Each InStdllment a COMPLETE STORY

HOW Muffles won and took his fight
And left the merchants store that night
Was never known except that he
Next morning was on hand to see
Three little girls on their way to school
Call on the Prince to ask rule
To do problem in arithmetic
About some hens and little chick.
Their names were Tee and Too and Taw,
The cutest girls you ever saw
And as full of pranks as girls can be
Who love the woods and fields and sea.
Their problem in arithmetic
Was about like this repeated quick:

And the chicken yellow and tweaty-two

X. THREE LITTLE MAIDS
FROM SCHOOL.

THE Princes latest camp address
Was published wide in the daily press;
And the stories told by girls and boys,
And by the merchant who sold the toys,
And by the friends of granny dear
Who called on her the news to hear,
And the photographs made every day
And printed in papers far away;
And the Princes sayings when he left the ship
AS they travelled wide from lip to lip,
And the doings of Dinkey and the fun he made
And the little Jap and the jokes he played;
And the news of Dutchy, how he got lost.
The Washington herald. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1906-1939, 1910-03-20

Were on their nests or away for lunch;
How many white hens in the bunch?"
The Prince called Dutchy to come and see
If he could answer for the three.
Now repeat your problem" said Domino,
"Just wind it up and let it 60"
The little girls said it again
And this time had an extra hen
And some hens white and green and red
And the little chick had gone to bed.
They mixed up Dutchy till he got wise
And saw the twinkling in their eyes.
Then he answered that he'd multiply

And the way the Prince that farmer bossed
And the way that Mufles read each mind
And solved the mysteries of every kind
These happenings and hundred more
Made such great talk the country Ger
And made the Prince so popular
That letters came from near and far
And kilograms all through each day
Were forwarded without delay.
The camp got buster every hour
As the people heard of Muflles power.
The Prince read closely each request
And sent reply the very best

But the Jap and Dutchy made him run
By firing shot from the Princes gun.
A BOY came to the camp that night
To show Prince Domino kite
Which he had made with sticks and strings
And paper boards for tail and wings
And with propeller to make it go,
To drive it forward fast or slow.
The lad explained that some day soon
He'd sail an airship to the moon.
There is something wrong with the work
said he,
''The motors stuck and the electricity
Doesn't seem to work, and have come
To see if you will help me some;
For have worked both day and night
For about year to make this kite;
I've read in papers how fellows fly
From town to town and by and by
I'll build one big enough, you'll see,
To carry our whole family"
&
THE Prince was pleased and asked his name
And where he lived and why he came;
And then said he, I'm afraid that we
Can't help you much with machinery;
We solve hard problems of every kind,
And Mufies here can read your mind,
Bat we can't help you fly kite
CIR get that motor working right"
The boy was tired; he had walked all day;
His home was twenty miles away;
And now to learn from Prince Domino
That he couldn't make the motor go
Made the little fellow look so sad
That the Prince was sorry for the lad
''You stay with us tonight" he said.
we'll get you supper and provide bed, :

found to be an impracticaible thing. and
had to be abandoned on account of the
loss OF time from school.
Belongs to the People.
1.-THE opening of the museum at night
would accomplish the double purpose of
giving thousands Of parents, whose en-
pigments during the day bar them from
the enjoyment of these opportunities. a
chance to visit the museum and take their
children with them, and also enable the
teachers to acquaint themselves more
fully with these collect ons. Not even
teache know the full historic and scien-
tific value of the National Museum. These
exhibits cannot be duplicated. They can
not be appraised in money. They belong
to the people as the public schools belong
to them and should be available at all
times. They should not be for the priv
ileged classes or for people of leisure only.
Since the Libraries have been opened al
night students have resorted to them in
large numbers. and so, l am sure. would
accumulated by the government and are
the work of trained scientists, be resorted
to-
DR.. Needham's Views.
No less emphatic in his approval of
the extension Of the hours of the museum
is Dr. Charles W. Needham. president OF
George Washington University.
ITO have the National Museum and
Smithsonian Institution exhibits open in
the evenings and on Sunday would add
materially to the educa tional advantages
of Washington DR.. Needham said yes
terday Not only would the general
public profit, but students and even col
lege and .chool teachers as well.
Speaking for George Washington Uni
versity / can say that many of our stu
dents would be greatly benefited. A
great many of them work during the day
and attend lectures in the late afternoon
and early evening. In their work they
have cause for parallel study that they
could pursue with delight in the scientific
collections of the National Museum II
they had the opportunity.
.tOur professors would be equally at
fected, because many of them are so
busy during the day that they do not
have time to go to the museum for such
Independent research work as they would
like to carry on.
Learn With Their Eyes.
CAS- for the question Of keeping the ex-
hibits open to the public on Sunday, 1
heartily favor it. While the argument
might be made that Sunday visitors
would go for pleasure or curiosity rather
than from a desire to learn, it is an in
disputable fact that many persons learn
most of what they know by the use of
their eyes.
Suppose Sunday visitor did not go
to see the exhibits for purposes of study.
While he is there ne will gather, in spite
of himself, one might say, valuable in
formation. 1t is for this reason that
was so glad to see the doors of the Cor
coran Gallery of Art thrown open on
Sundays. One cannot so to such places
and come away without being improved.
1.-The collections of the National Mu-
scum and Smithsonian are exceedingly
valuable and the more the public of
Washington sees of them the better off
the public will be-

T, v. CALLAHAN DEAD
Found. Unconscious in Street
by Policeman.
LONG IN NAVY Department
Hurried to Hospital, But Lives Only
Short Time-Coroner Will
Investigate.

Edward w. Callahan, chief clerk of the
bureau of navigation. Navy Department,
died last night at the Emergency Hos
pital three-quarters of an hour after
being removed to that institution.
Mr.. Callahan was found unconscious
about 7:35 O'Clock pm. at Connecticut
avenue and II street northwest. He was
removed to the hospital in the ambu-
lance. Two physicians worked hard to
save his life, but he aid not regain con-
seriousness.
Mr.. Callahan when found was lying
lengthwise in the gutter on the north side
of II street at the northwest corner Of
Connecticut avenue by Policeman L. A.
Carlin of the third precinct. The latter
was walking along H street when he
noticed a man lying in the gutter. Be-
lieving him to be asleep or intoxicated,
the policeman raised and sat him against
an iron face. Noticing that the mans
face was darkened, the policeman sum-
moned an ambulance.
Coroner Will Investigate.
When the patient reached the hospital,
the physicians say, Mr.. Callahan's face
was of a dark hue, and it was realized
to live. Although the physicians made a
careful examination they had not at a
late hour determined the cause of death.
Coroner hewitt was notified and will
make an investigation today.
Mr.. Callahan, who was forty-one years
of age, was on his way from the Cen
fury Club, on Vermont avenue near H
street, to his residence, 1918 II street.
He had dined at the club and chatted
with a number of friends shortly before
he left the building. He walked across
Vermont avenue and along the north
side of III street. Inc spot where he
was found is quite dark, and there was
considerable snow near the street side
of the pavement. II is not believed he
slipped on the snow and received the in
juries which caused his death, as the
physicians say no bruises could be found
about the body which would cause DEATH
nor was there any indication of foul
play. In his pockets were found his gold
watch and about SO.
