enough, the fellow had some bags. =
carry away the robins, and couple O.
torches. Two or three other similarly
laden conveyanees were following us.
We got out in a little dip In the land
and the torches were lighted. And there
on the bushes were hundreds Of robins
which had Just migrated from the north
and We're resting In the warm shelter ot
the dip in the land. These Of them that
were awakened by the glare Of the
torches blinked sleepily and chirred i'm
patiently at the interruption of their
nap.
The whole party fell to and actually
picked them off the bushes with their
hands and filled their bags as fast as
they could. Talk about getting a bag II

DEVELOPING FINE LEGS.
People of Town Built on Hillside
Have TO Do a Great Deal
of Climbing.

II was one Of the merits OF the feudal
system that it developed the legs of
princes and people alike. The baron al
ways set his castle on the summit OF a
hill, so that the capture by an enemy
would be difficult task, says Harper's
Magazine. His ENTHUSIASTICALLY so
called for the reason that he never al
lowed them to retain anything Of value
built their huts on the slope Of hill
outside of the castle walls, where they
could hope for the protection Of their
lord. The medieval town was therefore
town that slanted more or less abrupt
ly, and its inhabitants were continually
going up or down hill, to the great de-
yelopment of their calves. We some
times wonder how knights and men-at-
arms in the feudal period could have
borne the weight of their arnor. II was
manifestly because of their constant
practice of climbing their hillside streets
and thus developing and hardening their
muscles
These reflections inevitably occur TO
the visitor TO Subiaco. The town is built
on the sides of steep hill that rises
abruptly from the middle of the valley.
The hill is crowned by the usual castle.
Many of the streets are simply stair
ways, and most Of the others are as steep
as coal chutes Walk anywhere in Su-
biaeo and you see above you the conun-
lal passing of legs Of all sorts and con-
ditions 1t Is nearly as HARD to descend
the streets as it is to climb them. You
need not wonder that the typical Subia-
can leg is finely developed, and much af- |
iected by artists desiring model legs for
Samson.

EXCAVATIONS BEGUN
WORK ON FOUNDATION OF SEM
ATE OFFICE BUILDING.

The excavation for the foundation of the
Senate Office building on the site bounded
by Delaware avenue, 1st, and C. streets
northeast. has been begun and the sixty
thousand or seventy thousand cubic yards
OF earth will be transferred to fill In at
the union station plaza within the next
SIX weeks. The first wagon load of dirt
was taken Off the square at $50 o'clock
Saturday afternoon and eight wagons are
now at work carrying away what is dug up
py the big steam shovel at the corner of
Delaware avenue and street
AT present the earth Is being used to
build up the foundation for a trestle along
DeiaWare avenue. upon which will be con-
structed dinkie' railroad to transfer
the earth to the plaza Site AS 1t is the
purpose OF the construction of the union
station improvements to make one level of
the ground between street. northeast and
the union station. The earth that ia used
for the trestle will not have to be taken
away later, but will remain as a part of the
fill at this point.
1t Is the hope of the superintendent of
the Capitol, Mr.. Elliott Woods, to push
the excavations on the Senate site and also
the work on the foundation itself so that
In year the Senate office building and the
corresponding building on the south for the
house OF Representatives may go up to-
gether. In all probability If this plan is
not interfered with. both of these i'm
mense structures will reach completion and
be ready for occupancy about the same
time. In spite of the fact that the con-
structors Of the House building got started
first.
The contract for the excavation on the
Senate site was awarded by Mr.. Woods to
Charles McDermott. who has established
his headquarters at the corner Of Della
ware avenue and D street northeast EVERY
effort is being made by Mr. McDermott to
perform the work in the specified time. and
he Is confident of so doing.
