ments at Quarantine.

That the work of probing the bottom
of the Patapsco river in the vicinity of
Quarantine Station foreshadows ex-
tensive developments by the Pennsyl-
vania railroad. is the statement of an
interest close to the company.
The opinion seems to prevail in cir
cles where the actions of the Pennsyl-
vania are watched closely, that con-
crete tubes will be laid under both the
Patapsco and Potomac rivers. The work
of probing the Patapsco will doubtless
be followed by probing the Potomac
with a view to putting tubes under
one or both of the rivers.
Il am convinced" said a man who
evidently has considerable knowledge Of
the cOmpanys expansion policies that
the Pennsylvania contemplates a new
line which will leave the present Fred
ericksburg, Richmond and Potomac
road at Aqua Creek. Va. This road is
South, and is used jointly by the Penn
sylvania and other roads.
From Aqua Creek I believe they in

under the Patapsco near Baltimore.

And all the men and women merely

His acts being seven ages. At first

Mewling and puking in the nurses

Unwillingly to school. And then the

Full of strange oaths and bearded like

Jealous in honor, sudden and quick in

Seeking the bubble reputation

then the justice,
In fair round belly with good capon
lined,
With eyes severe and beard of formal
cut,
Full of wise saws and modern instances;
And so he plays his part. The sixth

With spectacle on nose and pouch on
