QUAIL IS FOND OF TOAST
Little Bird Makes Home in Res-
taurant Where lie Is in DemandInvading the very haunts of man
where lie Is always being asked forspread out on a piece of toast a littlequail makes his home In a restauranton Pennsylvania avenue and IB growingfat for his experience Strange to sayone df favored delicacies of the littlebird of the woods Is nice crisptoast The bobwhite Is owned by Uteproprietor of the place and hasat the cafe several months lie Is ableto fly and finds much amusement in encircling the room and gazing at thepictures and alighting on the electricfans
The only picture that lies attractedany unusual attention from the quail Isa reproduction of wooded tract withtrees and brush in the background andsnow covering the ground At times thebird looks at this picture for hours andseems to wish that he were back in Mshaunts again and mingling with hisbrothers and sisters At night the quailsleeps wider the oven in the kitchenwhere thousands of his kind have beenroasted to a brown and served on toastat fancy prices
During the daytime the quail outon the avenue but he doesnt like thenoise the street cars and the passingcrowds and he soon meanders back intothe restaurant to look for little piecesof toast and lettuce and other bits offood that are thrown him by the patrons
ALL TAKE PART IN BEE CHASE-
No One Is Stung but the Curious
Are Disappointed
Traffic and Commerce Halted WhileScientist Pursues Ills Investiga-
tion of Hive Dweller
Fifteenth and G streets Is more or lessaccording to the time of day a congestedcrossing Just after office hours yester-day it was a perfect replica of a bread-line at Madison Square or of a mob sur-rounding the policeman making an arrestduring the exodus from a bell game
No one was hungry no vise waspinched But when an elderly gentle-man of some threescore years was seenin the posture of a bullfrog about toJump starting on the uneverj tenure ofhis way In hops skips and Jumpseven somersaults it was the high signfor every one in the know that a riotmight occur
At the same time he was pushing thefront page of The Washington Heraldalong the sidewalk A crowd collectedSome yelled for help others shoutedmurder and called for the police Thosewho were still able to revel in a lucidInterval suggested that it might be wellto Investigate the dark object seen hover-ing around the front nd of the news-paper Rufus the sunburned child of na-
ture insisted that it was Jes one ob demont cows Mickey who hasnt beenaway from Fifteenth and G streets forfifteen years swore that It was a busseed An argument ensued in which sbystander of kneeleather boots blueshirt faded coat mustache long goateeantI softhat type remarked What be
Dats it piped Rufus It am a beeSome on remarked that the gentle
representing the Agricultural DepartmentGeological Survey and other scientific so-
cieties In Washington might get stungif he persisted In his pursuit A real nicelady on the outskirts of the crowd ven-tured the remark that it might be a queenbee and that it was unseemly conductfor the governments representative to bechasing a queen through the streets ofWashington Some one displaying anerual amount of human intelligence ven-tured the remark that la case the bee Inquestion proved not to be a queen bo thelonghaired gentleman would not be tax-ing society if he asked them to approveof his action The chase went merrily-on Of a sudden a mighty yell was heardand before any one could get out of
the scientist had caught up with theInsect and received a high sign that wenthigh enough over the head of the crowdto reach the Lady Bee WashingtonHerald man has it on good authority thatthe conversation taking place was per-fectly proper and according to Hoyle
It seems that after Secretary Wilsonsagent had made several efforts to throwMrs Queen into the air in order to giveher sufficient impetus to fly back to theflock with no result he placed her ashigh up as possible on a nearby tele-graph pole She couldnt fly and shecouldnt climb so there was naught forthe crowd to do but blow while our long-haired buggy friend or friend of thebugs dragged himself toward a carmumbling To bee or not to be that Isthe question

NEW DISEASE KILLS QUAIL
Agricultural Department StnillcaBacillus Which IN Working havocThe scientists of the Agricultural
Department have discovered a new dis-ease which has recently prevailedamong quail in th United States It ishighly contagious and rapidly fataland has appeared in Alabama KansasIndian Territory and DistrictColumbia and at Mount Vernon VaElizabeth Pa Boston and WorcesterMass and at Yarmouth Nova Scotia
The experts of the Bureau of AnimalIndustry have studied this new diseaseand have found that U is due to a virulent bacillus of intestinal origin Quaildisease is in many respects similar tothe socalled grouse disease which frequently devastates the moors of Eng-land and Scotland The bureau has
