Episode at Girls school Much Mag
nifed, Says DR.. Mencfee-

The report Of a series Of thefts an the
Washington School for Girls. which came
through police circles. is pronounced by
Dr Menefee, the principal. TO have been
greatly exaggerated.
II is true that an employe was detected
carrying off a basketful OF linen with a
few other articles Of value. including n
small chain, and that she confessed and
was not prosecuted, because somewhat
feeble-minded; and also true that de-
tective Vas quietly called~in TO investi-
gate the case and find whether the
woman had pUrloined anything else. But
II is not a fact. DR.. Menefee says. thar
there was ever any uproar in the school
or that detectives were bafied for two
months by a series Of mysterious thefts.
or that there had been a systematic
watching of all the employees, or that
any of the pupils began to fear they
were under suspicion. Indeed. accord
ing to the principal. the whole episode.
as given publicity, was much magnihed
1t amounted to nothing more than the
detecting of q weak-minded employee in
petty thefts, and the case really never
called for detective skill

Mr.. LUCKETT'S LEASE ENDS
Fact Announced by James Z. Hack
EFT in Curtain Speech.
Columbia Audience Further In.
formed of Managers Plans for
New Playhouse.

Last night marked the closing OF the
lesseeship OF Mr. Joseph Luckett OF the
Columbia Theater. and it also marked
the closing OF the highly successful stock
| engagement Of four weeks OF James X.
Hackett and his company.
The theater was packed TO its capacity
with an enthusiastic audience. and one
that insisted on curtain calls after each
act
At the end of the third act Mr. Hack
EFT appeared before the curtain, and in
a graceful and grateful speech he thanked
the theatergoers of Washington for their
fine patronage and encouragement He
also referred to the fact that the night
marked the close of Mr.. Euckett's ten
ancy, and he added: But I am author
ized by Mr.. Luckett to announce 10 you
that this very day plans have been con-
summated contracts signed. and ar
rangements made by which a new thea
ter will be added to the playnouses Of
Washington, and Of the new theater Mr.
Joseph Luekett will be the, manager. Mr.
Luckett has further hOnored me by ask
ing me to open the new theater in April
Of next year, and have promised 70 do
so. The name of the new playhouse has
not yet been decided on. but it is not
unlikely that II will be called the Hack
EFT Theater"
The location of the proposed new thea
ter is not known. Mr. Joseph Luckett
confirmed what Mr.. Hackett had said,
and averred that there was little doubt
that the new playhouse would be
ready for occupancy by next April. Mr.
Hackett left on the midnight train for
New York. whence, within a day or two,
ne will sail for Europe. He goes 70

ILLNESS AMONG INFANTS.
Society for Prevention of sickness
Issues Annual Advice.

The Society for the Prevention Of Sick
ness, which for the past seven years has
constantly agitated the milk question,
and in it's Sunday Bulletins warned
against the dangers Of raw milk. COM
mences with this issue the publication OF
its annual advice for the treatment Of
summer sickness amoug infants The
society recommends that infants suffer
ing from diarrhea be given no fresh milk,
introducing a small quantity of calomel
which kills the germs, and feeding the
sufferers on rice water, sweetened with
condensed milk. until the attack has
passed. The society warns against a
regular diet on condensed milk, because
experience has shown that this other
wise valuable food. II given constantly
and 10 the exclusion Of other nutriment,
may cause scurvy in a child
The treatment published by the society
was in its general lines recommended
some years ago b. a noted specialist, and
rarely fails TO effect a cure within q
day or two from the time the child Is
put under it's simple procedure.
The board of health In New York City
adopted a somewhat similar recommended
ton. in which stopping the feeding Of
fresh milk Is an important measure.

North Carolina Mountain Towns
Favored by WnnhinEtOninnH.

That North Carolina is growing in pOpu-
larity among Washingtonians is evidenced
by the numerous inquiries of the resort
bureaus and other agencies from persons
who are making plans for their summer
vacations.
At one time people seemed to think that
It was necessary TO seek the mountain or
seashore resorts Of the East or North in
order 10 find a cool place. but statistics
go to show that in Western North Caro-
lima, In that section which is known as
the Land Of the Sky and the Sapphire
Country" that the climate is equally as
cool as the mountains OF the North. The
average elevation of this section Of West
ern North Carolina is between two and
three thousand feet above the sea level
and there are numerous mountain peaks
which exceed 5000 feet.
The mountain scenery Of Western North
Carolina compares with any section In the
country: in fact. IL in many respects
rivals that of Switzerland. The resorts in
this section include Asheville, Lake Toxa-
way Hot Springs, Waynesville, and Hen
dersonville. AT Lake Toxaway is the
beautiful lake with a shore line OF fifteen
miles. 5000 feet above sea level. Near by
are many picturesque waterfalls. The
