New York. Via Washington.

One of the most delightful routes be-
tween Chicago and the East is over the
Baltimore & Ohio Railroad to New
York, by the way of Washington. The
trip possesses many peculiar charms,
especially to one whose journeyings
have never taken him to the borders of
the sunny Southland. The ride through
the Monongahela valley, across the
mountains of West Virginia, and then
along the gently flowing Potomac,
aWakenS keen interest in the lover of
natural scenery. Much of the ~~"'nd
traversed has unique hiStorical associa-
tions. A large part of this .ol
was debatable land at the time
of the civil war. Across these fields
once marched now the Blue and
now the Gray. These valleys once
rang with cheers, now for the Stars and
Stripes, and now for the Stars and
Bars. These mountainous heights more
than once echoed the sounds of deadly
conflict. Here General Lees army
crossed the Potomac on that carefully
planned invasion of Maryland and
Pennsylvania which ended so disaS-
trously at Gettysburg. Here Stonewall
jackson directed his forces on that
2"grand hunting excursion" by which
he cOrralled the Federal forces in Har-
per's Ferry, and compelled them to sur
render. And here at Harper's Ferry is
still seen the old brick fort where John
Brown took his stand in defiance of the
slavehOldlng power. To one who re-
members when these names were first
written in blood, what an excitement of
feeling the mention of them arOuses;
Antietam, SharpSburg, South Mount

Bluff. 1t is no ordinary experience to
pass through region franght with such
tragic memories.
The train hurries on; and soon there
is seen dimly in the distance white
marble shaft, and then great white
dome, and then other pinnacles and
spires, and Washington is reached.
Even the most cursory glance at the
city is sure to be profoundly impressive.

features which have given the city its
reputation and made it, in one sense,
the Mecca of all patriotic citizens of
this country. The capitol building,
that embodiment of national majesty;
the Washington monument with its
lofty reach heavenward, the White
house. with its deply interesting
associations; the several department
buildings in their massive stateliness;

Home, the broad avenues and beautiful
parks it does not take long to view
these. outwardly, at least; and the view

who recalls what these public buildings
stand for and the scenes which they
have witnessed is attended with emo
lions not easily described.
New York is about six hours ride
from Washington, and the road runs
through a very interesting stretch of
country, touching at Baltimore, Will
mington and Philadelphia. This is one
of the finest sections of railroad in the
reaching over sixty miles an hour.
