 In new country where whiskers were common and mems clothes rough, he was careful to shave clean and to keep himself neatly
 attired. He was obsequious when such a manner suited his purpose,
 but either indifferent or inSolent in the absence of selfish motives. He
 was taciturn, not given to casual Iconversation or idle remark. He
 lacked humor AS in later years,
 he rarely smiled, and probably he has never been heard to laugh. In Dawson he sought and obtained
 employment in one of the combina-

 theatre and dance hall resorts that
 comprised most of the places of
 business on the main street.
 Nearly all these resorts were tWo-

 similar interior arrangements. The front half of the ground floor was occupied by the liquor bar and the gambling tables. The rear half was , used for theatre and dance hall. After variety performance in the
 evening upon the stage, at the eX-

On the second floor in front over the bar and gambling games were bed rooms. Tn the rear on both sides above stage and , dance floor, were tiers of boxes from which occupants could look
 down on performers and dancers. About 20 girls, including those that helped in the stage entertain ment, constituted a feminine danc- ing force. Every time one of them , danced with man, he had to buy drinks for her and himself. The price of a drink over the bar was $1

 Never before in the history of the world has the progress of Medical Science been So rapid. One important discovery after another has been made which will have a far-reaching effect upon the health and Well-being of mankind. Some of these dis coveries are startling in the ex- treme and absolutely disprove many Of the beliefs, practices and \ theories we have known for life time.
 As scientific investigators learn more and more about the human anatomy, the practice of medicine changes old is discarded for the new.
 As a result of this world wide medical research, Science learn ed that the good health is largely governed and maintained by three vital organs and fluids of the body What is more important, we have learned that these organs and fluids can often be aided and strengthened by certain basic ele- .. ments.

OLD LIQUOR ABUSES
SCORED BY LUDLOW
Indiana Representative Addresses
Harrison Bible Glass of Con-
gress Street Church.

Under inspiration of the liquors dis
pensed over the bar of the old saloon
formerly in the Capitol Building, the
old topers in Congress often behaved in
way that ought to have made the
Goddess of Liberty on the Capitol
dome hide her head in shame. Repre-
sentative Louis Ludlow of Indiana told
members of the Harrison Bible class of
the Congress Street Methodist Church
yesterday.
Representative Ludlow, former presi-
dent of the National Press Club. and
for 81 years newspaper writer and
observer, in his address to the Bible
class on "Milestones of Progress" gave
recital of evidences that have come
under his observation, during his long
career as a newspaper man, tending to
show that the world is growing better.
Crime waves have occurred and re-
Cured" the speaker said, 'faithless
public servants have too often soiled
the record with black blotches of in
fanny, but on the whole society has adj
vanced by many milestones of progress. I"
Referring again to lawlesSness and
vice conditions existing in the National
Capital, when he first joined the press
gallery. Representative Ludlow said he
was convinced the day of licensed vice
is gone forever.

as result of cuts sustained in an
automobile collision last night was un-
determined this morning, following
treatment at Casualty and the Episco-

Although lacerated by flying glass
Gwendolyn evinced primary concern
for the welfare of her 9-month-old

beside her on the back seat when the
Freese machine crashed at Fourth and
K streets northeast with another oper-

Suspects Face Charges of
Murder in Connection With
Staying of Pair.
SCORE OF WITNESSES
PLACED UPON STAND
One Testifes That Defendant Said
He Was "0ut to Get
Police Aide.

