TO BE BURIED AT ANNAPOLIS.
Body of Commander Gates Will Be
Inferred in Academy Cemetery.

The body of Commander Herbert G.
Gates, United States Navy, who died at
the Naval Medical School Hospital in this
city early yesterday morning will be
taken to Annapolis Md, tomorrow
morning for burial in the cemetery at
tached to the Naval Academy. Funeral
services will be held in the Naval
Academy Chapel at o'clock in the
afternoon. and burial will be attended
with full military honors. The hon.
orary pallbearers will be Commander L.
III. Chandler, Commander Henry A.
Wiley. Commander S. s. Robson, Com
mander A l.. Norton. Commander b. f.
Hutchinson and Commander l.. NJ. Mutton
The first four named officers were class
mates of Commander Gates.
Although Commander Gates was a
native of Michigan. his family regarded
Annapolis as his home, mainly because
when the officer was not on sea duty he
usually was attached to the Naval
Academy. That fact partly explains
why the interment is to be made at the
Maryland capital, and not at the Ar
lington national cemetery. Commander
Gates was serving as executive officer
of the battleship Minnesota. engaged
in maneuvers off Guantanamo, Cuba
when he was taken with the illne SIS
which resulted in his death in this city
few weeks later.

MASONRY AS A POWER
FOR THE WORLDS GOOD
DR.. Abram Simon breaches
Special Sermon in Honor of
Grand Lodge Centennial.

"a discussion in q Sabbath service Of
the field and function Of secret organi-
cation would ordinarily call for an ex-
PLANTATION. A movement. however, which
commands the enthusiasm of one million
intelligent men in the United States.
which can win their loyalty and inspire
them to ethical endeavor and moral earn
estness has very strong claim upon the
appreciation of every civilizing agency
It was thus that DR.. Abram Simon. at
the Eighth Street Temple of the Wash
ington Hebrew Congregation, last evening
introduced a special sermon preached by
him in honor of the centennial anniyer-
sary of the Grand Lodge. F. A. A. NJ, of
the District of Columbia, the official cele-
bration of which begins at Masonic Tenn
pie this evening.
Nine thousand men in the District of
Columbia, no small army of peace work
ers. form unit of spiritual and philan-
thropic strength that needs to be reckon
ed with" continued DR.. Simon.
Ethical and Social Service.
After explaining that the joyous pride
OF the Jew in the fraternity of Masonry
is not because its symbolism and mes
sage are TOOlou III Tue OlQ Testament dnQ
in the Temple Of Solomon. but because the
army of monotheists is thereby manifi-
Gently strengthened, the cause Of tolera-
ton anG fraternity superbly enhanced
and the Messianic goal of the largest
brotherhood considerably brought nearer
Realization, DR.. Simon declared: Masonry
as a strongly knit power of ethical and
social service. takes it's place among the
healthy forces which are doing the
worlds work for the worlds happiness"
Masonry is not religion. and it does
not claim to be considered one but any
statement to the effect that 1t is irreligious
or even unreligious is a palpable error
and can only be the result Of misunder-
standing and ignorance. Masonry is not
competing cult; 1t is distinct yet not
separate from religion. The fields wherein
religion and Masonry ply their respective
vocations call for no antagonism on the
part of either
Both the Grand Lodge and the constit-
uent lodges of the District were largely
represented in the audience that taxed
the capacity of the temple. An exception
ally fine musical program was rendered by
the choir.

TRAMP THROWS BRICK,
BREAKS GOULD WINDOW
Angered Because He Was Re.
fused Aims at Fifth Ave-
nue. Mansion.

NEW YORK, February 1S.-Angered
when refused aims at the door, dishev-
eled tramp retired to the street and
hurled brick through one of the library
windows Of Miss Helen Gould's 9Th ave-
nue. residence last night. Miss Gould
was in an adjoining room and was I'M
hurt, but Mrs. Edward Scholes, standing
near the window. was struck squarely
on the head and escaped serious injury
only because of an abundance of hair.
AS 1t was she was knocked PROSTATE
and a large bump raised at the base of
her skull.
Miss Gould hurried into the library
when she heard the crash and the butler
Summoned the police.
Not Seriously Injured.
Mrs. Scholes refused medical atten-
ton. and. with the shock of the blow
over, explained that she was not badly
hurt. The butler told the police that an
unkempt man, wearing a black SLOUGH
hat. and apparently under the influences
Of liquor, had lurched up to the house
shortly before { O'Clock. He rang the
bell until the butler answered, then de-
manded to see Miss Gould.
The butler told him that Miss Gould
was engaged, but the man insisted that
she had helped him before and that he
was in dire distress now. He was so per-
sistent that when the butler attempted
TO shut the door he placed his foot in
the opening and withdrew it only when
the heavy door squeezed it painfully.
Cursed as He Left.
AS the stranger left the butler says he
heard him curse Justify, and five minutes
later the brick came hurtlng through the
window.
Mrs. Scholes' profile could be seen plain
~ from the street, and the police believe
that the tramp mistook her for Miss
Gould The brick be obtained from
building under construction nearby. The
police searched all night for the tramp.
but without success.

Many of the large libraries of the
United States, including the District Pub
