Hell Roaring Jake" Dead at San
Diego, Had Picturesque Career in
Army-Faced Court-Martial.

The death of Brig. Gen. Hurd Smith,
retired, at San Diego, Cal, Friday
brought to Army officers recollections
of the picturesque career of the old
fighter who became celebrated in the
Philippine campaigns as Hell Roaring
jake p
Gen. Smith waged a campaign to
clear Samar of Guerrillas that even
tually brought him before a court
martial and drew the denunciation of
many civilians who were astounded at
the severity of the measures. But it
cleared out the nests of outlaws, who
had kept the province in continual
state of instruction. and received the
hearty approval of fellow officers who
knew the problem.
The sobriquet Hell Roaring Jake"
was one of the national phrases during
the Philippine wars.

WAR KILLS HIS ENTIRE FAMILY:

To have had his entire family-his

the experience today of Herbert w
Owen, recently appointed song leader
ut Key West barracks and at Forts De

training camp activities of the War
and Navy departments.
Mr.. Owens two sons and son-in-law
were killed in action on the western

KNITTING BEES NET TIDY
SUMS FOR THE RED CROSS

Here's new departure in knitting
bees. They bring together o6ngenial
friends, get out the goods for SILVER
ing soldiers, and. incidentally. make
money with which the Red Cross can
buy more materials for persistent Pc.
nelopes. The scheme has been tried out
successfully in several small cities of
the United, and, doubtless. will soon
make it's debut here in the National
Capital
The idea, briefly. is this. A woman
with good big sitting or drawing
room invites a dozen of her personal
friends for an afternoons knitting and
charges them a quarter each as an ad-
mission fee Each of these dozen guar
antees to ask later eight of her per-
sonal friends to similar party, charg-
ing them the same price. The original
hostess may not know any of this sec
ond brigade at all, except her original
twelve guests.
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1918-03-03

Then each individual in these groups
of eight gives knitting soiree for four
at the same rate. Finally each of the
foursomes gives coy little party for
two, the whole thing then being
brought to a close. 1t isn't like the
endless chain" scheme given so much
prominence at the time of the Spanish
war, for this Chain" possesses the
great advantage of stopping somewhere
short of the realms permeated only by
calculus.
Now take your pen and pencil and fig
ure how much the Red Cross gets. 1t
gets $3.50. No, that's wrong; start
over again. Aha! That's better; it gets
S1.0S2. What, wrong again? You say
it gets $74s? Well, maybe you're right.
Anyhow, it gets a good hunk of coin,
and if the parties are once tried out.
and each hostess will forward financial
returns to her Immediately preceding
hostess, the original party giver can
Aactually count it, and, whatever it is,
there it is.
