Sad Story of Soldier, Candy, Police

James Forsberg, a member of Battery D.,

Myer, might have finished in peace the
candy he picked up fjn Thompson's drug
store, 7O3 18th street, early this morning.
AS it was. however, Policeman Bobo hap
pened along while the artilleryman was
still struggling with the refractory pal
ings. released him and put stop to his
feast.
FOrsberg, who, in an interview with
police authorities this morning, admitted
he had drank some intoxicating liquor
didn't intend to break into the drug store,
he says. He merely leaned up against an
inviting glass door and the door gave
way, precipitating him into the store
He picked up some candy and left.
Policeman BobO was soon in his wake,
and the man with the sweet tooth decided
it was time for him to get back to bar

the barracks lay, but the White House
grounds offered a short cut to some place,
SO he started across lots. He found
the trail led to difficulties only. and end

DEMUR TO INDICTMENTS.
Points Raised by Defendants Charged
With Running Bucket Shop.

Louis Celia, Angelo Celia and Samuel
w. Adler, who were indicted April 1
last, when the Department of Justice
spread its dragnet for alleged bucket
shop operators in seven cities of the
Union, have filed demurrers to the indict-
ments which charge conspiracy to oper-
ate a bucket shop and the actual opera
ton Of such a stock-broking office. The
same defendants also moved to quash the
latter Indictment
The demurrer to the conspiracy charge
is generally to the sufficiency of the in
dictment, and also raises the point that
the offense which the defendants are al
legged to have conspired to commit is an
offense against the District of Columbia,
instead of an offense against the United
States. To the charge Of keeping a
bucket shop the demurrer and motion to
uuash are addressed to the point that the
prosecution should have been in the name
of the District of Columbia, instead OF
the United States.
A. s. Worthngton. C. l.. F'raley and W.
X Ouinter represent the defendants.
The Ceilas and Adler are said to have
been connected with II. r. Duryee, who
conducted brokers' office at 1920 New
York avenue. Duryee and his operator,
Charles r. Alley, will also file demurrers

shop Their demurrers are being pre-
pared by Attorneys Cuttings and Cham

The Pay of the War Laborers.

To the Editor of The STAR
The members of the Civil War Labor
ers' Union desire to know, through the
columns of your paper, why the govern
ment will not pay them the money 1t de-
Quoted from their wages during the clVli
war. The government employed these
men with the understanding that they
were to receive from $50 to $50 per month,
but instead they were paid only 1870
and S2475 per month, a deduction of 500
and S1Oa5 from them, with the promise
that they were to get 1t after the war.
This deduction was made entirely with
out their consent, which was not asked;
neither were they told what the deduction
was for, and when they protested against
the deduction they were told the govern
ment was short of funds. We applied to
the War Department, also the secretary
Of the Treasury, and were told the rec
ords showed the deduction. but they were
powerless to pay the same unless Con-
gress made some provision for 1t. We
then applied to Congress. through bills,
three or four times. Some Of them were
pigeonholed,, one went before the Court OF
Claims and another went before COM
mittee on war claims. which recommend
ed the bill to Congress to be laid on the
table on the ground that these laborers
were colored and this deduction was for
the colored people who were captured
and taken In the lines from on the farms.
We ask the public, Was that fair to hire
a man and take part of his wages and
give it to another without his consent?
1t is the law that when one man hires an
other and refuses to pay him the court
makes him: but who is to make Uncle
Sam pay? We are all of US old now. We
gave our best days in laboring for Uncle
Sam, so we pray that Uncle Sam will
please pay us the money he owes u.s.

