CASE OF EX-CADET BOOZ.
%dditional Factx Regarding His Has
ing at West Poknt.
A dispatch to the New York Herald from
West Point yesterday says: Investigation
of the 'areer of Oscar L. Boz as a cadet
in the United States Ailitary Academy re
veals that he was dragged out into the woods
and required to drink a'mixture of tomato
ketchup, Worcestershire sauce and red pep
per. When ne then refused to be a party
in a standup fight with another cadet he
was peremptorily branded a coward. The
.ubsequent at.:itude of his comrades toward
him forcsd him to resign from the academy.
Cowardice is charged not only by his -for
mer classmates, but also by the military
authorities against Booz, who lies dying at
his home In Bristol, Pa.. from injures al
leged to have been received from hazing
while a cadet at the acad(emy.
Only traditions as old as the academy it
self were followed in the hazing of Boos.
His own Individuality made him the unfor
tunate vIctIm of general prejudice and un
popularity. He was virtually forced from
the Military Academy by the attitude of his
fellow studenta, because of hi,s failure to
act In harmony with unwritten college law
and custom.
There is no truth in the report sent ot
by the friends of the former cadet that
tabagro sauce or a red hot iron was forced
down the young man's throat.
Because Boos is reported to be. dying as a
result of injuries inflIcted upon him by his
fellow students a rigid investigation bas
been made at the academy. As yet the
authorities are only in part possessIon of
the facts that surround the hazing of Boos.
The names of the cadets whose prank of
one night Ia saId to have caused the fatal
illness of the former cadet are known to
rmany of their clasmen, but it Is a matter
of honor to each one of them to hold se
cret that roll of cor-vivial spirits responsible
for the undoing of their comrade.
A dispatch from Trenton, N. J., yesterday
says: An attempt is now being made to
eUicit an ante-mortem statement from Oscar
L. Boos, formerly a cadet at West Point,
who is dying at his home in Bristol, Pa.,
as a result of Injuries said to have been
Infieted at- Wet Point nearly a year ago.
The young man is slowly sinking awlay, and
the ante-mortem statement was suggested
by the Bucks county authorities. He can
not talk. Is too weak to write, and just how
the statement will be obtained Is a mys
tery. The young man's folks are willing
to have him make a statement for the
benefit of the public as well as themselves.
Boog todyis weaker than ever. HIs
stomach wil not admit of food or nour
ishment.
Dr. Weaver, who Is attending him, said
tenlght: "The boy is slowly starving to
death. Nothing can be done for him. As
to an ante-mortem statement, the boy's
mental powers are not in fit condition to
make a statement of that sort. He will not
live a week.
Chiekens With Asbestes Fea.thes.
An ocasonal correspondent of the New
York Herald at Newcastle, Pa., sends the
following:
What is said to be a new species of fowl
is being raised by Lucas Perkins, constable
and chicken fancier of this city.
His hennery is In the sixth ward near
an asbestos works, and thte chIckens feed on
asbestos sifttings. Persons who have bought
eggs from Perkins recently complained that
they did not cook well. Fite had little ef
fect on them. When eaten raw they seemed
to be all right, but they could not be boiled
or fried properly.
Some younlg chicks were hatehed from the
eggs and instead of haaving feathers the new
brood is growing a covering of down that
resembles asbestos. They are unlike any
thing ever seeni by the chicken fancler, ac
cording to Perkins.
Bnnds of persons have seen the chik..k

exscitement his fowls are creating there is

THE DIVISION OF COST
Albert %haw In the Review of Iteview-.
While the system of streets and avenues
devised by Major L'Enfant as applied at
Washington, possessed symmetry in a very
high degree, It had to recognise for practical
purposes the natural conditions of topog
graphy.
Two h!ghly important points were fixed at
the beginning, and so wisely were they
chosen that there can never be any occa
sion for regret. The most conspicuous of
these was the site chosen for the great
building that we call the Capitol. A rather
curious coincidence seems to have authen
ticity. It is recorded that an English gen
tltman, whose name was Pope, about the
year 1660, acquired an estate, including
what is now Capitol Hill, and it pleased
his fancy, his name being what it was, to
call his estate Rome, and to sign himself
"Pope of Rome." A little stream nearby
was designated the "Tiber." while the exact
spot where the Capitol stands today was
christened by him "Capitoline Hill." All
this was nearly a hundred and fifty years
before the arrival of Congress, Just a hun
dred years ago.
The other chief point originally fixed as
an important focus was the White House,
with its symmetrically disposed environs.
The distance between these two points
each of which was chosen for topographical
reasons--is about a mile and a half.
Through the dense undergrowth of the
swamp land that intervened was blazed out
what is now Pennsylvania avenue, Wash
ington's finest thoroughfare, one of the
world's great streets.
Broad Projects.
