to be proper © to the mammoth size of the buildirg. Such an idea is erroneous. As a matter of fact, there are only 107 tions © Congressional Libt two of them are alre.dy filled, leav- sixty-five aprointments to be made. only really clerical effi are in the copywright department, thirty in number, of these twenty-four are filled.

THE C: Boys Treated at the Emergency Hos- pitz! for the Burns It Caused. A nurber of accidents resulting from the firing of cannon crackers were reported to- @ay at the Emergency Hospital. Guy Luddington, aged fifteen years, of Iowa, employed as a messenger at the Capitol, was badly burned about the face and right hand by the premature explosion of one of the big crackers. Perry Fletcher, aged nine years, of No. 201 22d street northwest; Clarence Heintz- man, aged ten years, of 38 2Ist street northwest, and Albert Hazelton, aged fif- teen years, of No. 1100 Park place, navy yard, was each badly burned about the legs from a similar cause. After receiving the necessary treatment from members of the house staff each went to his home. es PROBABLY FATAL. INJURY Condition of R. L. Ford Reported to Be Very Serious. The condition of Mr. R. L. Ford, a travel- ing salesman, living at No. 2515 Portner place, who was badly injured while bath- ing, yesterday, at Bay Ridge, was very serious at a late hour today, and fears were entertained at the Emergency Hos- pital, to which he had been taken, that he would not survive more than a few hours longer. He has been almost completely paralyzed from his chest down. Mr. Ford yesterday, in company with some friends, went to Bay Ridge, and soon after reaching there decided to take a bath in the waters of the bay. Unfortunately, at the place into which he plunged the water was not more than two feet deep, and his head aaa shoulders struck the bottom with force. a result his back was wrenched in a manner as to injure the spinal cord. Mr. Ford at once sank, but some friends went to his assistance and raised him to the surface. He was brought back to Washington as soon as possible. Owing to the peculiar nature of the injuries but little relief could be given him. ~— THE CARE OF BUILDI S. Lack of System in Inspection and apervision. There is a sad lack of system in the care and preservation of the government bulid- ings in this city. No comprehensive plan exists for a constant inspection by men competent to judge of mensures that should be taken for their care. Most of the build- ings have superintendents, and in some of them there is no lack of painstaking ef- fort to do everything that would tend to the preservation of the structures. But the care of the bvilding is so apportioned amorg miny different people that there is not much certainty from administration to administration that everything necessary will be done. An example of this condition exists at the pensicn office building. The interior of t structure has, since its construc- tion, been looked after pretty carefully so far as the work of painting is concerned But although the building was put up fifteen years ago it is strange that the woodwork about the windcws exposed to the weather has not been repainted. ‘The original coat of paint has worn off and the wood is exposed. No landlord would allow property to approach this condition, in- the rottening effect of the weather lilapidation generally, if he were at wise in caring for his worldly goods. ce the present administration has taken sion of the pension office building a rable amount of work looking to the improvement of that structure has been After a little while the window will receive a coat of paint. But existence of such a condition shows inspection of the the need of a more careful all the government buildings in order that they might be cared for This whcle question came up under an- other phase of neglect at the time of the Ford's Theater disaster, when it was shown that there was a sad lack of efficiency in the knowledge of construction by men who had power to tamper with the buildings of he governmert. In a less degree the same thing was shown at the goyernment printing office. The lack of a uniform care of public build- ings which eah be seen by any one who uses his eyes about this city has again sug- gested to officials the desirability for plac- ing responsibility for such werk in a man- ner that would insure the proper care to the real estate of the government, which has been provided at so great an expense. From time to time every government buiid- ing is uncer the supervision of the most competent men, but there are nearly al- ways periods when the opposite condition ex- and during these periods more or less injury is done to the handsome structures. eae ere = PENSION OFFICE FLAG. properly. Visitors Try to Guess Its Size, Come Far From It. The fact that apparent size is but a mat- ter of comparison is constantly being dem- onstrated to visitors to the pension office building. In the center of the court of that building, directly over the fountain, is an American flag. It is a common thirg when this flag is being viewed by visitors for employes of the building to ask them to guess its size. The most common answer is that it is about 12 by 20 feet. To a casual observer it looks no