NEW HOTEL AND OTHER
IMPROVEMENTS PROJECTED
Active Season in Prospect in Downtown
Realty-Changes in Willard and
Thompson Holdings.

In an announcement of much interest
and Importance in realty. especially in the
business section of the city. it was stated
that a modern building was planned to
take the place of three of the old-time
residences on the west side of 18th street
between T. and F streets northwest. Ac-
cordinS TO the plans adopted by the Ard
more Hotel Company. Franklin C.
jackson, president, the site, which has a
frontage of 40 feet and depth of 1O5
feet, is to be improved by the construc-
ton of q teu-story hotel building.
The company will exercise an option
from the Caleb G.. Willard estate for the
purchase of the property at price Of
ST., zoe. which is at the rate of between
S1J and sic per square foot. The build
ing is to cost about $4,000. The prop
erty comprises the southern end OF the
holdings of the Willard estate. which in
c!Gdes in that square the remainder of
the 18th street frontage to + street and
along the entire stretch OF the block to
18th street and south along the 14th street
front to the building occupied by the De-
partment of Commerce and Labor. This
is the largest single holding of realty in
the business section of the city and it is
further supplemented by large holdings
in the block on the opposite side OF +
street.
Another new building also is planned
for this imin Slate locality since it is
the intention of James NJ. Johnston TO
erect at 1903 + street, in place of re-

modelled residence, modern structure
that will be suitable for business uses.
The extensive holdings of the Th0mp-
son estate at the north corner of 18th and
+ streets, together with additional prop
erty. comprising frontages on F and G
streets and also the entire stretch on the
east side of 18th street from F. toy G
streetA have changed hands, and it is
believed the intention is to improve the
property as a whole. No announcement
has yet been made Of the plans of the
new owners. who purchased the property
last summer through the F. III. Smith
Company. There is equal indefiniteness as
to the intended uses of the Hall of the
Ancients property on the. south side of
New York avenue, or II street, between
18th and 14th streets. The sale of the
property was made known some weeks
ago. and then 1t was stated that the
property was to be used as a terminal of
Baltimore, and also for the Washington-
Virginia railway, which operates lines
between this city and Mount Vernon and
between Washington and Falls Church.
The Pennsylvania Railroad Company
was mentioned as the hacker of the en-
terprise, but as all the parties said to be
interested denied knowledge of such an
undertaking, the credence given to the
story has BEEN shaken. Independent of
denials from alleged purchasers, it is
noted that nothing has been done to
secure authority from Congress for the
use Of the streets, and until that is OBJ
tanned 1t would be impossible to lay rail-
way tracks even such short distance as
from the existing line on New York ave-
nue. to the property in question.

HISTORY OF HARLEQUIN.
Dates Back to Twelfth Century.
First Appearance on Stage.

From the London Globe.
once upon a time Harlequin was a very
popular character, known through Europe.
He was jolly bufoon; a fantastic figure,
In wonderful skintight garments, shining
with every color in the rainbow. In plays,
farces or pantomimes he played a leading
part. Alert, buoyant and gay, with his
batlike sword Of lath ever raised and bent
to form bow between his supple hands,
he danced across innumerable stages, a
figure of fun and fate.
T To the younger generation of our own
time Harlequin has become a very shad-
owy figure. Little 10 known or cared
about his interesting history, his varied
career in many countries and many
tongues. Yet time was when Harlequin
and his merry companions formed the
body" OF pantOmime: they We're the at
traction, and round their delightful antics
the fragile framework Of the pantomime
proper was built. We have changed all
that today and Harlequin appears only
for a few hurried minutes at the flag of
the evening-or not at all.
The origin of Harlequin dates back to
the dim ages of the twelfth century. An
old French Harlequin" sometimes spelt
Heelekin. or Helleq,lin. is found in folk
literature as early As 100, when he had
already become proverbial as a ragamuf-
fin of demoniacal appearance and charac-
ter. The etymology of the word itself is
curious. The modern French is "Arle-
the italian "Arlecchino." An old French
phrase dealing with Harlequin became
quite Saying" in the middle ages-'li
maisnie hierlekin," meaning troop Of
places. riding wildly by night. And of
this phrase the ultimate origin is probably
Teutonic. From the appellation troop OF
demon horsemen" Harlequin was after
ward known as Kindred of Hell or Host
of Hell. The change from Hellequin to
Harlequin was due, so history asserts, to
a mistaken analogy with Charles Quint.
Having made a great name in France,
Harlequin became the rage in Italy. MAX
ing such a lasting impression on the
medieval and renaissance comedy OF
Italy that on his return to France 1t was
generally imagined that he was an Ital-
ian product. From the Italian he re-
turned to the French stage, being import
ed by Mariraux into light comedy.
His various and popular attributes be-
came amalgamated into the latter form

