CLASSES TO HOLD
SEPARATE EXERCISES
Graduating Programs to Be
Given in the Various
Schools.

For the first time in the history OF
the high schools mid-winter gradual
ing exercises will be held this winter
in each school.
This announcement was made today
by superintendent of Schools A I.
Stuart following the granting OF per-
mission by the Board of Education for
holding such exercises.
The decision settles the mooted
point of what to do with the classes
that will hereafter graduate in mid
winter as the result of the introduc-
tion of the semester promotion sys-
tenn four years ago
1t was originally proposed to have
all the midwinter pupils hold their
exercises together as this year there
are but sixty diplomas to be issued
in all the high schools. and the num-
ber of graduates in midseason Is ex-
pected to be considerably smaller
than the spring classes for several
years.

FAMILY ESCAPES
DEATH FROM GAS
Accidentally Turned on by
One of the Seven
1 Children.

Maurice Friedlander, a paperhanger,
thirtv-six years old, his wife, Mrs. Mary
Friedlander. lhirty-five, and their seven
children narrowly escaped death by
asphyxiation about o'clock this morn
ing, when gas was discovered flowing
from an open jet on the second floor of
their home, 1927 Union street southwest.
The gas is believed 10 have been acci-
dertally turned on by one of the
children.
Awakened by the odor of escaping
gas, Mrs. Friedlander called her hus-
band, who opened all the windows, and
began a search for the source of es-
Gaping gas. A jet in the back room, oc-
cupied by three of the children, was
found partially open. A hurry call was
sent to the Emergency Hospital, but
when the ambulance arrived, the sur
geon found that none of the family had
inhaled much of the gas, and it was
not necessary to take any of them to the
hospital.
Another escape from death by acci-
dental asphyxiation occurred late yes
terday afternoon, when Mrs. Mary j.
Stevens, thirty-flve years old, of 1900
New Jersey avenue northwest, was
found in a state of semi-coma from
inhaling illuminating gas. Feeling in
disposed. Mrs Stevens went to her
room to lie down, and a half an hour
later other persons living in the house
were attracted by the escaping gas
The woman, partly undressed, was ly-
ing on the bed. An ambulance was
called, but she was soon revived, and
declined hospital treatment.
Mrs. Stevens explained to the sur
Eeon that ii was dark when she wen-
TO- her room, and before lying down.
she lighted the gas. In eXtinguishirg
the light, Mrs. Stevens said she had
probably turned the thumbscrew too
far
The Washington times., 1911-01-10

Official Washington, comprising men,
bers of the House and Senate, Cabinet
officers, diplomats, and officers Of the
army and navy, are having a mighty
difficult time to keep their New Year
temperance resolutions. Not in many
years have there been SO many OBJ
stacles in the path of the water wagon
SO soon after the first of the year.
p Aside from the strictly private func-
t1ons at the homes of society, there are
enough events scheduled for the next
two weeks in Washington to make the
average occupant of the water wagon
utterly miserable during his stay on
that vehicle.
The serious trouble began this week,
when the delegation Of boomers from
New Orleans began a series of enter
tainments for the purpose Of demon
stratlng that the Queen City is the place
to celebrate the opening of the Panama
Canal.
These New Orleans folks did not begin
to do business on a large scale until
Monday night, when they turned their
specially imported bartenders loose to
feed Washington on their far-famed
gin nzZ, with numerous hysleTious' pul
delicious, Creole dishes on the side.
Started By the President.
President Taft contributed to the woes
of the water wagon brigade in planning
his first great reception of the year on
Tuesday night. The President last year
reverted to an old custom of serving a
buffet luncheon at theI state receptions,
included with which was punch. The
White House punch is not strong

Plea for Leniency
Astounds London Court

LONDON. Jan. 10.-Augustus Finch.
London manager for the brokerage
firm of Phelps, Dodge & Company, of
New York, was found guilty today Of
misappropriation of $4,000, and was
sentenced to one year in prison. The
former employers of Finch asked the
court, through counsel. to have mercy
on Finch and deal gently with him. The
bench criticised this request as extra
ordinary, but were guided by it in deal
ing out the sentence. Finch was ac-
cused of selling copper shares and
retaining the proceeds. instead of send
ing them to the main office in New
York.
