It was not a German, but an Englishman, who was mobbed In Rector's restaurant last night for refusing' to stand up with everybody else when the orches tra played "The Star-Spangled Ban. tier." Plastered with salad, which had been thrown at him, he was rushed out of Rector's, delivered to the police and charged with disorderly conduct In the night court. He Is Frederick Sumner Boyd, So cialist, who served a year In the New Jersey State prison at Trenton for advocating sabotage In I. W. W. meet ings in Paterson at the time of the silk workers' strike of 1913. With him In Rector's last night was Mis Jessie Ashley, lawyer and suffragist, who was fined $50 In this city last y,ear for distributing Information re garding birth control. She fought to shield Boyd from assailants In the restaurant, but disappeared before he was" arrested. The main dining room of the res taurant was crowded and the cabaret was going at 8 o'clock when the or chestra swerved from dance music to the national anthem. Instantly the diners were up and singing. The only persons who did not rise were Boyd and Miss Ashley, who were talking together at a table near the center of the room. At first no one noticed them except a waiter a German waiter who stepped to their sides and said: "I beg your pardon, but The Star Spangled Banner Is being played nov and the ladles and gentlemen are not seated." Unfilled to Budge. Boyd and his companion did not budge. By this time other diners were watching them. For the benefit of the Persistent sitters the air was repeat ed and the American diners every body but Boyd and his friend cheered and waved napkins. Over In a corner stood Charles Kappes, Jr., vice sresldent of the Barnaby Furniture Company of Staten Island. On his waistcoat gleams badge No. 476, proving that he Is a deputy sheriff of Richmond county. Noting that the diners were losing patience with the obstinate pair and were closing around them, Kappes started running toward Boyd with the intention of getting him up by per suasion. But before he got there Boyd and Miss Ashley were targets for a shower of salads and other food grabbed up by those around them and thrown with more or less careful aim. The air was full of flying salad and presenUy the still seated man and woman were decorated with greenery and several obvious dashes of mayo naise. The woman herself grabbed a big handful of salad and flung it re gardless. It splashed into the face of the German waiter who had been hov ering over the table and begging Boyd and his friend to stand up and do their duty by the flag of the U. S. A. The waiter, with yellow sauce stream ing down his face' and shirt front, groped his way out of Rector's and aC last reports had not reappeared. "To Hell With United States." The deputy sheriff from Richmond grasped Boyd by the shoulder and shouted: "Why don't you stand up? Don't be a fool. Don't you know this Is the United States!" Boyd replied, according to Kappes. "To hell with tire United States!" and then lifting his glass added, "Here's to the King!" In the swirl that followed two ta bles were upset and Rector's manager, Albert L. Dashburg, lost three buttons from his dress coat while scrambling through the crowd to Boyd's position. He finally grabbed Boyd, yanked him from his seat and dived with him to the Broadway entrance at the head of a flying wedge of assistant man agers, waiters, and villagers. The orchestra smoothed down the uproar by playing "The Star-Spangled Ban ner" once more, and an assistant man ager announced to the perspiring diners: "It is over. The disturber has been turneu over to the police." Which was true. Miss Ashley had slid away somehow, but Boyd was marched to the West Forty-seventh street station house and arraigned before Lieutenant Upward, whose parents came from England. A'ot Particular About Grounds. "I'm not a bit excited. Please notice that I am very, very cool," said Boyd to newspaper men. To the lieutenant he said: "I stand on my constitutional rights." "Stand on anything you pleas." replied Upward, "but Mr. Dashburg charges you with disorderly copduct, and you'Jl have to go to night court." While the prisoner's name and ad dress were being taken the deputy sheriff from Richmond stood biting his lips and clenching and unclench ing his fists, but whatever he seemed to feel like doing he did not do. The Rector's manager said that Boyd had eaten or ordered $7.75 worth of dinner and refused to pay the bill. Boyd said he was a newspaper reporter. Is thirty-two years old, and came from England six years ago. lie is slim and tall and has a small blond mustache. At Paterson strikers' meeting he ad vised the silk workers to rub vinegar soaked cloths over the reeds of tho looms and put rhodamlnje In the dye boxes. With the help of Miss Ashley, who tjate 5,000 ball for him, and other Influential socialists, he fought through the courts for two years, but In 1015 he was sentenced to serve from Dne to seven years In the peni tentiary and to pay a fine of 1500. Renounced Views. In prison he renounced his former lews on sabotage as "absolutely prej udicial to all