Where large projects are concerned that
involve future generations, there is nothing
that so certainly wins the esteem of poster
ity as broad plans that consider future
needs. Some things in the way of reserva
tions of ground for additional public build
ings might have been done in the early
days that were overlooked. But no fatal
mistakes were made; and Washington has
suffered more in those regards from the
shortsightedness of men like James K.
Polk and his contemporaries than from any
negligence or error on the part of the men
who first staked out the new city in the
woods and swamps. It is no part of our in
tention in this article to present, in detail,
either the historical development of Wash
ington as a city or to set forth its present
appointments, embellishments and attrac
tions. It has become the Mecca of all good
America'ns. and the just object of their
pride. It represents great beauty, at a very
reasonable cost, in its monuments of archi
tecture and its ever-increasing treasures of
statuary and art. It grows more attractive
every year in its parks, gardens, shady
streets and open spaces, and in the delight
ful exhibition it presents of Anterican taste
and progress in domestic architecture.
The Capitol.
The Capitol building continues to hold its
pre-eminence as by far the noblest and
stateliest structure in the western hemis
phere, if not in the entire world. It has
been built picemeal, yet with constant gain
rather than loss of symmetry and dignity.
As we now celebrate a hundred years of its
occupancy, it is agreeable to remember that
the two little detached wings of very mod
est size shown In one of our illustrations
(which answered early in the century, the
one on the right for the House of Repre
sentatives and the one on the left for the
Senate) still exist, the old Virginia sand
stone of their walls being covcred with
white paint to match the Massachusetts
marble of which th.e vast wings now occu
pied by Congress were afterward built. The
plans were by Stephen Hallett, a famous
student of the more famous architect,
Nash, who developed them from sketches
and designs by Dr. Thornton, then in charge
of the patent office. Our Illustration, to
which reference has just been made, shows
the Capitol, not as It was in 1800, but as it
was in 1811. When Congress took posses
sion only the northern of these two wings
the one now occupied by the Supreme Court
-was ready. The other wing, designed for
the House of Representatives, was finished
in 1811; and a wooden passageway was
built to connect the two across the space
that forms the basement of what is now
the rotunda.
* * * The total cost of the building has
been about $15,000,000. The latest impor
tant improvement has been the construc
tion of a great monumental staircase as
the main approach on the west side, with
successive terraces of whIte marble. The
bu,..ng has a growing wealth of art in its
statues of public men, its paintings in illus
tration of American history or scenery, and
many otner accessories of an architectural,
.rtistic and historical character.
It is pleasant to feel -that this great build
ing in itself enshrines the entire history of
the federal dIstrict, and that It has been
feasible to enlarge it, from time to time,
rather than to demolish and supersede.
Our more usual American plan is to tear
down the old and build anew.
The White House.
The Executive Mansion, commonly known
as the White House, is another building, in
use for a full century, that is to be kept
and added to without detrIment to its
charms, but with enhancement of its beau
ty as well as its utility. It was an admir
able piece of architecture of the Georgian
or colonIal type, and eminently creditable
to the men of Washington's day. It has
happily escaped the ruthless hand of suc
ceeding periods of monstrously bad taste in
American architecture, and now we haye
come back again to the point where we are
able to appreciate its quiet dignity and
charm. Much talk of Its enlargement has
now resulted in definite steps, an appropria
tion having been made by Congress. More
space for the President's executive ofnices,
as well as for his private uses, is impera
tisely needed. As a part ot the program
for the celebration on December 12, Col.
Theodore A. Blngham of the Unit ed States
army engineers, who is the offier in charge
of public buildings and grounds in the Jis
trit of Columbia. will give a brief address
on the history of the Executive Mansion,
and will also exhibit a model and drawings,
as authorized by Congress, of the proposed
enlargesnent.
The Mall and Memorial Bridge.
Two important public improvements have
had much discussion apropos of the cen
tenary of the District of Columbia, one
being a so-called centennial avenue, to pass
through the broad, park-like grounds known
as the mall, in which are situated the
Smithsonian Institution, the National Mu
seum and the Department of Agriculture,
and to connect the Capitol with the great
Washington monument and the Potomac
bank. This plan awaits the report that
Congress has asked Glen. John M. Wilson.
chief of engineers of the United States
army, to make to it this month on the
proper treatment of the mall as a whole.
It is expected that the work will be car
ried out as soon as the final details of the
project are settled. The .other proposal is
that of a noble memorial bridge across the
Potomac. Certainly, if the District had not
been shorn of its thirty-four square miles
west of the Potomac there would before
this time have been suitable bridge con
nections. The design of Mr. E. P. Casey,
as architect, associted with Mr. W. H.
