Trolley rides are the favorite pas
time for summer evenings, and to SEE
the trolly car rush by you, filled
mainly with women and children, is
like watching beautiful panorama
First the rumble of the cars, then the
flash of the colored lights, the fiutter-
ing of bright ribbons and the gauzy
many hued gowns Of the women.
You catch a glimpse of waving hair
(for hats are seldom seen on women
after five o'clock CLEAN of white
Threats and smiling faces, and the
vision of beauty is passed.
But it is the parks in the midst OF
the city, the many little triangles and
circles, that make Washington a
delightful place in which to spend the
summer; in fact, at all times OF the
year are these little reservations and
city parks delight.
In them Washingtonians have
more opportunity to study nature
than do the denizens of the country
itself. You see signs of the coming
OF spring in the parks long before
they can be found in the suburbs, ion
there are no dead remnants Of last
years vegetation to clear a way.
While spring is afar off the flowers IL
the parks respond to the warmth OF
her approach; and when she is here,
she notes this response, and seems to
nourish them with her caress.
She brings such wealth and
variety of bloom, SO that if one keep
their eyes open here in the very heart
OF the city they can learn many
strange things of many strange plants
that they would have to travel far and
wide to find on their native soil.
The officials of the Botanical
Gardens sees to this, but we who love
the flowers like to believe that nature
has put them there for the glory OF
the city Beautiful. The shrubs and
plants are SO arranged that you car
go day by day and see some new
flower in bloom or beginning to bud
Long before a snow-drop is to be
found in the country around here
you can find them in the parks
Then when you go again you see the
crocuses scattered over the lawn, and
almost in a night the buds of hya
cinths are all in bloom, filling the
air with their sweet perfume.
One day you go, and behold, ii
seems as though Flora had dropped
her pots and pans of brilliant colors
and low they glow as tulips.

what a glorious riot of scarlet and rec
and orange; and such puppies nee

along the Atlantic coast we frequently
read of the many sunstrokes and heat
strokes in the large cities, but such
catastrophies seldom occur here,
These wide, tree lined streets and
wonderful system of parks prevent
this, by softening the direct rays OF
the sun.
In front ofevery house there is a
little strip of green parking, the we'll
kept sidewalk with it's border OF trees.
On many of the streets and avenues
there is double row of trees on each
side of the street. One row on the
edge of the parking in front OF the
house, the other on the curb, forming
perfect bower across the sidewalk.
Those on the curb often arching over
the roadway and meeting in the
centre, form. miles of shade for man
and beast.
One does all of their shopping and
as much of their business as possible
in the cool of the morning for the
afternoons are hot and the streets, as
far as possible, deserted, but unlike
most of the large cities along the
Atlantic coast the evenings here are
delightful. Now by evening the
sOutherner does not mean after dark.
He is apt to divide the day according
to the story Of the creation, "The
morning and the evening were the
first day" After dark is night.

They huddle together, wrapped up in

call it "pleasure."
After dinner, which is usually from
five to six in summer, those Of the
"stay-at-homes" in Washington, who
do not go to the parks to hear the
music or read their papers, bring out
their easy chairs on their own little
parking and settle down to solid
comfort after their days work. The
women folk come out dressed in their
pretty thin organdies or lawns, and
the little children in their dainty
dresses run and play on the broad
sidewalks and clean streets. Many
of the houses are over run with vines,
for vines are a vogue here, and vine
clad houses and vine-veiled porches
are to be seen on nearly every street.

Summer Evenings in Washington
By Martha L. Schneider. Washington. d. G.

