ANGLERS STIRRED Up

These provisions. contained in a bill

Members Of the Fish and Game Pro

such a provision would make IT impossi-
BILE to catch perch in the District. since
very few perch in District waters meas

the House District committee and state
their objections to the measure.
Maj. Richard Sylvester. president OF

thought the prohibitive size should be
made under three inches, and the Fish

more than eight inches long that came
out of District waters. They generally
run from four to six inches. Perch
longer than eight inches are caught in

A regulation prohibiting catching or
bringing into the District perch under

and would seriously limit the supply Of

The uneven distribution of churches to
population in this country was emphasiz-
ed today in the reports Of cooperative
advance in home missions presented at
the annual meeting of the executive
committee Of one hundred OF the Federal
Council of the Church Of Christ of
America.
Not only in populous and growing cities
is there undue multiplication of churches
in certain neighborhoods, but it was esti-
mated that through eleven mountain and
Pacific states beyond the Mississippi
there are more than 1000 communities
destitute Of churches Of any kind. Speak
ing Of the results of investigation In one
western state which was taken as typical,
the report says:
The Investigations are surprise even
to those intimately familiar with western
conditions. One hundred and thirty-three
places were found, ranging in population
from 80 to 1000 souls, without Protes-
tant churches of any kind, and 100 OF
these were without Roman Catholic
church. Some of these places have two
or three saloons and other agencies OF
evil, but no preaching Of the gospel
Communities Hard to Reach.
TT Is not to be assumed that the
communities thus indicated are all vii
lagos. Some Of them are rural COM
munities, some are mining communities
scattered up and down a narrow val
ley, being thus difficult to care for. In
addition to these, in one state there are
42S communities of sufficient impor-
lance to have post offices, but without
any churches. Counting post office
neighborhoods, the ratio Of destitute
communities to total population is
more than 1000 in the eleven noun
tain and Pacific states in the west

gational Church last night. OF particular
interest were the remarks OF Rev. Dr.
Charles l.. Thompson. secretary OF the
Presbyterian board Of home missions
who spoke on 1.-The Federal Council OF
the Churches and Home Missions"
The overlapping in home mission work
by the various denominations was the
particular theme OF DR.. Thompson. With
church unity he pointed out that IN q

home mission boards would not place
two churches for both to die shortly. rather
than one to live and "Our1sh. he de-
clared that this overlap org was not con-
fined to the west and that one need MOI

shame of the cities in this overcrowdtns
of the sections by the various denomina-
tions.
With the return to reason which would
follow the unity of the denominations. he
declared this fault speedily would pass
away and the great field would be COW

mainly with II for Christ. III conclusion
he urged that special effort be made at
this meeting to carry forward the banner
ing ever forward toward the general
union which all have in contemplation.

tism.''
Dr. Woodward was discussing the case

Parablay to Be Isolated.

Parablay will soon be taken to the house
on reservation 13, formerly occupied by
John Early, who was declared to be q
leper in this city and not a leper in New
York city. The present leper will have to
stay alone in the house, exactly as Early
did. although the health office will un-
doubtedly have to furnish guards to main
tain the quarantine.
The District officials are not at all anX-
ious to have him as a charge ON the Dis
trict. and it is understood that the sew
eral state leper colonies are not anxious
to take patients from outside communi-
ties.

the exhibition of craftsmanship was

stood by glumily, shaking their heads
over good money burned up to make

by Governor Hay of Washington, the

Governor Woodrow Wilson's atten-

Governor Wilson had nothing to say
in reply but Ex-Governor Fort Of New

1t was he who as governor of New Jer-
sey got the conference for Spring

row Wilson had nothing to do with it.
Moreover, he added, Governor Osborn
wrote on Aug. 16 last and again on
Aug. 80 that he was looking forward
with pleasure to being here. All of the
governors Joined in saying that it was
decidedly untrue and unfair to Gov

INSANE AT BROTHERS GRAVE
Myrtle Smith Now Lies In HospitaI
Near Man Held For Crime.


Washington, Sept. 14.-Myrtle Smith,
pretty youthful sister of the lad who
was murdered in an Italian shoemak-
er's shop last Sunday-the place after
ward being set on fire In an attempt
to conceal the crime, became insane at
Mount Olivet cemetery when the body
of the little victim was being lowered
into the grave. She tried to jump in
the grave and 1t required four men to
restrain her. Finally it became neces-
sary to bind her hands and feet Then
the girl was taken to the Washington
asylum, where she lies on a cot not
hundred yards from the cell in which
Tony Malino, the Shoemaker by
trade" In whose shop little Harry
Smith was brutally beaten to death
with a steel hammer, is confined on
charge of having committed the muir
der.
Physicians at the hospital say that
the young woman is in a serious condi-
ton and that her reason may never
be restored, even if her life is saved.
Mrs. Smith, mother of the murdered
boy, and his little sister May are both
Frustrated at their homes.
At the inquest which held Milano
for the crime the theory was deve-
oped that the Italian, who had long
been the butt of mischievous boys of
the neighborhood, thought the Smith
boy, who suffered, was trying to mock
him, and killed the lad In fit Of rage.
