i Gaptitol City New#
Washington, D. C.?A committee
composed of the wives of all the
Senators, ussisted by the Secretary
of War and the Chief Officer of the
Dead Letter Department, finally decided
just where Mrs. tiann would
sit at the next luncheon given by
royalty or prominent homcfolk. Mrs.
Del'riest- will be moved down one
notch. Due
to the brilliant work of Sc'n
ator Cole L. Please, the Chief of Police
of the District of Columbia has
instructed all of the officers to stop
and desist and forever quit flashing
flashlights on any persons that might
be caught necking in or near the
parks or on any front porches'ansyforth.
Since this change has been
made, necking has increased over 76
per cent in the city. Of course, juntas
soon as jthe weather gets a little
bit colder, the main hug-fests will be
held in automobiles and parlor-rooms.

Pres. Hoover gave Prime Minister
MacDonakl a right good time while
he was over recently planning to outlaw
war. They sat on a log out in
the woods near the fishing shacks and
agreed to spend $989,777,655,00 each,
for light cruisers during 19 and 30,
but Great Britain can finish her 9
warshipft now under construction,
provided Uncle Sam decides not to
scrap any of his new ones. Society
is agug over the settlement of the.
fature war question, and nobody will;
ever get shot in battle from nbw on.

A yo-yo party was given at the
Italian embassy last Saturday night
and everybody from the Secretary of
Labor down to the ranking officers
in the army was present. There
were all kinds of yo-yos there, and
it looked once like the ambassador
from (Peru was going to out- yo-yo
the. entire crowd, Imt he broke hi3
string, and the honor fell to Prince
Jjn-jibsn of Japan. He was given a

information before congress andytlfc

cal leaders didn't get their morning
drams until nearly 7 o'clock, An-1 .

A great many Hoover democrats
from Florida and Texas and Virginia
have, paoki-d up and gone home after
remaining for the past 4 month*
tiwainting a plum of aome kind. They
ueemed rather discouraged when oldline
republicans got all of the apr
points in connection with the coming
ensus taking, and a great many C(f
them were heard to say that they
were learning to feel very kindly towards
democrats generally and Al.
Smith religiously.
In the Sweet Buy and Buy
The weekly meeting of the instalment
collectors of our little city was
held lust night in the auditorium.
All of the active members except 422
were present, and they came, but
wouldn't get jn . owing to the crowd.
Bill Dodger gave a very interesting
talk on "How to Got There
First/' He explained that a good
collector is the collector who always
stands bo close to the paymaster's
window that he is the first guy to
find out how much his "prey" draws.
He told the boys that he was always f
2 days ahead of the grocer, 4 ahead
of the doctor, and 2 months ahead
of the preacher.

Check Flasher gave a 4-minute discourse
on "Tactful Tactics." He insisted
that the quickest way to get
pay for a radio is to begin tering
down the outside aerial and mumble
constantly while doing so that the
best programs are yet to come. He
said he never permitted any of his
"clients*' to tote their money for a
greater distance than 30 feet. He
even koaifcs the bootlegger by 5 minute*.
nmu?1
O. D. Scoundrel was the third
speaker. His subject was?the
Money or Else." He prevailed on tb^
boys in the feather-bed game to do
their collecting just before feed-time.
He generally waits till the old man
has removed his britches and turned
d?wn the kivver, and he lays low till
the <jld woman slides into her fleeced
lined night gown, and then he goes
in and tells 'em that it is either the
cash right then or a sweet night of
rapose on the floor. He hides arouiyi
ifc his trxick aiid i never cuts off ttfe
motor while proceeding on the inB?ie.
?... Ima Dedbeet with the "Ride-While
You-Pay Company" informed th
boys that it was pure blank ruoriiiji
after the folks who owe money. H<
said that his followers made a breal
for his joint just as soon as thej
were paid off, and he usually had th<
pleasure of opening their envelopes
His motto is 'MSellum and Bindem.'
He takes a mortgage on everything
they ever owned except the cat, and
he doesn't hafter to bother his head
about the pay-end of the matter. He
bellowed forth the fact that . . "Folks
ain't goner walk no more," and ho
knew his chassis. ~ ; .
A round table was held after ihe
main speeches, and crackers and balogny
was served at 10 cents a hunk,
;ash in advance, by the committee on
;ntertainment. During the pro and
ion discussions, many good points
vere brought out. Some of tl^p boys
vear "tective" buttons and keep them
lisplayed during the engagem^t^
ie said it had a wonderful effect on
he folks who are afraid of the law.
). I. Chassem felt that kind wocds
tnd soft soap were useful instrunents
in the matter of getting the
oin, but the general impression was
hat the seller should tie 'em tight
ind the roiinding-up would be easy.
Vfter singing "I am waiting for y6u,"
he meeting was brought to a close.
Plotted to Kill 'Husband

Vi. Colen and Mrs. Lucy Culler, con- j
ricted of conspiracy to murder Robie
duller, husband of Mrs. Culler, toiay
faced prison sentences of from
three to five and two to three years

?Thc body of Mrs. Cammie Garrison
Tucker, formerly of Anderson and
Atlanta, who died thirteen years ago,
was disinterred from an Anderson
enietery Tuesday; and certain organs
aken therefrom are under examinaiow
by the state chemist. There is
t suspicion that Mrs. Tucker, who is
aid to have been worth around $3, 00,000,
most of her holdings being
