To the Editor OF The Evening Star:
The tragic death OF Mira Downs. at the very
door of the Capitol. on the 3Oth. escaped nav
notice until recently. Now. l find as usua,
The STARS account shows more careful writing
than any of the papers. / ask space in it's
columns for an article that may reach the lady S
friends. In the summer of 1885. one Sunday
saw long account of the death OF Mr.. King
man Iage in New York. an editor of note and
well known years ago i'll this city. AT once
sought Mrs. Downs and asked her If il was the
person l had heard her say married Mr..
Downs relative. OH New Jersey avenue near
the Congressional Hotel. 1t was the same per-
son. am sure the paper is among her effects
The Garfield papers l surmise were KEEP: for a
business reference only, as she had trouble get
tlrg her insurance, and probably had Mr.
Downs name in them. l spent several hours
with her on that occasion: she gave me ali the
family history on both sides. Her grandfather.
who was English. raised her. She was we'll
educated and claimed to belong to the Knicker-
bockers of New York. In 1888 when she lived
with Miss Mary Loeb on East Capitol street,
her little oil stove exploded and burned her
eyebrows and bangs. Ny belief from wears OF
intimate knowledge OF her habits is this: She
had habit OF wrapping her head and shoulders
in many articles of clothing, or an-thng in
reach, as she sat for hours reading. She could
not breathe from coal heat. so she used good
wood fires. Her old stove was safe, but she
would jump up in the bundle of wraps, strike
match to start her stove on the table 10 cook
Ing. L saw the fringe on a shawl over her head
catch the fame the instant the match was lit.
l said then, "You will one dav have fatal
burn, L fear" Her properties on l. street
Virginia avenue and ii street. respectively, are
worth more than 81 400 She often told me her
plans and extracted promises from me that il
was the longest lived the estate should go TO
erect a monument on her lot in Congressional
cemetery, and she would leave a small amount
in trust to pay the cost of putting flowers on
her grave. All the years after Mr. Downs
death she devoted to his grave and his memory.
Her effects are nothing but trash. She had
only Mr.. Downs life insurance, with which she
bought the three houses named. She used
choice food and selected il herself. Among
my effects have a memorandum written from
her verbal statements. She often spoke of a
family on the Hudson who had her childhood
keepsakes, a handsome large doll being one of
the lot. She anxious to have them but she
said that as soon as they found out where she
was they would seek her, and she was SO
changed she could not bear it.

Sims Lost the Lake Clifton Road Race
Through q Collision.
Third place was the best the thirty-nine
Washington wheelmen could secure at the Ave
mile handicap road race of the Clifton Wheel
men at Lake Clifton, near Baltimore, yester-
day. They returned last evening well pleased
with their hospitable reception by the Balti-
more men. although it is claimed that the track
management was not as good as it should have
been. the free admissions to the grounds gath
ering a crowd of nearly $1,000, the track being
at times badly crowded. thereby badly handi-
Gaping the contestants. 1t is also said that the
track was not in good condition, although fair
time was made
Sims Of the Washington Road Club was
knocked from his wheel on the second lap by a
boy running across the track.
The Baltimore american thus describes the
accident: AS Sims. the great Washington
rider. who was started on the scratch. came at
his hardest pace down the homestretch on this
lap, rapidly making up the distance that the
Handicapped gave him, young man started
across the track. Sims front wheel struck
the luckless intruder in the back, knocking him
into a heap on the track. The rider described
an aerial somersault and landed on his back
Bowen, also of Washington, collided with the
tumble. and was thrown, but quickly righted
and went on his way. The machine of Sims
was so twisted that it could not be used. and he
had to drop out of the event when he seemed u
likely winner"
Woman of the Chesapeake Wheelmen OF Bal
timore captured the first place in 16. 2314. but
in actual time of IA. IS , with a minute and n
half of handicap. This was also declared the
time record by the officials. but the Arlington
Wheelmen of this city, who had watches on
Bowen of their own club. asserted that his
time was l44S. which would have entitled him
to the time prize, though owing to his having
but thirty seconds handicap he did not finish
with Wolman. and his time was not taken BY
the judges. Second place was taken by French
of the Pattison Club of Baltimore in 16 minutes
flat. and third went TO Terry of the Arlingtons.

The fishing season thus far has not borne
out the glowing prophecies made a few weeks

light for this season and reports from down

prosperity.

from Alexandria, where she received her spring

lumber for the switchback railway at River
