To the Editor Of the Dispatch:
One morning this week noticed three
cars crossing the Barton n-Heights bridge
an the same time, two of these cars being
OF the largest size. probably weighing no
less than twenty-five tons each; the one OF
medium size seven TONS The large cars
were filed with young people, evioentiy
going to the park.
The query Is simply this: Supposing that
the bridge Is as strong as the ordinary

when the same results are obtained by

plepe severance OF all fraternal rela-
lions between the grand chapter Royal
Arch Masons of Virginia and the grand
chapter of Pennsylvania has been an
nelncsd by j. p. Steffncr, high priest
Ut the order in Virginia. The
cement Of this is made in a letter dated
Bristol, Va, July /, and addressed to
the officers. deputies, representatives
and members of the sovereign jurisdic-
Ito and is the outcome Of alleged Inn
proper treatment accorded a Virginia
Mason in Philadelphia. High Priest
Steiner IN his letter stated:
A constituent member of this grand
chapter in good and regular standing
n against whom no moral objections
w~ere-raised has been denied adrnittanae
to a subordinate chapter in Pennsylya-
MA, in violation of the reciprocal rights
guaranteed by the exchange of grand
representatives between the grand
chapters mentioned.
In conclusion the letter orders the
representatives to and from the respec-
tive chapters to eturn their commits
sion to the grand secretary and the
Virginia high priests are commanded to
deny admittance under all circunrstn-
ces and conditions to any Royal Arch
Mason of the grand chapter of Penn

tsdt assessors this year are making
no account of this tree growth for the
reason that the ten years for which
the law made exemptions has expired.
The law was passed in 1879, and was
intended to exempt for ten years. tax

five acres of trees, the chief object be-
