HORNETS GET BUSY.
Their Sudden Activity Put an End to
Women's Meeting.

The Dexter Literary and Psychic Re-
search Society of Germantown, Pa. held
the shortest and at the same time the live
lest meeting In its history Friday night.
The subject under discussion was natu-
raj history. and the members had been re-
quested to bring various specimens with
them to illustrate whatever information
they might care to dispense for the benefit
of their fellow-mortals.
Mrs. Harriet Stannard arrived late, but
bearing triumphantly huge hornets nest,
which she said her little brother Willie
had found in Fishers woods while a-nut-
ting. In response to ordinations of alarm
from several of the more timid women
present she assured every one that the
nest had been abandoned by the hornets
that had made 1t, and that IL was per
fectly harmless"
Mrs. Stannard placed the nest on a win
dow sill over steam radiator while she
removed her hat and coat. Contact with
the heat caused the bees to get busy, and
soon a hornet alighted upon a speakers
face and created such an Impression
upon her that she fled. screaming, from the
platform. An instant later a swarm of
hornets poured out of the abandoned
nest and the meeting adjourned without
formality

Fair progress is reported in the con-
struction of the slow sand filtration plant
near the Soldiers Home. The amount ex-
pended on that work during the year was
1896 664, leaving a balance available July
/ last of S. 2S9,21O, of which ST. ,939
was covered by uncompleted contracts.
1t Is estimated that 100000 will be re-
ouired for the maintenance and opera
ton of the filtration plant during the
next fiscal year, and that $565.2I2 will be
required to complete the existing project

and $500 for rebuilding sea wall on the
Potomac ricer front between the arsenal
wall and n street south.
Regarding the improvements in prog
ress at the Washington barracks reserva-
ton, Gen. Mackenzie says the present
limit of cost of the Army War College.
100000, will be sufficient, though none
too large. Unexpected foundation diff
culties were encountered in the buildings
for the Engineer School. The working
season OF 1915, zen. h1dCkenZle says, was
very disastrous so far as market prices
of labor and material were concerned. and
1t was also found impossible to utilize
the old buildings to the extent figured
on in the original project. Nevertheless.
the work has been kept as nearly within
the limits of that project as possible, al
though it appears that the space esti-
mated on as sufficient for the needs of
the engineer school and post is not now
sufficient. A general plan has been de-
veloped. however, sufficient to meet the
needs of the post and school, when finish
ed with economy and with adequate ar
chitectural treatment. The plan cannot
be entirely completed with the funds
available, says Gen. Mackenzie but all
new work is being made to conform to 1t
as that gives as great a return as any
other disposition of the funds. With what
can be completed for the amount of the
appropriation, $S60000, says Gen. Mac
kenzie, at least as much space will be
provided as was originally estimated on
He says that by retaining for time some
of the old buildings present needs can be
met, though somewhat inadequateiy; but
that thorough economy would be best
subserved by completing the entire plan
now
The amount expended during the past
year for the construction of the highway
bridge across the Potomac was S1S233
leaving an unexpended balance July l
last of S96S. 235. of which amount 5000 900
is covered by uncompleted contract Gen
Mackenzie estimates that the existing
project can be completed for 5000 900 and
he says that that amount can be profit
ably expended during the next fiscal yo IT.
