CENTRAL TRAINS RUNNING LATE
Small Boys Play Railroad Up to
Date.

The Americas small boy is right up
to the minute, and refuses to be lost in
the shuttle. Yesterday morning two
Lee street chaps were playing rail
road" one representing the Seaboard,
while the other reluctantly played as
the Central.
They were to run around the block
and meet at the corner.
The Seaboard boy started of, in a
whirl and went "choO- chooing' round
the block. When he reached the meet
ing point the Central boy was nowhere
to be seen. The Seaboard urchin went
to the starting point and found him sit
ting down.
What's matter with YOU" he asked
angrilY, ''ain't you playin'?''
Course I'm playing" replied the 9th
er little fellow; but you see I'm the
Central train, and I'm runnin' twenty
three hours late"

AFTER STOLEN PROPERTY.
Virginia Authorities Ask the Aid Of
Washington Police.

The sheriff and severai deputies of Fair
fax county, Va, called on Capt Boardman
at police headquarters this morning and
requested the aid of the locafpolice author
tiles to clear up several cases of horse
stealing in Fairfax county, in the vicinity
Of Alexandra, during the past few days.
Detectives Parham and O'Brien were as
signed to the case and they are working
with the authorities from Virginia in an en-
deavor to obtain evidence. It Is expected
that some Of the missing horses will be
found in this city, where they are said to
have been sold, and there may be some ar
rests made in connection with the cases.
A man arrested in Alexandria in this con-
nection gives the name Of Jones and is a
coiored man. When he was questioned by
the authorities after his arrest. 1t Is said, he
stated that he had stolen several horses in
Virginia and had sold three of them in
Washington. He also stated to the police
that he had two men to assist him, and
that they are are in Washington. The de-
tectives named are trying to locate those
men.
Three horses were stolen from the vicinity
of Alexandria recently, and from descrip-
lions of a man suspected in each case it
was believed that one man was responsible
for ali the stealing. horse was stolen
other horse, belonging to w. Worth Smith
was taken from the farm of James Rixey,
near Alexandria, and horse was stolen
from Elihu Kitson at Annandale, Va. The
authorities offered reward of $50 for in
formation leading to the arrest Of the re-
sponsible parties. Yesterday Jones was ia
ken into custody, and, it is said, answers
the description of the man wanted.

SAVING THE BISON.
It Fills No Commercial Need, But Is
Distinctly American.


Saving the buffalo. or more exactly the
bison. from extinction is work which ap-
peals to the sentiment of persons familiar
with the conauering of nature on this con-
tinent. Nobody can read the story of the
settlement of America without coming to
have feeling for the animal which, rang
ing in great herds about the plains, took
such a part in the existence alike Of the
Indian and of the white. Filling no COM
mercial need, the bison has seemed to have
small chance Of continuing to decorate the
planet. Although his flesh resembles beef
and his hide Is much more valuable than
that Of any domestic animal we have, and
although by cross-breeding with certain
kinds of cattle he seems likely to pro-
duce a new and valuable farm animal, with
a thick coat of fine soft hair yet small re-
lance can be placed upon commercial argu-
ments for his preservation. He must be
saved by science and history, and the in
strument most likely to be successful is the
government. Individuals and private asso-
Citations are frail reliance for the centu-
ries.
Steps. therefore. are being considered by
the American Bison Society, recently or
ganized in New York. toward inducing the
governments both of the United States and
Of Canada to take part in the work of
preservation. The honorary president of
the association is Theodore Roosevelt the
honorary vice president is Earl Grey, gov
ernor general of Canada; the active presi-
dent is William T. Hornaday, director of
the New York Geological Park. One of the
president of the Boston Society Of Natural
History. and the board Of directors Is made
up largely of men well known In science
and education.

Arborvitae.
From the Garden Magazine.

AS an ornamental tree for general plant

think, to be preferred. 1t can be put to so
many different purposes. and seems happy
in all. AS a hedge and as a screen, on ac-
count of it's dense habit Of growth, 1t is
especially recommended for fiat, wind-swept
sections AS an ornamental tree on the
lawn, 1t is unsurpassed by any in its height
and style of foliage The color of its foli-
age Is brownish green, turning darker as
winter approaches. In winter its color is
not attractive, but as spring arrives II
changes from brownish to dense green,
turning darker as the season advances 1t

has been said to be better adapted to stand

narrower cone, and SO has denser ap-
