"?\ disclosed by preparations now in progress
*"* thorough overhauling' of the kitchens of.
*££ restaurants.
taut* of men prominent In public life have
v " la the habit of eating at these places daily
Djgy the sessions of Congress. For years
Tll^fcrf been complaint, sometimes mild and
-in mere vigorous, amor* the nation's law
yers as to the character of the food furnished
i. One of the standing Jokes at the Capitol
; -ye rem* 1 * of a Senator, who, when a con-
JLuent vrfth a somewhat obscure utterance
'■"■^Yhltn for a copy of the "poor food bill,"
Tuning pore food bill, replied facetiously. "Oh.
> .is ea*r to get. I will send for the Senate
-.-mnrar-t menu."
-*cush the Capitol fare has been the cause of
J^X perturbation among the lawmakers, and
■utt of many Jokes, it has never been known
iLofoT* that they were eating food which was
g»r*<! in the midst of dirt and in surround
•'"finest unsanitary in character. For the
"v _ O the true conditions and the under
"JL cf a reform credit trust be given to ElH
iTwoods. superintendent of the Capitol, who
*Lt before the Senate Committee on Rules and
Speaker of the House last session armed
"Wfacts an 2 figures which cause*! those offl-
M § to authorize Mr. Woods to undertake im
\vr«nentf that will make a tremendous differ-
J^ when Congress gets to work next De
■^Troofis got from the Senate Rules Com-
See an appropriation of $17.0(¥> with which
*C o ahead and make of the Senate kitchen
"La restaurant a cleanly and sanitary • place.
I" also set from the powers that be in the
!«»e" permission to spend a tidy sum for the
Utrtaollnc of the House kitchen and it« en
--Bjeat to twice its present size.
w, Woods came from his conference with the
mlir* powers of the Senate and House with
■Ific tboritfes conferred upon him. He is to
'it dse general manager of the Capitol's eating
dices hereafter, or at least he is empowered
B to sspervise the management that it will go
fctrd «■''•*• '-hose who conduct them if they are
rot ker-t spotttsaly clean. Mr. Woods has de
rail that there shall be thorough inspection
jrJ examination of both restaurants and
ltitcfcer.s not less than every two days.
Some Idea of the conditions under which the
Senate cooks' prepared the viands may be given
wher. it i* stated that the Senate kitchen was
a regular paradise for rat?. They held confer
ence there, burrowed in the floors, scampered
about In '-he crevices of the walls, and, in fact,
wen tree ar.d unconfined. The Senate kitchen
to in a dingy sub-basement of the Capitol, and
ordinary efforts to get rid of the rats have
t«n ineffectual. r
Sow it baa been decreed that the rats must
go. To accomplish this a new floor, composed
Cf broke:, glass, a sprinkling of lime. a.nd over
fiat four inches at cement end tiling, will be
Jjia. No rat, it is calculated, could bore through
,the combination. The plumbing and sewerage
win also be done over. There will be a cold
enrage room built, ten feet square, and in this
all the perishable supplies for the restaurant
wili I* kept. This will r««ult In doing away
irith ill the oil wooden refrigerators, ■which it
bai been found Impossible to keep In a satis
factory condition for so large an establishment.
la connection with the cold storage room an
ice plant will be installed with a capacity of
two tors. This will be the first ice making plant
totalled In the Capitol, ar.d will add the duty
■"■■iiiifii luring; ice to the many other aetivl
tlej of the "Capitol caretakers. It will also
presage the building of a still larger ice plant
for chilling the air circulated in the House and
Senate chambers through ventilating shafts. Big
iix-foot ventilating far will I ring fresh air
Into the kitchens. An important addition will
be a. takeshop in which f rt-sh bread and pastry
may be cooked every day under government su
pervision.
It i? ir, the equipment and paraphernalia of
the kitchen that decided innovations will be
made, which would seem to indicate that les
(era have been learned as a result of the govern
ment Inspection of the Chicago meat packing
plants a! the changes made in them for greater
clear.!ir.e.«s. It will be required that in the Sen
ate tnd House :ich*nß only steel tables shall
be us*d pjid that the actual preparation of the
Joed must be done on marble topped counters.
Heretofore wooden tables have been used en
tirely in the Capitol kitchens, and It v.as the
condition of these tables which attracted Mr.
Veedi rittrntion. He has decreed that only for
the actual chopping of ir.eat can a wooden block
be used.
Scores of Senators and occasionally members
•f the Supreme Court take their meals in the
wnaurar.t of the Senate daily, and the place is
Ml patronized In the winter months for at
least three hours of the day. The running cf
the place ie Jet out by contract, but the margin
c* profit has not been large, because of the short
tim» in Which the restaurant is patronized. The
pMtrni dcs not tarnish any of the para
phernalia f',r the S^rate restaurant, but gives
the location, light and fuel free of charge.
In the cas*- of til House restaurant the United
Etates furnishes everything to the keeper except
food a?. the belp «mplo]r«d. "When the govrn-
TatrX stopped the wile of liquor at the Capitol,
a few rears ago. the profits in the House res
taurant fell off. •«-, that one year the place was
actually conducted at a loss of $3,000. Last
J'«ar the patronage was better. The policy in
the Housf- restaurant is to ensure quickness of

