ESCAPES WITH BROKEN ARM.
Colored Man Wins Two of Three
Heats in Race With Police

Dennis Coleman, colored played tag
with Policemen Grove and Moore of the
third precinct about o'clock this MORN
ing at his home, 241O H street northwest,
winning the first heat by jumping from
a second-story window, after an encoun-
ter with the policemen.
The second heat was won by the blue
coats. when they reached Coleman, after
his leap for liberty, and took him to the
Emergency Hospital for treatment for a
cut and bruised face and a broken arm.
But the third heat was won by the col
ored man, when he disappeared over the
snow-covered park near the hospital,
Policeman Billman recently obtained
warrant charging Coleman with disorder
ly assembly. He saw the cOlored man on
the street the next day, but the accused
was an easy winner in the foot race
search for the elusive Coleman by his
brother officers this morning.
Just at the hour of two the two blue
coats appeared at the HI street house.
Coleman was asleep.
The policemen thought they heard him
mutter, Caught at last" but the re-
mark was mere introduction to real
living doings. The colored man was only
partly dressed, when he suddenly un-
covered four or five solar plexus punches,
kangaroo kick and a series Of jiu jitsu
jabs. and then jumped through the open
window. He landed In a heap, receiving
Il broken arm and many cuts on his
head and face.
Fifteen minutes later Coleman was on
the operating table at the hospital.
Dress his head first suggested one
of the physicians, land he'll be ready to
go upstairs when the fracture is set.''
Colemans numerous injuries were
dressed, and he presented such battered
appearance that the physicians did not
even suspect that he would try to get
away, and the policeman on duty was not
summoned to look after him.
Il would like to go to the washroom,"
Coleman said, when the injuries to his
head had been dressed.
Just around the hallway" he was told,
one of the attendants pointing the way.
An open window in the washroom ex-
planned the delay In his return to the
emergency room. Now all the policemen
in the city have received an order to
look out for Coleman.

Measure Substituting Charter Bill.

Postal card notices of a mass meeting
to be held tonight in the library at Chevy
Chase have been mailed to every resident
and voter of the suburb and it is ex-
pected that the attendance will tax the
capacity of the hall.
The meeting, which will protest against
the action of Delegate A. j. Cummings
in substituting a tax levy measure for
the bill for charter for Chevy Chase,
will be called to order at o'clock this
evening. The committee of Chevy Chase
citizens who have had charge of the
charter bill, DR.. James Dudley Morgan,
chairman, is in charge of the meeting.
Besides being generally Objectionable
to many Chevy Chase residents, the tax
levy bill substituted by Delegate Cum
mings for the Incorporation measure, ex-
cludes the waterworks plants of Chevy
Chase from the tax limits of the SUBJ
urb, so that. in case this substitute bill
should become a law and should be en-
forced by the commissioners of Montgom-
cry county, Chevy Chase people would
have nothing whatever to say about the
control or management of their water
supply.
