The Rear Guard.

The guns are hushed. On every field
once flowing
With wars red food Mays breath
of peace Is shed.
And springs young grass and grac-
ious flowers are growing
Above the dead.
Ye gray old men whom we this day
are greeting,
Honor to you, honor and love and
trust!
Brave to the bravei Your soldier
hands are meeting
Across their dust.
Bravely fought, who charged when
flags were flying
In cannon's crash, in sereech and
scream of shell;
Bravely they fell, who lay alone and
dying
In battles hell.
Honor to them! Far graves today are
hinging
Up through the soil peace blooms to
meet the sun.
And raised heads to summer winds
are singing
Their long well DONE"
Our vanguard, they. They went with
hot blood flushing
At battles din. at joy of bugle's call.
They fell with smiles, the flood Of
young life gushing,
Full brave the fall.
But drawer We who, when the war was
ended.
And bugle's call and wave of flag
were done.
Could come back home so long left
undefended,
Your cause unwon.
And twist the useless sword to hook
or reaplng,
Rebuild the homes, set back the
empty chair,
And brave a land where waste and
want were keeping
Guard everywhere.
AL. this you did, your courage strong
upon you,
And out of ashes, wreck, a new
land rose,
Through years of war no drawer battle
won you
'Gainst fiercer foes.
And now today a prospered land is
cheering
And lifting up her voice in lusty
pride
Fol you gray men, who fought and
wrought, not fearing
Battles red tide.
Our rear guard, ye whose steps are
slowing,
Whose ranks, earth thinned, are
filling otherwhere,
Who wore the gray-the gray, alas,
still showing
On bleached hair.
For forty years you've watched this
land grow stronger,
For forty years you've been its bull
wark, stay;
larry a while; pause yet a little long
Upon the way.
And set our feet where there VII. be
no turning
And set our face straight on duty's
track,
Where there may be for stray, strange
gods NO yearning
Nor looking back.
And when for you the last tattoo has
sounded,
And on deaths silent field you've
pitched your tent,
bowed through tears, the arc of
life has rounded
To full content.
that are left will count it geurdon
royal
Our heritage no years can take
away,
That we were born of those, unfinch-
ing, loyal
Who wore the gray.

INVESTIGATION TOMORROW.
Coroner to Take Up the Case of Viii
liam Wheeler.

The killing Of William Wheeler, colored,
in Georgetown yesterday morning, while he
was attempting to escape, as told in yester-
days Star, will be investigated by the coro-
ner tomorrow morning. The inquest will
o'clock Policeman Sawyer, who fired the
Emergency Hospital. He will be kept there
until tomorrow morning. when he will be
taken to the sixth precinct station to be
present at the inquest.
Sawyer recovered from the effects of the
shock late yesterday afternoon and was
able to make a statement concerning the
unfortunate affair. He denies that he fired
the shot with any intention of shooting the
escaping prisoner. After telling Of his es-
corting two other prisoners to the van and
calling to Wheeler: Come on, old man.
the latter he said, responded, well, good
morning." and started to run. The officer
says that when he turned the corner of 33d
street he drew his weapon and pointed 1t
above and to the right of Wheelers head.
He fired for the purpose of bringing the
fleeing man to stop, but he did not expect
to stop him with the bullet. Sawyer says
he has always been careful with his re-
volver, and at target practice he always
made a poor score. His shooting Wheeler,
he says. was probably because of his poor
craftsmanship. He says he cannot describe
what his feelings were when he realized
that the man had been shot.
A sister of the dead man called on the
superintendent Of the morgue yesterday
and said she wanted Undertaken Scott to
take charge Of the remains after the in
quest is concluded. The body will be re-
moved to her home on Market street,

rfed.

An entertainment which is regarded as
both artistic and unique will be given in
the National Rifles Armory Hall, under the
direction Of Miss Mary L. Leech, tomorrow
evening, for the benefit of the Washington
Deaconess' Home. Miss Leech is conceded
to be unexcelled in the singing of darkey
melodies, which is her speciality. She has
sung before President Roosevelt and his
guests on two different occasions this sea-
son. The ente rtainment of tomorrow even
ing will consist largely of Miss Leech's own
original compositions, and 1t has been given
in other cities with marked success. She
will be assisted in the program by forty
Washington young people.
The Deaconess' Home, which will receive
the entire profits of this entertainment is
considered as a most worthy charity. The

their lives to the work of relieving the
worthy poor Of the national capital, nurs-
ing the sick poor in their homes, establish
ing free kindergartens in neglected localt-
ties and in helping the needy, irrespective

DISCUSSES ERECTION OF HOME.
Grand Lodge, I. o. o. f., Holds Session
to Consider Building Project.

