After getting to the front Mr.. Ivey
saw a plenty of excitement. He
participated in the following battles,
many of them the hottest in that
awful struggle: Gainesville, second
Bull Run, South Mountain, Ante
tam, Fredericksburg, Charlottesville,
Rappahanock Station, White Sulphur
Springs, and then the worst os 4 i
Gettysburg. Here he had the mis-
fortune, in the midst of one of the
fierce charges for which that battle
became celebrated, to lose a leg.
The member was shot away, and soon
after the shot struck, the surgeon of
the 18th Indiana performed amputa-
tion at the knee.
As soon as Mr.. Ivey could leave
the hospital, he returned to British

Sucker Anxious About
Commissioner Gorgas

Within a few days according to
Charles d. Sucker, secretary of
Sucker Brothers Construction Com
pany, river wall contractors, the new
agreement relative to the construc-
ton of the line of steps through the
gap at Market street will be closed
with the Board of Public Works.
This job, 1t is understood, will be on
force account" as actual cost plus
fifteen per cent, is known among en-
g1neerS and contractors.
Furthermore the construction COM
pany is ready to proceed with the clos
ing of the gap and the preliminaries
VIII be started as soon as the water
recedes another foot.
Sucker Brothers Company. 1t is un-
derstood, is getting a wee bit anxious
as to what disposition is to be made of
the remainder of the retained esti-
mate. for completion of the wall in
the neighborhood of $4,000 in view
of Commissioner Gorgas apparent
anxiety to pay off the Opperman
award. This it is said, is desired be-
fore the agreement to fill in the wall
gap is closed.
The balance of the estimate acord-
ing to Secretary Sucker should be
considered on par with that of the
Opperman arbitrators' s.v7ard and that
If the warrant for the Sucker esti-
mate is first presented to the superin-
tendent of finance it should be nonored
because the money is in the fund
and vica versa Commissioner Gorgas,
according to Mr.. Sucker, had held the
same opinion.
Mr.. Gorgas, however, declined to
admit this.
"All I've said in Council I'll stand
by" said he. MY contention all along
has been that the Opperman award
should be paid. That's what I'll stand
upon"
Did you agree with Sucker
Brothers suggestion that their esti-
mate should be on a par with Opper-
mans claim"
"As to that I've nothing to say. Wen
not cross bridge until we come to It,"
said the superintendent of finance and
accounts.
Report was current to-day that the
arbitration board will in the near
future ask the city for definite an
swer as to whether or not their bills
totaling $4,000 are to be paid This it
is believed, may be preliminary to an
action in assumpsit against the city
to recover these claims.

Seventh Chapter of 1.-THE Diamond

suddenly swerved his mount straight
toward the crowded grandstand, the
spectators rushing to the upper seats
as Starlight gained the lower tier.
In the multitude, the gypsy youth dis
cerned his mother and Esther, Arthur
spurred Starlight on, who safely ac-
complished the fifteenSfoot leap from
the end of the grandstand to the
ground. Arthur drew rein as he ap-
preached the crumbs of the Monticello
Hunt Club. over which the animal
chase was then being run.
Temporarily free from pursuit, the
youth sought rest for himself and
Starlight behind hedge skirting the
field. from where he watched the pur-
suit of the hapless fox. In the dis
tance he observed relocated driver,
apparently outdistanced, squirting on
bis mount.
Detective Blacke, much to the sur
prise of Hagar, visited Stanley Hall

PARADISE ON SEVERN
THE SUMMER COLONY.
Is Cooperative and Eliminates Nearly
All Earthly Cares.

A mosquito less haven where 5reezes
never fail TO blow and where such
temper-trying things as kitchen stoves
are absolutely unnecessary is being
enjoyed by 90 delighted Baltimoreans
at the Summer Cooperative Colony
on the Severn river.
1t is a place where every household
peace destroyer is eliminated as near
" as possible. There is no marketing,
cooking or dishwashing for the woman,
and there is no accumulation of extrav-
agant bills to worry the man. When
meal time comes the colonists make
their way to the big community din
ing hall overlooking the water. know
ing they will be given a meal highly
satisfying to their open-air whetted
appetites without having had TO cast
one thought as to its planning before
hand. And they have the comfortable
feeling that il is costing them less
than If they had prepared it them
selves.
This cooperative colony, which was
begun on a small scale last summer
through the financial backing of Will
lam f. Cochran and the interests Of
a number of other enthusiasts, has
grown into amazingly successful pro-
portions this year. All of the 35 cot
tages, built by the community club,
are taken and workmen are busy finish
ing up more cottages which have al
ready been spoken for
Membership to the colony is secured
by applying to the board of directors
of which william Fl. Maltbie is the
president. The name then comes up
before the entire board and il approved
the applicant is admitted as a mem
ber. The cottages are built in bunga-
low style. varying slightly in size,
which accounts for the differnce in
their price.
The colony is built on a high bluff
Of land overlooking Round Bay on the
Severn river. The altitude is respon-
sible for the lack Of mosquitoes, the
colonists think. Each cottage has a
bathroom and running water.
Delicious drinking water is secured
from a series of natural springs on
the estate. The dining hall is in
charge of Mrs. M. A. johnson. who
has charge of the Washington Apart
II ents during the winter months.
One of the cottages in the colony
has been taken by the social workers
of the Garrett Building, who will
spend their vacations there at different
times during the summer. Another
cottage is now under way of compile
tion for DIR. Winford II. Smith. super
intendent cf Johns Hopkins Hospital
This will be usel as a vacation house
fo1r the nurses in the training school
of the hospital.
The social side of the colony forms
one of its chief charms. A dance is
held in the dining hail every Saturday
night. Tennis courts, boating and
bathing form the other most popular
amusements.
The few rules necessary in govern
ing the colony are made by the colo
nists, who hold meetings from time
to time TO decide any such question
which may arise.
