.EonN d. LONG, Secretary.
Assistant Secretary Roosevelt is
deeply interested in this subject, and
when he goes South to witness the
movements Of the torpedo hotilla he
will look into the question Of locating
the desired recruiting stations. 1t
must be remembered that these sta
tions cannot be established and main
tanned unless Congress authorizes the
necessary appropriations; therefore the
North Carolina, South Carolina, Gcor-
gia and Florida congressman might
find it to the advantage of their con-
stituents to look into the subject with
some care.
If the South proves herself to be o
fruitful field for naval recruiting why
should she not have big recruiting
rendezvous and receiving ship, such
as they have at New York, Boston, or
Mare Island, California The West
has sent some very desirable men and
boys into the service during recent
ears. The South has also some very
creditable representatives among the
enlisted men. O0e instance 1 recall
is that Of. Lee Boland; a Georgia lad,
who is now boatswain on board of the
Marion, having worked his way up to
the rank Of warrant officer from an
apprentice on board one of the train
ing ships. He is one of the brightest
young warrant officers in the services.
and he has life position, and it is
possible for him to reach salary limit
of 81 ,800'rer annnm, with allowances.
At the department it is said that pref
erence it always given to the boys of
the training ship classes in promotion
to the rank Of petty officers. Much
more could be written on this subject,
but have already shown that there is
no reason why American sailors should
not man American war ships.

REAL ESTATE GOSSIP
Rumors About the Purchase of an En-
tire Square.
A new F STREET OFFICE BUILDING
Some Features Of a Recent Archi-
tecturaI Competition.
E RECTION OF HOUSE

An interesting rumor is going around
to the effect that an effort is being made
to get control of the various pieces OF
property in the square bounded by Penn
sylvania avenue, Jackson place, H and
18th streets. A few days ago one Of the
property owners was approached by a real
estate agent, who said that he desired to
purchase the property, and a price was
named. 1t was stated in explanation OF
the purpose in buying this particular piece
that he was acting in the interest Of syn
dictate, representing English money, and
he said it was the intention if the entire
square could be obtained to erect there a
handsome hotel building. The names of
one or two well-known capitalists in this
city wer, mentioned as promoters of this
enterprise. According to the reports in
circulation nearly all tie property holders
on this square have been approached on
this subject, and it is said that several now
have the matter under consideration.

purposes in the early colonial days, and are
of course the keynote to the whole idea In
the construction of the house. The man
sion is very large. The rooms are immense,
some of them almost as large as the ordi-
nary rooms at the White House. The broad
portico at the entrance has large white
huted columns, and is approached by low
stone steps. There is spacious vestibule
and wide hall, the most important feature
of which is the staircase which is broad
enough to allow at least four persons to
walk up or down 1t abreast. There is a
generous-sized window above the first land
ing, which lights the hall. One side of this
English basement story is taken up with
kitchens, refrigerator rooms, etc. No hard
wood appears as yet in the trimmings of
the house. The entire space of the second
floor is taken up with the stair landing, the
drawing room, library, dining room and
pantry. The library is the largest room of
the suite and in the house. With the din
ing room 1t covers the entire front and
more than third of the depth of the build
ing.
The room is still in the rough but gives
evidence of what cheerful, bright effect
it VIII have. The east side of the room will
be taken up by the fireplace, and the coy
corners on each side of the hearth. Book
shelves will line the entire apartment and
almost it's height. The dining room and
pantry cover the entire depth on the west
side. The parlor faces New Hampshire
avenue and is large and oddly shaped. 1t
opens on loggia which has a handsome
ly tiled floor and row of f1uted columns,
which support the stories above The stair
case above the parlor floor is a winding
one, leading to the bedchambers. The
house has passenger lift and every pos
sible modern luxury in its construction.
There are several months more of work yet
to be accomplished, hardwood floors to be
laid, etc, before the finishing touches of
the decoration can be commenced.
Justice Gray's Home.
Justice Gray's roomy home, corner of
10th and 1 streets, has every advantage of
location. The structure is an old house,
considerably modernized,- and while as I'M
pretentious inside as without. is a very
comfortable dwelling, with the living rooms
communicating with each other. The ves-
thule entrance is deep and broad. The
parlors. the staircase, hall and dining room
cover the first floor. The simplicity of the
arrangement suggests the colonial style.
The staircase hall has ample width. The
main drawing room has the southwest cor
ner. and is a particularly bright and pretty
room. Where the windows pierce the walls
a. irregular spaces on the second story Is
Justice Gray's library. The book shelves
line the room and represent the cultured
taste of their New England owner as we'll
as his law library. The house has large
garden which Is overlooked by the windows
of the adjoining hotel. The steep roof of
the house and its almost square dimen-
sions give 1t an air of substantial solidity
and comfort which might easily be asso-
ciated with a much older dwelling in a
northern town.
