Taking the Family Away

This is the last month of the sum
mer season and in it the few men who
have waited so long will remove their
families either To the country or sea-
shore While away the parents viii
wear negligee clothes, dribble at the
newspapers and magazines. sit on
broad porches and play bridge. or gos-
sip, or go fishing. 1t is the young
sters. however, who will get most
pleasure out OF the journey. Bare
legs and broad fields. shallow wading
places in the creek and deeper swim
ming holes, orchards, a great garret
for rainy days. and "punkin moon
shines" pretty nearly complete the
earthly paradise Of children
Those OF us who stay here and work
will be glad to know that the vacation
redeems in reality all the promises of
the prospect. that the gossip was
harmless. the sport good, and the rest
invtgorating for the elders: that the
play was Jus fine" for the children.
But there is one thing these emf
grants can do before they go, or ac-
complish at long distance if they are
already gone, which will help us stay
at-homes wonderfully. They can give
81 each, or 80 cents each. or 25 cents
each to the public Fairgrounds and
thus help provide for the summer
vacations of the children who must
play in the city or not at all.
Surely it viii make every chiId's
vacation happier II he shares it with
other children. Surely it will make
the parents mere content when they
see their own little ones growing
brown and tat if they can reflect that
they have given a modicum of health

May Compel Venezuela
To Pay American Claims
All Depends Upon Investigations OF Special
Commissioner Calhoun, Who Sails for
Caracas on Saturday Fully Instructed.

w. w Russell the new United States
minister to Venezuela. who has been In
this country ON his honeymoon and also
as a witness in the Bowen-Loomis case,
will sail for Caracas from New York on
Saturday. The same ship will carry W.
J. Calhoun, of Chicago, the special com
missioner appointed by the President, to
go to Caracas to make thorough in
vestigation of the precise standing of
all the American claims against Vene-
zuela including that of the New York
and Bermudez Asphalt Company and
how they will be anected by the ar
rangement recently entered into by the
Venezuelan government with the foreign
bondholders.
Mr.. Calhoun goes as a direct repre-
sentative of the President and expects to
be absent about two months. He re-
ceived very full and explicit instructions
from Mr. Roosevelt as TO the scope of
his inquiries.
During the last few years there have

ernment and that of Venezuela over the

to Manage the Exposition.

Preliminary plans for the National
Food Show and Industrial Exposition
which is to be held in Convention Hall
December to 16 were arranged at
meeting of the Retail Grocers' PrOtec-
tive Association. which held 2 business
session and smoker last night in the
banquet room Of the Jolly Fat Men s
Club. 93S D street northwest.
The food show has been contemplated
by the local grocers for some time past.
and they have been working quietly on
their scheme, but at last nights meeting
announcement was made that the show
was an assured fact
c.. II. Green and z. J. Rowe. of New
York. have been engaged to manage the
affair. They were present last night and
conferred with the officers Of the asso-
citation in regard to the exposition.
P. B. Otterback, of 1104 Eleventh
street southeast. and Charles J. Magill
have planned to have the exposition in
Convention Hall. It viii be food and
Industrial display. particularly the form
er. al which viii be shown all manner OF

claims of American citizens. Scandals
and hints of scandals have complicated
the situation. The charges and counter
charges made by Messrs Bowen ana
Loomfs. both OF whom were previously
United States ministers at caracas,
have been made respecting the standing
of several Of the claims being urged
against NeneZula.
The President proposes to lay before
Congress the whole subject Of our Tela-
tions with Venezuela for such action as
1t may see f1t TO take. but before doing
so he wants 10 be absolutely certain OF
his facts. 1t Is for this reason that he
has appointed Mr. Calhoun. a lawyer
outside of the Government service. who
is 2 trained observer, and who can ap-
pFoach the whole subject in an entirely
Gnprejudiced way. IF the report TO be
made By Mr.. Calhoun should sustain the
charge that President Castro's govern
ment has unjustly Disseminated against
American citizens, II is quite possible
that the Presidents message to Con
gres will recommend that the United
States take forcible measures to compel
Venezuela to meet the American claims
