The high condition of winter wheat on
May 1. S2.s per cent. had dropped to

lions from June 1 to harvest are better

Special Correspondent Of The Washington Herald.
New York, June s.-Miss Anne Morgan.
daughter of the famous financier, has
thrown down the gage of battle to the
hordes of Broadway tango investigators
and uplifters who have cast reflections
upon the Strand Roof Garden. She
denies heatedly that the garden closed
because the various uplifters turned cold
shoulders upon it.
On account of the criticism that Miss
Morgan has received because of her con-
nection with the dancing place which
was aimed to give wholesome atmos-
phere to the night life of Broadway,
the heress is very much peeved.
Every kind of uplifts society you can
mention" she says. asks me for money.
Well-tley will wait a long time be-
fore they get any more from me-
Mrs. Tom Thumb has succumbed to
the movie lure, She has been engaged
with Will Archie to picture plays to be
produced by a company of Lilliputians.
Archie has called the company the Pee
wee Troupe"
Wall Street stenographers-who are
about the loveliest in the town-have
real mystery. One of the stenograph-
ers in the street" received the dictation
from her employer closing a large deal.
He signed it. enclosed it in an envelope
and sealed it, but he did not wish to
send it until other transactions pend
ing were settled.
He handed the letter to his stenog-
rapher. instructing her to hold it ready
to mail whenever he told her. telephoned
her or telegre phed her. She called his
attention to 1t several times. and he told
her to hold it a little longer and final
ly the document got on her nerves. Ten
days later as her employer was leaving
she asked him again about the letter.
..Oh-let 1t CO." he answered. and hur-
ried on for the $40 train. With a sigh
of relief she took the letter to the mail
chute. Just as it was about to slip
from her fingers the words flashed
through her mind. Let it co. After
many futile attempts to reach her en-
ployer she put 1t back in the desk. She
was wrong, of course or there would
he no story. She should have mailed
the letter. but what was the poor girl
to do?

HOTEL MEN WIN IN
 ORDINANCE FIGHT
New City Law Will Prohibit Soliciting for Hotels and Boarding
 Houses

A large delegation of hotel men repre- senting the Birmingham Hotel Mems as- sociationy appeared before the city con- mission yesterday afternoon and secured the adoption of an ordinance prohibiting soliciting of patronage by porters of hotels or boarding houses any place in the city.
 A delegation of boarding house proprie- tors and smaller hotel managers was present and protested against the ordi- nance, through their attorney, N. E. Feagin. They stated the operation of the ordinance would put them out of busi- ness.
 The cause of the ordinance is the al legged practice of hotel porters and solici- tors at the railway stations acting as agents for houses of i'll fame. Members of the hotel mems association cited in stances of how this illegimate traffic was carried on. The ordinance is in tended to stop this evil. The opposition to the ordinance stated, however, it would effect the respectable small hotels as well as the houses of i'll fame and therefore, should be fixed so as to dis criminate in it's results. The commission was of the opinion that no honest hotel business or boarding house would suffer H. M. Burt c. H. Nabb, and others spoke.
