THEIR COURSE is DARING

Yuny Suey and other Cinnamon arrest

various restaurants and laundrtes OF
Washington on charges of violating tie
exclusion law, have appealed to the
District Supreme Court from the de-
cIsion of United States Commissioner
w. A. Taylor, who ordered them de-
ported and it was said today that the
hearing had been set for Wednesday.
There are five of the Cinnamon whose
cases are yet to be heard.
None of these has any papers, all as

ties OF Chinese documents, but the i'm

ut is rather surprising that these
people should come here, said an i'm
migration officer this morning, know
ing that the chances to hide in WASH
ington are the poorest in any big city
in the United States. Their presence,
however, is in keeping with the daring
of the smugglers who are brining
them into the country.
I'VE now believe that these smugglers
are regularly organized on both the
Mexican and Canadian borders, and are
operating together. Naturally 1T would

been much discussed 1t is vigorously
opposed by citizens on several grounds.
one of which IS disapproval of the dis
jointed new street proposed alongside
the Union Station proper in connection
with the compa VS. proposed sheds in
squares -19 AID ~
The second bill Is even more strongly
opposed, since it puts upon the District
the entire cost net only of establishing
but of maintaining the storage yard
on Virginia avenue and makes the Dis
trict liable for all damages which may
result therefrom, or from the closing of
said New Jersey avenue
In the view of the citizens affected, the
bill saddles upon them improvement
which they say constitute an obstruction
to street traffic and a continuous incon-
venience, and in addition makes them
contribute to the payment of damages
resulting therefrom.
Puts Cost on District.
The bill transfers rights granted the
company in the bill to eliminate grade
crossings and provides that the rail-
road company thereupon shall be re-
heved and discharged from the obliga-
ton imposed upon its predecessof-the
Baltimore and Potomac Railroad Com
pany-by said act of Congress TO carry
New Jersey avenue over its tracks at
said point on an iron or steel bridge.
and shall be relieved from all liability
for damages, direct or consequential,
which may result from the closing of
New Jersey avenue and the abandon
ment of said bridge, and upon the due
execution. delivery. and recording of
said agreement, New Jersey avenue be-

vacated and abandoned for public use:
Provided, however. that the side track
on Canal street now connecting the
main tracks of said railroad company
with the United States Navy Yard shall
not be cut off or in anywiSe interfered
with, and that said railroad company
shall at all times have the right to cross
said storage yard in order to connect
with and operate said siding"
This gives the railroad company all
the privileges it wants while relieving it
of the expense of the work of improve
ment.

MRS. GAIN
DEAD At SALEM

Margaret A. Hursey was born
Sept. IS, 1914 and died at Salem
Sept. 2. 1905 She was united in
marriaAa-to Samuel Gain June goth
1862. To this union were born five
children, four sons and one daugh-
ter, viz: Wilbur, Harvey, Homer,
Ersa and Arthur The three older
children are married, the two young
er are still single and remain at
home. All reside in Salem. In
her younger days while living with
her aunt in Marietta, Ohio, she
united with the NJ. F.. church of
that place from which she never re-
moved her membership! Mrs
Gain lived a quiet peaceful life, and
until stricken by disease, was fifth
fll in her duties administering to
the comforts of her husband and
children. For two years she has
been afflicted with a complication OF
diseases and at different times death
seemed inevitable, but by the tender
care of anxious loved ones she would
again rally and thus, her life was
prolonged. In July she and her
husband spent a few weeks at At
lantic City with .the hopes of inn
proving her condition but her health
sim declined. The funeral SER
vices were held Monday. Sept. 4, at
the NJ. F.. church conducted by the
pastor Rev. L. B. Bowers, and the
large concourse. of people in atend-
ance was evidence of her many
friends and the high esteem in
which she was held. Her remains
were laid neatly and quietly away in
a metal vault in the I. o. O.. F
cemetery on the hill; there to sleep
in peace until He who is able to
break that iron seal without hands
shall say unto her, arise.

GRAND CONCERT
At BR0AlDUS

The musical recital given by menu
beers of the Broaddus Institute fac
uIty at the Baptist church on Fri
day evening was q decided success
and the large audience present gave
enthusiastic evidences of their APP
probation. Miss Green, the direc-
tor of the musical department, had
been heralded in advance as a
pianist of rare skill and her Nrst
graceful, delicate touch of the ivory
KEYS demonstrated the fact that no
one would be disappointed in the
outcome The program as formerly
published in these columns was rem
dered and from first to last Miss
Green proved herself a master of the
situation, rendering her selections
with finish that reflected credit
upon the great artists under whom
she has studied.
Miss Pauline A. Stewart, the as
sistant in this department, and like
wise instructor in voice culture, cap
tivated the audience ut once by her
charm of manner and superb pres
.ence. Her selections were mostly
from foreign composers rendered in
deep mellow contralto tones, differ
ing from the singing generally heard
IN public, but IN quality and sweet
ness. very pleasing. Miss Stewart's
singing likewise gave evidence of
thoron9h and careful training. One
of her closing numbers, s9'n Wear-
i'm Ava was enthusiastically re
ceived,
Miss Iva Maude Dunn, the teach
err of elocution and physical ctli-
lure, who was a member of the fac

Mahogany hall, notorious bag

Sheriff Flanagan. -Four female in
mates, all colored, were seized and

the car door as the train was running
along.
The same gang had also stolen 4
beef hides, calf hide and five sheet
pelts from Cork's place beyond the
fair grounds on the Weston road,
the estimated value of which was
$e5.
In addition Jim Kendall had sew
eral hams Of meat in his possession
at the time Of his arrest, but he
claimed at the time that he hud
gotten them from the Hornor-Gay-
lord Company.
Also in their confession they
stated that they met every night at
the s.Y'' and waited for the Short
Line and other trains to come in
for the purpose of seeing who might
be on the train that it would pay
them to hold up. They admitted
that they were organized and had
been operating some time.
Many additional robberies, hold
ups and burglaries will doubtless be
revealed as having been committed
by them before the investigation in
court proceeds very far.
