BRUISES TOKEN
OF BRIDGE LEAP

On a Gallinger Hospital cot
IStrubey j. Bowles. 34-year-o4d
painter, 1900 block Meridian Pl
IN. w., awoke today with only a
few minor bruises as evidence of
his 60-foot plunge from a bridge at
Sixteenth Street and Spring Road
Northwest, last night, but-oh,
what a head.
Shortly after 7 o'clock last night,
Bowles jumped or fell onto the
front pages. Plunging from the
span, Bowles landed on muddy
terrace near a roadway under the
bridge. His apparently lifeless
body was found by C. T. Kellogg,
1900 block Twelfth st. N. W., who
was driving past.
Police of No. 10 Precinct and an
ambulance from Emergency Hos
pital were summoned. Rushed 70
the hospital. Bowles was found to
be suffering from only few minor
bruises about the legs. Police
ordered him to Gallinger Hospital
for observation.
Bowles' wife told police her hus-
band had been drinking heavily
prior to his plunge.

Tree Incident Ends
As TGbby Leaps,
Lands Safely

Midnight, husky black alley
cat, left seven tiremen, a police
man and a representative of the
Animal Rescue Squad holding the
bag today when she jumped from
"a 65-foot perch in tree a few min
utes ahead of what would have
been a gallant rescue.
Miss Anne Kiess, of 3051 N st.
N. W., had called the firemen
after Midnight had spent two
days in poplar tree in the Kiess'
back yard.
H. B. Barker, second battalion
chief, and hook and ladder No. S
responded. Private C. A. Beck
started up the tree when a limb
snapped and dropped him IL feet.
The result was skinned knee for
Private Beck.
The firemen then hauled out
their 50-foot ladder and Private
A. T. FELTON, assembled and started
to cut off the top of the tree Is
feet below the cat. At this point,
Mrs. Luta Hendricks, owner of the
premises, objected to running the
tree, so new Strateg..' was tried.
Preston Thomas, 300-pound Negro
agent of the Animal Rescue
League, arrived with a "catpole"
and cage.
In the meantime, Private FELTON,
was prodding tabby with the blunt
end of a 15-foot cutting hook.
After giving the hook a couple of
good smacks, Midnight finally be.
came disguised with the whole
business.

there is being considered the possibility, the

But prohibition brought about the drinking of
women. The best of us gals took to slipping pink
gin and other mixtures in the home When
prohibition was repealed drinking had become
universal habit. Men and women had learned to
drink together. Even the Metropolitan began
to feel the blight that soon thereafter set upon
all strictly mems clubs. At lunch time pleasant
group dropped in But after the bridge players
left at 4:30 the club was more like mausoleum
than jovial gathering place.
Will Brighten Up Things
Perhaps. said the members. the more radical
ones if we ask the ladies in they will have their
little parties here. Things will be brighter and
the finances likewise will cheer up.
Although the notice does not speak of this
particular plan. some of the gentlemen of the
club want to turn that big room now used as
gallery by the Museum of Modern Art, into
cocktail room for the ladies who may or may not
ask the gentleman in, according to their mood
The distressing part of the clubs breaking
down of barriers is that the idea of having ladies
in is entirely the plan of the men, The women
didn't ask for it. The sight of the pretty museum
ladies' fitting about their gallery, converted the
crustest bachelors to the idea that it might nicely
hven up the club to have the ladies about.
The Metropolitan is almost the last of the
once exclusively male Washington clubs to
Succumb to women. The Army and Navy Club,
the Cosmos Club, the University and the Racquet
clubs (the last two recently converted into one
organization) have admitted women into segre-
gated areas hear (thiS is a Secret) that few
OF the Metropolitan gentlemen have gone quite
mad. They are prepared to outdo all other clubs
in their hospitality to the ladies. They ask: why

'CUT IN REALTY
TAX PROPOSED
FOR DISTRICT.
Fiscal Bill May Go
To House Monday
BY JULIA A. BONWIT

The subcommittee on District
taxation today was on the verge
of introducing bill for reducing
the tax on real estate by Is cents
a $100 and for a graduated busi,
ness privilege tax.
A tax on income, to which the
subcommittee is committed. is also
being considered in connection
with determination of a rate base.
HOPES FOR DECISION
Representative Jack Nichols
CD, of Oklahoma. chairman of
the House District fiscal affairs
subcommittee which has charge
of the tax bill, said he hoped to
have the bill ready to introduce
no later than Monday.
The subcommittee, he said. has
practically decided on $1.60 rate
on real estate, which represents
a cut of IS cents under the cur
rent rate and a 10-cent rise over
the prior rate. Last year, the rate
was raised from $3.50 to $1.75.
In addition, the graduated busi-
ness privilege tax has been almost
entirely worked out, to be as
sessed against gross profits, begin
ming at one-tenth of one per cent
and graduating to the two-fifths
of one per cent, which is now a
flat rate levied against gross re-
ceipts.
INCOME LEVY
The income tax, which Mr..
Nichols opposes at present, will be
written into the bill, although
some trouble is expected when it
reaches the full committee.
Representative Nichols is op-
posed to raising more money than
is actually needed to meet the
deficit. Originally, he predicted
that one tax would be sufficient,
but he said today that it may re-
quire both the graduated business
levy and the smaller real estate
tax.
The 1889 appropriation bill for
the District, which is now in the
Senate for consideration. having
passed the House yesterday, ere
ates a deficit of $2,600,OO0 on the
premise that the business privilege
tax this year will yield $3,000,000.
The revenue from this tax actu-
ally will be much less, however,
according to District officials.

wriggling thing that looked mile long, stuck
right under my nose. I gave one awful yell and
started running, and didn't stop until l got to
the door Of the market. had always thought

chicken, which he was trying to put into paper
bag. I watched fascinated, wondering which
was going to win out, the chicken or the man.
1t was a pathetic sight. Just as he had got it's
head into the paper bag, the darn thing broke
wide open and the chicken started running down
the street squawking. The poor little man looked
so helpless. Then I and three or four others
started after that chicken, and we soon brought
it back to him.
