FRANKLIN IS TO LECTURE HERE Also Will Hold Conferences With Commission on Swimming Pools. Prof. W. s>. Franklin of the depart ment of physics of 1-ielugh Universitj is to visit Washington the latter pari of this week to deliver a number 01 lectures and also to hold a conference on swimming pools with the commission which at present is making a survey of the city under the auspice? of the federal children's bureau and the District department of playgrounds. Prof. Franklin has expressed the hope that a delegation of Washington business men will be present at the conference, which is to be held at the New Willard Hotel Thursday evening at J> o'clock. He is to deliver a lecture before the Physics Club of the bureau of standards Friday afternoon, an oxper.nu nial lecture Saturday evening before the Washington Philosophical Society on "Some Phenomena of Fluid Motion and the Curved Flight of a Ha Me Hall." Thursday morning he is to address the pupils of Central Hi eh School and the following- day is to talk to tin* pupils c»f the McKinlev Aianual luiuiiit; School. In tlieee- talks he is to contrast present day schooling with that of the youth in Kansas during pioneer [lays, his subject being "Bill's School and Mine." Prof. Franklin is an advocate of plenty of exercise for the youth of the nation. Expressing the hope tint the business men may take- particular interest in the conference which is being planned, he says: "In my opinion, the great probb-m or' physical ami industrial education cannot be solved by school people alone, even if they had unlimited funds at their disposal: our business men and our manufacturers must help. 1 say 'must" advisedly, for never was there a cleaner prophecy than Nietsche's, w;hich can now be worded As being fulfilled in terror, The time has come when men must think of nothing but education," and by education T do not mean inconsequential bookishness: and neither did N'ietsche." UtHM LtAUUt UKUo PREPAREDNMR WAR Greater Army and Navy Boosted by American Defense League With Fears of Future. Special Dispatch to The Star. NEW YORK, November -b.~ A new organization to force the creation of a greater army and greater navy has b^en formed under the name of American Defense League, with temporary offices at 13 Broad street. The promoters are seeking to get a large enrollment of members, with nominal dues of $1 a year. It is proposed, as the literature of the league states, "to get men not necessarily prominent in any way, hut men who realize the gravity of the situation." Purposes of League. The constitution of the new organization says the purpose of the league is "to promote the "efficiency of the United States army and navy; to bring huuui me enlargement and strengthening of our military defenses; to create and foster public opinion and bring about legislative action in favor of a larger and more efficient army, navy and air fleet, and. in general, to do anything and all things designed to render the United States more secure from foreign attacks, and to do anything and all tilings needful to carry out such design." In a statemen given out on behalf af the American Defense League today the fear was expressed that the nations now engaged in war would seek commercial expansion in South America after the war, and that the conquerors might seek colonization fields in South America or Canada. An Imperiling of the Monro#4 doctrine, it was pointed out, would be almost inevitable. No Doubt About It. "There is no doubt about the position the United States is in," says the statement. "The truth ma}- be learned from lii*- leporid yi me secretaries of the Army and Navy, from Col. Roosevelt's articles, from Representative Gardner's speeches or from the annual almanacs published by newspapers. Our navy is third, is not fourth in rank among the great, nations, although our coast line is far longer; our army of SO,000 is negligible; we are without an air fleet; we have neither arms nor equipment ready, and it takes six to nine months to make trained soldiers out of citizens. "It is estimated that less than per cent of Americans have learned to handle the rifle or other lirearms. We must realize that our position may be neither safe nor dignified at the end ol the European conilicl." CHRISTMAS SHOPPING ON. Season Begins This Week With Pros' pect of Good Business. The Christmas shopping season hegins this week. Washington merchants are expecting brisk trading, according to statements made yesterday by Secretary Charles J.

The high cost of living was attacked j5 yesterday at a new angle, when As- * sistant Secretary Newton of the Treas- \ ury Department. granted permission to s the city of Dallas, Tex., in establish a |c free open-air market on the site for a * federal building recently purchased by ^ I tlie government. tTider tlie arrange- t ments with the Treasury Department farmers and truck gardeners can place 'their products on sale without the pay- meni of market fees, and residents of 'Dallas will have an opportunity to buy! such products directly. If the experiment work:-- well in Dallas, Mr. Newton said, the same plan may be adopted in other cities. There are several hundred unoccupied build- ing sites throughout the country. in the ordinary course of events many of these will be incumbered for several years to come. "1 do not know," said Mr. Newton, "that this will result in any modification of prices, but if it shall the experiment will be worth the effort. T do not know where the trouble lies,: but somewhere on the road between the farm and the city kitchen some- tiling happens that makes all products I of the farm and garden extremely ex- pensive." | QUEEN MARY PRAISES I WORK OF RED CROSS Makes Inspection of Care of 1 Wounded Men.

