1t is rumOred that Ed Justice and
Bob Glenn are both out after Sena-
tor Overman's goat.
There was certainly something
doing" at Webster last Saturday at
the County Commencement. Super
tendent Brown is to be congratulate
ed on the success of the first Jack
son County Commencement. And
the teachers, whose schools were
represented have every reason to
be proud of the showing made by
the children. Every one did re-
markedly we'll and there is reason
to believe that the next county
commencement will be all that has
been expected. Last, but by no
means least, the success of the first
venture is due to the good women
of Webster, who prepared and serv-
ed dinner fit for a king.
Mr.. G. M. Garren, in a letter to
the Asheville Citizen, brings out
some things that will do for those
who have caught the western fever
to think over:
Where is the corn belt?
Is it in the northwest? Assuming
Iowa to be a typical corn growing
state of the northwest, the report of
the Boys Corn club for 1912 gives
data for comparison and helps an
swer the questions The boy with
the highest yield in that state made
only al bushels, the second 131,
the third 1913, the fourth 1913. The
highest yield in North Carolina
among the boys in their corn club
work was 1888 bushels, the second
1874, the third 173, the fourth 1862
The difference between the highest
yield in Iowa and the highest in
North Carolina is AZ bushels in fav-
or of North Carolina as corn-grow-
ing state. The difference of the
aggregate sums of the four highest
yields in Iowa and North Carolina,
respectively, is 1870 bushels in favor
of North Carolina as a corn growing
state The sum total of the highest
yield in each of Iowa's eleven dis
tricts is 1903 bushels; in North Car
olina's ten districts 1884 bushels.
The difference here gives 281 bush
els in North Cardinals favor. So
far as the Boys Corn clubs can
answer the questions the corn belt
is not in Iowa but in North Carroll
ma. Again, if Iowa is typical corn
growing state of the northwest, the
corn belt is not in the northwest
but in North Carolina.
TENTH DISTRICT.
In the Tenth district of NORTH
Carolina, more definitely in western
North Carolina, the four highes
yields are as follows:
Bus
Fred Bryson, Beta N. c. :. II
Frank Arthur, Biltmore N. C. Is
George Ward. Brickton N. C. IL
Grady Wilson, Canton N. C. II
SIS
There's difference of 80 bushe
between Iowa's highest yield of ID
bushels and western North Carol
mas highest yield of 173 bushels
favor of western North Carolina

ANACOSTIA WATER
SUPPLY INCREASED
Tanks at Good Hope, Randle High
lands, and Congress Heights Ready
for Use of Residents.

The printing establishment conducted
by Charles G. Lohr in Nichols Avenue,
between Good Hope Road and U street,
will vacate its present quarters in the
near future, as the property has been
purchased by Max Simon. Mr.. Lohr has
taken a lease on the property at the
corner of Good Hope Road and Nichols
Avenue. He has purchased large guam
t!ty of up-to-date machinery, which he
intends to install in the new place. and
Anacostia then will have a well-eQuipped
printing establishments
The District Fire Department has
caused the equipment at the Congress
Heights company to be reduced in &C
cordanCe with the original plans, and
yesterday one chemical engine and hose
carriage was removed.
The Original Garfield Citizens Associa-
ton discussed the question of providing
additional police protection at meeting
last night. From reports it would appear
that the prospects of securing an extern
sion of the water supply to the suburb
was encouraging and that favorable ac-
ton would be taken in the near future.
The first meeting of the ParentTeach-
ers' Association of Anacostia since the
beginning OF the school term was held
yesterday afternoon at the Van Buren,
school in w Street, with Mrs. Joseph
King, the newly elected president in the
chair tentative program for the win
ter work was outlined.
The water supply has been turned into
the tanks at Good Hope, Congress
Heights and Randle Highlands. and is
now ready for use. At the last two
named suburbs the district supply was
already there, and the tanks were in
stalled to improve the service. At Good
Hope, however, it is the first supply.

.BACKACHE A WARNING
YOU SHOULD HEED
II is One of Natures First Signs
of Kidney Trouble, if Neg
leeted, Serious Diseases
May Follow.

