tected bids on the NTH section OF the

Constitution and Bylaws Adopted
and Officers Elected.

The recently organized Inventors Pro-
and K streets northwest. last evening,
adopted a constitution and bylaws and
elected officers. The league is now COM
pletely organized and it's members ex-
pect that requests for aff1liation with 1t

ing remarks Rev. G. F. Williams said.
1--WE wish to work in harmony with all
officials In all departments, and we wish
fight for 1t, ii possible. To say that we
will antagonize the patent Office Is mis-
take. We will not engage them in any
quarrel unless we find 1t necessary. We
will live in peace and content so long as
we are allowed to do SO without suffer-
ing injury or injustice.
But should We be forced to it we will
fight-yes, We will even fight the patent
off1ce-for the maintenance Of our rights.
A strong and powerful society should
follow our meeting tonight. It will be a
society which will do more than the in

could accomplish in the past.

Lunchroom Customer wouldn't
Stand for a "Dogless" Sandwich.
The embezzlement Of sausage from
sandwich early this morning caused a
plate-knife-and-fork battle and a Police
Court fine OF $50 for Ira T. Byram for
disorderly conduct. 1t all happened in
a lunchroom on Pennsylvania avenue sew
eral hours before sedate citizens began
moving about for the day.
Ira Triton, the night manager of the
lunchroom. was the complaining witness.
He told the court that shortly after 3
o'clock Byram and several companions
rolled" into his establishment and or
dered sausage sandwiches. Everything
progressed nicely until Byram happened
to look on the inside of his sandwich
and found the sausage missing.
He accused me of taking it, continued
Triton: but I didn't, and told him So

we used knives and forks, and finally
went out and got a copper.
Other witnesses stated the battle was
terrific while it lasted. although no one
was hurt.
Byram was penitent over the affair in
the Police Court, but still insisted some
one unlawfully and maliciously removed
the sausage from his sandwich.

At THE ROSEDAlE PLAYGROUND
CHILDREN IN ALL-DAY ATH-
LETIC MEET.
Arrived Early and Brought Their
Lunches-Health Talk
to Mothers.

Hundreds Of jolly children romped over
the Rosedale playground this morning.
They took advantage of the swings. slide,
wading pool. tether poles. sand boxes,
croquet and gymnasium apparatus. Many
of the parents Of the children were in at
tendance. There was fun all around.
The occasion was the second picnic of
the children of the Fairgrounds of the
section.
Mrs. Agnes Stewart. Miss Elizabeth
Murray. Charles and Samuel Jennings.
regular teachers of the ground, were in
charge of the festivities. They were as
sisted by Miss Wells. Miss Hillyer. Miss
Piwell and other volunteers. The play
started shortly after 10 o'clock, but long
before that hour many children had ar
rived at the grounds.
Carried Their Lunches.
Some were carrying baskets of good
things seemingly larger than themselves.
AS soon as the baskets were safely put
away they went into the games with evil
dent relish. They knew they had a. full
day of unalloyed pleasure in the swings
and with the other apparatus. and would
be spared the return home for luncheon
The thought, too. that the days of
school are so near at hand and that these
are also the closing days of the play
grounds caused many of the youngsters
to put forth every effort to have the
time of their young lives.
This afternoon at 3 o'clock Mrs. Mary
Gale Davis gave a health talk to moth
ers. which was listened to by large
number of women of the section.
A similar picnic will be held at the
Garfield playground, in the southeast Sec
ton, tomorrow.

BOAT ON THE PILES.
Menace to Navigation at Alexandria
Claims Yacht

The stumps of the old piles, all that
remain Of big coal wharves that formerly
stood at the mouth of the old canal just
north of Alexandria, have claimed another
sailing craft as victim. This time it is
the sailing scow Farmers Friend owned by
Capt. Sisson of Alexandria. and before
the vessel is released from the piles that
are holding her it is feared she will be
badly damaged.
The scow was on her way down the
river from this city Tuesday afternoon
and her pilot steered her too close to the
Virginia side of the river and she was
caught by the piles hidden below the
surface Of the water. When the tide fell
the boat was left standing on them with
no water within several inches of her
bottom. Efforts are being made to float
her and she may be worked into deep
water today.