The fowl was hatched and aised by Enoch G. Johnson, a resident f Alta Vista, who found the nugget. Mr. Johnson was preparing a nuth- 1 er of chickens for market Friday aft- moon, and while so engaged cut open he crop of one of the fowls. A flash f yellow metal caught his eye, and n examination Mr. Johnson found the litter came from a small nugget. Hav- ' ig had experience with such nugets, Mr. Johnson at once recognized hat it was real gold, but to make cerain he had the negget tested by a manufacturing jeweler in this city, rho pronounced it pure gold. J Product of His Farm, He Says. The nugget was not large, being only Lbout the size of a small grain of corn, rhat it was picked up on the Johnson ilace is certain. Mr. Johnson declares, J >ecause the chicken in the crop of vhich it was found was hatched and aised on the place and had never been iway from Mr. Johnson's land. It has been said for many years that he territory surrounding Washington ontains gold, and at many places, it s stated, gold dust has oeen washed n small quantities from the sands of he creeks. Very few nuggets have ver been found, however, even small »nes, the gold usually being in the orm of fine dust and in quantities so >mnll as In mnko It hnrrllv u-nrf h th« tbor of washing it from the gravel.

November 28..At a pecial meeting Tuesday the Fairfax ounty board of supervisors closed the unting season to non-resident hunters xi and after December 1. The action f the board was prompted by sugges- ions from the federal and state, au- horities on account of the foot and nouth disease. Belle Morton, a colored cook of Fair- ax. who was recently indicted for nurder of a year-old infant by starvaion and neglect, was found guilty this veek by a jury in the Fairfax circuit ourt, but on account of the circum- tances was only given a tine of $25 nd costs. , Bishop Confirms Class of Thirty. Rt. Rev. D. J. O'Connell, Bishop of tichmond, administered conlirination 3 a class of thirty at St. James' Cathoc Church. West Falls Church, Sunday uorning. The service was preceded by sermon by Bishop O'Connell, and folr>wed by mass offered by the pastor, tev. John Van Inglegem. A class of hildren also made their first com- lunion at the early morning service. At the November term of the circuit ourt. Judge J. B. T. Thornton of lanassas presiding, with John D. Gar- ett as foreman, true bills of indict- uiit were returned against Jack Hen- erson and Joshua Henderson, alias oslah Henderson, for murder; against N'ade Perry for felonious assault, and gainst Wade Perry for shooting with ntent to kill; against Henry Boden. Vade Trittul and George Diesel, for nsrhreaking with intent to commit axceny. Sentences Imposed. Capias awarded against the Henderons and Perry; Boden, Trittul and »iesel pleaded guilty and were senenced to one year each in the penlentiary. T. Russell Gather was admitted as ounsel and attorney to practice in the ''aii fax county court. The will of Panel Baker was admitted to probate. Bariara J. Baker qualified as executor. P. V. Staats, whose home was re- * ently destroyed by tire, has begun the t onstruction of a home at Edgelee. > LENNON WILL SELL CLUB. ro Dispose of St. Paul Franchise, Tebeau Wins Suit. [»«-« i;si to The Star. CHICAGO, November L's..Regardless f whether the option to purchase the t. Paul franchise of the American Asociation is exercised by J. W. Norton, eting in behalf of a syndicate of St. 'aul business men, Owner George E. .ennon, according to confidential inormation received from the Twin City, ill sever his active connection with J ase ball, probably by January 1. The option held by Mr. Norton exires with the end of this month, but ,s here will be no difficulty in obtainlg an extension, provided other bid- * era with either rash or check book in 1 and are not already on the scene, for 1 'wner l^nnon winhe-j to pive St. Paul t r.«t cuanee to retain its franchise. . here seems to b»- considerable diffl- ulty in ?.rousiug financial enthusiasih, ,>r the Saints iop.i so much money last c ear that the proposition does not look 1 ttractive as an investment in these ^ ays of tight money. President Wathen of Louisville has tood pat in his determination to re- c ppoint Jack Ilayden as manager of fi lie Colonels for i'«lo. despite the fact « hat the I^ouisville fans do not seem r o regard Hay den with popular favor, i .ouisville has been a pennant con- t ender under the two years of Hay- < en's leadership, and Wathen deter- 1 lined t«» let well enough alone. I'resient Chiving ton several times has gone I ut of his way to speak highly of the t blonels' field leader. d Word iias been received here from wner Oeorge Teboau of the Kansas ' ity Blues that the supreme court has 1 rtirmed the decision of the lower > ourts upholding his right to exercise c n option of purchase on the ground c coupled by the Kansas City park. 1 'his case has been in lltlgution for our or live years, and has been fought ii along the line. The property originally was ooiameci t mler lease with au option to purhast, "or which tender was made and eiused. The option price was said to 1 e under $100,000, as against a present r aluation of between $200,000 and $300.00. according to who makes the valation, so owner Tebeau has a handome profit on the transaction. F une action taken by the National Asociation of Professional Base Ball f eagues at Omaha seems generally to are been overlooked. That was the t eservation of territory for the Westrn Canada League lor 1913 whether r not the league operates. That such request might be made was forecast a efore the meeting. t PROTESTS PROPOSED j LOCATION OF SCHOOL, A. Gh Herrmann Declares That Site Recommended by Subcommittee Is Not Desirable. ' j" [V> the Editor of The Star: J I have just inspected the location for the Eastern High School, recently recommended by a subcommittee of the board of education. This land is located between 17th and 19th streets. East Capitol and B streets northeast. It contains about thirteen and three- s fourths acres. I found it one of the most uneven pieces of land In this sec- ^ tion of the city. Eighteenth street is h dug through the center of it and makes b a canal some twelve or fifteen feet deep and seventy-flve feet wide. The o northeast part of the land is forty feet t 'over than the southwest. It is likely p it would take $100,000 to make this tract level. t At the last meeting of the Southeast d Washington Citizens' Association we j, recommended that the squares lying dl- .. rectly west of the Jail building be purchased. In that case the school build- s lng could be placed at 16th street and P Massachusetts avenue southeast and the remainder of the land used for rec- a reatlon purposes. 1 understand the two squares lying between 16th and 18th streets, Massachusetts avenue and B street southeast, containing about eleven and a quarter acres, have been s offered for the school site. c This would seem to be sufficient for t any school site, but more can be pro- t -uiiu u uesjrea. me other square to the east, containing about seven acres, is owned partly by Georgetown University and has not been offered, bat " could easily be condemned and acquired cheaply, as the whole square is carried on the assessment books of the District ^ at 5 cents a square foot. This would ' make over eighteen acres and can all c be acquired for less than the appropria- 1 tion of $150,000. 1 The site selected by the subcommittee a places the school some three or four :i squares farther away from our section. > A large share of the students who will attend this school will come from d Southeast Washington, as the territory e east of South Capitol and south of Kast j Capitol streets is built solid to the a river, while the territory lying beyond t the Anacostia river contains some s twenty thousand population. These children will have a long way j to walk, even if it is placed at the lo- t cation suggested above. The other lo- a cation is about a quarter of a mile j farther. I think the school would be j located much nearer the center of pop- r illation if placed somewhere in the vi- t clnifv 1 J mniiaai.iiuoriia HVeilUe. 1 nere ] the land is perfectly level, and as there j are but few houses on It could be purchased for much less than the site se- < lected.