social progress." A pe tition asking the court of pardons to free him was signed by Colone'l Roose velt, Frederic C. Howe, Kinley Peter Dunne, Hamilton Holt, the Rev. Dr. "ercy Stlckney Grant and others. Since his release he has written on prison reform. Miss Ashley Is a daughter of Ossln Ashley, formerly president of the Wa bash Railroad, and a sister of Clar ence D. Ashley, fromerly dean of the New York University Law School. She studied law at that school, was admitted to the bar In 1003, became a Socialist and was a Socialist candi date forjudge of the court of appeals in 1912. She was at one time treas urer of the National Suffrage Associa tion. She managed her own defense when she was tried In special sessions last year for giving out birth control OUM&tura." SCOUTS ARE INDUSTRIOUS Several Hundred Have Begun Work Toward Feeding Soldiers. "Every Boy Scout prepare to feed a soldier!" Under this slogan several hundred of the Boy Scouts of the District have begun work as gardeners, each one preparing to grow enough produce to feed himself and at least one man of the mobilized army. "Lettuce half an Inch high: onions three or four inches high, while the radishes and beets are still out of sight, but coming along." This Is the report of Scout Thomas H. King, who Is developing a garden In his back yard. Twenty-two other boys In the or ganlzatlon have already qualified for the special gardening "G" to be pre sented at the fall Court of Honor to be held under the direction of Rear Admiral Charles Stockton. During the past ten days five more members of the scout organization have passed the special examinations- for the Gar dening Merit Badge under Examiner Ralph H. Campbell, scout delegate to the Central Garden Committee. SENATE INDORSES GARDEN CAMPAIGN Reed of Missouri Says Home Tillers May Greatly Assist Nation in War Period. The home and vacant lot garden movement was discussed in the Sen ate yesterday after a resolution was offered by Senator Reed of Missouri calling upon the Secretary of Agri culture to furnish a comprehensive plan for getting a maximum food production from cultivation of town lots and unused lands adjacent to towns. In view of the high price of foods and any food emergency that may result from the war. The resolution, as amended by Sena tor iioran and agreed to, reads: "Resolved, That the Secretary of Agriculture is herhy requested to immediately submit to the Senate a comprehensive plan for Increasing the production of food supplies, especially by the cultivation of town lots and unused land adjacent to towns, and Pf the arid or semi-arid lands, and by promoting the raising of all classes of food or food-producing animals, and for the creation of an organiza tion to promote and In a practical and effective way carry out the purposes aforesaid, together with his estimate of the amount of moneys necessary to be appropriated by Congress for the promotion of the purposes afore said." Speaking on the resolution. Senator Reed said: "I can remember only a few years ago when almost every man living In a small country town cultivated a town lot, grew a portion of the vege tables for his family, and raised Dies and chickens: but afterward we pro gressed so far as to regard the rais ing on a town lot of anything to eat as quite beneath the dignity of the ordinary citizen. "I have not the slightest doubt but that If the Secretary of Agriculture can devise a plan that will result In all the governors of States taking hold of this proposition, and If the movement la carried on by the mayors of alt our cities and by them be extended so that the people will actually take hold, there can be raised In the aggregate, upon the vacant lot sof towns and upon the farm lands which are unused, enough food supplies to very materially af fect not only the price of food, but the convenience and the happiness of the people. ."We know that In Germany, after the government has done all that It can do, the food supplies are never theless so short that the people are actually starving. We know that In England by a recent order the food supply has been limited. We know that this war we are entering upon may call from Industrial and produc tive pursuits millions of men. We should begin to understand how grim the task Is that we are entering upon. "We may as well understand that the burdens of taxation will be enormous, oppressive. In many in stances almost crushing; the man who supports the family must In many cases be sent to the training camp, and from the training camp to the war trench, and that those who remain at home must sustain the home and also help sustain the ab sent one. "We have a war on our hands, or It has been declared on our part to be a war; and It may be a war to the knife, and the knife to the hilt; and you had as well prepare for It. Hundreds of thousands 61 acres of unused lands all over the country are not being cultivated. That Is the fortification that In the long run will save this country In case of war. It will sustain the army; It will sustain those who are not en gaged In war, those embracing the various communities."

