EXPECT VETERANS
OF MONITOR FIGHT
Two Men Who Survived Sea
Battle in Hampton Roads
May Be At Meeting.

Two veterans Of the most famous sea
fight IN the history Of the civil war. the
battle between the Monitor and the
Merrimac. are expected to report to the
commanding officer of the Naval Vet
erane' Association at Camp Emery to-
day. These are William burst. Of Phila-
delphia. and Seaman Drisco!l. Of the
Soldiers Home at Hampton. Va.
According to Commodore Van Tassel.
Of the Naval Veterans, these are the
only two men who will attend the en-
campment who were members Of the
Monitor. It was expected that three
members of the crew Of the Kearsarge
at the time Of the battle with the Ala
bama, would attend the encampment,
but the delegation from Boston, where
these men live, came yesterday after
noon without them. The three are re-
ported to be old and in bad health. so
that the journey would be too much for
them.
Assistant Director General Harry A.
Johnston. although r OF q veteran Of the
civil war In the sense that he served in
either the army or navy. has the dis
tinction OF being one Of the few men
In Washington who saw the night be-
tween the Monitor and the Merrimac.
Or. Johnston was a small boy at the
time and lived in Norfolk. He went to
Newport News the day Of the great
fight and saw the whole affair. Because
OF that DR.. Johnston has been received
with honors by the naval veterans and
is considered almost one Of them.

Clusters Cannon, Relic,

a real relic of the war has been given
a place of honor at the main entrance

A.A. CLEM0NS ACQUIRES
OLD GEORGETOWN HOME
Becomes Owner of House Erected
More Than a Cen
tury Ago.

Interesting history attaches to the old
home at the northeast corner of 35th and
Prospect streets, Georgetown, which was
sold during the past week by Louise de
Yturbide, wife Of Augustine de Yturbide,
adopted heir of the Mexican emperor,
Macmillan, and grandson of Emperor
Yturhide of Mexico. The property was
acquired by Albert A. Clemens, the con-
sideration having been 1850.
A search of the records of the property
shows that the house probably was built
shortly after the ground was acquired by
Charles Worthington in 1910. The prop
erty originally belonged to John Threlkeld.
one of the largest owners of property in
the early days of Georgetown. In 1898
he sold it to John T. Mason, who in turn
transferred it to John Teackle in 1907.
Worthington acquired the property in
1910 and retained title until the time of
his death. By the terms of his will his
daughter. Catherine Pierson, became the
owner in 1895. and held the property until
1856. when it was sold to James Kearney.
By the will of Kearney the property went
to Louise Kearney. In 1889 Maria
OReiley took title to it, and in 1898 it
was transferred to Blanche kearney, who
left it to her neice, now Mrs. Yturbide.

Margery Enjoys the Music.

Considered purely in the light of har-
mony, ! can't say that the pups ac-
compartment has added to the attrac-
tiveness of Jim's mouth organ efforts.
but the pup undoubtedly has won for
the concerts a larger measure OF
liberation. Margery thinks 1t is the
finest music she ever heard. and is al
most persuaded that Blink" is hardly
suitable name for pup with such
Caruso-like talents
Jim wants to take his mouth organ
and the pup and give concert at the
first literary and musical" evening OF
the Friendly Neighbors Club. but Jane
ize her popularity as president by add
ing such number to the program.
Little as l can say for the music pro-
duced by Jim and the pup. when ! re-
call some of the amateur efforts which
were inflicted on us last winter / am
inclined to think Jane is needlessly ap-
prehensive.
The dancing evenings" of the club
are bound to be improved this winter
by the fact that music is to be pro-
duced on a photograph. Last winter
We depended on a somewhat tin-panny
plano, and interest in the gymnastic
gyrations of the lady who offic ated
at it used to distract the dancers and
cause them to bump into one another.
Those who are used to orchestral music
for tangoing may be inclined to scoff
at photograph, but at least il doesn't
try to stand on its head and turn fip-
flops during the course of dance.

SAYS BANK AND BROKER
SHOULD WORK TOGETHER
IA Square Deal for All" Should Be
Their Slogan, Speaker
Declares.

THE business of the real estate man
and the banker is in some ways closely
a affiliated" said Stoddard Jess, vice
president of the First National Bank of
Los Angeles. in the course of an ad-
dress on 1.-THE Relation of the Bank to
the Real Estate Man." delivered at the
recent convention of the National AS
ISOLATION of Real Estate Exchanges.
The real estate man by bringing in
new people increases the clientele of
the bank and consequently increases
the amount of funds on deposit and
under the control of the banker On
the other hand the banker in meeting
the desires of the real estate man, by
loaning as freely as conditions will per-
nit after keeping the corner stones of
prosperity intact, makes it easier for
the real estate man to interest his
prospective customers and to effect
sales. Each in doing his duty proves
helpful to the other. The real estate
men and the bankers should do effec-
tive team work that will make for the
upbuilding and development of both
city and country along right lines
| Let the real estate men plan and
develop. actuated by an inspiration to
achieve rather than to get, and ever
| mindful of the effect that the char
acter of the development will have on
the future.
Let the bankers cooperate and en-
courage development to the extent that
conservation will permit, ever remem-
oerins that the business OF the real es-
tate man promotes activity and that
activity brings prosperity to all.
Together let the real estate mon
and the bankers accept as a rule Of
conduct the motto "a Square Deal for
ALL" and future generation as well as
this, will commend them,"
