GOVERNOR ASKED TO EXPLAIN
Town Marshal Fires at DiplOmat's Automo.
bile For Speeding.

Town Marshal Collins, at Glen Echo,
Md. is charged with interfering with
and firing upon the automobile of Herr
W. Won Radowitz, second secretary Of
the German Embassy. 1t appears
that the German Secretary was riding
through Glen Echo late Monday even
ing when Town Marshal Collins, who
has been active of late in regard TO au-
tomobile speeding, decided that the
German official was speeding and de-
manded the chauffeur 10 stop and suh-
NIT To an arrest.
Instead of stopping Collins claims
that the automobile was put at great
er speed, and that the occupants laugh
ed at him when he tried To pursue
them on bicycle. Finally Collins,
seeing that he was losing ground. fred
his revolver twice, claiming that ho
shot at the ground, but Herr Won Rad
owitz claims that he tried TO puncture
tire. The automobile was stopped
after the firing and the German Official
presented his card 10 the Marshal, who
allowed him TO proceed on his way.
Governor Warfield. IL is expected,
will be asked to explain. The matter
was brought to the attention OF Assist
ant Secretary of State Bacon yester-
claims that under the law foreign dip
lomatic representatives are exempt
from the law, and that he was not eN-
ceeding the speed limit.
While there were no formal protests,
il is understood that the action of the
town marshal OF Glen Echo will be
called to the attention of Governor
Warfield. This was done in the ease
of Raron Hqnppi muller Tho Austrian
ambassador, who was held mp by the
same official. Governor WaTiield, in
apologizing, declared that the state of
Maryland did not have jurisdiction
over the Conduit road, as that was gov
ernment property. IL this is SO tho
State Department will request the dis.
missal or removal of the town marshal
for his lack of courtesy towards official
representatives of foreign countries,
and his assumption of jurisdiction
over government property.

HOMELESS.

"a parody on "The Last Leaf, " wi
apologies to oliver Wendell Holmes
saw him once before,
As he hustled by the door,
With might and main,
And that old tomato can,
How it ratified as he ran
Up the lanel
/ beg leave here to state,
He could make against his fate,
No demur;
An investigator found
1t was something that was bound
To cur.
They say that when pup,
Ere old age had broke him up,
Asi does,
Not slyer dog was found
By the catcher on his round,
Than he was.
He often tried to get
This sly creature in his net,
But in vain;
And now he's old and sore
And he howls forever more,
In his pain.
Ere his master passed away,
lie had place TO stay,
All his own;
But now he hunts the streets,
In every garbage box he meets,
For a bone.
| know il isn't right
For me TO make SO light
OF his woe:
But the way the rascal ran,
With that old tomato can,
Was such go.
If / should live to be
Without home, the same as he,
Shine or rain,
Let them laugh as | do now,
At the little old box-wow
In tue lane.
