The remains of Charles Roe, who died yesterday at the Emergency Hospital from the effects of a gunshot wound in the left foot, were today removed to the morgue. Unless sooner claimed by friends, his body will, it is understood, be buried tomorrow in potter's field. Roe was brought to Washington yester- day morning from Cox’s station, a small place on the Pope's Creck branch of the Baltimore and Potomac railroad, and was taken to the Emergency Hospital. An ex- amination there revealed that he had been wounded in a terrible manner in his left foot, and that gangrene had set in. He was too weak to tell how he had been shot, but the doctors ascertained that the injury was inflicted Sunday one w2ek ago. Everything possible was done to relieve the unfortunate man's sufferings, but he died as stated. There will be no inquest here, but th> Charles county, Maryland, authorities will be notified of Roe’s death and of the attending clreumstances, so far as known in Washington. ‘TO CURE A COLD IN ONE DAY Take Laxative Bromo Quinine Tablets.

INCREASING DEMAND FOR FACILITIES Superintendent Powell's Views of Certain Local Conditions. QUESTION OF NON-RESIDENTS The annual report of the committee on public schools of the board of trade has been submitted by Chairman A. P. Far- don, and will be incorporated in the eighth arnual report of the board, which will soon be ready for the printer. In part the report 1s as follows: “Your committee on public schools, in its last annual report, confined {ts recommen- dations to the manual training branch of Instruction, indorsing the recommendation of the District Commissioners for an ap- propriation of $250,000 for two buildings, one for the white and one for the colored. The recommendation of the committee was subsequently approved by the board of trade, and by its aid, jointly with the Com- missioners, Congress appropriated $50,000 with authority to procure a site and ar- range for one building, the cost not to ex- ceed $125,000. A suitable site has been pur- chased, at an expense of about $48,000, The Commissioners now ask of Congress the ad- ditional appropriation of $75,000. Your com- mittee feel gratified that its efforts with our national legislators were not in vain— we received the half loaf and long for the other half—for the manual training school for the colored. “Your committee are in doubt whether the 0) asked for the erection and equip- ment of the building will be sufficient. A model building should be erected here at the national capital which should be equal, if not superior, to any in other progressive cities of the country, to meet the present and future demands for this important branch of public education. The Increasing Demand. “The rapidly increasing population of the District and the laudable interest by all classes of our citizens in public education of necessity create an increasing demand for school facilities. This demand should be met without hesitancy, to the end that appropriations sufficiently liberal shall be made that no one within our borders shai: be denied or abridged in school facilities from the age the child receives its first impression to the point at which those im- pressions fructify and fit the child for act- ive life. The state should not only furnish public education to all who knock at the School house door, but enforce it by com- pulsory laws. Your committee are gratified and proud to report that year by year school facili- ties have increased, bringing equipped buildings, improved methods of teaching, with an abler corps of teachers. We are not ashamed of any part of our education, but are willing to compare it with any other locality in our country Good as it is, there is, howev ressing necessity for gr es. While it may be affirmed that in this Dis- trict children have not been dented schoo. must be said that in some instances chil- dren have not been able to have proper facilities on account of this lack of room. “Even taking the system as it now exisis, Is for two sessions per day in all the grades except the first and second. Owing to the lack of rcom it is founi practicable to extend school facilities to children in the third and fourth grades in some instances only by having half-day schools. It is far better that the erection of school bulld- ings should be in advance of the school population. In other words, it is better to have too much room than to have nov enough. If we had an enforcable com- pulsory law—as we should have—that every child should receive for a certain number of days in each year either public or pri- vate schooling, we would be greatly lacking in room. As it is, there should be no abridgment in facilities for daily attend- ance in the first six grades; if any shail suffer for want of room (which we hope in the future will not be the case) let it be those in the higher grades. Replies From Cities. “Your committee in its investigations of public