ARMS & DRURY.
Real Estate Firms Record in Business
World

The real estate firm of Arms & Drury
was founded in 1870 by Mr. John Taylor
Arms. one of the three living real estate
pioneers who have greatly aided in the de-
velopment of greater and more beautiful
Washington. During the thirty-five years
large volume of business has passed
through the office. When MIR. Arms first
decided to enter the real estate business in
the capital city he took in all the sites that
he believed would be good locations, and
after final deliberations he decided that the
offices at Sic + street northwest would be
as convenient for the real estate business
as any that could be found anywhere in
the city Accordingly he located at the ad-
dress given and during the past thirty-five
years he has labored in the same Offices
that he started out in.
In 1871 during President Grants admin
istfation, Mr.. Arms came to Washington
and took the civil service examination. He
ment under the new law, and early after
he had taken the examination was appoint
ed to a position in the Treasury Depart
ment. After about one year in the depart
ment Mr. Arms decided that he needed
newer and wider fields of usefulness, and
embarked in the real estate business, where
he has been ever since.
Mr. Samuel A. Drury. the junior member
of the firm, was born in Washington forty
two years ago. He is a son of the late
William p. and Mary e. Drury.
Mr. Drury received his education at Rock
Hill College, Bllicott City, Md. Coming to
this city Immediately after he had conclud-
ed his studies at the college, he took up
the study of law in the office of William
F. Mattingly, and in 1856 he decided to
abandon the study of Blackstone when Of
fered position in the office of Mr.. Arms.

EARLY Completion of Warships.

At the present rate of progress in naval
construction it will not be many months
before most of the vessels under way will
be ready for sea service. OF the thirteen
battleshps now under construction six will
be ready for service by next July, and an
other will be finished two three months
later BY that time Also four OF the six
armored cruisers will be finished, as will
the three protected cruisers. two training
ships and two torpedo boats, and inside of
a year the four submarines building at
Quincy, Mass, will be ready for acceptance
by the government. That will leave under
cons truction, toward the end of 1906 only
six battleships, two armored cruisers and
three scouts, together with the two battle
ships authorized at the last session, two
Golfers, and whatever may be provided in
the way of naval increase at the present

The Atlantic fleet, with the exception of
the coast squadron, will rendezvous at
Hampton roads next Wednesday, whence
1t will sail January for the West Indies
for the winter maneuvers. The battleships
Iowa. Kearsarge and Kentucky have gone
into drydock at the New York navy yard
for some slight repairs and painting before
going to Hampton roads.
No search problem has yet been planned
for the fleet, and If there IS anything Of
the sort this year it will probably be de-
vised by Rear Admiral Evans. The feet
will go to Culebra, usual, and engage In
extensive maneuvers. At Guantanamo
there will be the regular small arms target
practice on the new ranges and the annual
sports will take place there. About April

Cooking School at Washington,

The post at Washington barracks Is to
have cooking school this spring. The new
school will be one of two new sub-schools
for the instruction of bakers and cooks, to
be operated by the subsistence department
of the army. The other is TO be at the
Preside of San Francisco, Cal These
schools will be modelled along the lines Of
the Fort Riley institution. and two officers
Capts. Rooster and Ferguson of the SUBJ
sistence department, who are now taking
the course themselves at Fort Riley-wiIl
be in charge of the new schools. 1t is
thought likely that by the time the new
school at Washington barracks is opened
that post will have received one of the ten
dough- mixing or bread-kneading machines
recently bought by the subsistence DEPART
ment, as q result of the recent competitive
tests of such machines at West Point. N.
1t is considered probable that Fort Myer

Capt. Richard o. Rickafd of the Signal
Corps, on duty at Fort Leavenworth, Kan.

A FRAGRANT SHRUB,

The Lavendula Vera is low shrub
which grows about three feet in
heights; the leaves are very narrow
and of a deep green color. This
plant is commonly called Sweet Law
ender, owing to it's delightful fragrance.
It gives volatile oil, which, besides it's
fragrance, is much used for medicinal
purposes, being stimulating and aro-
matte in characters Every one knows
of the popular lavender water which is
so refreshing and has such a desirable
fragrance. -: The 'Lavendula is propa
gated by seeds and cuttings. It is
rather tender plant and must be taken
up for the winter and kept in the
greenhouse, living room or cool cellar
and planted out again in the spring.
Give it good loan and be sure to pro-
vide good drainage, and they. enjoy. a
rather, warm and moist situation; this
applies to them as pot plants. Outside
they will thrive in any good soil, if
rather warm. Cuttings root very east
ly. If seed is to be sown, sow it in
pans; it must not be allowed to get too
wet SO that they will damp off, but
give the pan a warm place. Sow the
seed thinly and cover very lightly.
When the seedlings come up place the
pan as close to the glass as possible,
and when they are large enough trans
plant them into small thumb pots and
shift into larger ones when they, re-
quire it; they should be large enough to
plant out by the last of May or first
of June whenever weather IS suitable.
Flowers are borne on long spikes.

preferred stock issue. However, the
support offered to Union Pacific, grow
ing confidence over the money outlook,

potency of the merger and combina-

vived speculative excitement. Great
animation and buoyancy, marked the

revival.

roots of the large varieties often grow

long and grass-like, and the flowers
which appear the second year from the
seed are large, handsome and Of pecu-

For winter use the roots should be

the cellar. In thissway they do not be-
