THE BROOKLYN DAILY EAGLE. NEW YORK. THURSDAY. FEBRUARY 27. 1913.

5 PILGRIMS IN SIGHT NATIONAL CAPITAL Trouble Expected with National Organization Over Message Intended for Wilson. AUDIENCE MAY NOT BE GIVEN. Colonel Ida Craft to Head Pilgrimages in Pennsylvania and Other States. (Special to The Eagle.) aHis of Hyattsville, the onslaught February on 27-On Washington, the which will be stormed by General Rosalie Jones and her pilgrim suffrage army at noon tomorrow, the pilgrims stacked guns and pitched camp here this afternoon after trudging twelve miles in a torrent of rain. Here they will bivouac for the night and in the morning the final dash into the capital, a matter of only five 1 miles, will bring to a close the celebrated pilgrimage from Newark, N.

to Washington. It was with no little concern that General Jones assembled her scattered army this moruing in Laurel, for it had beet that the colored women of the rumored, organized a suffrage parade and intended to fall into line with the white pilgrima. The townspeople let 1 it be known that it the negresses attempted to join the procession there would be trouble, and when Rosalie, the diplomatist, was apprised of this she served notice on a very black woman who bossed the dusky movement that none could join at this late date, and only those who had marched considerable distance were qualified to enlist. As a result, when the army marched out of Leurel at 9 o'clock, the blacks were merely spectators, and serious trouble that would have resulted, was avoided by Rosalie's tactfuluess in balking the colored women who last night were prepared to march. The pilgrims were mighty glad to leave the town behind them.

The crowded condition of the two small and the inadequate accommodations resulted in a miserable night for all. One cracked mirror that bad seen better days was enough to try the patience of any six girls keen in primping up to look their prettiest, even in a town like Laurel. There is every likelihood of a big rumpus when the army marches into Washlugtou tomorrow. This morning General Jones received a message from Dr. Anna Shaw.

president of the Women's Suffrage League of New York, requesting her to deliver the message addressed to President -elect Wilson, at the headquarters of the National Suffrage Organization. Dr. Shaw explained that the women connected with the national organization would undoubtedly be able to reach the President-elect, whereas the Pilgrims might not. Word came to General Jones, last night, from the heads of the national organization, that it would much more dignifed and proper if she left the message with them, and they would see that it reached Mr. Wilson.

It could be mailed to the Presidentelect, Rosalie was informed, or possibly they could get a congressional commit1 ee to wait upon Mr. Wilson and hand it to bim. It also was hinted that the President-elect would not graut the Pilgrims an audience. One thing is certain, the members of the national organization have explained the matter to Dr. Shaw, and the message received this morning by General Jones is the result.

When asked what she intended to do about it, Rosalie replied: "We Pilgrims will be the deliverers of the message, even it we "That to stay in Washington indefuitely. is emphatic and final." Laurel, February 27-Undaunted. despite the fact that she has gone through trying experiences and suffered hardships and privations without number, Colonel Ida A. Craft of Brooklyn, has decided to make suffrage pilgrimages through Peunsylvania, Maryland and Ohio. Today she accepted an invitation from the Suffragettes of Lebavon.

to organize an army there and lead it through the State, spreading the propaganda of the cause and arousing the women of the rural sections to a realization of what she declares to be their bounden dutyto get out and fight for the cause. Just as soon as she is thoroughly rested after the Washington hike, she announced today, she will go to Lebanon, recruit an army of ardent and sincere Suffragettes only, and hike from one end of Pennsylvania to the other. One of the conditions upon which Colonel Craft said she would take command was that 110 pleasure-seeking girls, bent on having 3 huge lark, be enlisted. This Brooklyn apostle of missionary pilgrimages impressed upon the Lebanon women, who selected her from among all the Suffragettes on the hike, that if she is to assume command she will not tolerate a circus affair. Therefore, she wants none but women who have been identified with the Suffrage movement to join the ranks--women who are really Suffragettes heart and soul, and not frivolous creatures who naught but a rip-roaring, good time in a hike.

