HARD TIMES.

An editorial comment on hard
times says: 1T is estimated that
$500, 900 went from the vicinity of
Clarion to northern land invest
ments during the last two years
As a consequence, she riff sales are
b. coming an ordinary occurrence IN
the neighborhood." 1t is the opin-
ion Of the writer that hard times in
Iowa usually come from speculation
much more frequently than from
crop failure. During the years 1901,
1902 ana 1903 untold millions OF
money wrested from the soil OF
Iowa were taken to Oklahoma, Kan
sas, Nebraska, Idaho, the Dakotas
and Canada for investment. Many
people put their entire surplus into
a first payment on big section OF
raw prairie land, expecting to sell
again within the year at enormous
profits. Now they are called on to
make a second payment.
The partial crop failure in Iowa
in 1908 could have easily been met
had it not been for this extra drain.
AS consequence Iowa people not
only lose their investments in other
places, but many are compelled to
surrender what would have been
a good competence in Iowa had it
been rightly used. If Iowa people
had used their surplus earnings for
the last five years in improving
Iowa and local conditions, the imag-
ination pictures to us life in Iowa
would have been very pleasant.
The farmers would nave telephone
in every house many OF them would
have their land all paid for. Iowa
would now nave no good roads
question, for in the last two years
the bridges would have all been re-
built in iron and the roads graded
and graveled, and many Of the farm
ers would be Swimming along in
their automobiles. The agitation
over the tax ferret question would
cause not a ripple of comment, for
every one would be even with the
world and ready to help a deserving
neighbour What do you say boys,
let's knuckle to and saw wood for
five years more, let investment
sharks alone and see what garden
of Eden we can make out OF this
good old Iowa SOIL Marcus, la.

ANACosTIA NOTES.
Work of Improvement Going on at St
Elizabeth's.

The work of removing the pathological
laboratory at the Government Hospital for
the Insane from it's former site to a point
80 feet across the roadway, where touh-
dalton has been built to receive 1t, Is now
under way. The building is about 43A4o
feet, built in a substantial manner of brick,
and has been in for a number of years
Recently it was determined to remove 1t to
a more fitting location, and also to make an
addition and the contract was awarded 10
MesSrS. Sears & Rogers.
Before starting the structure on its jour
ney it became necessary to shift the build
ing and then completely turn 1t around, the
former being necessary by the fact that
number of shade trees interfered with the
progress and the latter because the build
ing will rest in new position when set on
the foundation. 1t is expected that the
building will be safely located on the foun-
dation within the next day or two
There is general fireprooting work going
on throughout the institution. Where nre
escapes are necessary the standard escape
of the District is being erected Ffreproot-
ing is being done in the relief building and
laundry, and will be extended to the west
lodge Atkins Hall and the east end of the
old buildings. There is being constructed
near the head of the asylum steam car
tracks adjacent to the new power station
house to be used shelter for the new
locomotive.
Engineer James Berran has large force
of employees al work daily in grading the
grounds around the new buildings and In
arranging the system of roadways. A de-
lay arose on account of inability to secure
material but six carloads of stone nave
been just received and the work is proceed
ing rapidly.
The Potomac electric light station adjoin-
ing the premises of Mr.. j. w. Garrison,
near Nichols avenue and Messer street, is,
in connection with the Improvements in
augurated by Mr. Garrison being removed
to a brick addition constructed in the rear.
The wires are to be reintroduced into the
building underground. The frame building
that has been used as waiting station by
street car patrons at the same point for the
past several years is also being removed to
the rear, as Mr.. Garrison intends to erect
on the site frame residence.
Henry Carroll, a colored citizen, was
seized with fit while watching a game of
base ball yesterday afternoon on field
near his house. He was removed to his
residence at Minnesota avenue and Harri-
son street, where he received medical at
tention.
A lawn social under the auspices of the
Emmanuel Episcopal Church, at Anacostia
and the Esther Memorial Chapel, at Con-
gress Heights, was held in the park at the

New York City, July Is, 1861.
Mr.. John X. VIM
My Dear Sir: 1 found my niece Miss
Raynor, In state bordering on proStra-
tion-total colfapse-this+ afternoon, and if
write to you frankly-even, as it may
seem, unklndly l beg you to consider the
feelings of one who looks upon that dear
enid almost In the a3iSht of an only daugh-
ter.
You are possibly unaware of the fact
that her beloved father sustained a serious
stroke nearly five WEEKS ago-that his con-
dition has been critical and that my niece
has suffered much m health and strength
through her devotiofft to him. the hours of
nursing, the days and nights of anxiety.
But your friend, Mr.: Ingraham, knew all
this and more-knew of other matters that
gave her sore distress of mind and that
were surely preying Sn her health. We
now. for the first time; are able to find ex-
PLANTATION of this fact, that he has written
letters to her which, though l have not
been permitted to feaR Them know have
caused her great distrsss. and which We're
understandable as coming from him to the
only daughter of his bffst friend and bene-
the malady to which YOU refer had already
told upon his facultfss,i and that these i'm
Fortunate letters touher were the offspring
of "a diSordered BRAIN
"One cannot but sorrow that young
man so gifted should be so sOrely stricken.
but feel it due to myself, to my niece and
to others of our family circle. to say that
we are In possession of information proving
that, even while enjoying the confidence
and bounty of my beloved brother, he had
involved himself with persons of question
able character in an affair that doubtless
had much to do with the shock that pros
trated Mr.. Raynor, and that has at last
revealed Mr.. Ingraham to. us In the true
light. Under these circumstances. an ap-
peal to us In his behalf is most inopportune.
Even had there been. as you seem to frn-
agine. anything resembling an engagement.
or even an understanding. between my
niece and your unfortunate friend. You
must appreciate that 1t would be impossi-
bic for her TO leave her sick fathers side.
But. as matters stand, while we deplore
the situation, ii is not one in which my
niece can be allowed to appear. and tn her
