ENGLISH TO COMRADES
Former Presidents Son to Instruct
Naturalized Foreigners at
Camp Asaph.

One of the many interesting Incidents
happening every day at the army camps
around Washington came to light when
a request for a number of text books
on English was filed at the Washing
ton Y. M. c. A. Office by Secretary
Hardy, in charge Of the Y. NJ C. A. at
Camp Asaph, Va.
Several naturalized foreigners had
made inquiry at the Y. NJ. C. A. build
ing there about training in English,
and an inquiry developed that quite a
number of the men felt the need Of
training In that language. The need
arose for a teacher to take charge of
the class. and Charles P. Taft, I'd, Soc
ond son Of former President Taft, who
Is private at the camp. volunteered
to assume the task. A large number
of men have enrolled.

Game of ''Skin."

Two men and one woman. all colored.
were lodged in the District Jail late yes
terday afternoon, having been sent
there to await a grand jury investiga-
ton of the slaying of Samuel Seweh,
also colored in Syphax court southwest
early Sunday night. They were William
Jackson, William Bird and Sarah Will
liams, who says her friends know her
better as Bertha Hill"
Testimony at the inquest gave the
coroner and jury an idea of the doings
in the South Washington court Sunday
night, where the ever-ready pistol
played an important part in the gath
ering. There was a game of skin
assembled in the Williams womans
house. and Sarah. 1t was testified. cut
the game"
Did 1 understand that she cut the
cards?" inquired Coroner hewitt.
Not the cards." explained Assistant
United States Attorney Archer, but the
game; taking the rakeoff."
"Jack Rags" Sends for "Baby."
Then it developed that William Jack
son, known among his associates as
Jack Rags" had in a coat pocket that
rested on his lap what he termed
baby" and Will Bird told the jury
house for his baby" explaining that
he meant his gun"
There was the usual dispute about
the game. it was testified. but that was
settled and member of the party was
sent for a bottle of liquor. 1t was Sun
day night, but he got the whisky just
the same, and when the game was
about finished Bird announced that Will
Jackson was not the only man in the
party who had a baby" calling upon
Sarah to produce the one for which he
had sent her.
Sarah drew the weapon from the
bosom Of her dress and witnesses said
it was discharged Detective Burlin-
game suggested that that shot killed
Sam Sewell. Sarah denied that she had
handled the pistol. but the testimony of
all her friends was to the contrary.
Jackson admitted to the jury that he
discharged his weapon. He pointed 1t
under the table, he said, suggesting to
the police that he probably shot Sarah
Williams. who received a wound in her
right leg. The jury referred the entire
shooting to the grand jury, and that
body will determine which particular
member or members of the trio should
have to stand trial for Sewelrs death.

SPRAY POTATOES TO
AVOID LATE BLIGHT
Prompt Spraying With Bordeaux
Mixture will In Most Cases
Be Found Effective.


ment Of Agriculture.)
Potato late blight, fungous disease.
capable OF causing enormous destruc-
ton, has appeared in several states
from Maine to New Jersey and West
Virginia, according to the United
states department of agriculture. The
blight occurred early this year and re-
ports show that 1t IL more prevalent
than usual. While in some fields the
blight is already beyond control.
prompt spraying with bordeaux mix
ture will in most cases still be effec:
tive. the specialists advise. Unless po-
tato growers spray thoroughly with
bordeaux mixture they fear that the
large potato crop that has been prom
lsed will not be realized, as late blight,
II uncontrolled, Is capable Of reducing
the national crop at the rate Of 2,00O.-
700 bushels per day.
To produce a large crop the tops
must be kept healthy till frost as the
tubers increase in size most rapidly
during the last weeks Of the season.
The late blight kills the tops and
causes the tubers to rot In the ground.
The blight starts in few centers in
the field where diseased potatoes were
planted. Brown spots develop on the
leaves and a whitish mildew appears
on their under side. Frequent rains
and warm, muggy weather furnish
ideal conditions for the development Of
the blight under which the foliage
blights rapidly, the leaves hang black
ened and dead and the tubers begin to
rot. Dry and hot weather on the 9th
er hand tends to check the progress Of
the blight but growers should spray
Immediately and not trust their crops
entirely to Improvement in weather
conditions.
AS an effective preventive of late
blight bordeaux mixture has proved
its value for rs years. Every grower
from Maine to Michigan and south to
Virginia is urged to spray at once
and repeatedly.

Prepare the copper sulphate by sus-
pending'it in gunny sack just below

three or four hours. remove the sack
and stir into the barrel enough addi-

Prepare the lime by shaking 1t slow

ter to make exactly rs gallons OF
lime milk. Stir thoroughly.
Pour the two Ingredients together
into another barrel, or better directly
into the spray tank, II 1t will hold so
gallons. It IL highly important to stir
the mixture very thoroughly and to
strain both Ingredients before they are
combined, as otherwise ciogging Of the
spray nozzles might result. Use cop
