PINGHDT TELS . OF STRANGE FiSH Makes No Mention of Prohi- bition in Talk Before W. C. T. U. Convention. Slated for what prohibition advo- cates e: would be a stirring dry address before the quarterly convention of the Women's Christian Temperance Union of the District yesterday, former Gov. Gifford Pinchot of Pennsylvania surprised his audience by tales of strange fish he met on his expedition to the South Seas last Summer. Save for mentioning the fact that the Prench government not allow the sale of alcoholic beverages on the Tauamotu Islands, Mr. Pinchot did not mention liquor or ln,lhl.n! pertaining to it. Applause met with one refer- ence to the refusal of the French gov- ernment to permit its sale on the islands. Mr. Pinchot spoke in place of Mrs. ment on mmvu!plt.