MRS.CRUGER SEES THAW
Author 'Attribute* VI4M tn "Kind
ness" Croicd Anno;/* Her.
Mrs. Van Rensselaer Cruger, the author,
called on Harry K. Thaw yesterday morning
and remained with him about an hour. Before
entering the Tombs she said to the reporters
that her visit had no special significance, and
was based wholly upon the fact that she was
a friend of the family, that she wished to nee
Harry, and thought perhaps her visit might
cheer him up. Thaw's lawyers also gave the
same reason for Mrs. Cruger's visit.
Mrs. Harry K. Thaw was accompanied to the
Tombs again yesterday by Miss May McKenzie.
who bad another pass to see Thaw, and went
up with the young wife to her husband's cell.
Miss McKenzie declared that she had known
Thaw for a good many years and was his wife's
closest friend, and that these two reasons were
the only causes of her visits to Thaw in the
Tombs.
Thaw's lawyers would not discuss the visits
of the alienists yesterday, and still clung to
their assertion of Tuesday that Thaw was suf
fering from a cold, leaving It to be Inferred
that the physicians had been called in on this
account.
Mrs. Thaw was asked why the alienists came
to see her husband, and replied that she was
ignorant of tho reason, but thought it must be
because Harry had been complaining of not
feeling well. She thought perhaps he had caught
cold, she said.
Mrs. Van Rensselaer Cruger was horrified at
the annoyances which followed her visit to Thaw.
These were due in the main to a gaping crowd
of curiosity seekers and the faithful band of in
terviewers on guard at the entrance to the Tombs.
As Mrs. Cruger was departing, after an hour
spent with young Thaw, she was met by the
reporters first, who began to ply her with ques
tions. Only one got an answer. He asked
bluntly;
"What possible interest' have you got in this
case, that should bring you to the Tombs?"
"Kindness, kindness." said Mrs Cruger; -kind
ness. I assure you, simon pure and simple."
Mrs. Cruger came to the Tombs in an electric
hansom, and instead of following Mrs. Thaw's
example and sending th«> vehicle to a side street
to wait her return. Mrs. Cruger thoughtleFFly let
it eland in front of the Tombs. This caused a
crowd to collect, and when sh started to her
carriage Ebe found the sidewalk blocked. Mrs.
Cruger scanned the gazers scornfully through
her lorgnette, but this failed to make the de
sired opening for her.
Turning to Mr. Peabody, one of Thaw's law
yers, she said: "My God. cant somebody drive
away these destestahle people? Doe-* Evelyn
have to face this every day? Oh, this Is awful!"
The lawyer managed to get her to the car
riage, and she was driven away, angrily pro
testing at the people for blocking the way to her
carriage and for staring at her.
"I have not outlined the defence that I will
make in the Thaw case. an»l you canr.ot make
the denial too strong." said Clifford Hartrldge,
counsel for Thaw, when seen yesterday. Mr.
Hartrldge visited Thaw in the afternoon.

DRAMA ON "THE SCARLET EMPIRE."

