Randall. 20 K_street sontheast, and Miss Edith Embrey, 409 4th street northeast, were thrown from the automobile and injured. They refused hospital treatment and were driven to Miss Embrey’s home. Murphy was held by the police to answer a charge of col- liding. While crossing in front of 2229} { Vermont avenue last night about 9:30 o'clock, Barbara Gaskins, colored, seven vears old. Vermont ave- nue, was knocked n by an auto- mobile and slightly injured. She was able to go home unassisted, the po- lice reported. Joseph F.

James A. Geary of the Cath- olic University ridiculed the recent statement of Premier Lloyd Georsze comparing the Irish insurrection to the civil war in this country. “There is_no analogy,” said Father Geary. “There has never been a union be- tween England and Ireland. There was an accidental sort of union that might be compared to the union en- suing when the whale swallowed Jonah.” Resolutions favoring the Linthicum measure to make “The Star Spangled ! Banner” the national anthem, and de- manding that the third stanza be re- tained, were adopted. The Botanic Garden Question. To the Editor of The Star: Referring to your excellent editorial in last night's Star relative to the Bo- tanic_Garden, it seems to me that the entire question hinges on the word “bo- tanic.” No one will dispute that the present Botanic Garden is very largely patronized and enjoyed, but would not the same patronage Temain if it_was frankly an ornamental garden? What percentage of the present patronage is due to the “botanical” part of it? There is no possible objection to gar- dens in the Mall, and all of the parks, but it must be acknowledged that for a botanic garden a great diversity for environment is absolutely essential to success. Environment ranging from flat semi-submerged marsh land_ to high, steep hillsides; soil from the black peat of the bog through the sands of the F. Ed- na- | ‘WEBSTER. MILITARY ORDER river shore to almost pure clay on the hills. There is probably no other tract of land within the District of Columbia presenting such great diversity in ex- posures, solls and general environment as that found in the Mount Hamilton tract. 1f memory serves me right, there was considerable objection to locating the Zoo in Rock Creek Park on account of its inaccessibility—'no one would go there.” It is reasonably certain that any one interested in botanical subjects would not for a moment be deterred by the “{naccessibility” of the Botanic Garden if located on the Mount Hamilton tract, and it seems reasonably certain that the general public would soon find its way there If its natural beauties were developed as they would be by the es- tablishment of a model botanic garden.
