DIR. BUTLER's BIRTHDAY.
Members of His Congregation Make 1t
Pleasant for Him,

Rev. DR.. j. G. Butler, pastor of the
Luther Memorial Church, was rendered a
reception by the members of his congrega-
ton last night to congratulate him upon
the SEVENTEEN anniversary of his birth. The
affair was an entire surprise to DR.. Butler
and a success in every way.
The reception took place in the Sunday
school room of the Memorial Church on
| Thomas Circle, which was prettily deco
rated with flags, evergreens and ported
palms. DR.. and Mrs. Butler received the
guests, assisted by a committee of ladies'
representing the church and the Young
Peoples Society of Christian Endeavor
These were: Mrs. Marin, Mrs. w. H. Fin
excl, Mrs. James Y. Davis, Mrs. George
Graham, Mrs. Slaybaush, Mrs. Randolph,
Mrs. Easily, Mrs. F. Schneider, Miss Grace
Butler, Miss Seiffert, Miss Hurley, Miss
Bright, Miss Robinson. Miss jackson and
Mrs. W. H. Mickle.
After a musical program contributed by
Prof y. W. Meyer and Mr.. Schultz, Dr. j.
W. Graham, representing the congregat ion
presented DR.. Butler with d rocking chair
for his study and q handsome lamp. DIR.
Butler responded briefly. thanking the con-
gregation for their sympathy and love, of
which he had received abundant assur-
ances during his pastorate. He spoke of
himself as one of the young men in the
church, and would almost believe, he said
that his father had made a mistake of ten
years when he entered the date of his birth
as January %, 1926.
An elaborate supper was served by COM
nlittee of the Christian Endeavor Society in
whose charge all the arrangements for the
reception were placed, during which greet
ings ON behalf of the congregation, the
Sunday school and the Society of Christian
Endeavor We're given by Mr.. L. F. RAN
dolph, Superintendent William H Finckei
and President c. E. Paul. Mr.. L. D. Alden
of st. Pauls English Lutheran Church
brought the greeting OF the friends of other
churches.
By q singular coincidence there were
present last evening two other, Lutheran
ministers, each of whom was born in the
same year with DR.. Butler. They were
Rev. DR.. Louis NJ. Kuhns and Rev. Dr.
Samuel Domer, the latter being just six
days ahead of DR.. Butler in the race of
time. Both of these divines spoke, and
10th of them look quite as hale and hearty
as he n whose honor they were present
A number of Lutheran clergymen and
their wives were present at the reception
as we'll as pastors of churches of other
denomina tons. All day yesterday Dr. But
Ter was the recipient of handsome floral
tributes, and one feature of the day was
specially pleasant to him, and to which he
referred in his address last evening, name

bers of his junior Endeavor Society,"

MAI. ARMIES, CASE
Mandate Of the Court Of Appeals Filed in
the Lower Court
Judge Bradley Makes Some Remarks
I'm Complying With the
Directions Given.

The mandate Of the Court of Appeals in
the case Of Major Geo. A. Armes was filed
In the lower court this morning, counsel
for the military authorities, Mr.. ]. N. Nor
rison, waving the enforcement of that
much of the mandate which directed Judge
Bradley to issue a warrant for Major
Armes arrest and then commit him to the
custody of Col. Henry w. Closson. the COM
mandant Of the Washington arsenal.
Judge Bradley's Remarks.
Judge Bradley took occasion to remark
that 1t was well known when he dis
charged Major Armes from the custody of
the military authorities he was not thereby
relieved from the enforcement of military
law. He had merely decided that Major
Armes' arrest was not necessary. The
Court or Appeals, It seemed, differed with
him on that point, and it now appeared
mat the appeal was taken only to Justify
the original arrest Of Major Armes, made
Upon the order of Gen. schofield..
so. while this case,'' sarcastically re-
marked Judge Bradley, has been adver-
Used as real fox hunt, with all the ac-
GOVERNMENTS Of dogs, horses. riders and
leal HVe Iox, II now turns out that 1t was
no fox at ALL
The judge remarked that he was glad
that Mr Morrison did not insist upon the
full enforcement of the mandate of the
Court Of Appeals, for it seemed to him that
all ne could do would be to order it enter
ed, dismiss the writ of habeas corpus pray
ca Tor by Major Armes, and then remand
MIN to the custody of Col. Closson. 1t
seemed to him, said Judge Bradley, that he
mad no power to issue warrant for his
re-arrest.
Mr.. j. H. Ralston of counsel for Major
Armes stated that as the military authori-
Ties mad secured an affirmation by the
Court OF Appeals Of their views, and as
counsel for Major Armes had secured his
Liberty, they would offer objections to
the court making an order in accordance
with Mr.. Morrison's suggestions.
No Conflict Between Authorities.
Mr.. Morrison explained that he wished to
remove all thoughts Of a conflict between
the military and civil authorities, and ad-
mitted that he did not know whether Major
Armes ever would be tried by court-ma rtial.
The military authorities, 1t seemed to him.
however, possess the same power to arrest
MAJOR ArmeS now that they before pos
SeSSed.
Judge Bradley stated that there had been
no conflict between the military and civil
authorities, and certainly none between the
court and the War Department. Yet, he be-
lieved, no trial by court rtial of Major
Armes was ever really intended, and 1t did
appear to him that the whole case was moth
ing but a piece of spite work on the part of
Gen. Schofield. The fact that there now APP
pedred no intention to prosecute Major
Armes justified that belief
The matter was finally disposed of by
Judge Bradley stating that he direct an
order to be entered in accordance with the
suggestions of counsel
Mr. Ralston suggested that the order could
be nothing but skeleton of the mandate
when the judge remarked: We'll we will

years a student at the American College in
Rene, and is peculiarly fitted to give q
most authentic account both Of the history
ard points of interest, ancient and modern,
of that famous city. The pictures which
were used were especially elaborate, the
most notable ones being those of the
Coliseum, St. Peters, the American Col
