At the National Capital

Gossip of People end Events Gathered in Washington

Rapid Strides of Capital in Population

W ASHINGTON —The census taken recently by th* pollen force of the District of Columbia Indicates that tbe national capital la growing In population at an exceptional rate. The increaae in Inhabitant, for the last year Is reported as 9.S1!. which would mean a growth. If steadily main, talned. of almost 100,000 for the currant decode. * Of course such a rate of growth has not been maintained since 1900. According to the federal census of that year. Washington's populstlon was 27S.71&. The populstlon reported by the police In 1*08 is 3».40J. *o I bathe increase In eight years has been 60.884. Uy 1910 Washington may be i-xpecu-d to gain at least 16.000 more Inbabitams and Its population to rise to about 366,000 Compared with IU nearest rival— Daltimore — Washington U making rapid strides forward Baltimore reregntage of growth between 1896 and 190J was 17.1, while Washington's was *0 9. The disparity In expansion

will undoubtedly be greater In decade from 1?00 to 1910. for Baltlmore's growth was checked for a year or more by the loasoa of the great Bra of 1904. while Washington'! growth has been stimulated by euur mous building operations most ol them rondiKleJ under the suspires of th* nations! government. Tbe check to business resulting from l*»t fall's panic will also be fell less In Washington than In perhai-s any other American city. The n Clonal capital does not depend lor livelihood on manufacinrera or coi merer, and Its workers have steady employment assured them because the government's activities are being Unually extended. In IU physical aspect Washington has gained enormously In attractive ness In the last eight or ten years. U an ideal residence city, and charms appeal most potently to Amer leans with lelsnra enough lo enjoy them. It has become the winter home of families of wealth and refinement from all parts of the union, and quiet, order and beauty make living within IU borders constant sat Uon. It still has great potentialities In tbe way of architectural develop meot. and IU material prosperity Is cured by ever-broadening activities of the great governmental machine.

Former Blacksmith a Power in Congress

B EFORE Jim Tawney got Into jk>Utlr* up in Mlnt-ootii he »*.• a blarkk-nltb. He was ho rough thai they bad to throw bliu down <o put him into a boiled shirt, some of hU wannest admirers say. That blacksmith training proved mighty good experience for him. and. applying blacksmith methods to bis congressional career, he has forged tc the front so rapidly that they do say down here in Washington that If Speaker Cannon doesn't look out some day he will gel run over, because Jim Tawney Is coming with wonderful strides. Tawney U the man who would be picked out at a glance as the rex] ward politician of tbe bouse. He U Just tbe kind of a man the voter ah way* finds ready to tell him bow to veto at the primary; tbe type of man who always leads tbe revolt In a cot-

aad-drted convention—In abort, practical politician who g«U oul vote. Tawney. when he came wasn't welcomed within the big He bad lo wait around on tbe outside. Thee the blacksmith got busy. Just walked off tbe reservation, Uking enough Insurgent Republicans with him to spill tbe beans tor tbe big five. And so it came to pass that tbe big fellows reckoned with Tawney. and now be is chairman of th most important committee ip th l-ouse—appropriations Hon. Jim Is fighter from Flghtersville. But be U that kind of a fighter who knows when to fight and when to let the other fellow do tbe fighting. Only once has Tawney whipped. That once came from Coogrossman Ooebel of Cincinnati, when he got the mall carriers' pay Increased, lo spite of Tawney and Chairman Overstreet. Tbe whipping didn' tickle Tawney. 8a when the fight to hold down the appropriation agricultural bill came up Tawney quit guarding the treasury and let Scott of Ks-.iuts tackle tbe Job. Taw ncy went to bis committee room. The wiped up tbe floor with Scott

War Department Seeking a Legal Drink

T HE war department Is looking for a beverage to take tbe place of beer and whisky at army posts. The beverage must not be of tbe class of drinks prohibited by tbe suit canteen Uw. The federal courts have never passed upon tbe question of tbe percentage of alcohol which will render a beverage an intoxicant. The state courts also have been chary of deciding the question, in certain cases tbe authorities have M>okM, however. Thus, in Rhode Island. It has bean held that where beer contained 1J9 .cent, of alcohol no evidence was

Texas, a tonic containing from 24 to 4 per cent, of alcohol bag bow held to be intoxicating liquor.

tbe laws of MaasachusetU It Is held that a beverage containing more than one per cent, of alcohol at 69 Fahrenheit is intoxicating. Tbe taw in regard to tbe nonsale of Intoxicants in post exchanges, must, of course, be followed in good faith by tbe army. In tbe absence of sny federal decision as to the question at Issue, tbe sutbortties must fall back on the decision of tbe state courts. These vary materially, and. therefor*, the department may seek tbe ablution, a practical way by ascertaining t view taken in prohibition states ss to the sale of any given drink. Where post exchanges ar In a prohibition stale It is considered entirely safe to prohibit the sale in ■neb exchanges of preparations not allowed to be sold under tbe prohibition lawn of the state. Where such changes are situated In nonprohlblUon states It would be safe to ascertain whether any specific drink is allowed sold in any prohibition state and let tbs exchange be guided accord