larger. The fact is, it is wider than most large building lots in this and as long as many of them. The of the stars and stripes of which it is composed is amply sufficient for the con- but struction of a neat cottage, with flower gardens about it. The exact size of the flag is by 50 feet, and it ts the largest example of the stars and stripes in this city, and it is douotful if a larger one ex- ists anywhere in the world. The flag was bought by the government a little over a year and put in place on Flag which was made memorable by approp ceremonies which took place in the pen- sion office building, and in which all the higher officials of the bureau took part. It is made of the very best bunting, and is not Iikely to soon wear out, as there is seldom the least breeze to make it flutter. —s Spread of Yellow Fever. The marine hospital bureau has issued the following statement: : “Yellow fever is reported at Vera Cruz, Mexico, and is reported to be epidemic at Panama, Colombia. A case of plague ar- rived at Nagasaki, Japan, from Formosa, June 4, and the authorities have quaran- | Uned against Swatow, Foochow and Amoy, as well as Formosan ports. Later informa. tion, June 12, states that two cases of plague have occcurred at Nagasaki quar- antine, derived from the above case, land- ed June 4. Eighteen to twenty cases of | plague occur at Macao, China, daily, and | no restrictions are placed on’ intercourse | | between Macao or Canton and Hong Kong. Plague also exists at Jedda, seaport of Mecca.” ‘This morning, about 7:30 o'clock, a col- | ored boy named Hobert Scroble, who lives at No. 1214 Maryland avenue’ northeast, was riding a mule, when the noise of a firecracker caused the mule to come to a sudden stop. The boy kept cn and landed | on the concrete pavement with such fore that he was unable to resume his journey. Dr. Stewart attended the lad, and he was afterward taken home in the patrol wagon. THEY WERE NOT PATRIOTS] An Army Experiment. Participants in Parade Reviewed by Judge Kimball Today. © A Typical Holiday Aggregation of U: fortunates—Bandaged Heads and Torn Garments in Evidence. The only compulsory parade today was that which passed in review before Judge Kimball In the Police Court. It could hard- ly be classed as patriotic, for the partici- pants were deprived of their liberty. What the turnout lacked In patriotism, however, was supplied in numbers, for when Judge Kimball ascended the reviewing stand the dock was crowded. It was the typical holiday aggregation of prisoners,with bandaged heads and torn gar- ments very much in evidence. S(range to say, however, “4th of July” cases were not at all numerous, the charges for th> most Part comprising the usual run of “vags” and “disorderlies.” The day was by no means one of rest and recreation for the court officials, they being called upon to perform more onerous duties than is vsu- ally the case. Among the first to reach the front was a couple of disorderlies, Ed Bowen and Mar- tha Payne. They were arraigned for loud and boisterous talking, cursing and swear- ing. Lydia R. Payne, the mother of the girl, took the stand as complaining wit- ness. “Ed Bowen was calling on my gal, Mat- thay, Saturday night,” said the mother, “when Jim Ringo came to the house. Jim was surprised to see Ed, and looked at him kinder hard. ‘What you sizing me up for?” asked Ed, and with that he beat Jim aw- ful. Ed then went outside and wouldn’t let Jim get out.” “What did the girl do?” asked the court. ‘She cussed me fearful.” replicd the mother. * “Did she use the name of God?” Judge Kimbell then inquired. “Yas, sir,” declared Mrs. Payne, with emphasis, “she use wuss than Gawd’s name, she did.” i “I didn’t do nothing the sort,” stated Martha, taking the stand. “My own dear father pays the rent of that house, and my mother was trying to put me out.’ ‘Its @ case of malice,” pleaded Ed; that’s all it is. a You didn’t do anything at all?” the court asked. “No, sir.” “Fifteen days each.” Blind, but Drank. ‘The hearing of the charge against Samuel Carter developed a bad case of drurk. The testimony showed that while intoxicated yesterday Samuel was very disorderly. He is an inmate of the Soldfers’ Home, but is on furlough for the purpose of having his eyes treated. ‘As the man is blind,” said the police- man, “I hope your henor will re‘ease him on his personal bonds.” His honor complied with the request, af- ter lecturing Samuel in no mild manner on the evils of strong drink. Light Battery Captured. “Were this an ordinary case I would not have “brought it i court,” remarked Prosecuting Attorney Pugh as Tasker C. Johnson was charged with violating the police regulations, by discharging 2 can- non in the street. The weapon, however, was loaded.” It seems that Tasker, in the guise of an artilleryman, took possession of a com- manding eminence in Glick’s alley, and there established a light battery. He con- trolled a spacious sweep of Gth street, and discharged veritable hot shot at intervals of less than a minute. All would have been well, perhaps, had not Tasker mistaken Thomas Randall, a peaceable citizen of the United States, for the enemy, and used him for a target. After some tall dancing and doging, Randall was forced to retreat. He procured