ROUGH RIDING TRIP
Presidential Party Reaches Home Mud Bespattered.
RODE IN STORM TO MOUNT VERNON
One of Roosevelt's Explorations on Horseback Through Virginia. Mrs. and Miss Roosevelt
 on the Excursfou


 WASHINGTON, May 2S.-A badly mud bespattered party, at the head of which was President Roosevelt, got of car of the Washington, Alexandria and Mount Vernon Electric railway here shortly before 6 o'clock last night.
 They had been on a visit to Mount Vernon, part of the trip being by horse. back, and had been caught in a heavy shower. As the result of the storm the roads were in fearful condition, and as the riders progressed they were splash. ed from head to foot with mud. The other members of the party besides the president were Mrs. Roosevelt, Miss Ethel Roosevelt Postmaster General Meyer and Captain Fitz-Hugh Lee, one of the presidents military aids. The clothing of the entire party was drenched. The trip in many respects was rough riding" one.
 The president has explored on horse back much of the country about Wash. ington lying north of the Potomac riv- CT. He also has made occasional visits across the river west of Washington in the vicinity of Chain bridge, the Aque- duct bridge and various other places. He was anxious, however, to make tho longer trip to Mount Vernon and sew eral days ago planned the excursion. The day broke cloudy and heavy, but by 10 o'clock the sun began to shine dimly through the clouds, and the pros- poets seemed good for fair weather. The party accordingly started.
 They had cantered along the road. however, but few miles when a se- were storm overlook them. They did not have time to find shelter before all of them got drenched almost to the skin. Finally they cspied an unoccu- pied farmhouse along the roadside and sought shelter under the "lean to- at the rear for half an hour. Covering in the outbuildings also was found for the horses. There was a remarkably heavy downpour of rain and vivid flashes of lightning, accompanied by peals of thunder.
 Rain was still falling lightly as the party again took up the trip to Mount Vernon, which was reached about 2 o'clock, almost an hour behind the scheduled time. Here Colonel Dodge, the superintendent of the grounds, gave them a cordial welcome.
 The guests were ready to return to Washington at half past 3 o'clock, but again rain set in and delayed them. Then the sun shone again, and the party set off for Washington.
 "The ride up to Alexandria was slip pery and muddy" said one of the par ty, 4but there were no mishaps, and we had a jolly time, all the same"

If the Sun Were Another co,or,

It Is amazing to consider the possi. Utilities if the sun were some other color. If it were blue. for instance. there would be only two colors in the world, blue and black: or if 1t were red then everything would be red or black In the latter case we should have red snow. red lilies, black grass, black clear sky and red clouds. There would be little variety. however. if the sun were green. Things that are now yellow would still remain that color, but there would be no reds. pur- pies, orange or pinks and very few of those cheery hues that make the world so bright and pleasant.

IN the neighborhood Of It, and It came to be
known by his name.
But in 1871, during a violent storm of sew
eral days duration, the subterranean outlet
to the waters of the prairie, known as the
great sink, became clogged with moss and
other debris that drifted into it. Then the
water rose over the prairie to depth of from
three to twenty feet, and for twenty years
the prairie remained lake.
Such phenomena are not rare in Florida
and they prove that the subterranean fea-
lures Of the State are even more remarkable
than those Of the surface.
