HOTELS COOPERATE
IN RAISING FUND
Novel Way to Raise Money for the
Titanic Memorial.

The big hotel and restaurant proprietors
Of Washington have agreed to lend
aid to the project OF the Woman's ii
tanic" Memorial to create in the Ma
tional Capital a majestic arch to the
men who died to save women and chill
dren. Practically every big place or
public entertainment in the city Will dis
play tomorrow in their Hobbies and din
ing rooms a large poster designed Tor
the memorial by the famous artist.
Charles Dana Gibson. Packages or cou-
pons attached to the post Will furnish
Information about forwarding contribu-
lions to all who :,ause before the poster
attracted by .ne beauty of the drawing.
One of tie posters was hung yesterday
In a r.pular downtown restaurant Just
as the patrons of the cafe were assem-
bling for dinner. 1t attracted instant
.ttention, and the number OF coupons
taken by outgoing. diners proved the er-
fectiveness of the appeal Curiousiy
enough, the first three coupons torn from
the package were taken by men. Prac-
tically every woman in the dinlng-room
followed suit, however, and II all the
coupons taken result in contributions, q
considerable sum of money Will reach
the memorial as the result OF one even
ing's display OF a single poster.
As this plan OF Washington hotel men
is to be carried out in every city in the
United States, it Is probable that many
thousand dollars will be attracted to the
Titanic Memorial fund by just one or the
many expedients devised TO assist the
movement by women to honor the prav-
cry of men.

REDUCTIONS AFFECT
HEALTHSERVICE
DR.. Woodward Forced to Exercise
Rigid Economy Owing to Cut
in Appropriations.

. DR. William c. Woodward is being
taxed to his utmost ability to adjust the
workings of the Health Department fol
the same efficient service at a greatly re-
duced cost. Congress has made reduc'
tons in the appropriations for severa
branches of the service, which will make
necessary rigid economy and planning II
order to safeguard the public health
with the same watchfulness as hereto
fore.
Last year the Apr opriation for per
sonal services in the contagious-diseast
service of the department carried $4,000
1t has been reduced this year to 10000
DR.. Woodward has brought to the at
tention of the Commissioners the fact
that when the monthly payroll Of this
branch Of the service is subtracted from
the sum available, a monthly balance OF
only S195.S3 will remain, with which tc
fight a contagious disease epidemic
should one break out.
The reduced appropriation, DR.. Wood.
ward feels. is a serious handicap to the
work of the department, and he Is max.
ing every effort to solve the problem by
stringent economies and a redistribution
of some of the departmental duties

OF ROBBING FRIEND
Martin ]. Battle Charges Two
Men with Stealing Scarf Pin

factor. William Welsch. twenty-one years
old, and Michael Stout. twenty-six years
old. soldiers at Fort Myer, were arrested
yesterday by Detectives Cox and Berman
on charges of grand larceny and placed
in cells at the First Precinct Station
Martin ]. Battle, Waterman in the
War Department. charges that the SOL
diers robbed him of a scarf pin valued
at ssS5. According to Battle, he met the
men in the small hours Of Friday morn
ing. and invited them to spend the night
at his rooms at 1917 Pennsylvania Ave-
nue. Northwest.

cure a glass of water. and returned TO

WAR ON CANNES
FOLLOW SCARE
Hyattesville Citisens Plan to Rid
Town Of Stray Dogs As Result
Of Rabies.
PATIENTS ARE DOING WELL

As q result of the hydrophobia scare
in East Hyattsville. Nd. which has
caused thirteen persons to apply at the
Hygienic Laboratory Of tbs Public
Health and Marine Hospital Service.
Twenty-fifth and e Streets Northwest.
for the Pasteur treatment. 1t Is likely
that the authorities OF the little town
will wage a vigorous warfare on the nu-
rnerous dogs which are said to infest the
community.
DR.. Fred z. Davis. the Hyattsville vet
erinarian, who treated the rabid Rad
cliffe cow which caused all the turmoil,
said last night he intends to hold q con-
serence to-day or tomorrow with the
Mayor concerning the vast number of
stray CANNES in the town. The scene OF
the hydrophobia scare is in East Hyatts-
VILE, a short distance from the town
proper. and outside Of its corporate lin
it's. IT is consequently believed that the
town authorities will be unable to direct
the proposed crusade against the dogs of
the infested locality.
Town Has Dog Catcher.
Although conditions are much better
in Hyattsville proper, DR.. Davis 10 still OF
the opinion that there are far too many
stray dogs wandering around. The
town has a dog catcher in the person Of
the bailiff, but he receives no compen-
sation for his labors among the ca
mines, and, consequently, there is no
incentive for him to direct vigorous
campaign.
The dogs of the town are required un-
der the law to have tags, which are Is
sued annually.
Only twelve persons are now taking
the Pasteur treatment at the HYGIENE
Laboratory. Mrs. Reignier, who drank
the milk Of the rabid cow, and was one
of the first to visit the laboratory, yes
,erday did not appear for treatment. 1t
has not been learned definitely whether
she intends returning, but neighbors
said last night she had intimated she
would discontinue the treatment
No signs of rabies have appeared
among the patients at the laboratory.
DR.. Edward Francis, assistant director
of the laboratory, said yesterday that
the Hyattsville patients are taking the
treatment for the purpose Of immunizt.ig
them from the disease rather thai Tor
doctoring They will continue ri take
1t for two weeks.
