ROLPH wins May
Orally CONTEST

The latest returns of the primary
election held Tuesday in the city of
San Francisco indicate that James
Rolph, Jr., has not only received the
biggest plurality ever given in the his
tory of that city for a candidate for
mayor, but will have clear majority
of over 1000 votes over all the mayor
atty candidates. This mans that under
the new primary law the Office of may
or will not have to be contested at the
regular election in November.
The counting of the ballots is very
slow and but about half the districts
have been able to report full returns;
but there is no possibility of change
in the result, except that the complete
returns may show Rolph to have re-
eeived an even bigger vote.
AS far as the office of district attor-
ney is concerned there has been no
decisive result. District Attorney
Eickert receievd a larger vote than his
opponent, but did not get majority
over all, so this Office will have to be
contested for in November and Flick
ert rs opponent then will be Ralph
Hathborn.

INCIDENT OF THE LATE
SPANISH AMERICAN WAR

"There is a passage of diplomacy
which has never been officially dis
closed, but which is highly illustrative
of the very recent attitude of Europe
toward our pretensions as sponsors of
Monroeism,' writes Judson G.. Welli-
yer in an article "The New Era in
Our Relation with Latin America,' in
Munsey s for October. "On the eve of
the clash of arms in the Spanish
American war of 1898 the ambassa-
dors of several continental powers in
Washington met, under the direction
of their various foreign Offices, and
formulated a 'comminatory note to
the United States government.
cit was actually drafted, and the
continental powers were united in it..
1t vigorously suggested displeasure at
our attitude toward Spain, and threat
ened that if we took Cuba we must pay
for it, or be prepared for consequences
which were not defined, but which it
was indicated would follow.
"That note was never despatched to
the state department, because the Brit
ish ambassador, in turn acting under
instructions from his government, de-
clined to join the list of signers..'

MACK'S BANJO PLAYING A
REVELATION TO AUDIENCE

The playing of Frank Mack, the
well known banjoist, at the Nixon
opera house moving picture shows, is
somewhat of a revelation to his audi
ence as to the possibilities of the
banjo. His rendering of the "Mis-
erere' from ''n Trovatore,' was a
performance of genuine merit, Mack
producing tone effects which seemed
almost incredible as far as the banjo
is concerned. His third number, the
Mack Rag" is his own composition.
1t was well received.
The moving pictures continue to be
of the same high order. There is =

ANACOSTIA.

Reports received at the eleventh pre-
cinct police station from nearby farms
are TO the effect that considerable damage
was dane to crops Sunday afternoon by
the rain and hail storm. The hail was so
large and was driven with such force by
the heavy winds that corn was knocked
fat and fruit torn from the trees. Sew
eral telegraph poles are down as a re-
suit of the wind, and in some places COM
munication has been cut off.
Many owners of gardens in Anacostia
and adjoining sections have requested
permits from the eleventh precinct to
shoot crows. which they claim are de-
stroying their crops. The requests will be
granted.
Work is now under way on the laying
of a sewer main along 18th street from
T street south, and when this work is
completed other small sewer lines are to
be laid in this section.
The published statement to the effect
that the Brotherhood of the Anacostia
Methodist Episcopal Church had taken
final action in the case of the petition
being circulated requesting the druggists
to close their places of business on Sun
days was an error. The action in ques-
ton will be taken at a meeting to be
held Thursday evening of this week.
Several members. however, are IN favor
of the petition, and owing to the small
number present Sunday final action was
deferred until another time.
