new tomb for himself and family
and those of the family already buried
In the old vault. The old tomb was

of hill which was subject TO land

not only the spot, but also dimensions

buried together within the vault, out
of sight, while the bodies of General
and Mrs. Washington are in stone cof

view between the slender bars of a
grated iron doorway. 1t is for this
reason that the most ilustrious of our

Britons Are Below Standard.

NEW YORK. March li.-"England's

thority on athletics In Great Britain. in a
letter received. "All indications point to
a repetition of an American victory at
Stockholm this year and a further de-
cadence through inferior showing of the
British athletes.
''Our athletes eligible this year are poor
in comparison with the team from over
the water and are not as efficiently train
ed. The time of our best men for various
events does not bear comparison with
that OF the runners from the states.
Not only is the English team deficient

but In the long-distance races II has a

Cashion started by walking Neff. Carter
sacrificed and then Cashion walked Lille.
He struck out Fitchett, however. but Nc
CURE worked the hit and run, making a
single, and Men scored.
In the third the Nationals forged to the
front After Morgan had been retired on
a fly to left, Henry walked and Cashion
singled. Both scored when Milan tore of
a triple to center, and he himself tailed
on Schaefer's fly to right. of which Lille
made splendid catch.
The score was tied in the last half Of
this inning, when the Collegians scored
twice. With one out Cashion walked Nc
Morris and Douglas. McGuire's out
moved them up and they scored when
Carter singled. In the fourth Fitchett
hit for two bases as a starter. MCGUIRE

There is nothing which helps to put
ball players in condition like playing the
