Burnside conducted most of his oper-
atoms against the Confederates in
Fredericksburg and the low range OF
hills behind the town. After more than
a century of transfers and subdivision
the home seat came into possession OF
F. H. Corson, who erected house on
the foundation Of the old Washington
house. The site Of the older house
was cleared, the cellar re-excavated
and the stone cellar walls used as a
foundation. In digging out the old eel
lar large quantities Of pottery. house

like were found. A few years ago the
property came into possession OF the
present owner, ]. B. Colbert. who con-

One of the original Washington
houses is sill standing on the farm al

Economical Lighting Plants Can 81
Based on II, With Gasoline
Motors to Help.

There has never been a time when
the forces of nature were subjected
to such searching scrutiny to deter,
mine their availability for the devel-
opment Of mechanical power az they
receive at present. This arises main
ly from the progressive use Of cleo
tricity.
Among other things It is believed
that the wind can be utilized to far
greater extent than IN thu past, espey
cially for electrical lighting. With this
object in view the average state Of
the wind has been Investigated In Eng
land. 1t is found that for approx.
nately half the time the mean wind
velocity Is ten miles an hour, and for
about one-third of the time fifteen
miles. In the winter the average IN
higher. The great difficulty arises
from the calm periods. which may
last days. or oven a week. but It has
been shown that economical lighting
plants can be based upon wind power
by providing gasoline motors to take
up the work whenever the wind fails.

FEW WITHOUT STAGE FRIGHT
Specialist In Nervous Diseases Gives
Scientific Analysis of Much
Dreaded lnfliction.

Among nervous diseases may be In
cluded stage fright A physician. VINO
is a specialist in the former, has just
been lecturing about the latter. he
describes some acute forms of what
French actors call ''trac," one of the
worst forms of which produce de-
Walton Of the mouth which it Is i'm
possible to overcome"
The sufferers talk out one side OF
their mouths, and all their efforts to
rid themselves of this nervous affec-
ton are fruitiess." Their only remedy,
one imagines, is to give up acting. The
lecturer quoted also gives "twitching
of the eye and feverish palsy OF the
hands" as being among the results OF
stage fright.
At the dress rehearsal of play by
Sardou an actress violently scratched
the hands of the actor with whom she
was playing, saying, How nervous
feel"
She must have got over her nervous
ness since then, for the actress was
Mile Blanche Dufresne, who for many
years has acted with Nine. Sarah
Rernhardt.
Two tenors are cited who have
splendid voices at rehearsals, but
could not get note out on first nights
J an unfortunate predicament for
singers-and had to leave the stage.
Even the famous Got knew the "trac. "
The lecturer remembered his having
had total lapse of memory during the
whole of an act of new play at the
Theatre Francois. But, while he could
not recollect single word of the dia
logue, and took every word he spoke
from the prompter, who gave him the
text, he could fill in an attitude and
gesture perfectly.
But the worst case on record OF stage
or platform fright was that OF lee
turer of bygone days. or an intending
lecturer, Alfred Assolant. He arrived.

the corner and lifted up a fragrant
glove. 1t was one of Lefty Lanes
gloves which Dan had found in the
motor and taken possession Of. The
young man had gone to his dressing
room and begun running his bath, and
Ruggles, laying the glove on the table.

duchess, all right"
But when Dan came back into the
room later in his dressing gown for
breakfast, Ruggles said:
You'll have to send her back her
glove, Dannie."
,, At the sight of it beside the break

picked up the fragrant object.
That's all right; I'll take care Of
it."

Ruggles saw he had not returned in

up his part Of the business Just as he
had laid it out for himself to Lord
Galorey Its up to me now: I'll have
to take care OF the actress, and I'm

lently shaken by the shoulder and a
mans voice called him as he opened
his eyes and looked into Ruggles'
face.
Gee Whitaker" Ruggles ex-
claimed. You are one of the seven
sleepers! I've been here something
like seventeen minutes, whistling and
making all kinds of barnyard noises"
AS Dan welcomed him, rubbing the
sleep from his eyes, Ruggles told him
that he had come over ''the pond"
just for the wedding.
There isn't going to be any we'd
ding, Josh! Got out of all that last
night"
Ruggles had the breakfast card in
his hand, which the waiter had
brought in, and Dan, taking it from
his friend. ordered big breakfast.
I'm as hungry as the dickens, Rug,
and l guess you are, too"
What was the matter with the
duchess?" Ruggles asked. Were you
too young for her. or not rich
enough?"
Significantly the boy answered.:
"One too many, JOSH" and Ruggles
