Anacostia policemen took a turn at

fore crowned the efforts of other Officers
who have sought to capture the fugitive
murderer

murderer. Put somehow the news WIS

De Pleased To entertain Dorsey Foultz, and
the niiniens Of the law who preserve the
peace Of Anacostia started out 20 run
down the negro. They did not succeed
in Catching him, but they had a thrilling
experience, nevertheless, and one which
has caused more excitement than Ana
costa has had before for many days.
1t all happened this way:
Shortly after neon II colored man was
seen to emerge from small grocery store
near the Washington end OF the bridge.
where he had purchased nickel's worth
of buns. Then he sauntered across the
bridge, overtaldng two AHacostfa horse
cars on the way, but he did not atteinpe
to stop thefn- As he turned and walked
along the Baltimore and Ohio tracks some
vigilsnt citizen In search of that $50 saw

A small white boy reported that he
had Seen the mau who answered Foultz's
description sitting on a big bowlder near
the ruins of old Fort Stanton and that
ne had two pistols which he laid down
beside him He was sure it was Foultz.
The officers made a very careful search
OF the place and even went throHgtI the
old underground magazine which extends
for some distance under the fort. The
magazine is walled with stone but the
entrance is nearly closed up with earth.

to admit a man.
IL WAS Thought that the man might be
inside the tunnel, aud Sergt. Anderson
ordered several officers to enter the place.
Lighting their way with candies, and with
pistols cooked ready for action, they
.crawled through the entire length. but
no enc was found inside
The search was kept up until dark last
night, but no further trace could befOunsfof

Mrs. Bradley Martin has always been a

exclusive affair ia London society In a
great IN any years
Now it has become known that of the
500 Invitations only seven have gone to
visiting Americans and the name of Mrs.
BraH ey Martin is not on the list.
What a shock and disappointment this
must be to that energetic and amn tious
woman New York peopl can wellimagine.
She has III ways aiighted on the toprEoSt

The shock mast be particularly severe
TO her when IL IS remembered that her