TO NOuS1QSI oU14O1uS 4AoJS~~
A special session of the Grand Lodge, l..
o. O. F. Of the District Of Columbia was
held last evening in Odd Fellows Hall TO
discuss the advisability Of erecting an ooa
Fellows Home near Washington. NO &C
ton was taken last evening and the ses-
sion was adjourned for two weeks when IL
is expected that definite action Will De
taken on the matter.
A committee, consisting of E. W. Brad
ford ]. H. Crew and w. H. Mcneil. sub
mitted a report on the proposition to erect
home. In the discussion of this report
it developed that most Of the represent
atives from the different lodges favored the
project but quite a number were doubtful
as to the ability of the lodge to maintain
the home. The cost of the proposed home
was ranged from $4,000 to $4,000, and
subscriptions have been offered by several
of the lodges in the District One man, II
is said, has offered the land for the build
ing. There is no doubt but that the funds
will be forthcoming if the Grand Lodge
votes to form the odd Fellows Home AS
ISOLATION of the District of Columbia ana
empower it to acquire suitable property
and funds, and to provide ways and means
for the maintenance of the home.
Another committee of the Grand Lodge,
composed Of representative from each
lodge in the District, last evening SUBJ
mitted a report with reference to the un-
yelling Of the monument to Rev. Parker
Hall Sweet secretary of the Grand Lodge
for twenty-four years. The monument will
be erected in Oak Hill cemetery, and will
be ready for unwilling by April 26, the day
of the anniversary of the Grand Lodge. Of

ATHLETIC PARK IN VIEW.
Board of Education to Provide One for
High Schools.


The board Of education at its regular
weekly meeting at the Franklin building
last night took definite steps to secure if
for the use of the pupils in the high schools
and the higher grades. The desirability of
such action was brought to the attention of
the board in a petition signed by the chair
men of the athletic committees of Che Cen
trail, Western Eastern. Technical and Bust
ness High schools, asking that some pro-
visions be made for the encouragement of
athletic exercises among the public school
children. The petition said that there is at
present no convenient location where high
school students may play base ball and
foot ball. and that athletics in the schools
have suffered in consequence. 1t was
stated that the upper schools of the city
are worse Off in respect to recreation
grounds now than ever before. All the
available grounds. it was stated, have been
leased or otherwise appropriated by other
institutions. Georgetown University 8
grounds. the petition stated, are used by
the students there, and cannot be secured
by the high schools when desired, while
the base ball parks and other places are
not open to them.
The petition met with favorable consid-
GRAFTON and will be complied with If pos
sible. Gen. Harries was instructed to make
personal investigation and endeavor to
secure suitable grounds in convenient
location. 1t was explained that there is no
appropriation which would enable the
school authorities to lease suitable grounds.
and at the present time 1t Is believed that
the only way by which a park might be
obtained would be through public subscrip-
ton or entertainments in the various
schools interested, by which the funds nee
essary would be raised. AS one Of the
members of the board expressed 1t: What
Is wanted is public-spirited citizen 20
come to the front with generous dona-
ton. Washington's schools could then OBJ
tain recreation grounds, and great benefit
would result"

sUsTAINs CONTENTION.
Court Holds That Defendant is Entitled
to Restraining Order.

In the case of Berberich against Benedict
Roth, Peter NJ Becker. Henry ]. Rupert
and others. directors Of the National Per-
manent Building Association, Justice Gould
Tuesday evening. at the conclusion of the
argument. directed a restraining order, as
prayed for in the bill. The suit was insti-
tuted by the complainant to enjoin the de-
PENDANTS directors in the building asso-
citation from carrying into effect and en-
forcing a resolution passed by them the
10Th Of December last suspending Berbe-
rich as one of the directors of said asso-
citation, without pay. 81 q
1t was represented to the court in the bill
that certain differences had arisen between
John w. Schaefer. the treasurer of the as
ISOLATION. and the directors. and that be-
cause the complainant had disagreed with
his co-directors in adjusting these matters
and in respect to the action they took, the
defendants had entered into a scheme to
force him from the Office Of director and to
GUST him from the association. The COM
plainant further claimed that this action
on the part of the defendants was without
authority on their part; that what they
charged him with was untrue.
On behalf Of the defendants it was con-
tended that they had authority to suspend
the complainant. and that he had been gull
ty Of acts injurious to the interests Of the
association.
Justice Could in disposng of the case
held that the complainant had a right to
come into court of equity to protect his
rights as a director Of the association; that
there was no evidence that he had been
guilty Of any act which disqualified him as
director. nor was there any evidence pre-
scented to the court to support the charge
that he had been guilty of any of the acts
contended for by the defendants; that he
doubted very much from the evidence pre-
sented to him that the treasurer had been
guilty of any Wrongdoing; that the defend
ants had exceeded their authority as di-
rectors. and that the complainant was en-
titled to an order restraining them from in
terfering with him in the performance of
his duties as director in the building asso-
citation. and that they should be restrained
from so interfering with him
Messrs. c. c. Cole and Leon Tobriner rep
resented the complainant and Messrs. NJ. j.
Colbert and Wharton E. Lester the defend
ants.
