fpany 3, Seyentieth Regiment of Virginia
Volunteers, was arrested yesterday at
ternoon by Deputy United States Mar
shall Bendit, on the charge OF sending
obscene matter through the mails.
The arrest was the sensational culmi-
nation of the case which Postof1ice IN

the last two weeks, on the clue of an
obscene and insulting card sent from
Richmond to President Roosevelt short
while after the Booker Washington din
ner incident.

was taken before United States Com
missioner Henry Flesenheimer in his
private law office and bailed for his ap-

The restora ton of Westover, the famous
home of Colonel William Byrd, founder

Work is now in progress, which, when

The accompanying picture, made from

It's building was superintendent by Colonel
Byrd in person. The estate was lately
purchased by Mr.. William NIcC. Ramsey,
whose wife is a lneal descendant of the
famous founder of the homestead. He
has entrusted to Captain NJ. J. Dimmock
the veteran architect of this city, the in
teresting task of renewing one Of the most
noted country estates in America. The
cost of the improvements will run far into
the thousands.
The most conspicuous addition to be
made to the mansion is the erection of the
east wing, which was destroyed many
years ago and has been forgotten. Cap

existence of this lost section by digging
