ment that the reelection of Colonel

developed to their highest effectiveness.
Mr.. Cowell will clearly describe, with

DISTRICTS COUNSEL
FILES APPEAL IN
HOTEL GRANDCASE
Corporation Attorney Ex-
poets Heavier Penalty for
Selling to Minors.

Desirous of an Interpretation Of the
statute governing the sale and dispen-
sation of liquors to minors in the Dis
trict, whereby Edward ]. Gardiner, pro-
p~ietor Of the Hotel Grand, recently
convicted Of dispensing intoxicants to
eighteen-year-old Lillian Sears, and
fined but SIS, can be more severely
punished. Corporation Counsel Thomas
has filed the papers in the case for
an appeal, asking that the ruling and
sentence of the lower court be set
aside.
Associate Justice Robb, of the District
Court of Appeals, will examine the
papers and decide whether the evidence
and ruling in the case warrants the
granting of an appeal to the prosecu-
ton. The outcome of the case hinges
on the Interpretation which Justice Robb
will place on the words SELL and dis
pense."
MIR. Justice Robb is at present spend
ing his vacation at Falmouth Mass. 1t
will probably be several weeks before
the juHst will have sufficiently gone
into the case to give his opinion as to
whether the District is entitled to an
appeal In event he decides against the
hotel keeper, argument for an appeal
will be made before the full court. 1t
will probably be several months then
before the outcome of the case will be
known.

New Dancing Styles Are
Seen at Chevy Chase Lake

Just how many new variations of the
Boston" and other formal dances,
Washingtonians have learned during
their visits to the watering places Of
the North and abroad, can be seen
nightly, even during the present warm
spell at Chevy Chase Lake.
Acknowledged by the dancing element
as an ideal place. to which is also
coupled ideal dance music, the pavilion
at the lake is the destination of every
young person who returns to the city
from vacation places with knowledge
of this or that new mode of dancing.
Throughout the season the manage
ment has strictly enforced the rule
against the dancing of freak steps,
such as the Turkey Trot," the Bunny
Hug" and other similar gyrauons. In
consequence of the precaution the lake
is patronized by a refined class of peo-
pie and steadily grows in it's popularttH.
The enthusiasm of the dancers is not
marred In the least by the warm spell
and repeatedly throughout the evenings
the Marine Band is called upon to re-

Self-Confessed Moonshiner "
Wants To Ride Back
To Georgia.

II didn't walk to Washington, and
I'm not going to walk back home, but
I'm going to let the Government pay
the fare back said Arnold A. Bay
lock, a self-confessed "moonshiner,"
who surrendered himself to the Wash

According to the prisoners story, he
had been making "moonshine" whisky
at his home near GAINESVILLE. White
county, Ca, and the revenue officers
were on his trail.
About two weeks ago. he said. the
revenue offers raided his still. but he
escaped. After tramplng cross country

mountains. he came 10 a railroad sta

THEN TELLSPOL|CE
OF BOLD HOLD-UP
Wanted Money, But Feared
Telling Mother How
/, He Got Ii.

From the deathlike silence that over
hangs the marshes of the Eastern
branch of the Potomac just before
Dawn there came early today shrieks
of "Help!" "Murder!' "Policer' Or
dinarily, such cries would have been
carried away by the breeze unheard,
but it happened this morning that the
wind was not blowing. 1t also hap
pened that just at the psychological
moment George Washington and Sam
Butler were walking along the Ben
ming road on their way home.
The two men stopped and listened
There was no mistaking what they
had heard. The screams were coming
from beneath the culvert near the col
,ored school house. Washington and
Butler started to make an investiga-
tion.. They walked to the edge of the
embankment, where they could hear
some one groaning. They made their
way down the embankment and under
the culvert they found Lorin Buck,
eighteen years old, of Capital Heights,
Md, lying on the ground, bound hand
and foot. They took off the bandages
which held his arms and hands. and
then notified the police of the Ninth
precinct.
A remarkable story Of how he had
been held up, assaulted, and robbed of
a silver watch was told by Buck. The
police sent him to the Casualty Hos
pital, where the physicians failed to
find any signs of the youth having been
roughly handled. Then the police de-
cided to investigate his story.
From the hospital Buck was taken to
the station-house and questioned. He
failed to remember any of the details
of the hold-up, except that he had been
attacked on his way home.
Finally the police say, the boy broke
down and admitted that the story he
had told was without foundation Of fact.
He told the police. they assert. that he
had pawned his watch earlier in the day
for $3.50 to get money to go to the the
ater last night. On the way home he
was afraid to face his mother without
his watch he told the police, and
thought that he could fix things up all
right by saying he had been robbed.
So he took some pieces of cloth, tied
his hands and feet, and when he saw
the two men coming lay down and
yelled for help.
