TELLS. OF ROCK CREEK PARK

ative's Speech in House.
TELLS. OF ROCK CREEK PARK

Charles c. Glover. president Of the
Riggs National Bank, whose connection
with the acquisition of Rock Creek Park
by the government was attacked on the
floor of the House, January Ii. by Rep
resentative Sims of Tennessee. last night
made public a statement, in reply to
Representative Sims, in which he denies
the insinuation made by Mr.. Sims that
he had tried to make money out Of the
government in the Rock Creek Park mat
ter. Mr. Glover resents Mr.. Sims criti-
cism as a baseless and cowardly attack
upon his honor.
Documents Made Public.
Mr.. Glovers statement is eight or nine
mits letters. portions Of speeches. news
paper editorials and copies Of contracts
and agreements in support Of his state
ments. Mr.. Glover says. in part:
with two statements of his speech OF
January Is, 1913, I agree. The first is
page 1876 Congressional Record:
I want to say, Mr.. Speaker, that any
the floor of the House makes false
statement about what is pertinent to be
considered at the time and misleads the
members Of the House and cause them to
vote otherwise than they would ought to
be expelled. No such man has any bust
ness In this House..
THAT is exactly right.
''The second is in part Of the next para
graph, on the same page, as follows:
"'I am aware that members of the
House, under the privileges OF this House.
can get up and denounce individuals and
make derogatory statements about men.
and under the law they can be held re-
sponsible for it nowhere else. Conse-
quently, I do not think it is q manifes-
tat.on Of great moral or physical cour-
age to get up here and denounce indivi-
uals. when you cannot be called to ac-
count for it.
His Expulsion Justified.
"Out Of his own mouth in these state
ments Mr.. Sims stands convicted Of con-
duct justifying his expulsion and Of
moral cowardice.
'It will be remembered that the sub
stance Of Mr.. Sims charge March 3,
1909. which so misled the House that it
defeated the bill that would have added
100 acres to Rock Creek Park at low
cost to the government. was that l, hav-
ing secured options upon that land, had
and finally at $435. 900. with the implica-
ton that had tried to cheat the govern
ment. He distinctly made those asser-
tions. Confronted by the facts in my
Icttit StdtcIHcut DclOIc Tic III
vestigating committee. he now grudgingly
and Obscurely admits that he was wrong.
but says he was misled by the statement
of another member in the debate, who
read from a report Of the District Com
missioners on another park project Chat
Of Meridian HID and applied it to the
Rock Creek Park addition. Although, as
the Congressional Record shows. his re-
marke Of March 3 were made in the
afternoon Of that day, he further excuses
himself by saying that they were made
in the fatigue and confusion Of a mid
night session.

Glover Was Misquoted.

'But he has gone further in his speech
Of January Is. 1913. in which (page 1873,
Congressional Record), in speaking Of the
land In question, and after misquoting me
as saying that in 1908 it was worth SILL
2OO an acre (Which I never said), he says:
AT what he swears was then the value
over $1,000 an acre-he would make

CROss-sTITCHING ON TOWELS

The marking of towels commends
itself to many housewives. The indi-
vidual touch is pleasing.
If one has not the time or ability to
do the marking in satin stitch - and
yet this work is not difficult If one
will but have patience and persever-
ance - the letters may be done in
cross-stitch with excellent effect Pat
terms to follow may be had in almost
, any of the fashion magazines, but af-
ter all is said and done, there is moth
ing more effective than the time-hon-
ored Old English letters which graced
the samplers in the days of our grand
mothers.
The letters may be done in different
colors, according to the fancy Of -the
user. 0Re fancy is TO have a distinct.
i've color for each member Of the fam
lily, says the Newark News.
II the cross-stitch is used. sec to it
that the barred canvas, which is the
guide in cross-stitching, is of the right
size mesh. For the guest towels, or
perhaps the buck face-cloths, get a
finer canvas than that used for the
heavy Turkish towels. Basic this Sc
curely into place and then proceed to
the letters. taking care to place all the
stitches in the same relative direction.
That is, if the first stitch in each
square runs from left to right, make
the first stitch in every other square
left to right The work will be found
simpler if line of left to right stitch
es is completed before finishing the
tiny crosses. Then. too, the work
done after this fashion will look bet
ter on the wrong side.

After completing the letters = and
two or three letters look far better
than one - make tailpiece. There
are numberless unique ones to be
found on old samplers. The tailpieces
give decided finish to the work.
The cross-stitching done, wet the
piece of canvas thoroughly and rub il
hard between the hands, before trying
to pull out the threads. The water
and the rubbing take out the dressing
used to give the canvas stiffness and
make the matter of thread-pulling ex-
tremely simple.
But to return moment to the more
elaborate marking, that of the solid
lettering, or satin stitch, as it is usu-
ally called. If he stamping is care
FURY done, the working rs wonderfuI-
ly simplified.
+ II is possible now to purchase an
excellent assortment of letters for
stamping; all that is necessary is to
haste the paper pattern into place and
then press with a warm iron and the
stamping is completed.
To have the work effective, the nov
ice needs to appreciate the necessity
of padding. Fill The letters with
chain stitching, using darning cotton
of not too coarse quality, for the pur-
pose. For the satin stitch one of the
four-strand cottons, mercerized fin
ish, will be found very satisfactory

use as fine needle as the thread

actly on the marking and as close to
the stitch before as possible, without

MATERIALS AT LEAST ARE FIXED

Some of the fashions which are now
being tried out at Nice and the Riviera
find their way over here in duplicate
models, so that TO certain extent the
models that are being shown even
thus early will doubtless find an echo
in those that will come over about the
middle of March Not until then will
the final and definite proclamation go
forth as to what shall and shall not
be worn.
To those who wish to be sure before
they go ahead the wiser plan is TO wait
for these heraldings, for the stamp of
the seal of approval of Paris means
much to many. The speculative, how
ever, may indulge in those fashions
which are being shown now with a
reasonable degree of safety, for while
they may not be the dernier cri, they
cannot be far wrong and are sure to
have many good points to warrant in
diligence in them.
Fashion changes come slower than
Is at first apparent. And the rejected
idea of last year is often the accepted
one of this. One thing, however, can
be reasonably relied upon as being
fixed at this time of the year and that
is the material of which these later
models will be fashioned. These ma
terials are decided SO long in advance
of the use of them that few midseason
changes are ever affected Some have
a wider popularity than others, ac-
cording to the various needs and tastes

country, but most are generally ac-

Last Saturday afternoon, when the
call of fire was sounded from the up
per end of Liliha street, one OF the
nurses Of the PaIama Settlement de-
cided to go and view the conflagra-
ton. She had gone perhaps two blocks
up the street when she came upon
knot of men forming circle around
two Hawaiian women: one of whom
was under the influence of liquor. The
other, it seems, had not yet yielded
to the temptation.
Time for the third round had just
been called when the nurse arrived
and the two wome nwere going at 1T
with hammer and tongs. Hair was
flying and hoIekus were being torn TO

egged the combatants on and dared
them TO do their worst Not so with

the throng, she thrust herself between
the two Amazons and then and there
declared the bout draw. Ill
Still this untimely interruption did
not serve to calm the tempers of the
two participants in the broil, and
they were for continuing the match.
However, few words from the nurse
in question Strengthened matters out,
and the two contestants agreed to
abrIe by her decision and split the
purse but it was not until the nurse
had taken one of the women to her
home and locked her up in room,
did she feel sure that her labors had
been rewarded. -..- ...-.... IL +.
