srRATFoRD, LEES BIRTHPLACE.
A Correction as to Its Postal
Facilities.

To the Ddftor Of The Star:
1 wish to call your attention to The
Stars account, last Thursday. of Presi-
dent Wilson's trip to Stratford, the
birthplace of Robert E. Lee. in West
moreland county. Va. particularly to
the statement published that the near
est post office was Fredericksburg,
sixty miles away. The nearest railroad
miles distant. Mail comes there, and
is carried over the county by automo-
biles. and there are two mails a day in
most places In the county.
Stratford is five miles from Montross,
the county seat of Westmoreland,
where mail is delivered in all weathers
twice a day. It is three miles from
Chiltons. another post Office, and about
three miles from Templemans cross
roads. another post Office. Stratford
post Office. one mile from Stratford
gate, is, l think, still in existence
The roads are in fine condition, and I
would advise tourists to take the trip
from Fredericksburg through the his
toric northern neck of Virginia" There
Is much of interest in this section. DR..
Richard Stuart, who is a scion of the
distinguished Stuart family of Virginia.
is a physician greatly beloved by his
people.
Stratford was built of bricks brought
over from England not many years
after the founding of jamestown In
1907, and is in a fine state of preser-
vation There is no wharf at Stratford,
but river boats land at Currioman, or
Nomini, a few miles distant. AS the
county abounds in automobiles and
roads are good, there is much travelling
and traffic through that section. It
has recently been surveyed for rail-
road. and this will be accomplished in
a few years f. S. HUNGERFORD.

CHILDLIKE AND DESPOTIC,
HIS VIEW OF RUSSIA
DR.. Paul II. zinkhan, American Red
Cross Physician, Writes impress
sions Of Cars Realm.
BY Pop.

DR.. Paul H. Zinkhan, American sur
geon with the Red Cross unit in Kief.
Russia, in a letter just received by his
father L. F. Zinkhan. superintendent Of
the Washington Asylum and jail. gives
an interesting word picture Of the Easter
celebration and commentary on the gen
eral character of the people. in part. as
follows:
Easter is a wonderful time In Russia
and 1 have seen sights in the last two
days almost worth coming to Russia alone
to see Easter Is the greatest festival OF
all the year. infinitely more SO than
Christmas, and it finds peculiar express
sion among the people. The Russians
are religious and truly the spirit of Easter
seems to be felt and realized among them.
The common moujik, no matter what con-
dition he may be in: no matter how cold
the night. or how severe the storm. never
passes the church but what he bares his
head and crosses himself
'At IL o'clock We drove out to the
Iarva, the oldest monastery and the
richest in all Russia. Can you imagine
a huge courtyard surrounded by forty
foot wall and immense covered gate
way, groups Of large white buildings all
ablaze with light, with the snow for a
background; the center building the
church. doors open. the inside lighted by
thousand candles, and the chanting of
1.500 priests. In the open courtyard
were thousands of soldiers with uncovered
heads. each bearing lighted candle. To
the right stands the bell tower. a won
derful structure over 200 feet high. At
the stroke of IL the most wonderful
bells in Russia peal forth as you have
never heard bells in America. Thousands
Of voices cry Christ is risen.' and the
r,rfo nd rob
building.
1T was all sight that cannot be told.
Night and the candles. the soldiers and
the priests. the banners. the gold, the
bells-one would think himself seeing
something a thousand years ago. 1 caught
more of the inner spirit Of Russia in a
few minutes last night than six months
have given me. Russia Is not bad simply
childlike and despotic. and wonderfully
powerful"

HERRING SPAWNING STOPPED
Nets Gather Catch That Checks Ad.
vance Up River.

River and bay nets are still gathering
shad for dealers at the wholesale market
Herring have been scarce for several
days. there being practically none on the
market. Yesterdays receipts of shad
were more than 500 fish that sold well, but
at low prices.
Reports from the lower Potomac state
that the catch of herring by the nets
there was fairly good. 1t Is claimed that
these nets caught all the fish. preventing
them coming to their spawning grounds
in the fresh water in the vicinity of this
city.
This method is killing out the fish. it
is contended II some remedy is not
found soon they will be exterminated.
Salt herring. once a cheap article of
food, it is said, will be scarce this sum-
mer and will sell at considerably ad-
vanced prices over those Of last year.

