Mr.. Jorgensen was the first settler in
this immediate vicinity and was one of
the main spokes in the wheel for other
latter settlers who were made welcome
at his home and given food and lodging.
He was most generous to all and took
great interest in the county from the
moment he located here.
When the post office was established

that she obtained by running away from
her home at Pemberton, ". j., and the
ordeal Of being dragged through the
streets with Joel NJ. Foster, millionaire
Of Browns Mills. N. J.. by police onicers
today was too much for Delilah Brad

private sanatorium a nervous wreck
The case against Foster was called at
o'clock. He waived examination and
WIS released on a bond signed by w. J.
Mayer. a Chicago real estate man. The
district attorney ordered the girl held
under 500 to appear before the grand
jury in May next
The surprise Of the day came after
Foster reached his hotel. when Detec-
tiveswarren Burch placed him under ar
rest on a statutory charge. The arrest
OF the Bradley girl was effected by Chief
Crenshaw. The girl almost tainted when
the police chief told what she was want
ed for. The crowds on the streets fol-
lowed her to the police station. The girl
was not locked up, but placed in the Of
fee of the chief in charge of her father
until the bondsmen qualified, and this
took two hours time.
The condition of the girl while in the
office of the chief OF police became so
serious that a physician was summoned
and she was hustled away through a
rear entrance of the police station to the
sanatorium, in a taxicab. The crowd fol-
lowed the taxi for several blocks trying
to get glimpse of the unfortunate girl.

CONGRESS VIOLATES
ORGANIC ACT, HE SAYS
President of Connecticut Avenue As
sociation Scores Lawmakers for
Attitude Toward District.

The Connecticut Avenue Citizens Asso-
citation last night elected the following
officers:
A. 4. Dowell, president: J. II. Nye, first
vice president; ID. r. Rosen, second vice
president; ]. Dickinson. treasurer; Alfred
T. Gage, secretary. DR.. J. Bryant was
elected delegate to the Federation Of
Citizens Associations.
A speech opposing the present attitude
of the National Legislators toward the
District government was made by David
l.. Selke, retiring president, who said, in
part:
1T cannot be said that an exceeding
liberality has ruled the dealings of the
Federal government with the National
Capital. I believe that the most i'm
citizens associations is to protest and
take action against the encroachment
by the national legislators upon the
organic act.
Unfortunately, Congress of late has
not only violated the spirit but also
the letter OF the organic act. At pres
ent an evil genius seems TO inspire the
attitude of the lawmakers toward
Washington and its people.
THE organic act was not an act OF
liberty. but an act of equity. This act
has been curtailed in its operations more
than once, but not until within the last
two or three years has there been ar
actually vindictive spirit manifest in the
attitude of Congress toward the Dis
trict."
