Rus in Urbe.

w dSuiuSIOu LIDS always DeeQ KNOWN
as the City Of Magnificent Distances,
and it will continue so to be called.
although the sting Of that witticism
OF Irving has long passed away. The
distances are not only here to stay,
but, in some aspects of the situation,
they are growing. The city Will al
ways have some of the characteristics
OF the country within its limits, and
this is one Of its greatest charms.
The fathers Of men now living went
ducking along the marsh that former
ly cut the line Of Pennsylvania ave-
nue.; within the memory of the pres
ent generation the placid waters of
the classic Tiber have been put uader-
ground; the James Creek Canal still
has one putrid leg not yet buried: and
Lore Washingtonians than are will
Ing to admit the impeachment recall
the days when the commons" within
the city limits were dotted with COWS.
goats. and other grazing animals,
which wandered homeward along the
grass-grown streets as the shades of
night began to fall.
Today these conditions are only
found in the suburbs. and blessed is
the man who, after hard day's
work, can sit out in the open and
watch the boys Of the neighborhood
in friendly game of ball. Far
across the grass-grown lots the cow
bell tink1es as bossy shakes her head
TO drive away the flies; yonder an old
cart horse, just relieved from the
work of the day, rolls upon the soft
earth to take the kinks out Of his
spine, or crops the short grass as
sweet change from the musty feed of
his ramshackle stall. To the right is
barn, in the loft of which flocks of
pigeons find a home, while its yard is
populous with ducks, geese, and chick
ems. 1t is there that the chanticIeer
chants his mathis; 1t is there the
pigeons COO their vesper song of love:
1t is there the politicians Of the feath-
cred tribe. the ducks and geese, quael
and screech their senseless orations
all day long, pausing only to wallow
in the muddy pond the slime of which
yields them nourishment.
True, open parks and the pleasant
sight Of playing children may still be
found in the city, but the suburbanfte
likes to hear the low Of COWS, the bark
Of the true watchdog, the brave chal-
lenge OF the cock, the futter and coo
of the amorous pigeon, the senseless
gable Of the ducks. and the delight
ed whinny Of the hor8e turned loose
to Craze. AS the suburbs build up all
these things will be pushed farther
and farther away from the heart OF
the city, and families and families
will follow them.
The suburbanite, even II he cannot
own these animals himself, has In his
makeup a kindly feeling for them
and a desire for their neighborhood.
They are a part of the charm Of the
country, and only the suburbanite can
really have the country IN the city.

"Pretty Peggy" a Success.
Takoma Park. D. c.

John Queen Slye, of Washington, has
made an interesting contribution TO the
ragtime compositions of the year. His
latest output is Pretty Peggy a genu-
inc ragttne effuSion. The composition
has a fine swing to it, and is written
in the most pronounced and infectious
syncopated time
Pretty Peggy bids fair to become
one of the genuinely popular band num-
bers of the summer and will be used by
Washington bands as well as those at

Motherhood.

oh, bliss inefable, oh, peace untold
What matters now the long, long night of fears,
Since again the sunlight behold,
And happiness has wiped away my tears?
Since at the dawning of this perfect day.
Our frst-born child upon my bosom lay?
the valley of deaths shadow grim,
1 the King of Terrors face to face
And wrestled long and nightly with him,
All single-handed, in that awful place;
TILL as day broke the victors l won;-
My life and thine, my precious little son.
Look Dearest, at this crumpled rose-leaf palm,
And mark that gaze of quaint solemnity
Ah his eyeds droop in slumber calm.
l wonder what his coming days will be?
My thoughts speed onward, down the slope years
And paint his future with hopes and fears
Now, let the busy world go rushing by;
Our treasures all in this little nest;
And here sweetest hopes and pleasures lie;
Homes kingdom is Of all earth the best
Here you king the queen and prince we;
blest and happy royal family.

THE COAST DEFENSE PROBLEM.
Joint Naval and Military Board Will
Soon Be Ready to Submit Report.

SOOH DC nCd0J ~ S0bIi1 Poi =.
Washington. D. c., Nov. 21-The
joint naval and military board called
to consider the so-called Endicott
plan of coast defense, has been hold
ing several sessions lately and will
be ready soon to submit it's report to
the President. The work has been
divided into sections in charge of
subcommittee, which are making
their Investigations and preparing
their reports, which documents will
be incorporated in the complete re-
port of the committee of which Sec
retary Taft is the nominal head. 1t
is proposed to have the report ready
to submit to congress at the coming
session. 1t looks as if it would be pos
sible to reduce the original estimates
by several million dollars and still
achieve the same results of defence
against an enemy from the sea as
was contemplated by the Endicott
Board of twenty years or more ago.
The principal subject recently un-
der discussion was that in relation to
the submarise in its Office as part
of the coast defence.

Of the Roswell National Bank against

Reed and H. 7. Paterson, as agents
for the government were made party
defendants He sustained the plain
tiff's demurrer to answer of Reed and
Paterson, in which they set up that,
as agents of the Government they
could not be sued. 1t was shown that
a Colorado judge in Colorado had de
cided that agents of the government
could not be sued, but Judge Pope
gave a new ruling to the contrary,
placing a new construction on the
Contract Act that is a point in law of
unusual interest.