When the kidneys are clogged up
and inactive. nature has a way of warn
ing you.
Backache is one OF the first symp-
toms. You may also be troubled with
disagreeable. annoying bladder dis
orders: have attacks of lumbago or
rheumatism; become nervous, tired
and feel all worn out; puffy swellings
show under the eyes or in the feet and
ankles; and many other symptoms are
noticed. II they are neglected, dropsy,
diabetes, or Bright's Disease, which so
often prove fatal. may result.
1t is not only dangerous, but need
less for you to suffer and endure the
tortures of these troubles, when a lit
tie Croxone now will quickly and
surely end all such misery.
There is no more effective remedy
known for all such troubles than Crox-
one, because 1t reaches the cause. 1t
soaks right into the kidneys, through
the. walls and Innings: cleans out the
clogged up pores; neutralizes and dis
solves the poisonous uric acid and
waste matter that lodge in the Joints
and muscles and cause those terrible
rheumatic pains, and makes the kid
news filter and sift the poison out of
the blood and drive it from the sys-
tenn.
You will find Croxone different from
all other remedies. 1t is practically i'm
possible to take it without results.
An original package costs but a
trifie, and all druggists are authorized
to return the purchase price II Crox-
one should fail in a single case. Three
doses a day for few days is often
all that is ever needed to end the
worst backache, relieve rheumatic
pains, or overcome urinary disorders.

of Mrs. Despards speech, cheering and
waving her handkerchief. The non-mili-
tant delegates, however. resented the tone
of the speeches, but the tact displayed
York. president of the alliance, prevented
rupture.
Mrs Gait said the congress was anx-
ious to- welcome the delegates of all
the suffrage societies on equal terms but
that the difficulty in SO doing lay in
adjusting the constitution of the congress
to meet present conditions. She explained
that as an international body the con-
gress could not engage in international
conflicts. which involved the question of
the methods and tactics best adapted to
meet particular conditions.
Mrs. Gait protested against few wom-

10000 VETERANS
MAY Be UNPROV|DED
FOR AT GETTYSBURG
Report That $4,000 Veterans
Will Attend Big Reunion
Causes Authorities
Apprehension

Washington, June 2o.-Ten thus
and veterans who are planning to take
part in the semi-centennial celebra-
tion and blue and gray reunion on Get
tysburg battlefield next month will
find themselves without quarters or
subsistence unless the celebration COM
mission can arrange to provide for
them. The war department has been
notified that $4,000 veterans will at
tend, but there were funds to care for
only 10000 and Secretary Garrison to-
day notified the commission that he
would not accept responsibility for en-
tertaining the additional number.
The secretary sent this telegram to
the commission:
IF you have arranged that 10000 in
addition, are to attend you must pro-
vide the funds to take care of them.
There are no funds available to me
for this purpise and I am positively
prohiibted by express acts of Congress
from fncurring one dollars worth of
expense over and above the amounts
specifically appropriated for this par
ticular purpose. Should / do so I would
not only disobey the express law bur
would lay myself open both to civil
and criminal liability. If you have
committed yourself to the entertain
ment of more than 10000 initially ex-
pected You must make it perfectly plain
to all those over 10000 that the re-
sponsibility is entirely yours and tha
you will provide for them. 1 have no
facilities, nor any prospect of getting
any which will enable me to do more
than take care of the 10000 who up
to this time have been the expected
number"
Discusses Situation
Discussing the situation later, Secre-
tary Garrison said:
Unless the commission is in a no
sltion to supply the money needed for
the additional and unprovided for ex-
pense they viii have created an alarm
ing condition of affairs
The camp itself was placed by Con-
gress under the care of the Secretary
of War. The appropriation from Con-
gress and all previous arrangements
have been based upon an estimated at
tendance of 10000 veterans. If $4,000
should come a most serious situation
would be encountered
Six confederate veterans and three
union veterans will be included in the
committee which will represent the
House at the Gettysburg celebration
The House today formally accepted an
invitation from Pennsylvania TO par
ucipate and authorized the speaker to
appoint committee, headed by him
self. Later the committee was an
nounced as follows:
Representatives Talbot Maryland:
Stedman, North Carolina: Taylor. Ala

crate veterans): Sherwood. Ohio Could

kota; Austin. Tennessee: Monden,

In making the appointments Speaker
Clark discovered that there was not q
single union veteran on the republican
side of, the House. The speaker shook
his head sadly, as he commented on
this and recalled that when he came
to Washington in 1898 there were a
dozen civil war generals and score or
more colonels, majors and captains in
Congress.
