FARM JUDGES APPOINTED
Children's Gardens At School Farm
To Be Judged By Committee
" Appointed =.
MANY RANKING CLOSE FIRST


Tomorrow afternoon, at two o'cick
special committee composed of DR..
E. H. Smith, Mr.. K. X. Roe, Supt w.
P. Dyer, A. P. Richie and Mr.. E.. H.
Winter will judge the gardens at the
School Farm. The gardens are being
judged each week by Mr.. Gle, but he
desires to have the opinion of the
above committee in addition. The re-
suits of this committees work will
count about one-half in determining
the prize winners when the final rec
koning is made. This committee has
consented to judge the gardens at
one or two later dates also. These
dates will be announced later.
When speaking of the work done
by the students who have shown
enough interest along agriculture
work that they have been awarded
gardens Mr.. Gile said,
els has been necessary to take one
or two OF the garden away from some
children and give them to some one
else as they refused to be present at
rool call and to keep their gardens
clean. AS a whole we have splen-
did bunch of workers now. Many Of
them have the second crop of peas,
radishes and lettuce coming on now.
1t would be impossible to say who
will get first prize now as many of
them are very close" ,,

SUFFRAGE ARMY
AT WASHINGTON
Votes For Women" Delegates Invade
The Senate Petitions Are
Presented
SUFFRAGISTS CROWD GALLERIES
Supporters On The Floor Make Brief
Speeches Endorsing The
Cause

Washington. Aug. 1.-"Votes for wo-
men" was demanded by delegations
of suffragsts from every state in the
Union who besieged the senate cham.
Der and bombarded senators with pc.
titions urging consideration Of a wo-
man suffrage constitutional amend.
ment.
The siege of the senate followed a
demonstration in the course of which
hundreds of women paraded from
Hyattsville, Md, through the country
roads and the. city streets, down Penn
sylvania avenue and through the Capt..
tol grounds.
At the Capitol the parade disbanded
and cloud Of femininity fluttered into
the senate wing. The dignified hush
was shattered by the demands Of wo.
men that their cards be taken to their
senators.
After the petitions had been pre-
sented the delegations flocked to the
galleries, where seats had been re-
served and the woman suffrage sup
porters on the floor Of the senate took
charge of the demonstration. Senators
Owen, Ashurst, Poindexter, Jones.
Works, Lane. Smoot, Clapp, Thomas,
Shafroth- and Hollis made brief ad-
dresses endorsing the petitions.
Owen Official Speaker.
Senator Owen officially presented
the petitions to the senate.
The reasons for this request on the
part of the women of the country"
he said, ARE overwhelming and I'M
answerable and the time has come
when they must be considered with
dignity, with unbiased mind. free from
prejudice or passion. in the interest
OF the welfare Of the human race.
II do not appeal to men from a par.
ty standpoint or call their attention to
the effect which may follow If either
one of the great parties should insult
the 100000 women who now have
the full suffrage in America by con-
temptuously denying a right so OBJ
viously just, but l will remind you
that great party with high ideals,
casting over 100000 votes last year,
declared for women suffrage and the
question can no longer be ignored"
At night the suffragists continued
their demonstration at a banquet at
tended by members of the house and
senate.

Tavenner Compares Present Admin
I istration With That of Cleveland's
g.. Time IT, ,-~@>a'@
TARIFF AND CURRENCY UP
Republicans Are Now Criticising The
Numerous Democratic 1nvesti-
cations Made

BY Congressman Clyde H. Tavenner.
Washington August, Twill the
history of the second Cleveland ad-
ministration repeat itself in the pre-
sent administration? Will the Wall
Street banks by conspiring to beat
down the value of the two per cent
government bonds succeed in block
Ing the currency legislation, Just as
they are charged with having con-
spired in 1898 to have their wav
about the repeal of the Sherman sill
yer law? '~- II,
Certainly there is stricking simil-
arlty OF events in the present admin
istraton and it's Democratic predeces-
sor, the Cleveland administration
which begun on March 4, 1899
Then, as now, the two greatest is
sues confronting the new President
were tariff and currency. Then, as
now, the special interests swarmed
down upon Washington to defeat the
Will Of the people. In 1893 the spec
lal interests were successful? viii
they be in 1913? ~~..-. .-.&
On the tariff the question seems
to be already answered. The keen
sighted and courageous position IA
ken by President Wilson toward the
tariff lobby completely clipped the
claws OF that dangerous influence.
and there now seems to be little
doubt that the tariff bill which win
be passed will express the Presidents
ideas on this important subject. y
But is the administration now nre.
pairing to profit by the experience of
the Cleveland administration with
respect to currency legislation?
1t is charged and believed by .such
Democrats as Senator Thomas, of
Colorado, that the New York banks
conspired by depressing
securities and creating money
str1ngency to cause financial
crisis which would "tea ch" the
people by !"an object lesson that the
Sherman silver law must be repealed.
The times soon became so distressing
that special session of Congress
was convened and the Sherman law
repealed in, few days.
The charge of Secretary McAdoo
that the banks are again conspiring
against the Presidents currency pro-
gram by depressing the value of &C.
cording bonds thus has familiar
sound. The evident intention is, posi-
ton to the currency bill by convin-
cling them that the measure will in
jure these bonds and cause losses
to the banks.
But even as President Wilson has
routed the tariff lobby, he can pre-
vent any such conspiracy from being
successful. Chairman Robert l..
Henry, of Texas, has pointed out the
way. IT.. H. .-.,
Have the Banking Committee in
vestlgate, urges Mr.. Henry. Call the
New York bankers as witnesses and
grill them thoroughly so that the
people may know the facts.
1t is to be hoped that the House
Will take this action. Many Repub-
llcans are criticising the number Of
Democratic investigations. Had there
been tariff and banking investiga-
lions in 1893 different legislative
story might have been told. And pre-
sent day investigations may yet in
sure the passage of the administr.-
tons most important measures.

