LESSON IN MAINE ELECTION
DR.. Crafts Advises Prohibitionists to
Renew Their Efforts.

That the prohibitionists of the country
should take to heart the lesson of the
recent election in Maine and should re-
new their efforts to stamp out liquor
traffic, was emphatically advised today
by Rev. DR.. Wilbur F. Crafts, superin-
tendent of the international reform
bureau. who has just returned to Wash
ington after taking an active part in the
campaign in Maine. DR.. Crafts was ac-
companied by his wife. He made a
tour through Maine. speaking from an
automobile in favor of prohibition, cover
ing about 700 miles
Maine probably has been saved from
defeat of constitutional prohibition, but
by a narrow margin" DR.. Crafts said.
The official count is 20 for repeal of the
law. it is true, but the anti-prohibition
leaders admit that unquestioned errors
reported by town clerks, which, the law
allows to he corrected within twenty
days after the official count. will give Il
ma jority of not less than $50 TO prohibit
ton.

ANACOSTIA.

The question of recommending TO the
Commissioners that sufficient ground De
purchased in Anacost.a or its immediate
vicinity for the purpose of establishing
a public park will receive the action Of
the citizens association at lis meetings
this coming winter For long time the
association advocated the purchase OF the
Christie estate, comprising ABOUT nIty
acres but this tract has been sold. some
are of the opinion that it would be well
to let the matter hold over until such
time as the flats are reclaimed, when an
adequate park will be provided. while 9TH
ers favor the acquisition of other ground
for this purpose. Logan Park, in Ana
costa is to be put in proper condition,
and while this park is claimed to be too
small it is believed it will answer the
purpose until the flats are reclaimed.
AS the cool weather sets in the police
are again confronted with the question of
whether or not to allow roller skating on
the sidewalks in AnacoStia. Capt. Ander-
son has issued orders to have it stopped
on certain streets, and especially where
there is Illness and many protests nave
been registered by parents, who feel that
their children should be permitted this
exercise. Whether the captain will ad
here to his original order or permit the
skating is a question.
Policeman Karl Scherer of the eleventh
precinct yesterday arrested four persons
in Hillsdale for keeping dogs without
muzzles or without tags. The strict en-
forcement of this order during the past
few months has put owners of dogs on
the alert. and the law has been gener-
ally observed.
The special committee on flag raising of
the Anacostia Citizens Assoc iation met
last evening at the residence of the chair
man on Nichols avenue and completed
its program for the events on that day.
Ihe only additions to the program not
heretofore announced are that troops will
be hand and that the Isabel Worreil
Ball Flag Association will render drill
on that afternoon in costume. 1t was also
decided to send out $50 invitations for the
affair.
The Isabel Worrel Ball Flag Associa-
ton of Washington is to be present at
the public flag raising to take place in
Anacostia the afternoon of september
30 and will give drill in costume, Mrs.
Logan, widow of Gen. John A. Logan,
after whom the park is named. is to be
extended an invitation to be present.
Miss Margaret A. Lacey of the Govern
L. Gibbons, also an employee of that in
stitution were married Wednesday even
ing in the parsonage of st. Teresa's
Church. Rev. Martin P. Egan. assistant
priest, officiated. Miss Lena Welch and
John NJ Gibbons brother of the groom,
bons left Immediately after the cere-
mony for a trip to Old Point Comfort
and Norfolk. and upon their return will
make their home in Anacostia.

in operation yesterday at the corner of

A special conference between the of
ficials of the Southern Railway Company
and II. G. Alexander, representing the
telegraphers of that system who are ne
gotiating for higher wages and changes
in the labor rules, was held today behind
Closed doors.
Most of the telcgra piers remained at
their headquarters at the National Hotel.
and it could not be learned what was the
nature of the special conference. 1t is
regarded probable that the leaders of
both sides met to consult over certain
rules.
There Is little apprehension as to the
outcome of the negotiations and both
sides look to a speedy adjustment of af-
fairs. The utmost secrecy is being main
tanned. as the telegrapherS claim that
publicity would injurc their cause and
damage the business of the road to a
certain extent. 1t is probable that the
teleEraphers ard officials will resume
their regular conferences tomorrow. morn

Held on Assault Charge.

George w. Cobarth, a blacksmith at

Reading in the police court here yester-
day on charge of assault with intent
to kill preferred by Percy Lewis, also
of Boyds. He was required to furnish
500 bail for his appearance for a hear
ing next Tuesday morning. It is charged
that Cobarth and Lewis quarreled because
chickens belonging to the former had
scratched up seed planted by Lewis and
that Cobarth took a shot at Lewis.
At meeting of the base ball fans of
kensingtOn and vicinity j. Dawson Will
liams was named as chairman of a COM
mittee to wait upon President Thomas

Norman Elberfeld manager of the
Washington team to succeed Manager
McAleer. The committee will call upon
Mr.. Noyes within the very near future.
Elberfeld is a resident of the county,
his home being at Garrett Park but it is
not for that reason alone tina: his ap-
pointment is desired by the Montgomery
county roo;ers. 1t seems to be the con-
sensus of opinion among the county
enthusiasts that Elberfeld's knowledge
of the game. together with his ability to
inject ginger. make him an ideal man for
managerial duties.
The Montgomery county fans, all of
whom are loyal rooters for the Washing
ton team. are almost without exception
strong for the Garrett Park boy.
