A Washington Letter.
Washington, d. c., April 10, 100

w d5ilhBtOil ~ W, ApTil ~, lJOi.
We have had taste of Vermont sugar
weather this week. with quite furry of
snow, and this after several days in
which the thermometer went SO in the
shade.
Washington stands the heat well, looks
every way when it comes as if it was
used to it, and suggests to one who wants
to enjoy life that he would best get back
again into Vermont, where both health
and beauty flourish with the advance of
spring.
But Washington is well placed as the
capital of this great nation. For the win
ter climate, in which Congress for the
greater part does its business, is fairly
mild and we'll adapted for such work /;
and the city itself is one of great beauty,
and splendid distances, spreading out
upon all sides upon the neighboring hills.
Grass, foliage and blossoms, ALL do
their part i'll welcoming the coming sum-
mer, and the Potomac, flowing through
its wide valley, matches in well with the
rest of the scenery.
lhad the pleasure this last week of Wis.,
iting the neighboring city of Richmond,
capital that was of the Southern Confed-
eracy. 1t, 100, is most romantically
placed upon high ground with extensive
views of the surrounding country in all
directions, and another quite wide valley
through which the remarkably pictur-
esque James River finds its way, in pass
ing from the mountains to the sea.
Where one usually approaches the
city, by the cars, everything seems quite
plain and far from prosperous; but when
we ascend the long hills to the city prop
Ell we come to IA well laid out exceedingly
attractive and homelike city.
| visited the state library, looking over
its old files of papers. The capitol build
ings are very creditable, the library most
pleasantly conducted. We also drove
over the city and through its very extern
sive and handsomely laid out cemetery
noted as the burying place of quite a
number of distinguished Americans, in
GLIDING several Presidents. The view,
too, from Richmond, and in the country
that we pass through between Fred
ericksburg and Richmond is of very
large and attractive farming state, the
land itself seeming to be excellent.
We had the pleasure of call from two
of our Middlebury young men, Mr.. Will
lam Severance aud Mr.. Noble Brooks this
week, in their returning trip from Flor
ida, where they, and number of others
from Addison County had passed the
winter. They reported meeting Mr.. j.
A. Wright and Otto Moore at Richmond,
on their return journey. 1t was very
pleasant to meet these young men, vigor-
Gus and In fine spirits and carried my
thoughts back to their respective homes

ANTELOPE HERDS INCREASE.
Large Bands Seen in Western Part of
the State.

While the law protects antelope In
this state such protection would be of
little avail in much of the country
west Of the Missouri If it were not for
the fact that the ranchers themselves
look TO the prevention Of the slaugh-
ter Of the animals. Under that pro-
lection reports indicate that num-
Der Of bands Of the animals are locat-
ing themselves. Several with from
twenty to thirty in a band are report
ed to be on Bad river, near Philip,
this winter, probably having come out
Of the Bad Lands. where they make
their summer pasturage. One man
who has just come in from the Grand
river country reports seeing band OF
more than 100 on that stream a few
days ago. He claims to have counted
120 in the band, and that they were
spread over a hilltop, and he knew
that some Of the band were out Of his
sight. With the protection which Is
now being given them these animals
should in a few years again be numer-

GRIEF FOR THE SALOON MEN
II is Seen in a New Law Enacted at
Pierre.

One of the new laws enacted by
The recent legislature which will make
considerable trouble for some Of the
saloon men Of South Dakota, prOyid-
ss that no saloon can do business with
in a third of a mile Of an educational
institution. In Sioux Falls there are
number Of saloons within the pro-
hibited distance OF the high school
building, the Central public school
building and the Sioux Falls Business
college. The same is true OF practi-
caIly every other city or town in the
state. where saloons are doing busi-
ness within a third Of Z mile from
public school buildings. The only
weak poin in the law, from the stand
point of those desiring its strict en-
forcement, Is the failure Of the law
to specify exactly what schools will
come under the head Of educational
Institutions. This leaves a lOOphOle
which will without doubt be taken
advantage of by saloon men who may
be affected by the provisions OF the
new law, and IL attempts are made in
Sioux Falls or elsewhere to withheld
licenses from saloons doing business
within the distance OF third OF a
mile of any school or college, litiga-
ton is certain TO result and the exact
meaning Of educational institutions
will have to be judicially defined.

An unusual 4cere was enacted on
the floor Of the New York stock ex-

sharp contrast to the decentralization

change In speculative sentiment from
the panicky feeling OF the day before.
Congratulations were exchanged al
around the room on the fact that the
members of the exchange without ex-
ception had successfully passed
through the severe declines in prices
Of the past two weeks and hopes were
generally expressed that the worst was
over.
A feature Of the day was the state
ment by William Rockefeller. He
said:
The present astonishing decline in
the valves Of securities is as much a
mystery to me as ii can be to anyone
| know that public confidence has
been disturbed. but do not think that
1t could have been in any such meas
ure az TO justify so great a fall in
prices. With genuine. overwhelming
prosperity throughout the country
there certainly seems no adequate rea-
son for 1t. AS for myself and assO.
ciates, our faith in the future of the
country has not been shaken at all
and we have been buyers and not sell
ere throughout the past ten days
Throughout the business troubles we
have done and are doing all we car
to restore and maintain public conf
dence. 1t Is very clear to me that the
people who are throwing away their
securities at panic prices will sorelJ
regret II within the next six months.
