something different in lecture course

to compare old fashioned music with

who may be lively supporters of one

several seasons OF experience together

FORMER Dali REPRESENTATIVE
is SHOT RESISTING CAPTURE

Belfast, August Harry Boland,
formerly representative of the Dali
Eireann in the United States, is in a
critical condition in a Dublin hospital,
says a dispatch, as result of wounds
received in attempting to evade cap
ture yesterday by the National Army
troops.
Boland, the dispatch from Dublin
says, was wounded at Skerries, fish
ing town to the north cf Dublin.
Boland and a friend were spending
the weekend at the Grand Hotel, in
Skerries Yesterday morning at 2
o'clock troops surrounded the hostelry
and entered Boland-s room to arrest
him. In resisting arrest Boland drew
a revolver and during the scuffie that
followed, the message adds, he was
shot in the abdomen.
Boland's companion also was ar
rested. The incident caused great
commotion in the hotel, which was
crowded with visitors.
National Army troops operating on
the West Meath-Cavan border cap
tured 10 insurgents, whose leader,
Harry Killeavey, in charge of West
Meath Republicans, is alleged to have
issued the recent order that all men
in uniform should be shot on sight.
Among his companions, according to
the message received in Belfast, were
some of the prisoners who dramati-
cally escaped from the Dundalk Pris-
on last week.
A hunger strike on the part of three
of the men waiting fogging in the
Belfast Jail is delaying the punish
ment of the prisoners. Nine sentences
of this character have been imposed
recently in addition to long terms of
Imprisonment given several of the de-
PENDANTS for having revolvers or
bombs in their possession.

Radio Concert at Carlin's

HOrgan Roland Company Installing a
Large Receiving Set to Receive
Election Returns

The Horgan Roland Co., of Wash
ington are installing their large
radio set consisting of six stages of
amplification in the Office of Carlin.
Carlin and Hall the headquarters of
Swanson to receive the broadcasting
from Richmond of the election re-
turns.
The set will be in charge of two
Naval Radio experts Messrs. c. F..
Motto and f. L. Powell, who are at
tached to the Radio Laboratory at
the Navy Yards, and who are recog-
nized at two of the the greatest radio
men in the country.
These gentlemen are the inventors
of several important improvements in
the radio field.
The attempt to pick up the Rich
mond Station will be watched by all
radio fans in this section and Wash
ingtOn, because if successful it will
be the first time that Richmond has
been heard in this section.
The set installed is the most pow
erful ever operated in Alexandria

PLAYGROUND IS NOW ASSURED
LAWN PARTY ABIG SUCCESS

which has been aroused among the
people In fact, the affair was so
much of a success in this latter mat
ter that plans are already being
formed for another in the near fu-
ture.
Others to be thanked are the ones
who so kindly gave the use of their
cars in coming to and from town. The
committee also gave a vote of thanks
to the Alexandria Gazette for the
publicity, And not to be forgotten
are those who contributed the dainties
from the sale of which most of the
money was realized
Another feature of the evening was
the spirit with which the railroad men
enjoyed the affair. Several freight
trains came in and the crews were all
delighted to find that they could find
refreshments SO close at hand. After
having eaten their fill they expressed
their gratitude and asked that the
party be repeated soon.
At the bottom of all these festivities
and Announcements in the playground
situation Of Alexandria is H. A. Cen
try. agent for the Richmond, Freder-
icksburg and Potomac Railroad, who
has given permission that these
grounds be used as Fairgrounds and
for tennis courts provided only that
the people of Alexandria raised the
amount of money necessary to pay
the salary of a teacher to supervise
the play. Not enly did he make this
generous offer but ne has also been at
work day and night trying to raise
the money himself.
The committee is pleased beyond ex-
preston with the outcome and hopes
that in the near future they may be
able TO accomplish greater things for
Greater Alexandria" than those now
dreamed of.

sacre, in which at least 20 non-union
men were killed, Frank Harrington,
Illinois president, announced yester-
day.
"The very magnitude and stern
ness Of the agitation for the punish
meut of those involved in the riot
ing creates danger for innocent men,
said a statement issued over Mr.. Far
rington's signature.
Responsibility for failure to pre-
; vent the killings by union miners and
sympathizers on June p is placed
upon Sheriff Melvin Tharton, of Will

others missing and believed dead. This
estimate put the total casualties on
both side in killed, wounded and miss

