YANKEE FRIEND

San Francisco. Cal, April 15.--
General Gregorie Semenoff, for
mer ataman of the Cossacks
whose financial entanglements led
him to New York jail, was term
ed friend Of the American troops
in Siberia, in a statement publish
ed in the Chronicle today by David
HI. Barrows. president OF the Uni
yerslty OF California. President
Barrows was colonel Of the Fifty
seventh infantry when that regi-
ment guarded railroad at Chita,
Siberia, where there was clash
between Semenoff's men and an
American outpost in the summer
os 1918.
The educator said, according to
the Chronicle, General Semenoff

death Is Jest, but he was the
friend of the American troops In
Siberia, and Just now is much mis-
understood"
Great Fighting Leader.
The interview quotes DR.. Bar
rows as saying that Semenoff was
zone Of the greatest fighting lead
ers In the world, man absolute
ly without fear" On one occa
sion, according to the statement,
DIR. Barrows saw the Cossack lead
er wounded four times by gren-
ades In an engagement with the
bolsheviki. The charge that Sem
enoff permitted American troops
to be murdered was declared due
to Misunderstanding resulting
from the bitter fued between
Semenoff and Admiral Kolchak.
THE Americans held the west
ern sector" added the interview,
"and 1t was necessary for Sem
enoff to send train OF troops
across the road guarded by Uncle |
Sans troops. Colonel Morrow,
who with the others recognized |
Kolchak as commander. requested
Semenoff first to get Kolchak's
approval. Semenoff refused. His
men were sent on and were stop

TRUE COLONIAL SPIRIT EXPRESSED
IN THIS SIX-ROOM HOME

1t would be hard to plan a house
with q more comfortable and con-
venient layout, and a more attrac-
tive exterior, that could be built as
economically as this pretty six-room
home. The true spirit Of colonial
architecture is expressed.
The overall dimensions are 20 feet
by 20 feet. This will fit an ordinary
lot. and still leave space for lawn
and garden. No expensive breaks
are present in wall-lines or roof
lines and yet n doesn't get the
effect of a plain box.
Attractive Entrances
Colonial entrances are far-famed
for their beauty. and this one has all
the charm of slender columns, arched
hood, well-proportioned and dignified
door and s%idelights. and pleasing fan
light transom. Shutters of contrast
ing color and windows with small
panes lend interest to the exterior.
Original design in the chimneys.
the bit of trellis work about the
hospitable. yet secluded porch. are
also points that put a house like this
ahead Of the Ordinary" class.
Those who do not admire the US
ual Colonial roof-the gabled roof
with wide side toward the front. and
very narrow cornice-will like this
hip root, with q moderate overhang.
A small entrance hall is provided.
The main stair faces this entrance.
Doors at right and left open into
living room and dining room respec-
lively. One very interesting feature
of the living room is a nook formed
by q jog in the long inside wall. 1t
is just opposite the homelike fire.
place, and offers all sorts of posi-
bilities for furniture arrangement.
Runs Depth OF House
The room extends the full depth
of the house. and has outside OPEN
fngs on three sides, including a door
to the porch. at one side of porch.
At each side Of the window looking
GU. toward the real garden there is
a built-in bookcase. Between them,
under the window. a seat with hing
ed top serves the double purpose of
a pleasant reading nook and a handy
place for keeping things.
The dining room is IL feet by IL
feet 6 inches. An unusual shape is
effected by cutting off two corners.
one by a corner china closet and the
other by a fireplace.
Household efficiency has been ap-
piled to the planning of the kitchen.

