Washington. d. c.. Dec. 6.-The
White House is threatened with de-
struction by fire according to disclo-

The commissioners of the District of

LURE OF SHACK" LIFE.
Has Caused Much Trouble and Two
Youthful Devotees Are Missing.

To the trials and tribulations of Of
fcers at police headquarters has been
added an epidemic of ''shack" building
among youngsters around the city which
is said to be responsible for all kinds
of mischief and misdemeanor. The
4 lure OF shack life has marked tendency
| to fluctuations in school attendance, but
the evil of it does not always end with
truancy, For a year or more, the prae-
tice OF stealing boards and erecting the
small structures known to the boy
world as "shacks." has been source
Of annoyance to police officers as well
as lumber owners and Others 1t il
within twelve month that a gang of
youngsters were convicted of larceny
in city court for purloining lumber at
the south end and at that time the au-
thorities belived they had sounded suf-
fcient warning to others contemplating
such thefts
The lesson seems to have miscarried,
however, and police headquarters Is dai-
" besieged with complaints from peo-
pie who claim that shack tenants sally
forth from their rendezvous and commit
depredations in certain neighborhods.
The latest violation of the truancy law
is the climax to series of mis1emean-
ors, the officers maintain. Two boys
who belong to shack club near the
Mari \ Gordon polishing mill at the
south-end have not only given the school
house a wide berth but are believed to
be leading a kind of bandit life some
where ON the outskirts of the city A
third lad who belonged to the same
shack has been taken into custody by
the officers and diligent efforts have
been made to round up the Others. For |
three days, the missing pair have been |
away from home and all attempts to |
apprehend them have been futile. One |
Of the lads parents went so far as to |
investigate the shack and things he /
found there are said to have led him
to fire the little structure. 1t need
not be said that severe punishment viii
be dealt out to the offenders once they
ire caught.
Just what the status of the shack
5 with relation to the city ordinance is
lard to say. The building Inspector
las ruled that they are buildings with
n the meaning of the ordinance and he
ubmits that their construction without
building permit issued through the
egular channels is a plain violation. In
cctions where the actions Of shack ten
nts have become unbearable. men from

title structures TO the ground, although
