the captain Of the Washington Cavalry,
which was employed in scouting duty dur
Ing the British invasion. For number of
years Capt. Caldwell was a member of the
city councils and board of health.
Commodore Zantzinger resided here few
years, and after him came Lieut.. Col.
Broom of the Marine Corps, who won an
enviable record for service in the Florida
war.
Col. Robert Beale, a member OF the bar,
bought several lots on the A street front of
square ISL, on which he erected a number of
houses. Col. John G. Nicolay, private sec

for some years resided in one of the houses
in the block, and 1t was there much of his
army hospital was located on the ground
north of the square.
The Coombe property at the southeast
corner of the square, lots 1, 2, and IS, was
improved in the twenttes by the construc-
ton of two-story brick house and another
passed to Maj George w. Walker of the
United States Marines, who for many years
made his home in the larger house.
The ground value was 4 cents per foot
about 1920, and in 1880 cents The i'm
provements were listed to G. Coombe, $500
and $1,000, and E. B. Caldwell, $500.
The square between I'd, Sd and streets
and Pennsylvania avenue was plated for
fifteen lots, of which lots to II, including
all the west half of the square, remained
in the name of Mr.. Carroll. The two lots
IL and Is, on the avenue at Sd street In
1899 were vested in E. Plowden. Within a
year or two George Collard had lot l, cor
ner Sd and G streets; James Middleton, lot
15i w. Veitch, IA on Sd street; A. Kerr, lot

The square between I'd and Sd streets
south of A street and north of the avenue,
known as No. 761, was also slow in i'm
proving. Up to the beginning of the civil
war less than half a dozen buildings ap-
peared. The block was laid off for eigh-
teen lots, which were assigned equally to
the United States and to Mr.. Carroll. About
1905, when the public school system had
been inaugurated, lot 8, at the northeast
corner of I'd street and Pennsylvania ave-
nue., was selected for the site Of the Eastern
Academy, but in 1910 an exchange was
made with Mr.. Carroll for site at Sd and
D streets southeast Elias B. Caldwell,
clerk of the Supreme Court of the United
States 1900 to 1926, was perhaps the first
actual settler on the square. He bought
the southwest portion, lots to 8, fronting
B street. the avenue and I'd street, in 1908
and 1909. Three cents per foot was the
ruling ground valuation about 1910. Twen-

Transformation of a Ravine.

Mr.. Watterson bought several lots near C
and I'd streets, and he resided in a house on
lot Z for many years. Mr.. Watterson was
the librarian of Congress, a member of the
city councils and trustee of the public
schools.
From large area east of 4th street the
drainage crossed the avenue in a ravne on
the south side of c street, which was after
ward utilized for the Easements of a row
of brick dwellings. Between 9th and 9th
streets north of the avenue in the twentieS
the ground was assessed at 2 cents per
foot and the only building was frame
house occupied from time to time by vari-
Gus colored families.
On the triangular square west of the
present Wallach School Bernard Parsons, a
carpenter, owned a frame dwelling and
shop. NJ. d. c. Marche, master armorer at
the navy yard, settled on lot I, facing the
avenue, in 1925, and half dozen years
later Louis Marceron became his neighbor.
Descendants of this trio are still represent
ed in East Washington. South of the ave-
nue. between Sd and 4th streets George
Hicks was the sole occupant of the square
in the thirties, and between 9th and 18th
streets William II. Gunnell owned a 500
house.
Rev. Robert Little, pastor of the-~Uni-
tartan Church, and William Austin, brick
layer, resided along the avenue in the

tween I'd and Sd streets: John A. Lynch,
clerk, and Capt o. Carr, U. S. N, at cor
ners of I'd street, and John Lee between
4th and 9th streets. By the middle Of the
forties the population of I'd street between
the avenue and c street was materially in
creased. Among the residents were Mrs.

the color schemes and designs of these
beautiful stuffs would be futile. One must
see them to appreciate their beauty, but
the large cut will give a good idea of one
of the simpler ways in which border de-
signs may be used.
Here the material was a marquisette in
black, thickly strewn with white wafer
dots, While the border was formed Of very
large white dots on black. The model was
a beautifully cut and shaped princess with
the fullness of bodice and skirt vanishing
into plaits at the waist line and over the
hip curve.
The material was apparently used length
wise instead of cross wise, as in common
with extra wide bordered stuffs, and the
border was plated in TO form a front panel
running the full length Of the gown shaped
closely by plaits at the waist but falling
loosely toward the bottom of the skirt
The same effect was repeated in the back.

Where should one begin in an account OF
the new models which are increasing in
numbers 80 rapidly and are 80 worthy Of
note? That IS the perplexing question.
Materials and trimmings are exquisite
and expansive, and a wealth of elaboration
is bestowed upon the smart models, even
upon those which appear comparatively
simple. Hand embroidery and all forms Of
hand work are more popular than ever and
appear upon everything from the morning
frock Of linen to the gorgeous evening
gown.
And yet that is too sweeping a statement.
There are simple frocks and charming
ones, too; but general survey OF the i'm
ported models does give one an impression
OF lavish elaboration.
The lines, on the whole, tend toward
simplicity. and at first glance many a model

in those big hand embroidered dots OF
