Among the many Influences contr''
butiug TO the prosperity Of f"Old Will
Iameite," one, and by no means
small one, Is the woman's college,
which has never been In 30 fiourishipg
condition as at present. IL is now n
home, In the truest sense Of the word,
an ideal home for girls, and parents all
over the country are beginning TO
rcaljzs THE fact.
1t Is hard to recognize the diDgy old
college, as we ent' the cheerfu', well
kept hall and comfortable rooms This
transformation Is wholly due to the
efficient management Of the presiding
genius, our present dean, Mrs. w. II.
Odell. Her strong, practical sense has
meet and mastered the exlgencies OF
every department of the college, while
her genial presence aud kindly spirit
are felt and recognized throughout the
entire home.
The well appointed dining room, un'
der the skill'ul supervision of the
matron, Mrs. Flowers, Is filled three
times day with bright glrllsh faces
and manly forms.
The nttractijeness Of this depart
ment is not n little enhanced by the
presence Of the two tiny waiting maids,
little Mamie and Carrie Flowers, who
serve the boarders with as much deft-
ness and grace,as If they were eighteen
and twenty years OF age, instead of
eight and ten.
The culinary department, which we
all acknowledge to be an important
one, perhaps the most important, even
Ia an institution DEVOTED to Intellectual
attainment, Is ably presided over by
Miss May Pattison, who has proved
herself to be a most successful caterer.
Huylng gone In and out together for
40 long in our routine Of college life,
until Prot. Brown was called home for
q time, then we fully realized that
"FIom iriendhips chain whatever link you
strike,
Tenth or ten-thousandeth, breaks the chain
alike"
But now that her genial presence
greets us IN parlor, hall and dining
room, we all agree th~t the wise man
never said q truer thing than that
"Hope deferred maketh the heart sick +,
but when the desire cometh 1t is "a tr, e
of life" Every day, almost every
hour, tie professor receives congratuis
tions upon the recovery of her mother
and her return to her home life in the
college and her classes In old William.

The Memorial Bridge.

There are many interesting and important
features in Secretary Lamont's annual re-
port that deserve prompt attention by Con-
the construction of memorial bridge across
the Potomac river should not be put aside
merely because it is the third time that the
Secretary has urged the project, but on the
contrary that fact of itself should bring IL
all the more forcibly to the attention of the
legislators There are many commercial as
wen as sentimental reasons for the construc-
ton of this great bridge that will be L
military structure closely connecting the
capital and its military post, a convenience
to the citizens of the District and the state
Of Virginia, and magnificent monument to
the dead heroes of the civil war The ma
tional capital Is today singularly deficient in
bridge constructions that deserve attention
either for their artistic worth or their prac-
teal usefulness. Indeed the existing struct-
ures are deplorablt plain and in one notable
case dangerous. Granting that the bridge
Is needed, the only question remains as to
how great a sum shall be expended upon 1t
and how soon 1t shall be constructed. The
government can scarcely afford to build
bridge that will surely become a national
structure without making it of magnificent
proportions and enduring quality. The
plans that have been drawn for this bridge
have received the highest approval and
ample surveying has been done to demon
strate that the project Is wholly feasible at
the point chosen by the engineers

that the coming few months will be the
final and supreme test upon which will
depend the existence of the overhead troll
ley in Chicago. Inadvertently. no doubt.
the Times-Herald made the mistake Of
irtimating that the Washington conduit
railroad mentioned had not stood the test
Of winter, whereas that form of transpor
tation now in use On street has SUE
cessfully passed through two severe win
tiers. The test of hard weather is still to
be applied to the Ninth street line, which
is Of slightly different construction, but
no real fears are entertained by Washing
tcnians or the capitalists interested in the
enterprise for the complete triumph of the
conduit system over snow. ice and rain.
The system has successfully resisted the
winters of Buda-Pesth. which are more
severe than those of Washington. The
narrowing of the slot and the perfecting
of other parts of the mechanism have
tended to decrease the danger from eli
matte causes and local patrons of the road
that Is now being watched so carefully ly
the street railway engineers of the country,
and. by the way, it should be noted that
this road is now the center of all scientific
attention, have no apprehension that their
use Of the road will be interrupted to any
serious extent during the coming winter.
The Times-Herald is right; the overhead
trolley Is dangerous and rude centrivance
that has fulfilled it's function of inaugu-
rating the era of electrical rapid-translt
and Of paving the way for better and
safer methods.

The Secretary of War voices a wide public
sentiment when he pleads in his annual re-
port for the creation of a permanent COM
mission to pass upon all questions of art
involved in the erection of monuments and
statues at the national capital The exist
ence in the past of such a board of compe-
tent artists and architects would have
caused the monuments of the city, which are
really national in their character, to present
at this time more homogeneous appearance
and stricter fidelity to the best principles
OF art. In the matter of the selection of
sites. too, advice could profitabiy have been
taken in many cases from men who would
look upon the matter from the point of suita-
bility and harmony of surroundings and per-
haps there would have been avoided some
positive incongruities that now exist The
city will soon receive many additions to its
already munifcent store of monuments, and
the creation Of this permanent commission
should not be postponed until all the best
sites along the magnificent avenue extending
from the Capitol to the White House and on
other thoroughfares of the city have been
occupied.
