BOYS COMING HERE
ON WORLDWIDE TOUR
Fifty Youths to Invite Others from All
Nations to Attend Panama
Exposition.

Many parties of tourists pass through
Washington frequently, but the party of
boys who will arrive in this city Satul-
day at noon will be distinctive one, in
that every member has accomplished
something Of note. The party is COM
posed of fifty boys, every one of whom
Is an accomplished musician and who has
achieved something out of the ordinary.
The boys will visit Washington on a tour
Of the world, which they will take for
the purpose Of inviting boys from every
nation in the world to come to the Pana-
ma-Pacific Exposition to be held in San
Francisco in 1915. At the same time they
will give a practical demonstration of
an all-around American boy. They will
be examined by educational commissioners
wherever they go, and will be pitted
against the natives In their national
games.
The average age of the tourists is about
fifteen years They were selected on a
basis Of rs per cent for accomplishments
outside of school, 10 per cent for health,
10 per cent for scholarship, Is per cent
for moral character, Is per cent for ath-
letics, and Is per cent for musical ability.
The boys, together with those who will
come from different parts Of the world
to the number of 5000 will compose at
the exposition an ideal city, in which the
youngsters will have full charge Of the
government. 1t will be just such a city
as Judge Willis Brown, chairman Of the
National Youth Achievement Committee.
has conducted for the past six years in
Indiana, only on a larger scale.
The expenses of the trip will be COM
paratively small inasmuch as the boys
will not be allowed to sleep in hotels. The
Chambers of Commerce Of the different
cities will provide quarters in the homes
of prominent people. While in this city
President Wilson will receive the visitors.
They leave here on Tuesday.

M'CLEARY'S CONFESSION
admitted AS EVIDENCE
Defense Will Seek to Show Mrs
N. B. Henry Died of Tu-
berculosis.
PHYSICIANS TAKE THE STAND

That Mrs. Mamie B. Henry did not
come to her death by strangulation was
the sum total of the testimony of the
witnesses for the defense at the trial ir
Rockville yesterday of Norman Bruce
McCleary, charged with the murder OF
Mrs. Henry. 1t seemed from the trend
of the questions of the defense that Nc.
Cleary's lawyers will contend that Mrs
Henry died from tuberculosis.
The day was a long one for the young
man in the prisoners dock, and for the
first time since the start of the proceed
ings he showed the effect of the strain
on his nerves. His confident manner
broke in the morning at the announce
ment of the judges that his confession
would be admitted, and for the better
part of the day he sat a huddled heap
in his chair. The trial continued through
the afternoon and until 10 O'Clock at
night.
To combat the contention of the State
that the autopsy had proved that Mrs.
Henry was strangled. the defense placed
on the stand DIR. w. c. Ash, the nephew
Of the dead woman, and Drs. Samuel q.
wagaman, John r. Loughlin, and DR..
Campbell, all of Hagerstown.
The examination OF the physicians was
a long one and adduced a mass of tech
nical evidence. DR.. Ash stated that Mrs.
Henry had a cough and had suffered at
different times from loss of blood" He
said he had prescribed for Mrs. Henry.
The other three physicians had been
present at the autopsy and they declared
that from the examination at that time
they were prepared to say that Mrs.
Henry did not die of throttling. They
said that there were no marks of vio-
lence to Justify such a conclusion, but
that the autopsy had not been thorough
enough for them TO say what had been
the cause of the woman's death. They
would not attribute ii to natural causes.
The trial will be continued this morn
ing. and the defense Will place Dr.
Wadsworth, an eminent physician of
Philadelphia, on the stand TO refute
the testimony of the prosecution.
Startling developments conclusive OF
McCleary's innocence are promised by
the lawyers of the accused man.
Yesterday morning George w. Fri
dinger, chief of police of Hagerstown,
took the stand and testified that he had
talked with McCleary after the alleged
confession and that then the young man
had told him that he had not intended
to kill the woman, but had "choked her
a little too hard"
Mrs. Mamie 3. South, Miss Pearl
Leary, and several other women were
called by the defense in the attempt to
establish an alibit for McCleary. Mrs.
South startled the court by declaring
that States Attorney Wolfinger had
tried to prevent her from testifying by
threatening her.

NEW PHASE OF QUESTION.
senator Borah Discusses Chamber
lain Resolution Anent Treaties.

Senator Borah, member of the Com
nittee on Foreign Relations has given
new phase to the resolution of Senator
Chamberlain calling for the abrogation
Of the treaties with Great Britain re-
speeding the Panama Canal. He con-
tends that if Senator Chamberlain is
correct in his premises then there is no
need to abrogate the treaties or attempt
to abrogate them, and thereby offend
a friendly power.
The whole proposition of Senator
Chamberlain, Mr.. Borah said yesterday.
is based on the fact that the Isthmian
Canal is being constructed through
property within the territorial jurisdic-
ton of the United States. whereas the
Clayton-Bulwer and Hay-Pauncefote
treaties deal with the subject of a canal
through foreign territory only.

PATIENTS
REPORT IMPROVEMENT
All, Either Through Efficacy Of Serum
or Suggestion, Say They
Are Better.
THE PUBLICITY EMBARRAssEs

Whether from suggestion caused by
treatment with supposed cure, or from
the curative effects of the turtle serum
injected by Dr. Frederick Franz Fried
mann, the tubercular patients who a
week ago underwent treatment by the in
ventor Of the white plague remedy at
George Washington Hospital, are show
Ing improvement in most cases. Several
of the patients have reported to surgeons
homes that they have slept better and
eaten more heartily since the injection
of the serum.
There has not been a case in which
patients have not asserted their faith in
the efficacy Of the treatment The conf
dence in DR.. Friedman of the patients
Is unusual. Even in the few cases in
which no signs Of improvement have been
noted, the Washingtonians who were sue
cessful in their efforts to be the first
citizens Of this city to receive treatment.
say they are confident that the treatment
b good.
In the cases OF some Of the younger
patients, 1t has been noticed that they
are becoming interested in play. The
elder patients have reported increased
appetites and natural Sleep. In two
cases. coughing has practically stopped.
These two patients, however. are not
in advanced stages of tuberculosis. One
Of the male patients has been able to
take daily walks for the past few days.
He formerly had been unable to ex-
ercise at times In this patient decided
improvement generally, in vitality as
well as looks. has been noticed by his
family.
Most Of the patients have been care
full in selecting their food since the
treatment, and even with a restricted
list of desirable foods have eaten
heartily.
A male patient who has remained at
home since the administration of the
treatment, in order to give the serum
additional chance to work, returned to
his office yesterday. feeling stronger,
he says. than for months.
The patients in most cases have re-
quested that their names be suppressed
They say that they are subjected to
comment, and often are deprived Of
the association Of healthy friends and
workers, because of the publicity given
their cases. Two Of the patients, one
of whom was forced to give fictitious
address. because he said he would lose
his position, have said that they would
be liable to be discharged from their
offices II it were thought that other
workers were in danger from them.
