SALVATION ARMY'S
D. C. RECORDRA|SED
1894 0pen-Air Meetings in
Past Year, With Attendance
of 48,644.

Religious work Of the Salvation
Army in Washington during the past
year has exceeded that of any previ-
Gus twelve months in the history OF
the organization, according to re-
port just compiled on the religious
meetings held. =
The primary purpose of the army in
,ts organization has always been to
take religion TO the man in the street
TO reach those men who could not be
reached by the established churches
and, where possible, to supplement
the church work, says preface to
the report.
Statistics show that the three Sal
vation Army Corps working in the
District held in the past year 1894
open air meetings, which were attend
ed by a total of 4S,644 persons. The
AL indoor meetings held at the Sal
vation Army halls were attended by
approximately $4,000 persons, making
a. total of 1854 persons reached by
this organization in one year. In ad-
dition, 29.600 copies of the War Cry,
official publication of the organiza-
Humanitarian Endeavors.
This religious service, together with
the social service. or relief work, con-
stitutes the two big humanitarian
works of the Salvation Army, Tor
which it is now attempting to raise
$4,000.
In it's efforts to carry the teach
ings of Christianity to men ana
women in the highways and byways'
1t is doing a service attempted by no
other organization on such large
scale. it is pointed out by Army orn-
cials.
THE appreciation of the Christian
people of the District in this service
of the salvation army" said Rudolph
Jose. chairman of the citizens COM
mittee in charge of the District cam
paign for funds. commenting on the
report, lis evidenced b. the many
letters which accompany contribu
tions to the yearly budget. and while
this service is less spectacular than
the maintenance of the many char
liable institutions, which the army
maintains throughout the country, II
Is regarded as first In the consfdera
tion of army officials"
Contributions to the 100000 now
being raised by committee of cit
liens for the years work in the Dis
trict should be sent to the Salvation
Army. 607 E street northwest, Mr..

But when the flu had disappeared

he gave me pills to heal my leg, and
squelch my inward fire. He saw
that | was but a wreck, containing
many woes. and gave me pills to
soothe my neck, and pills to bleach
my nose. The habit fastened on

thoughts were once of things sub

COL. CLIFTON SAYS
He E|SPLOT VICTIM
D. C. Attorney Denies Liquor
Smuggling Charged in New
York indictment.

Claiming that his indictment with
eight others by New York federal
grand jury Tuesday in connection
with an alleged s1,0o0.0o0 liquor con-
spiracy is the result of a deliberate
"frame-up," Col John W. Clifton,
Vanderbilt University graduate and
prominent Washington attorney. said
yesterday that ne would go to New York
IN few days to fight the case to the
limit
Col. Clifton. according to allegations,
used his influence to obtain with
drawal permits for liquor in ware
houses "hich subsequently found its
way into bootleg trade. 1t also was
charged that papers and kilograms
seized in raids several months ago
on the Cumberland Chemical Com
pany, a Tennessee corporation, linked
the names of Clifton and Thomas c.
Craven, a liquor warehouse pro-
prietor, one of the nine indicted, with
whisky muSSling from Canada to
Cuba.
In answer to a warrant issued by
Commissioner George II. Macdonald
who acted on information furnished
New York, Clifton surrendered to the
New York authorities March 8. He
was then released under bond of
$4,000. fixed by United States Com
missioner Hitchcock.
Denies Smuggling knowledge.
Col. Clifton, who lives at the Uni
versity Club and has been practicinE
law here since 1913, denied knowledge
OF the liquor smuggling operations,
and declared that he could prove the
falsity of the allegations TT has
been two years" he said, "since
have been in the prohibition Office"
A lengthy statement was issued by
Col. Clifton containing what he term
ed was complete narrative of the
course of events which connected his
name with the alleged rum conspir-
racy. II have no more knowledge of
acting improperly or unethically in this
case than you have he told a Star
representative. 1T is a terrible trag-
edy in the career of a young man to
have thing like this framed on him.
The action Of the grand jury in New
York simply amazed me-"
According to Col. Clifton's state
ment, his. name was drawn into the
affair through overtures of certain
men in New York. to retain him as
counsel to try to get the Treasury
Department to releaseNa heavy bond

ROSEBUD ROMANCE
OF THE OLD DAYS
JAKE L. DeHART TELLS OF
SHEEPMAN WHO GOT A
MAIL ORDER WIFE
She Did Not Like Lonesome Places
and Persuaded Him to Sell Out;
Went to Dawson With Her and
Made Fortune; Now Lives in San
Francisco.

Jake l.. DeHart, formerly fight
ing sheriff of eastern Montana, and
now state game warden, tells ro-
nance of the Rosebud that is worth
while. 1t concerns man well known
to old timers of the Rosebud river,
who are familiar with the story. For
the purpose of this story his name
will be William Brown. He made a
million dollars in the Dawson BOOM
and resides in a palatial home in San
Francisco.
He tried his luck at sheep and cat
tie and after he had accumulated a
little money he thought he would get
married. Women were scarce on
the cattle ranges of eastern Mon
tana in those days. He became a sub
scriber to the Heart and Home" a
matrimonial paper which then flour
ished by providing helpmates and
husbands for those in the lonesome
places.
His first venture in this respect
was not a success. The young wom-
an with whom he was put in COM
through this medium was
not up to specifications, as indicated
by the photograph of some other girl
of striking appearance which She
sent him, and on the strength OF
which he advanced the money for
her fare from the east. When she
arrived he took one look at the wrin-
kles in her face, and beat 1t back
