EXCURSIONS.

Sailing every day in the year at $50 p.m.,
steamers of the Norfolk and Washington
line maintain a convenient schedule be-
tween this city, Norfolk and surrounding
Virginia points. They constitute a means
of reaching the historic places of the Vir-
ginia tidewater greatly appreciated by tour
lists, who usually include in visit to the
capital Of the land a side trip to the inter-
esting points about Old Point Comfort and
Norfolk. Their state rooms are excellently
furnished, public cabins spacious and artis-
tic, the cafes and dining service all that
can be desired. Daily connections are made
at Norfolk with steamers for New York,
Boston and other points, likewise rail con-
nections for the southern winter resorts.
Excellence of train equipment is one of
the many reasons why the Washington
Sunset Route excursions to California are
SO popular. One may suit accommodations
to his means, for trains include not only
tourist sleeping cars, but also the most
luxurious Pullmans. There is no sacrifice
of comfort travelling in the tourist cars, for
they have every convenience. Personally
conducted excursions are made from this
city three times a week. The high-class
California tours made via the Washington
Sunset Route offer attractive inducements
to those who desire to visit the Pacific
coast. Particulars may be had at the office
of the general agent, A. j. Poston, 511
Pennsylvania avenue.
Many are undoubtedly unacquainted with
the convenience and, dispatch with which
one may reach Kensngton and surround
ing suburbs via electric cars. Those who
are averse to steam-road travel reach these
places via the Chevy Chase lake cars
which run on a fifteen-minute schedule
from New York avenue and 18th street.
connecting direct at Chevy Chase lake with
Kensington trolleys. Round-trip tickets
may be secured at the waiting room, 1927
New York avenue. Skaters going to Chevy
Chase lake appreciate the convenience of
these cars. as they run direct to the lake
without change.

sentatiYeseplan for New Building.

Tho annual mass meeting OF the members
OF the various Episcopal parishes OF the
District interested in the furtherance Of the
work Of the Bell Home for Children was
held Monday evening last in the basement
of the Ascension Church, 18th street and
Massachusetts avenue northwest. The
gathering was large one and much earn
estness was evinced in the discussion of
plans. The meeting was opened with
prayer by the Right Rev. Henry Yates Sat
terlee. bishop OF Washington, who also
made the first address Of the evening. He
spoke his commentator Of the Bell Home
in his power to assist in carrying on the
work begun twelve years ago by Mrs. Mary
@. Davenport, the president Of the board
of lady managers Of the home. The bishop
der the direction Of the cathedral manage
ment and its trustees, which, 1t was
stated, will ultimately be accomplished.
Rev. Willard g. Davenport, the rector

tary Of the meeting, read the minutes OF
the gathering of one year ago. Bishop
Satterlee, who announced that he was COM
PEELED to attend meeting of the Church
mans League, expressed regret at having
to leave early, and DR.. Mitchell was called
to preside. Mr.. Davenport made an ad-
dress, in which he appealed to the friends
in the erection of q new building in Ana
costa, where the winter establishment Is
located. The nucleus of fund, amounting
to about $500. has been collected, stated
Mr.. Davenport, with which to help in the
construction Of a suitable building, but
what is needed is a structure to cost, ap-
proximately, $4,000 Mrs. Mary G.. Daven-
port submitted her report as president of
the board Of managers. She took occasion
to refer to the appeals that have come to
her on the part Of persons desiring to have
orphans placed in the Bell Home, of the
necessity for a new building and Of the re-
ceipt of letters Of appreciation from former
inmates Of the establishment, who are now
engaged in some useful occupation in the
world.
Miss Frances Davenport, superintendent
of the home, presented her report, which
dealt, among other matters. with the
health Of the children, who now number
twenty-seven, and with donations received
during the year Of food and clothing. Allu-
sion was made to the fact that the small
sum Of $u was all that had been expended
for medical supplies for the inmates in the
year past.
Mrs. j. R. Johnson, treasurer Of the
board of managers, made report, and DR..
Mitchell spoke, complimenting the man.
ayers on what they had accomplished and
indorsing the movement for new build
ing. Several others spoke in a similar way.

INDUSTRIAL CONDITIONS.
illustrated Lecture by Miss Helen
Varick Boswell.

Miss Helen Varick Boswell Of the Ma
tional Civic Federation, New York. deliv-
cred lecture last evening at the Cairo
upon the Industrial conditions OF the coun-
try. The lecture was illustrated with
colored stereopticon views. During the
first part Of her talk Miss Boswell said
that in Washington the people are not face
to face with the industrial conditions Of
other parts Of the nation. but that even
in the capital city Of the country, where
the people had seemingly placed the hand
Of disapproval upon the establishment Of
manufacturing enterprises, there is much
need for improvement in the conditions of
the working people.
1.-The late Senator Hanna was the first
president of the federation Miss Boswell
explained, land 1t always gave him much
pleasure to be connected with the organi-
zation, because as he always expressed
himself, 1t gave labor equal representation
with capital and did so much to bring to-
gether the two warning elements in the in
dustrial world
The lecturer then pointed to the fact
that at the present time August Belmont
Gompers, president of the American Fed
GRAFTON of Labor, Is first vice president,
and Oscar Stratus, Secretary of the Depart
ment of Commerce and Labor. another vice
president. Miss Boswell then, in turn,
pointed to these leaders In their various
walks of life and told in detail Of the good
that is being done by the members Of the
federation in the effort to benefit the con-
dition Of the laboring class. Later during
the lecture Miss Boswell, with the aid of
stereoptlcon views. explained the work that
Is being done by many of the great manu-
featuring concern owners to make the lives
Of their employees easier. Recreation. din
ing, reading and gymnasium rooms recent
ly added to the plants of many Of the large
concerns were shown upon the screen. In
all the pictures shown the sanitation was
of the best order. Toward the latter part
Of the lecture Miss Boswell spoke at length
regarding the work in the cotton mill dis
tricts of the southland. In many of these
places where the conditions are not what
they should be, still the living quarters OF
the employees are being improved. and in
stead of barren wastes in the yard spaces
the dwellers in the small houses are
brought nearer to the heart of nature by
the cultivation Of flowers and shrubbery.

REMOVAL OF LONG BRIDGE.
Ice in the River is Expected to Cause
q Delay.


No extensive work in the tearing down
OF the old Long bridge will be done, 1t Is
stated. until the ice conditions are such that
a pile-driving machine can work at the
bridge in order to drive the piling for the
false work that must be constructed before
the heavy bridge timbers can be taken
down. Mr.. NJ. c. Clark, who has the con-
tract for the building Of this false work,
yesterday had the tug James o. Carter
go to the bridge and get a raft Of pine
piling, which had been left at the bridge
several days ago, and bring it to this city
for safety should the ice on the river be-
come very heavy. The raft was brought
into the harbor and moored in place
where it will be safe from drifting Ice. The
work of removing some of the bolts and
rods that hold the old structure together
may be done while waiting for the weather
conditions to get such as to allow the pile
driving work to go on at the bridge.
1t Is stated that the contractors for the
removal of the bridge have secured wharf
at Alexandria on which the timbers from
the old bridge will be stored while the
bridge is being taken down, timber by tim
Der. 1t is probable it will be two or three
months before the bridge is down and the
channel cleared of the stone piers.
