MPORTANT SYSTEM RUNS
THROUGH MOST BEAUTIFUL
SECTIONS OF VIRGINIA.
FINE RESORTS ABOUND
| SOME OF THE MOST NOTED HEALTH
AND PLEASURE RENDEZVOUS
IN THE COUNTRY.

The traveller from Old Point Com
Ohio will see Virginia in all her We
riety and beauty without regard to the
season.
Almost any country presents at
tractive pictures after the frost has
tinted the foliage of the mountains
This Chesapeake and Ohio country,
however, is always interesting. 1t is
land of vast industrial possibili-
ties and historic interest. Down by
the sea they are making millions
growing truck to feed new England.
In Middle Virginia vast improvements
are being made in the cultivation of
grains and verify the Middle Virginia
farmer is at last receiving his reward.
Piedmont. the best fruit growing
country In the world, is more than
keeping pace with the progress Of
other sections. The great valley
and Appalachia have always been
rich. Here are stored the mineral
wealth that has made millions OF dol
lars for the American people and be-
cause Of these wonderful deposits the
United States is independent of all
nations.
This in the kind of country through
which the engines Of the Chesapeake
and Ohio feel their way from the
seaport city to the grain markets OF
the West. Along this road there are
streams OF running water and noun
tain peaks as beautiful as any in the
United State. 1t has become the most
important playground in the United
States. In these mountains presi-
dents fish for bass and play golf. SEN
ators discuss the great questions OF
the day and dance. Men of great
wealth will have what they desire II
ii Is possible to get II, so to supply
these favored sons of fortune CAPT.
talists and good business men have
established chain OF summer re-
sorts all along the Chesapeake and
Ohio. where almost everything that
heart could wish can be had. With
these great resorts there are others OF
less Importance whose rates come in
reach of the ordinary business man.
All OF these resorts are good. All
of them can offer you one or more
mineral waters from the spring on
the hillside or down by the old pop
lar tree. The influence of these re-
sorts upon the whole section OF the
country has has been beneficial.
| Counties have voted large sums for
the Improvement of roads, because
these rich strangers must have their
automobiles and these machines can
not make good time on mountain
dirt roads. The Sulpher Springs
have been the summer home of some
of the greatest Americans. who. worn
out by duties at Washington, have
gained strength and health at the
noted resort in the mountains Of Vir-
ginia.
Among the resorts reached by the
Chesapeake and Ohio are: Old Point.
Ocean View. Buckroe. the Green

Warm Springs. Healing Springs, Nat

1t is understood that the salary
of the position, which has been mere

Much interest has conferred in this

have figured. Mr.. Owen has not been

War ON Bathers.

Determined to stamp out the con-
tinual bathing in the south side OF
James river, the Southside police are
making a special patrol OF that sec
ton OF the shore near the Southern
railway and the pump house. AS a
result ten colored men were arrested
yesterday afternoon by Officer j. w.
Wescott and taken to the police sta
ton on charges OF indecently expos
ing thems Elves in public places.
This section Of the river seems 10
be a great temptation especially TO
the negroes and many complaints
have been made by the residents near
by. The offenders, all of whom be-
long to a tent show which has been
located on Hull street for the past
week. will be brought up before JUS
tice Mourice tomorrow morning.
Four other colored men belonging
to the same show were also arrested
by Officer j. A. Baughan on charges
Of gambling in public places. The
negroes are the worst OF the set be-
longing to the show, and according
to the proprietor, who seems glad to
get rid of them. no attempt will be
made to get them out or to take
care OF them Monday.

Avenqlnq the Birds.

Bird lovers everywhere will rejoice
to note the good and wholesome &C
tivity Of the authorities Of New York
in enforcing the new law forbidding
the use Of the plumage of song birds
and others of our useful feathered
friends. A recent raid eliminated in
large seizures of plumage illegally Of
fered for sale throughout the city. The
seizure includes 900 humming birds,
many gulls, herons and swifts. The
law, which bird lovers succeeded in
having passed at Albany IS months
ago, provides a fine Of $25 for each
piece of plumage offered for sale. 1t
is to be hoped that no marcy will be
shown these violators of a law they
understand perfectly well, and of
whose passage they had all been no
titled. The slaughter OF birds to make
womens adornment is mean enough
In itself, and wien is added the harm
that is done by such killing to the
crops and fruits of all kinds by lessen
ing the number of insect eaters, the
thing is absolutely indefensible.-Bos-

DEFINITE VALUE OF CLOTHES
Writer'S Remarks VIII Call Forth
Criticism Both For and Against
Ideas That He Advocates.

According to Professor Patton of
the University of Pennsylvania, a girl
who spends $40 on hat, although she
earns but IS a week, is more respect
ed than is a girl who wears a dowdy
hat and saves her money for her old
age. The girl who wears the $40
hat will receive more attention than
she Of the dowdy hat, will make more
impression on the opposite sex, and
run a better chance of securing a
life partner who will be able to sup
ply her with numerous $40 hats. The
question of morality does not figure In
this controversy between the profess
sor and the women readers Of the
newspapers. From the millinery view
point, she of the $40 hat Is respect.

clothes and good millinery, and should
be encouraged to save as much az
she can out of her So per in order
to secure them, says Millinery Trade
Review. She of the dowdy hat will
grow stingy as she grows older, and
the rainy day toward which she is
saving will find her a lone occupant

sociations that make a girls life
worth the living. Spend less money
on matinees, theaters, CONNECTIONS and
