TO BEAuTiFY WASHINGTON.

| The national capital of our nation is
| regarded by many as the most beauti-
| full city in our country. An enormous
| sum was expended in building up an at
tractive city from a swampy waste.
Boss Shepard added much to its
beauty by completely transforming it
| and some of it's linattractive features.
Yet the people of Washington are not
fully satisfied. and it is announced that
plans which have been under discus
| sion for number of years past for the
| identification of the city are expected
to take shape during the present ses-
| sion of congress. Bills have been intro
duced for this purpose. 1t is now stated
! that a commission Of architects of ack-
| nowedged ability has completed after
a years study and travel abroad
| among the most beautiful cities of the
world, a general plan for the heautifi-
cation and ACKNOWLEDGMENT Of the city.
1t will take two decades or more to be
worked out. 1t will require appropria-
tion; by succeeding congresses. If this
plan is adopted and brought to fruition
the national capital will be the most
beautiful city in the world. The plan
contemplates the extension OF the boul-
evard system. A beautiful park along
the entire city frontage toward the his
torieal Potomac is part of the scheme
A memorial bridge. taking the place of
the great Long bridge" the adoption
Of classical style of architecture, to
which all public buildings shall conform
in future; the tearing way of the old
rookeries which have long been an eye
sore on the south side of Pennsylvania
avenue; the creation OF broad plaza
leading from the national capitol to the
tall white shaft erected to the memory
the .irst president are but few of the
principal features OF the gigantic plan
under consideration. Recently salts
factory negotiations have been con-
Quoted looking to the abandonment of
the land holdings of the PENNSYLVANIA
railroad In the Mall. Indications now
favor the building of grand union
passenger station in the vicinity Of the
senate stables, on the north side of Cap
i:ol hill and about where the present
Baltimore and Ohio station is located.
This will necessitate the building of
tunnel thru Capitol hill giving the rail
roads an outlet to the south.
Efforts will be earnestly made to lead
congress to be liberal in its appropria-
tions. Many of the members will not
need much coaching, as they regard the
city as under the especial care of con-
gress, and 1t Is probable that the plans
above mentioned may meet with fruit
ton In the near future.
