DISTRICT GOES INDIANA
THREE CHILDREN BETTER
Washingtonian Has Three Pairs of
Twins and Three Singles

Commissioner Macfarland has re-
ceived informa ton that will put the
District OF Columbia in the class with, if
not ahead of, the State OF Indiana in the
matter of opponents to race suicide.
]. Mcdonald, living ct 926 Sheridan
Street northwest, has Just become the
father of the third pair of twins. Mr..
Mcdonald has three children besides tho
triple set of twins, and the fact was
made known to the Commissioner by
W. H. McCarty, who does not believe in
allowing Indiana to claim all anti-race
suicide honors.
Mr.. MeCarty was induced to this ac-
tion by a dispatch from indianapolis
stating that Stephen A. Reeves, of New
Albany, InG., had become the father OF
third set of twins and the fact had
been communicated to President Roose-
welt. The Chief Executive will be
promptly informed OF the gratifying ad-
dition TO Mr.. McDonald's family.

USE OF PARTY WALLS
INVOLVED I'M A SUIT

Proceedings were instituted in the
District Supreme Court yesterday which
involves the question of the application
OF the District building regulations TO
property outside the city limits. The
suit was instituted by Thomas c. Noyes,
who contends that a wall of his build
ing has been used by William w Sou
der, who is named as defendant. The
regulation originally was applicable
only 10 property lying within the city
limits. II is contended that no right is
vested in Congress or the Commission
ers 10 extend the power of the regula-
tion beyond the city limits. and the
ground is taken that this would be un-
constitutional and would in effect be
taking private property without due
process of law.

ARTHUR COLYER WORKED
RICHMOND TO A TURN
Manager of Jefferson Hotel
One of His Victims.
ALSO BUNCOED PHYSICIAN
Employed Him as an Attendant and
Left Him Broke at Chat
tanooga.

a morning caller at Police Headquar-
ters was P. NJ. Fry, manager of the JEFF
ferson Hotel, OF Richmond, Va, one of
the victims OF Arthur s. Colyer. the
Washington lawyer. who was fined S1O0
ID Police Court day or two ago for
passing bogus checks on Kramer, the
florist, in default of which he went to
Jail for five months.
According to Mr. Fry, Colyer came
TO the Virginia capital last fall during
the horseshOw. and cut wide swath.
with him he brought a young woman
from Orange, TO whom he announced he
was engaged to be married. He showed
the young woman every attention, and
it was generally understood that the
engagement existed. Later 1t was found
out that he had casually met her on the
train on the way to Richmond The
young woman must have heard the stor-
les told by Colyer concerning an en-
gagement, for before she left it is said
she refused to accompany Colyer into
box at the horseshow, which he en-
gagged
Employed Private Doctor.
Almost as soon as Colyer reached
Richmond he called to his service DR..
Mosely. a young Richmond physician.
Colyer later informed the doctor that
he wished to take him with him on his
travels as his private attending physi-
clan. Dr. Mosely happened TO know OF
Colyer's family. which is prominent in
Nashville, Tenn, so he accepted the
position. He also vouched for Colyer to
Mr.. Fry, so that when Colyer presented
check for S119.25. 1t was readily hon.
ored, as was a second check for 800.
Colyer and his private physician left
the city before the checks were return
ed protested. They travelled together as
far as Chattanooga, when Colyer asked
the physician 10 wait for him while he
ran up home and got some money by
the way he is said TO have remarked,
'let me have all the money you may
have on you. for barely have enough TO
get home The private physician there
upon shelled out some $35. and he has
Lot seen Colyer since.
Requisition Delayed.
Mr. Fry explained the delay in the ar
rival of requisitiou papers for 6olyer.
Governor Montague Is taking a vaca
tion, as is also Commonwealth Attor
ney Richardson. Judge Witt. who has
the power 10 appoint an acting Common
wealth's attorney. also is out Of town,
at the bedside of a sick relative, and
therefore nothing can be done until one
OF these gentlemen returns. Mr.. Fry ex-
pressed himself as gratifed that Colyer
is in jail, so that there may be time to
secure him for trial in Richmond.
