That road will not only serve
the travel between the junction

OUR NATIONAL CAPITAL.
How Washington Compares With the
Great Centers of Europe.

In paper prepared for the Ma
tional Geographical society Lord
Bryce, former British ambassador
to this country, considers Washing
ton in comparison with the leading
capitals Of the world. After speak
ing warm admiration for the ideal
site of the city-a beautiful amphi-
theater between hills that are rich
with woods-and declaring that the
surroundings of the American cap
itai yield only TO CeastsHtiReple,
with its Bosporus, among the great
capitals of the world for charm of
setting, our friendly critic contrasts
Washington with its rival cities
abroad.
Whereas nature was most lavish
in the artistry with which it mod
eled the site for future Washing
ton," he says, Berlin stands in a
sandy waste, perfectly fiat, with
here and there swampy pond or
lake, and washed by a sluggish
stream. The German capital is
stately. It's streets are broad. They
are bordered by many noble build
ings, but the environs never can be
beautiful because Of an ungracious
nature. Petrograd, the great Rus
sian capital, has but one beauty
that of its splendid river, Neya. Be-
sides this stream, there is but a
fiat, often waterlogged, surrounding
country, here and there dotted with
stagnant pools and swamps, and
stretching into an almost imitless
distance, devoid Of feature.
"The landscapes around Paris are
agreeable, but have nothing at all
striking, nothing nearly so fine in
the lines of their scenery as the
hills that inclose the valley in which
Washington lies and no such charm
of such a still wild forest as Wash
ington affords. Nor is the Seine a
stream which can be compared to
our Potomac. So, too, is the seen
cry of London, Madrid and Vienna
behind that of Washington.
"The Thames, the Wien and Ma
drid's thirsty little streamlet cannot
begin to compare with the beauty
of the broad Potomac. Chief among
the advantages of these foreign cap
itals over Washington is their quail
ity of being ancient, an old age

CAPE HORNS GHOST SHIP.
The Rocky Phantom That Lures Pass
ing Vessels Into Peril.

Mariners sailing from Europe to
the west by way of Cape Horn have
often becl startled by something
that looked like a derelict with the
waters washing over her deck.
The i'll fated Crown of Italy was
standing close to the jagged black
rocks at the entrance of the strait
Of LIE Marie when she sighted what
seemed to be waterlogged bark
drifting on the rocks Of the strait.
Presently the phantom ship disap-
peared, and soon afterward the
Grown of Italy herself went fast
ashore and was broken up by the
waves.
About seven years ago the Nor
wegian bark Servia got into Seat
tle with tale of the "ghost ship
that almost exactly correspondent
with that told by the crew of the
Crown Of Italy.
The numerous reports of dere-
llct mat appeared and disappeared
like a phantom led the government
OF Argentina to look into the mat
Ter. A tender went out from the
nearby lighthouse to make an in
vestigation. The apparition was
found to be caused by a strange
freak of nature. Among the black,
jagged rocks that lined both sides
Of the strait of LIE Marie there was
one that under certain atmospher-
&c conditions bore a curious resem-
blance to ship. The formation of
the rock and the shadows that the
other rocks cast on it combined to
produce the effect of bark run
ming under short sail.
