ance Mr.. Grant appeared with oroViiia
lovely doll, with a complete ward-

were made by Miss Brinnon's pupils
and were exceptionally clever. Mr.
Grant however, was the cleyerest OF
all. He kept the audience laughing
from the start to the finish OF his act
and sold "Orovilla" to Mr.. c. A. Pow
ell for twenty-five dollars. At the con-
clusion of Mr.. Grants amusing auction
the high school rendered one-act
play entitled "A Scheme that Failed.
Those who saw it tell us that 1t was
well done and We sincerely hope that
everyone enjoyed it but-the cast fear
that they made some awful mistakes
1t is lucky that the audience can not
always see these mistakes or see the
leading man whom they thought so
wonderful, shaking like leaf before
he comes on.

1.-TWO misstatements were made bv
NJ A. Leese at the meeting of the
directors of the Chamber of Commerce
last night. According to the morning
papers, Leese said at the meeting that
80 per cent of the efforts of the ma
tionai press committee are devoted to
that the national press committee was
opposed to the plan to secure national
representation for the District through
a constitutional amendment. Both
statements are base calumnies.
about so per cent of the activities
of the national press committee are
devoted to fighting foes of Dist rict
suffrage; 40 per cent is devoted to
the campaign to enfrancfiise the vote
less people of Washington and the
other 10 per cent to struggling along
with the financial affairs of the com.
mittee.
1.-THE committee is still striving for
the constitutional amendment, but we
have been informed by two polls of
the last session Of Congress that Com
gress will not allow a constitutional
amendment at this time, but is will
ing to grant some sort OF local suf.
frape Therefore, while we have mt
abandoned the fight for the eonstitu-
tional am ndment, we are devoting all
our interest at this time to securing
