NEW COURT TO DEAL
WITH PATENT CASES

breach of faith on the part OF the Gov
ernment.
Our judicial system fails to meet
these plain requirements of justice. We
have. in effect. nine supreme courts for
the trial OF patent causes. They are not
bound to follow one anOther's decisions
in respect TO the same patent on the
same facts. A patentee having estab-
lished the validity of his patent in one
circuit has no certain assurance that it
will be respected in any other. a pat
ent upheld by one circuit court OF ap-
peals may be nullifed by another
An Educational Process.
To avoid, or at least minimize. danger
in the organization of the court the act
provides that the judges shall be select
ed from among the circuit judges, the
president judge to be appointed by the
President and the associate judges to be
designated from among the circuit
judges by the chief justice of the Su-
preme Court of the United States to sit
for periods OF six years each, two TO
retire every two years and be. replaced
by two others coming directly from the
circuit bench. This method of selection
would insure the presence on the bench
Of judges of known and tried ability
and experience in the general field OF
Jurisprudence, as we'll as in the patent
law. While these selections will be by
the terms of the law from among the
judges of the circuit courts. they will
be, in effect, from among the judges OF
the United States Circuit Courts of Ap-
peals.
After a period of service in the
United States Court of Appeals the as
sociate judges would return to their du
ties on the circuit bench with added

Choral Society's Plans.

The recent decision of the board of
trustees of the Choral Society to give
future concerts on Sunday nights at one
of the local theaters has settled ques-
tion which has long been agitating the
minds OF a large portion of Washington
concertgoers
For many years the concerts of the
Choral Society have been among the con-
spicuous events OF the Capital City.
They have been given in the First Con-
gregational Church, Tenth and G Streets
northwest. and have never failed 10
provide large audiences with the highest
class of oratorio music available. Prom
inent singers from New York and other
cities we're brought here TO assume the
solo work When. however, a decision
OF the District Commissioners made it
necessary for the society to seek other
quarters, the board was at loss for a
place because of the few available halls
in Washington
It has finally been decided that a local
theater will be used, and that the con-
certs in consequence, Will be given on
Sundays The decision has not met with
the unanimous approval of members OF
the Choral and ii Is said that some ac-
tive and sustaining members will with
draw. 1t is not believed that this num-
Der will be sufficient TO affect the Choir
ais plans. One of the most important
advantages the decision has made pos
sible is the cooperation OF the Wash
ington Symphony Orchestra. which could
not be gained under other circumstances.
The men are engaged at local theaters
during the week, and so would be unable
to Join the Choral at its week night
concerts.
Reginald De Koven, director of the
Symphony has been invited by josef
Kaspar. director of the Choral, to con-
duct the Christmas concert. Mr.. De
Koven has accepted and Will WELD the
baton for The Messiah" which will
open the Choral's season.

First Mass at St. Mary's.

The reorganized choir of ST. Mary's
Catholic Church Will sing its first high
mass today under the direction of Frank

his old place as organist. The mass will
begin at 1890 with a sermon by the

rier.
Mr.. Rebstock is well known in must
cal circles in Washington, and for sew
eral years has been bass soloist at ST.
Marys. When the choir was reorgan-
lied he accepted the position of direc-
tor and promises. in view OF his vide
knowledge of Catholic Church music. TO
prove OF great value. Mr.. Waldecker

bered.

.BOONES NOT GOING
TO QUIT POOLROOh
At Least They VIII Fight Before
They Do So

Thomas NJ. Fields, counsel for the
managers of the poolrOom on the Potomac
River, near the Chain Bridge, stated
yesterday that his clients have no idea
of abandoning the business. The pool
room. he said, will soon be in operation
again.
Yesterday Mr.. Fields approached
Prosecuting Attorney Mullowny with a
new proposition by which it is hoped TO
open the poolroom again. Mr.. Fields
proposes that the "bookies" do away
with the sheets and all tangible" evil
dences of gambling" and in that way
probably avoid the law.
He asked for Mr.. Mullowny's opinion
on the matter, but the Prosecuting Al
torney was non-committal
He told Mr.. Fields, however. that il
he opened the poOlrOOm detectives would
be on hand to take evidence, and report
it to the District Attorneys office. and
if the evidence reported justified it. an
other raid would most certainly be made.
There are other methods of receiving
returns from the races run in different
parts OF the country than over the tele-
graph wire which was closed to the
poolroom people yesterday. In fact
| Mr.. Fields said that every phase OF
/ the business was seriously considered
/ before the poolroom was opened, and
| he said there are ive other means OF
receiving the news from the different
/ race tracks.
| Mr. Fields said he was surprised by
| the action taken by Commissioner West
/ in the matter. He knows no law he
said which makes it unlawful to use
| telephone poles for stringing telegraph
wires. If there is, Mr.. Fields says he
would like to see it. In this connection
he said, he can point out great mum
Der of offices in Washington in which
the news Is received by telegraph over
| telephone wires. Under any circum
| stances. Mr.. Fields says, the rights o.
his clients will be thoroughly tested il
the courts and a decision rendered
against them before they abandon theiI
project.

so successfully conducted last year
Many applications have been made at
her studio. 1928 Street northeast. and
the new season about to begin augurs

Mrs. Daily has offered a prize to the

little place in which Mrs. Daily has
made her home for several years. and
in which are gathered many valuable

most picturesque little homes in Wash

northeast. is well known to the musical
profession here. In another section of
the paper, Mrs. DaIy's announcement of

puta, one Of the prominent teachers. of
his time. and the instructor of John

with the history Of the time OF Queen
Esther and Ahasuerus III. Many quaint
dances are introduced. Solos and en-
sembles are written with much skill and
a number of tuneful airs are distributed
throughout the opera The inales are
impressive and worked up with much
discretion.

Program of Athletics.
Discharges and Changes.

Not much official business was trans
acted at the headquarters of the Dis
trict National Guard this week. The
reason for this is that the officers Of the
organization refuse TO pay postage out
Of their own pockets, which they are
compelled to do since the Guard has
been deprived of the franking privilege
by the POstoffice Department. The local
militia was denied free postage by order
OF the Postmaster General on the
ground that is is a District organiza-
tiOn. This is vehemently denied by the
officers OF the National Guard They
point out the fact that the Commits
sioners have no power whatever 10 or
der them out, even in time of war AL
orders come directly from the War De-
partment. and in view of this fact an
effort is now being made to obtail
for the organization the use of the WaI
Department envelopes.
In most States OF the Union the officers
Of the National Guard are commissioned
by the governor. In the District the
President commissions them. This
would seem 10 prove couclusiyeIy. il is
the belief of many officers. that the
local militia is not part OF the Dis
| trict government.
