Donovan was rushing to meet
ing with government officials
to appeal for aid for the Dis
trict.
AS he left his office he called
to his secretary, Miss Catherine
Sadler, and asked that she re-
mind him the next day to keep
an appointment at the Interior
Department.
The next day Miss Sadler
donned her most knowing smile
and reminded:
Don't forget Major to keep
your appointment at the On.

Keeps Appointment
The storm failed to prevent
Francis A. Sebring, Police Court
clerk, from keeping a District
building appointment despite
his "a years.
Sebring was one Of two Dis
trict employees who was given
special exemption from the re-
tirement provisions of the econ
omy act by former President
Hoover although he had served
SO years and already had been
given two time extensions by
the District government.
He began Police Court service
in the old Church Building at

The pacifistic tendencies of
Representative Ross Collins and
his attempts to economic on
Army expenses are we'll known.
Therefore, according to re-
ports, he was somewhat sur.
prised to learn that Jack Nc.
Fall, House Appropriations
Committee clerk, was riding
Fort Myer horses from time to
time.
To curb his activity and save
the Army expense, Ross Is said
to have called the fort and ad-
vised:
"COlOnel I don't mind having
young McFall ride but he should
use a mule. Give him one of
those mules like they have down
In Mississippi"

the second digest Of the laws Of the corpora

According to the meager tax records Of the

memorandum shows the assessment for 1884
was 20 cents q foot, or $819 in all. In 1889, it
was increased to 80 cents foot, or $2,l86.

Death of Thorne Fitz Randolph,

college of pharmacy, was due to
wood alcohol poisoning, DR.. Rollo N.
Harger, associate professor of bio
chemistry and toxicology at Indiana
university school of medicine, said
today following an autopsy.
Mr., Randolph died last Sunday
night. DR.. Harger said he drew no
conclusions from the evidence found
at the autopsy. Wood alcohol is not
found in the natural fermentation
of beverages and wood alcohol in
drinks either would have to be put
in deliberately or find it's way in
through criminal negligence of some
individual" DR.. Harger said"
Investigation has not disclosed
the source of the wood alcohol"
