DRAWS NEAR
Dealers Grow Bitter at Fate
With 'zgfo Hours Approach;
). BpwIlsa. Alas Get Stay

-
Z The closing hours of Center
Market isteday .Eere gloomy and
miserable.
The Yuletide array Of green's
was bedraggled and the stalls
were almost funereal in aspect as
customers, few and far between,
passed.
A current Of bitterness filled
the air and dealers started bick'
ering among themselves as they
saw their last ray Of hope that
the historic marketing rendezvous
might be saved from immediate
| denolitation fading away from
them.
... Hope Until End
They clustered together to dis
cuss eleventh-hour rumors. and
ones asked:
|"Has anybody got to McCarI
yet? viii he change his stuff"
Came the reply:
~'Naw, there amt q chance
of that. IT'S all fixed and set
tied, We've got to get out Of
lhere tonight"
There were hard feelings over
the fact that some Of the dealers,
moving to nearby spots on com
mission row. are going to have
refrigeration furnished them by
the contractor who takes charge
Of the building tomorrow.
The contractor came in for
many maledictions because Of the
suspicion that he will OF able to
make extra profit by providing
not only refrigeration, but also
storage for some dealers.
Bowling Alleys Stay
Stall keepers were angered
when sthey discovered that bowl
ing alleys on the upper floors
ere to. be kept open for at least
smother 10 days. with neat and
light furnished by the wrecking
company.
! There was bitterness also over
the fact that many Of the "old
timers" in the market are being
TUNED. down in their application
for space in the Western and
Convention Hall markets. It is
estimated that more than IS of
them will be forced out Of bust
ness.
The farmers doing a retail
business along the curb outside
the; market are disheartened, al
though some Of them hope to
keep on doing business there for
the winter at least.
One grizzled old farmer said:
!; IF Senator Tydings had
Started his fight for Us . little
bit earlier, all Of this could
have been changed. But I guess
it's all over now"

Mrs. TOWnshend Says Charge
+ Of Larceny Will Result in
That; Or. Johnston Silent.

The Rev. DR.. Robert Johnston,
rector Of the fashionable st.
Johns Episcopal Church, today
indicated that he had washed his
hands Of the troublouS matter
involving his choirmaSter, T. Guy
Lucas, who is charged with
larceny after trust by one Of the
church's pariShioners.
Mrs. Edith L. Townshend, Of
the Presidential Apartments,
charged in her warrant that she
had entrusted 1890 to Mr.. Lucas
and he had turned $4;578 to his
own use. Mr.. Lucas is under
5000 for Grand Jury action.
When asked today If any
church action would be taken fol-
lowing trial Of the case, Dr..
Johnston threw UP his hands. and
said:
T have nothing to- do with
it! Nothing at ali! Il is not
my affair. / have nothing more
to say!"
The pastor Of the Church of
the Presidents" then abruptly
repaired to his study at 821 Six.
teenth st. N. W., putting vigor.
ouSly on his pipe. He refused
further comment.
Predicts Loss Of Job
Mrs. TownShend, however, said
that Rev. Johnston had insisted
that Mr.. Lucas would lose his
position at the church through
subsequent publicity. Her state
ment follows:
81 wish to deny the statement
quoted as coming from me TO
the effect that 4 am going

me. -
'T have NO statement to the

"T have no animOsity toward
Mr.. Lucas. I am, instead, sorry
for him. / regret that the &C
tiOn mentioned had to be taken,
but for weeks past all efforts TO
have him make some reStttu-
tiOn were met with derisiOn and
contempt and his assurance TO
me that his British citizenship

p4r6ized by losing the position

Answer to Mr.. Lucas
'Tt is at the same time the
answer I wish to make to Mr..
Lucas statement, which state
ment is without truth or fOUnda-
ti0n."
Mr.. Lucas, although, dispoS-
sessed of furnishings at his apart
ment near Seventeenth and I
Streets Northwest, by order Of
Mrs. TownShend, said that "the
blooming thing is poppycock" and
felt confident he would be ex-
onerated of any wrong.doing.
Choirmaster Lucas today asked
the District Supreme Court to
compel Mrs. Townshend to give
more details concerning the debt
she declares he owes her.
Mr.. Lucas counsel filed mo-
ton for a better bill Of partict-
lars and a motion to quash the
writS of attachment and garnish-
ment issued against him on