reinforcements in the person of Policeman Howard, who ied a rush into Fort Glick and captured the light battery, and, incidentally, Artilleryman 7 : “My cannon wasn't 1," declared Tasker to Judge Kimball. ‘The shot was fired by little Willie Gli “And I submit, your honor,” added Attor- ney Peyton, who appeared for the defend- ant, “that the shot wouldn't carry across the street, as has been testified. “If you'd been where I was, you'd thought It would carry all right,” remark- ed Randall, rubbing his right knee in a suggestive manrer. “Ten dollars fine,” ruled the court. >_-— SUMMER LIFE AT WARRENTON. ints to a Memorable jcason, of The Bvening Star. WARRENTON, Va., July 5, 1807. Warrenton is fast assuming {ts usual summer animation, end cverything points to a season that will rival the White Sul- phur in gaiety and sport. ‘The’ German Club will inaugurate the social campaign next Friday night, when it will give the first of its series of cotillions. The Hunt Club will have a two-day race mecting in August, which will be more of a “cross country” affair than in fcrmer years, in- asmuch as jumping contests and steeple- chasing have become so popular. Mr. Mills of Washington has leased the Warren Green Hotel. The bearding house keepers have all the applications they can conveniently consider and the — private homes wili have many charming house parties of congenial friends an@ relatives, who contribute so much to the attractive- ness of the social life of the place. Among recent arrivals from Washington are Mr. Norborne Robinson, Colonel- Joseph A. Rice, Mr. A. M. Payne, assistant doorkeeper of the Senate; Dr. Ogden and wife, P. Her- ring, chief of engireers of the navy, with Lis family; Colonel John 8. Mosby, Mr. Chas. H. Rodgers. A dramatic performance was given here Saturday evening by a troup calling them- selves ‘The Wanderers,” the personnel of which is made up of ladles and gentlemen prominent in amateur theatricals, both in Washington and Warrenton. It was for the benefit of the new Open Air Club ot this place, which will be a popular ren- dezvous for the lovers of athletics this summer. The curtain raiser was “Box and Cox," in which Mrs. Harrison Nesbit of Washington was Mrs. Bouncer. Messrs. Appleton and Sinclair were the merry Box and Cox. Mr. Mills Thompson of Washington then captured the house with a darkey dialect Everything P Special Correspond song and his famous umbrella dance. Mr. Frank Mullan, a of Washington, ap- peared in the audience so cleverly dis- guised that no one knew him, and at first mistook him for a peddler, who had come in the hall to witness the performance. When he ascended the stage, and in ges- ture and dialect entered in a hat bargain with the darkey, the audience was sur- prised and amused alike. ‘The chief fea- ture of the evening was a piece calied “Which is Which,” in which Mr. Mullan played the leading rele. Mr. Morven Thompson of Washington, Miss Spillman, Capt. Fred. Cotton and the Misses Barry of Warrenton also took part. Capt. Cotton closed the entertainment with a number of vocal selections, among which was a fox- hunting song and a graphic description of an English steeplechase. ——__— REAL BLUE GRASS. Not Found in Kentucky, but Down in the Apache Country. One of the standing jokes of the blue grass region is the fact that “blue grass” fs green. People who visit the famous rich grazing country found in Kentucky are often the subject for jokes when they want the “blue grass” pointed out. But there is a blue grass, a sample of which can be found growing at the Department of Agri- culture, which Is as blue as a cloudless sky on a summer day. It is a native of the Apache country. It can be found all through New Mexico and in some of the adjoining states. It is known as the Apache blue grass, It has a broad spear and grows a couple of feet in height. A field covered with it looks lke a lake in which has been dumped a barrel of indigo. It is said to be one of the most beautiful sights of the southwest to view great flelis of this blue grass, dotted here and there with flowers. Especial attention has been paid to the cultivation of a patch of thi grass at the Department of Agriculture, where it grows luxuriantly, and is one of the interesting sights to all visitors to the | grounds of that department.

It is quite generifily known to athletes themselves that Postamp: Cereal Food Coffee adds, in a marked degree, to‘the fower of any man for continuous physical exertion, the heart, lungs and nerves working vastly bptter than where ordinary coffee has "been used. e reason for this is that Postum is made of certhin’ parts of cereals, skill- fully selected and scientifically prepared. Certain Ingredients of food are needed by the human body to supply the peculiar gray substance that should Mill every nerve cell in the body. This cannot be od- tained from drugs, but must come from food. Postum Cereal Food Coffee is made from these ele ments. It looks like coffee and tastes much like it, but Is a distinct beverage, rich in food value and fanding on its own merit. Many people have had Postum poorly made. It te rich and delicious when boiled 15 minutes and served hot, with enough in the boiler to make It a very deep seal brown color.