Burr, as bridge engineer, has been selected
in an offetal coumpetitlon. It now reste
with Congress to proceed, at this auspicious
moment, when the country is prosperous
and the centenary of the Diatict coincide.
with the opening of the twentieth century,

Capitol as the show building Of Washing
to. Another Is the new government print
Ing ofice-a.huge affair, and a model of Its
kind. The new work that will be Antidt
pated with most interest will be the exten
sion of the White House. The day will
come, perhaps in the early future, when
the art treasures of the government will so
accumulate as to justify the building of a
great national gallery. When that time
comes, if not before, the National Museum.
with itspriceles collections of American
archaeology, will need a much better build
ing than it now possesses, and the Agri
cultural Department also will have claims
that cannot be ignored.
Apart from the great buildings pertaining
to the business of the national government
the city of Washington has some other new
structures worthy of mention, among whicI
are the post office building. on Pennsylva
nia avenue, the Corcoran Art Gallery and
the public library, now in process of erec
tion, toward which Mr. Andrew Carnegie
has given several hundred thousand dollars.
The District as an Rdweatieal Center
The development of the District of Co
lumbia as an educational center has of re
cent years been surprisingly rapid. The
subject is one that requires, and will have
in the early future, a separate presentation
in this review. The universities, colleges,
professional schools and Institutions .for
special and general culture in the vicinity
of the great libraries and scientific collec
tions of the national government are all
worthy of encouragement. The intimate
contact of the educational world can only
be of benefit to the predominant official
element at Washington. This particular
kind of evolution is just what the men who
founded the District of Columbia would
most have desired. Washington himself
had faith in the association of university
work with governmental life, and actually
left some money to accumulate toward the
establishment of a higher institution of
learning.
Division of Cost of Maintenance.
Presumably, the cost of a public work
like the proposed memorial bridge would
be defrayed entirely by the national treas
ury; but for all ordinary public improve
ments in the District of Columbia, as well,
Indeed, as all ordinary expenses of munici
pal and general administration in Wash
ington, Congress appropriates just one
half, and the remaining 50 per cent is pro
vided by ordinary taxes levied upon the
property holders. The Commissioners of
the District make up their annual esti
mates, which are submitted for revision to
the Secretary of the Treasury, and they
are then transmitted to Congress and re
ferred to the standing committees on the
District of Columbia, Senator McMillan of
Michigan being now chairman of the Sen
ate committee on the District, and Mr.
Babcock of Wisconsin . chairman of the
House committee.
Washington had at one time, for a few
years. an elaborate and ambitious munici
pal government. but in 1878 reversion was
made to the simpler and more effective
plan of centralizing all authority in the
hands of commissioners. At that time the
board of metropolitan police and the board
of school trustees were abolished, as was
also the board of health and other sepa
rate boards and commissions. The affairs
of Washington are ably, honestly and
economically conducted, and the various
branches of public work are supervised by
men of special training and fitness.
"MAN OF FOUR LANGUAGES."
Unfortunate Michael Ruhls the Sub
Ject of a Jest.
Michael Ruhls' flaming red tie was the
most attractive thing in Judge Scott's court
this morning, and when the wearer of it
was called upon to answer a charge of
vagrancy he expressed surprise that such
an accusation should have been entered
against him.
"Why, your honor," he said, "I came here
because President McKinley sent for me."
Policeman Wall told the court that he
fuund Ruhl In the vicinity of the signal
tower on the Pennsylvania railroad near
the foot of 15th street early last night. He
was wandering about the street, and when
placed under arrest he said he had come
here to call on the President.
"President McKinley sent for me," Ruhls
informed the court, "because I'm a man of
four languages and he knows I'm smart."
He took from his pocket a typewritten
letter that had been given him Saturday.
As soon as he received It he left Baltimore
for this city. The letter which he showed
the judge reads:
"I hereby take pleasure in asking you to
call on me at the very earliest date to ar
range matters for a very important case
I have for you to work up for me, the de
tails of which I will give you when you
call on me. At the same time I wish to
extend to you a most cordial invitation to
be present at the banquet to be given by
me at the national capital in honor of my
re-election. There will be lots more of dts
tinguished guests like yourself present.
Hoping that you will favor me with your
presence, I remain yours truly,
"(Signed) WM. McKINLEY,
"President, U. S. A.
"The ba-nquet takes place December 12,
1900. Tickets will be furnished at the
door."
What purported to be postmarks on the
envelope bad been made with a pen Instead
of a stamp, and when Judge Scott called
his attention to the markings, Ruhi said:
"Why, your honor, that's a penitentiary
offense."
"Everybody in Baltimore knows me," he
added, "and they think so much of me that
some of them call me senator." The pris
on:er was asked If he were married and he
ar.swered in the negative.
"I Intended to get married,"' he said, "but
I changed my mind, and I'm better off."
Ruhi, still of the opinion that the letter
was genuine, was sernt back to be examined,
the court suggesting that his mind was un
balanced.