She has learned heaps, she said, about the supposed sincerity of some of the Washington pilgrims, who took the trip to reduce hips, take off superfuous weight, beautify their complexions by the long jaunts in the open air, and. incidentally, enjoy themselves as they couldn't otherwise, if they were at home under watchful eyes. The colonel also declared red that she intends to limit a day's hike to ten miles at the very most. "There is absolutely no sense in these twenty and twenty-seven-miles she said today, "and this pilgrimage has opened my eyes to the foolishness of these forced heartrending bikes, which tax your strength and leave you a weak and nervous wreck by nightfall. Most of u8 have suffered so as a result of the miles we have been compelled to cover every day that We have lost heart.

With the announcement today by General Jones that she will be through with hiking--for a time at least--after Washington is reached and that she intends to go. to Europe in a few weeks for a long stay, Colonel Craft will undoubtedly be promoted to the generalship of the Suffrage Army. At any rate she will be brevetted with the rank of general when she takes command of the armies in Pennsylvania, Maryland and Ohio. Although having walked twenty -four miles yesterday, Colonel Craft, fagged out and suffering acutely, addressed the townspeople of Laurel last night from the porch of the Gloverleaf Inn. the course of her speech a heckler asked During her to tell the difference between a Suffragist and a Suffragette.

"What is the difference between a Suffragist and a Suffragette, Mr. Bones?" Colonel Craft retorted just like a ministrel interlocutor. "Why. Mr. Bones, a has a wishbone and A SufSuffragist fragette has a wishbone and a backbone, too." Whereat It Colonel Ida received gratitying applause.

This little town doesn't know such excitement since the racing season closed last October. The Laurelites stayed up as late as 10 o'clock, crowding in front of the hotel and calling for General Jones, Colonel Craft and Phoebe Hawn. the "Brooklyn Bahr." the three star drawing cards of the pilzrimage. The WAR the center of attraction, and while this section of the country is noted for its pretty girls, the youth of a Laurel voted Phoebe "some pippin." They bad read all about her before the army arrived here last evening, and her BEEFSTEAK DINNER OF KNICKERBOCKER FIELD CLUB, LAST EVENING LOOKS LIKE MIXUP IN THE THIRTEENTH Abandonment of Washington Trip Not Wholly Due to Lack of Interest? MANY SOLDIERS MEANT TO GO. Special Order No.

39 Seems to Have Gone Astray -Artillerymen Much Disappointed. Although Colonel Charles 0. Davis, who is in command of the Thirteenth tillery District, C. A. of lyn, stated yesterday that the trip el that regiment to Washington to take in the inauguration of Woodrow Wilson, was abandoned on the the departure, because of "lack of interest" on the part of the enlisted men, many believe that this is ouly one of the reasons for the sudden change in the plans.

The situation is complicated by twe telegrams-one sent to Adjutant General Hamilton at Albany by Colonel Davis and the reply to the Brooklyn colonel from his superior at the Capital. The two telegrams were made public by General Hamilton late yesterday. From Colonel Davis there was received the following message: "The Adjutant-General, Albany, N. No reply having been received to my request for permission to leave home station and the committee in charge being unable to meet the increased expense, this organization will not be able to participate in the inaugural parade on March 4. (Signed) "CHARLES O.

DAVIS, "Colonel Commanding Thirteenth Artillery District." The foregoing telegram was received General Hamilton at noon yesterday, its purpose being an explanation of the abandonment of the Washington trip by the Brooklyn artilerymen. In response to it, the following brief dispatch was received by Colonel Davis at his office in the Municipal Building, borough, shortly before 4 o'clock yesterday alternoon: "Albany, N. Y. "Colonel Charles 0. Davis, Brooklyn, N.

Special order 39, issued February 19, 193, granted permission for departure of your organization. (Signed) "HAMILTON, Adj. Colonel Davis denied that he bad ever received such an order from General Hamilton as referred to in the telegram from Albany. When asked it it was not strange that such a military order should never be delivered, although it was sent out a week ago, Colonel Davis said: "Yes, it is peculiar, but I never received it or heard of it before. However the order would not have made any material difference, for the lack of interest displayed in the regiment was the main reason for the calling off of the trip." Many of the officers and most of the men of the Thirtenth who had made plans to go to Washington are surprised at the sudden turn in the matter.

One of the companies that is disappointed because of the abandonment of the trip is the First Company commanded by Captain Frank Dean. This is the largest company in the regiment and more than half of the men had shown enthusiasm about the auguration trip. Sixty or more had planed to make the journey and the commanding officer has been busy at Baltimore and Washington on several occasions preparing for the excursion. Major General 0'Ryan Reviews the Forty-seventh Regiment. Major -General John F.

