THE BEAUTIFUL ROCK CREEK PARK,
BY CHARLES NJ. SHINN

there pedestrians find mere bride paths.
The Geological Park. in which Washing
tonians also take lively interest borders
upon the southern extremity of the greater
reservation. North of the Zoo is Klingle
road and in that vicinity the creek takes
the form Of huge Z and the waters are
very swift. A road leading to the Pierce
Mill site winds along an overhanging
precpice where a chasm descends to a
depth of eighty feet Above Pierce's Mill
is Bagden's Mill, once a paper mill, where
the left bank of Rock creek becomes a
wooded bluff. The Blagden estate was once
the country seat of Count Bodisco, who was
for years the Russian minister to this coun-
try.
Added to the romantic features of the
section are many of historic interest. John
Howard Payne. who lies buried in a ceme-
terry on the slopes of the creek above
Georgetown, found the valley to be of
great attractiveness, and it was one of his
favorite places of resort. John Quincy
Adams had a temporary home near the
mill he had built on the creek bank, and
along the stream are reminders of the civil
war in the earthworks which constituted
part of the Gordon of forts which encirced
the capital city.
If there had not been reason to believe
poses would eventually be most objection

project received for twenty-five years more
or less attention, but at intervals only and
not through systematized effort. 1t was
advocated by the local officials and other
citizens of the District, was before both
houses of Congress and was considered by
several successive Presidents of the United
States, the agitation eventuating in Con-
gress becoming so impressed with the
merits of the scheme that legislation was
enacted in 1890 which practically assured
the establishment of the much coveted res
ervation.
The wisdom of this disposition of the
ground, as repeatedly pointed out in The
Star, was demonstrated more forcibly
than it could have been by tongue or
pen when it became manifest that I'M
less the creek could be preserved from pol
luton the cost would be millions more than
the park would entail. Those who were
but little impressed by the prospect of a
beautiful place for rest and recreation were
startled into activity by the evidence that
the project had in it the elements of
sound business proposition

1880 of the appropriation unexpended.
The files of The Evening Star contain
accurate record of the successive steps
For 200 years or more the valley had been
noted for it's natural beauty and attractive
ness, and more than thirty years ago the
project of converting it into a place of
recreation was seriously debated. Its loca-
ton was regarded in all respects desira-
ble and at no other point of the compass
in Washington's vicinity could there be
found equal area so admirably adapted
to the purpose.
1t was not until 1888 that the public rec
ords embodied anything definite regard
ing Rock Creek Park. 1t had been proposed
in 1880 by Captain Hoxie of the Corps of
Engineers that the entire valley be con-
verified into a public reservation with an
ornamental lake reservoir, to be formed by
a system of dams. and November II, 1888,
three prominent citizens-W. w. Corcoran,
w. Strong and Josiah Dent-joined in a
letter to the District Commissioners, calling
attention to the abandoned project and
urging the deSirabiIity of securing the
grounds for public park without needless
delay
But little success attended the earlier ef-
fort of the park advocates before Congress,
though the matter was brought forward at
each successive session, but agitation was
revived in the winter of 1885 80, when the
people of the District made such a show Of
strength in it's favor that Congress was

able from a sanitary point of view it was
argued that to dissolve the charm of the
environment by removing the forest trees
and leveling the hills of the most delight
full of natural formations was needless,
and, in addition, most repugnant to the
artistic sense.
A Matter of Speculation.
No one knows just when it was that
white men first beheld the beautiful val
map, made by Captain John Smith when
he explored England's new possession
outlined the course of the stream from
which the section derived it's name. The
aboriginal tribes which then peopled the
upper Potomac region were variouSly
known the Anacostans, the Monocans
and the PottaWotomies. What name they
gave Rock creek and it's environs is not
known, but Congress once referred to the
the onococheque-whether by authority
from the aborigines or by merely guessing
at the probabilities in the case is not
stated. But Rock creek it is now. and it is
noted as a coincidence that the stream is
the dividing line between the two geological
formations in the Potomac valley.
1t this territory that Major Michler
of the Engineer Corps included in a map,
prepared in 1867, in response to a resolution
of the Senate and which map outlined a
public park, similar in very many respects
to the which today adorns the north
west suburbs of the national capital. The

Menace to Health.

The unhealthfuness of a walled sewer, to
say nothing of the cost of construction and
maintaining it, was made manifest by
demonstration in Congress and out. Per-
sistent agitation and Importantly finally
prevailed against opposition and procrasti-
nation, the national lawmakers authorizing
the acquisition of a beautiful park, the area
including 1868 acres and the expenditure
amounting to $1,174,511 leaving 49,

A Picturesque Wilderness.

All the elements which are desired in a
public resort are found in the Rock creek
valley-a wild and romantic tract where
trees have stood for ages and into the soil
of which plowshare has never made a fur
row. 1t has charming walks and drives
which required not the labor or skill of
man to provide. Splendid wales, diversified
scenery, primeval forests and running
waters; rocks, adorned with rich ferns and
moses; lights and shadows, varying shrub
berry, extended views, peaceful surround
ings-all these and many other pleasing fea
lures are afforded within the confines of
the park, presenting a variety and charm
beyond the cavil of the most fastidious.
Not far from the Maryland line are the
so-called Rock Creek Falls, the principal
object of the widest landscape on the
stream. For a hundred rods from this
point the stream tumbles white with spray
and foam over boulder after boulder The
descent is ninety feet in as many rods
Near Brightwood the Military road crosses
the creek at one of it's prettiest points, and
along the stream for it's entire course the
banks are continually changing in aspect
with new and picturesque views disclosed
at every turn.