a preliminary report by GeorgeByron Morse assistant In bacteriologyand pathology on the disease and Iscontinuing Its Investigation to reach-a better understanding of It causesand methods of combating it

COLLINS WINS AGAIN
Ruse Results in Arrest of
One John L Schmidt
DEEP PLOT IS SUCCESSFUL
Refreshments Provided at the RockSprings Hotel Declared to Ho Con
trnlianil by Friends of MarshalWho Secure Samples Proprietorand Wife Taken Into Custody
Another bouquet should be shipped toMarshal Comes contributor to the GlenEcho exchequer and the mirth of nationsNot long ago the suburban Nick Carterand a troupe of bashful deputies attempted to raid the Rock Spring Hotelon the Conduit road In the hope f put-
ting certain games of chance on the blinkand the proprietor In the Glen Echo calabooski The raid was peculiarly unsuc-
cessful as related at that time in TheWashington Herald but a few days laterthe proprietor was found In Washingtonby Marshal Collins and escorted to Rock-ville where he languishes in durance vile
Learning that the business had beenover temporarily by one John L
Schmidt former manager of the CabinJohn Hotel Marshal Collins cogitatedupon the best method of getting the goodson the new keeper of the famous road-
side club determined to secureindisputable evidence that there wassomething doing in the way of palatepolish purchasing under the new regimeTo this end he arranged with four Washmgton friends that they should drift outthe pike give the Hock Spring Hoteldoorkeeper the club grip and purchaseiniquitous and contraband refreshmenttherein
The party of four consisting of IrvingW Simonds Plies Hattie K JohnsonSimonds brother and Simonds brotherswife signed articles with the Glen Echodistillery destroyer and proceeded tosuspected hostelry
Kind It In ContrabandLater they Informed the Intrepid
of Glen Echos and the County ofMontgomery statutes that liquid
near enough to whisky to beclassed as such by those whose educa-
tion has been neglected had been doledout to them for the salting and price
Without wasting words Marshalcarted his four amateur sleuths out to
Itockvllle Thursday and there a warrantwas sworn out against Mr Schmidt andhis wife Yesterday morning Mr Schmidtwas awakened at an over early hour bya knock on the front door He foundCollins with the papers There wasnothing to do but hie merrily with himto Ilockvtlle and there deposit Wot bondbefore Robertson to await th cUon ofthe November grand jury
That romance is liable to trenfc out-most any old time is proven by the factthat after pulling off the sleuth act MrSimonds and Miss Johnson sprung a sur-prise on their friends by deciding to getmarried Collins notified his chief May-or Garrett who was studying UnitedStates Revised Statutes In the office inRockvtlle and advised him of the pro-posed wedding march Garrett gave hisconsent and picked out a nice ministerRev S R White who performed theceremony
As a reward for his activities MarshalCollins wee Informed by Mayor Garrettthat in the future he would be assistedby three deputies who would do his automobile work for him while he was busychasing other offenders The three newGlen Echo dignitaries are Walter PShore Joseph H Forsyth and FrankWeiner They are to spend most of their
within the precincts of Glen EchoPark but are to take turns guarding theConduit road
Will Get aiotorcjcleGlen Echo has derided to save Marshal
Collins a great deal of extra leg exerciseby purchasing a motorcycle for his useHitherto the valiant marshal has bad tohound speeding honk hacks by virtue ofhis nifty pedalpushing In the future bewill pursue his prey sitting gracefully atease in the saddle of a lazy bike
The new deputies will have the loanof the trusty old bicycle for use as
scouts for the present If the automobilepinching business continues atits old gait the town will probably pur-chase for the three new deputiesIf any honk hackist succeeds then inMating it through Glen Echo at anything faster than a lope he should at onceenter the business of transporting nitro-glycerin by wagon through Virginia

President delays of Nicaragua has unmasked and his purpose to form a con-solidation of all the Central AmericanStates ts revealed appears to be-
n longer any doubt Salvadoreanrevolutionists who recently landed atAcajutla aboard a Nicaraguan gunboatwere outfitted in Nicaragua by Belaysand that he Is seeking to overthrowFigueroa government In
The Xicaraguan toconceal his motives and it is believed
that practically all Central Americasoon be i revolution and turned
That Zelaya plans a confederation of thCentral American republics Into one nu
Is confirmed by a dispatch which theDepartment received yesterda
morning from United States Consul Oii-
varec at Managua the capital of Nicara-gua In the cablegram Mr Olivares saysthat he has beets officially advised that toaccordance with the Central Americanunion plan President Zlaya has dis-
