Washington, September 15.-(Special.)- Go with me for a stroll through the cap itoI grounds.
 It is a stroll that is always interest ing, restful, inspiring. But this is afternoon about } o'clock, and the Marine band, one of the finest in the world. is rendering it's regular Wednes- day afternoon public concert at the east entrance. The music adds a rare charm to the promenade.
 As we enter the grounds from the east near the Congressional Library building we get a pleasing and animated view of thousands of people seated on the high. broad flight of stone steps that lead up to the capitol and on the plots of grass at each side of the main entrance. In the foreground there are dozens of au- tomobiles and carriages loaded with an appreciative audience of the musical en- tertainment.
 The grounds surrounding the capitol cover many acres and every foot is kept in perfect order by a small company or employees There are broad, smooth walks and driveways all leading toward the pito The parking is green with grass as soft as velvet This is being constant l. clipped by lawnmowers that look like small automobiles on which the oper- ator rides They are propelled by gasoline and clip the grass as smooth as the un- ruffled surface of the Potomac.
 Other employees are busy all the time sweeping the walks and gathering up scraps of paper and leaves from the park age You never find anything out of order.
 But the feature of the capitol grounds is the trees and shrubbery. There are 1900 trees and large plants These are regularly pruned and kept in the primest shape A number of tree doctors have just gone over the trees treating them for those ailments to which they are sub jected.
 Gardeners that are expert In their pro- fession are in constant attendance on the shrubs and flower beds about the grounds.
 There are trees, shrubs and flowers from almost every known country of the world. All of them are interesting. Many of them are rare Some are historic. One of the most interesting of these is the mammoth Washington elm that stands near the northeast corner of the Senate wing of the capitol. It is estimated that this tree is more than 250 years old. Some have claimed that the tree was planted by George Washington about the time he helped to plan and lay out the grounds but this is not true. 1t is known to have been a well developed tree when the virgin forest covered the hill.

ADJUSTMENTS
"The Girl in the Train"

There is apparently no end to the girl" shows. "The Girl in the Train is one of the latest contributions to this category and it came to us last night at the Jefferson theatre in the form of charming Viepnese operetta. with plenty of sparksing comedy and melodious moments that finger in the memory
 The merest thread of plot Is suf- ffcient for the purposes of composer and librettist. The 1girl' is capti- vating young actress who occupies on a certain momentous night. the com partment in a continental train orig inally reserved for young man and his wife. The young husband, in the most gallant manner in the world, re- signs his apartment to the young act ress-his wife having been left at homeland spends the night in a smok - ing car. However, the wife has jeal- ous disposition and sues for d divorce. She is granted this divorce and the remainder of the action concerns itself with the reconciliation of the estranged pair and a festive Judges wooing of the alluring actress
 Light and frothy, but very enter taining, "The Girl in the Train" seems to possess most of the requisites of a successful operetta and it was enthu- siastically received at the Jefferson last night. The principal parts were entrusted to capable people, who gave highly pleasing performance. Will liam Kolb. as the leading comedian, acquitted himself in capital style. AL though nearly large enough to be considered a white hope,' he is a graceful dancer His dancing with Miss Steck was heartily encored. Miss Steck, who played the girl did so in a bewitching manner that admirably suited the part. She sang and danced in very winning way, while Miss Violet Seaton as Jana, the wife. sang well and evinced personal charm. Ed win Wilson as the unjustly suspected husband presented that parsonage in acceptable fashion and the remainder of the large company, for the most part contented Themselves with form ing rather picturesque background.
 At least three musical numbers were much above the ordinary and the stag ing was we'll done. In the last act a setting rich in coloring and quaintly charming showed the public square in Makkum, Holland.