FLUSH KIDNEYS
DAILY BY DRINKING
6 GLASSES WATER
Plain water best diuretic. Add
a spoonful Jad Salts to first glass
before breakfast to clear intestines
of poisons that may pass from
intestinal tract to kidneys and
invite trouble,

II you have miserable pains in your
back, or strained feeling, don't jump
to the conclusion you have bad
kidney ailment and start dosing
yourself with a lot of medicine.
Plain water is the best diuretic-
the best f1usher of the kidneys you
can find.
Drink a full glass one-half hour
before breakfast to which you've
added a spoonful of ordinary Jad
Salts. The water will flush the kid
neyS. The Jad Salts will cleanse
the intestines of the dangerous
toxins of Systemic Poisoning which
are probably the real cause of those
back pains.
According to recent discoveries of
able men of science, these toxins
frequently pass from the lower in
testines to the kidneys, causing pus
formations and pain-and inviting
trouble. Get them cut of your sys-
tenn and chances are, those pains
you've diagnosed as kidney pains"
will go like magic. You'll feel a
general easing up, less of that hor-
ribly tired and strained feeling at
your back. You'll feel more snappy
and alert than perhaps for years.
You can get the Jad Salts at any
corner drug store. Just ask for
ordinary Jad Salts. Take as sug-
gested above. Also drink two glasses
of plain water between every two
meals and at bedtime. Then if your
kidney pains" aren't completely
gone in six days or less, see a good
doctor. Try this simple way today.
You'll be glad that you did

WILD JACKASS'
SENATORS ARE
FIGHTING ALONE
Western ProgreSSives Are
Accorded No Aid by
G. 0. P. Committee.

E0 ScriDDs- Hoi5ard EeicsDGDer Alliance
DENVER, oct. 24--The Republic
an national committee and SEN
atorial campaign committee virtu-
ally have closed up shop and gone
out of business as far as aiding in
reelection of western progressive
senators is concerned. The sons of
the wild jackass," bereft Of admin
istration or party support, are hud-
ding together and going it alone.
II they win, they will be under no
obligations to the White House or
TO the party, and they will make
more of their independence than
they have in the past. Their actual
leader is Senator Borah, of Idaho.
Though he is up for reelection
himself, he has a comparatively easy
time, as always, and can afford to
answer the distress summons Of his
associates. He has sent letters and
statements out on behalf of all of
them, and he will speak in Nebraska
Tor Norris later in the month.
May Go Into Montana
If necessary. he will go into Mon
tana to campaign for Senator Walsh
Dem) against Judge A. j. Galen.
BOrah's two-room Office in Boise,
Idaho, is for the present the polit-
ical headquarters of the progressive
forces. Because of his part in the
western battle, and the failure of
the administration or normal party
agencies to supply reinforcements,
. Borah's prestige with the insurgent
group undoubtedly will be enhanced
at the December session.
Nobody who knows him doubts
that he will make the most of it in
the predicted battle with the ad-
ministration over additional farm
legislation and correction of what
ne regards as tariff evils"
Moses Avoided Boise
Boise, incidentally, was one place
which Senator Moses of New Hamp-
shire, chairman of the senatorial
campaign committee and author of
the wild jackasseS" description,
was lucky enough to avoid. Al
though he visited Helena, Mont, to
aid Galen, and It was announced
he was on his W. to see Borah, the
Wisecracking ch7lUllan never ar
rived.
Had he carried out his original
program he would have been met
at the station by two wild jack
asses" dressed up IN G. o. P. har-
ness and regalia. The Boise States
man, Republican newspaper, was
prepared to splash its front page
with cartoons portraying the sena-
tor in the midst of herd of buck
ing donkeys. He would have been
given n loud western ha ha-
or, rather, a bray. But he didn't
come. Moses has been roaming in
the western and middle western re-
gions, but he is taking no active part
in the progresSives' struggle.
