WASHINGTONIANS VISIT
"PLUTO'S STRONGHOLD"
Mr.. and Mrs. Weschler Take Dare
and Tour Dismal Cave Near
Hot Springs, Va.

SPECIAL IN Inc Washington Herald.
Hot Springs, Va, March Ga short
distance from here. near Dunns Gap, is
a little known cave that goes by the
name of Pluto's Stronghold. 1t is
cave with long. low labyrinthine pas
fashion through Cimmerian darkness
They are dismal and damp and silent
save for the whir of the wings of
frightened bats that fit through the
gloom and beat themselves against
the earthen walls of this natural
prison house.
Mr.. and Mrs. Everett 4. Weschler, of
Washington, who are at Hot Springs
on a pleasure trip. CHANGED to hear of
this dismal cave while in conversation
with residents and visitors of the Fir-
ginia resort. The washingtonians eX-
pressed a desire to visit the dark pas
sageways, and the residents just dared
them-for they know how drear and
repulsive those passageways really are.
The Washingtonian took the dare,
supplied themselves with an electric
pocket hashlight. a coil of rope and
an unusual amount Of nerve. Flash
ing the light the two bold adventur-
ers entered the dark. forbidding pas
sages. On and on they went. And all
steps. When within 100 yards of the
mouth of the cave. the battery failed
and darkness enveloped them. They
could see nothing. They could hear
nothing save the whirring. whirring of
the bats as they sailed about their
heads. Finally Mr.. Weschler. cropping
about, discovered a faint glimmer of
light, and the terrifying experience
soon was brought to rapid termination.

FEW u. S. PRINTERS
WILL BE DISMISSED
Officials Solve the Problem by In
viting Men to Take
NacatlonS.

Employees of the Government Print
ing Office. who few days ago were
threatened with wholesale diSmisSals,
were cheered yesterday when Public
Printer Ford invited them to take a
vacation.
1t had been feared that a hundred or
more employees would have to be dis
missed because of the adjournment of
Congress and consequent slackening of
work. together with the circumstance
that this year no hold-oVer work had
been held in reserve for the slack sea-
son.
Following The Herald's report of the
situation, government printing officials
began to cast about for ways and means
of preventing wholesale dismissals. Yes
will relieve the situation materially.
A great number OF employees have not
as yet taken the leave of absence with
pay to which they are entitled. Many
others have taken only a portion of thei:'
vacations. A great number of these va
cations are still due from the last fiscal
year.
Public Printer Ford has requested
these men to take their leaves at once.
The order will affect more than half
of the employees OF the printery and will
reduce the total to such extent that in
all likelihood there will be but few
dismissals. 1t is expected that when
the men come back from their leaves
a material increase in work will await
them.

PLIGHT OF CITY'S POOR
INCREASED BY DISEASE
Epidemics of Pneumonia and Grippe
Follow on Heels of Severe
Winter.

An epedemic of pneumonia and
CRIME has descended upon the needy
families of Washington during the
past few weeks, greatly increasing the
suffering of those who have just pass
ed through one of the hardest winters
in the history of local charities, II was
stated at the headquarters of the AS
sociated Charities yesterday. During
February that organization cared for
nearly $50 families.
Although the winter practically Is
over. IL was said. the unusual number
of cases of March diseases among the
poyerty-stricken will cause an even
greater demand upon the charitable Or
eanizations of the city for the next two
weeks than during the entire winter.
Many men who We're able to support
their families during the severe winter
months now are compelled to call upon
charities for aid because of sickness. The
Associated Charities has number or
such cases The portion of the donation
week fund allotted to the Associated
Charities came when most needed, 1t was
said, but It will not meet the REQUIRE
ments of that institution for the re-
nainder of March.
