"The Wronu Mr.. Wriqht."

1t is reasonable to state that no en-
gagement ever announced in this city
is being so eagerly anticipated as
that in which that odd fellow" Har-
ry Beresford, will appear when he
presents Mr. George H. Broadhurst's
laughing farce, "The Wrong Mr..
Wright and through which he has
won an enviable reputation that seems
to have placed him on par with such
noted players as Nat Goodwin, Stuart
Robson and William H. Crane. A
noted critic in one of the metropoli-
tan cities even goes SO far as to
state that for daintiness, buoyancy,
respects the peer of his contempora-
ries Be that as it may. Mr.. Beres-
ford brings to play both delicate re-
finement and most exquisite drOllery
in his conception of Seymour Sites,
the inquisitive and flirtatiously in
clined old bachelor who meets his
nemesis in the person of a female
Sherlock Holmes at last. Mr. Beres-
ford will stage his play in a manner
most adequate and will bring with him
a company of player folks who have
been especially engaged for the yari-
theater tonight.

Accepts Leadership of Women.

The Countess of Aberdeen has ac-
cepted the nomination by the Cana
dian and other national councils Of
women as president of the Inter
national council, to succeed Mrs. May
Wright Sewall. She has done this on
the distinct understanding that the
next meeting of the International
council, which will come in the year
1909, shall be held in Canada, in ac-
cordance with the invitation of the
Canadian council, and she also wishes
it to be understood that when the
time arrives it may be possible for her
to accept the chief office. Lady Aber
deen was the first president of the
International Council of Women, and
women say that it was her wealth,
energy and social prestige more than
anything else which brought the or
ganization into existence and estab-
lished it in life.

Margery's cousin, Cecilia, was
eighteen and pretty. She was also
devoted to music and spent hours
practicing on large pipe organ. This,
with the fact that she invari-
ably wore rapt expression when so

was called to town and left her five
year-old daughter in charge Of an

showing her a collection of prints,

First Work Being Done With the New

Mr. J. S. Barraque has just returned
from the Princeton road, where he
has a force of men doing their first
work with q new Road King" grader.
Mr.. Barraque says that road build
ing at this season of the year, and
the way he can do it with the new
machine, will insure the best of roads
and good drainage next fall. Mr.. Bar
raque says the essential principle is:
Keep the water off and you always
have a good road The citizens will
be glad to know of this good work.
The better the roads are kept, the
more trade the merchants will get
1t will also lessen the expense OF
the farmer in getting his crop to
market. With good roads he can get
twice as much to town at one load
as he could with bad roads.

stead of Resident of Territory.

The appointment of Judge Clement G.
Smith. of Hastings, Mich, TO succeed
Judge Daniel II. Mcmillan. of the SUI
preme court of New Mexico is said to
BE- highly unsatisfactory to the resi-
dents Of the Territory. 1t was believed
in New Mexico that a resident of the
Territory would be appointed in the
event Of the success Of the campaign
against Judge Mcmillan.
Delegate Rodey of New Mexico, who
is In the city. last night said:
New Mexico VIII not stand for the
nomination of Judge Smith. We will
fight It 10 a finish. and l believe we can
prevent its confirmation by the Senate.
We want a citizen OF the Territory ap-
pointed TO fill McMlllan's position.
There are a number of men there capa-
bic of performing the duties attached
to II. Among others. might mention

DIVINE SARAH RUINS
DRESS TO PAY TRIBUTE
Bernhardt PourS Goblet of Win
Over Gown.

PARIS, June 23.-To pay classic tribute
TO Edmond Rostand. the dramatist, Sarah
Bernhard. deliberately ruined a suberb
gown by emptying a goblet Of champagne
on her head.
1t was at a dinner given 10 Rostand
10 celebrate his election to the Academy
OF Immortals, and Bernhard occupied
the place Of honor. She wore a mag
nifcent creation of falntly-tinted tulle
lace. and when the dessert arrived she
arose with a wineglass IN her hand and
commanded silence
Then she exclaimed: THUS do 1 pour
libations after the ancient custom TO
the divine poet" and upturned the cup
on her head. AS the wine trickled down
her hair and shoulders and thence 20
her gown she smiled. and saidato some
one who cried out that the dress would
be SPOILED:
1T was intended to be worn only on
this dav."
The picturesqueness Of the event was
slightly married, however, when the two
young sons Of Rostand emulated hel
example and poured so much wine over
their heads that they had to be taken
away and put TO bed.

COLLEGE OF CARDINALS
NOW NEARLY FILLED
No American Prelate Among Pope Leo's
Recent Selections.

