is FIVE miles from Norfolk, and five
miles from Newport News, four miles
from Fortress Monroe, and eight miles

have four miles of water front. There
is to be a great military drill ground
30 miles across it. There is to be
a canoe = trail, two miles long, run

to follow the canoe trail for mile

The grand piers, already mentioned,
are to extend 2,4OO feet into Hampton

They are to be 800 feet wide, and
connected by a cross pier 1900 feet
long at distance of 2,400 feet from
shore, incloslng a magnificent grand

OF the holding Of exposftions there
seems TO be no end, and Jamestown,
Va. is next IN line for recognition as
the promoter of the exposition type
OF entertainment and exploitation.
And perhaps no place in the country,
from historic and romantic associa-
tions with the history of the United
States is more entitled to the popular
Endorsement and patronage than this
place in the beautiful garden-land of
Virginia.
1t is three centuries since the first
English settlement in America was
made at Jamestown and 1t is pro-
posed that the ter-centennial of this
event shall be celebrated next year
from May to November 1. Elaborate
preparations are being made, and the
prospects are bright for the holding,
of a successful exposition.

The first settlement was at James
town island, about 30 miles from Nor

account of the convenient transporta-

Showdown on Rural.

Postmaster General Cortleyou in

to rural route patrons is his intention
to 'discontinue without delay snJ

that because OF a lack OF appreciation
CT the service the expenditure inVolv.
ed is unwarranted," and the an
nouncement that where patronage Is
insufficient to warrant a dialy delivery

appreciative and two many patrons
look upon the service as something to
which they have the same general
