FOR 3EAUTIFYING CITY
PURPOSE OF ASSOCIATION SOON
TO BE FORMED.

A movement has been inaugurated which
has It's foundation in civic pride and the
preservation and enhancement of the repu-
tation of Washington as city of beautiful
homes. number Of prominent citizens
have been approached and have signtfied
their deep interest and desire to actively CO.
operate in the movement.
The proposition Is to form association,
the object of which is to pledge the men,
bers to keep the parking in front of their
residences in good order, to render 1t at
tractive in every way possible and to in
fiuence others in the neighborhood Of the
several members to laudable efforts on che
same line. There are to be neither dues
nor fines nor meetings except that when a
sufficient number of names have been en-
rolled, it Is proposed to hold a meeting,
organize and each succeeding spring. say
in May, meet for the purpose of renewing
interest, and stimulating the general move
ment to beautify the city.
The matter has been called to the atten-
ton of the District government, and Com
missioner West has expressed his cordial
interest in this worthy cause, and stated
that the promoters might be assured of
the hearty sympathy and cooperation of
the District Commissioners. Mr.. John ray
lor Arms, 1911 G street northwest, is in
charge of the arrangements.
East Washington Interested.
A number of citizens of East Washington,
where there are many pretty front-yard
gardens. are already contemplating the for
nation of home Identification societies, for
the purpose of encouraging the planting OF
flowers and shrubbery about their premises
1t has also been suggested that the asso-
citation be in the nature of a vigilance COM
mittee. to take steps to prevent as Iar DIS
possible depredations by vandals, who have
already begun their work of injuring ex-
posed blooms and growths.
Much attention Is being attracted by the
pretty lawn and remarkable snowball ouSh'
now in full bloom, in the front yard of the
home of Mrs. Celynda Werner tord, at ooo
Massac husettS avenue northeast.
Some of the public school teachers are en-
couraging their pupils to beautify their
premises with flowers by giving them Varle-
gated flower seed, with instructions how to
plant and tend them. According to one or
the teachers who is interested in the mat
ter the time is now ripe for the formation
of Identification societies among both old
and young throughout the District.

the only requirement of membership is that

the movement will receive general support.

SPIRITED FIGHT IN FIRST WEST

WHEELING, w. Va, May 3 1906
william T. Hubbard's announced candi-
dacy Tor Congress against Representative
Il. b. Dovener has converged political at
tentlon IN this state the first congress
slonal district. Mr. Hubbard's prominence
anc the fact that Representative Dovener
TOT ten years has won his nomina tions with
little or no trouble has inspired a certain
interest In the outcome, while the addi-
tional fact that they are both from Ohio
county, of which Wheeling is the county
seat has limited the fighting ground to
this county, with the rest of the district
for the time being mere onlookers.
In all of West Virginia there is conced-
edly no republican out of Office who occu-

Spirited Contest Anticipated.
Representative Dovener's uniform good
nature, his ready willingness to do any
constituent personal favor his unfailiug
practice of keeping out of every other per-
sons political fight, his freedom from po-
litical factions and his policy of always
recognizing the county organizations in
the matter Of appointments has made him
a power.

tention is merited by reason of his claims.

that he limps from rebel bullet may be

tied with the fear that Hubbard's success
will mean Hubbards candidacy few
years hence for SCOTS seat in the upper

the most part be found helping Dovener

framing for various alignments and re-

Hubbard.

Eootpad Once More.

The good record of the previous night
was broken last night by the appearance
upon the street of a pocket book snatcher.
He appeared near the corner of 18th and
streets northwest shortly before 10
o'clock, and relieved Miss Mary Giese of
her hand bag containing about SO in cash
and a building association book. Miss
Giese was on her way to her home, at 1913
18th street, and was passing the corner
mentioned, when a young colored man sud
denly appeared and grabbed her satchel,
The young woman held to her property with
all the strength she could exert, but she
succeeded in retaining only the handle
Miss Giese was so excited when a police
man appeared and questioned her that she
could not tell just exactly what happened.
She knew the young colored man robbed
her and that she tried to scream for
sstance. She told the police that the rob-
Der wore dark clothes and a cap.
Her complaint was telephoned to police
headquarters and the police in all the pre-
cincts were told to be on the lookout for
the criminal.
