on the Chesapeake and the Coast.

The tug Ivanhoe of Philadelphia has
been purchased by Philip Weaver & Son.

boats employed in towing work on Chesa-
peake bay and the Atlantic coast.
The Ivanhoe was built by William
Cramp & Sons at Philadelphia in 1883.
and her hull and Lighthouses are iron,
which accounts for her toughness. She
is now at Philadelphia being overhauled

AUTOMOBILES ON ROOF
BASIS OF OBJECTIONS
Complaint Made That Taking
Them There for Repair Is
Objectionable.

| AS a result of recommendations by
| Representative Ernest w. Roberts OF
Massachusetts and Attorney r. Ross
/ Perry, the District Commissioners may
promulgate a regulation prohibiting the
repairing of automobiles on the roofs of
| buildings and amending the law govern
/ ing the establishment of public garages
| in alleys
Both Representative Roberts and At
| torney Perry appeared at hearing held
at the District building yesterday in pro-
| test against the proposed amendment to
| the building regulations which is design
ed to remove many of the difficulties in
| the way of the establishment of public
garages in alleys. Their suggestions were
referred by the Commissioners to Cor
poration Counsel Thomas and Building
Inspector Norris Hacker.
Under the present law, before a public
garage can be established the consent of
the owners of property within a ninety
foot radius Is required, property used
wholly or in part for business purposes
to be counted as conSenting. The amend
ment recently proposed and approved by
the Commissioners, but which has not
been put into effect, provides that all
private garages and private stables.
within the prescribed area, snail De
counted as conSentinS.
Attorney Perry entered protest
against the going into effect of this
amendment, declaring it would infringe
on the rights of a citizen. Representative
Roberts suggested that the present reg
ulation, which provides that property
used wholly or in part for business pur-
poses be counted as consenting. be
amended so as to include only the exact
area used for business purposes.
Work on Roof Objectionable.
The practice of repairing automobiles
on roofs, he said, should be regulated, as
the noises and gases resulting therefrom
are an annoyance to the public.
The amendment proposed by the Com
missioners concerning the counting of
private stables and private garages as
consenting, came in for Endorsement at
the hands of Ohm B. Daish, who also
was present at the hearing. Mr.. Daish
said that the amendment is just, in view
of the rapid growth of the automobile
business in the District. Alexander III.
Bel and William S. Duvall presented
similar arguments.

ROCKVILLE, Md, February 10, 1872
A suit that is of interest to the large
number of Washingtonions and others
holding property at Washington Grove
this county, has been instituted in the
circuit court here by Mrs. Maude E. Ora
ham against the Washington Grove AS
ISOLATION.
In September of last year Howard A.
Graham, acting for his wife, the pain
tiff, bargained with Robert E. Cooke
secretary of the Washington Grove AS
ISOLATION, for the purchase of 0t a. at
Washington Grove. paying Cooke 1925
Several days later Cooke gave the plain
tiff a certificate setting forth that
.Maude E. Graham is the holder of five
shares of stock of the Washington Grove
Association, which have been located in
lot H. said lot and stock both being held
subject to the conditions of the charter"
According to Graham, Cooke told him
that the certificate was all that was nee
essary.
1t is represented in the bill that Mrs.
Graham knew Of the conversations be-
tween her husband and Cooke and be-
ieved she was getting lease for ninety
nine years, renewable for like term of
years, forever, and that she was to paw
to the association annually nominal
rent, as she believed she had paid full
value for the lot and that she also knew
that most of the lots held in the Grove
were under such leases.

erected a bungalow on the lot, and some
time later applied to building associa-
ton for loan on the property. An ex-
animation Of the land records of the
county, however, disclosed that she had
no record title to the property and the
loan was refused.
The bill asserts that repeated demands
were made upon Samuel H. Walker, pres
ident of the association, for the ueI. ery
of a lease for ninety-nine years, renew
able forever, which were refused on The
ground that certain rules and bylaws
prohibit the execution of such leases it
also being represented by Walker that
1.-The certificate is as good as lease
1t is cOntended by Mrs. Graham in her
bill that it is against the policy of the
registration laws of Maryland that title
TO land should be transcend by any such
paper as the certificate delivered to Mrs
Graham, and it is charged that it is
grossly unjust to her to have to submit
to an agreement to hold the lot without
any record title, when she believed she
was to receive lease.
The bill asks the court to direct that
the agreement may be specifically per-
formed and that the association be de-
creed to convey to Mrs. Graham the lot
by lease for ninety mine years, re-
Movable forever. with the understanding
a nominal sum annually as rent
The bill suggests that even though the
association did not understand it was to
give Mrs. Grahm a lease. the agreement
should be SO reformed as to agree with
Mrs Grahams understanding of it.
Mrs Graham is represented by At
torney Robert B. Peter of Rockville.

