This message was wired from the New York office, to relatives in Minnesota, who in turn wired Mrs. Irwin and other) relatives near here.

No details i were given in the cablegram, and Irwin says it will be five weeks before a letter from the Islands can reach her here. Miss Christensen who has been in the' missionary work several years was just home on a year's leave! of absence, and had spent part of I her time in the states with relatives here, returning last July to the islands for a stay of seven years before she would have another furlough. While in the states last year she lectured on her work, raising enough money to purchase a motor launch for use in her work, which took her from island to island as she opened up new fields and directed the work of the new missionaries, constantly being added. While details are not known the supposition is that the explosion occured while on one of those trips. Miss Christensen grew to womanhood in St.

Edward, her father, Hans Christensen being engaged in the hardware and implement business here a number of years ago. Relatives will not have the body brought home as the cost would be between $1000 and $1500 and they feel that she would rather rest among the people for whom she loved to labor than to work any hardship on relatives to have the body brought home.

iCcier Secretary Adams Carries Ills Own Tray and Senator Simmon Has Magniijhijr That Annoys Hijfh Tariff Republican. By RODNEY DUTCH ER NEA Service Writer Washington. Nov. (LP) Secretary of the Xavy Charles Francis Adams, descendant of a long line of ever so-distinguished Adamses. now trails every day at lunch time in a long line of clerks, lieutenants, stenographers, captains and other Navy Department employes in the big Navy Department cafeteria.

The secretary carries his own tray and picks out his own food all by himself. There is no precedence in the cafeteria and the lines are frequently long and slow-in progress. But it's a fine cafeteria, this one of the Navy's, and probably serves the most inexpensive good meals in Washington. Citizens of Washington are not permitted to vote, but do have civic pride. Charles W.

Darr, president of the Washington Chamber of Commerce, moaned publicly in a speech the other night as follows: "The fair name of our city is our proudest possession. Help up keep it. The stories have gone from Washington over telepraph, radio and by telephone to the press of the country, painting a picture of blood running on Pennsylvania avenue as freely as water does in the Potomac river and of the crooks in great gatherings in the capital, have wrought thousands of dollars' damage to the business of the city. Who will think of investing their money here as long as they are presented such a picture of Washington? Just as thousands of tourists have been diverted from the capital by the stories published some time ago describing the traffic conditions here as chaotic, so has investors money been diverted by stories built upon unsupported and unverified charges against our city officials. "Stand by our public officials, our police department and the other departments of our city government History may attach considerable importance to the magnifying glass wielded by Senator Furni-fold McLendel Simmons of North Carolina, ranking minority member of the Senate Finance Committee and Democratic leader in the tariff fight.

The Honorable Furnifold McLendel Simmons is going on 76 years now and his eyes aren't what they used to be. But through the aid of magnifying glass, which he is never without, he has been able to discern an astonishing number of items in the tariff bill presented by Republican committee members which the Democrats ought to oppose. Every day you can see him poring over the bill and its amendments and other relevant material, crouched close over the glass.

30 (LP) Declar ing that the city is running the risk of becoming involved in dam-J ace suits started by prisoners who, might contract diseases while ini-j prisoned, John Bramble, recently confirmed as Hastings chief of po- lice, has requested the city roun-1 cil to condemn the old city jail.
