surrounds Girard college that has for
years been the object OF a juvenile ira
dition. says the Philadelphia Record.

perfectly round In shape and a peculiar
reddish brown In color. There is not
a boy who lives in that section who
does not regard it as the lucky stone
and call It such According to the

passes it should spit on It and make a

LAND FOR FORT
BLISS EXTENSION
Surveyors Mapping
Tract of 100000 Acres
Just Over State Line

A survey is being made Of 100000
acres Of government land lust across the
Texas New Mexico state line. The Uur-
pose OF the survey is to scrip q sufficient
amount Of land for the target ranges and
nlaneuver fields for the United States

ed for the enlarged post the additional
land on the mesa may be used for q

The land is a part Of a large tract Of
state land in New Mexico. There is but
one private tenant on the entire tract

NAGEL SAYS NEW
BUILDING WILL NOT
Be LARGE ENOUGH
Secretary Undecided What
to Do, and May Appeal
to Congress.

The new building for the Department
of Commerce, to be located on the five
squares fronting Fifteenth street, south
of Pennsylvania avenue, will not be
big enough to house the entire depart
ment, and all its bureaus In the opinion
of Secretary Nagel and the other Of
ficials of the department.
Secretary Nagel reached this conclu-
sion today after comforting with the
architects for the new building. The
Secretary said the plans for the new
building are satisfactory to him in so
far as they have been completed, but
that he is convinced the building will
not be large enough. to provide sufflci-
ent room for future growth
At the beheSt of his subordinates the
Secretary is today considering a request
to the proper authorities to house either
the Bureau Of Fisheries or the Coast
and Geodetic Survey in the outside OF
the main building.
The new Commerce and Labor build
ing, which, INTELLECTUALLY, met the ap-
prevail of the Fine Arts Commission. Is
&c be five stories high, and will have
an approximate net floor space of 300 :
900 square feet. The architects are now
considering plan to put a sixth story
on the inner court. where II would not
be seen from the outside of the building.
thereby giving an additional 3O'V'
square feet.

Counsel for Miller
Asks for Retrial

Millions for a new trial and an ar
rest of judgment were filed this morn
ing in Criminal Court No. by J. Bar
ton Miller, alleged embezzler Of $l35, Coz
os secretary of the defunct
First COOPERATIVE Building Association
of Georgetown appealing from his con-
Viction by Jury last Tuesday of embez-
element and secreting or destroying tie
books Of his company.
Attorneys Henry z. Davis and John
z. Laskey filed Miller's motions for a
new trial, which will probably be heard
next Friday by Justice Wright. II the
motions are overruled, Justice Wright,
Il is expected, will Immediately sentence
Miller to the penitentiary.
Seven formal grounds are specified IN
the motion for a new trial, in which
Miller asserts the verdict Of the jury
was contrary to the evidence and was
unsupported by evidence. He excerpts to
rulings of Justice Wright admitting and
excluding certain evidence, and in
granting and refusing certain instruc-
tons to the jury.
The motion says there is no al
legation in the indictment that any
person or the Georgetown association
was interested in the missing books
or any entry therein, having no
declaration Of the names Of any per-
sons whose rights could be injured
by their loss.
Miller has announced he will prose-
cute an appeal to the highest tribunal
possible If his conviction is sustain
ed
