ened lands.

Washington Will Have The Finest.
WnShinOt01l Star

The new station will be the finest structure
of its kind in the world. It's length will be
760 feet, which is feet inches longer than
the Capitol itself; it will be built of white
marble, with the interior of masonry; the
classical style of architecture will be used,
and the building will be so located and de-
signed as to be distinctly subordinate to the
Capitol and yet to take rank among the great
public structures of the District. The mini
mum cost of the station has been placed at
S4,000,000 but the total cost will be nearer
S5,00O,0O0.
The station is arranged for 20 tracks, with
room for seven additional tracks. thus pro-
viding for an indefinite future. The public
convenience has been studied with the result
that persons arriving or departing will be &C
commodated without loss of time, and pri-
vate entrance is provided for use of the Presi-
dent of the United States and for ceremonial
occasions. All street-car lines will receive and
discharge passengers in close proximity to the
station, and ample accommodations are pro-
vided for bodies Of troops and great delegations
arriving or departing at inaugural times or
when other large gatherings occur at the capital.
In a word, every provision has been made for
great, dignified, convenient accessible gate
way TO the capital of the nation.

President May Become a Baltimore
County Huntsman.-A Baltimore paper says
President Theodore Roosevelt is apt to be
scratched out of bed before light some morn
ing next fall for boots and saddle and away
over the stiff hunting country of Green Spring
Valley in a chase after the hounds of the Green
Spring Valley Hunt Club. A plan has been
talked of by influential members of the club
to have the President elected an honorary or
active member of the club, and to invite him
here next fall for some of the rare sport after
the Green Spring hounds. President Roose-
welt is one of the best cross country riders in
this country and it is his pleasure to take some
of the stiffest fences on the course used by the
Chevy Chase pack. The riders of the Green
Spring Club believe that they can take the
President whirl compatible, even, with his
idea of the strenuosity of things.

Hebbville, I'd District.-Birds, chickens
and squirrels have no monopoly in the matter
ofgrowing rich by feeding on locusts. Several
days ago a citizen of this place noticed his
canine devouring the cicada in preference to
beef. We might believe that even the canine
realizes the fact of the present exorbitant price
of beef
1t is too early yet in the year to hope for a
surcease of horrors and refreshing period of
rest and quiet. The terrors of the Fourth of
July are yet to come, when the possession of
nerves is looked on as a distinct lack of pat
riotism.
st. Luke's NJ. E. Church of this section held
a strawberry and ice-cream festival in the
grove adjoining the church, on the 9th and 9th
instant.
Children's day services were observed Sun
day evening last at Hebbville Evangelical
Church. An instructive and interesting pro-
gram was rendered, consisting of Rotations,
solos and choruses. The pulpit was decorated
with potted plants, evergreens ard flowers.
The little girls were attired in white and car
ried bouquets of choice flowers.
This section was visited by heavy down
pour of rain last Saturday afternoon, which
was considered blessing by the farmers. The

worth thousands of dollars. The rain dam
aged the country roads to large extent.