O'Ryan, commanding division National Guard, 1'e- viewed the -seventh Regiment last night, and the big armory at Marcy avenue and Heyward street was the scene of one of the most brilliant military events. seen in the Eastern District in some time. A feature of the review was the presence of many military guests in dress uniforms and most of them escorted women who wore handsome gowns. The gold and braid and glittering side arms of the men, with the bright colored gowns of the women, under the flood of light, made a striking picture. The turnout of Colonel Henry C.

Barthman's organization was the best season and the militiamen went through the drill and review in a fashion that brought forth volumes of applause. It was not until 9 o'clock that the review started. At that hour the band and the field music appeared on the drill floor and a minute latter the regiment, headed by Colonel Barthman entered the drill shed, formed in three battalions. They were brought down the floor where they formed in a line of masses, facing the reviewing stand. After presenting arms to the guest of the evening and his staff, the guardsmen were wheeled about, marched across the floor and then made ready for review.

General O'Ryan and his staff, accompanied by Colonel Barthman and the regimental staff, passed in front and in the rear of the lines, during which period a cornet solo was played by Signor De Nofrio. At the conclusion of the inspection of the regiment, the men passed in review. The regiment was then brought back, to the drill floor, each company showing its full strength, and the evening parade ceremony was gone through, under the command of Major H. B. Baldwin, Every company made a fine showing as it passed from the floor.

Two features were then introduced, Company under command of Captain William Corwin, displayed their knowledge with the use of their arms, while 18 AUTO BANDITS CONVICTED IN PARIS advent into the town--she was the first one in and alone--was enthusiastic. About two miles out from this town Phoebe met a cow and a calf were hiking it from Washington to Baltimore, not, of course, of their own volition. Miss promptly dotted the calf up with yellow "Votes for ribbons. bedecking its little horns until it looked as suffragetty as Susanne, the nag, and the Jersey donkey. The two small hotels in the town were unable to accommodate the entire army, and last night most of the war correspondents had to seek quarters In private Today President-elect Wilson received from General Jones a yellow "Votes for Women" pennant, which was sent to him by parcel post.

with the following letter: "We send and beg that you accept AS a memento of the suffrage pilgrims' trip through New Jersey, Delaware and Maryland a for Women" pennant from the Votes for Women pilgrims.

Lee of Cleveland, president of the Brotherhood of Railroad Trainmen, in an injunction suit filed here today, disclosed the existence of internal warfare in the organization.

The cause of the trouble is the difference of opinion of two factions regarding the merits of the proposed workmen's compensation law. Judge Tuthill yesterday issued a temporary injunction restraining Lee and other officials of the grand lodge from expelling members of the Chicago local or forfeiting its charter. PHILOIAN CLUB'S DANCE. The Philoian Club held its seventh annuaj French carnival and snow dance on Saturday evening, at New Palm Garden, 289 Sackman street.

The halls were handsomely decorated with designs which brought back the days of George Washington. Several thousand souvenirs were given to the guests including busts of George Washington. One Guilty Member of Gang which Terrorized City Commits Suicide After Trial. MANY MURDERS CHARGED. Desperate Crimes Stirred All France and Numerous Dramatic Features Attended the Trial.

Paris, February 27-The trial of the gang of twenty-two auto-bandits who held Paris in terror for months ended today after occupying the court for twenty-one days with verdict of guilty against eighteen of them on counts including murder, arson, robery and many other kinds of felony. Four of the accused, including three women accomplices, were found not guilLy by the jury. The case bas taken precedence in publie attention in France over the recent Presidential election, the Balkan war aud the Mexican revolution. Among the indietments brought against the prisoners were no fewer than two murders, their vietims being motor drivers, bank messengers, freight agents and policemen. They held up a number of suburban banks, broke into the residences of prominent people, killed the chief of the Paris detectives, set fire to buildings and, finally, when their two leaders, Bonnot and Garnier, were in danger of arrest, underwent two sieges in the environs of Paris in the course of which it was found necessary to call out bundreds of troops, whole squadrons of military, mounted police and practically the entire force of patrolmen who bombarded them for many hours in their sanctuaries and then found several of the leading spirits of the gang lying dead, riddled with bullets.