EFFORTS TO FLOAT VESSEL.
Schooner w. ]. Marsh Lying High
on Hard Sand.

Efforts are to be made to float
the schooner w. J. Marsh. blown
ashore during a spring gale in Nomini
creek about six weeks ago, and since
lying high on hard sand. When the
vessel went on shore the tide was un-
usually high and she was carried we'll
out.
Several efforts have recently been
made by the steamer Wakefield to
pull her into deep water. Every effort
has resulted in the breaking of the
hawser.
The owner of the vessel will procure
steel hawser. With this it is be-
lieved the vessel can be dragged into
water deep enough to float her.
The Marsh was formerly owned by
Capt. Steve Davis of Alexandria. She
was recently sold to a Nomini man.
1t is thought she will be fioated with
out being seriously damaged.
The owners of the Baltimore schoon-
er Reeder, carried ashore at Somerset
Beach, on the Virginia side of the Po-
tomac, in the gale that put the Marsh
ashore. will be abandoned by her own
ers. According to reports she is now
being stripped of all articles Of value.
The Reeder is a vessel of thirty-e eight
tons and was built at Baltimore in
1876.

NEW METAL RUBBISH
RECEPTACLES PLANNED
Will Bear Inscriptions Warning
Against Throwing Trash in
Streets or Parks.

New metal trash receptacles to be in
stalled on Washington streets will bear
inscriptions calling attention to the
fact that it is unlawful to throw rub
bish on the parks or highways.
This announcement was made yesterday
following the sending of a letter by
Capt. w. d. A. Anderson, assistant en- :
gineer commissioner, to Mrs. Charlton
M. Clark, treasurer of the clean city
committee, who recently suggested to
the engineer department the advisa-
bility of such an inscription being
placed on the trash boxes.
While 1t is not the intention to i'm
mediately replace existing boxes with
new ones. the department some time
ago decided to install receptacles of a
new design as fast as there is need for
them. These will be painted SO as to
conform with the color of the city's
lamp posts.
According to the letter sent to Mrs.
Clark. the ends of the boxes will bear
the following inscription: Waste
Paper-Street Cleaning Division" The
sides of the boxes will be inscribed as
follows: 1T is against the law to throw
trash on the street. Use this box
Mrs. Clark's Letter.
In her letter to the District authori-
ties requesting that some such letter.
ing be placed on the trash receptacles.
Mrs. Clark said:
Such an inscription would be a con-
slant reminder to the public that the
District provides receptacles where
waste papers can be discarded by per-
sons who find 1t necessary or con-
venient to dispose of such papers while
on the streets or in the parks. The in
scription would also serve as re-
minder that careless persons who are
Indifferent to the cleanliness of the city
streets and who care nothing for the
city beautiful are amenable to arrest
and payment of fine whenever they
fail to avail themselves of these trash
receptacles and litter up the streets or
parks with papers or other unsightly
rubbish"
Clean city leaders expressed gratiflca-
ton yesterday over the proposed action Of
the engineer department, and it is be-
lieved that there will now be more CO.
operation than ever between this or
ganization and the municipal authori-
ties in the direction of keeping the
city's streets free from rubbish

NEW PATROL BOAT SPEEDY.
Maj. Sylvester, With New Engine
Makes Twelve Miles an Hour.

The new harbor police patrol boat
Major Sylvester is able to overhaul
most of the craft that move about the
harbor. The engine recently installed
in the vessel gives her speed in ex-
cess of twelve miles an hour and
makes her particularly efficient in
going after violators of the fisheries
and hunting laws.
To complete the craft and to protect
her machinery from the driving rains
of summer. the Major Sylvester is to
be supplied with an automobile type
of cover. This has been ordered and
is expected to reach here and be in
stalled this week.
Bids for an extra wheel for the Syl-
yester were opened a day or two ago.
