An article by Mr. Dryden In the last

society says the days of the giraffe are
numbered. few years ago herds of
seventy or eighty of them were often
met In various parts of Africa Mr.
Dryden says that nineteen giraffes are
now large herd They have been
hunted so mercilcssly both 10y nativs
and foreign sportsmcn that they are
rapidly becoming extinct
The Intelligent African, King Khama,
has, however. taken the giraffe under
his protection and hopes 10 save IL from

hunting OF the giraffe In his large do

will multiply in his country IL Il an

served the European bison from ex.

The Plans for Washington.

The city of Washington was long known
rs the City of Magnificent Distances. Yet
how few of us have ever heard of the man
who, with grand faith in the future,
planned the city and designed its first
public buildings. Peter Charles L'Enfant
was born in 1856 in France. He entered
the French army with the commission of
q lieutenant and prepared to scale the
slow and difficult ladder of military pro-
motion. But when the American colonies
raised the standard of revolt he watched
their course with keen interest.
As soon as the colonies proclaimed the
doctrines of freedom and declared them
selves an independent nation EEnfant
resolved to give his skill as an engineer to
the cause.
He came over with Lafayette in l777,
and almost Immediately received com
mission in the Continental army. On the
18th of February, 1878, he was made cap
tain of engineers, and was a remarkably
active and able officer.
IN the attack on Savannah he displayed
the utmost gallantry and was severely
wounded. On his recovery General
Washington appreciated his merits so
highly that he placed him on his staff.
After the war he employed his skill on
various engineering and architectural
works at Fort Miillin.
The selection or district for the seat
of Government was a subject of long dis
cussion, and when the present District of
Columbia was fixed upon Major L'Enfant
was selected to lay out the City of Wash
ipgton and to select the position. He
drew the plans also for some of the pub
lie building and slSetched Others as part
of his projected arrangement of the city.
In 1872 this able veteran of the Reyolu-
ton received the offer of professorship
Of engineering in the Military Academy
West Point, but declined the position. He
died at his home in Prince Georges
County, Md, June II, 1926.

John B. Russell died at indianapolis on
Thursday last in the Goth year of his age.
He was born at West Cambridge, Mass,
on July %, 1901. While in the seed bust
ness in Boston in 1880 he was the first to
introduce the packing of flower and
garden seeds in small packages, and sold
out his business TO Joseph Brock in 1882.
In 1888 he took his family to Cincinnati,
business and was connected with the Gin
cinnati Gdsstte from 1910 TO 1856. He
went to Washington in 1861 and was con-
nected with the Pension Department until
1874, when he was appointed Librarian of
the Department Of Agriculture, where he
remained about three years.
