Surrounded on the north by placid Lake Cecil and on Capper, was blocked by the objection of Senator Blease of South Carolina. Senator Blease also had raised objec- tion to the nurses’ home for Columbia Hospital, but permitted the measure to go through, stating that he had heen assured by !sanmor Copeland, in charge of it, that “officlals of the United .States and not District offi- cials will spend the money. The joint resolution authorizing de- lay in the erection of a permanent bullding at the tourist camp in Po- tomac Park, pending selection of a more suitable site, was postponed on objection of Senator Jones of Wash- ington. When Senator Blease objected to ‘reating the new utllities commission he asserted that “if there is a badly coverned city in the world, Washing- on is one.” Senator Capper urged the Senator from South Carolina not ‘o object and Senator Copeland told ‘\llll the object of the measure is to e the city better governed.

LONDON, July 2 (#).—Gentlemen may prefer blondes, but British por- trait painters prefer brunettes, if one may judge from the portraits of women shown in the annual exhibi- tion of the Royal Academy. The lack of blondes among the ple- tures shown this year has attracted universal comment and caused much speculation. There is even a lack of henna hair. Most of the bobbed, shin- gled and cropped heads shown in the gallery are dark brown or black. GINGER ALE! NONE BETTER A. G. HERRMANN AN A0 AR Itched and Caused Erup- tions.
