AGED BUT INDEPENDENT
Joseph Bailey, Aged s5, Going te
Philadelphia Afoot.

An elderly man was being escorted up the
stone steps In front Of the ninth precinct
police station Tuesday. afternoon, and at
tracted the attention of bystander, who
volunteered to render him what assistance
he could. Joseph Bailey was the name
given by the aged man, who stated that he
was eighty-five years old, There was a
charge Of vagrancy to be filed against him.
This was to have been done in order to
have the court render him assistance. Why
he should have to be placed behind the bars
he could not understand. mss .--
I've done nothing he said, land have
never had door locked on me in my life. y
His story was that he was walking
through the city on his way from Peters,
burg, Va, to the home of his daughter, in
Philadelphia. He said he had fed hogs for
people in Virginia, but he got too old to
work and had to shift for himself. Lieut..
Daley assured him he would not have to
go behind the bars, but that he would be
made comfortable in a room and would be
furnished something to eat.
Bailey's statement was that he was a
confederate veteran. and that he had
walked here from Petersburg. He had been
without food for two days, he stated, and
he said he was willing to resume his tramp
to Philadelphia. He was taken to the Home
ward Bound Mission, on Pennsylvania ave-
nue., where Capt. Haslem gave him food
and made him comfortable for the night.
Bailey was profuse in his thanks for what
had been done for him, and started away
without waiting to see If the board of
charities would give him transportation.

Rosslyn. Va.

Mrs. Adeline Shilling, wife of Martin
Shilling. resident of Rosslyn. Va, COM
mitted suicide last night by taking car
bolic acid. The woman was found lying
in front of 1871 street about 1910 O'Clock.
Her mouth had been severely burned by
the acid and the vial from which she had
taken the poison was found on the side

at Braces drug store. in Georgetown, stat
ing that she wanted 1t for household uses.
Three months ago. 1t is alleged. Mrs. Shil-
ling endeavored to purchase revolver

was frank enough to tell him that she
wanted 1t for the purpose of self-destruc-
tion. Detective Flather arrested her at that
time and she was held at the house Of de-
tentfon until her husband called for her.
Her argument at that time was that she

was determined to end her life. If she could
not get a revolver. she said. she would get
poison. Mrs. Shilling told the police at
that time that she had been sick since the
birth of her last child. and she was tired

AN OFFICIAL AFFAIR.
Use of Penalty Envelopes in Connec-
ton With Celebration.

IlOu w iii SS1COAdLAOA.
Some criticism has been called forth by
the action of the Commissioners in sending
out notices concerning the late celebration
of Independence day in official penalty en-
velopes, permitting the free use of the
mails. Particular criticism has been made
concerning the notices sent out of appoint
ments on the finance committee, these no
tices being coupled with an invitation to
subscribe to the celebration fund.
When asked about the matter this morn
ing Commissioner Macfarland stated that
the Commissioners of the District OF Co.
there should be an official celebration of
the Fourth of July 1T was fully within
their power to do So" he added. Every
step that was taken by them in prepara-
ton for the celebration was taken officially,
and not personally or individually. They
appointed the. necessary committees to
make the necessary arrangements, just as
they have appointed committees in former
years for other and similar purposes, as, for
example, for the celebration of Flag day.
or for the collection of money for the relief
of the famine sufferers In India. These
committees for the Fourth of July celebra-
ton were notified of their appointment and
duties officially, and all the meetings of the
the board room Of the Commissioners at the
District building Persons appointed on the
finance committee were notified of their
appointment and Of their duty, which was
to send in subscriptions. No use of the
official envelope was made other than was
strictly in accordance with the official
character Of the celebration"

IN ANNUAL ASSEMBLY
SPANISH WAR VETERANS OF DIS
TRICT TO ELECT OFFICERS.
Commander Hodgson Declines Re
Election-Movement to Have Com
mander-in-C Chief Succeed Himself.
Commander

Commander Frederick 8. Hodgson Of the
Corps of the District of Columbia, Spanish
War Veterans, has annpunced that the an
nual assembly Of that sbody, for the cleo
ton of officers and delegntes to the Ma
tional Assembly and the transaction of
other important business. will be held in
the first week of August at the new head
quarters on 9Th street Commander Hodg-
son has been urged to enter the contest
for reelection, but he has declined to ac-
cept a denomination. The two names most
prominently mentioned at this time for
commander Of the District corps are DR..
Lon D. Sheets of Miles Command, who is
the present corps Quartermaster, and Capt.
G.. Leyburn Shorey, commander Of John
Jacob Astor Command, 8. w. w., OF the
Soldiers Home, and who Is member of
the national council Of administration.
A movement has been started for. the re-
election of Col. M. Emmet Urell as COM
mander-in-chief of the national body of
Spanish War Veterans The arguments
being used to bring about this result refer
to the great prosperity of the organization
during his present administration, eighty
new commands having been mustered in
during the past ten months. Those who
favor Colonel Urells reelection also say
the fact that he is chairman of the COM