Mr.. Duty said it was untrue that
that many were victims in the atfray.

the county" Mr.. Duty said.
Mr.. Duty explained that a number
Of wounded might have escaped his

"I have records of all men killed

those wounded, and these will be used

the county," Mr. Duty continued.
From rumors received from vari-
Gus sources, am of the opinion thss
enemies of the officials of William

that these persons were among those
wounded in the mine war shall exert
every influence of my office to punish
these persons. if l can definitely as

nomination of United States Sem
ator between Senator Claude A.
Swanson and former Governor
Westmoreland Davis.

majority. 1t is expected that the re-
turns will be known within an hour
after the polls close.
Reports received here from the
nearby points, indicate that Senator
Swanson will also carry the adjoin-
ing counties and in fact the entire
Eighth Congressional district.
The campaign here throughout
has been an unusually quiet and ac-
tive one. Senator Swanson did not
take the stump and only two
speeches have been made here, both
of which were in the interest of
Westmoreland Davis, one being
made Saturday night and one last
night, the speech last night being
made by Mr.. Davis.
Many office holders and others
in Washington who did
not get a chance to vote this morn
ing before leaving will not cast their
ballots until their return home late
this afternoon. The majority of
the women voters voted this morn
ing, and good sized woman's vote

SUMMER UNIFORMS
FOR co. NJ. BOYS
Alexandria Machine Gun Company
to Attend Camp of instruction
At Virginia Beach

Members of Co. an" 116th Virginia
National Guard, better known as the
Alexandria Machine Gun Company,
were issued summer uniforms at the
regular drill held in Armory Hall last
night. The issue of these uniforms is
in preparation for the summer camp
of instruction which the local com
pany will attend later in the month.
Captain Lawrence (. Gardner, COM
manding the company, states that he
has his company recruited up to near
ly full strength and that he will carry
with him to camp good represen-
tation of the membership of his COM
mand.
A guard has been maintained at
the hall for the past two weeks for
the purpose of protecting the govern
ment property should occasion arise.
Regular drill was impossible last
night on account of the political meet
ing which was held in the interest of
ex-governor Davis campaign for the
Senate and therefore the time was
consumed in the issuing of uniforms
and the getting together of equip
ment. The company will, on August
10, leave for a two weeks encamp-
ment att Virginia Beach along with
the other National Guard Companies
of the State,
Captain Gardner has been gather
ing in the "slackerS" for the past
several weeks and has succeeded in
finding most of the men assigned to
his command who have not been in
regular drill attendance for the past
six months. He has imposed a pun
ishment on several of these men and
stated that they are ready to go to
camp.

teacher within the course of the next
two weeks as a result Of the success
of the lawn party given on the Union
Station grounds last night The lawn
was beautifully decorated and the
crowd which gathered was a most
gratifying sight to the ladies who had
worked so untiringly for the success
of the affair.
A neat sum was realized from the
sale of ice cream. cake, candy and hot
dogs. il is understood. More than 400
people thronged the grounds and list
ened to the concert given by the Clti-
zenS' Band and then seemed TO liter

making the affair a huge success. Mrs.
Grace Bernard and Mrs. Dennis had
the feature of the evening under their
special care.-the hot dog stand and
the committee wishes to thank them
for the work they did:
The lawn was beautifully laid out,
thanks for this is due Mr.. Baker, OF
Swans. and Mr.. Feldtkeller, of the

wish to express their thanks include
the Salvation Army for tables, Cltl-
2enS' Band for the concert and parade,
Wheauey'S and Demaine's for chairs
and 90 all others who in any way
helped to stage the party, whether Ill
rect'y or indirectly.
With the money realized from tins
party, the association feels justified
IN going ahead with its plans and open

be put in shape The tennis courts
are to become reality and those who
now use the courts in Washington and
Braddock will no longer have to do so
of necessity.
The ladies who had prominent plac-

of the opinion that the success of this
