James II. Rittenhouse, a civil engineer
and mining expert OF Scranton, Pa. and
who was employed by Wrisley Brown,
special Investigator Of the Department Of
Justice, to survey the culm bank and re-
port TO him OF its value, has testified that
the share owned by the Hillside Coal and
Iron Company, for which Archibald and
his associates were to pay $500, was
worth 1850. Witnesses called by the de-
fense yesterday swore that in their Opin-
ion the bank was not worth $1,000.
In view of the circumstances surround
Ing the employment of Rittenhouse his
testimony is likely to stand. regardless of
the opinion of witnesses introduced by the
defense. When RittenhOuse accepted the
commission to survey the dump for Wris-

Browns connection with the Department
OF Justice, nor did he learn OF II until
after his final report had been sealed and

Senator Burton OF Ohio introduced a

Under a special order adopted last ses-
sion, the Senate considered the Kenyon

from wet" territory into dry terri
tory. Senator Sanders Of Tennessee and
Senator McCumber Of North Dakota
spoke in favor OF the measure.
The introduction of testimony on be-
half Of the respondent in the Archibald
impeachment case was begun. The char
acter Of the evidence was an effort to
show that the Katydid culm dump, upon
which Archibald is charged with having
obtained an option for himself and z.
J. Williams through the exercise OF his
official influence. was practically worth
less.
The House considered private bills on
the unanimous consent calendar. Among
the measures passed was the Senate bill

FORAKER MAY QUIZ
mr.. HEARST TO-DAY
Editor Will Testify Before clapp
Campaign Probers Regarding
Standard Oil Letters.

When William r. Heart takes the stand
before the Clapp Campaign investigating
Committee, former Senator Foraker will
be present and may have something to
say.
Senator Foraker has been ready to
appear before the committee ever since
election, but it is understood that he
has been advised by some of his friends
to wait until Mr.. Hearst gives his YER
sion Of how he came into possession OF
the Standard on letters which passed
between John-D. Archbold and Senator
Foraker.
Thus far, during the long drawn-out
hearings, the committee has never been
able to bring out anything definite in
regard to just how Mr.. Hearst acquired
the letters. Mr.. Achbold, in his testi-
mony, said that he believed his private
desk was rifled and also the correspon-
dence files of his Office had been pIIlaged
but he never took any legal action in
the matter. 1t is probable that Senator
Foraker may request the privilege Of
asking Mr. Hearst a few questions.
Others on the list of witnesses are
Victor Rosewater. Of Omaha: Gen.
Charles II. Grosvenor and Former Sena-
tor Joseph b. Foraker OF Ohio, and w.
NJ. WOOD. Of Boston, the head Of the
Wool Trust.

BRADLEY HILLS SETS PACE

generation or two ago living in the
country, or even in the suburbs Of our
cities, was quite different from what it is
to-day. Our fathers and mothers endured
many prlvations. There was no plumbing
in the houses, no heating plants to heat
every room and hallway, no telephone to
communicate with your friends or sum-
mon the doctor, no electric lights or other
means Of Illumination except the tallow
candle and the oil lamp, no mail twice a
day, brought to your door, and il one had
occasion to go TO town to shop, or for
any other purpose, it took the best part
of the day, with the bay mare and the
blackboard"
These conditions have all been changed,
as every one familiar with modern ways
of living knows. and the tendency among
the better class OF people now is to for
sake the crowded, congested city at the
end Of the day and dwell closer TO nature
among the trees and birds.
The electric railway and the automobile,
with good roads, annihilate the distance
between town and ones country home.
These modern vehicles bring the city to
the country and permit our once country
cousins to enjoy all the conveniences and
amusements of the city, and at the same
time to revel in the charms of country
life.
Bradley Hills is eclipsing all records in
rural improvements and development. Sit
uated as it is on high, rolling ground.
overlooking Washington, and Convenient
to the Capital City both by beautiful roads
and an electric line to be completed in the
early spring, Bradley Hills offers the
choicest sites for real homes to be found
anywhere in America or any other coun-
try.
Several million feet Of ground has been
sold in Bradley Hills during the past few
months, and there is no let-up on account
of the cold weather. Practically every
day a name or two has been added to the
Hills.
The Real Estate Trust Company, with
general offices at 14I4 Street, are ex-
elusive agents for Bradley Hills property.

AWARDED MEDAL OF HONOR.
Georgian Commc nded for RescuIng
Two Girls from Surf.

Secretary of the Treasury MacVeagh
has awarded a gold medal of honor to
Joseph f. CampOs, jr., of SIS Tatnall
Street, Savannah, Ga, for his heroic
action in rescuing Misses Elsie and Jose
phine RobIder from drowning in the surf
at Tybes Island. Ga, last August.
The two girls were in bathing when
Josephine, thirteen years old, ventured
out too far and in attempting to swim
back against the strong undertow became
exhausted and cried for help. Her sis
ter. who was seventeen, went to her as
sistance, but soon became weakened and
both girls were in immediate danger of
drowning. The younger was unconscious.
Campos, who was at dinner in his cot
tage, heard cries from people on the
beach.
After running more than 800 yards he
plunged into the surf. only stopping to
take off his shoes and swan toward the
girls. After swimming a considerable
distance he succeeded in reaching them
and started toward shore. His fight
against the ebb tide was hard and when
he finally brought his charges near
enough shore for others on the beach to
venture out in the surf and assist him,
Campos fell exhausted.
