the many unusual features mark
ing Baltimore's water famine, which
has been acute for the past two
weeks. So dirty did the water become
that nobody would drink IL. Wells and
springs all around the city have been
pressed into service. while water com

The Belvedere Hotel has its own pri-
Yate artesian well. and the management
made arrangements today 20 distribute

who came for tt Many aristocratic
homeS in the exclusive district were

the background in order to furnish
"baCkground' for other members Of the
Columbia Players.
Nelson, Van Buren, Glendinning, and
others of the players" have their
scenes, but all scenes are Golding's. for
he has painted the settings.
Mr.. Golding came to Washington from
New York. He was engaged in promi-
nent scenic studios in New York for
years before Manager Berger, OF the
Columbia. says he discovered" him
for the benefit of Washington theater-
gOerS.

Superior Ventilation
On New Ocean Liners

Ventilation constitutes the most DIFF

vexed point has been solved in the case

nothing to be desired. The combined

In addition to more than 2,OCO win

Harrison Political Rendez-
vous, Revival Of Early
Campaigns, To Be Razed.

The destruction of the old Benjamin
Harrison" log cabin in Takoma ParK'
built during the first campaign OF Ben
ianin Harrison for the Presidency, Will
remove a District landmark that for
the last quarter of a century has been
one of the many objects OF interest near
Washington.
II was built In July, 1883 during the
revival of the "log-cabin and hard
cider" political war cry in the campaign
of BENJAMIN Harrison, twenty-third
President of the United States. FASH
Toned after the plan of the log cabins
famous in the time of Gen. William
Henry Harrison, of the "Tippacanoe and
Tyler. too campaign, grandfather Of
the later Harrison, it still remains,
crowning the hill at the sharp turn Of
Carol avenue, in Takoma Park.
Originally built of logs and poles. the
first covering Of clapboard shingles has
fallen, the action of the elements has
rated the once sturdy rafters, the
floor has decayed, and now only a skele-
ton of the former building remains.
The ground upon which it stands be-
longs to a syndicate, and soon the old
cabin will be razed to make way for
modern buildings.
The old building has had a varied
history. 1t was designed originally as
place for political meetings, then
Cor a time 1t was used as a church
Later 1t was the town hall. housing the
fire engine of the village, and finally
two iron cells we're placed there, and
the building was the town jail.
The political use of the old cabin was
accompanied by ali the noise and para
phernalia Of the campaigns of half
century earlier. Citizens in coonSkin
caps, wearing the hunting shirt of by
gone days and bearing the torch and
traditional red fire. marched and coun-
termarched on Carol avenue. ending
at the political rendezvous on the hill.
When first built the old cabin had a
''watch-tower," more than forty feet
high, from the top of. which stretches
Of Maryland, Virginia, Washington, and
the Potomac were viewed. The tower
fell about ten years ago.
One of the most prominent of the
citizens interested in the building OF
the old cabin was the late B. F. Gilbert,
of Takoma Park. He was the leader
in the movement that caused the cabin
TO be built. Associated with him were
Col G. c. Kniffn. CT. l.. Favorite.

HEALTH BOARD TALKS
OVER NEW MILK LAWS.
Proposed Regulation of Ice
Cream Also Discussed.

Bills now pending in the State
Legislature regarding milk and dairy
conditions We're the subject of lengthy
discussion at the meeting of the Board
of Health last night. Particularly
lively was the bill prepared by George
w. Mcguire, State dairy commissioners
which includes provisions regulating
the manufacture of Ice cream.
Other bills discussed were Senate bill
No. So. which would make 1t manda-
tory that the physicians should report,
within twelve hours Of their first off,
cial visit, every case of contagious and
infectious diseases existant in places
where milk is sold to the secretary OF
the State Board of Health, and Senate
bill No. 152. providing that physicians
of the State shall, within twelve hours
of their first official visit, report to the
assessor of the township wherein II
occurs every case of contagious and
infectious disease. Reference was made
to Senate bill No. 80, which provides
for h inspection of oyster and CLAIM
beds, and gives the inspector power to
condemn any such beds the waters of
which are found to be polluted.
The board was informed that the Es-
sex County Medical Milk Commission
had adopted a code of rules to be
observed by all drivers of milk wagons
while collecting bottles from places
where persons were infected with con-
tagious diseases.
What arrangements will be made by
the board toward the releasing of the
present quarters of the board will be
decided by a committee comprising
President Herold, Commissioner Baker
and Health officer Chandler. Last
night a communication was read from
the Ward-Gehin Company in which
that concern stated that it was ready
to lease the present quarters to the
board on a three-year basis for $4,000
annually, or that it would lease it for
one year for So, 90.