patched monitions of war and troops inaid of Gen Alfaro who is the popularUnionist candidate for President of Sal-
vador Ftgosroa he adds te opposed tothe Unionist ides
Thus far all the reports which havereached Washington indicate that therevolutionists have been repulsed by thegovernment troops and driven back tothe port where they landed and areseeking to reembark
The State Department has heard noth-ing through Senor Cores the NicaraguanMinister regarding the situation al-
though when the report of the landtag ofrevolutionists at was receivedthe department Coe tomake an inquiry of his government
The remarkable feature of the outbreak-in Salvador is the tact that only withinthe past two months Nicaragua and Sal-vador signed a treaty of amity and peaceat Amapala which evidently Belays hasutterly disregarded

journment Taken Until AovcnilierGen Hurt Iralncs Colored Troops
The investigation of the shooting upof Brownsville for which three companies-of the Twentyfifth Infantry were dis-
honorably discharged was practicallyfinished by the Senate Committee on Mill
Affairs yesterday and the committeeadjournment until November 18 Its
inquiry was begun In February and hascontinued ever since except for a monthsrecess
The committee lisa taken thousands ofpages of testimony examining nearly allthe discharged soldiers and their formerofficers and many citizens of Brownsrllle and experts front the War Depart-ment
The committee may take further evi-
dence after Its meeting In November Itanything of importance should come upbut the main object of the meeting will betoe preparation of tte committees reporton the result of Its labors for presentationto the Senate In December
From the attitude of the members ofthe committee as disclosed by their examinatien of witnesses it It evident thatunless changed by strong testimony thatmay yet be offered there will be tworeports preaenteda majority report up-
holding the course of the President inordering the discharge of the battalionand finding that some unidentified mem-
bers of the three companies are guiltyof the Brownsville outrage and a minority report declaring their discharge un-
warranted and that proof is lacking thatthe shooting was done by the coloredsoldiers
Iornkcr to Prepare ReportThe latter report will be prepared by
Senator Foraker who introduced theresolution upon which the investigationwas ordered and who has conducted theexamination for that side of the contro-versy The committee from present in-
dications now stands S to 4 with onemember doubtful
Of the witnesses heard yesterday BrigGen Andrew 8 retired who com-manded the Twentyfifth Infantry tenyears testified to the high character ofthe men under him who he said were notonly the equal In efficiency of any sol-
diers In the United States army but ofany in the world If the Brownsvilleshooting were done by ten or fifteen menof the regiment of which he had extremedoubt he was sure that the other menof the three companies knew nothingabout it or they would have told of itOn crosflexamtnatkm he admitted thathe had heard of tour midnight raidssimilar to that at Brownsville that badhem committed by from ten to fifty mem-bers of the regiment at different place ifhad been stationed at Fort Meade atFort Nlobrara at Key West and at FortBliss The records showed that as re-cently U seven years ago while at Fort
of the Twentyfifth had raidedthe El Peso Jail where two oC
their number were locked up for disor-derly conduct and had killed a policeman
Lieut Lccklc HeardLJeutiLeckie of the Twentyfifth In-
fantry who was not with his company-on th ght of the shooting but whoafterward investigated the conditions atBrownsville the request of counselfor MaJ Penroee commanding the dis-charged battalion at that time who wason trial by courtmartial for lax disci-pline and thereby being responsible forthe shooting testified that it was im-
possible to recognise colored soldiers ona starlit night as some of the Brownsvilla people had testified He also inresponse to questions by Senator Forakeradvanced the theory that the shells foundon the streets of Brownsville might havebeen fired from Winchester rifles If thechambers of the guns were reamed out
John J Kletber prosecuting attorneyfor the district in which Brownsville issituated told the committee of the in-
vestigating of the shooting which he hadconducted for presentation to the grandjury which had reported the soldiersguilty of the outrage but of its inability-to bring In an Indictment owing to lackof evidence incriminating against indi-viduals
The lest witness was Capt John HRice ordnance department who hadcleaned In from one to three minutessome of the guns fired by orders of lienCrosier and previously presented to thecommittee He testified that the gunswould have passed at the timeeven though they failed upon his examina-tion in the committee room
