FALL KILLS CAPTAIN
heroplane Crash at Ball Game Also
Injuries Major Gearhart

Indianapolis. June Capt. Edwin
Webb was killed and Major Guy l..
Gearhart was injured when an aero
plane in which they were flying fell
yesterday afternoon.
Major Gearhart, who is in conf
mand of the United States aviation
repair depot here, will recover.
The accident occurred in the pres
ence of 1000 persons at ball game
between teams of the aviation school.
Capt. Webb and Major Gearhart were
dropping baseballs with banners at
tached. Two balls dropped earlier
had caught in the controls and the
machine refused to respond. 1t
plunged to the earth and Capt. Webb
was crushed by the motor.
Major Gearhart was in the rear
seat. "They got me that time" he
remarked as soldiers rushed him to

REFLECTION ON CONGRESSMEN

Some one has said that the hand
that is thrust into every hole will
somewhere find snake to bite it.
A Washington paper yesterday
printed with much display an allega-
ton that many empty whisky bottles
had been found in and near rooms
occupied by Congressman in the
House Office Building opposite the
Capitol. It was farther alleged that
the congressman who occupied the
rooms voted dry in REGENTS contests
in the House.
Another paper of the Capital City
prints today an article which implies
that the bottles were placed where
found either by practical joker or
some malicious person. One cotem-
porary asks: Who was the "wet" IN
dividual that laboriously collected %
ancient and empty whisky bottles and
placed one each at the doors of 20
Offices of Representatives. in the House
Office Building where the janitor
couldn't help but stumble, over them?
And who among the members Of the
House. if they see fit to indulge IN
alcoholic spirits, are fools enough to
advertise their failing at time wher
prohibition is on US. everyone?
The 80 "dcad soldiers" alleged to
have been collected by the janitor OF
the House Office Building on his Sun
day rounds were placed purposely, it
seems. at the doors Of Representatives
VIII, voted to keep the prohibition
rider in the 100000 agricultural
appropriation bill.
Rev. E. C. Dinwiddie, leading pro-
hibitionist, not only attributes this
pitiful joke to an abortive attempt to
discredit the work of the "dry" elc-
ment in Congress for the nation as a
whole, but characterizes it as an at
tempt to forestall the attempts to
make Washington "bonc dry"
Several Representatives announced
that they will demand an investiga-
ton.
The joke is too crude to be taken
seriously.
Certain Representatives will today
hold an Indignation meeting. Mean
while squad of Secret Service men
will scour Washington looking for
the person or persons who found time
hanging heavy on their hands and
took to collecting souvenirs.

GERMANy'S STRUGGLE

Why is it that the French nation
is calm and confident, although the
enemy is at the Marine? asks the
Washington Post, who also answers
the question.
France. Great Britain, Italy and
America have taken Germany's meas
ure and know that the present strug-
giles are evidence of weakness and not
of strength. The war is going
against Germany in matters Of vast
and irresistible influence, far trans
cending in Importance and effect anv
single battle that has ever been
fought. The trampling of the Ger
man hordes at the Marine strikes the
superficial mind as terribly menacing
to the allies. The unseen influences
that arc bearing Germany down to
death are not those that impress the
ear and eye.
The end Of the war is not near, IN =
count Of days or weeks, but it is
brought nearer by Germany's eXer-
tions, which work for her earlier de-
feat.
Germany is in the sere and yellow
leaf as a military power. This is the
carefully formed conviction of thor
ouGhlv informed and impartially de-
tachcd neutral military experts, CO.
;nciding with the absolute knowledge
OF the allied governments.
The military clique that is hurry
ing the German empire to destruction
is now making the last throw of the
dice Of war. The German armies must
either defeat France, Great Britain.
Italy and The United States within 2
few weeks CT the plumber gained in
four years of murderous operations
against small nations will be lost and
the German empire lost with it.
Hchcnzol!erm and Hapsburg go
down. They are already in the rapids.
They struggle vigorously, bat in that
enormous current. among those fang
ed and Jagged rocks. under the tenn
pest of the worlds wrath. they cannot
survive.

WORK OF THE GRAND JURY

The grand jury met again today
for the purpose of preparing their
report upon the sanitary condition o.
the city and to present suggestions
for it's betterment.
The members last, week made an
inspection Of the streets and alleys III
various sections, and in number o.
cases, they found conditions unsatis-
factory. Pools of water, putrid AMI
unsightly, were found upon property,
while defective drainage was in evi.
dence in many places. Cuthouses
were also found which need immed
late attention
In most cases the members of the
police force have previously been on
the job, and they notified different
persons if conditions were not i'm
proved within reasonable time war
rants would be procured and those re-
sponsible hailed before the Police
Court. Some have complied with the
orders. but others have not and war.
rants have been prepared for the de-
.linouents. Those interested still have
an opportunity to escape being ar
raigned by eliminating nuisances At
once. Otherwise they will be made
to face the court and pay the penalty
for their unconcern.
During the past rev weeks men,

WARNS AGAINST TAKERS
Say Half Gospel Mission Workers Are
frauds.