The Sacred College OF Cardinals, the
advisory board to the Pope. now lacks
but one of It's stipulated number. Hal
it not been for the death Of Cardinal
Vaughan there would be seventy cardi-
nails whose opinions, advice and eoun-
sci bear largely on matters pertaining
to the Catholic religion.
The fact that the college is so nearly
filled is thought 70 be due to the Pope's
realization that he has not long 10 Eve.
Recent appointments which Leo made
have significant interest for Catholics
in America. as no additional consecra-
tions were made among American arch
bishops. Catholic authorities cite this
as signal honor for his eminencc.
Cardinal Gibbons, IN whom the Vatican
has the utmost faith. and whom. it is
said. the Pope desires 10 remain the one
great American cardinal. This con-
sideration is commented on as having
its influence in the movement within
the church in this country for the ele-
walton OF Archbishop Ireland TO the Col
Iege of Cardinals.
With changes Just made, German ana
| Austrian influence Will be much stronger
/ than French. the total being distributed
/ as follows: Germany, g. Austria. 4; Bo-
hemia, l, and Hungary, 2. The racial
complexion OF the Sacred College as Il
now stands is as follows: Italian. 40;
/ French, :; Spanish, 6: Austrian. 4; Ger
man. 8; Hungarian, 2: Irish. 2; Portu-
guese. 2: American. /: Belgian. l; Bo-
hemian. l.
This gives a total Of 50 against CO be-
fore the recent appointments were made.
The seven additional prelates are dis
tributed as follows: Italy. ?: Austria. 2;
Spain, Germany. and Portugal. each one.
The last important consistory was that
of 1901. when nine new cardinals were
created. II is interesting TO note thai
Germany. Austria. Hungary. Bohemia
and Belgium now have ten cardinals In
the Sacred College
The failure TO appoint an additional
cardinal from France Is noted as pos
sibie consequence OF the differences e1-
listing between the Catholic societies in
that country and the Vatican.

ROAD 100 YEARS OLD
NEAR ALEXANDRIA
Made by Hogsheads of Tobacco Being Rolled
Over 1t.

Washington owed it's northern bound
airy to the course which an OK road Of
olden times pursued from Georgetown
10 Dladensburg. Similarly our little
neighbor of Alexandria, fifty years be-
fore Washington was founded. owed its
northern boundary TO an old tobacco
road which ran from the west TO the
Hunting Creek tobacco warehouse on a
hill which stood near what is now the
junction OF Lee and Oronoco Streets.
This thoroughfare, probably the oldest
road In this section of the country. came
from Cameron Run Ford. now the Swing
ing Bridge, almost due southeast 20 the
ford OF Hooff's Run. to what is now the
head OF King Street; and then almost
due east, sinking into ravine at what is
now the crossing of Henry Street. also
a smaller ravine, at what is now Wash
ington Street, and then at what is now
Pitt Street. turning again almost due
southeast. reached the tobacco ware
house by skirting Oronoco Creek.
Primitive Construction.
Over this roadway. from 1880 to short
~ before Alexandria was laid out, there
came professions of tobacco rollers. a
mule or an OK being hitched between
sapiings to single hogsheed Of tobacco.
which thus rolled on its circumference
TO the warehouse. Tens OF thousands Of
pounds OF tobacco passed in this way
over this road
All that is now left of 1t is about
railway bridge at the head of King
Street. and this piece Of road IS prob
ably $50 years old. All its connections
have been changed into farming lands
or city streets. and IL alone remains.

New Fast Train.

To meet growing business the Peunsyi-
vania has decided 10 put on a new fast
train TO New York The train. which q
to be put into service June p. is a
counterpart of the Washington limited.
and it is to make the distance between
Philadelphia and New York in two
hours
The Washington limited. which arrives
at West Philadelphia at 1888 p. m. aud
leaves at 1 O'Clock. has become 4 "a
vorite with PhiladelDhians going 20 New
York. OF late, however. complaints have
come TO the passenger department that
the train was usually filed up By the
time it reached West Philadelphia. AID
passengers were unable TO secure proper
accommodations, especially in the dining
car.
To remedy this II was decided 10 put
on the new fast express train. having
a dining car attached. which will leave
Broad Street Few minutes ahead CT
the Washington limited. The sehedule
Of the new train has not yet been pre-
pared.

1t is very likely that the Georgetown
and BIadensburg Road. which made
Boundary Street, now Florida Avenue,
was in its first beginning a tobacco
rolling road between the Bladensburg
tobacco warehouse. on the eastern
branch, and the Georgetown tobacco
warehouse, at Rock Creek.
BIaddock's Roads.
1t was not until the coming of Brad
dock that other roads from Alexandria
were laid out. At that time the British
engineers, with ak and fire, widened
country pathways and made through
Fairfax county several roadways that
sufficed TO allow army baggage to be
carried in wagons. In this way half a
dozen Fairfax roads have come to be
called the Braddock Road.
These roads sufieed until the Revolu-
tionary war. and about that time what
is called the Old Georgetown Road, from
Alexandria to MasoDs Ferry. opposite
Georgetown. became a much. Travelled
thoroughfare. Later the turnpike was
laid out from the mountains TO the
head of Duke Street. and. about 1903.
the Long Bridge having been built. Four
Mile Run was bridged and the Alexan-
dria and Washington Turnpike estab-

approach to the Capital, Of the Old
Georgetown Road.
These roads existed, with their wagons
for burdens and their stage coaches for
travellers, until the advent of the rail-
roads. Later came the trolley, with
its electricity. and the new era Of the
roads on the south side OF the Potomac,
as well as on the north, is now at fits
opening.
