Secretary Daniels Needs Brougham
With Dark Green Trimmings.

Drivers Of night-liners and varying
brands of ''sea-going hacks" are might
lily interested just now in a simple ad-
vertisement appearing above the sigma
ture of Josephus Daniels, Secretary OF
the Navy. The Secretary wants "a sec
ond-hand broueham," either extension
front or straight 'front.'" with the fur
Their limitation that either must have
dark green interior trimmings
Acting on the theory that nothing is
SO profitable as selling to the govern
ment, several drivers contemplate offer
ing their rigs to the Navy Department
with a view to retiring to life of COM
fort on the competence it is hoped TO
realize from the sale. So when bids are
opened in the office of the chief clerk of
the Navy Department next Tuesday 1t is
expected that Secretary Daniels will
have an opportunity to choose from a
line of vehicles. including everything
from chariots like those seen in Quo
Vadis" to the 'deacon's one-hoss shay"
and conveyances Of the early Victorian
and ante-bellum period. But depart
mental needs require dark green interior
trimmings and no other vehicles
will go.

LAST MELON CARGO.
Schooner on Way to Washington
With Wind-Up Supply.

When the schooner Nettie May. now
at an eastern shore point. arrives at
the 18th street wharf In the latter part
Of this week she will bring the last
cargo of melons expected to come
here this season, and her arrival
will mark the wind-up OF the water
melon season. While there Is posi-
bility Of there being other boats on the
bay or river loading melons for this
market. IL Is not probable. as the deal
ers at the wharf keep in touch with the
country that supplies this city with
melons and know what boats are load
ing.
Capt. Dave Faunce has the Nettie May
loading for him, and the other dealers
state that all the boats they expected
have arrived, so that by the middle OF
the coming week 1t Is probable the last
melon will have been sold from YES
sci at the wharf. and the season will be
at an end
This morning FIVE boats with about
5000 melons aboard were lying at
the wharf market. and they were in
fair demand at from TO 15 cents per
hundred.

Date of Organization.

The Central Presbyterian Church was
organized by Rev. DR.. A. ". Pitzer in
May, 1868, and the present building was
completed in 1885. For the past few
years, it is stated, the drift of the con-
gregation has been away from Cd and I
streets, and this movement became SO
pronounced that in 1909 the congregation
secured property on Columbia Heights
and Immediately began chapel work there.
In 1911 the property at 18th and Mon
roe streets. originally secured. was given
up and a new site purchased at the
streets. A portable chapel. which had been
used prior to this date, was moved to the
new site
1t has been the intention of the Central
Church congregation ever since the work
on Columbia Heights was begun, in 1909,
to build on it's new site, but until some
disposition could be made of the property
at Sd and I streets, the plan could not be
carried out.