9.3. Geueral O'Ryan and his staff looked on. The guest said the men showed much skill. The real fun of the evening came next. Company headed by Captain Albert D.

Ecke, entered the drill room in their olive drab blouses and web belts. Each man had twenty rounds of blank cartridges, and the sixty members of the company went through an extended border drill. The rides popped for twenty minutes, while the men dashed from one end of the building to the other, throwing themselves to the floor at intervals of ten feet, just as they would in real warfare. The spectators were amused, some frightened, but there was loud applause at the conclusion of the exhibition. The guests then adjourned to the offcers' balcony and after a reception they went upstairs, where 8 collation was served.

During this time the general guests danced to the regimental band music. General O'Ryan's staff last night was made up of Colonel N. B. Thurston, Colonel H. S.

Sternberger, Colonel A. F. Townsend, Colonel G. Sage, U. S.

and Captains Olmstead and J. K. Green, who were the aids to the general. Signal Corps Shows Its Ability With Wireless. For the Arst time at any of its annua.

inspections, the Second Company, Signal Corps, National Guard, in its 1913 muster in the armory at 801 Dean street, last night, gave an exhibition to the inspection officer of its ability to handle a radio or wireless set. A section went to the Bedford Riding Academy, Atlantic and Bediord under charge of Sergeant Wade C. Pettit, and seut ether waves through the moist air to the armory, where the wireless experts caught the communications with an accuracy that pleased the inspecting officer of the Regular Army, Captain E. G. Abbott, U.

S. and Lieutenant Colonel Frederick T. Leigh, chief signal officer of New York, on the staff of Major General O'Ryan. In the radio demonstratiou pack mules were used for transportation as in actual field practice. The first feature of the inspection was' the drill by sections, I which was suappy and satisfactory in every detail.

Then came the operation of field telephone lines, with central switchboard. Messages were sent by feld acetylene lamps, heliograph and flags. This was followed with the buzzer telegraph. twelve operators displaying their skill in this. This was one of the most minutely close inspections the company has ever gone through, the inspecting officer counting everything but the buttons on the blouses, so that Captain George D.

Schenek, commanding, was particularly gratified when, on departing, Captain Abboit expressed his satisfaction with all he bad seen, which is construed as presaging a favorable report. The other commissioned officers of the company are Lieutenants F. W. Smith and Otis S. Carroll, and Captain H.

A. Santoire, the latter the surgeon. The acting quartermaster sergeant is Clarence E. Cooper. Captain Schenk announced that beginning this evening a radio section iv charge of himself and Sergeaut Pettit will give nightly exhibitions of radio or wireless work at the Sportsmens Show in Madison Square Garden.

The attendance this year at the muster was about the same as last, the figures being Altysix officers and men and two absentees for 1913. as against fifty -seven present and two absentees last year. The commanders of the divisions of the Second Battalion, Naval Militia at the Monitor review and parade at the Thirteenth Armory 'on Tuesday evening were as follows: Lieutenant J. T. Kane, First Division: Lieutenant F.

R. Lackey, Second Division; Lieutenant (J. T. Nelson, Third Division: Ensign H. H.

Holly, Fourth Division, The battery of one was in command of Licutenant E. G. Fitzgerald. Some of those who had a part in handling the model dreadnoughts were Chief Gunners Mates Mails and Mitchell and Chief Boatswains Mate Kelsey. The building of these remarkably accurate craft was perintended by Chief Gunners Mate Free.

The details were singularly well observed even down to the ship's mascots represented by the imitation goats and bulldogs, SO lifelike that one boy in the crowd chirped to the dogs, expecting them to bark. Lieutenant Robert Aikman ot the Fourth Company, Thirteenth Regiment, had charge of the handling of the Monitor, while the movements of the Merrimae were directed by Lieutenant Andrew Baird of the Ninth Company. After the mimic battle, former Captains White and Marmaduke of the Merrimac and former Surgeon Weeks of the Monitor lated Captain Harry Meekes of the Ninth Company on the historical accuracy with which he repdoduced those vessels. "By gracious," said Captain White, "so realistic was the picture that several times I imagined that 1 was back on the old Merrimac in Hampton Roads, and that fifty-one years had slipped off my life and was a young engineer on the Confederate ironclad." It now turns out that Dr. Granville N.