FIVE FRESH AIR PARTIES.
Busy Dai/ ■ for City Children and
'"'*.•,./-•. '
Fund Managers.
Five parties, three returning to New York after
two weeks spent In the couutry, and two ••*■■
to the country for two »■. ski of fun and fresh air,
kept the workers of the Tribune Fresh Air Fund
busy yesterday. As early as 7 o'clock In the morn-
Ing the first contingent charged Into Grand Cen
tral Station after an all night ride on the train.
The party returned from Lyons Falls, N. T..
where, through the efforts of the Re*. W. C. Bpicer.
it had been entertained.
Another happy party were fifty girls who re- j
turned from Happy Land, at Tenafly. N. J. It Is
seldom that children carry away prettier souvenirs
of their visit than did these. Before leaving the
home the whole party lined up to say goods* to
the hostess. Then each one received a bag of candy
and a pretty bouquet of flowers taken from the
conservatory of the woman who supports Happy
Land. It is the custom at this pleasant home to
dismiss every party in this way.
Hardly bad the stages bearing the children to
the station started when they burst into the words
of the song. "Happy Land." which they had
learned. All the way to the station they kept It
up. On board the train this son gave place to a
variety of popular airs; and before they knew it
the whole crowd was marching aboard a Chambers
street ferryboat.
Even among the children of the poor there Is a
great deal of pride developed, which Is sometimes
amusing. Two little girls In the party ycstnfaay
were heard discussing a third girl. This Is the
way the conversation went: •
"You live on the same street with Mamie, don't
you?"
"Yes, but nowhere near her." This with a touch
of scorn. "She lives down near Avenue C. and I
guess my folks wouldn't live In that place."
It turned out that the one who made the last
remark lived near Avenue A.
Another girl showed a touch of the some kind of
pride when she remarked. "I ain't going to play
with Susie any more. She's too rough and ain't
got no manners at alt."
The party returning from Tenafly will be replaced
by another company on Friday, when fifty more
girls will go to Happy Land. ■
One of the parties that went out yesterday went
to Warwick. N. V.. to take tbe place of a company
of boys that returned to the city after a regular
two weeks' visit. In this party was one little
Italian of ten who had never seen more [ counto
than City Hall Park, even Central Park having
been always beyond his vision. He lives in a Mo
ment in Mulberry street, wnere his father and
mother, both ragpickers, try to earn a living for
their seven children. The boy. when at •»«»••-.«:
ways has the younger children under his ' care. The
missionary who had brought him to the station
said that she seldom saw him unless he had one
baby brother on each arm. - > ; -*;^
At first me mother of this child objected to let
ting htm go away, stoutly maintained that she had
to nave the boy at home to work, t »nally a mis
sionary w-nt to the house, remarking that she
would not leavte It until the mother contented tor
the boy to get some fresh air. After two hours
argument she accomplished her purpose.
•me New Windsor fresh Air tJoriety also re
e»iv?d a party of twenty boys at New "tnasor.
This Is the sixth party of twenty that has gone
New Windsor this year. ■ To-day will be a _ n « th ?T
! busy one as over three hundred beys and girls are
expecting to get away before night.

order cf and addressed to the Tribune Fresh Air
Fund. Xew York City.
[The Tribune Fresh Air Fund was the first move
ment of the kind in the country. Every other one.
here or elsewhere, has been started in imitation of
this pioneer. The Tribune cordially welcomes all
co-laborers In thr field, but. without wishing to
depreciate in the least the work of others, thinks it
its duty to remind readers that the Tribune Fresh
Air Fund Is. so far as known, the only one in
which absolutely every doßs* contributed by the
public Roes directly to the work of sending a poor
child to the country, keeping it there for two weeks
and bringing it back again. No collectors are ever
empl' ye«l. and all collections made for the fund ure
purely voluntary. All expenses for the organiza
tion, agents and general machinery of the charity
are privately defrayed by The Tribune Itself and by
The trustees of the fund. There are no percentages
to collectors to come out of the contributions of
the public, and no payments to agents, managers,

