very tall young man (almoSt

ship with q rifle on the
swampy flats behind the
White House. A gentleman
comes along and asks what
he is shooting.
No frogs today" the young
man says, so I put up that
barrel for q target" The gen.
tieman says: 7 saw you fire
twice but there is only one
hole In barrel"
The young man answers:
"On the second shot aimed
for the bullet hole"
The gentleman, who is
President Jackson, asks the
name Of the young man, who
is John C. Rives of Kentucky.
You must meet my friend
Frank Blair Of Kentucky. He
Is a good shot"
And that's how Francis
Preston Blair met the man
who became his partner in
publishing the Washington
Globe.
Blair built the presidential
guest house on Pennsylvania
avenue and Rives (it was
pronounced Reeves) built an
equally elegant mansion on
E street where the Munsey
Building now stands.

A GSA spokesman explained
that the Grange was given the
H street site, just beyond De-
catur House. In exchange for
its building and site on Jack
son place which faces LAfay-
ette Square.
The old grange building and
others facing the square will
be torn down to make way for
the new executive department
offlce building.
Plans Were Changed
Originally the GSA planned
to build q new court building
on the west side Of the square
wrapping it around Blair House
and Decatur House. The back
and one side of the new Grange
building would have been hid
den behind the court building
However, plans were changed
and II was decided to build q
new executive ONCE building
on the west side. with perhaps
open plazas that might show
the back and side Of the new
grange building.
The grange then went to
Congress and asked for money
to face the back and side Of its
building with limestone so II
would be in keeping with the
proposed executive ONCE build
ing. the GSA spokesman said,
Instead Of passing a special
appropriations bill for the
money. Congress instructed the
GSA to include the $4,000 in
its budget which was approved
last year. the GSA man added

Court News

Two years in prison for the
! theft of SIS worth of booze?
A murmer was heard in Sussex
County Superior Court last week
when Judge James B. Carey pro-
noqnced sentence.
However, Judge Carey told the
accused, Neal James Marsh, so, oi
the Laurel area, that it wasn't the
value of the booze that counted
it was the fact that he had broken
into the Marvil Package Store neal
laurel to steal it.
Deputy Attorney General Fred
erick p. Whitney produced sheai
of eight pages of closely typed
terial representing Marsh's
record in the past. Many of the
charges were for the same offense
breaking into a liquor store tC
steal liquor.
Judge Carey said, 81 can find
no circumstance to justify mercy.
Deputy Attorney General Whit.
ney brought 26 defendants into
court, all charged with felonies and
each with separate ramifications Oi
detail and background.
1t was what is known as plead
guilty day" when many persons
arrested since the last Grand Jury
meeting waive their rights for a
Grand Jury hearing and are will
ing to take pot luck" with the
law.
Ronald Heath, 27, of Rehoboth,
charged with intent to rape an
11-year-old girl at a colored hotel
in Rehoboth on Oct. 30, entered
a guilty plea and Deputy Attorney
General Whitney said that he
would arrange a mental test be-
fore sentence.
j. Fair, who had been involved
in what was termed "a sort of a
duel" and were each charged with
assault on the other, were given
sentences of three months, from
the date of the duel on Sept. IL.
The majority of the defendants
were given pre-sentence investiga-
tions, including two youths, James
Albert Johnson, 18, and his bro
ther, Phillip L. Johnson, 21, both
of Lewes, charged with burglary
at the Best Feed Store in Lewes
Sept 5. They are both also in
volved in criminal cases in Kent
County.
Perhaps the most interesting of
the cases was the grand larceny
charge against three we'll known
Milford residents1Carl w. Huber,
"a; Irving S Wells, 35, and Mrs.
Catherine Paulson, 20, for carting
away the safe from the home of
Roland Sharp at Lincoln Oct, 18.
The safe and its contents were
listed as valued at $4,150. They
took it away in the open trunk
of Mrs. Paulson's car.
Mrs. Paulson, mother of several
children, denied actual completely

Questioned by Judge Carey, HUI
Der said that "street talk" placed
a large sum of hidden money in
the Sharp safe.
They were all given pre-sen-
