HARDING DEATH
PRESAGEDBY
LADDY BOY
White House Attaches Think
Dogs Piteous HowIing
Forecast Event.

White House attaches today are
wondering whether the famed in
stinct of dogdom forecast the death
Of President Harding last Wednes-
day night.
They revealed today that Laddy
Boy, the Presidents own airedala,
thrust his muzzle toward the skies
that night and howled piteously. At
the time, listeners gave it no I'M
usual attention but when, the next
night, an hour later, news was
flashed that the Big Chief" had
died, they recalled the ominous por-
tent given to the shrtll death howl
of dogdom.
1t was also learned that Laddy
Boy repeated his whines again
Thursday night, while last night.
though silent, he seemed unusually
restless, pacing his kennel through
out the night. Some of the White
House attaches are certain that
Laddy Boy sensed the departure Of
his playmate and master, for they
declare the airedale was never be.
fore known to howl at night.
Today, he was playful, being taken
for romp in the White House yard
by the master of hounds. 1t came at
the hour when the former President
usually played with him.

GIRL IS FOUND
OVERCOME
BY GAS
Victoria KissaI, IS, Reported
in Dangerous Condition
in Hospital.

The condition of pretty fifteen
year-old Victoria Kissal, of 1011 K
street northeast, who was found by
her father, Edgar Kissal, lying
across her bed in an unconscious
condition last night, is serious, DIR.
George Strother. staff physician
at the Casualty hospital, declared
today.
The girl was found shortly be-
Tore midnight. She had gone to
her room to retire for the night,
and kissal noticed the odor of gas
coming from her room. The room
was dark and he traced the gas
fumes to a wide open jet. The win
dow of the room was open, permit
ting some of the gas to get out.
The girls father told the police
that she had gone to her room
about 10 o'clock to curl her hair.
The curriers' were found by her side
on the bed. Kissell said that he
believed his daughter had thrown
herself on the bed to rest a few
minutes and had fallen asleep. He
said that he thought the wind might
have blown out the light leaving
the gas leaking.
While police do not believe that
the girl attempted suicide, they are
puzzled over the case. They point
out that the window would not
have been left open had the girl
contemplated ending her life.

PRES|DENTHELD
GRAYSON HERE
FOR WILSON
TactfuI Sympathy of Harding
Shown in Order Keeping
Admiral in Capital.
COPYRIGHT HARRIS 4. EWING

An incident which shows the
humanity and sympathy of Presl-
dent Harding has just been brought
to light.
Twenty-Five months ago he
helped lift President Woodrow VIII
son down the steps of the White
House portico and into the auto
mobile which took them to the In
augural ceremonies at the Caplto!
which made Harding President or
the United States.
The new Presidents sympathetic
consideration for his stricken pre-
decessor on that day won the adj
miration of thousands. The Incl
dent which was not revealed to the
public came Immediately after
President Harding's assumption OF
his duties.
Rear Admiral Cary T. Grayson,
who had been President Wilson s
physician and who Is credited with
saving the life of the war Presl-
dent, upon Wilson's termination
of office became subject to assign
ment away from Washington.
Without a request or suggestion
and without a word to anybody
President Harding issued orders
that DR.. Grayson was to be as
signed to duty in Washington.
where he could Immediately reach
the former President in case of
need. and that he was not to be
ordered elsewhere for any reason
without consent of the President.
The fact was not made known
even to Wilson until it was re-
vealed today by naval officials.

Mourning Rosettes To
Be Worn By D. {.

Black rosettes will be worn by
every member of the police de-
partment Monday in final tribute
to Warren G. Harding. Major
Sullivan announced this morn
ing that on the day the body ar
rives every. available policeman
will be detailed to duty down
town and when the funeral takes
place every policeman in the Dis
trict will be on duty on or near
