Eighteen thousand bottles OF
potent beer are being converted into
dead soldiers on the south end Of
the Highway Bridge today by q
wrecking crew of five laborerss who
are being held to their lawful duty
by deputies from the United States
marshal's office.
While hundreds of District and
Virginia residents gaze on in despair,
the laborers are giving each bottle

served that it is taking quite a knock
to break one and send the illegal
crew into the murlxy waters under
the Highway Bridge.

While no publicity had been

destruction of the unusual quantity
of real beer, there were hundreds
present to watch the rites.
The District Attorneys office and
the prohibition unit were represent
ed by officials as well as z. j.

It was revealed today at the
United States Marshals office that
had it not been for the stubborn
ness OF the prohibition officials that
the beer would have been poured
out of the bottles into the river in
stead of each broken to bits by a
blunt instrument. If the beer had
been poured out, it Is said, the
salvage obtained from the bottles,
which had no name blown in them.
would have financed the cost Of the
destruction Of the beer.
The prohibition officials, however,
1t is understood. maintained that
under the court order both the bottles
and beer should be destroyed.
All of the beer dumped into the
river today is of one lot which was
confiscated in the railroad yards,
being sent here as a shipment to an
unnamed party.

RUFFO
Metropolitan Opera Baritone
Overcomes Hoarseness and
Sings Magnificently. J.
3; 4: g
By WILLIAM MOORE.

Golden-voiced Titta Ruffo, Metro
politan Opera Company baritone
came to Washington yesterday and'
assisted by Yvonne D'Arle, lyric
soprano, and Julian Huarte, pianist,
gave a recital at Polls Theater.
The theater was by no. means
filled, but what the music lovers
lacked in numbers they made up
in applause.
With the appearance of Miss
D'Arle in the Blanca Luce ara
from Leoni's "L'Oracolo,' an 1nno-
walton was attempted. Every light
in the auditorium, with the excep-
tion of a few back lights on the
stage, were flicked off, leaving the
artists in silhouette. The effect
was far from pleasing, the artists
appearing like grotesque pantomlm-
lists. After few numbers the exs
pertinent was abandoned and the
lights flashed up again. :.
Ruffo Pleases.
Ruffo, albeit there was trace
of hoarseness in his opening offer.
ings, finally got thoroughly warmed
up to his work and manipulated
that rich golden voice of his. with
the ease of skilled sculptor. From
a heterogeneous mass of color, he
adroitly moulded beautifully wrought
musical passages as clean.cut, as a
cameo. -
Perhaps his greatest effort was
the ballad of Adamastor, from
Meyerbeers "L'Africanus." Plung'
ing. heartily into the role OF the
rollicking. registering, swashback'
ling sea king, Ruffo reared his no.
hos" and cha, has" with blood
stirring bravado.
Ruffo opened with the prologue
from 'Pagliacci,' and, despite the
hoarseness previously mentioned,
sang with skill.
Then followed a group of Spanish,
French and Italian congratulations
tit.bits with exquisite legato pass
ages. The dramatic "Menico Della
Patrie?" from Giordano's andres
Chenier;" and numerous encores
deli@hted the audience.
Miss D'Arle. while possessing a
voice of lyric sweetness in the
middle register, had tendency to
shrlll on the higher notes. The
selection which was best suited to
her voice was the spring aria from
'Snegurotchka," by Rimsky- Korsa'
koff. The "Thais" duet with Ruffo
was well done by both artists.
Huerta accompanied Ruffo, and
played several piano selections. Ola
Guledge played the accompaniment
for Miss D'Arle.

The court then quashed the indlct-

on the plea of their counsel that the
indictment failed to set forth any
overt act Of the alleged conspiracy.
This is the first case in which the
national prohibition unit sought to
use the indictment as a means OF
imposing penitentiary sentences on
bootleggers. Assistant District At
torney Kelly said he would submit
the evidence to another grand jury,
hoping to secure new Indictment.

Important to All Women
Readers of This Paper

Thousands upon thousands of women
have kidney or bladder trouble and never
suspect it.
Women's complaints often prove to be
nothing else but kidney trouble, or the
result of kidney OF bladder disease.
If the kidneys are not in a healthy con-
dition, they may cause the other organs
to become diseased.
You may suffer pain in the back, head
ache and loss Of ambition.
Poor health makes you nervous, irri-
table and maybe respondent; it makes
any one 30.
But hundreds of women claim that DR..
Kilmer's Swamp-Root, by restoring health
to the kidneys, proved to be just the
remedy needed to overcome such condi-
tions.
Many send for a sample bottle to see
what Swamp-Root, the great kidney, liver
and bladder medicine, will do for them. By
enclosing ten cents to DR.. Kilmer 4 Co.,
Binghamton, N. Y, you may receive sam-
pie size bottle by parcel post. You can
purchase medium and large size bottles at
all drug stores.-Advertisement. --
