MISSION AT ST. MARY'S
 ENTHUSIASM AROUSED
In Response to Popular Request Lectures Continued This
 Week.

The first week of the mission, con | ducted by the Dominican Fathers. | Rev. J. D. O'Brien of Portland. and
 Rev. s. R. Brockbank, came to a sue | cessful close Sunday evening Not withstanding the fact that three sepa-
 rate services were held each day. | the large church was crowded at each exercise The widespread in terest and anxiety to attend these exercises were evident from the large number of people seen on the street each morning. vending their way to
 the church to be present for the early exercise at 5:3O. At SIS each morning the church was again
 thronged by attentive listeners to hear what the missionaries had to say
 At the 7:3O exercises each evening the large seating capacity of the church was taxed to its utmost The sermons by the reverend missionaries were delivered in a clear. plain and fOrceful manner and did not fail to make a deep impression on the hearers. Years of experience in the mission field all through the cOun- try, added to the long years of study in preparation for the work, have ad- mirably fitted them for the great work they have chosen. They con- fined themselves largely to subjects along the line of Christian duty in daily life, duty to God and neighbor and showed that religion is not some thing to be practiced on Sunday only. but that it should be a part of the daily duties.
 Some of the sermons that came with telling force from the lips of the speakers were: Importance of Salvation,' Necessity of Doing Pen ance." Christian Obligations" Evils of Bad Example, and the Widespread Abuse of Speech by Cursing and Blasphemy." All in all the sermons will be productive of much good to those who were fortunate enough to hear them.
 While the missionaries were pre- pairing to close their work here Sun day night, many urgent requests were made both by Catholics and non Catholics that they remain another week In response to this earnest appeal they have decided to remain this week to give lectures in the evening only. These lectures will begin promptly at 8 o'clock and will deal with the essentials of Catholic doctrines They will be a clear, plain exposition of Catholic teaching and practice. void of criticism or Controversy. For the benefit of those interested, the following pro gram of subjects has been announced:
 Monday, April 24-"The Church and Bible"
 Tuesday, April 25.-"The Horrors of the Confessional"
 Wednesday. April 26.-"Transub- stantiation or the Real Presence"
 Thursday, April 27.-"The Old and the New Sacrifice"
 Friday, April .-"Purgatory, or Preparation After Death"
 Sunday. April 3O.-"Why Catholics | Honor the Virgin Mary, the Mother of Christ"
 Besides the above lectures. an inquiry class has been formed in | the parlOrs of the parochial residence, | at 7:30 each evening to accommodate | those who are anxious to receive more detailed information. All are | invited to attend this class and lec- | lures.

DR.. Christmas Builds
Aeroplane Designed
For Commercial Use

Working upon the theory that aero
planes built for commercial purposes
soon will take high rank in aerial
achievements, DR.. w. w. Christmas,
Of Washington, is building a large bi-
plane at College Park. He thinks 1t
will demonstrate the practicability Of
the flying machine in the business
world.
Dr. Christmas hopes to have his ma
chine completed in two weeks and i'm
mediately will secure the services Of
an expert aviator to try it. The work
on the machine is being done by A. T.
Oirn, of College Park, who Is asso-
Ciated with Dr. Christmas.
The Christmas machine will be veTy
large. measuring from end to end forty
feet There is a great difference in this
machine and the others at the park.
The planes come almost together at
the ends Toward the middle Of the
machine square holes Of two feet are
cut through the top surface. This, ac-
cording to DR.. Christmas will have the
effect Of steadying the machine in the
air, claiming that the currents Of wind
striking the machine will sweep through
these holes and thus give a finer bal
ance to the machine. Unlike other ma
chimes, the Christmas biplane sets five
feet off the ground, the inventor claim
ing that an engine can work better
and have better lifting power If the
machine is high
An S0-hOrsepower engine will be placed
In the biplane. The machine will be
able to carry three passengers besides
the driver, making speed Of sixty
miles an hour or better.
Under their plan of construction, DR..

can build a successful machine 100
feet long, If an engine powerful enough

CITY NOW FACING
SHORTAGE IN ICE
OWING TO HEAT
Fair Wind Needed to Hasten
Boats Bringing New
Supply Here.