FROZEN ALIVE AND REVIVED.

From Tit-iBts.
 Professor Bakhmetieff of Moscow uni versty proved that animals may be frozen alive and then resuscitated without the slightest harm.
 The first experiments were made with cold-blooded animals and insects. But terfies were enclosed in a vessel contain ing air at a temperature of minus 2S de- grees centigrade The body fluids imme- diately froze hard, all vital actions ceased, and in ordinary phraseology. the butterflies were frozen to death.'
 Professor Bakhmetieff soon discovered however, that by slow and careful warm- ing they could be restored to life at any time before the body temperature had fallen below minus 10 degrees centigrade Further tests showed that when the re- suscitation process was begun at body temperature of minus AZ degrees centi- grade recovery was quickest and most complete.
 The next stage was the repetition of the experiment on warm blooded animals and on mammals Two hundred tests in all were made, and nearly all succeeded. lsats were refrigerated and kept dead fro many weeks. and then completely re- stored.

Immortal Margaret

Curiously enough, there are two dramatic versions of the legend of Dr. Faustus which contain elements of greatness. Christopher Marlow wrote the first play of that name which was destined to be preserved for all time in literature. While the Marlowe play is a work of unquestioned genius and reaches at times sublimity of thought and poetic grandeur seldom attained, it does not compare, either in interest or in popularity with the later and better known version of Faust" given to the world by Goethe. In the Marlowe play there is no Margaret. Goethe, by introducing the character of Margaret, achieved masterpiece that will live as long as the written word lasts. Without Margaret Goethe's "Faust" would still be great, with her it is immortal.
 l Of all the famous characters which are the products of the would's litera- ture, perhaps none is more appealing than the gentle Margaret. When we first encounter her she is so artless, so innocent, so free from guile and so modest that we cannot but consider her as a paragon of unaffected wom- anhood. She is not an intellectual beauty, nor the dashing sort. In her perfect simplicity lies the secret of her greatest charm.
 Margaret's love for Faust, even though it works her ruin, only reveals the strength of her devotion and in the hours of her sorrow she never fails to command our sympathy. Before us we have her white and wistful face, in fancy we hear her sweet voice so fraught with anguish. Turning the pages of Goethe's heaven-enkindled verse, perhaps for the hundredth time, the reader cannot withhold his admiration for a character that is in every respect so womanly, so weak and yet so strong in pious faith, SC simple in thought and yet so mighty in the power that has made thrones topple and shaped the course of em- 1 nires-the mower to love.

Lecture Course in the Schools

A fine series of lectures and enter tainments have been planned for the public schools, and all are, free of charge to the patrons of the schools and the general public, except the Lyceum lecture course, for which charge of S2 per season ticket is made to defray the necessary expenses. The board of education has certainly ar ranged programme of educational value. A course of four lectures by specialists will be given at each ot the 10 school centers for the benefit of mothers. These are to be afternoon lectures, and the night entertainments for the general public will be attrac- tive and interesting.
 The Lyceum lecture course will be rounded up by Edward Howard Griggs, who always attracts large au- diences in this city. MT. Griggs will this season discuss Plato, and incl dentally no doubt the other Greek philosophers.
 Other cities have lecture courses, but not one of them will be apt to present better programme than the one at hand for the public schools of this city. Dr. Phillips and the board of education certainly deserve praise in this matter, and the patrons of the public schools will not hesitate to award it when the lectures of this season are completed.

THE MoNTRosE RELICS

From the London Standard.
 The relics of the clothes worn by the Marduess of Montrose at his execution in 1850 were sold for e3lO at Messrs. Sotheby's yesterday. The purchaser was MT. Barrow. These relics. the origin of which has already been described in The Standard, consisted of a pair of silk stockings and a piece of linen trimmed with lace. Accompanying them was cap, which does not seem to have been actually worn on that occasion. All the relics were pieces of fine work of a cream color. Both stockings were faintly stained with blood. which scenes to be due to the fact that the Marquess's body was cut up after execution, and the legs were hewn in two at the knees. The parts of the body were fixed up in various districts of Edinburgh, where the execution oc- cured, in Glasgow, and in other Scottish towns. The lace-trimmed piece of linen is possibly the piece which was used to wrap up Montroses heart when it was removed from the grave in which the trunk of the body lay It has been con- monly called Montrose's handkerchief The relics came from the property of Lord Napier and Ettrick
