TITLE BILL TO BE RUSHED.
Authority for Acquisition Of Penal
Sites

In answer to appeal for speedy action.
the District Commissioners were inform
ed today that legislation to allow the
title to the workhouse and reformatory
sites to be taken in the name of the
United States will be incorporated in the
deficiency appropriation bill which will
be presented to the House Thursday.
Commissioner Mcfarland represented
to the leaders of the House the need of
speedy action in view of the fact that
the acquisition of the sites has been
halted until the desired authority is
given by Congress so as to meet the re-
quirements of the Maryland and Vir-
ginia state codes providing for the ces-
sion of sovereignty to the United States
over lands in Maryland and Virginia.
Senator Carter endeavOred to call up
for consideration in the Senate today the
Commissioners bill relating to the ac-
quisition of sites for the District work
house and reformatory. He was halted
by objections from Senator. Lodge and
Senator Culberson, who contended that
the unanimous consent agreement under
which the Senate is operating at present
precludes the consideration of miscel-
laneous legislation.
Senator Carter was compelled to SUBJ
NIT. The bill went to the calendar. It
will come up later. however. The def
cheney appropriation bill is excepted by
the terms of the agreement from objec-
tion to consideration.
The communications from the Commis-
sioners and the Attorney General on the
subject, which have been printed in The
Star, were submitted by Senator Carter.

Luna Park.

The warm weather, supplemented with
free gate admission and free open-air
vaudeville. drew large crowds to Luna
Park yesterday and last night. The lib
eral course of the management is being
appreciated, and the park is now pop
ular resort during the summer evenings
that drive folks from the city for cool
breezes blended with amusement. The
attractions in the vaudeville pavilion are
much above the average, and the num-
bers presented last night were frequently
and vigorously applauded.
The program embraced Harrison and
Force, eccentric Irish comedians. Chrissie

New National.

The Aborn Opera Company with THE
| Belle of New York" swooped down upon
the patrons of the New National Theater
last night and gave them the surprise of
the season. Never did it's tuneful songs
and ditties seem more tuneful. and never
were they sung with more enthusiasm by
the singers and received with more ap-
probation by the audience. Indeed. the
weather did not seem to count at all on
either side. for over and over again were
the singers compelled to sing their songs,
and still the audience encored. The un-
doubted feature of the evening was the
rousing reception given Edith Bradford.
MISS Bradford has long been a favorite
In Washington. and the reception given
her last night did not indicate that the
audience admired those who preceded her
less, but her more. Her songs were en-
cored again and again, and as Cora An
gel1que she was in the play as she was in
fact. the queen of the comic opera
Carrie Reynolds. too. came in for her
| share as Fiji Fricot. Miss Reynolds is
not only charming singer and graceful
dancer. but she is pretty good actress
as Weli. Agnes Finlay, as the demure lit
tie Salvation Army lassie. was also very
much in evidence and a very strong fac
tor in making The Belle of New York"
as presented last night. an unqualified
success. Edna May could not have won
more applause and gathered up larger
| imaginary procession of admirers with
her Follow On song
Then came Robinson Newbold as Icha-
bod Bronson, president of the Young
Men Rescue League and Anti-Cigarette
society of Cohoes. Last week Mr.. New
bold gave his admirers a touch of Ray
mond Hitchcock: this week he is inimit-
ably himself and as the wearer of a
fatigue uniform that would make anyone
| tired in ten minutes he carried on his
| good work to the accompaniment of un-
ceaslng laughter. Herman Hirshberg also
| found the funny bones of his audience

applauded Come to the Land Of

NARROW ESCAPE FROM FLAMES
Mrs. Mary Carnell Awakens to Find
House on Fire.

Mrs Mary Carnell of 500 Massachusetts,
avenue had a narrow escape from death
by burning last night about 9:45 O'Clock
when fire damaged her house and furni-
ture to the extent of about $500. 1t is
thought that the blaze, which started on
the first floor, was caused by lamp that
had been left there by Mrs. CarneIl when
she retired.
The blaze burned through the ceiling of
the lower room and the floor of the upper
room. Mrs. CARMEL was awakened and
barely had time to get her clothes to-
gether and leave the house in time to
save her life.

sponded to local alarm, but before
they reached the house an alarm was
sounded from box 26l, Summoning sew
