CAPACITY TO BE DOUBLED.
improvements Contemplated to Plant
of Local Ice COmnanx.

The ice plant of the Crystal Plate Ice
Company, at Both and K streets, is to be
enlarged, so as to increase the present
capacity for manufacturing purposes. When
the improvements are completed the ca
pacity will be about doubled, so that the
daily output will be about 100 tons per
day. 1t will then be one Of the largest
concerns of the kind In the city.
The increase in the extent Of this in
dustry has been quite marked during the
past few years. and 1t is now estimated
that the six artificial ice plants in opera
ton In the District are able to supply the
local demand during the winter season.
The consumption during the warm season
is five or six times that Of the winter, and
so the local product is supplemented by
what is known foreign ice, or that
which is brought here from Maine.
The ice trade here is practically con-
trolled by the American Ice Company,
concern which is also engaged in business
in other large cities and which has large
property interests in the Maine ice fields.
There are, however, two artificial plants
here which do business independently OF
the large concern, the other plants either
having been bought outright when the
principal ice companies here were organ
lied, or which sell their output exclu-
sively to the principal company.

the subject Of 'tMan's Future In Gods
Plan" The theme. it Is understood. will
be treated in the lucid and harmonious
manner in which the author of "Millennial
Dawn" has made the seeming contradic-
lions and incongruities Of the Bible appear
to be but parts Of one well-deflned plan,
which. seen in Its entirety, evinces the wis
dom of its maker and clears up the mys-
terry of the various clashing creeds Of
christendom. Mr.. Diapers presentation of
the subject Of death and the resurrection
during the millennium, while awakening
considerable discussion among students Of
the Bible. Is said to be most convincing.
His services are given to the Bible So
ciety, which makes no charge for attend
ance at the lectures. nor allows any COL
lection to be made. Mr.. Draper is return
Ing from tour in the south, and will make
only two public addresses during his visit

Street Railroad Suggestions.
10 the Editor Of The Evening Star:

To the Editor of The Evening Star:
If the Commissioners really have the
welfare of the residents Of the District at
heart they will order change of schedule
of running time of certain street railways
to suit the demands of the public. The
writer was compelled to stand forty min
utes in the pouring rain of Sunday, and
Monday twenty minutes, at either end of
the line, waiting for a car to the northeast
lexington and Brookland). When at last
one did come 1t was crowded, every seat
taken, whiles the aisles were filled with
persons. clutching dripping umbrellas, and
endeavoring to cling to the straps, which
were in many cases almost out Of reach.
No one could be moral under such condi-
lions. If this suggestion is needed and the
Commissioners do examine the street
cars trust that they will not overlook the
condition of the so-called TENDERS" no
two of which are hung at the same angle,
some barely escaping the track on one
side. while on the other they hang at least
sixteen inches above the rail. They sug-
gest the idea OF being designed to hit big
men, little men, women and children but
as q protection to life and limb they are
utterly worthless, and should be attended
to before a serious accident demands 1t.

The Lessons of the Trees,
To the Editor of The Evening Start

10 Ine EullOr OF Inc EYenlng Start
1t is pleasing to learn that 'the Agri-
cultural Department is taking an active
interest in the suggestion that the trees
and shrubs in the public parks and squares
In Washington be labeled, and has taken
the initiative In the matter" Let us hore
that not only the signs will be made so
plain that 'he who runs may read" them,
but that the history, also. of every variety
Of trees. shrubs. vines. etc. (and of each
individual In the many varieties which has
and published and made easily accessible
to everybody who may care to know it.
Such a history, as far as the trees,
shrubs, etc, in Capitol Park and National
Botanic Garden are concerned. can only be
composed In its entirety by one person,
namely. Mr.. William r. Smith, who. during
more than quarter Of a century, has
been the superintendent OF the National
Botanic Garden. This fact was empha-
sized in a conversation Ito which 1 was
privileged listener) between Senator Nor
gan of Alabama, and Mr.. Smith, in the
course of which Mr.. Smith developed the
fact that every one of the hundreds (prob-
ably thousands) of trees and plants in the
Capitol Park and in the Botanic Garden
has an interesting history; what 1t is.
where it came from (many of them are
from foreign countries as well as from
different sections of our own country. why
1t was purchased, or by whom donated, etc.
Senator Morgan very earnestly insisted
that Mr.. Smith ought to make record OF
these statements of interesting historical
facts, and, addressing Mr.. Smith, the SEN
ator remarked that, in view OF the fact
that no other person possesses all OF this
information, II is the patriotic (even IL not
the officiaD duty OF Mr.. Smith to take
stenographer and go, systematically,
through both the Capitol Park and the Bo-
tanic Garden and write the history of every
tree, shrub. vine or other plant that Is
known to him. I'm order that It may be

Gently held a meeting at Travilah for the
purpose Of taking steps looking to the for
nation of an organization to promote the
general interests Of the farmers Of that

vilah neighborhood 1t was shown that
the yield of wheat ranged from eighteen to
thirty-three bushels per acre, of corn about
nine barrels per acre, while the hay crop

return than any other crop, and that clover
is the most beneficial crop to the land that
can be raised.
