Lejeune, com- mandant of the Marine Corps, was polishing up his service revolver yes- terday preparatory to shooting his aged and faithful steed, Sande, prevent him from suffering” after the captain leaves for Haiti shortly, along came Representative George Holden Tinkham of Massachusetts with a plea that he be allowed to care for the horse until he dies. And Sande's life was spared. Capt. Craige's announcement that he intended to take his “nag” down to Potomac Park and send a bullet into its brain rather than have the faithful animal fall into the hands of persons who might mistreat it brought forth a_storm of offers, in addition to that of Representative Tinkham, It was learned today. Representative Tinkham'’s plea ar- rived first, however, and accordingly it was accorded preference. A 5co of others interceded in rapid succes- sion, including James P.

Brinkman has been appointed clerk of the Senate District committee by Senator Capper of Kansas. chair- man of the committee. Mr. Brinkman fills the vacancy caused by the death of Miss Amy Piser. In the last Con- gress the special position of “resident” clerk of the District committee was created particularly so that Miss Piser might be appointed. She had served for several years as clerk of the com- mittee, during the chairmanship of former Senator Ball of Delaware. Mr. Brinkman is a Kansan, but he has lived much in the District of Co- lumbia. For several years he was em- ployed In the office of Interstate Com- merce Commissioner Mayer here in ‘Washington.

This same authority stated that unless he is greatly mistaken in the Coolidge way of doing business, the latter will ignore the appeals that he denounce the Klan and attempt to prevent the staging of the demonstra- tion in the Capital. The other problem’ has been brought about by the threat of John L. Lewis, Mine Workers of the World, another general strike in the bitumi- nous coal flelds. Although the Pr ident, up until noon today, had only press reports of Mr. Lewis' speech in Scranton, the President {s known to consider the possibility of another general coal strike as a domestic problem of the highest importance. .

Ave. NW. il “to | s | five president of the United | of | first place,” Capt. Craige remarked today. “He s one of my best friends, and has been for the past five years. But I felt I would rather end his life before I left town than to know that ognebody might get hold of him and work him to death. Wouldn't you rather be shot to death than worked to_death? “He's 22 years old. T've been kidded a lot by my friends about Sande, but the fact remains he is a lively horse yet. I'm going to accept my friend Tinkham's offer because I know he will see that Sande is prop- erly provided for. Tinkham knows Sande from personal experienca, hav- ing ridden him a number of times. “If he doesn’t ride him any more strenuously than he has been in the habit of doing, Sande will have an easy time of it Sande is a sorrel, Kentucky- hrcd |saddle horse that many years was well known as a pacer, He won a number of races on fast tracks, but when he became 5 years old was as- | signed saddle-duty. “She’s one of these smooth suited horses of the past, Craige explained. ““The kind that |grandma made the boast of that she could ride to town knitting and not {drop a stitch, or that grandpa testi- fied would le* him drink a bottle of whisky on the way home without spilling a drop.” President Faces Barrage of Cards From Here on July 4, His Birthday “President Coolidge’s birthday July 4. Send him a greeting.” Inquiry at one of the shops to- day disclosed that no special card is provided for this purpose, as the dealers felt it would be inappro- priate to have the President flooded with cards exactly similar. Instead customers are advised to send regu- lar birthday cards, bearing little verses of felicitation. Some of the stores also have cards designed especially for per- sons whose birthdays fall on the Fourth of July, and many of these are being sent to Swampscott, it s said. is has sent a request to Secretary of La bor Davis and Secretary of Commerce Hoover to advise him and to furnish him with figures and facts. It is understood also that the President has called upon George Otis Smith, director of the Bureau of Mines, to send statistics regarding coal sup- plies to Swampscott. John Hays Hammond, who was finding Commission more than a ago, has a Summer home near Glou cester, only a short distance from here, and it is thought likely that the President may invite him to drop in at White Court to discuss the Lewls threat and the other phases of the coal situation. President and Mrs. Coolldge today entered upon their second week of their vacation at White Court. and the President is trying hard to strike a real vacation stride, but he is find- ing it none too easy. ) The President had received no word from Plymouth regarding his father's condition up to 11 o'clock today, but this did not appear to disturb him. He is known to have remarked philosophically that “no news s good | news.” | The President arose a trifle earlier than usual today and took his cus- tomary stroll down to the rocks at the White Court shore, where he stood silently for five or ten minutes looking out on the water. After breakfast he went for a two-mile walk, which took him for the greater part along | Puritan road and through the village DRESSES ADE BY YOU Under My Personal Instriction 1n Dresemaking chairman of the President’s Coal Fact- | STAR. STTIN of Swampscott. Many persons were about at the time and the Executive was kept busy tipping his hat and saluting in response to the greetings. Mrs. Coolidge again devoted the greater part of the morning to the White Court garden. With her was Mrs. Frank Stearns, whose estate ad- Joins White Court. When Mrs. Coolidge returned to the house she carried an armful of flowers she had picked. After watching the President stand by looking on at his son John do the chores at the old homestead in Ply- mouth, it seems the President has a real fondness for this sort of diversion No sooner had Mrs. Coolidge departed for her walk this morning than the President appeared on the lawn and as soon as his eyes lighted on the gardener working away in the flower garden he hurried over and took a position close by where he stood and watched the proceedings As he did so he calmly smoked and once in a while addressed a question to the bent figure beside him. He probably would have remained longer, or until that particular garden job was completed had not Erwin Geisser, his personal stenographer, arrived to take dicta- tion. ~They retired to the President’s study where they kept busy pretty well on up to noon. The President this morning gave another evidence of his fondness for youngsters when he stopped at the entrance of the White Court estate on his return from his walk, to receive an 1l-year-old boy who had called to present a wood carving of the Presi- dent and Mrs. Coolidge standing with Rob Roy between them. The boy &aid his name was Henry Blaney, that he was 11 years old and attended the Manual Training School at Lynn. He had ked all the way to White Court, a distance of more than 3 miles, and when the President stopped to receive him he was o frightened he could hardly speak. He said a big lump came in his throat and his tongue seemed to be tied to the roof of his mouth. The President recog- d the boy's discomfiture and he ¢ quickly ‘made him feel easier. Although the lad’s work was ecrude, the President warmly praised it and told Henry to apply himself to his tal- ent and to work hard. As the President’s fifty-third birth- day approaches, July 4, numerous presents and many greeting cards are being recelved. Mrs. Coolidge and Mrs. Stearns are known to be preparing some sort of a little surprise for the President on his birthday, Saturday.

Whether the party will be held at the Stearns’ home, Red Gables, or at White Court, and' whether any number of intimate friends will be invited has not been learned. It was said yesterday, how- ever, that the Coolidges would be guests at Red Gables for dinner Sat- urday. President Coolidge today received the following radio message from the MacMillan party aboard the- Bowdoin, at Battle Harbor, Labrador: “Calvin Coolidge, President of the United States, Swampscott: “Deeply appreciative of the ¢o- operation of the United States in America’s first attempt to explore the great unknown area of the Polar sea by airplane.” A birthday greeting ir the form of a calendar and an orginal poem was received today from Gov. Fuller of Massachusetts, who called at White Court late yesterday afternoon for a friendly chat and to pay his respects to Mr. and Mrs. Coolidge.
