6 Collection of Happenings in the
 State Over the Line.

Last week THE OASIS man went from Hermosillo to the Italia" mine about twenty-five miles east, accompanied by Doctor John R. Magrudes, Morton Lockwood and P. H. Stouffer. They returned to Hermosillo Thursday evening, ex- cept Mir. Stouffer, who remained to erect the mill. A full description of the property will appear next week.
 Mir. H. c. Rolfe, general man. ager of the Santa Margarita" mine eighteen miles west from Soyopa, in the Hermosillo District, is pushing work upon that fine property. A tunnel is being run to cut the vein, which is large and shows finely. The tunnel is now in nearly 100 feet, and has about no feet further to go.

all District.

This week TIE OASIS editor, with the two small boys. Allen Tracey Bird IT,, and Walter Duane Bird, made a trip to the Wander ing Jew mine, Tyndall District, Santa Rita mountains, and they were in the camp and vicinity all of Thursday and parts of Wednes- day and Friday.
 At the Wandering Jew they found Mark Lulley with a large force of men driving development upon the ore body and making a fine showing of high grade ores.
 Visiting the camp were Messrs Bernard Granville and E. c. Vigeon, two we'll known mining engineers from New York. Mir. Granville is we'll known in No gales, having formerly had an office here. Both gentlemen ex- pressed themselves as greatly inn pressed with the mineral showing of the region, and they consider the Wandering Jew the making of a great mine.
 Assessment work has been in course of prosecution in many mines in the district, and active work through the coming year is anticipated upon number of properties.
 It was reported that the Zecken- dorf properties, known sometimes as the "Old Goldtree group" will be the scene of very active opera tions. L. Zeckendorf & Co., own twenty-three claims in the group, many of which have extensive workings and have shipped many thousand tons of high grade lead silver ores. It is now reported that a long tunnel is to be driven into the mountain npon which the locations are made, cutting all the lodges at a depth of more than 1000 feet, developing the ore bodies at those depths, and supply ing a cheap and effective method for extracting ores and bringing them to the surface Development work of that extent would natur- ally arouse interest in all the mines in the district and result in active operations in many more.
 The visitors stopped at the con centrator of the Arizona Gold x Copper Company, which is but about a mile and a half from the Wandering Jew camp. Mir. Harry L. Vaughn is in charge of the store. The latter has proved real con venience to the people of the neighborhood, and is doing good business.

FOR JEWISH ORPHAN HOME
Tableaux and Recital Sunday Evening
at the Lafayette.

An unusual amount of interest has been
evidenced in the approaching entertain
ment, consisting of Biblical tableaux and
musical recital, to be given tomorrow even
ing at the Lafayette Opera House. The en-
tertainment which in advance gives album
dant promise of being most delightful
event, will be in the nature of a benefit for
the Jewish Orphan Home, and the program
has been arranged for under the auspices
Of the Washington section, Council of Jew
ish Women.
The event has occasioned a marked de-
gree of interest, not only because of the
strong claims of the worthy charity in be-
half of which the entertainment is to be
given, but also because of the unique and
novel character of the entertainment it
self. Probably the most striking feature
of the entertainment will be the series of
twelve Biblical pictures representing 1O3
characters in ancient Jewish history These
tableaux have never before been produced,
but are to be presented in Washington for
the first time in any city n connection with
the Jewish Orphan Home benefit.
The pictures are originally designed and
posed by Mrs. May Whitney Emerson. and
the coloring, costumes. etc. are based upon
the designers personal knowledge of orien-
tai life. The costumes have been designed
and made under the personal supervision of
Mrs. Emerson, especially for this produc-
ton, and a great amount of the material
for the costumes, as well many of the
jewels and ornaments to be worm were Sc
cured direct from Damascus.
Each picture will be posed within a large
frame, especially built and decorated for
this entertainment, and each tableau will
have a color scheme peculiar to itself the
idea being to express in the coloring so far
as is possible, the particular emotion asso-
ciated with the picture. In addition to ac-
comprising this high artistic aim 1t is pro-
posed to give an accurately historical rep
resentation of the characters.
The tableauX to be produced are as fol-
lows: Abraham and the Three Angels, the
Expulsion of Hagar, Rebekah at the Well
the Finding of Moses, Ruth and Naomi, Ruth
and BoaZ, Sisera and Jael, Deborah's Song
OF Triumph, Jephthah's Daughter, Queen
Esther Accusing Hannah, Solomon Judging
the Mothers, the Queen of Sheba. The ar
tistic effect of the pictures will be intensi-
fled by the introduction of appropriate in
cidental music during the tableaux.
That the musical recital will be of a high
character is assured by the list of musi-
clans who will participate. Among others
| who will contribute numbers to the pro-
gram will be Mrs. Nellie Wilson Shir-Cliff,
soprano; Mr.. S. Monroe Fabian. piano solo
list OF the Washington Symphony Orchestra;
Prof. Anton Kaspar, violnist, and Mr.. Ed
ward Droop. pianist Mrs Charles Gold
smith has charge of the musical program.
The management of the entire entertain
ment has been in the hands of Mrs. Joel
Hillman, president of the Council of Jew
ish Women, and from the large advance

former standing in front of the church
at the intersection of Vermont avenue
and 14th street was projected and carried
to an early completion.
This statue of the "Iiberator of modern
thought was unveiled in 1884. The win

made memorial. The names of Luther

ADJoURNs UNTIL MONDAY.
The Senate Listens to Mr.. Bacon's Plea
for Conciliating Colombia.

