There was an affecting scene when
the new king greeted his brother,
Nicholas. The ruler of a day sobbed
audibly, and brokenly thanked Lieut..
Col. Francoudis, who captured
Schinas, King Georges assassin.
Lieut.. Col. Francoudis told Con-
stantine that he and the late king
were walking along the street when
a shot rang out. King George stag
gered and fell to the walk. Fran
coudis leaped upon Schinas as the
latter aimed his revolver for another
shot, The assassin did not speak a
single word. Soldiers hurried up and
>Schinas. was subdued.

The grasshopper is an amiable in

He consists of legs and appetite in
equal parts. In both respects he i.
unequalled. A grasshopper can jump
fifty times his own length. However,
as he usually Jumps back on the Sec

this doesn't do him any particular
good.

THE OPEN FORUM

To the Editor: I have been following
your articles published from time to time
regarding the proposed bill Of Senator
Poindexter. now before the Senate. pro-
viding for a delegate to represent this
city in Congress The bill should be
passed, and your paper is doing excellent
work in placing this matter before the
reading public Of our fair city. had the
good fortune of attending the Progressive
National Convention held last August in
Chicago as one of this city:s delegates,
and the idea of having a delegate from
the District of Columbia in Congress was
much favored by that body, as IL exem-
plified by the attitude Of Mr.. Frank j.
Hogan. the representative Of that party
in this city. am pleased with Mr..
Hogan's remarks, published in The
Herald some days ago. He voices the
sentiment of us Progressives in this city,
and I think the leaders of the Demo-
cratic and Republican parties in this city
will support the stand taken by The
Herald and others in advocating this
measure. Your correspondent. Mr.. WILL
lam A. Hickey. in The Herald . few
days ago. suggests mass meeting. This
idea, It seems to me, would be just the
thing. Every organization Of our ctti.
Gems should approve The Herald's inter-
esting articles advocating the Poindexter
measure, and II . poll of our citys resi-
dents and taxpayers were taken on this
proposition no doubt the stamp Of APP
prevail would BE- had.

Chairman Johnson. of the House
District Committee. has made the di-
rect charge that the juries selected TO
condemn property in recent years were
packed" He says that sometimes
they were packed in the interest OF
the people who owned the land to be
condemned and sometimes they were
packed in the interest of those owning
abutting property against which as
sessments should be made. The
juries were always packed" says Mr..
Johnson.
If this be true, who did the pack
ing? These juries are part OF the ma
chinery OF the courts and their per-
sonnet received the approval of the
bench. Is it possible that the justices
OF the Supreme Court of the District
were deliberate parties TO an attempt
10 perpetrate fraud on the community?
The mere suggestion is repugnant to
every one who is acquainted with the
high standing OF the District judges.
More than this. the men who have
served upon these juries are not of
the character to warrant wanton &C
cusation of dishonesty. The fact that
there was frequent repetition in the
matter OF selections does not, Of
itself. prove anything. As matter
of fact. experience and knowledge &C
quired through service in condemna-
ton proceedings could naturally be
regarded as valuable aids in reaching
proper judgments upon property APP
prasement 1t is a tax upon credulitv
to believe that these men were par
Elephants in a swindle. for. in brief,
that is the gravamen of Chairman
.Johnson's charge. If his assertion be
true. these men. who have hitherto
been respected i'll this community.
must have knowingly violated the
solemn oath to which they subscribed
when they entered upon their duties.
Mr. johnson is a lawyer and man
of affairs. He must know the serious
purport OF the charge which he has
made. Having made public accu-
sation. he must be prepared to prove
it. Every well-rneaning citizen now
hopes that the inquiry will be pushed
to its furthest limit. The broad and
sweeping indictment which has been
made must be substantiated in every
detail or else Mr.. Johnson will him.

and misunderstanding statements
