Washington Will Have Highway of
 Lindens.

" dSulnS E lbn fOSl.
 Five hundred American linden trees will be planted this fall on Massa- chusetts Avenue extended. These will be set out in double rows after the manner of those already of big growth on the older part of the avenue, and when this planting Is completed Wash ington will be in possession probably of the longest street in the world adorn- ed by this graceful tree of dark-grecn foliage. When the extension is fn- ished Massachusetts Avenue will reach from the almshouse, in the extreme southeast district, to Thirty second Street northwest al point just above the Naval Observatory on the Tennally- town road
 The planting of the avenue with trees of one variety is in pursuance of a plan of many years standing adopted by the parking commission. The work is under the direction of MT. Trueman Lanham. who. for twenty years has ing in Washington. These young lin- dens at present are waving their slender branches in the largest of the two nurseries of the District. the one on Brightwood Avenue.
 The lindens were grown from seed gathered four years ago from the trees on Twelfth Street bordering the grounds Of the National Museum. At first these were planted in a tract of plowcd ground called the seed bed This is the regular procedure of rais- ing trees. The seed is sown thickly in these beds. and the trees are allow cd one years growth there. Al this stage of their existence they resemble a great mass Of shrubhery, being so close together that one can discern only the foliage. After one years growth. the seedlings are taken sepa- rately and put into nursery rows at sufficient distance apart to allow each Its proper epansion. These nursery rows of trees of one years growth pre- sent an attractive sight. The trunks are very slender. the outlines those of full grown specimen in miniature.
 The trees to be set out on Massa- chuSetts Avenue are now from twelve to fourteen feet high. but they will be cut down before they are transplanted In order that the transplantation may give them harder development.

Pennsylyania's Political Purity.

Elmira (N. Y.) Gazette.
 "A very respectable citizen of Elmi- ra, who was working temporarily in Philadelphia, relates that he thought he would find out what their election laws were worth down there. He had not lived in Philadelphia long enough to vote. Nevertheless. he secured an en- gagement to ride about the city and vote al as many polling places a good cab horse could reach in the day A list of names under which he was to vote was supplied him, Eis compen- sation was to be $10. But he did not do the voting. despite his solemn com pact and the fact that the voting was perfectly safe. That is the system which the Republican party protects in Philadelphia by failing to provide legis lation to check il. The result Is that Philadelphia has q phenomenaI propor- tion of voters to population"

Although its attention has more than once been called to It's unfairness, The Birmingham Age-Herald still carries near the top of its editorial column the words. The only daily newspaper in Alabama" In it's issue a day or two ago 1t had immediately under the above words these lines from Shakespeare:
 I see my reputation is at stake;
 My fame is shrewdly gor'd.
 No doubt the singular appropriate ness of these lines failed to be noted by our contemporary. else 1t would not have allowed them to appear in juxta- position. It knows that its claim Is without foundation and that there can be no defence for persisting In it, but if 1t really feels that Its fame hasn't been "gor'd" sufficiently let 1t keep up its baseless claim.

FOR BETTER MAIL SERVICE.
Plans for a Mail Car Between Spring.
field and White River Junction.

A strong effort is being made
throughout the state for an improve
ment in the railway mail service be-
tween Springfield Mass, and. st. Al
bans, and Il seems likely that the In
terest which is being aroused VIII re-
suit in n petition to the second assls-
tant postmaster general for mail
car on the trains which leave SPRING
field at 1850 p. m. and reach st. AL
bans at s p. M, and returning leave
st. Adams at IL a. m. and reach
Springfield at $40 p. m. These trains
pass through Brattleboro going
north at 1927 and going south at
4:36 every afternoon except Sunday.
At present the train ON its northern
trip carries over so closed pouches
and twice as many sacks for dlstrlpu-
ton by the baggage-master along the
route.
The addition of mail cars on these
trains would be a great advantage TO
Brattleboro's mail service. AT pres
ent the only mail from the south on
the 2:27 car is that which is pouched
below or at Springfield and at Green
field If a mail car were added mall
from all points between Springfield
and Brattleboro would be received a
still greater benefit would come from
being able to send mail north on this
train, as at present there is nothing
on II but a closed pouch for Bellows
Falls. With a mail ear attached, let
tiers for Boston could leave mere at
2:27 and catch the flyer from Bellows
Falls, reaching Boston early in the
evening. The scheme would also be
of great advantage to the service
throughout Vermont and Northern
New Hampshire, as under the present
conditions no mail north OF
White River Junction leaves Brat
tIeboro between II a. m. ana
1910 p. m. With regular SER
vice on the south bound train
which passes through here ut 4;36
mail could be sent to all interme-
date points between here and Spring
field whereas at present there are
nothing but closed pouches for
Springfield and Greenfield.
An effort is being made to have
this increased service added on the
line between st. Adams and Boston
via White River Junction and Con-
cord ~ H, but a car between
Springfield. Mass, and st. Adams
would serve many more people and be
in every way more desirable espec-
tally for the towns between SPRING
field and White River Junction. Dur
ing the summer train schedule the
mail car would go north on the White
Mountain train as far as White River
Junction, and in this way mail SER
vice between New York and the [
White mountain region would be I
made much better. The plan is one
which ought to interest all local
business men and it is hoped that as
many as possible will lend their in
luence toward its contamination.

with the Keene High school team to-
morrow afternoon at Keene.
Louis Allen returned Saturday af-
ter a two weeks trial with the Con-

third base but a regular man of last
years team was finally assigned that
position.
The first baseball game on the
island this season will take place to-
morrow afternoon at $50 between a
nine representing Company | and the
team which is to represent Hinsdale,
N. H.. in the Cheshire county league,
The lineup Of the local team will
probably be as follows: Clune, pitch
err; Waite, catcher; Allen, lib; March,

r. f.; Stevens, c. f.; Tarbell, r. I.
Although nothing definite has &C.
Cured in the local baseball situation
this week it is now practically GER
tain that there will be no local league.
The difficulty about leasing the island
for the entire season makes 1t i'm
possible to arrange a definite schedule
of games and the majority of the bet
ter local ball players seem unwilling
to play in a league. Company | al
ready has team in the field but
many of its players have signed with
the Independents.