That Mount Vernon and the tomb Of
George Washington are run on the dime
museum principle is the plant Of the
Mount Vernon Anti-Fee Association.
voiced in a letter to the Commissioners.
The letter is signed by James R. Rich
ards, 1904 Wisconsin avenue. secretary
of the association. 1t is as follows:
AT a meeting Of the Mount Vernon
Anti-Fee Association, held last night. I
was requested to write you, entering a
protest against the Mount Vernon
Ladies' Association, the chief oujectors
against the site selected for a refOrma-
tory, and we contend that. as long as
Washington's tomb is managed on the
principle of the dime museum, then they
should be the last to object.
"First-It is a close corporation, with
a capital Of over 100000
''Second-It allows a boat and car mo-
nopoly for the purpose of extortion.
"Third-It has a fee system.
"Fourth-It allows the raising and
selling of animals on the estate for
money purposes.
"Fifth-The selling Of souvenirs.
which alone nets them $4,000 a year.
"Sixth-The selling of plants. flow
ers. etc.
"Seventh-That every catch-penny
idea is in vogue there.
THAT the present management al
lows these dissertations to be commit
ted from year to year. and we contend
the Commissioners Of the District
should not deviate from the steps al
ready taken.
1--WE claim there is no more national
disgrace to have refOrmatory there
than it is to maintain Mount Vernon on
the dime museum principle. We have
the facts, letters and papers IN our
possession They will be used before
the Virginia legislature.

C0mmends Tribe of Alabama.
Appeal to Congress.

The long-sOught-for good Indian" has
been found. Secretary Ballinger Of the
Interior Department has discovered his
type in the Alabama tribe in Texas. and
report has been sent to Congress ask
ing that everything possible be done to
keep him in the straight and narrow
path.
Poor 10 Of the Alabamas knows but
little of the trouble caused by fire

constitution for never has he been
known to get too much. He has aban-
doned tribal customs and adopted the
ways of the white man. They have
built little one-story houses for their
homes and are self-sustaining.
Congress solicits Information.
Congress not many months ago heard
of these Indians, and the Interior De-
partment was directed to inquire into
their condition. Secretary Ballinger re-
ports that they number 1872. have made
marked progress in civilization, are
claim on the government, but would like
more land to cultivate and school for
manual training.
The chances are. 1t is believed. that
Congress will be able to find more acre
age for them in the public lands of
Texas, and a school such as they want
will be given to them: in fact, everything
within reason Will be provided to keep

BOCEY GOLF RULES
IN ANOTHER MIDDLE
Code Drafted by Philadelphia
Committee Must Go Before
St. Andrews Club.

NEW YORK, January 7.-Every day
brings new developments In the tangle
over golf rules, the latest being an
nounced last night, that the new regula-
tions which are to come before the ma
tional association at its annual meeting
one week hence will not go into effect
until the st. Andrews committee has
passed upon them. That means inter-
minable delay.
Last season a special committee, of
which Joseph 8. Clark Of the Philadelphia
Cricket Club was the chairman, was ap-
pointed to draw up new DOGGY rules. The
report of the committee has been serious
iy criticised by British papers, especially
at two points. One of these is that a lost
Dall shall mean a lost hole, and the other.
that the ball must be played where it Lies.
Mr.. Clark, in response, has said he does
not care personally if these two match
play rules are approved or rejected, as he
considers them of minor importance. The
committee aimed at simplicity by making
competitions subject to medal rather than
match play rules.
More than a year ago the royal and
ancient club which has always had a
prejudice against Colonel Bogey. an
nounced that it would make regulations
for such contests, but that was the last
of it. In order to escape the probability
Of two distinct codes, here and abroad,
the officers of the United States Golf As
ISOLATION have decided to see If co-opera-
ton cannot be secured from st. Andrews,
even at the cost of decidedly amending
the rules proposed for this country. 1t is
also urged that 1t is inconsistent to set
up Independent DOGGY rules on this side,
without inviting suggestions abroad at the
same time that American players are
raising such din over the seif-sufficiency
of ST. Andrews in ignoring the United
States when it came to legislation on NAL
let-headed putters. The new turn means
that the DOGGY rules may be held up
many months, if not for all of the active
playing period of 1911.
