RESTAURANT MAN
FOUND MURDERED
-Christos HaraIampidis Be-
lieved Victim of Robbers,
Who Crushed Skull.

Slain In what police believe was a
fight during the night with robbers, the
body of Christos Haralampidis, Cougar
old proprietor of the Acropolis restau-
rant, Sill Ninth street, was found this
morning in his ransacked living quar-
tiers over the restaurant. His skull was
smashed by brick found lying beside
the body. One arrest has been made.
There was evidence of desperate
struggle in the room. One pocket Of the
mans clothing was turned out, but
whether anything was missing in the
disheveled room has not been ascer-
tanned. The brick with which the man
was murdered apparently had been used
to cover q rat hole.
Mary Bowers, colored, an employe,
wentsto awaken the man, as usual. about
ESQ o'clock this morning. Hearing no
answer to her knock, she opened the
door. When she saw the disarray In the
room, she ran screaming from the place.
At Eleventh street and Pennsylvania
avenue she finally found policeman,
Louis Hale of No precinct, who went
with her to the address and found the
body in a vacant room at the rear OF
the house.
Numerous finger prints were found
about the place. An investigation by
Capt Frank S. w. Burke, commander
of No. ! precinct, and Lieut.. Edward j.
Kelly of the homicide squad failed to
reveal any motive other than robbery
for the killing 1t was believed that the
man had surprised the robbers at their
work and was killed in struggle that
followed. His body probably was dragged
into the vacant room.
Little is known of the slain mans
habits. The restaurant he conducted
had a clientele restricted almost entirely
to Greeks. Police do not know whether
Haralampidis was in the habit of keep
ing any considerable sum OF money in
his living quarters. Investigators have
found pair of pants and shoes, blood
stained, which may furnish clues. The
man arrested as a suspect is held at
first precinct.

MARKS, Miss, January IA huge
gap was torn in the Cassiday Bayou
Levee two miles south of Helen, near
here. by charge of dynamite set of
during the night by unidentified persons.
Bloodhounds were ordered here this
morning from Clarksdale to aid in q

In the event of further rains, it was
feared that the opening in the embank-
ment, while relieving conditions III
other sections, would permit water to
spread over several hundred acres OF
land In the immediate vicinity OF the
break. If the rainfall ceases. however,
drainage district officials expect little
damage.
Workmen were sent to the levee today
in an effort to close the gap, and an

Bayou levee was patrolled by armed
guards for several weeks after attmepts

a WEST POINTERS
ARE DISCHARGED
Appointee Of Oscar De Priest
Among Army Cadets Who
FIunked Exams.
~ the Associated Press.

WEST POINT, N. Y. January IA
Sixty-four cadets, including Alonzo Par
ham, colored, of Chicago, were honor
ably discharged from the United States
Military Academy today because of fail
ure to pass mid-term academic exani-
nations, Mai. Gen. William r. Smith,
superintendent, announced.
All of the cadets who were discharged
also failed to pass the written general
review held early In December, he said.
They were then given another oppor-
tunity to remain in the Military Acad-
envy by taking a final examination
which, If passed, would have put them
in good standing.
Seventy-three successfully passed the
test.
Cadet Parham was appointed to the
academy by Representative De Priest of
Chicago.
General Smith stated that grades of
the plebe class this year show an i'm
provement over last year when 81
cadets or 1877 per cent were discharged
for failure to maintain the required
academic standards. This year only
lis per cent were discharged. The
figures, he said, reveal that men with
college training prior to admission stand
the best chance Of completing the
course.
Forty-six of the cadets who failed to
pass this time were deficient in DAILY
one subject and will be extended the
privilege of determination in March.
Parham failed in only one subject
mathematics-and, therefore will be
eligible to take an examination In
March for re-entry to the academy.

At special meeting of the board
Of directors of Rocky Glen sanator~

common stock dividend was declar-
ed of soc per share on stock of rec
ord Sept. 80, and payable Oct. Is,
1880 Preferred stock dividends
are payable semi-annually, Jan. l,

The sanatorium has all beds filled
and has a waiting list of 2S pa
tients at this time During the past
several months the sanatorium has
been redecorated both inside and
outside and many improvements for
the comfort and treatment of the
patients and for scientific study of
tuberculosis have been completed.
Rocky Glen sanatorium is growing
rapidly and extending its enviable
reputation in all directions.
The board of directors feel that
under the present market conditions
1t is best to withhold plans for the
hospital addition until conditions
improve Sufficient stock has not
been sold to start the additions and
1t was deemed advisable to with
hold construction until the spring,
when it is hoped better market con-
ditions will prevail In the mean
time, investment can be made
through application direct to the
sanatorium, it desired.

The American Eagle

The eagle as an emblem of the
United States was formally chosen
in 1872, the records show The
bird appears on various flags and
standards, of the United States,
army and navy, the president and
his cabinet, several OF the coins, not
to mention the eagle over the circle
on the election ballots The bald
eagle is found in all our states and
Alaska Alaska, in 1917, complain
ed their fish and game were dimin-
ishing, due in part to the eagle.
They passed law placing bounty
on the bird. The law was still in
force in 1890, and the feet Of up
wards of $4,000 birds have been re-
deemed; some for twenty-five cents
each. After century and half
the congress of the United States is
considering a bill to make the kill
ing of the American eagle anywhere
in the territorial limits of the United
States, federal offense.
