Some Eastrru and Southern citic
are vexed with tlie free jmblic bath
problem, towit: It free baths are
provided it will he lor the use -of
negroes alt 'lost exclusively, (or
white persons refuse to bathe in the
same tanks or tubs that their black
Itrethcreii and sisters use; and the
negroes, being citizens, cannot be
constitutionally excluded. The
only recourse eceius to bo to pro
vide seperate bathing lioiiHes for
the two races though there is one
other solution of the problem posi
ble and that is to have no free
bathing houses, let every one pro
vide his own bath, or go without.
In the south and east it is custom
ary to have separate waiting rooms
at railway stations, and peparate
coaches for white and black people
so why nut separate baths?

Washington, D. C. July 'J'J.
New members of the House have
for many years been astonished at
and have suinetimes viciously at
tacked tint luxuries with which Sen
ators nave mirrouuded theinselveH,
but when the improvement: now
underway on tho house side of the
capitol are completed, ns they will
be before congresn meets, tho dis
posal as Senator, no that such at
tack will not be in order. The new
ventilating system and fixtures
connected with the chamber of
house will probably bo tho most
elaborate and costly ever put into
a building, they include the very
newest idea in sanitary ventilation.
The newest desks for members are
to be of mahogany, finished in the
finest style known to the cabinet
maker, and 15 pair of mahogany
doors, costing 2,.r00 wili replace
the old doors, and under each the
old Wood sills will bo replaced by
tine marble. The hkylighta wili be
enlarged and the galleries recon
structed. So much for tho house
proper. In the ban'inciit, tho old
house bath room is being dis
mantled, and a most luxuriousout
lit installed, with all the modem
liltings, including wallsof the finest
Italian n nrhle, tubs of porcelain
and niekled plumbing, and in one
corner will be an up-to-dato Turk
ish bath. In short, the house will
have the usual luxuries found in
expensive clubs, which long ago
played their part in getting the
senate called the"Millionaim Club"
Capt. Lueien Young, U. S. N.,
Commandant of tho naval station
and Captain of Port of Havana
passetl though Washington on his
way to his old home in Kentucky,
w here he will spend a short vaca
tion, lie said of affairs in the
Cuban mclroplis: Everything in
Havana is quiet and affairs are
running like clockwork, under the
direction of American officials.
The Cub'ius are assimilating Ameri
can ideas, and there is no good
reason to suppose that when they
take up ti e reins of local control
they will not conduct matters in a
wise and proper manner."
The annual report of tho coinis
siouer internal of revenue for the
last fiscal year is calculated to arouse
the envy of tho officials of other
governments, many of which which
each year faced a deficit. Tho total
amount collected front internal
revenue taxes was .'lOti.871 ,'CV -greater
than ever before - $ll,rit"
5bT greater than the amount re
ceived during the previous year,
and the cost of collecting thisenorm
ous lot of money was only If 1,737,-
The commissioners of internal
revenue has issued special regula
tions for the collection of internal
revenue taxes upon taxable Porto
Kicau products shipped to tho U.
S. this lax will not have to bo paid
upon Porto Rican products con
sumed at homo until congress ex
tends the internal revenue laws to
Porto llico.
Every time there is an inclement
inauguration day, there is a change
to a more seasonable time of the
year for out of door exercises.
Heretofore, this clamor has been al
lowed to die out gradually, but the
committee which had charge of the
tho last inauguaration is still keep
ing it up. Its chairman has sub
milted a plan to tho commissioners
committee, to bo "composed of all
the governors of states and terri
tories and fifteen representative
citizens, which shall select a suit
able day and memorialize congress
to take the proper steps towards a
constitutional amendment making
it inauguration day. Unless these
gentlemen tire of well-doing, there
is a possibility of tho next president
being inaugurated in more pleasant
weather than usually prevails on
the fourth of March in Washington.
If everybody should bo as well
pleased with the opinion and rec
omendatioiis which tho Schley court
of inquiry, as they now profess to
be with the personal of tho court,
it would bo a beautiful ending of a
more or less ugly ami disagreeable
matter. Of the personnel of the
court-Admiral Dewey and Iloar
Admirals Kimberly and llenhain
for judges, so to speak, and Capt.
Lemly, who has been judge advo
cate of- tho navy for nine years,
for Judge advocato-nothing but
commendation could be spoken,
not only because of the eminent
careers of tho officers, but because
neither of them has ever been
drawn into expressing an opinion
of the Sampson-Schley controversy
Such men will form their opinions
'and make their recommendation

goley on tho evidence presented be
fore the court. Secretary Long
is entitled to nil the more cred
it for selecting ftich an in
irreproachable court, lteeauso he
believes and baa openly aid
that Schley was guilty reprehensibe
conduct during tho West Indian
naval campaign. The court will
meet Sept. 12 and its sessions will
b open. Opinion differs an much
as to how long it will sit its to what
the finding will bo. Whatever H
may he, no punishment can follow
for anybody, as the naval regula
tions ptovitlo that in officer shall
be punished who is not brought to
trial within two years of thedato of
tho offense. Secretary long hag is
sued tin order, which should have
been issued long ago, forbidding
officers of tho navy to publicly
discuss and express opinion upon
the Sampson Schley mailer.