Weeks, the sole surviving officer of the Monitor, in his speech at the collation following the mimic fight, came within an ace of unmasking an oratorical battery from Colonel William C. Church. biographer of Ericsson the inventor of the Monitor. Colonel Church is up in arms instantly when the memory 01 acquirements of Ericsson are attacked. Dr.

Weeks explained that in his opinion the Monitor was lost in the gale off teras in December, 1862, nine months after her immortal fight, because the overhang permitted the waves to slap the underbody with such force as to start the plating and thus let in water. If the hour had not been so late it is likely Dr. Weeks would have received a lively scoring from Colonel Church. After the collation Colonel Church said that theory wag unsupported by any facts and was pure theory that had been exploded by the success with which other Monitors like the original had weathered the worst kind of weather without any damage whatever having been done. The theory of Colonel Church is that when a little water came in under the turret the sal'drove In oakum, which only serval to ors make matters worse, 89 oakum is not good for stopping leaks where steel or iron come together, NEWS OF SHIPS AND PORTS.

GEORGE LOWE GETS $8,500. Suit Against Nassau R. R. Is Adjusted in Court.

The case of George Lowe against the Nassau Electric Railroad Company came on for trial before Justice Crane and a jury in the Supreme Court, Brooklyn, Part yesterday, and after the jury was impaneled and the case opened it was adjusted for the sum of $8,500. From the facts adduced upon the opening of the case by Edward J. McCrossin of 149 Broadway, Manhattan, attorney for Mr. Lowe, it appeared that Lowe who had been on a fishing excursion at Ulmer Park on August 11, 1912, was badly injured by a train. The contention of the railroad company was that the train was in motion when Lowe and a friend tried to board it, and that his injuries were caused by his own neglect.

After the opening of counsel, negotiations for settlement were entered into. resulting in the above adjustment, which is one of the largest has ever been made. MARRIAGE LICENSES Issued during the 24 hours ending at 10 A.M. today, Gustave K. Skog.

BEEFSTEAK PARTY Members Enjoy Cabaret While Juicy Thumbbits Are Served at Soapbox Tables. 250 IN THE JOLLY PARTY. Dance Follows Supper in Home of Popular Flatbush Organization. The beefsteak supper and cabaret at the Knickerbocker Field Club, Albemarle road and East Seventeenth street, last night, was one of the most successful affairs in the twenty-four years of the club's existence. Flatbushites turned out in good numbers and there were in neighborhood of 250 persons present, the largest attendance at any affair dure ing the current season.

Everything went off without a hitch and it was a success in every way. It was the first beefsteak supper that the club has held in several years, and the arrangements, which were made by Gustave Girard, chairman of the committee, were very unique. The guests were seated on camp chairs, and each had a soap box as a table. Wooden butter plates were used. While cabaret singers went among the audience singing popular songs, the guests were served with thumbbits and cider, pie, celery, coffee and cigars.

It was in the neighborhood of 9 o'clock when the supper was over. It took but a few minutes to clear the floor and dancing was begun. There was no ban on turkey trotting and it was well into morning when the affair came to an end. The entertainment committee is composed of the following members: Gustave Girard, chairman; P. C.

TELLS OF HORRORS OF WAR Missionary Writes of Awful Scenes in Mexico and Suburbs. Board of Foreign Missions of the The Prestyterian Church, with headquarters in 136 Fifth avenue, Manhattan, this made public the first communimorning cation received from the Mexican missionaries since the beginning of the rewith the missionary Mexico City volt. Most of the buildings, connected are at San Angel, about forty minutes out by trolley. extract from the letter, writen by a An missionary at San Angel, on February 13, follows: amagine that the Mission Press building will be damaged, as it is in the line of fire. The last conversation had by telephone with our bookkeeper, who lives at the Press, was on Tuesday and she said the bullets were noon.

striking the upper part of the building constantly. They were all in one room, lying on the floor, to be out of danger. "There was fighting Sunday. Monday was quiet, but since Tuesday there have been three days of continuous fighting. We hear the heavy cannon most of the time, and sometimes the rapid-fire guns and mausers.

