Parents of amending defective

diseases TO the young, who in turn
blast the health of their pure wives

A little boy, whose parents were
Baptists, attended very success
full protracted meeting that was
being held III the neighborhood.
He had heard some very able SER
mons delivered on the subject of
baptism, especially baptism by
immersion. He had also witnessed
the baptism of great many per-
sons who had been converted at
the meeting, among whom were
the cook and hired man of the
family. One day when he was at
home by himself, it occurred to
him that the Holy rite should be
administered to the cat and kit
tens. Securing tub, he filled 1T
with water for the occasion. The
kittens received the ordinance
without any great protest, but
when it came to putting the cat
under the water, she scratched his
hands and face 30 severely that he
threw her down in disgust, saying !:
"Well, dogon you, be a Meth

new REGULATIONS NEEDED
BUILDING DEPARTMENT PRO-
VISIONS ARE OBSOLETE.
Commissioners Are Satisfied Force II
Inadequate, Too, and Will Ap-
peal to Congress.

As result Of their three-day examina-
ton into the business methods of the
building department Of the District. which
was concluded yesterday. the Commits
sioners are satisfied that the force of that
department is inadequate to properly
cope with the work and that the revised
building regulations which special COM
mission appointed by the Commissioners
has been preparing for more than two
years are sorely needed.
Many of the provisions included In the
present regulations are considered obso-
lete and ineffective. The Commissioners
announced today that these new regula.
tions will be ready for PRONUNCIATION in a
week or SO.
Another point brought out at the Com
missioners examination Is the necessity
Of legislation requiring builders and ar
chitects to register before doing business
with the building department. This re-
euirement will eliminate ignorant and ir-
responsible men who may now be en-
gagged In these occupations and to whom
the building department officials would
refuse building permits II they had the
authority.
As previously stated. the Commission
ers will appeal to Congress to increa Sc
the working force of this department.
The speisl commission appointed po by
regulations May 3. 1909. is made up of
F. l. Averill, civil engineer: Appleton p.
Clark, jr., architect: Leon Dessez, archi-
tect: DR.. George NJ. Kober; James l..

WON'T INCRIM|NATE HIMSELF
J. BARTON MILLER'S DEFENSE
TO CONTEMPT CHARGE.
Says Records Not in His Possession
Takes Advantage Of Consti-
tutional Right.

J. Barton Miller, deposed secretary
treasurer of the First Cooperative Build
ing Association. today filed answer to the
rule to show cause why he should not be
adjudged in contempt Tor failing to deliver
to Receiver Ambrose the books and papers
of the association.
He claims his constitutional right not
to be compelled to incriminate himself
and declares that any answer further
than that the books and records are not
now and have not been since July 1 in
his possession and under his control would
tend to incriminate him.
Through Attorneys sH. E. Davis and
John E. Laskey. Mr.. Miller says his
physician condition has been serious since
July I, and he has been since that date.
and IL now. confined to his bed and under
the care Of his physician. Much Of the
time he has been unable to attend to
business of any sort.
He AYERS that no copy OF the order of
July IL was ever served upon him or, as
he Is advised, upon his counsel, and that
the first knowledge he had of the exist
ence of either the order of July IL or the
rule Of July IA. which he is now answer
ing, was on July Is. when they were
brought to his attention by his counsel.
He is advised that on July 13 a warrant
was sworn out against him In the Police
Court Of the District of Columbia by VIII
liam e. Ambrose, receiver, charging him
with taking away and concealing certain
writings. meaning the books. papers and
records OF the First Cooperative Building
Association Of Georgetown, in violation Of
section $40 of the code Of law for the Dis
trict Of Columbia, and that the warrant
was executed by his arrest July IA.
He AYERS that July ii he gave bond in
