Spring street residents are still talk

Is months old daughter of Mr.. and
Mrs. Howard Hunt, "a Spring street,
who at about 2.30 yesterday fell from
a second story window and received
nothing more than a pair of swollen
lips, which injury was almost entirely

been put to bed early in the forenoon
by her mother. Being attracted hy

open window at her side, the child
crawled out on the ledge and losing
her grip whirled through the air to
the ground. fifteen feet below. striking
on her chin. The sudden change of
position naturally alarmed the little
one. whose cries brought forth the ter
rifed mother, who expected to see
nothing less than the nangled form of
her child. A hurried Gull was sent in
for Dr. F. L Burnell, who after thor
ough examination could find nothing
more than pair of swollen lips as the
result of the little ones fall.-Hartford

STATE FORESTER
Warns Local Fire Wardens to Issue Nc
Permits at Present.

Orders directing that no permits be
issued for the kirdling of fires of any
sort on land adjoining woodland until
the present drouth is broken were is
sued Tuesday from the office of the
state forester in New Haven to all To-
cal fire wardens throughout the state.
The orders read:
Tissue no permits for the kindling
of fires of any sort of land adjoining
woodland until the present drouth is
broken by abundant rainfall
make special efforts to apprehena
and prosecute violaters of the forest
fire laws.
The situation is regarded as very
serious IN many cases, it is stated, the
area of woodland burned over being
between 5000 and 1000 acres, and in
the opinion of the state forester calls
for special efforts if the forests of the
state are to be saved. The total acre
aga devastated thus far is estimated
roughly at about 10000.
While in most cases the fires, it is
stated, may be due to carelessness and
thoughtlessness, and only in a few
cases kindled Intentionally, violatcrs
of the law. it is stated, will be rigidly
dealt with.

DIES IN HOSPITAL
Wife of DR.. E. Y. Gilchrist
Yields to Burns.
HEATED STOVE Is OVERTURNED
Clothing IEnited by Flames After
She Trips Over Pet Cat in Kitchen
Attempt to Extinguish Blaze.
Physicians' Efforts Prove Useless.

Mrs. Lula B. Gilchrist, wife Of Dr. E. Y.
Gilohrist, of 3n3 Seventh street southeast,
died at Casualty Hospital yesterday af-
ternoon at AS o'clock as the result of
injuries sustained when her clothing
ignited from the flames of a gas stove
which she was carrying.
The stove had been used for heating
plates and Mrs. Gilchrist was moving il
to another table when she fell over a
pet cat, the heated stove soaring her
hands and arms and destroying her hair.
DR.. Gilchrist, hearing the screams of
his wife. hurried to the kitchen. and in
an endeavor to extinguish the flames by
wrapping his coat around her body, was
badly burned about the hands and arms.
The injured couple were removed TO
Casualty Hospital in an ambulance.
Several physicians were summoned by
DR.. Gilchrist, who was formerly resident
physician of the hospital, and these with
the hospital stan worked for hours in
an attempt to save the life of the in
jured woman.
1t was thought from the first. however.
that she had inhaled the flames, which
leaped to her face soon after her dress
was ignited. and little hope was enter
tanned for her recovery.
Mrs. Gilchrist was twenty-three wears
old and had been married but a short
time.

Strenuous objections will be made by
committees representing the District OF

Der of Commerce at the hearings which
will be given this week by the House

amendment to House bill 1851, which de-
priyes nugants of the right to appeal
to the Supreme Court in any case ex-
cept one involving constitutional rights
AT the present time appeals may be made
to the Supreme Court of the United
States If the case involves more than
5000.
1t is claimed by the Senate committee
which offered the amendment that too
much of the time of the Supreme Court
is taken up with District cases which
do not warrant being taken before that
tribunal. The Washington committees
say that if the Senate bill becomes a
law the District of Columbia will be
worse of than other Territories, and even
the insular possessions.

PLANS UNDER WAY
FOR D. A. R. MEET
Committees Preparing for
Congress in April.

Preparations for the Continental Con-
gress OF the Daughters of the American
Revolution next April are going on apace
at Memorial Continental Hall. and Mrs
Matthew T. Scott, the president general
and the congressional committees, are
busily at work making the arrangements
for the event.
While this stress of necessary prepara-
ton IS under way the secret work OF
the campaign committees is being given
the final touches, of what promises to be
the most exciting and interesting d. =. r.
election in years.
or course, the main interest centers
around the candidates for president gen.
eral, the chief OF whom are Mrs Matthew
T. Scott, the incumbent, of Ill
inois, and Mrs. William Cumming Story.
honorary State regent OF New York, who
was defeated for the presidency by eight
votes two years ago.
There is some talk of Mrs. Scott re-
signing her place on the ticket TO Mrs.
Donald Mclean, former president gen.
eral, at the actual time OF the election,
but this rumor cannot be verified.
Then there is some tlak of splitting
the administration ticket by a nominal
third candidate for president general.
who at the propere time will withdraw
her name and throw her support to Mrs
Scott, who claims the unqualified sup
port Of fourteen States.
The situation in the District d. A. r.
appears, as usual to be somewhat
chaotic The District Daughters are al
ways to be found in the thick OF every
D. A. R. battle, and this year will be no
exception
An attempt will be made by the ad-
ministration to elect a vice president
general from the District. but Mrs.
George NJ Sternberg. the Story incum-
bent of that Office, is one of the most
popular members of the society, and
would not fail OF reelection If she runs
again.
AS usual. some freak legislation will
be proposed, and II Is understood that
the amendments to the constitution to
be considered will precipitate some lively
debates.
1t is also understood that the yearly
proposal to change the date of the con-
gress back to the week of February q,
instead of the week in which April 19
falls, will be made.
The objection to April is largely OF a
religious nature, for it either makes the
congress fall in Holy Week or Easter
Week, as this year, when it is awkward
for the delegates to leave their homes.
On the other hand, patriotic sentiment
finds much outlet in the associations of
George Washington's Birthday, but
Washington weather is a tickle friend to
even the good Daughters, and February
congresses have usually proven carnivals
of slush, sleet, and mud. The congress
is apt to meet in April. for a while at
least.
