Out Regulations With Ref
erence to Fireworks.

In an order issued today by Major

structed to enforce the regulations in
regard to the exploding of fireworks.
Following is the majors order:
A special permit must be obtained

in part, as follows, and prohibits also
the discharge of firearms, cannons
or torpedoes, which are included un-
der the general term fireworks or
noise-making explosives.
No fireworks, squib or other FIRE
works, nor noisemaking explosives of
any kind that shall be sold and de-
livered, discharged or set of within
the city of Washington. or in the
morely densely populated portion OF
said District, without special permit
from the Commissioners, ID. c.
There is no ban on the sale or use
of sparklers. While this fireworl is
supposed to be harmless, many acci-
dents have been caused in various
cities by children sticking them into
one another's hair or clothing, and
in a number OF. cases children have
been set on fire by these sparklers.
causing death.
The police, therefore, will caution
children against placing even this ap-
parently harmless article too close to
anything which may be ignIted.
Enforce the safe and sane Fourth
regulations and prevent accidents
which often result in needless injury
and possible loss of life.

sTUDEBAKER RALLY.

One satisfactory feature of the op-

Such a rumor was spread before the

sons were given for the advance, the
most plausible being that the quar-

will be very satisfactory.
Studebaker is known to be enjoying

some to light regarding the manipu-
lation OF a stock that had a most
mysterious' break from over $50 a

II appears that the decline was
not due as much to business condi-
tions as to the personal pique of a
prominent operator. The brokers in
terested in this issue became friendly
with this operator. and induced him
to enter a pool when the stock was
selling at so.
The operator was to make the
market. but, after purchasing about

the ancient village of Bethlehem in
Palestine have been selected as the
setting for a pageant of Old Tesla
ment times which is to be staged this
summer to raise funds for the starry

The play will be the drama of Da-
vid and the actors for the most part
will be the country folk Of neighbor-
ing farming communities, many of
whom have a strong dramatic in
strict. Miss Flora White of this
town is directing the production.
The drama portraying some of the
tragic events which had their origin
in the mental disorder of King Saul
is to be enacted in the outskirts of a
deep wood bordering an open pasture.
The scene is just outside the gates of
Bethlehem near which Saul had
pitched his tent and encamped his
army. The walls of Bethlehem and
the pavilion of Saul are to be located
on the extreme right Of the natural
amphitheatre which forms the stage.
On the extreme left is the wilder
country of the Philistines and the