UtHM LtAUUt UKUoPREPAREDNMR WARGreater Army and Navy Boosted byAmerican Defense League With

Fears of Future.

Special Dispatch to The Star.

NEW YORK, November -b.~ A neworganization to force the creation of a

greater army and greater navy hasb^en formed under the name of AmericanDefense League, with temporaryoffices at 13 Broad street.The promoters are seeking to get a

large enrollment of members, withnominal dues of $1 a year. It is proposed,as the literature of the leaguestates, "to get men not necessarilyprominent in any way, hut men whorealize the gravity of the situation."

Purposes of League.The constitution of the new organizationsays the purpose of the league

is "to promote the "efficiency of theUnited States army and navy; to bringhuuui me enlargement and strengtheningof our military defenses; to createand foster public opinion and bringabout legislative action in favor of alarger and more efficient army, navyand air fleet, and. in general, to doanything and all things designed torender the United States more securefrom foreign attacks, and to do anythingand all tilings needful to carryout such design."In a statemen given out on behalfaf the American Defense League todaythe fear was expressed that the

nations now engaged in war wouldseek commercial expansion in SouthAmerica after the war, and that theconquerors might seek colonizationfields in South America or Canada. AnImperiling of the Monro#4 doctrine, itwas pointed out, would be almost inevitable.

No Doubt About It."There is no doubt about the position

the United States is in," says the statement."The truth ma}- be learned fromlii*- leporid yi me secretaries of theArmy and Navy, from Col. Roosevelt'sarticles, from Representative Gardner'sspeeches or from the annual almanacspublished by newspapers. Our navy isthird, is not fourth in rank among thegreat, nations, although our coast lineis far longer; our army of SO,000 isnegligible; we are without an air fleet;we have neither arms nor equipmentready, and it takes six to nine monthsto make trained soldiers out of citizens."It is estimated that less than per

cent of Americans have learned tohandle the rifle or other lirearms. Wemust realize that our position may beneither safe nor dignified at the end olthe European conilicl."

