Washington History
BY DONALD A. CRAIG.

July 0, 1S60--A grand public rally
to indorsa the nominations of Breck-
inridge and Lane for President and
Vice President, by the recent National
Democratic convention Ia Baltimore,
was held this evening In front of the
City Hall here. 1t was described as the
largest public gathering In Washing
toms history, with the possible excep-
ton of the memorable meeting many
years ago, to ratify the presidential
nomination of Henry Clay.
1t is estimated that not less than
10000 persons were ON the ground.
Lively airs were played at appropriate
intervals by q band stationed on the
west wing of the City Hall, which was
decorated with patriotic banners.
During the progress of the meeting.
professions arrived from the various
wards Of the city. accompanied by
music and displaying transparencies
with devices inscribed on them. Some
Of the sentiments expressed on the
transparencieS were as follows:
Union and States Rights-Breck-
inridge and Lane"
THE gallant young orator from Ken
tucky-The young men Of the country
are for him."
''Nonintervention by Congress or ter
ritorial Legislatures"
The Union We love for the memories
of the past; we cling to 1t for the bless
ings of the present"
mo Rail Party or Union Splitters."
Cuba Must Be Ours"
Iron bands shall unite the Atlantic
and Pacific"
state Sovereignty, Honesty, Fair
Dealing, Good Money and Low Taxes"
Mayor James G. Berret was chosen
presiding officer of the meeting
The principal address was made by
President Buchanan. Referring to the
merits of the nominees for President
and Vice President, he said:
Among their many worthy qualities
the fact that they are friends of the
equality of the sovereign States of
the Union in the common territory of
the country should especially cause you
to give them your earnest support"
Cries of Good! Good!" greeted this
statement.
Shall we,> for the sake of squatter
sovereignty" continued the President
divide the Democratic party, North
a / South. into two divisions? Is not
that the merest pretext In the world?
Shall We separate this Democratic party
North and South. and thus discover
one of the strongest ties that bind this
Union together?
"Neyer!" yelled the audience.

the set was addressed by the director.
"Hey!" the director said. Call Eel

A few minutes later he heard his
assistant bawling this through the re-
sounding silence of the sound stage:
''All youse fellers-the director wants
you'll"
Now that the entire U. 8. A, Is Lind

phrase, Robert Montgomery of Holly
wood Is finding his resemblance to the
aviator one of his strongest assets.
Rudy Vallee's popularity with women
is laid to his Lindbergh likeness.
Women adore the Prince of Wales, who,
though Of smaller build and Of more
worldly whimsical mien, bears q SINH

G. B. Shaw Is of these. He steadfastly
refused the most alluring offers. But
he communicated with producers and

his own volition to the "cinemagogues"

The wonder is that A. Henry Savage
Lander, grandson Of the great poet and
cssayist, Walter Savage-Landor. lived
to become one of England's distin-
guished explorers.
One day, before he was 5, he was at
home, playing with q little friend. The
other boy saw q handsome sword which
was an ornament of the room. He per-
sLaded Henry to have his head cut off.
1T will be all right" he explained re-
assuringly. I'VE cut off doll heads and

called gleefully to Mrs. Savage-Landor:

Presumably that was what saved the
future explorers life.
At the age of Henry Savage-Landor

head. For years thereafter he was SUBJ

fruit from q tree In the garden. He
couldn't reach even the lowest branch
and could find no ladder. From the
stable he brought long strap, threw 1t
over a branch, held one end firmly in
his teeth and jumped up, seizing the
other end in his hands. He thought
that thus he could lift himself up.
Only eight teeth were torn out by this
simple operation. He picked them up
and ran with bleeding mouth to show
them to his mother

On another occasion his parents left
him at home with the Italian cook. The
cook got drunk and fell asleep. Henry,
left to his own devices, climbed up the
iron grating of a window and stuck his
head through one of the squares.
He couldn't get it out again. It

Baked Marshmallow Custard.

Fresh marshmallows give q delicious
flavor to baked custard. Make the
custard in the usual way, stirring in six
or eight marshmallows just before you
put 1t in the oven. The heat of the
oven melts them before the custard
sets and the flavor mixes all through.
Another way to use them is to put them
on top of the custard after the custard
the oven. When the marshmallows
have become a delicate brown, remove
the pan from the oven. When indi-
vidual custard cups are used, one
marshmallow to each cup is enough.
