! Monument in Honor to Mary Wash
ingtOn.

Down in Fredericksburg. Virginia.
monument has been erected to Mary
Washington, the mother of the first
President Of the United States.
The handsome park in which it
stands was the gift Of the Fredericks-
burg Memorial Association. The shaft
will be shaded By the boughs of trees
that were transplanted there from
Mount Vernon. The grounds are in
closed by a handsome railing, and
lodge has been built. where keeper
will always be in attendance. In this
pretty little building meetings of the
board that has in charge the building
OF the memorial will be held. This
lodge is now occupied by woman of
distinguished fredericksburg family.
who acts as custodian. 1t is intended
that the grounds surrounding the mon
ument shall be decorated with shrubs
and flowers.
Within the enclosure lies the shaft
given many years ago by Silas Bur
rows Of New York. This was intend
ed for the monument, but the stone
was too much injured to be of any
service. There the stone lies, cher
ishcd gratefully by the Memorial AS
sociation as tribute Of one mans
patriotism.
1t is possible that next May the life
members of the association will as
semblc at Fredericksburg to receive
the Mary Washington monument into
their keeping and to formulate plans
80 that the monument and grounds
will forever be in the charge of those
who have patriotism at heart and who
love and revere the names of those
who have made American history.
There are only six hundred life
members of the association permitted,
and. with the exception of two hun
dred, this list is complete To become
life member a payment Of $25 is
necessary, and to the life member is
given silver star. A star of gold is
given each member on the payment of
an additional $40. This emblem of
patriotism may be transmitted from
mother to daughter, or by bequest,
and the grave of the mother of Wash
ington will forever be protected against
decay and vandalism
Thus far the association has expend-
ed $4,000, and now only 1000 is
necessary to complete the work. Sara
A. Pryor, Weep president of the asso-
ciation, who lives at No. 3 West Sixty
ninth street, New York, has been
particularly active in obtaining patri-
OTIS as members of the association and
looking after the work.

A Deserted City or Marble.

In the County of North Hastings,
Ont, is deserted town called
Bridgcwatcr. which is built entirely
Of marble. About twenty-five years
ago farmer wife we're searching in
the woods for a pig that had straycd
away In particularly dense part Of
the forest she found a cold spring Of
, crystal water and stopped to drink
from it. AS she did so she slipped on
round stone and fell into the water.
Attracted by the peculiar odor of the
stone she 6shcd it out and took it
homc. Investigation showed it to be
a twenty pound nugget Of almost pure
gold.
Within six months the wilderness
had blossomcd into the thriving town
Of Bridgcwatcr with five thousand
inhabitants. There were old Forty
miners from the Pacific slope. anna
tcurs from Great Britain and the Uni
ted States, prospcctors from every
field. Shafts and tunnels we're driven
by the hundreds. In the sinking of a
shaft mile south Of the town, on Il
claim Of Il. Flint, of Bcllcvillc, who
is now member Of the Canadian
Senate, Il vein of white marble was dis
covered. At the suggestion Of Flint,
who wanted little or nothing for the
material, the town Of Bridgcwatcr was
built of solid marble 1t has even to
this day court house, school. church,
hotel, stores and private dwellings
constructed wholly of this material
While the town was booming the
entire country was prospcctcd. Some
of the shafts and tunnels were driven
more than I: hundred feet in depth,
but, remarkable as it NAV seem, there
was never enough gold found to pay
the cost Of single mine in the dis
trict.
The place where the original nugget
was found was christcncd Aladdin 3
Cave, and the land in its vicinity.
sold at fabulous prices. One farmer
whose farm adjoincd the cave sold five
acres to an English syndicate for
sl0o,Oo0 cash. The syndicate spent
another Sl0O,ooo in developing the
claim, but never obtained an ounce of
free gold. An aged lrishman at
!Sridgcwatcr, Patrick kcough. rccciy-
ed an offer of sl25.0OO for his farm,
which consisted Of hundred acres of
rock-riled, barren land. He refused
the offer, holding out for $3.50, 900.
which he never got. To-day any one
could buy the property for 81 an acre.
