Improvement OF LAWNS
URGED BY ASSOCIATION
West End Citizens Offer Induce
ments-District Suffrage
Discussed.

The West End Association, at its meet
ing last night. adopted resolutions urg-
ing the citizens to help beautify the city
by improving their parkings and lawns.
In letter which was read Morris Hahn
proposed that the association hold COM
petitions and give prizes for the best
lawns and flower gardens.
The members Of the Senate and House
OF Representatives were rendered thanks
in another resolution adopted for passing
the law for the improvement Of the lower
valley Of Rock creek.
A resolution indorsing the clean city
movement was referred to the commit
tee on sanitary matters with orders to re-
port at the next meeting.
Urge Identification of Parking.
Members Of the association were
strongly urged to do everything within
their power to have the lawns and park
ings in the section improved and made
more beautiful. Some amusement was
caused by the suggestion from one mem
Der that the parents of the section ne
urged to keep their children from stealing
flowers from the lawns of others who
had taken trouble to raise flowers. This
was declared to be a police matter and
no action was taken.
Confidence in Maj Sylvester for his ad-
ministration OF the police department was
voted by the association, particularly for
his handling of the Inauguration crowds.
There was considerable discussion Of
the question of suffrage in the District.
Randall II. Webb read letter from ex-
Commissioner Henry B. F. Macfarland.
In which the latter pointed out that If
suffrage should again come to the Dis
trict there would be fighting over ma
tional issues with the result that the
District would get less attention at the
hands of Congress than it does at the
present time. Mr.. Macfarland declared
that the only way to secure aid from
Congress was by united effort.

Doesn't Need the Money.

Mr.. Davis says he doesn't need the 500,
90. and even if he did he would not take
advantage of the poor old ex-bani.er. of
Russia. He wonders, however, how 1T n
that Senior Siena manages to pick up all
the American mailing lists he works on,
and whatever gave the aged prisoner the
idea that Mr.. Davis of Washington might
belong in the sucker class.

Arguments Heard.

Mr.. Webb also opposed suffrage and
pointed out some of the difficulties en-
countered when the District did have suf-
frage.
DR.. ]. d. Robinson declared that. while
he didn't exactly want suffrage in the
District, he thought Congress should be
asked to work out some plan whereby
the citizens here would have some say in
its municipal affairs. DIR. Thomas f.
Will was permitted to address the asso-
citation on this question and he presented
suffrage arguments.
Frederic May, Louis Ring and Clifford

YOUTHS THRONG TO MUSEUM
Famous London Collection Is a Mag
net for the Youngsters of the
Poorer Class.

The British Museum, which is at
tracing an unusually large number OF
visitors these days, Is always much
loved by the poorest children Of the
neighborhood. They come in shabby
little groups and stray wonderingly
through the long Egyptian gallery,
sometimes finding their way to for
hidden country, the basement of the
ANTIQUES, where they evidently take
a puzzled interest in the chilly fig
ures.
But they prefer the mummy-roem,
with it's painted cases and the odd
little animals from Egyptian tombs,
and, above all, they enjoy themselves
in the chronological section, with its
savage-weapons, hideous, lifelike mod
els and strange native costumes. The
boys especially may often be seen rapt
in admiration before the red Indian
case with its array Of eagle feathers
worn by famous braves. The attend
ants look with very kindly eyes on
these poverty-stricken but admirably
behaved little people, realizing how
much it means to them to have such
a dry and warm resort.
But while it interests the visitors,
too, to notice some tattered, white
faced child gazing up at goodyear
old Pharaoh, it is a humiliating
thought that London can show old
Pharaoh such a hapless product OF
centuries. Manchester Guardian.

A GREAT B0MBARDMENT

Did the citizen of Monterey think
they heard the bombardment OF
Constantinople Tuesday 9Th, if so
they were mistaken for it was only
the bombardment and fall of con-
slant sheep eat'r. Sunday, '..> l!h
Burton Hook saw Il large bear
within one hundred and fifty yards
of G. l.. Siple's residence and Mon
day night it killed and ate a wnole
lamb and all of sheep except part
of the hide and two legs from the
knees down, within two hundred
yard of G. W. Hooks residence.
The remains of the sheep Was not
found until noon then the tele-
phone was brought into play Il
crowd of thirty eager bear hunters
was soon assembled determined to
kill that bear before he died Ct IN
digestion.
They decided to drive the Big
Ridge and stan on the Cowpasture
The drive was nearly completed
when the dogs bayed the bear in a
laurel thicket and in a short time
James IRVINE saw the bear, which
Immediately got it in the neck, y
which partially severed its wind
p'pe, The bear then went by Bur-
ton Hook who proceeded to blow
the top out of the trees. The chase
was then on, but the dogs stayed
we'll behind for they had great re-
spect for bear with such healthy
appetite. The chase led up the
mountain and across the South
Fork valley half mile below G. L.
Siple's while the firing grew heavier
and the last three hundred yards of
the chase resembled a pitched
battle. Grover Siple, Samuel Price
and John Leach put on the finish
ing touches to the time Of 9, s and
10 respectively, and it is 20 be re-
GREETED that Siple and Price ran
out of ammunition.
The bear hide (unstretched)
measured six feet across the shout,

the tip Of the nose to the tip of the
tail. Now, Mr.. Editor, it may be
necessary for you to explain to your
readers how long BEARS tail is.

ROMAN. ROAD BUILT TO LAST
Parts of Magnificent MarbIe-Paved
Highway Across Macedonia Are
Still Passable as in Days Past.

We do not know how Neapolis look.
ed in Paul's time, though it must have
been place of some considerable i'm
portance, since the great Egnatian
Way, splendid road paved with mar
BILE, and which stretched all the way
from Rome to this outermost boun-
dairy of Macedonia, ended here. This
road, traversing the whole southern
part of Italy, from the Mediterranean
to Brindisi on the Adriatic, began
again after the interruption, of the
Adriatic at Durazzo; then it went
across the breadth of Macedonia to
Salonica, Apollonia, Amphipolis, Phil
ippi and Neapolis. With all our mod
ern pride in road building, since time
began there has perhaps never been
constructed such magnificent high
way as this.
| After passing some large modern to-
bacco warehouses and some fine homes
belonging to the tobacco magnates, we
came to the edge of the city and faced
a tremendous rock hill, seemingly
| composed of solid granite, on which
not blade of grass or the smallest
shrub could find lodgment. Black and
| forb1dding is this great mass of rock,
like the "black hills" Of Montenegro.
! Beside the modern road, and not more
than fifty yards away in many places,
the old Roman road was plainly Visl-
BILE. 1t Is now so out of repair as to
be impossible, and yet in some small
stretches it is as smooth and as well
paved as in the ancient days, though
saw none of the marble slabs with
which it is said to have been covered.
I descended from our ancient chariot
and walked upon some of these stones
of the old road.-Christian Herald.
