The christening of the new Norfolk and
Washington line steamer Woodbury.. which
is to run on the ferry route between Alex

Hollingsworth shipyard. yesterday. was a
most enjoyable function. The day was an
ideal one and the scene on the launching

Just before the vessel went overheard the
Harlan & Hollingsworth corporation had
photograph made of the party on the stand
and the vessel as she lay the stocks.
Little Miss Mary Simon Callahan, grand
daughter of Mr.. John Callahan. second vice

the hull to move, but, like true Virginian,
she was equal to her part, and when the
time came she broke the bottle of wine and
pronounced the words of christening in a
voice that was distinctly heard all over the
stand. AS the vessel was sliding down the
ways she was presented with large bunch
Of roses by the shipbuilding company.

Unable to Recover

The Anacostia police and Sheriff Middle
ton of Prince George county, Md, had an

while investigating a theft of about $500

Hennie Young. colored. resident of Car
field, was arrested and she admitted her
guilt. The woman had been in the habit of
visiting the saloon once or twice a week
and working about the place for Mr.
Franz While cleaning out the bar yester-
day she found a pocketbook hidden behind
the glasses and took IT. The proprietor did
not miss the money until after her de-
parture. Then he reported the matter to
ths police and Officers Dent and Weber ar
rested Mrs. Young. She was placed In the
cUstoday of the sheriff and taken to MARI
boro
After admitting her guilt she told several
stories regarding what she had done with
the money, and was brought back to Ana
costa, reaching there about 3 o'clock this
morning. Her first statement was that she
had secreted the money in pile of wood
but could not tell It's exact location Then
She said she gave it TO a relative but he
denied her statement. Another relative
name was mentioned, but he also denied
that there was any truth IN her statement
Failing to find the money the sheriff re-
turned with his prisoner to Marlboro and
held her for hearing. The police are still
endeavoring to find the money.

Komura Talks English.

Komura talks English as most educated
japanese do with a clipped precise accent,
shearing off the little curlycues at the
ends of long words and sticking lot OF
vocal hyphens in where they don't rightly
belong Occasionally at his meals little
smile begins at his mouth. bat it always dies
aborning. and is buried in the deep wrinkles
that seam either side of his face.
Ordinarily the CLINT of his back eye, ike
water at the bottom of deep we'll, is the
only sign of life in his furroWed face. HIS
hands are small Woman's and as
shaIely as many debutante would find her
pink toes crowded i'll the tiny shoes that
the wizard plenipotentiary of the mlkado
wears.
Komura, so members of his suite say de-
spises the high hat of commerce. His ex-
cellency prefers a derby with dome-like
mosque and a brim like a mile track. He
threw aside the high hat which he wore on
the occasion of his visit to President Roose-
welt as soon as the function was over, and
has not had it on since.
Rosen's hat is a cap-a white yachting
cap-with a slick visor. He wears 1t with
his automobile toys and with his dinner
Jacket.
Takahira covers his round black scalp
with a gray SLOUGH, s1.9S anywhere on Sd
avenue, which comes almost down to his
lobes and puts his heavy feline face in
half eclipse.
Witte don't play any favorite in hats
sometimes a soft black one and sometimes
a slick high one.