Pierre Charles L'Enfant, the famous
Frenchman who planned and laid out
the city of Washington, who never
received cent of payment for his
work, lies buried on an abandoned
farm outside of the city limits without
monument or shaft to mark his resting
place. Efforts have been made to
induce Congress to right this wrong
but so far they have proven unsuccess-
full. The answer has been given time
and time again to those who have
sought to have his remains inferred at
Arlington and fitting monument
erected over them-that the city of
Washington is his monument.
WashingtOnians are proud OF their
city, but they love the parks he
scattered so profusely over the city.
When it was finally decided that the
national capital should be located on
the banks of the Potomac, it was to
Major L'Enfant who had remOdeled
and rebuilt the city hall OF New York
for the use Of the first Continental
Con gress and still later the Federal
House of Philadelphia, that Washing
ton turned for the plans of the great
and grand city he had in view, and
the talented Frencnman proved worthy
OF this honor. Later, 1t IS said,
Jefferson recommended the Of plan
Philadelphia, which was laid out in
squares like q chess-bOard. While
LFnfant did not entirely ignore this
suggestion, he relieved the mOnotony
Of this feature by introducing occa-
siOnal curves and angles.
Choosing Capital Hill as centre,
he first laid down streets parallel to it,
running east and west, designated by
the letters of the alphabet, and another
set of streets running north and south
are intersecting the lettered streets at
right angles, which were designated
by numerals. Rediating from the
Capital. he laid out magnificent
avenues, cutting the checKero Oard at
every variety of angles, and creating
those squares, circles, triangles and
paralellograms, which with their long
avenues of trees render Washington
the most picturesque city on the con-
tinent.
Those who consider Washington a
southern city unbearable on account
of the extreme heat in Summer, are
little aware of the many advantages
that it possesses for the enjoyment OF
summer pleasures and pastimes, and
often wonder how those who have to
remain here all summer, endure the
heat. When the heat is excessive

Expenses of the Smallpox

A matter of interest to the people
of Rockbridge was the prosecution
before the Board of Supervisors
at their meeting Monday Of ac-
counts occasioned by the presence
of smallpox in the county. For
services of vurious sorts, such as
guards, vaccination, medical at.
tention and supplies, the total
expenses of looking after the ia
cases reported sipce the first case
in December, amounted to some
thing over 5000, The largest item
in the account was for professional
services rendered by DR.. A. D.
Estlll, health off GER for the county,
amounting to $1,226.25. The ac'
counts were ordered to be paid.
There was some difference of
opinion in the board as to allowing
the accounts, as the expenses OF
looking after the disease in the
county seemed unduly large. The
manner of treatment Of the disease
was entirely in the hands OF the
County Board of Health, composed
of Drs. A. D. Estill, Robert Glas-
gov, H. l.. Coleman, Mess~s. K. l..
Patterson, Chairman of the Board
Supervisors, and A. L. Shields,
clerk. At the January meeting OF
the Board of Supervisors the
County Board of Health was au-
thorized to take such steps as they
deemed expedient in stamping
out the disease, and to do 30 as
economically ne possaible.

Escaped Prisoners CaughtiNear
Buena Vista

nucud iStd
John H. Mazingo, S. G. Van
landingham, Jack Lam and Wade
Garduer, the four prisoners who
escaped Tuesday night of last
week from the Lexington Jail,
were caught early Friday morning
in the mountains near Buena
Vista, not far from the home of
vanlandingham. Sheriff Sterrett
was assisted In their capture by
Policeman j. w. Walker and Mr..
John T. l.. Preston of Lexington,
and Policeman Mathew Beard OF
Buena Vista.
Suspecting that the fugitives
would go to the home of Van
landingham, Mr.. Sterrett gained
information that the men were
seen in that vicinity, and with the
aid of the assistants mentioned,
he proceeded to search the noun
tains Thursday night. After look
ing in several houses without
results, an old shed used by lum-
bermen was remembered, and the
party at once proceeded to inves-
tigate the same. On approaching
the place the four men were dis
covered lying on the ground around
fire, all wrapt in slumber. 1t
was then about 5 o'clock Friday
morning, and the night was in
tensely dark, with a drizzling
rain falling. The sleepers were
greatly surprised when they were
awakened and in the light OF a
lantern and indistinct chickering's
of a wood fire realized that they
were again prisoners. They made
no resistance, however, but quietly
accompanied their captors.
Mazingo was brought on horse
back to Lexington by Mr.. Walker,
and the other three accompanied
Mr.. Sterrett and Mr.. Preston on
the train. They are now in jail.