It is believed in Washington that
the attitude Of the administration to-
ward Mexico is based upon reports
which are the result of secret investi-
cations made by confidential represen.
tatives of the United States govern
ment. One of these agents was
Resinaldo Francisco Del Vale, who
reported direct to the secretary of
state. Since that report was received
1t has been noticed that both Pfesi-
dent Wilson and Mr.. Bryan have ap-
peared to be stronger in their deter
mination. to not recognize the Huerta

ROCK CREEK BRIDGE
BIDS TO BE REOPENED
Contractors for Work on Structure
Ask Excessive Amount to Garry
Out Specifications.

Bids upon new plans and specifications
for the construction OF the $275.O00 con-
crete bridge over Rock Creek at o Street
have again been called for by the Com
missioners- 1t is hoped TO begin work
on the structure not later than Deem
Der Is. The work will require year and
a half
There have been many difficulties en-
countered in getting the project under
way. These began with the condemna-
ton proceedings, and the last delay was
caused by the fact that the lowest bid
submitted upon the first advertised speci-
fications was in excess Of the amount
available for the work.
The amount available for the structure
itself is $4,000, the rest of the appro-
priation being required for the cost of
the approaches and decoration. The new
specifications call for a concrete bridge
of five spans. which. il is believed, will
come within the amount allowed by the
appropriation. The bids will be opened
October q
The new drawings were prepared under
the direction of Engineer OF Bridges D.
L. McComb and Glenn Brown. super
visory architect. W. A. Draper, as
sistant engineer of bridges, will have
charge OF the construction.

CONFERENCE ON SCHOOL
FUNDS is CONTINUED
Commissioners and Board of Educa-
lion officials Working on
Estimates.
ss,5OO,OOO MAY BE REQUESTED

Work OF apportioning the amount to be
asked in the next estimate for public
schools probably VIII be finished at the
conclusion of the conference to be held
tomorrow between the Commissioners and
DIR. William NJ. Davidson, Henry p. Blair,
Ernest l.. Daniel, and Mrs. Susan r.
Rhodes, members of the ways and means
committee OF the Board of Education.
The task was begun yesterday and occu-
pied an all-day session.
Although the Commissioners have hopes
of completing this part OF their estimates
on Wednesday, the work may call for
still further conferences. 1t is under
stood that the total amount to be asked
for the schools for the fiscal year ending
June 30, 1915, is to be between $780, 900
and S3,5O0.000.
The question of providing the tubercu-
lous children with open-air school facili-
ties, II is understood, was not reached
by the conferees yesterday. This will
probably be taken up at the meeting to-
morrow.
Amounts to be asked of Congress, in
addition to the initial appropriations
made last year, for the construction OF
the new Central High School and the
NJ Street Colored High School will have
TO be decided upon, as will many recon-
mendations for the construction Of new
buildings.
1t is regarded as practically certain
that the Commissioners will ask. pro-
vision of Congress for the children ex-
cluded from the schools under their re-
cent ruling on tuberculosis in communi-
cable form Another question that will
come up for consideration is that of the
proposal to educate the blind children in
the public schools At present the appro-
priation to educate the blind is made as
a charity and the children are sent to
an institution in Baltimore The Com
missioners are now investigating the
feasibility of placing these children in
the public schools.

THE ARTISTIC AMERICAN GIRL.
She Is InnntcIy Appreciative of Es-
thetic Decoration.

1t is generally conceded by everyone
who visits our country that there is no
possible doubt as to the high artistic
temperament of our American women.
They furnish abundant evidence of their
correct conceptions of the beautiful in
their homes, their dress and their unan-
irnous ambition for refined accomplish
ments. As a needlewoman in fancy work
of ali kinds the American girl has no
superiors in any part of the world, and.
Furthermore, she never allows herself to
lag in the rear of the procession. but in
sists on keeping up-to-date and up-to-
the-minUte in all ideas and qualifications
that go to adorn her person or her home.
This fact has been singularly exemplified
since The Herald began its Grand Dis
tribution of Imperial Patterns for beau
tiful embroidery. Thousands Of ladies.
thousands of mothers, thousands of
housewives, thousands of girls, have prac-
tically manifested their interest in the
proposition by personal application and
by mail, all determined to take advan-
tage Of the unprecedented offer of our SIC
worth of designs for IS cents, and six
coupons. This universal demand on the
rart of women readers of The Herald for
the most stylish embroidery patterns
abundantly proves that cultivated taste
and artistic nature of the genuine Ameri-
can woman.
