FOURTH OF JULY PLANS
At CHESAPEAKE BEACH

The crabbers and fishermen OF Wash
ington are having their innings at

Chesapeake hard-shells that a special
car was added 70 the equipment OF the
last train from the Beach TO carry the
bags filled with the crabs 10 this city.
Among the many improvements at the
Beach during the past two weeks. the
rebuilding OF the long pier at the north
end OF the Beach is considered one OF
the most notable. During the winter
the storms washed away agreat portion
OF this pier. but BY constant labor since
the spring this feature OF the Beach mas
been repaired. II is at present about
three-QuaTters OF a mile IN length, and
last Sunday about 2,00 people used II

While Washington was Writhing IN the
grasp OF Cae OF the hottest seasons that
the city has ever experienced, about 5000
Of the wise ones were reclining on the
grassy banks Of the Chesapeake or en-
1Oying the cool breeze of the bay from
the board walk and the piers.
So cool Is 81 al the beach even on the
hottest days that the dancing pavilion
is one Of the most popular features at
the bay resort. The bathing at the
beach is coming IN for its share OF praise
as means or securing rest from
the heat OF the city. The verdict OF the
multitude is that the beach Is one Of the
finest on the Atlantic coast.
The wire fence which prevents the sea
nettles from annoying the baJhers has
been rebuilt, and there is nothing 10

TWO BOATS FOR NORFOLK
AND OLD POINT TONIGHT

Those who have delayed securing ac-
commodation for the Norfolk and Wash
ington Steamboat COmpany's Fourth of
July excursion until this date are likely
10 be disappointed in the matter. While
two Of the company's large steamers
Will make the trip this evening, the
demand has all but exhausted the ac-
commodations, The reduced round trip
fare and the attractiveness of the out
ing are responsible for this. The boats
Will sail at $3.50 tonight, giving an all
night sail on the river and Chesapeake
Bay. landing passengers at Old Point
and Norfolk early Wednesday morning
and returning to the city early Thurs
day morning.
From Norfolk may be reached Vir-

but We are obliged every day 10 turn
away people who apply 10 US as new
customers. The fact Of the business
IS that we are up against a serious prop
osition. I do not see hat there will be
much relief for Washington from this
sort Of thing all through the summer.
1T is a notoEtous fact that there is a
scarcity OF ice in Maine itself and that
the icemen in Maine are having trouble
IN supplying the needs or New York.
Philadelphia. and Boston. Also, YOU
must remember. the ice companies here
are rot going to Tusls up 10 Maine for
any large supplies OF ice, because they
lose money on account of the terrific
cost of transportating ice all the way
from Maine TO the District of Columbia
Much OF Il melts and the cost OF un-
loading. and delivering II is a great big
factor"
Take the reluctance Of the companies
10 get ice from Maine md add 10 this
the fact that the ice plants IN Wash

can easily see that II Is a critical and
a nenacing situation"
Small Dealers Suffer.
Thae the smaller dealers. the middle

not be doubted at all, in spite OF the
bright sfatemer s made by some OF

Confectioners' Ice Plant.
The move among the cOnfectOners of

these excursions twice a year
Benjamin s. Graves. secretary and
treasurer OF the Hayenner Baking Com
pany, believes that Washington Is des-
tined to become a commercial and ship
ping center OF importance and that the
new Shippers Association will exert
potent Influence In bringing this about.
Discussing Washington's future along
these lines. Mr.. Graves said:
There was time when IL was ques-
tOnable whether Washington would
ever be considered a wholesale distribut-
ing center, in fact. such an dea was re-
pellant. not IN harmony, as II were, with
the dignity of the Nations Capital
with the increasing business activity
throughout the South. Washington has
come TO take her proper place among
the cities. The past few years have
Shipping on Increase.
AT one time Baltimore was the
mecca fo- the Southern trade. but she
is now compelled TO divide large por-
ton with our city Washington IS
growing. and she is beginning 70 ap-
ciate her ideal advantages of location
Our city is shipping many times as
much as was shipped five wears AGO.
Jobbing and manufacturing center Is
growing rapidly. Coming events cast
their shadows before

for a commercial center. but none tbat
cannot be overcome. Possibly we do
not get all the advantages that NAV be
derived from the railroad companies but
we can not start at the top Of the lad
der and time will give as equal rights
and privileges with the older tobbing
and manufacturing cities.
Feel & Steady Growth.
In our individual business we feel a
steady growth in our shipping as well
as our home trade, and We are Of the
opinion that our business brothers feel
this also.
We have. at present. a large and
competing electric power plant for the
lighter manufactures which will serve
for that purpose until Great Falls is
, properly developed for heavier lines.
As 10 the labor. the sons and daughters
Of our city are almost compelled 10 seek

Low Freight Rates.
The large steamers Of the Norfolk
and Washington Steamboat Company,
which ply daily between Norfolk and
Washington. offer an excellent advant-
age, with freight rates al a minimum.
and Norfolk is today the gateway 10
the Southern trade. We look forward
20 the TIN when Washington will be
hailed as d jobbing and manufacturing
center. The trend Of the times demands

o. the association win be seconded by
the lines.
The attitude Of the freight department
or the Southern railway was voiced TO-
day by J. II. Jones. chief clerk OF the
department. who spoke in the absence
OF Freight Traffic Manager L. Green.
Southern Glad to Help.
'.The business men Of Washington may
be assured" said Mr.. Jones. that the
Southern Will cooperate gladly In their
efforts to increase the jobbing trade OF the
city and to extend IL into new fields. We
have a selfish interest IN doing Just this
thing. for larger jobbing interests here
mean larger freiEhts Beyond this self
ish interest. the Southern takes per
sonal interest IN Washington. where its
home Offices are located and from which
fits activities radiate.
'It IS true. perhaps. that freight is
now DELAYED because Of the fact that
there is not enough at any one time to
MI a car and the car is held until its
full quota is supplied. II Is an accepted
axiom OF the shipping business that the
larger the volume OF freight. the greater
the expedition with which it is handled.
by helping the establishment OF other
johbing businesses in Washington thus
increasing the amount Of shipments. the
present jobbers win be helping them
selves.

Battle Wounds Carefully.

Slight burns can be treated best by
bathing In a solution Of llnseed oil and
lime water. bandaged with light gauze.
a common accident is the explosion OF
powder in the face. The injury should
be treated Immediately by bathing in a
CarbOlic solution and covering with an
tiseptlc gauze. and then hurried to the
surgeon. When powder is blown into
the eyes, the eyeballs should be bathed
with a solution OF boric acid, a tea
spoonful 10 a glass OF water. To avoid
blindness the patient should be hurried
at once to a oculist If such rules
are followed the work OF the hOspl-
tails would be facilitated and much un-
necessary suffering avoided"