PATRIOTIC WOMEN TO TILL GARDENS Carl Vrooman Tells How Nation May Benefit by Agricultural Activities in Cities. By CARL VROOMAN, Assistant Secretary of Agriculture, Member of the National Emergency Food Garden Commission. Without going beyond their own dooryards, millions of American wo men can render real service to the nation. This service Is as real as that rendered by Jhe soldier on the field or battle. It Is to plant and care for the little plot of land that lies back of the house to make a home garden. One million dooryard gardens planted In our suburbs and cities this spring would mean a national saving of possibly $50,000,000, a sum. as large as that which President McKInley was given by Congress for the prose cution of the Spanish-American war. Growing vegetables for home con sumption In these gardens would re lieve the railroads of the necessity of carrying millions of pounds of bulky freight, thus releasing thousands of cars and engines for hauling men and munitions. Our experts have calculated that an average American family uses about twenty bushels of potatoes a year. It does not take but a fraction of an acre to produce this quantity of this Important foodstuff, since a fair yield of this crop Is 200 bushels In a sea son, and It Is not uncommon for pota toes to run to 400 or more bushels per acre. Radishes, lettuce, early beets, beans. peas, tomatoes, spinach and numerous easily cultivated vegetables can be raised In the back yard, provided the soli Is fertile and Intelligence Is em ployed In the process. There Is no reason in the world why 3,000,000 back yard gardens should not ba planted this spring, planted as soon as the ground Is warm enough,. and Supply 3,000,000 families with good, cheap, nutritious foods all this sum mer, war or no war. The hitherto wasted resource of our dooryard land should be utilized at once. It Is no more work for a wo man to tend a vegetable garden than It is to tend a flower garden or house plant. At present it Is more patriotic to subordinate flowers to food. METHOD OF PREPARING SOIL Expert Glvea Advlea on Planning Gardens In District. Sifted coal ashes and decayed vege able matter are advocated by District Agent Conolly, of the Department of Agriculture, as an excellent method of preparing soil In the vicinity of Wash ington for cultivation. He says: 'The ashes should be well sifted and dry, and the vegetable matter should be well decayed. Then you will have to sprinkle them on very heavily and In corporate them lth the soil. Heavr clay and sand predominate In Wash ington, and they will stand from six to ten bushels of ashes to the square rod. If available. "When fertilizer is put on the soil It should be worked In thoroughlv, so as to lighten the earth. Don't attempt to scratch the surface three or four Inches. Stick your spade down In the ground for Its fuU length, and then turn the earth over. Otherwise- your efforts are mere child's play. "Select only as much ground as can be conveniently worked. An hour a day spent In the garden will properly care for a plot .not more than 40 by 50 feet. An area half this size will usually keep one pretty busy an hour a day. Good Soil Important. "The most Important point is good soil. Deep, mellow soil that can be eas ily worked, and which Is free from weeds and weed seed. Is the Ideal for growing vegetables. "It Is a serious question what crops to grow. First, be sure yau have the space and then grow what the family likes. One lady asked me yesterday what to grow on a space ten feet square. After inquiring what she liked I told her to grow a few pole lima beans and some radishes and lettuce. These give her more satisfaction than she would get out of trying to raise a dozen other vegetables. List for Selection. A fine list for people of this commun ity to select from would be: R-ets, let tuce, Swiss chard, radishes, onion sets, carrots or tomatoa plants. Where pole beans can be trained to a fence and out of the way they may be used. Snap beans may often be used between rows of these other crops. Larger gardeners can add cabbage, egg plant, summer squash, pepper, spinach, and torn. "The crops to be planted "at once are hardy plants, such a beets, carrots, peas, potatoes, spinach, radishes, let luce, and so forth. Other plants may be put in the ground in about three weeks' time. "Plant pole bean. sweet corn, toma toes, and other tall growing crops on the north nide of the garden, where they will not ihade the lower gi owing crop, riant early maturing crops like radishes Kiid lettuce between later maturing cropi like tomatoes and beans. Plant late crops like tomatoes and cabbage In rows after beets, carrots, and other crops have been removed." AGRICULTURAL CONFERENCE Will Draft Regulation! to Conserve Foodstuff.