instruction have received, in answer to certain inquiries, replies from the super- Intendents of public schools in twenty-five cities In different sections of the country, and in none of them are non-resident chil- dren allowed to attend without the pay- ment of cost of tuition or stated sums from $15 to $60 per school year, or an average of about $35 per year. Worcester, Mass., the lowest, Chicago and Alexandria ‘the highest, $60. “The District of Columbia seems to be thi one exception, and that without authority of law, where non-residents are permitted to attend our schools. Several hundred are now attending not only the graded, but the high, manual training and com: mercial schools. Unquestionably we should welcome to our schoois all children that permanently or temporarily reside here. Whether we should throw open our schoul doors for the free education of those wh reside, 1.0t for a single day here, but come and go daily from their homes in neighbor- ing states, is a question worthy of con- sideration. “Your committee approve and recom- mend the indorsement of the board of trade of the estimates made by the board of school trustees and approved by the Com- missioners, to be submitted to Congress The creation of the office of assistant superintendent, as asked for, is absolutely necessary, as all the time of the super- intendent is required and should be given to the purely educational part. The in- crease for the supervising principals, for increase in number of teachers (36 in ail), an increased appropriation for the teachers of night schools. The small appropriation for the kirdergarten last year was only sufficient to initiate the work, and an ap- prepriation of 000 should be made to put it upon a permanent basis. Fand for Repairs. “The $50,000 asked for repairs to school buildings will all be required to put and keep them in proper repair and santtary condition. The $75,000 for the erection of a manual training school building should be early appropriated by Congress nd made immediately available. The new school buildings asked for are needed, the full amount of the appropriation asked for each building should be granted—not re- duced, as in many cases heretofore—with the result that lots of limited dimensions for builaings had to be procured with in- sufficient ground about them for proper light, ventilation and yards for the chil- tren during their recreation.” The report is based upon subordinate re- ports from subcommittees, very few of the recommendations of the latter, however, being incorporaied in the official report as printed above. In the report of the subcommittee on pri- mary schools the following data is given concerning the Washington schools: “We have 84 schools of all grades, of which 234 are compulsory half-day schools —184 of these being white and 100 colored These compulsory half-day schools com- prise more than one-quarter of all—an ag- gregate of not less than 11,000 pupils, who, in the most receptive and impressionable period of their lives, have the privilege of going to school but three and a half hours a day. And this summary, let it be remem- bered, does not include the whole of the first and second grades, nearly all of which are confined to half-day schools. Here are more than 1,600 additional in the schools to which the authorities prefer to assign but half a day. Very many of the 11,000 at- tendants on the compulsory half-day schools are in the third and fourth grades, embracing children of from eight to eleven years of age, and many of them still older. Children of the Poor, “In this connection let it be noted that three-fourths of the children in our schools do not attend at all beyond the fifth grade, when, being children of the poor, they are taken out to work and help provide for the family. If they are given this scanty schooling up to the fourth or fifth grade, what kind of a @ance have they to obtain os tha amount of geal GuWieage whicn will assist them in becoming good and use- ful citizens? Ought -not-the children of the unprosperous, who are thus handicap- ped in the race of 'Iifetafd who possess 80 few opportunities for self-development, to be in a very peculiarjsense the wards of the community in which they live, and to enjoy all the advantages which it can con- fer, especially when the estimate of a dis- tinguished educator is récalled, that a ma- jority of human beings acquire before thelr clghth year one-Hatt of all the know!- edge which they ever possess? “It must be remembered also that a law for compulsory education is on the statute books of this District and that no serious attempts are made to Rave it oneved. In- deed. no such law could be other than a dead letter, as long as the present crowded condition prevails. In #686 there were 12,- 000 more children on the-schoo! roll than there were seats in the District, a ccndi- tion which subsequent years have not ameliorated. ‘This rendbrs any law to com- pel the children of the District to go to school a mockery of legisiation.”’ The subcommittee’s report declares the congestion in the schoo] attendance in this city is greatly aggravated by the large numbers of children who come into the District every morning from adjvining states. This invasion, says the report, in direct violation of the law under which the schcois were organized and in direct opposition to their best interests, but no serious attempt seems ever to have been made to prevent it. From facts that have come to the com- mittee it is of opinion that 2,000 or children come into this Distric and attend school. Most of thes: Maryland and Virginia, and not iess than 500 are children of parents who neither pay taves in the District nor find empicy- ment in the District. It is stated from 1,50) to 2,000 are the chi'dren of clerks and employes who work in Washington, but who live outside of the District and pay their taxes to increase the revenues of other communities. Several hundred come every morning on Wats and railroad trains from Alexandria, a city which charges $60 1 year tuition to every student in its public schools from outsid: its borders. All of this, in the opinion of the committee, is a gross imposition 9n this District and a wanton injury to the chil- dren of our primary grades wno are de- prived of a proper schooling thereby. Superintendent’ Views. Mr. W. B. Powell, superintendent of the Washington schools, was seen by a reporter for The Star this morning and interviewed cn the subjects embraced in the reports. “The question of admitting outside chil- dren in the Washington schools is not a new one by any means,” said he. “It has claimed the attention of the executive de- partment of the public school system year ifter year. We have endeavored to devise ways and means of excluding all children of non-resident and non-taxpaying parents, but it has always been found impracticable. This is a federal city, and the conditions here, as every one must know, are differ- ent from those to be found in. any other part of the country. There is no law pro- viding for the collection of tuition from out- side children. Neither ts there a law com- manding ie to forbid the attendance of such children. So under the circumstances {see no immediate relief in sight. I think, however, the number of outsiders in our schools has been overestimated. From the latest figures on the subject the number of hildren in the public schools whose parents neither pay xes nor do business in the city 1s considerably less than 1,000. Lower Grades Preferred. “In regard to the other point made by the board of trade committee, I have always contented that if Wishiigton can furnish but a limited amodit ‘of money for the schools the beginner should be provided for first and best of all. 1A qity does more good in establishing kindergartens than high schools. No city, however, should limit its educational facilities.to primary schools or .o primary and grammar schools. Washington can vafford schools of all srades for all the children eligible to at- send. Upon the schoojs our civilization rests. We need moré ‘buildings that we may lo away with the half-day schools, and bet- er school buildings that our influence may be greater over the children. We should not have one class of schopls at the expense 4f another, but moré and better schools in ine with the present'system.” AFFAIRS IN) GHORGETOWN. paar? Thursday Designated as Donation Day at University Hospital. Thursday, Noveryber 24, will be observed as donation day at the Georgetown Uni- versity Hospital, on whieh occasion the building will be thrown open to visitors. ‘This is the first donation day in the his- tory of the new hospital, and contributions of money, groceries, house furnishings, medical and hospital stores will be grate- fully received.

Dersey, it is Gaimed, has given her considerable trouble during recent months, appealed Judge Kimball this morning for protecjion. She preferred a charge of threats against her husband, and sald she merely wanted him to give her some assurance that he; would not repeat his ill-treatment of her. » “If she says I threateaed her,” prisoner, “I must be; guilty. Judge Kimball questioned Mrs. Dorsey, who told of the reported’ threats made by her husband, and also sdid he had struck aid the 1 admit that slap her sometimes,” the husband told the court. “and,” added the judge, “you be sent to jail every; time,you do tt. The wife said that;liquor was usualiy the cause of tha trouble. Judge Kimball said he had intended tak- ing the husband’s personal bonds, but his exhibition of temper on the stand, coupied with his claim to the right to slap ‘his wife, had caused him to change his mind. Dorsey was sentenced to give bond in the sum of $200 or go to jail for sixty days. ight to If you want anything, try an ad. in The Star. If anybody has what you wish, you will get an answer.