among various grades, thus overcom-
ing the possibility that an additional
OFFICER" list would be created requiring
tho elimination Of some distinguished
oifcers whose records make them par
, ticularly valuable to the service.
The committee acted after it had
hoard Maj Gen. J. G. Harbord. deputy
calef of staff. who declared the pres
ent unfortunate legislation was n
result of misunderstanding s to the
recommendations of the department.
Provisions OF the Bill.
The Anthony bill provides a mini
mum elimination of $50 officers from
the Army. to bring the total to 1900.
that in case of demotion officers shall
continue to receive the same pay and
allowances AS they received in their
present grade,
Gen. Harbord said either this
measure or that sponsored by Repre-
sentative Curry. republican, Cali
fornla, would be a decided improve
ment on the present law. by obviating
the necessity of retiring a great num-
ber of higher officers and replacing
them with new officers. and the ex-
pense of transportation of retired
officers ordered to their homes.
Hnrbord Pleads for Measure.
In response to questions by mem
bers of Congress. Gen. Harbord point
ed out that the principal class of of
ficers to be affected by elimination
are those appointed from the emer-
gency service. The first training
camps OF 1917 sought young men for
the command of compa MES. he said,
while later camps endeayored to Sc
cure older men, many of whom now
find themselves junior in rank to
many officers who are their junior in
years. He said that OF 9S5 Junior
captains whom the Anthony bill would
denote. all but 113 are appointments
from the emergency Service and av-
erage more than thirty years of age.
Gen. Harbord declared that to re-
tain large number of officers as ad-
ditionals would mean a dead stop for
promotions for a very long time, but
under the Anthony bill promotions,
although very much slowed up, would
begin again on January !. 1928 Rep
resentatives Curry and Anthony also
presented arguments to the commit
tee in favor Of amending the present
law.

Respect for Parks.

The protection Of parks from van.

seems to be q problem in New York.
The park commissioner Of that city
has appealed to the sehool teachers
and pupils, and also to the Parks and
Fairgrounds Association. for 90.
operation Sin maintaining our parks
in as good condition as possible 90 as
to afford the delights and pastimes
which all people may enjoy" New
York's park commissioner has writ
ten: 1.-THE public should always use
those lawns and grounds which are
thrown open for that purpose, and
should not enter upon or cross any
other lawns or grounds. Trees. shrub.
berry and other plants should never he
meddled with or touched. The school
children can be of immense help In
this matter. Each one OF them can
constitute himself or herself a police
man to see that there are no violations
of the rules which are made for the
protection of our parks"
The lawns and shrubbsry of Wash.
ingten parks do not suffer much from
vandalism. The public has been pretty
well educated In the rightful use of the
open spaces, and the park police are
alert and ready to put forth restrain.
ing hand when necessary. In the older
Washington there were many com.
plants of damage to the parks, and
that was at q time when the parks
were heavily and highly fenced. The
old-fashioned park fence gave way
years ago to the simple post and chain.
and this admonitory barrier has been
removed from nearly all the parks.
The Washington public is remarkably

Croker in National Politics.

Richard Croker always enjoyed him
self at democratic national conven-
tions. He was man of Importance
there, and met men Of importance
from other sections. New York's pref.
erence for the presidential nomination
occupied a. good deal Of attention in
the preliminary discussions. Who
could carry New York was a leading
question. and Tammany Hall was a
good deal Of democratic New York.
And yet there was a fly in the oint-
ment. Prominent democrats from
other sections, and particularly from
the south, who were always deferring
to New York in the matter of the can
didate, could not altogether conceal
their chagrin when brought in per-
sonal contact with him at finding such
a man as the Tammany leader so con-
spicuous in party councils while they
sat about patiently waiting decisions
and orders. This did net escape Mr..
Croker's attention. and at times. when
too little concealed.>it nettled him.
Such men, too. usually, mispro.
nounced his name. They addressed
him as "Crecker" until set right,
which they promptly were. Asked one
Of them upon being corrected: PRO
nounced as IL spelled C-r-ow-k-e-r?"
YES" replied the Tammany chief,
land that's a good way to put it, for,
according to my enemies, I'm as black
as that bird"
Mr.. Croker was not a speaker, and
to remedy the deficiency he was al
ways accompanied to conventions by
two orators. Bourke Cochran and Col.
John Fellows performed the oratarical
office for awhile, and then Mr., Cock
ran and Senator Tom Grady worked
together. They sat within range of
Mr.. Croker's eye, and at what he
thought the proper time he would
nod to one or the other. as il saying.
.,Now sail in, and let 'em have it"
Tammany oratory was feature of
such occasions. and at Chicago in 1882
