Atlas and His Load.
January l4, 1911.

Strictly speaking, atlas" is a mis- homer for a map book, since it was not the world, but the heavens, that the atlas" of mythology upheld. Mer- cator, the famous Dutch geographer, who made globes for Emperor Charles V. of Germany, was the first to use the name in this connection, choosing it as a convenient and in some sort an appropriate title. because Atlas. the demigod, figures with world upon his shoulders as q frontspiece of some early works on geography.
 Atlas, it was said, made war with other Titans upon Zeus and, being conquered, was condemned to bear heaven upon his head and hands. Lat CT tradition represented him as n man changed by means of Medusa's head into a mountain, upon which rested heaven and all its stars.
 Tn any case, Atlas was always asso- ciated with heavy burden strongly borne. Thus Shakespeare makes War wick say to Gloucester:
 Thou art no Atlas for so great a weight.
 It is not difficult to see how by an association of ideas this came to be chosen as the name for q book of maps which upholds and exhibits to us the whole world. ....

Reian of the Dandies.

In the matter of dress we have fallen upon decline since the days when the Duke of Wellington was refused ad- mission to Almack's because he was wearing trousers instead of brooches and silk stockings. Even Almnck's, however, had to admit trousers within its closely guarded portals the following year. When Gladstone was up" at Oxford the reign of the dandies was in full swing. When late in life he re- visited the university to lecture to the undergraduates on Homer he was asked by c. w. l.. Russell whether he noticed any difference between his au- dience and the men of his own time.
 "Yes," he replied, 'In their dress an enormous change. am told that had among my audience some of the most highly connected and richest men in the university, and there wasn't one whom I couldn't have dressed from top to toe for f5."-St. James Gazette.

Marshal Tureen and His Soup.

There is a quaint old shop in London which still bears the name Of Samuel Birch, the first purveyor of turtle soup in the English capital. Amid all the changes of the city Birch's shop fin Cornhill survives in the guise it wore when its owner was lord mayor of London in the memorable year of Wa terloo. Samuel Birch achieved distinc- tion in many fields. He was an orator and a patriot; he was colonel of the city militia and accepted with great good nature his nickname of Marshal Tureen; he was Q man of letters, pro duced plays that held the stage and books that were readable, though now seldom read. One of his plays, "The Adopted Child" was popular long aft CT its author had killed his last turtle. Ills daughter married Lamartine, and one of his sons, fine classical scholar, begat q family of scholars. Yet Birchs claim to fame rests most upon the fact that he was the man who made turtle soup popular. City merchants, templars from the inns and dandies from the west end all fiocked to Corn hill, the turtle house of all London Arponaut

PRISONER INSANE,
IS POLICE CHARGE
Temporarily Deranged, Man
Claiming Fredericksburg
AS Home Is Held.

Temporarily deranged, 1t is believ-
ed. Charles Kronquist. German, who
was found unconscious In a gas filled
room in a lodging house at 46S Penn
sylvania avenue northwest, on De-
cember 13. was today committed to
the Washington Asylum Hospital for
observation.
Kronquist, wearing his clothing
wrong side out and his shoes on the
wrong feet, was found yesterday
afternoon by a policeman in the
Dewey Garage. The man was unable
to tell anything about himself, ex-
cept that he lived in Fredericksburg.
He was arrested on a charge of in
sanity.
With gas flowing from an open
burner, which was believed to have
been accidentally turned on, Kron-
quist was found on December 10 in a
room in the lodging house. He was
unconscious, and 1t was not until
three days later that the doctors in
the Emergency Hospital were able to
learn his identity. He said he was a
machiuist, and gave his age as forty
nine. The police have asked the
Fredericksburg authorities to ascer-
tain IL he has any relatives in that
city.

DISTRICT NATIONAL
IN NEW BUILDING
Banking Quarters Occupied
Today Without lnterfer-
ence to Business.

The District National Bank took pos
session of its quarters in its new build
ing this morning, interfering In no way
with the conduct of business. The
transfer of books, papers, cash, notes,
collateral, etc, was made yesterday.
Thus, after completing a little more
than fifteen months of its existence, for
it was organized September 20, 1903, the
District National Bank has made suf-
ficient strides to be in possession Of a
home of its own in a modern fireproof
building that is a credit to the business
section of the city.
President r. N. Harper, Vice Presi-
dent J. Miller Kenyon. and Cashier
Ridgeway were kept busy today well
coming customers and friends of the
institution.
In addition to the banking rooms,
there has been installed a safety deposit
department in the basement Of the build
ing, the entrance being directly from
the center of the bank proper. Presi-
dent Harper has exercised personal su-
pervision of the upbuilding of the struc-
ture in practically every detail.
A feature of the banking quarters
rather unusual is the arrangement by
which the officers quarters occupy part
Of the west half of the office, divided
from the banking room by low rail-
ing.
The officers and directors will be at
home this evening, when the formal
opening OF the bank will take place In
vitations have been sent to depositors,
bankers, and Stock Exchange people.
