Secret of Roman Military Strength.

from the Engineering Md&azne.
The Roman military unit was the legion
Of from 1900 to 5000 men, divided into
ten cohorts. The strength of Roman arms
lay in three things. The first OF these
was careful selection of men from
among such citizens as were practiced In
arms. The second dependence was upon
discipline. Warlike youths accustomed
themselves to the use OF arms "a recre-
alton, that IL was said that their
sports were battles without bioodshed.
and their battles bloody sports. The third
point was the prompt adoption of all i'm
provements suggested by the experience
Of foreign wars. The Roman legion
was practically never DEFEATED so long
these three principles remained i'm force.
The secret of its strength was the spirit
of the men who. in their perfect disci-
pline, expressed their glory i'm Rome, and
their confidence in themselves.
The most brilliant achievements Of this
military instrument We're attained by
Caesar. who aroused the devotion Of his
troops to the highest point, by making
common cause with them In the pursuit
Of valor. AS Plutarch says. "He showed
them that he did not heap up wealth from
the wars for his own luxury. or the graft
flying of his private pleasures. but that all
he received was but a public fund.- laid
by for the reward and encouragement OF
yalor'

LARGE RESIDENCE SOLD.
Home of Former Senator Foraker
Bought by Mrs. Blodgett.

Two realty transactions reported during
the week were of interest, both on ac-
count of the consideration and also be-
cause of the character of the properties.
one being in the residential section of
the city and the other located in the CEN
trail business section. In both instances
is shown the higher level OF prices which
has been attained in recent years, and
which is constantly changing, with a
tendency on the whole, that is upward.
During the week announcement was
made of the sale of the residence of
former Senator Foraker, at the northwest
corner of 10th and p streets northwest.
The house belongs to the class of large
residences with basement entrance and
a principal story on the second floor. 1t
has a generous frontage. as well as other
provisions for a rather elaborate mode
of living. and has the advantage of
standing entirely detached. owing to the
fact that the lot is not covered by the
house. leaving d lawn space on one side.
William Corcoran Hill. who represents
Mrs Blodgett. the purchaser of the
house, does not feel at liberty to disclose
the consideration. but it is said to be
one of the largest ever paid In this city
for residence.

Steam Shovels at Work.

For some weeks now two steam shovels
have been putting away inside the board
fence and getting lower and lower down
into the earth, until it seemed impos-
sible to construct any form of inclined
plane of such a pitch that the struggling
teams could bring to the surface of the
ground the heavy loads of eXcavated
earth. But the raised ways for the teams
have gradually heightened out as the hole
became deeper, and that there is a
line of wagons waiting to come under
the scoops of the two shovels as they
bite their way into the banks of earth
When they get through the sides of this
hole in the ground will be nearly fifty
feet deep, and. in fact, providing room
for three stories under ground. There
will be eight stories above, and. with
the great area of each floor, the building
will be one of the large hotels of the
country.

FOUNDATION
THREE STORIES DEEP
Mammoth Hole in the Ground
Will Go to 40 or so Feet Be-
low New Hotels Street.

The digging of the foundation place for
the new Arlington Hotel building, now
going on, illustrates what is true of all
buildings of this type-that much of the
important constructive work is really
placed under ground. A glimpse through
the gates in the high fence that now sur
rounds the nearly one and one-half acres
that constitute this great building site
will go far to establish the truth of such
statement. Even if it is only lay
mind back of the eyes that get perhaps
only a fleeing glance at the deep hole
that now represents the foundation OF
this million-and-a-ha structure, still
one receives the impression that good
deal Of money is being spent as We'll as
great care being exercised in placing on
sure and stable footings the foundation
walls
