An Honorable Career.
John M. Wilson. brigadier general. q. 8.
A., retired, was born in the District of CO.
lumbia October 8. 1897, and besides having
been intimately associated with enterprises
and events of national Importance and
scope, he has throughout his long and USE
full career always been deeply interested In
District matters, and has kept in close
touch with everything that has transpired
here for the past forty years or more.
Since his retirement in 1901 he has de-
voted almost all of his time to District
affairs. and at present is the vice president
of the Washington Board Of Trade No
citizen of the capital city Is held In higher
esteem by his fellow citizens than is Gen.
Wilson.
His birthplace was in street northwest.
nearly opposite the Epiphany Church His
father was born here in 1906. on street
cherished by General Wilson is letter
written by his mother July %, 1924 to her
uncle in Philadelphia. describing the Fourth
OF July celebration In this city on the
previous day. The ties of family and his
own early life thus give him an added In
terest In the development and identifying
of Washington.
Gen. Wilson started out to earn his own
living when he was not more than twelve
years of age. Before he was sixteen he
went to California by way of Panama

that General Wilson has always taken an
interest in the work of the board Of trade,
and since his retirement from active serv-

He is one of the men who never fail to

A native OF this city, he has never ceased

Says Her Daughter Was kidnapped.

Mrs, Henrietta Haswell, 227 Ala

nett yesterday that her daughter.
Monica. II years of age, had been kid
naped by Mrs. Martha Adair, who is
only 1s years of age She believed
that Mrs. Adair was hiding the girl
somewhere in F'ruitvale. Detective
Bailey was detailed on the case and he
applied to Judge Mogan for warrant
for Mrs. Adair's arrest on a charge of
child stealing, but the Judge declined
to issue it because there was no evil
dence that Mrs. Adafr had used force
or intimidation. A warrant was. how
ever, issued for the girls arrest on a
charge of vagrancy. She is about to
become a mother.

CraW, who is now the Hawaiian super

mended TO the Board of Commissioners
Of Agriculture and Forestry that all
fruits from China, Japan and other
Asiatic points shall be denied entrance

The dreaded fruit fly abounds in
these places. These flies belong 10 the
same family as the melon-cucumber
fly, against which California has quar-
antined. So great have been the raw
ages Of the fruit flies that in Queens
land and Western Australia fruit can
hardly be raised. In Cape Colony,
South Africa, fruit trees must be COW
cred with mosquito netting TO enable
the horticulturists TO raise a crop.
This makes fruit growing a very ex-
pensive business, even where the Gov
eminent buys the netting and furnishes

Importations Of fruit from China and
japan have recently been received at
Honolulu in which also were contained
the larvae of the Chinese fruit moth
