Strike Period Note in
Restoring Home of Lee

The restored home of Gen. Robert
E. Lee will be one of fine old
southern family of the period rather
than large museum of antiquities.
Major General Dewitt, the new
quartermaster general, says the work
is being vigorously carried on by the
War department, with every possible
effort being made to get authorita-
tive information. The department
wants the restoration to capture
those times when it was occupied by
the Lee and Gusts families.
In addition to providing for the
restoration of the building proper,
congress contemplated complete re-
furnishing and authorized acceptance
of furniture donations. 1t has been
definitely decided, General Dewitt
says, to accept only genuine orig
inals of the proper period. An ac-
copied article will carry the donors
name. al

Shift to Cities Checked

The farm-to-city shift of popula-
ton, which in 1926 had given indica-
lions of reaching alarming proper
tions, has fallen away until during
1920 the loss to the farms was only
100000.
1t is estimated that 1,S7G,0O0 per-
sons left farms to reside in the cit
les, but during the same period 1851
600 left the cities for the farms.
Helping to balance the shift were the
1900 births on the farms, with only
1000 deaths. During the peak
year of 1926 more than 100000 per-
sons left the farms for the cities.

The British made triumpnal entry
of it on August "a. Entering the Ex-
ecutive Mansion, the British officers,
according to their own account, drank
the British kings health in the Amer
lean Presidents wine and then set fire
to the building. Next they visited the
Capitol and Admiral Cockburn took his
seat in the chair of the speaker of
the house of representatives. Spring
ing to his feet, he shouted, "Shall this
harbor of Yankee Democracy be
burned? All for it will say Aver"
Shouts of aye! Aye" filled the room
and few minutes later the torch
was applied. Next they destroyed the
treasury building, set fire to other gov
eminent structures, and when they de-
parted they left behind them a city
virtually in ashes.
Washington, with it's smoking ruins,
was in a critical situation. Many
members Of congress had never been
fully reconciled to moving the Ma
tional Capital from Old-established
Philadelphia to this "backwoods viii
lage," and after the scattered legisla-
tors had reassembled, movement was
started to abandon Washington and re-
establish the seat of government in
Philadelphia. Then group of lead
ing Washington citizens got busy.
They determined to provide, at their
own expense, suitable meeting place
when the new congress convened.
1t was this structure which for the
next four years housed the government
of the United States. President James
Monroe took the oath of Office on a
platform erected on the north side of
the building, the first outdoor inaug-
uration ceremonies since Washing
tons in New York, and the one which
established the precedent for the in
duction into office of later Presidents.
But even more important during the
four eventful years of the Old Brick
Capitol's early history were the acts
of the Fourteenth and Fifteenth con-
crosses which met in it.
They granted charter for 20 years
to that bank of the United States
against which Andrew Jackson waged
his famous fight. They appropriated
a million a year for eight years for
naval construction. They authorized
the President to engage John Trum-
bull to make his four big paintings
for the new Capitol that was to be.
They granted to Revolutionary vet
Grams pensions of $50 month to Off
GERS and IS to privates, on proof
of need" They enacted, on April A,
1918, the law adopting Capt. Samuel
Chester Reds design for the national
flag. They ratified the treaty with
Great Britain for the restriction of ma
val forces on the Great Lakes. They
authorized the President to take pos
session of East and West Florida.
They admitted Mississippi, Indiana
and Illinois into the Union; made or
ganized territories of Alabama and
Arkansas and authorized Alabama to
take steps for statehood.

 Sunday morning, Tolan accom- panied by Dumphy, is alleged to have gone first to Sherman's resi- dence, then later to a restaurant where he told the officer he wanted to see him privately. Sherman said he accompanied the two men over to his office and there they at tackled him, Tolan drawing a 45 caliber Colts automatic revolver. This the officer, after a struggle, wrested away from Tolan Tn the meantime, Sherman's calls for aid frightened Dumphy, who left the office, locking the door behind him

 After Espce has served his term in orklns out the S2.25 costs, he will be arraigned by the Berlin po- lice on charge of the theft Of the chickens which he sold at a New Britain poultry market. Espce said that the chickens came from his parents coop, though h,s mother disclans having had any chickens answering the description of those 'he culprit pointed out ill market as the stolen property.
 The case has become complicated inasmuch as Espee admits having stolen the chickens while they can- not be identified by their alleged former owner.
 Ispee enlightened the police court that he had taken chickens only be- cause they made less noise in the process of being hlched than did ducks, which he originally set out 10 lay hands on. He tried gather- ing a duck under it's wing. but this fowl made such q quack that he re- sorted to the less garrulous chick ems, he said.
 Suspicion originally arose around Mefflin when Policeman Muzczyn- ski caught sight of the automobile on Hartford avenue and trailed it's owner, finding that the car was un- registered.
