FAMOUS WOMEN OF HISTORY.
QUEEN CHRISTINA OF SWEDEN,
1626-1689-PART II.
Copyright. 1912. by Willis ]. Abbot.)

Christmas stubborn refusal to make d
royal match bred discomfort, both at the
court and among the people. her eS-
trayagance and wanton squanderlng OF
tho property of the crown was another
cause of growing popular dislike she
had singular fancy for creating new
nobles-a tribe without which any state
could get along cheerfully. Within ten
wears she created II counts, as barons
and 4oS lesser mobiles. OF course. each
had to have an estate. There are plenty
of pennless counts and barons now to
sunnlv the American marriage market.
but Christina started her new peers WELL
whatever NAV be the condition of their
descendants. The crown lands were sold
or mortgaged to an amount exceeding an
annual outlay of / 100000 riX dollars. The
rix dollar is a silver coin of varying value:
hut usually equivalent to about 81 III OF
our coinage The higher purchasing
power of money in Christmas time mace .e
this sum equal to almost double what IL

the same parcel OF land several times
that the authorities were sore put 10 II
to determine what was crown property
and what belonged to the newest count.
Abdicates Throne in 1864.
No more uneasy head ever wore a
crown. By 1854 she had positively de-
termined to abdicate. Poetry and ro-
nance had somehow made their way into
that hard and virile mind. She dreamed
of the soft skies of Italy. She pictured
herself with the revenues and dignity OF
a queen, but without a queens duties
and vested with perfect liberty.
Accordingly. in 1864 she abdicated- TO

none of her adherents would lift 1t from
her head, so she herself handed 1t to him
as he knelt before her. Never would he
wear it in her presence. though he was
proclaimed King of Sweden with the
title Of Charles X the same day.
Thus freed, Christina made haste TO
leave her native land. In abdicating she
had not failed to drive sharp bargain
with the government. She was given for
life an allowance of 100000 riX dollars
annually. She was permitted. to take
away all her personal treasures-she gave
wide latitude to the word personal
and was to reside wherever she chose
with all the rights and powers of q
queen over her own household. This lat

I'm the District appropriation act for

1907, Congress provided for the prepara-
ton of plans and estimates for the treat

Massachusetts avenue to the mouth or

Columbia reported pursuant to this d.

1908. and the present bill is so framed as
to include the land necessary to carry
out the recommendations of that report.
The years which have passed since Con-
gress directed the preparation of the re-
port have strongly emphasized the con-
siderations which led Congress to make
that direction. 1t has become apparent
that the public health requires immediate
treatment of the lower valley of Rock
creek to prevent its obstruction and pol
luton, which have already gone to the
point Of serious danger, the valley being
used by the rapidly increasing adjacent
population a general dumping place
for refuse of all kinds.

made more apparent the Importance to

1.-THE development of the botanic gar
dens in other cities. both in this coun-
try and abroad, is showing that the pres
ent site of the government Botanic Gar
den at the foot Of Capitol Hill is alb
surdly inadequate. and that unless the
maintenance of such a garden is to be
abandoned entirely, suitable provision for
it's accommodation should be made. Con-
gress and it's various committees have
from time to time for a good many years
indicated the existence of an understand
ing that such change in the Botanic
Garden must necessarily be made.
"AlI of these three considerations will
be met by the bill now reported.
1.-The report of the District Commits
sioners in 1909, above cited, included sew
eral different methods of treatment of the
valley of Rock creek between the two
existing parks, but the present bill does
not undertake to determine as between
these different methods. 1t simply re-
lates to the acquisition Of the land which
will be necessary for any method of
treatment.
THE amount fixed in the bill is based
upon tabulation of the assessed value
land to be acquired. To that has been
added an amount equal to the average
excess over assessed valuation for which
the government was able to obtain the
land for the Senate and House Office

new site for the departmental buildings

The Swedes were none too well pleased

Prevention of Pollution.

The bill was framed to prevent the pol

Potomac Park with the Geological Park
and Rock Creek Park. and providing a.
new location for the United States BO-
tanic Garden.
To accomplish this end. which would
be one step nearer to the ultimate aim
of making Washington the most wonder
full capital in the world. the bill proposed
a commission to acquire all land along
Rock creek, lying on both sides of the
stream for a reasonable width. "includ-
ing such portion of the creek bed as may
be in private ownership between the Zoo
logical Park and Potomac Park. at a
total cost not 10 exceed $4,000 600"
Somewhere within the boundaries of
the connecting parkway the new botanic
garden would be placed, this to be a
matter for the commission to decide.
This feature of the bill is extremely
popular with many members of the
House.

this bill that II was following a definite

PROSPECT OF ACTION SOON
SENATOR wETM0RE, AUTHOR

With the Lincoln memorial bill passed
by both House and Senate, the House
OF Representatives is in excellent posi-
tion to take prompt action upon the bill
to join Potomac Park and Rock Creek
Park. as outlined in Senator Wetmore's
bill which passed the Senate August .,
1911 Senator Wetmore's bill looks for
ward to the time when the District of
Columbia will be encircled by a chain Of
parks and boulevards. beginning with Po-
tomac Park. running along the line of
Rock creek, crossing the northern bound
airy Of the city and merging with Sol
diers' Home grounds and ending in the
reclaimed banks of the Anacostia river.
There is no reason. it is claimed. why
this bill should not be taken up by the
public buildings and grounds committee
of the House and be given a favorable
report This statement is made after a
conversation with several members of
the committee. An authoritative state
fnent from Representative Sheppard,
chairman of the committee, is lacking
because he is not in the city. but it is
safe to assume that the members could
report this bill out just as well as they
building authorizations for all sorts Of
interior towns on Friday morning. the
regular time for the committees meeting.
No Reason for Delay.
A member of the committee told Star
reporter today that there really was no
reason for the Wetmore bill having rested
in dusty pigeon hole for year and a
half-that is. he said. there Is no fight
against the project to make the fullest
use of the capitals natural beauty. 1t
seems to be, from his viewpoint, simply
a case where the committee has turned
it's attention more to the pork barrel
than to the nations capital. The COM
mittee is deep in the midst of the big
public buildings bill just now. 1t Is said,
and is anxious to believe that 1t cannot
take up any other matters.
