Come here, isn't this a beautiful win

Greever had gotten lost in the crowd and
would find her way home. Mrs. Ryan,
on her arrival home, waited for her guest.
When the latter did not put in an appear
ance after several hours, Mrs, Ryan no

FOUR now HELD
In MURDER PROBE
Police Believe They Are Near So
luton of Who Killed Sam
Hing in His Laundry.

With four suspects under arrest, all of
whom tell conflicting stories as to their
movements on the night of the crime, the
police believe they are near the solu-
ton of the mystery Surrounding the mur-
der of Sam Hing, who was done to death
in his little laundry, SOS4 Fourteenth
street northwest, last Tuesday night.
Following close on the rearrest yes
terday of "CurIy" Butler and william
Wilson, the two colored men first taken
into custody as suspects on the testI-
mony Of two colored women who de-
clared they saw the men enter the Iaun-
dry a short time before the dying Orien-
tai vas found, the police last night ar
rested Annie Dade. the washerwoman
employed by the victim, and her hus-
hand. Randy Dade. The couple were ar
rested at their home in FitZmorris court
northwest.
On being interrogated at the Tenth pre-
cinct station the Dades told several
stories as 10 where they spent Tuesday
night. The woman said she was with
another Colored girl the night of the
crime, while Dsde declared he spent the
night at home. Examination Of the COL
ored girl with whom the Dade woman
said she spent the hours in which the
murder was committed brought a denial
that the two women were in each others
company at any time Tuesday night
Both Butler and Wilson held to their
previous statements that they did not
enter the laundry and knew nothing of
the murder of the Chinaman. Interro-
CATION by the police, however, brought
TO light certain discrepancies in their
statements which caused their detention
on charges OF investigation"
The police are also looking for John
InhnEnn fNran
old, who is wanted as an important wit
ness.

PUPILS PARENTS
In CENTRAL BODY
School Associations Will Be Merged
for the Welfare of Child
and Teacher.

Having for its object the combining Of
all the separate parent-teachers' asso-
Citations OF the District public schools, a
movement was launched yesterday after
noon at a meeting at the Cairo by Mrs.
Fred T. Dubois, national vice president
OF the National Congress OF Mothers The
meeting was attended by the superTis-
ing principals Of public schools.
At present there are several hundred
parent-teacher associations The object
OF the associations Is TO have the parents
meet the teachers to discuss the welfare
OF the pupils The proposed merging of
these associations into a central body
will mean that nearly every mother,
whose child or children attend school.
viii become a member, making II one Of
the most representative bodies in the
District.
1t was decided to enlist the aid Of the
Washington clergy in the movement, and
an invitation will be sent to every min
lister to attend a mass meeting in the
near future. The principal objects OF the
proposed organization will be TO stop
truancy, the smoking OF cigarettes by
boys, and to make the schoolhouse a
Bocisl center for the neighborhood.
In connection with the elimination OF
truancy It was shown that during the
school term Of I9II-1s12 there were only
here. The school principals present said
that this record was one of the best
IN the country. 1t was stated that the
smoking Of cigarettes could be easily
stopped II the dealers would lend their
aid.
In connection with making the school
house the social center Of the neighbor-
hood, Mrs. Dubois said she would en-
deavor to have a bill enacted in Con-
gress granting the use OF school build
ings at night for dancing and other in
nocent pastimes
Mrs. Charles Giles Scott Rafter. a MEM
ber Of the National Congress of Mothers,
will direct the merger. Among those
who addressed the meeting yesterday

sion.

LOWER LYING COST
FOR THE MILITARY
Army and Navy Men Will Run
Chain Of Cooperative
Stores.

While no definite decision has been
reached, It is expected that the Army
and Navy Cooperative Company. of
which Maj. Henry Leonard. U. S. NJ. C..
OF s26 D street southeast, IS a director,
will open a Washington branch within
few months.
The company was Incorporated under
the laws OF the State of New York on
Saturday, a number Of army and navy
officers being named as directors. As
explained by Maj. Leonard yesterday,
the corporation will control a system OF
stores in various parts OF the country,
the principal ONCE being at Newburgh,
N. Y.
The plan OF the company is to oper-
ate In the same manner In which the
army and navy stores in London are
operated" said Mai. Leonard yesterday.
The card system is in vogue there, and
no one can buy anything in the stores
unless they are in the service and have
cards granting them permission to pur-
chase. The company will conduct a gen.
eral mercantile and manufacturing busi-
ness. While II has not been decided when
We will enter the Washington fieId, II
Is probable that a store will be estab-
lished in this city before very long We
will open our first store in New York
shortly and try the plan out there"
Besides being a director in the COM
pany, Maj. Leonard will look out for
its legal affairs in the District OF Co
lumbia.
I'VE intend to operate on a big SCALE
declared Maj. Leonard, "and If we are
successful we are confident that the COM
pany will accomplish much toward re-
ducing the cost Of living. as we will sell
at the lowest remunerative price"
A meeting Of the directors will soon be
held in New York to elect officers and
to get the wheels OF organization In mo-
tion. A number OF civilians and finan-
ciers are directors in the company, to-
gether with army and navy officers.
