ALL ADJUSTMENTS
UNDER ONE BOARD,
PLAN OF MARTIN
Department of Recreation
! Favored by Supervisor
of Fairgrounds.

In the preparation of the next es-
Inmates consideration will be given by
the Commissioners to the recommended
ton of E. 8. Martin, Supervisor of
Fairgrounds, that a department of rec
reation be established which shall have
supervision of all amusements, includ-
ing dance halls, theaters, bowling al
leys. arcades, pool rooms, parks, and
other places frequented by the public.
The scheme of administration, which
provides for fhe appointment of a d.
rector of public recreation and three
supervisors. involves considerable ex-
penditures. 1t is recommended that two
of the supervisors shall give their entire
time aItd attention to playground work
parks, athletics, and the activities of
the Boy Scouts and Camp Fire Girls
while the third shall have supervision of
indoor amusements.
Among other recommendations of
Supervisor Martin which the Commits
sioners will consider are the estab-
lishment of a stadium for public gath
ertngs. the erection of a field house in
the interior park to be provided at
Willow Tree alley, that swimming
pools be provided at the large play
grounds, and that the Fairgrounds be
lighted SO as to permit of their use
by working boys and girls at night.
An appropriation for presenting NOV
ing pictures at the Fairgrounds twice
q week during the summer months
also is advocated.

WASHINGTON TIMES BUREAU,
ALEXANDRIA, VA, AUG. 2s


A pathetic case was heard in police
court today, when Mrs. Bette Swain,
slender and delicate little woman,
mother Of six children. the eldest OF
which is but twelve years Of age, con-
fronted her husband, Horace Swain, a
printer. well known both here and in
Washington.
The wife related how, after assaulting
her on September 15 last, Swain had
fed, leaving her alone to support the
children, which were on the point of
becoming public charges. She further
stated that of late years her husband
had contributed but little to the house,
hold needs. often sums ranging from IS
to 81 a week, from his salary of $3.50.
Swain made a highly dramatic appeal
in testifying. Judge, I was a coward,
and was afraid to face the charges, and
fed But for my wife's temper we
should have been an ideally happy
couple" He related how, after a quar-
rel with his wife. whom he described
as ''the best woman in the world" he
had walked to Richmond to secure en-
ployment, and later went to Philadel-
phia, where he had worked at odd
times, scarcely able to support himself,
until he decided to return to Alexan-
dria.
Several times during SWANS state
ment, which was a long one, his voice
broke and he wept.
You have been guilty of as onery a
procedure as 1t Is possible for a white
man." said Police Justice Cation. You
have fulfilled every requirement of the
state law which says a man guilty OF
abandonment shall be considered a
vagrant." A sentence of six months In
jail was imposed.

Mrs. Mamie B. Henry, the Hagerstown
woman, whose decomposed body was
found in her home a week ago today.

Sunday in Washington, has returned

, NO interview was given by Miss
Henry during her visit in Washingt ton
and the statements attributed to her
are all poppycock," declared the pros
ecutor today.
THE girl simply came to Washing
ton to get her trunk, which contained
wearing apparel and personal effects.
While here she talked with me about
a few little matters, and cleared up
| a number of minor details.
| Secrecy was exercised because the
poor girl has been bounded to death.

any sem alliance OF a statement to any
one"
1t Is said by the prosecutor that Miss

The case Of Joseph Hayman, accused
OF exceeding the speed limit in an au-

due to a wide variance In the testi-

the arrest, and that of Hayman. The
officer testified that Hayman made the
square on North Washington street, be-
tween Oronoko and Pendleton, in a
space of three seconds. while the lat
ter testified that his speedometer
showed Just twelve miles an hour. II
was roughly estimated that II Reid s
time was correct, the square was

Instinct In Birds.

In the stormy part of the year a

and, as often happens at such times
many sea gulls lowered near the ship
and even came on board. One allowed
itself to be caught. and 1t was found
that it had fish bone stuck in the eye
In such q position as not absolutely to
destroy the sight, but penetrating an
inch into the flesh Of the bird and pro-
tecting an inch and a half. 1t might
have had a fight with a fish or got
transtixed seeking its prey. The doc
tor Of the ship took the bird, extracted
the bone. applied soothing remedy to
the wound and let it go. 1t flew away,
but returned the next day, allowing IT.
self to be caught. The doctor exam.
lned the wound. which was progressing
favorably, applied more of the remedy
and let the bird go a second time. 1t
flew several times around the ship and
then departed and returned no more

Prince NapoIeon's Prophecy.

Prince Napoleon in 1870 was some
thing of a prophet. When he heard of
the emperor's declaration Of war he
hurried to st. Cloud and had stormy
interview with the emperor He didn't
hesitate TO say. 1T is the emperor who
has brought this upon u.s." and the
emperor, while offended at his frank
ness. admitted that your PRESENT.
ments perhaps correspond with mine. "
Then the prince fired his last shot and
showed that. though he might go
astray in many things. he knew of the
weakness Of France and the strength
Of Germany. He turned on his heel
and, with that bitterness which he
didn't hesitate to exhibit when occa-
sion required. said: $50 be 1t; so be it.
Let us, however. make haste to pack
our possessions, for we are already
beaten" And so the result proved.
