LAPORTE, PA, FRIDAY, FE

cupies site almost rs beautiful as
Mount Vernon. Wellington Hall was
built by Washington in 1768 on a por-
tion of the estate comprising 600
acres. and during his life it was occu-
pied by Colonel Tobias Lear, who lives
in history as Washington's military
secretary and lifelong friend. Colonel
Lear was also tutor to the Curtis chill
dren and for more than thirty years
was member of Washington's family.
It is said the first President built
Wellington Hall for Colonel Lear's
use, but whether this be true or not,
he certainly occupied it for most OF
his life. By his will General Wash
ington made Colonel Lear tenant
for life, rent free, and he lived on the
place until his death in 1916. His re-
mains now repose in the Congressional
Cemetery in Washington.
After Tobias Lear's death Yelling
ton Hall passed into the hands of the
collateral branch of the Washington
family, the last occupant being
Charles A. Washington, grand
nephew. He was harum-scarum sort
of chap, very dIssipated, and under
his management the estate soon ran
down. The old inhabitants tell funny
stories about Charley" Washington
and his career as farmer. On one
occasion he took some plowshares to
Alexandra to be sharpened, which
were urgently needed in the spring
plowing, but falling in with some
cronies he was induced to go off for a
months sojourn at the Springs" and
never came back until the wheat crop
had gone by default. Charley
Washington was great theorist. lie
once read in farm paper that the
most profitable crop one could grow
was barley. So he planted ten acres.
When the barley ripened he had it
''failed" out and loaded on four
horse wagon and started it for the
Alexandria market. "Charley" went
on ahead on horseback to dispose OF
the load. But barley he found was az
unknown grain in the Alexandria mar
ket and there was no sale for it; but
after u whole days tramping he sue
ceeded in ira ling the load of barley to
brewer for barrel of beer, which he
sent homo and stored in his cellar.
The news of the transaction leaked out,
and the same night dozen of Char
ley's cronies in Alexandria paid visit

Cheap Goods Mean Cheap Men.

The Pennsylvanis Railroad Com.
pany has contracted to buy 10000
tons OF steel rails from the Pennsyl.
vania, the Cambria and the Edgar
Thomson Steel Works, at $22 per ton,
the lowest price ever paid for steel
rails in the United States. The re-
duction in prices of rails and other
steel productions precipitated the SER
ious cut in wages, in consequence OF
which the present distressing labor
strikes and disturbances were organ
lied. We need not mention the main
factor which operated to bring about
these conditions. 1t is well known to
the free traders.

A little less than 1000 miles of rail-
road were built in the United States
last year. That is almost the low
water mark in railway building,
though the years 1865, 1866 and 1875
made likewise a meagre showing. For
five years now the additional annual
mileage has shown steady and rapid
decline. In 1890, 567O miles were
built; in 1891, 1882, and in the three
ensuing years, respectively, 4178,
1886 and 1919, bringing the record
down to January l, 1895. But all
signs now indicate that the bottom has
has been reached, and that the busi-
ness will again resume its normal vol
ume and activity. 1t is of great i'm
portance to the prosperity of the coun-
try at large that this form of industry
be not impeded or prostrated by adj
verse and ill-considered legislation, as
it sometimes has been, and it is to be
hoped that oil artificial obstacles to
its resumption will be speedily re-
moved. There are in the United
States 1862 miles of CON pleted
road. $4,000 of which has been laid in
the last ten years. Between this and
the year 1900, with any luck at all, we
ought to reach the 800, ,OOO-mile lime,
and are quite likely to do SO. 1t looks
now as if steel rails would soon De
turned out at $15 per ton, fact which
in itself will impart powerful impulse
to railway building and all the indus
tries allied with it,

George Washington's Birthday.

1t was George Washington's birth
day. The bells we're ringing and the
cannon we're booming in commemora-
tion of the Father of His Country. Lit

full beyond her years, was gazing out

HEART-COIN.

One day gave my hearts best dover
To one whose tears were flowing,
My sympathy in that dark hour
Her poor, grieved heart was knowing.
To me she gave rose, to-s,y,
From out her love and sorrow;
'Tis ever thus along life's way,
We lend, o. else we borrow.
DID we remember Glove or hate
Tho like to us will render,'
Maybe, sometimes, before too late,
Our words would be more tender!

Equality in Wages Wanted.

Men do not mind working side by
side with each other, no matter what
their nationality, when established
conditions of wages and labor are not
placed in jeopardy thereby. The re-
fusal Of the men at Homestead to work
with a contingent of Hungarians was
because the latter were introduced for
the purpose of demoralizing the wage
scale, not because they were Hungar-
i0ns.
