Having read the riot act'' to the
manager of local street ear company
through a helpless conductor, and hay-

whether he allowed smoking among the
feminine members Of his family, Mrs.

as the greatest enemy of drink and the

companied by her niece. Miss Moore.
Mrs Nation was much disappointed
that she failed to see President Taft.
She visited the White House for the ex-
press purpose of renewing acquaintances
with the Chief Executive and asking
him a few pertinent questions. The
usual obstruction to the admission OF
undesirable persons, however, in the
form Of several husky policemen met

persuaded her that she didn't wan to

properly Just outside of WASHINGTON

knOwn-and she spent part of the day
yesterday looking over the ground
When she boarded q street car last
night to go to Union Station, Mrs. Ma
ton skilled eye caught sight Of a beer
sign. That was too much, and she i'm
mediat.,sv launched into a denunciation
of the street car company and every
body connected with *. Passengers IN
the car soon realized they were riding
with Americas greatest crusader
against the drink evil, and viewed Mrs.
Nations performance with much amuse-
ment. The conductor took refuge in an
other part Of the car. but that had little
effect upon Mrs. Nations elOquence-
She continued to berate the car COM
pany ali the way.
When Mrs. Nation entered Union Sta
ton one OF the policemen on duty there
recognized her, and offered his congrat-
ulatiOns on her safe return to America.
That was a sufficient opening, and Mrs
Nation soon had a crowd around her,
to whom she preached the gospel of tenn
perance in her very characteristic way.
Members OF her party were much en-
barrassed at the imprOmptu mass meet
ing, and withdrew TO a remote corner Of
the big rOtunda. When train time came
Mrs. Nation went aboard with the firm
conviction that she had put another
crimp In the whisky dealers.
