He vas n young Prince Charming

hardships and, till his misfortune sOurtd
him, not only kind, but Of an uncom
mon and almost impolitic humanity.
Well might Walton, the spy, pronounce
him, with tho blood Of John Sobiesk in
his veins, "a far more dangerous enemy
70 the present establishment Of the gov.
eminent In England than ever his ia
ther was"
In those days, when n king Of some
sort was a necessity, England seemed to
have in Charles a king born to be
adored. But the tendency of things was
inyincibly against him. He appears, ]
own to myself, to have had better quail
titles than any man Of his line since the
FORTH James fell at Flodden. There
was nothing in his Scotch expedition,
till the fntal morrow of Culloden, that
did not become a gentleman and a king.
The C-ameronians, a feeble, but ~virulent
remnant Of the auld leaven Of the COW
enant, publicly blamed his foolish
lenity and pity" to the "redcoats whom
Providence put into his hands"
IL his courage IS accused, so has that
Of Marlborough been, and the evidence
Of Malcolm Mcleod, "never was a man
not a coward so prudent, nor a man not
rash so bravo, F" may be taken as dispos-
ing Of a childishly malevolent accusa-
ton. BE was gentle and considerate till
misfortune taught him suspicion and
hope deferred made the heart sick. Tho
exposure, which no bore so CALAMITY in
the highlands, and the habits Of that
country, taught him his fatal vice, which
corrupted and debascd a character nat
urally noble aud generous. -Scribner's

read the newspaper accounts. The former
said it would not be proper to discuss 1t
in advance of q board meeting. with time
for consideration OF the whole subject, and
Major Powell acquiesced.
'I notice one thing in the publication Of
the opinion" added Major Powell. ''The
papers say that Judge Cole intimated the
advisability of non-action upon the part
of the board until the road has time to
provide other equipment.
Reference seems to have been made
also, TO the evident purpose OF Congress to
abolish the horse-car system in the Dis
trict, and the inference Is that should the
trolley poles be removed the company will
be obliged to resort to horsepower in
propelling its cars"
The Engineer Commissioner, from what
he has said heretofore, believes the COM

change its motive power. and comply with

which are complete. The contracts viii

One of the new sewers win run from a
point near and Just below the Chesapeake

will be built as a relief to the water
conduit that supplies power to the two
mills on its line, one once known as Hers
mills, and now occupied as an ice factory,
and the other operated as Cissell's Flour
ing Mills. The conduit is obstructed by
the underground machinery Of these two
establishments and does not afford suffi-
cient means of outlet. The sewer will be
of concrete or brick masonry.
The lexington sewer will run dis
tance of $50 feet. from Florida avenue
and Brentwood road to Fourth street to an
existing sewer, and from and Fifth
streets to an existing sewer at Fifth and
T streets. 1t will also be constructcd of
brick or concrete.
There are a number OF pipe sewers in the
list. Among these is one eighteen inches
in diameter inside, to be laid between Ken
lucky avenue and Fifteenth street south
east. Another twenty-four inch pipe sewer
viii be laid in Thirteenth street southeast,
from K street to center of Georgia avenue.
One will be laid also in Water street,
between Twenty-third aud Twenty fourth
streets, thence north about half q block.
1t will be eighteen inches in diameter, in
side measurement. Another of brick or
concrete, will be placed in Tenth street,
between H and K streets northeast. 1t
will be egg g-shaped, 2x3 feet. Still an
other pipe Sc wer will be placed in A street
southeast, between Fourteenth and FIJI

They were very much pleased with the

willing to express an opinion as to the
merits of either plant.
Commissioner Truesdell faid he had no
opinion 10 give out upon the subject, and
would have none until he could confer
with his colleagues. He could not deter
mine whether or not action will be de-
ferred until the Anderson crematory can
