CUT OFF SAILORS FROM
CIGARETTES? OH, FURY!
Navy Department believes Them In
furious, But is Uncertain
as to Action.
/, CO., LTD.

WASHINGTON, May 1S.-What to
do with the cigarette threatens to
become as great a problem for the
navy department to solve as the ques-
ton how to get more big battleships.
Such little matters as the height
of the armor belt, the character of
the ammunition hoists and the height
of the free board are picayunish
alongside of the cigarette. For months
there has been much agitation of this
question in naval circles.
The surgeon general in his last re-
port took the view that the enlisted
men are injured by the use of cigar
cites and recommended that measures
be taken to stop the use of them.
Most of the medical officers agree
with him. The experienced line Off
GERS are aware what a source of COM
fort to the men the cigarette is and
they are further aware that if an or
der were given to abolish the use Of
cigarettes there would be a roar of
disapproval from the bluejackets that
would sound like a presidential sal
ute with ~ inch guns.
1t would be difficult to enforce a
rule against cigarettes, and the pro-
hibition would breed discomfort that
would, as some think, almost border
on mutiny. ,AI44Rl2

Navy to find out full data concerning
the fleet. The information wanted is;
When will the fleet arrive? Which
ships will be in the fleet? How long
will they remain?

tain enough, so the committee are
anxious to hear from the official head
of the Navy.
L. Tenney Peck was not ready with
his report on finance but will present
a plan at tomorrow's meeting. The
main question that will be taken Ut
tomorrow afternoon will be on the

cal association. made a short address of
welcome to the members and the guests
last night. during which he pointed out
the strides made by the local club and
predicted success in the future. He con-
cluded by announcing the results of the
membership campaign.
This campaign was conducted on a
novel plan. When the local club became
affiliated with the American Automobile
Association nearly year ago it did not
have the required number of members,
100 but it was taken in on the promise
that the deficiency would be made up be-
fore the year was out. In order to MAKE
good this promise Mr. Caverly divided the
club into two section. placing F.. s.
Bliven as the captain of one side and Ar
thur Newmeyer at the head of the other.
The rivalry of the teams during the cam
paign was keen. according to Mr.. Caver-
ly, and resulted in Capt. Blivens team
carrying off the honors with forty new
members. Capt. Newmeyers team had
thirtyfour to it's credit. The losing team
paid for the cost of the refreshments and
other things i'll connection with the cele-
bration last night
The entertainment program consisted
of music by the Madrigal Quartet. COM
posed of J. F. Matthew. Leroy A. Glider,
J. S. Hicks and T. T. Apple, and the
flashing of a number of stereopticon
views.

18th street. gave up S. to a stranger We'd
nesday Mr.. Chambers was entering a
store on eth street when the stranger
rushed up to him and asked him for the
loan of 81.
I'm awfully glad to see you said the
stranger, whose condition made it evil
dent that he had been running. Il wish
you would lend me 81. My carriage broke
down and it will cost me SIT to have it
repaired, I happen to have only SIS with
me, and it will be an accommoda ton if
you will loan me the s. until this after
noon''
But" said Mr.. Chambers, Il never met
you before
But you ought to know me- said the
stranger. L worked at ST. Pauls Church
and I've seen you there many times
live only few doors from your house.
Mr.. Chambers drew a S. bill from his
pocket and said that was the smallest bill
he had.
That's all right said the swindler.
TN ttke it and return a So bill as soon
as I r, urn home this afternoon"
MIR. Chambers learned yesterday that he
was the victim Of swindler and called
upon the police to tell them of his eX-
perience. He said he had no thought of
getting his money back. but he was
anxious to have the swindler caught and
prosecuted.
Henry Orth, who lives at 1011 l. street
northwest. gave up $3 presumably to the
man who got Mr.. Chambers So He was
near eth and G streets northwest when a
man stopped him. introduced himself as
Mr.. King. a neighbor. and asked for the
loan of the money. His story was that he
was employed as driver of an undertakers
team. and that he had had an accident.
1t had become necessary for him to have
some repairs made and he was 81 short
of the amount necessary to pay for hav-
ing the work DONE He got the money and

CHEMICAL SOCIETY MEETS.
Members Hear Address on Poison
ivy and Sumac.

Description of some of the constituents
of poison ivy and poison sumac, IN
lecture by l.. f. Warren of the bureau OF
chemistry was the feature of a meeting
last evening of the Chemical Society OF
Washington in the Cosmos Club. He re-
futed the idea that some persons are inn
mune from sumac poisoning. saying that
while certain individuals are more sus-
ceptible than others. no one has yet been
found who is not affected in some degree.
Mr. Warren asserted that the poisonous
properties of the sumac are not volatile.
so that poisoning cannot be contracted in
any other way than by actual contact.
He told of hundreds of antidotes for the
poisoning but said none of them is sure.
A. Given of. the bureau of chemistry
exhibited and explained the workings OF
new automatic p.pette for laboratory
use
Plans for a trip to Baltimore were dis
cussed. and 1t was arranged that the

Good Cheer Dispensed at Its Club
House Last Night.

The members of the Washington Auto
mobile Club and their friends met at. their
club house in Brightwood last night and
celebrated the closing of u spirited cam
paign for new members. This campaign
was started early in February and re-
suited in the enrolment of seventy-four
members. This was far beyond the eX-
pectations of the members of the club and
it is needless to say that the celebration
was marked by merrymaking and good
feeling.

DR.. WHITE RESIGNS.
Plans to Leave Emergency Hospital
April Is.

DR.. Charles S. White, superintendent
of the Emergency Hospital has rendered
his resignation and the same has been
accepted by the board of directors to
take effect April II. He will be succeed
ed by Dr. f. P. Magruder of this city.
The latter is nominated and the appoint
ment will be formally confirmed at
meeting of the board this afternoon
In submitting his resignation Dr. White
explained that it is his desire to devote
all of his attention to the practice of his
profession with freedom from the direct
administration of hospital affairs. 1t is
understood. however. that he will accept
a responsible position on the visiting
staff of the Emergency Hospital, and that
the institution will thus have the con-
tinuing benefit of his long experience in
its work.
DR.. White is a native of this city. He
graduated with the class of '9S from
George Washington University Medical
School. Between 1893 and 1900 he was
engaged in hospital work in Washington
and in New York. and he also took special
courses in Harvard and in the more i'm
portant universities in Europe. Return
ing to this city in 1903 he became a resi-
dent physician at the Emergency Hospi-
tai and two years later was appointed
superintendent of the institution.
Under Dr. Wnlte 8 ADMINISTRATOR IL IL
stated the Emergency Hospital entered
into it's period of greatest prosperity. and
he built up the system so that the gen.
eral public receives more benefits and bet
ter service than ever before. He raised
the standard of the institution, too. so
that it now ranks with the best hospitals
in the country. The Emergency Hospital
lives up to every requirement that it's
name implies, handling hundreds of acct
dent victims from all sections of the city
and the surrounding country each year.
Dr. White pursued special studies in
Europe last summer and soon after his
return he found that his growing prac-
tice would compel him to relinauish his
hospital duties. but he was induced to
withhold his resignation until this spring
DIR. Magruder has been practicing in
this city since 1903. He was born In
Upper Marlboro. Md. in 1875. He received
his degree of bachelor of arts from Johns
Hopkins University in 1895 and master
of arts degree from George Washington
University in 1900
He received the degree of NJ. D. from
the same institution in 1902 and was adj
mitted to practice the following year.