There are times when the firing is exceptionally heavy. I have counted twenty-five heavy cannon in three minutes. The conditions are getting to be appalling in the city, as SO many dead are unburied, not only of tne soldiers, but of those who die naturally each day in a large city. We are informed today that 110 dead had been buried since Sunday; but that is not entirely correct, 18 a man passing near the city saw this morning wagon loads of dead bodies of soldiers. number of refugees are passing through here, with the baskets of things they have been able to take along, with bedding and children.

Some have had hard experiences, no doubt. The rich come in automobiles and the poor 011 foot. "Mexico is paying an enormous price in life and property, but one can only wonder whether anything will be gotten for it. if it would serve to awaken the nation against all revolution and seditious talk in newspapers, it would 110 doubt be worth while." Convicted Bandit Commits Suicide in Cell. Even the conclusion of their trial was accompanied by further tragedy, for Carouy, the "Anarchist bandit," when he beard that he was condemned to imprisonment for life, committed suicide immediately after he had been taken back to his cell in the Conciergerie Prison by taking a large dose of poison which presumably had been passed to him by someone as he left the courtroom.

The trial has been attended by all sorts of dramatic incidents. The were threatened time and again assasJurors, sination by accomplices of the twentytwo accused. Many of the 304 witnesses also were menaced and even while they were on the witness stand signs were made to them in court that they would suffer for giving testimony. The court itself was surrounded by a large force of Republican Guards and judges and jurymen were placed under special supervision and provided with strong escorts whenever they left the building. When at last the evidence was brought to a close and counsel for the prosecution end defense had delivered their addresses and the jury had retired, a tremor of exthe courtroom, for threats were passed over or the spectators in ously put into circulation that something terrible would bappen.

Nothing, however, occurred. The jury remained out from 3 o'clock yesterday afternoon until nearly 7 o'clock this morning. They bad to consider a series of nearly 400 questions which had been submitted to them. When they returned into court their written verdict was found to be so incoberent, contradictory and lengthy that it had to be explained to the presiding judge by the foreman before it could be read. At the conclusion of the reading the spectators were stirred by the counsel for four of the bandits-Dieudonne, Callemin, Soudy and Monier--springing up from their seats and declaring that it was illegal for the presiding judge to ask the jury for oral explanations after they had written their verdicts.

They entered a strong protest against such procedure. Their clients, by the verdict the jury, tor were rendered liable to the death penalty and this was a last effort to avert or postpone their fate. Another dramatic incident occurred after the court had deliberated on the protests by prisoners' counsel and decided against them on a point of law. The presiding judge turned to the accused and asked them if they had anything more to say before sentence was pronounced upon them. Callemin, who had been found guilty of murder, sprang from his seat between the Republicau Guards and shouted: "My comrade Dieudonne was not the assailant of the bank messenger Caby.

it was i and my chief, Garnier." This admission caused a tremendous sensation in view of the fact that Caby had repeatedly asserted that it was Dieudonne who had shot him. The court again retired to deliberate. at 7:30 o'clock. Four of the notorious gang of twentytwo auto bandits were sentenced to death by the guillotine at the Paris Court of Assizes late today. The condemned men are Dieudonne, Callemin, Soudy and Monier, against whom a number of murders were proved.

Four of the others were sentenced to various terms of imprisonand four. including three women accomplices. wore released. TALK ON FRENCH CHATEAUS. A large audience attended Mrs.

James W. Haselhurst's lecture on "French Chateaus, Burgundy and Bresse," which was very fully illustrated and was given in the lecture hall, Academy of Music, yesterday afternoon. It was the second of six "Chapters in French History and Art." which the lecturer is presenting under the auspices of the Brooklyn Institute. Although the course comes late in the season and in the series on France which has been a feature of the Institute's list this season, and even though the topic itself, the French chateaus, has been specialized by other lecturers, Institute members still manifest intense interest in it. Mrs.

Hasleburst has brought together a great deal of information, both in immediate relation to her pictures and of affiliated interest. One of the pleasant things about her lectures is her voice. which. though low, has rather an unusual carrying quality, and she speaks with ease and distinctness, which is particuTarly to be appreciated when she tells tales of folk lore or stories from bistory. LAKE FISHERMEN STRIKE.

Cleveland, February 27---Orders for an immediate strike of the members of the Great Lakes Fishermen's Association were sent out from here last night by President French. Fish dealers refused a compromise wage scale offered by the fishermen, asking for an increase of from 15 to 25 cents al day, conceding an eleven hour day. LA CONCORDE BALL.