Mr.. Bacon continued to speak in the
Senate yesterday afternoon on his resolu-
ton looking to the adjustment of our differ
ences with Colombia by arbitration. Mr..
Bacon made an extended speech in support
of the proposition, holding that even if
there was no truth In Colombia's charges
the mere fact that charges were made
raised an issue which should be met in a
concliatpry manner
Much of Mr.. Bacon's discourse was de-
voted to presenting the question of arbitra-
ton for the settlement of International dis
puteS, and he quoted many eminent Amer1-
cans of the past in support of that policy.
He reached the conclusion that the people
of the United States were thoroughly COM
mitted to policy of concession to avoid
war in all proper cases, and he commended
that in the present instance the United
States could not afford to violate the well
established rule.
He said we should first proceed by con-
ciliatory advances toward Colombia, and in
case our proffer should not be favorably
received then the entire matter should be-
submitted to arbitration.
He said even if we assumed that all of the
representations of the United States were
true and all those of Colombia false, still
there was an issue, and the proper way to
settle 1t was the way of peace and concili-
alton He did not contend that our right to
recognize Panama should be arbitrated, but
was presented in the differences that have
arisen over the construction OF the treaty of
1916. All he wanted was that we should APP
proach the Colombian government in a
proper spirit, and not treat that country in
naughty and defiant manner.
Speaking of the proposition to tender the
good offices of the United States looking to
settlement of the controversy between Co
lombia and Panama, Mr.. Bacon said that
this mode of proceeding would be made
quate, because 1t would not take into ac-
count Colombia's differences with the
United States. In this connection he re-
iterated his conviction that the Panama rev.
olution was an accomplished fact, and add
ed his further conviction that the canal
would be built at Panama. This being true,
he argued that there Is no more important
duty than to remove whatever source of
friction there may be-
He had heard it stated that Colombia
would be perfectly conciliated If the United
States would devote ten million dollars for
the purpose of building railroad connect
ing BogOta with the canal, and If such were
the case he did not believe the United States
could do better than to meet the suggestion
in favorable way,
Mr.. Platt (ConnecticuD suggested that If
it was to be the understood policy of the
United States to buy its peace with all
countries which made claims against this
country, or have controversies with it, we
should have abundance of opportunity
for the expenditure of our money.
The Senate ati4.53 went into executive
session, and at 5:15 pm. adjourned until
Monday. Tv,sq1

VISITED BY FIRE F|END
The Luther Memorial Church
Badly Damaged.
ITS TOWER DESTROYED
BIG ORGAN REGARDED AS PRAC-
TICALLY A WRECK.
The Loss Estimated to Be About $685.
900, but the Edifice Fully
Insured.

Fire visited Luther Memorial Church at
Vermont Avenue and street last night
about 10 o'clock, while a reception to the
pastor Rev. ]. G. Butler, was being held,
and caused damage to the amount of about
$4,000. forcing the receiving party to leave
the building. 1t was not until the smoke
and blaze got uncomfortably near the
pariShioners, however, that they retreated,
and then most of them remained on the
street in the vicinity. The snow-covered
streets rendered it utterly impossible for
the horses of the fire department to make
fast time in responding to the several
alarms. and those who were watching the
progress of the flames almost begun to
think that the firemen would not reach the
edifice in time to even save the outer walls.
The fremen did their best, however, and
no time was lost in getting to work after
arriving at the building.
Three engines n truck and Acting Assist
ant Chief T. D. Martin responded to the
first alarm. which had been turned in by
the Rev. Charles Butler, son of the pastor
of the church. The assistant chief realized
that the few companies on hand could not
cope with the blaze, and he sent in addf-
tional alarms until twelve companies. in
Guiding the water tower, were in the vicini
ty of the church. Chief Belt of the fire de-
partment and Maj. Sylvester, chief of
of their respective departments to avoid
confusion and prevent injury. The task of
fighting the flames was hard one and was
rendered all the more difficult by reason of
the amount of snow that covered the build
ing and pavements. 1t required consider
able time for the firemen to get the flames
under control and it was late when the last
company reached its quarters.
The Evidence of Blaze
The reception to the pastor of the church
last night was in celebration Of his seventy
eighth birthday. Many members of the
church and other friends of the pastor were
in attendance, and so enjoyable was the
affair that they We're in no hurry to get

small amount of smoke coming from the
ceiling of the main auditorium near the big
chandelier in the center of the room gave
notice that there was something wrong in
the air chamber between the ceiling and
the roof The blaze was then only small
one. and il was the opinion of the people
in the church that a bucket of water would
end the trouble There way to get
the water so high, there was no ladder
about the church long enough to reach from
the floor to the ceiling. In the absence of
such a ladder the only alternative for

Rev. DR.. John G. Butler, the present
pastor, was born in Cumberland. Nd, and
was educated in the institutions of Gettys-
burg, Pa. He came to Washington as
pastor of ST. Paul's, corner of 18th and H
streets Immediately upon being ordained
a minister in 1919.
Expansion Policy.
The policy of the church has ever been one
of expansion. The membership has been close
to 400 for some years. lions Church, cor
ner of 9th and P streets northwest was
planted by Luther Place Memorial Church.
Also the Church of the Redeemer; working
among the colored people of the city, and
of which Rev. L. E. Wiseman is pastor,
was founded by the Memorial. Another
mission of the church is Keller Memorial,
9th street and Maryland avenue northeast.
of which Rev. c. II. Butler, son of the
Memorial pastor, is in charge.
In the annex of the church building the
Lutheran Eye Ear and Throat Infirmary,
for the free treatment of the INDECENT poor,
regardless of race, sex religion was es-
tablished. The good done by this institu-
tior. grows from year to year. 1t Is i'll
charge of DR.. W. K. Butler. who has an
able staff. 1t is supported wholly by vol
untary contributions, and now awaits the
gift of building or money to expand into a
hospital. The congregation of the Luther
Place Memorial Church is free from debt.