Philadelphia, June 3.-The Cham
her of Commerce yesterday issued
warning to the public against fake
Gospel Mission workers, who are 60
ing around the city collecting from
charitable and religious people. The
warning says:
philadelphia is supporting at least
savelrty Gospel Missions The ma
iority are one man organizations, few
OF them being controlled by respon-
sible board of managers. The super
irtendents, men or women. are usually
persons called ~ the Spirit to go

the curcast and the dew,,fallcn. U.s.
ually Tie only qualification for this
mission in life are a glib tongue,
hold front and an uncomfortable aver
sion coward work. Some mission
workers are sincere, some are rellg-
ious .anatics and some are dishonest.
Gan exhaustive investigation OF
forty three Gospel Missions was made
tx the Charities and Welfare Bureau.
Three Or four of the missions are eX-
cellent, and havn been Endorsed by
the committee. from six no definite
information was obtained, fourteen
were doing fairly commendahle work,
but twenty-five, Or SO per cent, OF the
total number in ysstigated, were do
ing work that was practically worth
less, and, in soma cases, vicious.
at was discovered that number
of the superintendent of these TWEEN
ty-three missions were mon of ques-
tionable character. who were in the
business for financial gain. About
some it was SAID that they were jail
birds, thieves AMI drug fiends. Many
of the men have been driven out from
city to city by The police authorities,
and have come to reap their harvest
in Philadelphia as long "a conditions
permit. In three cases the addresses
given by solicitors for missions were
false, and no one had ever heard of
such an organization.
"a number Of the superintendent
cyacted a large amount of work from
the unfortunates who applied for shell
ter, and sold the productc of their
labor without adequate compensation.
Can Philadelphia afford to be duped
and victimized by such set of ras-
Gals? So many of the Gospel Mis-
sions are false and dangerous that the
Charities and Welfare Committee
most earnestly urges all persons So
licited by Gospel Missions TO refer to
the bureau for accurate information"

POLES READY TO FIGHT

Fifteen Thousand Recruited in United
States are to Join in Battle To-
morrow
Washington, June 3.-The United
States viii have a new aid in the bat
tie line in France tomorrow. lnfornna-
ton was received in Washington last
night that tomorrow is the date
chosen for the Polish army in Franco

The American Poles who go into ac-

Of the army was formally recognized

fray between two negroes at Gum.
Springs, Fairfax county, yesterday is
given elsewhere IN The Gazette. Two
negroes became involved n a diff-
Guilty. According to usage among this
species of the genus homo, each car :.
ried a pistol. One shot at the other.
but the ball went wild. The man who
was being used as target drew h'a
pistol and shot and killed his adj
versary.
Believing he had acted in self-de.
Tense, the slayer made his way to the
station house and delivered himself to
the police. AS the day was closing
he begged earnestly that another man
be placed in the cell with him, as he
could not endure the thought OF be-
ing left alone in the night time. His
request was granted and another ne
gro, charged with misdemea1lor, was
locked Up with him.
Shedding human blood is a crime for
which the slayer suffers as long as he
lives. Whether the killing is an act
of self-defense or one of wilful MUIR
der, the consequences are the same
The blood will not out. It becomes
luminous at night, when the con-
science is more assertivc than ever
and the sufferer is alone.
The descendants of Cain, who slew
his brother in religious dispute, are
always in the world. The blood OF
Abel cried from the ground, and ne
became fugitive upon the face OF
the earth. 1t has ever been SO.

STRIKES AND, THE WAR

The railroad strike at Alexandria
few days ago was most unfortunate
circumstances, says the Richmond VIZ
einian. AS every one knows, the raii>
roads are now in the hands o. the
government, and q board on railroad
wages and working conditions has
been appointed. The duties of this
board are to sear all cases wherein
any group of employees may set torth
their complaint. Distinguished labor
leaders are members of this board,
and the entire personnel has been re-
earded as satisfactory to, labor
throughout the country.
The strikers were reminded by d.
rector General McAdoo that the gov
eminent cannot be coerced-or 1ntln'-
dated by any Of its employees, ana
this seems to have been all that was
necessary to put an end to this strike
Our contemporary says further: Inc
government VI lille SiheSN
through the opinions of its highest
courts recognizes the right Of men t.
form themselves into associations FOL
their mutual protection against the sell
fish employer, and to carry out by mu-
tual agreement, other than oy vlo-
lence. all such regulations as may
promote the ends of justice.
But in time Of war, when the gov
eminent has the power to conscript
the services of any man for any l'ne
of work it is inconceivable that any
BODY of employees should dare to or
qanize walk out" while under the
employment of the military establish
ment of the country. If the condl-
lions or the wages were unfair in the
minds of the employees. their recourse
was to the board appointed to adjust
these things.