the Jjenefit of a child]
MR. (TLBERSOX PROTESTS
Texas Senator Objects to Abandon
ment of Fort Broun.
[fly TcVrraph to Tho Tribune.]
Dallas. Tex.. Aug. 22.— Senator Culberson to
day sent the following telegram, protesting
against the proposed abandonment ot Fort
B:own. Tex.:
Dallas, Tex.. Aug. 22.
To General F. C. Aißjnrorth, the Military Sec
retary. Washington.
In the mornin.t papers here The Associated
Press states that Fort Brown will i>«» abandoned,
and I will thank you to wire me if this eourso
ha.« hren determined upon. It la the duty of the
United States to protect the frontier, and as
Texas borders upon Mexico it has always been
doomed advisable to police the frontier with reg
ular troops, Including n station at Fort Brown.
While conditions on the border have Improved
very much within recent years, this course- is
still advisable, and it would be regrettable that
this fort should be abn:idi>n«»d. because the peo
ple of a border city like Brownsville object to
Negro troops, under circumstances of raid and
murder, such as recently occurred there.
C. A CTLBERSON.
Up to a late hour to-night Senator Culborsoa
had received no reply. He will leave here for
Washington to-rr.orrow morning.
ME. GAGE NOT A TIIEOSOPKIoT.
Says He lives at Point loma as It la an
Ideal Home.
[By Telegraph to The Tr.bune. 1
Chicago, Ai:et. 22.— Lyman J. Gage. rwTtfte? Sec
retary of the Treasury, came to Chicago quietly,
hoping to keep his visit Kecr^t. to transact per
cor.u! business! and cxp?ct3 to return to his new
home, near Point Loma, Cal.. to-morrow. He
does not go there, as he explained, through
friends, because he has embraced the Th<?o.*opi^
ical cult of Mr* Tinrl*y. but because he believes
he has found the most delishtfu! part of the
whole country to f*.we'.l In.
In conversation with Chicago friends. Mr. Gage
stated that he considered th« Theosophiste a
remarkably Interesting group of people, pos
sessed of unusual mental attainments.
"Mr. Gage la looking very wcl!," said Mrs.
Pierre, hi.< lighter, through whom Mr.
Gage made the statement. "I do nut know
when I have seen him In more robust health."
To big friends In Chicago. Mr. Gage has spoken
fr&nkly of his attitude toward the Point Loma
cult.
"He has not joined the cult." suld a friend to
day. He denied that positively. He has de
cided to make his home near Point Loma merely
because he thinks It the most delightful plan
in Cailfornta in which to reside. He haa worked
Untl tor mit.iy years and btrlievej he is entitled
to rest now. and the best place In which to rest
*xeius to h'.m his new home near Point Loom."
ARMY AID NAVY NEWS.
'.From The Tribune Bureau ]
NAVY VA<-ANriE3 >U > BF.O'iIXO - The :.- xt
fourth class at the Naval a .im: will be the
smallest at that Institution in mm -*ra. aMß— «h
it was expected by the authorities that It would be
one of the largest. There Is beginning to be the ap
prehension that it will be difficult to 011 the succes
sive fourth classes year by year. There will be
not many more than two hundred members when
all of the successful candidates are sworn In. and
tt was thought there would be at least one hun
dred more. The vacancies left over for the next
year will be augmented by the places left by the
graduates next June, so that the next fourth class
ought to be composed of at least four hundred
members If all the vacancies in the position of mid
shipnian are filled. Under tbe new system tbe m>m
lmes will be made by Senators and Representatives
In time for examination in April and June of 11*7.
the same to take place under the auspices of the
Civil Service Commission in th* leading cities and
towns and the latter at the Naval Academy. It is
desired to have the classes filled up. to the end that
there may be aa Increase la the commissioned per
sonnel. If the situation does not improve next year
the authorities may consider It worth while taking
up the subject and ascertaining for themselves why
tt Is that there is a failure to get all the places
filled. Perhaps the Secretary of the Navy will nnd
It possible to exercise his right and fill the places
remaining unfilled, although Tn this he is obliged to
make appointments from the district to which the
place is credited.
NAVT NOT FOR SHOW PURPOSEB.-The Navy
Department is receiving numerous requests from
places along the sea coast for the df tail of one or
more ships of war to take part ta local celebra
tions. Some of these come from seaside resorts
where the navy forms obviously an attraction to
visitors, and in some instances" the request has no
other reason for being made than tha' the navy is
to be used tn this connection. Secretary Bonaparte
sees all of these requests, and most of them have
to be unfavorably acted upon, for the reason that
there are no ships of the Atlantic fleet which can
be spared for this purpose. Tlua year the navy
has been exceedingly busy In a practical way. ana
the progamme for manoeuvres has been unbroken
by anything which resembles the excursions and
frivolity of other years. It is the policy of the
present administration to keep th« naval service
keyed up to a standard of efflciency. a sort of per
petual preparedness for action. This has been ac
complished by a prearranged schedule of work
which includes the kind of activity in which the
navy would be called upon to take part in the
event of actual hostilities. All of the exercises re
quire reports from ttie officers who conduct tuem.
together with suggestions of improvements In con
struction and equipment wh!eh will remvdy defects
and add to the availability of the navy for action
in time of war. It Is for this reason that the sec
retary of the Navy keeps close to serious tKinfcs
ard views r Ith disapproval any suggestion which
is not like work.

The distance from Bahla Blnnca. the port from
which Secretary Root rmbarkfl on August 2"J. to

place about August -4
The original schedule lot Secretary Root's trip
Iv.d A'tpust 30 fixed a- the date when he should ar
