Washington's Roof Garden.

At last the capital has reached
roof garden stage as to hotel bar
DUETS. 1t seemed that every large
city in the union had adopted the in
rovation before Washington. This
summer a down town hotel has put
a roof garden over its entire area.
ABOUT an acre, and it is equipped ar
t!stlcally and with every modern d.
vice for comfort. Eight stories above
pennsylvania avenue, the diner looks
over the city and down the river al
most to the old town of Alexandria.
After dark the tu inkling lights CT the
speedway, and those marking the
Mckinley Memorial bridge froie
Washington into Virginia add to the
enchantment. This roof garden is
proving the solace of statesmen ana
diplomats kept here by the dragging
sessions Of congress. The Mexican
Ambassador entertained a distin-
guished company on Thursday last.
