Since the extra half hour was added

Washington. that small army Of wage
earners has had even less opportunity
for seeing life. and its curiosity has, con-
sequently. Increased.
Every little item of interest on the
streets or In the cars excites the atten-
ton OF Government workers, and when
the long board driveway was laid IN,
front of the City Hall the activity on
the part Of clerks who had to pass the
building was unbounded.
Plans had been executed for some
kind Of work there. and some one had
carelessly neglected to mention just
what II was. As a result. as many new
tangled things have been planned by
passers-by as will distinguish the new
Union Station when II finally becomes
feature Of local buildings.

What do you suppose they are going
to do here?" some one asked in the car

that one of the numerous tunnels IN
connection with the new railroad was
to run right under the Hall Of Justice
and that extra precautions were there
forefore being taken to insure safety TO
the distinguished court above. II any
body wants a good excuse for digging
up or putting down. the new station
must take the blame.

afternoon guessers about the board
driveway have all been wrong, and Abra-

plaza nor hear the rumble OF passing
trains.
To Change the Benches.
The real reason for the excitement on
the part OF passing Government clerks
Is purely and simply due to the fact that
the illustrious judges who preside over
the courts have worn out the benches.
As a tribute TO their faithful services
both the judges and the benches-new
seats are 10 be installed, and when
courts convene for the next term the
courts will be rejuvenated.
Other Improvements viii, OF course, De
made. and for the benefit of those who
have left their morning paper TO gaze
and wonder. IL can truly be said that
the changes warrant even the laying OF
a board driveway.
