phia Untrue.

NEW YORK. Feb 4.-The fifty-fourth
day of the absence of Dorothy Arnold

pearance and present whereabouts as
deep as ever. Her father Francis X.
Arnold, wealthy importer, denied this

delphia that the girls brother. John W.
Arnold, had located her In that city.
Attorney John S. Keith, who accom-
panied Miss Arnold's brother in his
search through Philadelphia, Joined the
father today in declaring that the re-
port from Philadelphia was untrue. He
announced that the girls brother had
returned from Philadelphia, unsuccess-
full and added:
MIR. Arnold worked on a number of
good clues in Philadelphia, but they
were without result. Miss Arnold may
be in Philadelphia, but We have not
found her"
Excitement was caused here today by
the dispatches saying that the girl had
been found in the Quaker City. They
stated that young Arnold had visited
the office of Captain Souder and had
announced that the girl had been found.

Babies Must Have
Em-What Are They?

What is a turnus papilo and a cecropia
attacus?
The first person sending in the COR
rect answer to the above questions will
be given an unobstructed view of the
Washington Monument from the room
of NJ. c. Hargrove, property clerk of
the District.
Mr.. Hargrove has received from a
teacher in one Of the kindergartens a
request for fifty turnus papilo and 100
cecropia attacus. Added to this is the
interesting and not enlightening infor-
nation that the papilo and cecrOpia at
tacus are living pupae of the North
American Lepidoptera," and may be
purchased from a firm in Philadelphia.
The latter statement affords only
partial solution of Mr.. Hargrove's diff
ficulty.
In order to conform with the law, the
purchase of the pupae must be decided
by competition, the award going to the
firm submitting the lowest bid. Not
only is Mr.. Hargrove in ignorance of
the habits, appearance, and characteris-
tics of the North American lepidoptera,
but he knows of only one firm where
they may be obtained.
1t was rumored that DIR. William Tin
dali, secretary to the Board of Commits
sioners, had pronounced the pupae
species of silkworm, but verification of
this could not be obtained, as the doc
tor refused to make a statement for
publication.

PAYING
FOR SUPERVISION
Say District Ought Not Pay
Extra Money for Play
grounds.

A strong protest was made today by
the executive committee of the Cham
Der Of Commerce against the idea of
saddling entirely on the revenues of the
District the appropriation for the SUPER
vision of Fairgrounds. The protest was
made to the subcommittee of the Sem
ate Appropriations Committee, which
has charge of the District appropriation
bill. In this bip is a $4,000 appropria-
tion for supervision of Fairgrounds to
come out of District revenues.
Former District Commissioner II. b.
f. Macfarland spoke for the execu-
tive committee. That body was rep
resented by Chairman lanes +.
Oyster. William T. Guide, l.. 5. Porter.
A. L. Sinclair. Mr.. MacfarIand. pro-
tested the violation of the organic
act of the District contemplated IN
the proposed arrangement which fall
ed to impose half the cost of super
vision of the Fairgrounds on the gen.
eral Government and half on the Dis
trict and instead would put the whole
burden on the District. He told the
subcommittee that public sentiment
In Washington was strongly against
any such violation of the organic act.
The executive committee through Mr.
Macfarland, pointed out that the House
bill appropriated 5000 for maintenance
of Fairgrounds, half to come from the
District revenues and half from the
general Government. He insisted there
was no reason whatever why the allow
ance for supervision should not be di-
Vided the same way.
Mr.. Macfarland also said the Senate
Committee last year had stood firmly
by the organic act, and he was conf
dent II would again do so.

Teacher Has Sued
To Recover Salary

Teachers In the public schools of
the District intend to test in the
courts the ruling of the Comptroller
Of the Treasury that they cannot en-
ploy substitute teachers during their
absence at a less salary than is paid
them.
The test suit TO determine the legal
points involved was filed in the Dis
trict Supreme Court today by
Mildred Dean, a teacher in the Cen
tral High School. against the District
of Columbia to recover 1920 she al
leges is due her as a consequence OF
deductions from her regular salary.
Miss Dean AYERS in her bill, which
was filed by Attorney A. S. Worthing-
ton, that her salary as a teacher in
class s, group A, is 81 800 per year. She
claims that her pay checks from May,
1910, to December 81, 1910, aggregated
only $730, whereas her compensation
should total 1850 for the period.
BY order of Auditor Tweedale, in ac-
cordance with the ruling of the Comp
troller Of the Treasury Miss Dean
states that her pay check on January
l was for only $50, as compared with
$40 for the previous month.
Every teacher in the District is in
terested in the question involved, as

judgment sought the ruling of the

Archbishop Ryan Signs
A Deathbed Check

PHILADELPHIA, Feb. 4.-Archbishop
Ryan was much improved today, having
passed a comfortable night, and sleep
ing well.
Late last night he insisted that all
letters and kilograms which had been
received should be read to him. Among
them was telegram from Bishop
Walsh, of Portland, Me-, and another
from Adolphus Busch, the st. Louis
brewer, who is nof in California. His
telegram read:

When a letter appealing for a worthy
charity was read to him, the archbishop
asked for pen and ink and a check
blank Father Kavanagh, his secretary,
protested. suggesting that he wait until
morning, as the check could not be
cashed before daylight.
NO" replied the sick prelate, while
my check may not be good until morn

cashed and the charity is aided with 1t.
But no one can tell whether l shall be
able to sign a check when morning

CURFEW
LAW IS ATTACKED
Father Russell Declares
Parent Is Guardian
of Child.

After declaring that this idea Of leg
islating virtue is all humbug," the Rev.
Father William T. Russell, rector of ST.
Patrick's Catholic Church, today issued
a signed statement, in which he op-
posed the passage of bill providing
for the establishment of curfew regula-
ton in the District OF Columbia. His
statement is the first direct opposition
to the curfew committee Of loo, repre-
senting the Woman's Christian Tenn
perance Union, which is backing the
curfew measure.
The Rev. Father Russell takes his
stand against the bill because he be-
lieves 1t usurps the rights Of the par
ents. He claims that the parent is the
natural guardian of the child, and that
the state is not. The Rev. Father Rus
sell claims that the enactment OF the
curfew law would result in greater
evils than 1t seeks to prevent. His Of
fetal statement is as follows:
II am well acquainted with the evils
which the proposed curfew bill Is in
tended to prevent. While regretting the
negligence of many parents to safe
guard their children against dangerous
doing justice to the praiseworthy inten-
tions of those who have formulated the
proposed legislation, i am convinced
that it would be better to bear the ills
We know of than commit ourselves to
legislation such as this bill proposes,
which would create greater wrong than
that it seeks to prevent.
fhe parent is the natural guardian
Of the child-not the state. When the
negligence of the parent endangers the
peace or welfare of the state, the state
should have the power to remedy and to
punish. If the police and the courts
have not sufficient power TO protect the
social well-being, additional powers can
be given without going the length Of
this drastic bill, which, to my view,
usurps the rights OF parents. / am
opposed to the present bill"
In discussing the proposed curfew law,
the Rev. Father Russell said that the
proper method of caring for the chill
dren is through education. He said that
the parents should teach the children
what is right and what Is wrong. He
assumes the attitude that the parents
are responsible If their children are out
at unseemly hours, and that II Is tho
parents who should remedy the situa-
lion. He can see no good in a law.
calling for the arrest of the child.
The Rev. Father Russell's opposition
came Unexpectedly. for II was generally
supposed all pastors, both Catholic anC
Protestant, would give their support to
the curfew law. NUMBER of those on
the committee, which is promoting the
measure, are pastors.
