O'Dea Case Historx.
In the O'Dea matter the order to
show cause was obtained before Su-
preme Court Justice Geigerich by
Martin Conboy. of the firm OF
Griggs, Baldwin and Conboy, rep
resenting John A. Mccarthy. a con-
tractor, with whom Tammany
Leader Charles F. Murphy is al
legged to have been associated in
business up TO year and six
months ago.
Miss ODea was summoned before
the committee as secretary and
treasurer of the organization to
produce certain books and papers
In the application to be argued
Mr.. Conboy based his plea on the
ground that Miss O'Dea is not an
officer. but Is a paid employe. and
that this method of obtaining the
books is not legal and constitutes
unusual search and seizure without
due process of law and is a viola
ton of the State and Federal con-
stitution.
The Lockwood committee intends
to continue the probe into build
ing affairs at its hearing on Tues
day and "Wednesday of this week.

Loew's Palace-Ethel Clayton I
- .sSfns of Rosanne.-

Loew's Palace-Ethel Clayton In
- f. ..Sins Of RosaHne."-
A rare and remarkable photoplay
combination is offered at Loew's
Palace Theater this week. where
Ethel Clayton began a weeks run
yesterday as the featured star OF
Sins of Rosanne," based on Cynthia
Stockley's famous story. "Rosann-
Ozanne. Not only is the story one
of the most profound appeal and ro-
mantle richness, but II reveals, in it's
first Washington appearance, Mis-.
Ethel Clayton in role than whicn
she has had nothing .finer in many
months.
Sins of Rosanne'' Is a brilliant
and powerful mystery romance, laid
in the diamond fields of South
Africa. and backgrounded against
the opulent metropolis of the region,
Kimberley. 1t concerns a young girl
who was nursed during childhood
by Malay woman. who impaired a
passionate fondness for Jewels in
the mind of the girl.
The nurse, at the same time. DOS
sessed the girl with a strange power
of evil over those whom she might
hate and as the story develops, this
girl, portrayed by Ethel Clayton. Is
seen welding her evil power in a
sad and recbless pursuit of Jewels
she does not even own. On the
brink of what is fast becoming a
criminal career, the first great love
of her life dawns.
Passionately adoring the young
Englishman to- whom she has given
her heart, the girl slowly becomes
aware that her great love for. the
Englishman is pervading her entire
nature. The gradual rehabilitation
of this beautiful girl through the
medium of love makes a story of
the most poignant suspense and
haunting tenderness. Jack Holt,
Fred Malatesta and Grace Morse
have exceptional roles. The latest
Mack Sennett comedy hit, "A Young
Mans Fancy" holds high place on
the program. The Pathe news pic
lures. Topical Tips and other screen
features are seen. The Palace SYM

Important to Mothers
Learning About Nitrogen.

Recent experiments with the alpha
ray have led to the discovery, says the
English Mechanic and World of Sci
encc, that nitrogen, which for a cen
tury and hnlf has been regarded
as an element. may not be an element
at all, but n compound of hydrogen and
helium. 1t is an Interesting cOinci-
dence that Doctor Dalton. according
to the now accepted account, was led
to his theory of the atomic structure
of matter by II study of the physical
properties of the atmosphere. Sir
Ernest rutherford, by experiments on
the same gases, now sees in each OF
Dalton'S atoms of nitrogen an atomic
system in which two distinct elements
play a part, and nitrogen itself ap-
parently is to disappear as an element

In painting the post with creosote or

insure deep penetration Of the creosote

His Memory Faulty.

A good working memory is no trick,