The five colored men who on Friday
were charged with the murder of two
colored police informers in Southwest
Washington last Wednesday night. all
were held by coroners jury today for
the action OF the grand jury.
The men are: Leon Thomas Brown,
10 years old; Lawrence Bias, 26 years
old Theodore Smith, "a years old: Cor
nelius L. Lyons, 80 years old, and Will
liam Bradley, 35 years old.
They are charged with shooting to
death Clarence Harvey and Edward
Smith in Broad alley, between Third
and our-and-a-half streets and G and
H streets southwest, in the district which
is known by police as Bears Gap"
With the exception of Jesse Kendall
another colored informer, who was with
Harvey and Smith when the shooting
occurred, but who escaped unhurt, the
testimony of the score or more other
witnesses, including Lieut.. Edward
Kelly, chief of the homicide squad, was
purely perfunctory.
Defendant Singled Out.
Kendall singled out Bradley, one of
the defendants, as the man who APP
preached Smith, with whom he was
walking down the street, and declared
that "he was out to get him."
The Sayings, which first were thought
to have been the result of lottery
war, were said by police to have been
caused by the seizure of a quantity of
liquor Wednesday night and the wound
ing of Bradley by one of the informers.
Harvey shot Bradley, according to
police, when he was accosted upon leav-
ing the place where he is alleged to
have attempted to purchase liquor, and
from which it was said later that a
quantity of liquor was seized.
Gun Belonged to Barrett.
According to testimony of police to-
day, the gun found in Harvey's hand
is the property of Detective r. j. Bar
rett of the fourth precinct and was
stolen, they said, from a desk in the
sergeants room at the fourth precinct.
Harvey, it was testified, called at the
precinct about 7 o'clock on the night
he was slain and sought an interview
with Barrett, and after being told that
the detective was absent, left the sta
ton house.

BURL|NGAME HITS
RETIREMENT TALK
Veteran Police Officer En-.
phaticaIIy Denies He In
tends to Quit Force.

Capt. Guy E. Burlingame of the Sec
ond police precinct, today for the first
time. denied rumors of his impending
retirement that have persiStently
coursed through officials channels in
the District Building, as we'll as in the
Police Department since his exonera-
ton on the charges growing out of the
accusations of Mrs. Helen F. Blalock,
former Seventh street palmist.
Il have not filed an application for
retirement and I do not intend to do
So" he declared emphatically.
The reports that Capt. Burlingame
would seek voluntarily to close his pic
turesque 33-year career on the police
force through the medium of retire
ment, were based on ,intimations that
the District Commissioners expected
him to make such a move.
1t was pointed out, however, that the
Commissioners have the power to order
the retirement of Capt. Burlingame at
any time, if they so desire, as he has
passed the age of so, the optional limi-
tation fixed by law on the service of a
police officer or a member of the Fire
Department. The retirement law, as ii
relates to the Police and Fire Depart
mentS specifically stipClateS that the
Commissioners, in their discretion, may
retire policeman or fireman who has
reached the age of co.
The Commissioners have not given
any indication whether they propose to
use their discretion in the case of Capt
Burlingame, who has passed life's sixty
second milestone.
Capt. Burlingame has no known
physical deficiency and his superiors
have rated him as the most efficient
police captain on the force The only
reason then that they would order his
retirement, it was said. would be to
preclude possible criticism from several
members of Congress who are said to
be displeased over the outcome of the
recent trial. Thomas l.. Blanton, the
severeSt critic of Capt. Burlingame, has
left Congress.
Maj. Edwin B. Hesse. superintendent,
one of the targets i'll the Police De-
partment of congressional criticism in
the past, is expected to be out of the
service when the new Congress con-
venes next month.
Capt. Burlingame's special trial did
not prove to be as costly to the Police
Department as at first anticipated. A
check-up by Inspector William S. Shell
by, assistant superintendent and per-
sonnet officer, indicates that the major
expense, the Stenographic transcript of
the testimony, will not exceed 81 200.
1t had been estimated that this item
alone probably would reach $4,000.
The other items of expense in connec-
ton with the trial are minor, so that
the total bill likely will be kept under
$1,000. The payment of these bills will
be made from the Police Departments
contingent fund.

vestigation that my use of my weapons
was wholly warranted and that the dis
cretion with which an officer is vested
in cases of this kind was in no way
abused, had the inspector, before rem
dering his report, taken the time and
trouble to question me or to interview
the large number of witnesses to the
shooting.
Immediately after the report of the
shooting reached your Office attempted
to see you personally there, waiting in
your anteroom for approximately three
hours so that I could explain to YOU
the facts surrounding this occurrence
and to request that I be temporarily
suspended from active duty, but as you
know I was informed that you were
too busy to talk to me at that time.
1T is therefore respectfully requested
for the foregoing reasons, that I be
suspended from active duty without
pay or any other allowances until such
time as the charges are disposed of,
which I earnestly request will be as
speedily as the business of your office
will allow"