Ice dealers are praying for fair wind
down the coast. Half a dozen schoon-
ers are bringing big cargoes to WASH
ington, but unless they arrive within
a few days the city will up against
a dangerous shortage. The dealers deny
that there is a possibility of a famine.
Almost all of the dealers admitted
that the continued period Of heated
weather had brought in a good many
more orders, and larger ones, than had
been counted on. But most of them
declared emphatically that they be-
lieved there will be enough ice in
Washington by Saturday to satisfy any
demand.
Bad Time for Delay.
1--WE are running short, but the situa-
ton is not necessarily serious" said an
American Ice Company officer this
morning. THE ice schooners must get
here before the END of the week, and
we can hold out that long. l suppose
the other ice companies are in the same
position, because we haven't been able
10 buy any in town.
This would be a bad time for storm
on the coast. because II those cargoes
do not get here pretty soon the situa-
ton will really be serious"
For more than six weeks Washington
has been consuming an average or
about 1850 tons of ice every twenty-fOur
hours, which is considerably more than
all of the manufacturers together can
turn out in a day. So the dealers who
import have been called upon constant
" during the past few days for heavy
wholesale orders.
Two Weeks on Way.
Manager Willis, of the Home Ice
Company, said this morning that the
long hot spell has worried some of the
ice companies.
I'VE do not import" ne said, I'VE
manufacture all of our ice. But the
demands have been enormous lately.
and there may be trouble yet II the
weather don't moderate. We can take
care Of our customers, and l think
most Of the other dealers will hold
out"
The Maud Palmer, a three-masted
schooner from Bath, Me. left nearly
two weeks ago for Washington with
!, zoo tons of ice on board, but she hrs
not vet been sighted at Cape Henry. 4
tug is lying in Hampton Roads under
steam, ready TO bring her up the river
the moment she enters the bay. Her
cargo Is consigned to the American Ice

Clark asking the passage of a bill
granting the department authority to
enter into a five-year lease of a large
office building for its occupancy,

There will be no further reduction in
the force of the Census Bureau until

20 or 100 employees in that department,

touches on the last census, however, is
far from being complete 1t will be

ASQUITH SEEKS A
STRIKE SOLUTION,
WOMEN WALK OUT
High Government Officials
Meet Labor Leaders.
Country Faces Crisis.

LONDON, Aug. ia conference be
tween Premier Asquith, Chancellor
Lloyd d-George, and Attorney General
Isaacs, and a number of labor leaders
was held today 10 consider means for
terminating the lawlessness at Liver
pool.
The premier indicated that the gov
ernment is prepared to adopt the most
repressive measures unless the situation
is at once improved. Over 500 troops
are in Liverpool Generals MacKinnon
and MacGregor reported at noon that
they had the situation in Liverpool
under control
1t is stated here that approximately
100000 men are out. Reports from Man
chester say the strike of the railroad
freight men is spreading and that the
freighters on the Great Northern rail-
road there and at Liverpool have walked
out.
May Spread.
From all large Centers came reports
of disaffection and it seems certain that
unless a truce can be made with the
leaders here a general railroad strike
will follow.
The executive committee of the Anal
gamated Society of Railway employees
met this afternoon to decide whether a
countrywide strike shall be called.
Upon the result of this meeting depends
the most critical labor situation in
England in many decades.
A new and aggravated condition has
been added to the situation through the
spread of the strike of the women's
unions. There are now 1900 women on
strike, and few firms are granting thelr
demands
Should the government attempt to en-
ploy troops in maintaining order against
women strikers it is believed flame
of rage would sweep through the ranks
of strikers everywhere with Whlch au-
thority would be pOwerless.
