the bank of the Potomac and in the grounds of the Naval hospital. It has been hacked by souvenir fiends and. though once on level ground, it IS now in a depression six feet deep.
 The rock gets it's name from the fact that 1t marks the landing place of General Braddock and his colonial force. which started there in 1755 for Fort Duquesne, now Pittsburgh, and were defeated by the Indians and the French. George Washington was a member of Braddocks staff
 In later years it was the base mark for important surveys in the laying out of Washington. Even now, the Attorney General says, it is an inn portant point in connection with cer- tain investigations which may lead to litiga tion to determine the right of the United States to lands bordering on the Potomac.
 W1ekersham gave the Navy Depax- ment history of the rock in great detail and as the result of the inter est he aroused steps will be taken to ensure the lasting preservation of the rock by building a solid iron fence around its resting place

ENGLAND'S WASP PLAGUE
Interfering With Business-Extensiv
 ''Swatfest' Now in Progress.

London, Sept. -Englands plague of wasps-the worst ever known---is growing worse. While America is s'Swatting" flies, Englishmen are swatting wasps. So serious has the situation become that in many sec tions of the country the services of the Boy Scouts have been enlisted in the swatfest.
 The wasps, fighting to the last ditch, have in some instances performed ex- traordinary stunts. At Kingston-on- Thames they compelled a confectioner to close his shop for five days, after 31 nests in the vicinity had been raid ed. Before the wasps had been busted from the shop they had destroyed $50 worth of stock. Tn the London su- burb of Wilesden wasps held up the street car service for more than an hour. The motorman had been stung by a whole swarm, and while he was being treated and before a substitute could be procured, his car was strand ed, blocking the entire line
 One despairing fruit-grower offered p cents for every nest destroyed on his farm. The Boy Scouts, hearing of the Offer, earned $35 in three days. The county of Bedfordshire is suffer ing worst, 4,000 wasps being caught in two days on Lord Ampthill's estate. In Northamptonshire 5000 were caught in week in one provision store.

CoURANTs FAULTY VISION.

The esteemed ''Courant' thinks -.the trouble'' with the expired Gen eral Assembly was 'the free rides" to and from the sessions, "a very de- moralizing factor and the quarrel between Senator Judson and House Leader Banks. This view has the ad- vantage of splendid novelty It ought to be a revelation to those who have thought that the malady afflicting the legislature was an impudent lobby representing greedy interests in as- sociation with owned" statesmen. Legislators do not get free rides Their charges for travel are part of their compensation, almost universal ly throughout the United States. As for the quarrel between Banks and Judson, it wasn't a quarrel. but an annihilation Judson was in .sthis mat ter an irresistible body. But who was the immovable obstacle?

THE PRIMARY ELECTION.

Direct primaries under the new law closed in Massachusetts, yester- day. More than 16o,O00 voters parti- cipated in the nomination for gover- nor and the primary was very quiet one. The result, both in the Repub- lican and the Democratic party, was decisive. Governor Toss, to whom the states owes direct primaries, led the field by plurality of more than 10000. Lieut.. Governor Frothingham won a decisive victory for the Re- publican nomination. In the munich pal election in San Francisco a candi- date for mayor was selected by avote of two to one and the incumbent of the office was beaten despite a pow erful machine. So it went all over the country, save in a few states, like Connecticut, where political progress is backward.
 No doubt persons opposed to direct primaries will arise to remark that not all the voters participated. The accusation is true, but is not to the point. Under the old plan of nomi- ton by convention few delegates would have assembled somewhere 10 select a candidate. Their choice might, or might not be representative of party convictions. But when the selections are by a hundred thousand voters the result is indeed satisfac- tory as showing an actual choice. Where the result as between two can didates is close the meaning merely is that the electors are closely divided as to the merits of the men, and either candidate will be found sufff- ciently in sympathy with the idea,s and aspirations of those whom he will represent. It is comparatively easy to control convention con- sisting of few delegates. But it IS difficult to control convention in which the entire body of electors may participate

OYSTERMEN TO RENEW
 FIGHT AGAINST THRUST" !"

New Haven, Sept. 2S.-It was de- finitely decided Tuesday by lawyers representing the Connecticut Natural Oysterm ems association to begin an- other suit against the Sealshipt Oy- ster company in the fight to keep the Sealships company off oyster growing territory in the harbor, which is claimed to be part of the state free oyster ground. Judge Bennett in the superior court Monday dissolved the injunction in the suit of Michael Ham mond, an officer of the State Natural Oystermen's association, against the Sealshipt company. This action was the result of the plaintiffs not being ready to go on with their case. The lawyers for the naturals decided that they will, with the consent of the attorney general of the state, insti- tute suit against the Sealship com pany in the name of the state in stead of Captain Hammond being the plaintiff It is expected that the at torney general will come into the suit to press the petition for an injunction against the Sealshipt company on the ground that the Sealshipt is operat- ing on ground that belongs to the state. The natural oystermen's as- sociation claims that Marcus H. Hol- comb, a former attorney general of this state, held that the oyster ground in dispute is state ground.
 
 in getting busy on the ground follow ing Judge Bennett's decision.
 With eight steamers the Sealshipt company started in work on the ground that figured in the lawsuit and dredged the stock from it and transferred it to six sailing vessels | that were in the upper harbor wait ] ing to load it. Captain Hammond was 1 on hand keeping tally on the amount | of seed stock that the Sealshipt was removing from the beds
 Captain Hammond said that the Oystermen en's association in the suit tc be instituted in the name of the state of Connecticut will push the fight vigorously, for it is believed by the members of the state associa ton, he says that this is the beginning of ar l attempt to encroach further upon the grounds that are operated by the natural oyster men.
 Captain Hammo ond expects to make | report on the situation to the State | Oystermen's association at a meeting | to be held in Bridgeport.

The more surely a wea- pon kills, the more carefully does the enemy keep away from it. Never will the mortality of battles be as great again as it was when men met in hand tojdand scombat. When the way to victory was by tapping your man on the head with battle axe it was better to do a first class job. Quarter could not safely be given so long as the foeman was near enough, so that, though fallen, he could seize his opponent about the legs, or, ris7% ing, stab him in .the back But there isS nc" use in killing an opponent a mile away, who is sufficiently wound ed to be hors de combat. Other the orizers have found the end of war in the inter-relationship of trade. But since some very powerful. enterprises prosper more when there is war than when there is not, and since the search for markets is keen. it is doubted if trade comity alone can produce universal enduring peace. How then may arrive a change for the better? Must men always fight, and slay? No.

 It was far. however. from being as reactionarx as some of its opredeces- sofs.. dfIf efHtr qa aglsfativeM skies were darker. it was the darkness that pre- cedes the dawn. The legislative goats" prevailed, but with. more diff ficulty than in any previous session. Progressive leadership was abundant and strong. The reactionaries had the strength by a little. The pro- gressfves had the Tbrafnss lin the past progressive policies had been too of ten represented by men whose hearts were better than their heads, or whose experience was less than their desire to do good work.
 Legislation for direct primaries was beaten. workmen's compensation was beaten. No change was made in the hard conditions governing the liability of employers to injured workmen The initiative and referendum was beaten.
 But the defeats were not matter of course They followed hard contests, and sharp discussion. The state was aroused to what was going on-There- fore the defeat is only temporary. The victory is certain.

would believe so. She has known Mr..

because the marriage date which had
been set was so remote, she explained.