Lane This shows that on his first arrival
Harlequin was much more important than
he Is today.
on the continent Harlequin was in
trusted with heavy speaking parts. but in
this country he has always been mute,
acting his many villainies and conducting
mischievous intrigues in dumb show. In
older English pantomimes he played a

MORE BUSINESS HOUSES
ON CONNECTICUT AVENUE
Plans in Contemplation by,
Several Owners to Replace
Residences With Stores.

During the past week deed was placed
On record by which title to the Emory
residence at the northeast corner of Con-
necticut avenue and 18th street north
west was vested in Robert C.. Wilkins,
whose purchase. of the property was
recently announced. II is understood the
new owner has not yet completed plans
for the Use of the property. but it is
believed the present buildings, includ-
ing large dwelling and a stable, will be
removed and new structure. suitable
for stores, erected on the site.
This is the plan which Mr.. Wilkins is
pursuing in utilizing the property which
ne recently acquired on the opposite side
Of Connecticut avenue, one block to the
south The residence which stood on the
lot adjoining tho northwest corner of
Connecticut avenue and jefferson place
has been pulled down and In its place is
10 be erected a building which will be
used for stores and will. in that respect,
be similar to the treatment of the ad-
joining corner, which was purchased
about a year ago by ID. C. Phillips.
As far as known the purchasers Of the
Mckee property, at the northeast corner
o. Connecticut and Rhode Island ave-
nues. are not contemplating an Immediate
use of the property. but ultimately it is
probable the residence will be removed
and business building erected in it's
place.

NO PROBE OF THE RATES
AT BAL T|MORE HOTELS
House of Delegates Rejects
Resolution Respecting
Convention Prices.

:; BALTIMORE, March 9.-The house Of
delegates at Annapolis last night unanf-
mously accepted an unfavorable report
OF the corporations committee on Speaker
Trippe's bill. which would have placed
the Baltimore hotels under the supervi-
sion OF the public service commission
during the time of the democratic ma
tional convention
The corporations committee decided
upon the unfavorable report in the morn
ing by unanimous vote after hearing
Thursday the defense which two hotel
men made before the city senator's on
the Maloy resolution for legislative in
ouiry Of the rates which they were to
charge during the convention.
When the report came out Speaker
Irippe. who acquiesced in the decision Of
the committee. asked Chairman Dawkins
10 explain, for the benefit Of the house,
the reason for making an unfavorable
report
Mr.. Dawkins said that i'm his opinion
National Secretary Woodson OF Kentucky
was responsible for all the complaints
and declared that he was q chronic
kicker." who. because he could not get
the accommodations he desired, stirred
up the talk OF excessive rates.
Mr.. Dawkins said 1t had been shown
that the highest price to be paid for a
room at the hotels during the convention
was - day. and that at some of the
smaller hotels one could get accommo-
dations as low as 81 day.
Speaker Trippe said he believed the in
PRODUCTION Of the bill. together with the
Maloy resolution. had cleared the atmos-
phere concerning hotel rates, and, as 1t
had accomplished that much. 1t had
served its purpose.
1t Is believed that unless something UNI
expected happens this is the end or the
hotel rate rumpus, SO far as the leStsla-
ture is concerned. 5 :ss.1
