Mr.. Dryden is distinguished look
ing gentleman and seems to fit in his
surroundings in the senate chamber.
He is tall and slender, faultlessly
dressed and of dignified, courteous de-
meanor. He stepped at one bound from
private life into the highest legislative
body in the world. He can make
good speech, his language is we'll cho-
sen, pure and direct. In speaking of
his election to the senate y few days
ago, he reiterated a statement he made
at the time, that he did not owe his
political preferment to his wealth, al
though he is one of the wealthiest men

Mr.. Dryden holds a diploma from
Yale college, but he never graduated
there. He prepared himself for the
college course by teaching and studied
at Yale for two years, but was COM
PEELED to leave in his junior year. Long
afterwards, when he was well up in
the fifties, the faculty at Yale restored
his name to the rolls, just as though
he had finished his senior year, and
conferred upon him the degree of mas
ter of arts.

while others have been almost obliter-
ated. 1t is proposed to mark them in
some way, so that the visitor to Wash
ington and the student of civil war his
tory may be able to trace this line of
earthworks that were thrown up in
defense of the capital during the civil
war.
A drive around the line of old fortf-
fications forms one of the most impress
sive features Of the city. They extend
in a continuous circle of forts and
earthworks, 81 miles in circumference,
from Alexandria on the Virginia side
of the Potomac to Fort Greble nearly
opposite that city on the Maryland
banks. The necessity for these FORTH
cations was seen early in the war. The
first erected were on the Virginia side,
running from Alexandria up to Airing
ton Heights and the Potomac. Then
they were extended on around the city
as the confederate forces at various
times threatened the capture OF the ma
tional capital. They were effective In
repulsing the dashes made by Early,
Mosby and others. In the country
round about, in both Maryland and
Virginia, stories are still told of Mos
by. that daring Virginia cavalryman,
and his dashes toward the capital.
There is no doubt but that at many
times during the war Mosby's men
were often in sight of the dome of the
capitol. 1t might be mentioned that
Col. Mosby is now trusted and useful
special agent Of the interior depart
ment. good republican and great
admirer of Roosevelt.

Fruit and truck growing, which is
indirectly one of the objects of the in
stitution and one of the chief requis-
ties of the site to be selected, was put
before the visitors in such a manner
as we think convinced them that there
was nothing more to be desired along
these lines. Personal experiences by
men whose utterances could not be
question as regards people who have
visited this climate for health, always
prolonging life and in most instances
affecting permanent cures, were cited
In an informal manner and the Santa
Fe people could but feel that the
distinguished gentlemen Of the COM
mittee went away without question
at least of the perfect healthfulness
Of Santa Fe.
Those present could not fail to real
lie the magnitude of the proposed un-
dertaking and the consequent respon-
sibility resting on the shoulders of the
committee investigating the site, and
even If Santa Fe does not secure the
location the Santa Fe citizens who re-
ceived the st. Louis men feel that the
earnestness of that committee will in
sure to the people they represent and
the people needing their help the
most careful and discriminate judg-
ment. As for ourselves we know that
We have the goods and feel assured
that there can be only one location and
that Is Santa Fe.

The entire party then assembled at
the Elks' Hall for the meeting which
has just been described. After the
meeting the visitors were taken to the
Palace Hotel for dinner, after which
the entire committee with their friends
were given reception by ex-Govern-
or and Mrs. Prince, and were finely en-
tertained. Mrs. Prince made an i'm.
pressive appeal of over an hours du-
ration in the interests of Santa Fe,
after which carriages conveyed the
party to it's special car and the mem
bers left the city at $3.50 o'clock ac-
companied by Ex-Governor Prince.

of Hon. L. B. Prince, H. S. Kaune,
Frank Owen. w. NJ Townsend, C. F.
Easley, Fritz Muller, S. B. Grimshaw.
l. Sparks and A. P Harrington, lost no
opportunity to make the visiting CON-
mittee acquainted with every citizen
they could in the short time allotted,
and worked hard during the entire day
to make the visit as pleasant as pos
sible Also large number of the
citizens gathered at the Palace Hotel
and were introduced to the visitors.
Through the kindness of Adjutant
General Harrington, the band was Sc
cured, and while the visitors were at
dinner they were entertained by
music. This was highly appreciated
by the visiting committee and was
spoken of in terms of praise.
The visiting committee having only
one day in Santa Fe could not accept
the offer of the Santa Fe Central for
a special trip over it's line, but the
promised to avail themselves
Of the kind offer from Hon. W. H. An

and w. s. Hopewell, second vice presi
dent, as transmitted to them by S. B.

Central, this summer.
The members of the Santa Fe COM
mittee and the merchants, profession-
al men and citizens generally used
every possible effort to give the st.
Louis committee the kindest attention
and only absolute facts relative to
climatic and other conditions were
presented. Perfect harmony prevailed
and NOT ONE WORD WAS SAID IN
OPPOSITION TO ANY OTHER CITY
