good nature. At the court ball which
followed she was an honored guest.
Prince George of Crete and Prince An
drea of Greece wed with each other for
the privilege of dancing with her.
Their attentions occasioned no little eX-
element in the city.
When the news of her conquest
reached her father, who had remained
at his pastoral duties in this city, he
said: Il hope her head will not be
turned. l do not wish her to wed
nobleman and sell herself for an empty
title
In the light of succeeding events it
was evident that his fears were I'M
founded.
Prior to her departure from this coun-
try, and, indeed, some of her intimate
acquaintance say, even when they
were both children, Miss Colfelt had
met young Earl Taylor, son of Milton
Taylor, prominent banker and a
member of the Toledo Board of Public
Service. During his stay at West Point
, they met frequently, but after gradua-
ton he was assigned to the artillery
service, and duty called him to other
parts of the country, their pathways
lying apart for the time.
1t was the memory of this gallant
young officer that made the attentions
of the royal courtiers distasteful to her.
After discouraging them by all means
in her power Miss Colfelt finally left
Athens and returned to Philadelphia.
Lieut.. Taylor was starting for service
in the Philippines, but the love of years
| triumphed and they were engaged
formally. He expected to be away but
a short time, and it was agreed that
upon his return the wedding should
take place. Only the most intimate
| friends of the family We're made ac-
| quainted with the facts.
Recent developments in the far dis
| tant islands have rendered uncertain
the time of Lieutenant Taylor's return
and he so Informed Miss Colfelt I'm
| daunted by the difficulties of so long
| trip the young woman decided to make
| the journey alone and to join her fiance
| in the far distant land. She left Phil
adelphia, going directly to Toledo,
where she was the guest of Lieuten-
ant Taylor's parents.
Following the wedding Lieutenant
and Mrs. Taylor will devote several
| months to a tour of Japan, going aft
/, erward to Manila, where he is stationed
to remain for probably three years.

The League baseball games are over,
the last score made and the Kameha-
mehas are the champions. True the
championship was settled before yes
terday's game, but the victors further
increased their standing by defeating
the Elks, though not until the latter
had put up a hard game and made the
Rams fight through eleven innings for
their victory.
Kaai pitched for the Elks and his
work was fully as good as Reuters. al
though both men gave bases at critical
moments. The game wasn't fast but it
was steady and the teams evenly
matched, Kamehameha having perhaps
slight advantage
The Kams scored first with one run
in the second inning followed by the
Elks with two runs in the third Two
and one for the Elks in the sixth even
ed the score 3-3 and it remained that
way until the last of the eleventh when
Vanatta made the lucky strike bringing
in d. Kekuewa.
The Elks realized that it was their
last chance and played accordingly
holding down their opponents in fine
style Their chief trouble seemed to be
having weak men at the bat when the
bases were full or there was a good
chance to bring in man. German was
y A.
first.
There was fair sized crowd at the
game which began at 8 p. m. Berger
and his band were in attendance and
some of the late selections played were
applauded by the crowd.
FIRST INNING.
The Elks went to bat and Moore
hunted but failed to score Kennedy
went out, pitcher to first. Knight was
safe on an error by Vanatta, and
Cunha struck out.
Sheldon went out 'on a grounder to
Kennedy and Lemon on one to Moore
Jones struck out.
SECOND INNING.
Kaai knocked a foul fly to right
which Fern gathered in. Kia, who has
only appeared once before this season,
struck out. TAYLOR followed suit.
Vanatta knocked a fly to center which
Moore missed. Reuter- hit a hot ground
er and was safe. J. Kekuewa sent
ball to Moore who threw wild to catch
er and Vanatta came home. D. Keku-
eva flew out to left. Plunkett was nit
and took his base. Richards struck
out. With bases full Sheldon tried hard
to land but only succeeded in knocking
a foul fly into Cunha's hands.
THIRD INNING.
Reuter- gave Cheatem his base, and
also allowed German to reach first on
an error. Moore sacrificed. Kennedy
hit a grounder to pitcher, who threw
to catcher who missed and Cheatem
was safe. The ball was thrown to
Vanatta who returned the ball home
German. Knight followed

PLEA OF GUILTY.
Andrew Holland Likely to 90 to Prison
for Twenty-Five Years.

Andrew Holland. colored. indicted for
rape and attempt to rape. whose case was
set for trial today in Criminal Court. No. 1.
withdrew his plea of not guilty and pleaded
guilty.
Justice Pritchard remarked that he was
averse to accepting plea Of guilty in any
rape charge unless the presenting attorney
should be satisfied that the penalty was one
in which the death penalty should not be
imposed. The court ventured the opinion
that a strict execution Of the law in rape
cases throughout the country would tend
to lessen the number Of lynchings.
Assistant United States Attorney Turner
explained that he had investigated the case
and was satisfied TIT 1t did not call for
capital punishment. Hollands plea OF
guilty was thereupon accepted.
It is understood that when the Depart
ment Of justice designates an institution to
which prisoners from the District shall be
committed. the defendant will be sentenced
to Imprisonment Ior a term Of not less
than twenty-five years.

REMAINING THE STREETS.
Bill Giving Commissioners Exclusive
Authority in Matter.

Col. John Biddle, Engineer Commissioner,
has submitted to his associates on the
board the draft Of bill granting the Com
missioners authority to rename streets.
avenues. alleys. highways and reservations
in that part of the District Of Columbia
outside the city of Washington. Upon Its
approval by Commissioners mcfarland and
West the bill will be transmitted to Senator
Gailinger and Representative Babcock
with the recommendation that 1t be en-
acted into a law.
The Commissioners consider that some
system of names for streets in the county
Is imperative. At present, 1t Is stated,
much confusion exists because OF the lack
Of system in naming the streets In the out
lying districts. For instance, one dlrect
and continuous street passing through
Brookland, seven blocks in length, has four
different names-Hartford, Austin. Calves
ton and Fulton. Such instances, 1t Is stat
ed, are quite common. The proposed Dill
provides that the Commissioners shall Sc
lect definite system of naming the streets
in the county. They already have pro-
visional system but intend to give the mat
ter further consideration before acting nm
ally in the matter and adopting the sys-
tenn proposed to be recorded under the Dill.
The bill provides:
THAT the Commissioners of the District
of Columbia be authorized and directed to
name and rename streets, avenues, alleys,
highways ana reservations III that part VI
the District lying outside the city Of Wash
ington, under such system OF naming as
they shall see fit to adopt, and such names,
when recorded in the office of the surveyor
of the District shall thereafter be the off,
cial names Of such streets, avenues, alleys,
highways and reservations.
Section 2. That upon the abandonment
of any street. avenue, road or highway, or
part thereof, under the provisions Of an
act to provide a permanent system OF high
ways in that part of the District Of Column
bia lying outside of Cities approved March
2, 1893, and the amendment thereto, APP
proved June Is, 1898, the title to the land
contained in such abandoned portion shall
revert to the owners Of the land abutting
thereon"
The Columbia Heights Citizens Associa-
ton, which recently forwarded to the Com
missioners a resolution requesting the Dis
trict authorities to adopt some system for
the naming of streets in the county, will
be informed of the drafting Of the present
bill and that 1t will shortly be transmitted
to Congress-
