HYLAN PENSION DENIED BY COURT OF APPEALS Former Mayor of New York Loses Fight to Collect Annual Grant. By the Associated Press. ALBANY, N. Y., October 2 mer Mayor John F. Hylan will not re- ceive a pension from New York City, under a decision handed down by the Court of Appeals yesterday. Mr. Hylan had resigned as mayor one day before his term expired, Jan- uary 1, 1926, in order to protect his pension rights. The board of estimate then voted the pension, amounting to $4,215 a year, during his lifetime or that of his wife. The former mayor sought the pension under the terms of municlpal legislation passed in his regime. Willlam J. Schieffelin brought a tax- payer's actlon in Supreme Court, and last April Justice Proskauer ruled that the granting of the pension was un- authorized and the pension vold. The case was appealed to the appellate di- vision which upheld Justice Proskau- er's ruling. The former mayor then appealed the case to the court of ap- peals, which returned its decision yes- terday without opinion. ing to the surface. 100% Pure. Insist upon D. C. WEDNESDAY, PEDRO HELD FIRST ROYAL GUEST HERE Pan-American Union Recalls Emperor of Brazil’s Visit, Half Century Ago. The Pan-American Union will not permit to go unchallenged the state- ment broadcast in the press of the Nation that King Albert and Queen Elizabeth of Belgilum were the only reigning royalty to visit the United States hefure Queen Marfe set foot on American sofl to captivate the heart and the imagination of a Demo- cratic people. Out of the misty past of an even half-century ngo it waa recalled that the distinction of being the first ruler to be a guest of ‘his country rightly belongs to Dom Pedro III, Emperor of Brazil. Few persons now living in Washington recollect the visit of this distinguished South American of royal blood, who became an emperor at the age of six years, and a govern- ing ruler at the age of 15. State Department Also at Fault. In the midst of the intense interest aroused over the appearance of the Rumanian Quesn even State Depart. ment officials appurently have forgot- ten the musty records of Dom Pedro’s visit to Amerlca in the Spring of 1876. One of the Washington fam. {lies, who have occasion to remember the Brazilian moaairch, a splendid, towering figure, 'with shaggy whisk- ers and democratic manner, is that of the late Alexander Graham BEell, inventor of the telephone. Between Dr. Bell and Dom Pedro there sprang up a friendship that years did not diminish. $om Pedro, then a man in his fif- tles, came to tha United States pri- marily to wvisit the Centernial Ex- position at Philadelphia. He travel- ed “incognito,” as pluin Mr. Alcan- tara, though accompanied by several official retinues. On his visit here he was received by President Grant, and made an extended tour of the country. Like those members of royalty who have followed him, he won merited popularity with ~the “‘masses” by s unaffected and demo- cratic ways, his keen interest in all things American. An amusing inciden: in the associa- tion between Dom Pedro and Dr. Bell was recalled . at the Pan-American Union. The Brazilian Emperor had heard much before his visit here about the deaf and dumb institute at Boston, in_-vhich Dr. Bell was in- terested. Shorily after his arrival in the United States he went to Boston to inspect this institute and makes the acquaintance of Dr. Bell, who at that time had just taken out a patent for the telephone ani was still experi- menting with it. Later the genial :nonarch was a visitor at the Ceatenniil Exposition, and in one of the buildings harnened to spy his friend Dr. Bell, more busily engaged with a hammer than in think- ing of the crowd about him. Graclously Greets Dr. Bell. “Why, how are you, Dr. Bell,” ex- claimed the royal visitor. ‘W] you dofng with that hammer?" “I'm just puttlag in an Instrument I'm experimenting with, so that = person can talk over u wire,” the in. ventor replied hetweer. sharp raps. “How very interesting,” commen-ed Dom Pedro, loath to leave the scene. The next morning when Dr. Beli went to the building to continue his work he found the merry monarch patiently sitting on the staps awaiting him. His curiosity had gotten the better of him and he persvaded D'r. Bell to explain to him how one per. son could talk to another miles away over a copper wire. Later Dr. Bell found a stanch and willing champion in Dom Pedro, who, it was sald, was anxious to introduce the telephone to Brazil. SKIES ARE BACKGROUND FOR TWO MOVIE SCENES Producer Finds Cumulus Clouds in South Texas Valuable in Pre- senting Beautiful Effects. By the Associated Press. SAN ANTONIO, Oectober 20.—Dis- vovery that the cumulus clouds of south central Texas act as a remark- able photographic filter that gives soft and beautiful effects for motion pic. tures has resulted in successful ex- periments whereby the skies are now being used as the principal back- ground for two big feature produc- tions. The value of backlighted clouds, commonly known as clouds with a sil- ver lining, was first brought into prominence by Director Victor Flem- ing and Cameraman James Howe of 'he Rough Riders,” and is now be- ing used to a revolutionary extent in “Wings."” J. H. Jarboe, of the United States Weather Bureau, explained that the white, fleecy Texas clouds register on film while the California clouds scarce- 1y do at all, because the former have less moistures and therefore less den- sity, permitting the sun’'s rays to penetrate. Also, being light and evanescent, they are swept in rapidly changing formations by the Gulf breeze. The density of the rolling California clouds hiding the sun casts a shadow that permits no exposure on negative. Fall is the Best Time to Paint!

So declared her spokeswoman, the lady In waiting, Mme. Simone Lahov- ary, in answering questions today of reporters. Mme. Lahovary described a Queen who is modern and human, feminine as well as regal. “Yes, the Queen smokes a few cig- arettes daily, although she is by no eans an inveterate smoker,” she said. “She does not permit the Prin- cess Tleana to smoke.” “We have brought some Rumanian clgarettes with us, but the Queen also has smoked some American_ brands, likes them very much,” she “She never uses rouge,” continued the vivaclous Mme.

Lahovary estimated “several gray ones, a sable and an ermine eve- ning wrap, the moleskin coat you saw her wearing—she must have over half a dozen.” Royalty changes its clothes several times daily. ““About four costumes a day are usually required by the Queen,” she said. “She takes great pleasure in Blue Moon Dinner ‘Thursday, October 21 $1.50 Cream of Oyster Soup Brolled Chicken Candied Sweet Potatoes Corn Pudding Green Peas Alligator Pear Salad French_Tce Cream Rolls Coffes POTOMAC 338 T TZ T T I T T T EEE R 3126 ington, where greater care tion of materials. arrangement. 1412 Eye St. N.W. well-appointed costumes, and makes a point of having matching hats and coats for every gown.
