road will be found to be perhaps better
than any of the others. The distance from
the Aqueduct bridge to the Chain bridge
is given as three miles. After crossing the
Chain bridge, keep the road to the right
and continue to Langley. The first part Of
this road will be found to be hilly, but rid
able. At Langley, which Is three miles
from the bridge take the road to the left
a fine macadam stretch, and three miles fur
ther on Is Lewinsville. Continuing straight
on through the cut and over a dirt road,
Tyson's Crossroads is reached, after two
miles of riding. Turning to the left and
riding on the Alexandria and Leesburg pike
a few minues' ride will bring Dunn-Loring
station in sight. This road is to the right
and If followed will lead to the Fairfax
road at Mills Crossroads. Turn to the left
again, and in a few minutes the camp will
be in view
A third route by way of the Aqueduct
bridge is to keep straight on to Fort Myer,
and through the garrison, as If going to
Arlington cemetery. Instead of taking the
short stretch of road leading to the ceme-
terry, keep straight to the west, pass by the
riding hall and turn sharply to the left, fol-
lowing the road which marks the western
bounds of the post. Follow this road for
mile or so, and then turn to the left on a
side road, distinguished by the telegraph
poles along the side. This road runs into
another road near little church, and con-
Crossroads will be reached Turn to the
right and follow the Leesburg pike to Falls
Church and to the camp. This route is be-
tween eleven and twelve miles from the
District end Of the Aqueduct bridge.
A way of reaching the camp from WASH
ington by the Long bridge is to follow the
Columbia pike" to the Leesburg pike at
Bailey's Crossroads. turn to the right and
keep on to the camp. This Is fully twelve
miles from the District end of the Long
bridge. The Columbia pike" may not be
found to be In the best condition. but a
skillful wheelman ought to pick out a rid
ing path.
From Alexandria the camp can easily be
reached by following the Leesburg pike
and turning off at Falls Church. Tne dis
tance is not over twelve miles, the route
being as direct as possible.
1t is suggested that the bad stretch Of
road between Falls Church and the camp
might be avoided by following the steam
railway track. There is path almost the
entire distance by the track from Falls
Church to Dunn Loring, which can be used,
but which win make the journey anywhere
from half mile to q mile longer. Stu,

Modifying Cable Cen.orshin.

The government censorship on cable dis
patches has been modified to the extent of
allowing commercial houses to send code
messages to Venezuela and Brazil. The
only restriction on these messages is that
they shall not pass between Spanish off,
cials. The modification was due to urgent
requests from commercial houses having
large cable correspondence with Venezuela
and Brazil. The restrictions not only in
terrupted their business, but subjected
them TO heavy expense In not being able to
condense messages to a cipher code. Gem
eral Greedy, in charge of the telegraphic
and cable lines. felt that the modification
would not involve any disadvantage to the
government.

Our DiIapidated Naval Academy.
Golfers Weekly.


rhe Naval Academy at Annapolis is on
the verge of falling to pieces. In build
ings now ramShackle through age-build-
ings put UP in the forties fiftes and sixties,
never intended to be used more than few
years, with plaster dropping from the CELL

head, and with a host of inconvenience,
such as cramped accommodations and some
ture naval officers are now receiving their
training That the professors, with an
armory whose walls are so battered that
they have to be propped up and 81 boat
house too small by half for the drills as
they are now given, can work out the
naval curriculum satisfactorily is a high
tribute to their ability.
The condition of the famous old academy
has long been growing worse, the current
appropriations not affording enough money
for mere necessary patching. Three winters
ago matters were so serious that Congress
was implored to come to the rescue. De-
tailed recommendations were made, show
ing that hardly a building on the grounds
was fit to stand, and complete new acad-
piece by piece, if Congress so willed. But
some new buildings We're Immediately and
imperatively necessary-this was the unani-
nous cry of the officials, who dwelt on the
bad sanitation. danger to professors and
students, and the disgraceful appearance Of
the old, gray, lettering structures.
Three years have come and gone since
then, and the academy, on the finest site
a sea school of instruction ever had still

improvements, let alone a group of new

navy should certainly have Why this has
not already come, why those that can bring
it about lag and delay is mystery. Es-
pecialy is it so when apprecia ton of sea
power is generally acknowledged to be
the trend of the twentieth century, when
as seems almost certain, the great battles
will be waged by war ships and command
ers, not by armies on land.

Angel and the sultan.

New York Evening Post
The report is current, apparently with
foundation. that Mr.. Angel, the minister
at Constantnople, is about to resign and
come home. Considering that he was sent
out to undo the effect of TerrelPs silly
determination with the Turk, his laying
down his office and returning must be con-
sidered a confession of failure. He has APP
piled to the Sultan for compensation for
the losses of the American missionaries in
Armenia, just as Terrell used to do. The
Sultan used TO stop Terrell with a dinner
or a cup of overland tea, but he appears
70 have discussed the matter with Angel.
He told him plainly he was not going to
get any compensation, because none was
due When Mr.. Angel telegraphed home for
instructions as to the best mode of meet
ing this argument, he was, il is said in
formed that he must let the Turk have it
his own way, for ii would never do to fight
but the sultan would declare war wa q AGAINST it
US and send his fleets after us, and then
where should we be? The best thing Mr.
Angel can do is to come home and attack
him in the Michigan newspapers.
