milton Of the faithful service he has rem
dered for the past twenty-five years as
adJutant

close of the civil war. The history was
written by him and gives a clear descrfp-
tion Of the activities of the organization

ity has enrolled a total of 1,167 members.

PULLMAN WOULD Limit
SALE OF Firearms
Urges Rigid Law for District in Course
of Annual Report.

rigid law restricting the sale of fire.
arms in the District was urged by Maj.
pullman In his annual report to the Com
missioners yesterday. Such a law would
be OF untold aid to the police, he declared,
In diminishing casualties and putting a
definite check on crime in this city.
suggestion is made" the report read,
that law be enacted which would
make 1t necessary for every person to
make written application to a dealer for
the purchase Of a firearm, and that de-
livery not be made for ten days to thirty
days, giving the police department time
to inquire into the character OF the pros
pective purchaser and giving time for the
purchaser to lose his # of passion II he
wishes to obtain the kevolver to harm
anyone. instead Of for the protection OF
his home"
Maj. Pullman also suggested that the
police department be furnished a picture
Of every purchaser of frearm. He de-
clared:
Legitimate owners of revolvers would
not be harmed II a step further in the
law were taken and the name OF every
person owning a firearm in the District
were registered. along with the name and
number of the weapon. Even such a law
would be far less drastic than the Sui
Ivan law, which is operative in New
York"

CALVARY M. {. CHURCH
GIVES CHICKEN FEAST
Annual Dinner Proves Brilliant Success,
To Aid in Eliminating Debt. \

The annual chicken dinner of Calvary
NJ. z. Church, an<affsir which Is regarded
as one OF the leading events of the Co
lunnbia Heights section, was held In the
Sunday school room OF the church yester-
day evening, with a record crowd in at
tendance A..
The proceeds of the dinner will be de-
voted to wipfng out the church debt, and
while no statement was made as to the
actual sum realized, II was understood
that the receipts we're more than crafty
ing.
DR.. James shera Montgomery, the pas
tor, who formerly was pastor OF Metro
politan Memorial NJ. z. Church, received
the dinner guests. who began filing into
the church buil6ing shortly after
o'clock. Two long tables had been set In
the Sunday school rooms of the edifice,
and from the time the feast began until
nearly o'clock the tables were filled
with throng who knew the delights OF
the affair.
Rev. Mr.. Montgomery, who received the
guests, was aided in his direction of the
affair by practically every member of the
Calvary Sunday school, one of the largest
classes in the city. The dinner consisted
OF chicken pie-the real piece de resist
ance-potatoes, rice, peas, cole slsw, cof-
fee. tea, milk, bread, and butter. Fol
dessert there was Neapolitan jelly with
whipped cream.
The menue was prepared, cooked, and
served by the women OF the church. The
price was 80 cents per diner. Late re-
ports showed that clearinghouse and
lunch-room receipts in the upper Four
teenth street section suffered badly dur
ing the evening.

PUBLIC LIBRARY ASKS
FOR INCREASED funds
Says Work Is Handicapped by made
quacy of Appropriations.

The trustees of the District Public Ii
orary. in their annual report, submitted to
the Commissioners yesterday, ask for a
Congressional appropriation OF S1o2, go for
the coming year They claim that the
library is handicapped by the inadequacy
of appropriations and that the working
force OF the library and the activities of
the institution suffer as a result.
1t is said that of thirty-one American
cities nearest to Washington in popula-
ton twenty-five receive larger appropria-
uons for the maintenance of the libraries.
The report says, in part:
Washingtons percentage of library
expenditures is far exceeded not only by
such cities as Buffalo. Minneapo Cleve-
land and Detroit, but by Kalamazoo,
Terre Haute, West Hoboken, Oshkosh.
Joplin and Perth Amboy
If the growth Of the library's useful
ness as measured by book circulation had
been as slow and as feeble as the in
crease Of library maintenance there would
be less ground Of complaint of made
quate support. But while the appropria-
tions for the library, originally based on
an inadequate foundation, have increased.
especially of late years, only slightly un-
til last years encouraging start in the
right direction. the library's work and
public usefulness have wonderfully ex-
panded.''

SOUTHWEST DEFENDED
BY Police CAPTAIN
Officer Explains Vice Referred to at
Hearing Applies to Limited Area.

Through some inadvertance Capt. WILL
iams seems to have been somewhat mis-
represented with respect to his testimony
before the Excise Commissioners The
conditions he complained Of were among
negroes in very small portion of the
southwest section"
This was the comment. Of Mai. Pullman
last night concerning the testimony Of
the captain of the Fourth precinct be-
fore the Excise Board on Wednesday, re-
ports OF which as published in the news
papers yesterday morning brought from
citizens and business men of Southwest
Washington a protest against the reputed
charges that vice was running rampant
in their section OF the city.
Il was only speaking of conditions
among the colored population. and of
those as they prevail in a very limited
area" said Capt. H. G. Williams last
night. In the years l have spent in
Southwest Washington have found con-
ditions there just as good as in any sec
tion; the same evils you might expect to
find in any community. My testimony
before the board was not that the saloons
were the cause of these conditions, but
that conditions needed improvement in a
particular neighborhood. and my expert
ence had shown me that conditions in a
neighborhood invariably improved when
saloons were removed
Numerous citizen bodies and prominent
residents of South Washington yester-
day protested against charges of vice
being imputed to that section Martin
Wiegand, lumber dealer and prominent in
civic and German circles, yesterday said :
Il have been living. in this section of
Washington thirty-five years and at pres
Ient am of the opinion 1t is as clean as
any other section OF Washington. There
may be isloated cases OF vice. but from
Observations made at all hours, 1 am con-
vinced It is as moral as others"
A round-robin letter protest, signed by
five teachers in southwest schools, yester-
day read:
I'VE have lived and taught in South
Washington all our life. and are glad to
state that we have never seen. nor in
any way been cognizant OF any fact, that
would lead US to believe or suspect the
existence of any such district
The letter was signed by Elizabeth J.
Riley, Margaret Z. Garrett, Mary c.
Johnson, Victoria V. Trook and Jeanette
Cohen.
