To the house came Paul Revere on
the night Of the 18th Of April or rather
early in the morning Of the 10th, after
he had warned Hancock and Adams Of
the approach Of the British. These two
patriots had been in Concord to attend
the provincial congress, which had been
in session few days before, and were
spending that memorable night at Han

Patriots and Heroes.

Poles point with justifable pride to
the part played by Tadeusz Kosciusz-
ko. their national hero, in the RevoIu-
tionary war, and especially to the part
he played In the victory at Saratoga,
which won for America not only the
campaign, but her recognition as an
Independent nation from Louis XVI.
But Kosciuszko's services did not
In the first instance receive the full
recognition that might have been ex-
pected from the new republic. He
alone Of all the superior officers of
The Revolution received no promotion
other than that given wholesale by
congress, and was forced to apply per-
sonally to Washington to rectify the
omission. In language not too cor
dial, Washington presented his re-
quest to congress, which conferred
upon Kosciuszko the rank of brigadier
general.
Kosciuszk0 was q visitor In Paris
when the ENJOYS from America were
there on their mission Of enlisting
the help OF France In the conflict
Of the States with Great Britain. He
heard the story of a young country
striving for independence. He came
at once to America, and as a volun-
teer offered his services to the United
States to fight in the cause Of free
dom. During the war he was an
engineer, with rank Of colonel.
With the memories Of the Revolu-
ton burnt into his soul. ten years
later Kosciuszko led 1 more desperate
throw for freedom to him incompar-
ably dearer-his own country.

Lexington Inn
Bears Scars of
Famous Battle

4
Among New England towns which,
In using old historic houses for their
community centers, have shown their
reverence for the past and their apvs
probation Of the value of keeping it
alive, are Lexington and Dedham,
writes Margaret Fitzgerald Browne, In
the Boston Transcript. OF Lexington
does this more especially hold true,
for here the Lexington Historical So
ciety has turned over to the Community
association the old Buckman tavern,
built in 1890, and closely associated
with the stirring events Of the history
of the town, which are also the events
of the history Of the nation. 1t was
closely associated In literal sense,
too. for it stands so near the village
green, where Captain Parker and his
seventy-six minute men faced six hum
dred trained British soldiers In the
gray dawn Of April 10, 1775, that there
are holes made by the bullets In Its
white clapboarding-its scars from the
battle.
The very oldest of the twelve tay-
ems which once were carrying on an
active business In Lexington, the Buck
man tavern, so called from its owner
and landlord in Revolutionary days.
John Buchanan, was built in 1890 by
BENJAMIN Muzzey, who owned con-
siderable piece Of land In that part Of
the countryside, then called Cam
bridge Farms. Up to that time, since
the first house was built there In 1910
by Roger Herlarkenden, Cambridge
Farms had remained a precinct Of
Cambridge and It's lands were used by
cambridge people as an additional
source Of hay. The year after Benja-
min Muzzey built his tavern, and was
licensed to keep public house and
hung before it sign promising zen
tentainment for man and beast" Cam
bridge Farms was Incorporated as a
separate parish, but it was not until
March 81, lib, that the town was in
corp0rated as Lexington, taking its
name from Lord Lexington, a British
statesman of prominence at the time.
Later Colonial Period.
The house as originally built had q
huge brick chimney at one end, which
provided enormous hreplaces for its
two rooms, one room to floor. while
narrow stairway went up beside the
chimney. This original house was
added to at various times, and fire.
places with the necessary alterations
and fiues were built into different sides
OF the chimney, SO that It now pre-
sents the square substantial lines Of
the later Hlonial period. An ell built
onto the front right-hand corner Of the
house was added In 1928 and this
part Of the tavern became the first
post Office In Lexington, continuing In
that capacity until 1647. This room
now makes a convenient and pleasant
place for bridge parties and food sales
for charity, and such activities Of the
town.
The Oldest part Of the house lies to
the right Of the door as you enter.

y all say Use Rinse

They all agree there is no soap like it
for washing machines!
Experiment after experiment made
by laundry experts, by chemists and by
practical washerwomen have resulted
in an endorsement from these washing
machine men that is enthusiastic and
unanimous.
APEX says: "Our conviction is that the
best partner Apex could find is Rinso."
COFFIELD says: Tried out over period
equivalent to seven years weekly USE Rinse
did not corrode or injure the machine in any
way. 1t can be used with absolute safety"
The GAINADAY people say: "Rinso suds
stand up permanently. They penetrate the
water SO that every garment is saturated with
Rinse solution"
LAUN.DRY.ETTE writes: 1--WE found
no little soapy particles floating around in
the water in our tests with Rinse as we did
with some of the other soaps. Twelve min
utes was the average operating period with
Rinse and not single article had to be

JURORS WIVES RESENT
GALLOWS FOR WOMAN
Mate of Foreman Threatens TO Leave
Him If Penalty Is
Executed

Chicago July 12.-Wives of jurors
who on Monday gave the death pen
atty to Mrs. ISABELLE Nitti Crudelle
tried for the killing of her former
husband, were reported today to dis
agree with the penalty recommended
by their husbands. The foreman's
wife was reported to have threatened
to leave her husband If the sentence
was carried out. Mrs. Crudelle is the
first white woman in Cook county
sentenced to hang.
Mrs. Lenora z. Meder, attorney and
officer of the society for the abolition
of capital punishment, is preparing TO
protest the verdict to Gov. Small. At
torney Eugene Moran, Mrs. Crudelle's
counsel, said verdicts in trials of
women were inversely proportional to
the charm of the defendant.
Mrs. Crudelle attempted to commit
suicide in her cell yesterday, beating
her head against the bars and trying
to choke herself. Only Intervention
by the matrons prevented her from
doing serious injury to herself.
Earlier in the morning it was
learned the woman had a high tenn
perature and had refused food. She
was removed to the jail hospital and
a strict guard established.

ENFORCE DRY LAWS, SAYS
ENRIGHT TO n. Y. POLICE
New Rules Require Inspection OF
Places Suspected OF Violations
Iaxity Implies "Tribute"

New York, July 12.-Police Com
missioner Richard E, Enright yester-
day issued an order requiring the
members of the police department of
New York city to enforce the Vol
stead act and the Eighteenth amend
ment. The order revokes all former
regulations promulgated by the police
commissioner for the enforcement of
the Mullan-Gage law. which was re-
pealed on June 1.
In issuing the new order Commits
sioner Enright reverses Corporation
Counsel George P. Nicholson, who
held that the police were only moral
y obligated to enforce the national
prohibition law. The Corporation
counsel ruled that in the absence Of
a state enforcement statute there was
no legal obligation on the part of
the police to search for evidence
against violators of the national pro-
hibition act. He said they would be
expected to make arrests only when
they were actually witnesses of viola
tions of the law.
The latest order of Commissioner
Enright says that the Volstead act "is
still the law Of the land" He warns
members of the police department
that II they neglect or omit" to per-
form their duty under that law they
will be guilty of misdemeanor and
liable to indictment. The order re-
quires them to investigate places sus-
pected of violating the Volstead act.
Commissioner Enright credits the
administration with having driven
vice and crime from the city and with
having Suppressed 10000 saloons. He
characterizes saloons as breeding
places of crime and says they must
not be permitted to return.
