TO ANACOSTIA BY FERRY
PROPOSED BY CITIZENS
Plan for Establishing Service Across
Eastern Branch at South
Capitol Street.

Plans for establishing a ferry across
the Eastern branch were discussed by
citizens Of southeast Washington. Ana
costa and Congress Heights at a meet
ing held last night in Donohoe's Hall. 3l4
Pennsylvania avenue southeast.
1t is proposed that the ferry be oper-
ated from the foot Of South Capitol
street to the opposite shore. near the
grounds of the Government Hospital for
the Insane. Application has been made
to the War Department for permission to
operate such a service and the unomcial
approval Of the department has already
been given the proposition. Before the
project can be officially Endorsed, the pro-
motors must file with the War Depart
ment maps showing the exact location Of
all landings and the line of the ferry
service.
Stock Company Proposed.
In order to operate the ferry it is pro-
posed to organize a stock company The
ferry is not intended as a money-making
scheme, however.
j. H. Adriaans, who is directing the
movement, stated that the real reason
for wanting to establish a ferry service
was to demonstrate to Congress the
need of a suitable bridge near the pro-
posed ferry route. He stated that the
ferry service would be discontinued
upon the construction of q bridge.
Representative Smith of Maryland has
introduced in the House a bill prOvid-
ing for the construction of a bridge.
No action can be secured on the bill un-
til the regular session of Congress-
Those interested in the building of the
bridge propose in the meantime to con-
vince Congress of it's necessity.
A bridge will save the residents of
Anacostia and Congress Heights who
work in Washington about twenty-five
in getting to and from their
work, it is declared.

TWO FIRE ALARMS SOUNDED.
Sheds in Rear of As and AZ Ivy
Street Southeast Ablaze.

Fire in sheds in rear of As and Al
Ivy street southeast shortly before 4
o'clock this morning prompted the
sounding of two alarms of fire. About
$50 damage was done. The police were
unable to determine the origin of the
fire.
A pan of grease on the stove in the
apartment of Charles Hendricks 233
18th place northeast last night became
overheated and started fire. Firemen
responded to an alarm. but the fire was
extinguished before they reached the
apartment. No damage resulted.
Policeman May yesterday extin-
guished a fire in front of 736 18th street
northwest. The awning caught fire
in some unknown way and the fire de-
partment was called upon for assist
ance but the policeman managed to
extinguish the blaze before the arrival
of the firemen. The damage was about
$40.

PLUCKY GIRL CASHIER
FOILS HOLD-UP MAN
Miss Katherine O'Connor, Facing
Robbers Revolver, Protects Co
lumbia Loan Company's Cash.

John A. Balm manager of the Columbia
Loan Company. 6l3 + street northwest.
has told the police of a sensational at
tempt having been made to rob the COM
pany's Office about noon yesterday. The
would-be robber, he stated, drew re-
volver. pointed it at Miss Katherine OCon-
nor, who was acting as cashier during
the absence of the regular cashier, and
demanded money.
Miss OConnor had presence of mind
enough to close the cash drawer, which
contained a small sum of money. As
soon as she had protected her employer 8
cash she made an outcry. Detective Mes
ser was told and the intruder hastily
retreated.
Mr. Balm was undecided about report
ing the incident to the police. he stated.
but last night he concluded that the af-
fair should be investigated, and told De-
tective Messer what he had been told
about it.

An Example Cited.

1t was from situation akin to that
which would be created by the Thorn
son bill which led TO the electrification
Of the New York. New Haven and Hart
ford railroad between New York city
and Stamford. Conn. and the present
proposal to extend the electric system
as far as New Haven. and perhaps uiti-
mately throughout the whole system. In
1903 law was enacted requiring all
tute electricity for steam inside the city
within five years. The New York. New
Haven and Hartford did more than COM
ply with the letter of the law. discard
ing steam for distance or twenty-five
miles.

Threatens to Use Gun.

1t appears that a young man entered
the Office while the manager was at
lunch. and asked to see him. He was
told by the cashier that Mr.. Balm was
out, and he then made demand for the
money, drawing a pistol and threatening
to use it If the young woman made an
cutlery.
When Miss O'Connor closed the cash
drawer the clicking of the lock made 1t
apparent that the money could not be
easily obtained. and the gunman probably
was afraid to wait long enough to make
an attempt to open it. fearing the young
woman's outcry would attract attention
and might mean his capture. Miss O'Con-
nor furnished a description Of the young
man.

MOTOR POWER
SUBSTITUTE FOR STEAM
Pending Legislation May Lead
to Change Between Wash
Angton and Baltimore.

Electrifcation of all railroads between
here and Baltimore probably would re-
suit il the Thomson bill, introduced yes
terday afternoon in the House. is en-
acted. AS explained. that bill requires
simply that no railroads be allowed the
use of steam locomotives within the Dis
trict Of Columbia, and that trains ap-
preaching the city must discard loco
motives before reaching a point twenty
miles beyond the District line.
In the case of trains running between
here and Baltimore that would mean
electrifying the roads for one-half the
distance, which would undoubtedly lead
the companies to consideration of cleo
IRRIGATION for the entire stretch of forty
miles.

81 think / shall have to tell you about Boy Antony and his daddys hand
kerchtef." said daddy % " eE@4gAF# "
Antony was called Boy because there were two other Antonys in his
family. These were Grandpa Antony and Daddy Antony.
Being quite small Boy Antonys handkerchiefs were also small. For a
little chap with a small nose they were quite large enough. But oh, how Boy
Antony did envy his father the splendid big 'hankes' which he used!
why can't I have hankchifs like daddys? Boy Antony would ask his
mother .##E5 &@t
Because little boys do not need large handkerchiefs' she would reply.
Sometimes when Boy Antony had used all his own clean handkerchiefs,
which was generally only when he had a bad cold, his father would loan him
some of his large ones. Boy Antony had been told he might borrow when In
need. Sometimes he went back to the drawer s o often that when, his daddy
went looking for a handkerchief there would be none there. aI
Then Boy Antonys daddy would say very ferceL, Who has been taking
my handkerchiefs! And Boy Antony would answer, why, i just borrowed
a few His daddy would pretend to be very, very cross and chase Boy An
tony all over the house. &H4 Hit" a#r a*#t
This was fun for Boy Antony, for he would generally end by Offering to
loan his daddy some OF his own little handkerchbefs. and his daddy would
laugh and take them and go to the store with a piece OF the gay border stick,
ing out of his coat pocket = &@1N-$EN ~
"one day Boy Antony thought he would play a joke on his daddy There

his father rushed at him aud began chasing him, but Boy Antony laughed SO
hard that his daddy soon caught him. I. ! - HIN
