HONOR MISS DESHA
Funeral Arrangements for
D. A. r. Founder to Be
Made Tomorrow.

Arrangements for the funeral of Miss
Mary Desha, founder of the D. 4. r.,
who died suddenly last night, will not be
completed until tomorrow.
Mrs. Matthew Scott. president general
of the D. A. R, has appointed a COM
mittee on arrangements to act in con-
ference with friends of the family, the
L. d. c., Confederate Veterans, Mary
Washington Memorial Association, Po-
cahontaS Memorial Association, and any
other patriotic organizations with which
Miss DeSha was connected.
The meeting will be held this after
noon at o'clock in the board room of
Memorial Continental Hall, where a COM
mittee on resolutions. comprising Mary
Lockwood, chairman Mary Wilcox +;
recording secretary: Cyrus Backus, vice
regent of Miss Deshas chapter; Mrs.
Woodbury. Pulsifcr, vice state regent of
the District, and Mrs. II. l.. Mann, re-
gent of Dolly Madison Chapter, will be
present.
George Lyman Chalkley, dean of
Washington and Lee Law College, her
nephew and nearest relative, was no
tined of her death last night, but will
be unable TO be here to arrange for the
funeral.
Mrs. Scott has suggested that funeral
take place from Memorial Hall and has
directed that the flag over the edifice
be lowered to half mast until after the
burial takes place.
Miss Desha, who was a native Of
Kentucky, was siXty-five years old and
had been a resident of the Capital for
over twenty years. During her life in
Washington she was an employe of the
Government, serving in several depart
ments. She was not only one of the
founders of the D. A. R., but was the
founder of the Mary Washington and
Pocahontas Memorial Association and
was closely identified with all.
While nothing definite is known it is
thought probable that the body will be
taken to ner old home, near Lexington,
KY, for inte-ment.

he had, when in Congress, advocated
the passage of reciprocity act such as
now recommended by the President, and
that he felt that his course was now
Vindicated.
Representative Gillett, OF Massachu-

House that in his Judgment the Presi-
dent would call an extra session Of
Congress only to forestall a filibustar
on his reciprocity measure

misgiving, whether they could spare
any more. Have just received their

View No. 1 and and the Honolulu
Consolidated were formerly the prop
erty of Captain Matson. 1t includes
the best oil territory in the United

brought in another twenty thousand
barrel well, and the Honolulu Consol-
idated a fifteen thousand barrel well.
Lake View No. 2 is going down

as Lake Views wonderful gusher
which has done as high as ninety thou