'their products on sale without the pay-meni of market fees, and residents of'Dallas will have an opportunity to buy!such products directly.

If the experiment work:-- well in Dallas,Mr. Newton said, the same planmay be adopted in other cities. Thereare several hundred unoccupied build-ing sites throughout the country. inthe ordinary course of events many ofthese will be incumbered for severalyears to come.

"1 do not know," said Mr. Newton,"that this will result in any modificationof prices, but if it shall the experimentwill be worth the effort. Tdo not know where the trouble lies,:but somewhere on the road betweenthe farm and the city kitchen some-tiling happens that makes all products

WET OF GOLD TAKENFROM CROP OF CHICKEN

3nd Expected to Cause KlondikeRush on Nearby Maryland

Community.

iiegiuenis or Alia vista, Montgomery''ounty, Md., anticipate something inhe nature of a Klondike rush to that 1

icinity as the result of the finding ofnugget of gold in the crop of a

hicken. The fowl was hatched andaised by Enoch G. Johnson, a residentf Alta Vista, who found the nugget.Mr. Johnson was preparing a nuth- 1er of chickens for market Friday aft-moon, and while so engaged cut openhe crop of one of the fowls. A flashf yellow metal caught his eye, andn examination Mr. Johnson found thelitter came from a small nugget. Hav- '

ig had experience with such nugets,Mr. Johnson at once recognizedhat it was real gold, but to make cerainhe had the negget tested by a

manufacturing jeweler in this city,rho pronounced it pure gold. J

Product of His Farm, He Says.The nugget was not large, being onlyLbout the size of a small grain of corn,rhat it was picked up on the Johnsonilace is certain. Mr. Johnson declares, J>ecause the chicken in the crop ofvhich it was found was hatched andaised on the place and had never beeniway from Mr. Johnson's land.It has been said for many years thathe territory surrounding Washingtonontains gold, and at many places, its stated, gold dust has oeen washedn small quantities from the sands ofhe creeks. Very few nuggets havever been found, however, even small»nes, the gold usually being in theorm of fine dust and in quantities so>mnll as In mnko It hnrrllv u-nrf h th«tbor of washing it from the gravel.

Quest Likely to Follow.The finding of even a small nugget,

t is stated, is unusual enough to atractattention, and it is expected manyreceptacle will be temporarily conertedinto a gold washing pan around

PROTESTS PROPOSED jLOCATION OF SCHOOL,

A. Gh Herrmann Declares That SiteRecommended by Subcommittee

Is Not Desirable. ' j"[V> the Editor of The Star: JI have just inspected the location for

the Eastern High School, recently recommendedby a subcommittee of theboard of education. This land is locatedbetween 17th and 19th streets.East Capitol and B streets northeast.It contains about thirteen and three- sfourths acres. I found it one of themost uneven pieces of land In this sec- ^tion of the city. Eighteenth street is hdug through the center of it and makes ba canal some twelve or fifteen feetdeep and seventy-flve feet wide. The onortheast part of the land is forty feet t'over than the southwest. It is likely pit would take $100,000 to make thistract level. tAt the last meeting of the Southeast dWashington Citizens' Association we j,recommended that the squares lying dl- ..rectly west of the Jail building be purchased.In that case the school build- s

lng could be placed at 16th street and PMassachusetts avenue southeast andthe remainder of the land used for rec- areatlon purposes. 1 understand the twosquares lying between 16th and 18thstreets, Massachusetts avenue and Bstreet southeast, containing abouteleven and a quarter acres, have been soffered for the school site. cThis would seem to be sufficient for tany school site, but more can be pro- t-uiiu u uesjrea. me other square tothe east, containing about seven acres,is owned partly by Georgetown Universityand has not been offered, bat "

could easily be condemned and acquiredcheaply, as the whole square is carriedon the assessment books of the District ^at 5 cents a square foot. This would 'make over eighteen acres and can all cbe acquired for less than the appropria- 1tion of $150,000. 1The site selected by the subcommittee aplaces the school some three or four :i

squares farther away from our section. >A large share of the students who willattend this school will come from dSoutheast Washington, as the territory eeast of South Capitol and south of Kast jCapitol streets is built solid to the ariver, while the territory lying beyond tthe Anacostia river contains some stwenty thousand population.These children will have a long way jto walk, even if it is placed at the lo- tcation suggested above. The other lo- acation is about a quarter of a mile jfarther. I think the school would be jlocated much nearer the center of pop- rillation if placed somewhere in the vi- tclnifv 1J mniiaai.iiuoriia HVeilUe. 1 nere ]the land is perfectly level, and as there jare but few houses on It could be purchasedfor much less than the site se- <lected.