Laying out of scores of home gar. dens around Tenleytown Is expected to follow Indorsement of the horns garden movement by the Northwest Suburban Citizens' Association at a meeting In Tenley School last night. A. E. Shoemaker, author of the resolution, commended the news papers that have taken up the gar den movement as a means of com bating the high cost of living. Prevented by illness from attend ing, C. C. Lancaster, president of the association, telephoned his approval 'of the garden movement aa advo cated by The Times and urged lta indorsement. The association voted to give Its moral support and sympathy to the striking carmen of the Tenleytowp division of the Washington Hallway end Electric Company. A request fo better service on the line was dis cussed but no action was taken. A special committee composed of K. H. Rice, F. J. Helder, J. T. Allison, the Rev. W. W. Shearer and Mr. Lancaster was appointed to draw up the list of street and other improve ments they desire to have the Com missioners Include in the next esti mate to Congress. . Impressed by the 'civic pride of Mrs. Clara Splcer, who, like Miss Jeannette Rankin, sits alone among the masculine members, A. E. Shoe maker appealed to members to bring Into the association more women or the community. "Mrs. Splcer Is here rainy nights and clear nights." said Mr. Shoe maker, "and we ought to have more of the ladles of the. community here with her." Mrs. Splcer, pleased by the recog pltlon of her service, promised to do all In her power to get other women Into the organization.

SALTS li HOT ITER CLEARSP1MPLYSKIN POPULAR MEDICINE BYDR.HIRSHBERG ntelligent Observations of ,Rules of Hygiene Will De crease Illness. By Dr. L. K. HIItSHBEHa. Among the many causes of so-called colds p.revalent at this time of the year are: faulty food and drink. bundling up the throat too much thus making the skin supersensitive poor ventilation and Indoor .Jlie. Recent researches, seem tb indicate that a germ which cannot abide sun light and oxygen Inserts itself Into" the nostrils and eyelids of indoor workers and those who refuse to stay in the cbld. fresh air and causes running noses, watery eyes and the other unpleasant disturbances, com monly called "the symptoms of colds." In the development of so-called "colds" different persons may be af fected with varied unpleasantnesses. At the beginning the chest may feel "stopped up" and there may be severe coughing with but scant expectora tion, as the secretion is not large. However, after some few hours, or perhaps even a few days, the secre tion Increases and Is expectorated easily. Then the cough Is said to be "loose." Others may have severe shtverfng or chills, alternated perhaps by a slight fever. Headaches, Ion of ap petite, lassitude and a rattling sound In the chest are not uncommon. Fresh Air necessary. In an endeavor to do away with these annoyances that help to impair health, one method that has much to Its credit Is the inhalation of steam vapors. All possible means to keep the skin active should be' employed. Turkish baths, vapor baths, electric light baths, warm blankets, wet sheet packs, and vigorous massage are all good for this purpose. The diet is also something of impor tance to be considered. It should be restricted to plain, unstlmulattng ra tions such as fruits and grains, and even these should be Indulged' in in but small quantities. Warm, mucil aginous drinks such as honey, emul sions of cod liver oil, and olive oil may be taken freely. If the case Is so severe that the pa tient must remain Indoors, plenty of fresh air should be admitted by means of proper ventilation without causing 'drafts" and exercise should be indulged in. . Those who are subject to bronchial disturbances very often are victims of .cdnstlpatlon and languor. Very often an effective and rapid cure .of this disorder is brought about by con quering constipation. This Is done by open-air exercise, a diet of green veg etables, fresh fruits, uncooked bran, plenty of water, carrot Juice, prune Juice, and stewed fruits. However, If the malady remains for some time, the bronchial tubes be come obstructed and greatly dilated. This condition Is what is known as "emphysema." Difficult breathing and an enlarged chest accompany this. In the chronic stage of the disease there is a constant cough, shortness of breath, a great deal of expectora tion, together with all the disturb ances experienced in acute bronchitis.

A thorough examination, to gether with investigations of the skin, sputum, and various other tests, will show at once whether or not tu berculosis is present. While Ihe dis ease itself is seldom the cause of death, it may );ad U maladies that are fatal. . In the advanced stage the diet is aa Important' as in the slight cases. Eggs, milk, and starchy foods are al lowed. To avoid the formation of gaa in the stomach and bowels taboo meats, cane sugar; candles, tea, coffee, and alcohllc beverages. Nothing but cotton or silk fabric should be next to the skin, but the patient should be sufficiently clad to keep the ekin active. This does not mean, however, to bundle up or swathe yourself in clothes. Hot air baths and methods that ac tivate the akin should be employed as in less severe cases. "Vacuum breathing," an Important Improvement, Is employed with great benefit. An apparatus so constructed as to create a partial vacuum In a mask which fits the face "snugly is used. The patient Inhales rarefied alt- and breathes into a partial vac uum, thus emptying the lungs of Ira- pure, stagnant air which otherwise would be unable to escape easily from the lungs. This method of breathing improves the action of the heart and assists the blood to circu late through the lungs. Finally, restrict as much as possi ble pie desire to cough.
