reason for his leaving was that it was
the opinion of a majority Of the mem
bers Of the county committee that the

Of the county had been so depleted by
enlistments and CONSUMPTION for the
army that the committee was not justi-
fed in employing a secretary to. devote
his whole time to the work.

tinued. and plans for the continuance
are being arranged by State County
Secretary Piper. to be presented to the

GET DOWN TO REAL WORK
Series of Conferences Held Be-
tween Committee Chairmen
and Lawmakers.

With assurances from many mem
tee that they would use their best ef-
forts toward securing from Congress
$35, 300 appropriation to meet a part
OF the expenses of the coming inaug-
ural ceremonies, the inaugural COM
mittee today got down to real work.
The last of the preliminary work
has been finished, and the task of
making the event the most interest
ing and elaborate in years, Is now
actually under way.
Following a series OF conferences
at the Capitol between Col. Robert N.
Harper, chairman of the inaugural
committee, and the chairmen of sew
eral subcommittee, and certain Sena-
tors and Congressman, the inaugural
chairman announced today that he
has no doubt but that the requested
$4,000 will be appropriated by Con-
gress with little, IL any, opposition.
All Are Friendly.
Every person. with whom we dis
cussed the question:" Colonel Harper
said, Showed his friendliness. We
anticipate no opposition when the
bill authorizing the appropriation Is
introduced"
The committee at first feared that
Congress might object to the $4,000
additional asked this year. Four
years ago, only 900 was appropri-
ated. Colonel Harper and his associ-
ates told the Senators of the increase
in the cost of materials of various
kinds, and that the $4,000 OF four
years ago would be about two-thirds
enough to cover the Governments
part Of the expenses this year.
Decision on Fireworks.
Chairman Harry King, of the COM
mittee on fireworks, again called on
the members OF his committee today,
and urged them to be present at
meeting at the New willard next
Monday night.
Exactly how much money will be
spent on fireworks has not yet been
The inaugural committee voted to
5000, but stipulated that
Colonel Harper and Mr.. King hold q

cided whether all of this shall be ex-

WOULDPARK BOTH
SIDES OF POTOMAC
Enthusiast Wants U. S. to Own
Banks From Great Falls to
Mt. Vernon.

Creation OF a riverside national
park to extend from Mt. Vernon to
Great Falls on both sides of the Po-
tomac was urged upon the national
parks conference at the National MI
scum this morning by A. B. Costle-
man, Washington park enthusiast.
Mr.. Csstleman declared that such q
project presented a rare opportunity
for The exercise OF private philan-
thropy.
If comparatively small sum could
be collected to start such a project,
he said it was probable the Federal
Government would meet the idea half
way. financially.
"A fund also should be started" he
declared, "for the erection of a bridge
below the falls, which would afford
an adequate view of, the scenery.
This boulevard would connect high.
ways in Maryland and Virginia,
thereby making accessible the beau.
ties OF this almost undeveloped re-
gion."
Plans OF the War Department are
believed to call for a large basin in
the Potomac about nine miles below
the falls, 1t was said, which probably
would submerge about $1,000 acres

PLAYED BEFORE ROYALTY
Renee FIorigny,PIanIst, Has Charm.
ed European Relgnlns Families.

Playing. for royalty, an ambition Of
all musicians who court the applause
Of those presumably surfeited with
all the good things of life, is an aim
which has probably been realized more
often by Renee Florigny, the French
concert pianist playing at Keith's this
week, than any other woman artist.
Referred to by musical authorities
as the feminine Paderewski, Mile.
Florigny has not only made an en-
viable reputation for herself in Eu-
rope but since her arrival in this
country has become one of the most
popular of concert pianists.
Mile. Florigny has played for the
King of Spain, King Victor Emanuel
of Italy, former. President FallieEes of
France and the Khedive of Egypt. She
made her debut in this country at
the Palace Theater in New York and
her American success was imEe-
diately assured. She afterwards
played the Orpheum circuit and is at
present on an extensive vaudeville
tour.
