Injured at Burlington.

BURLINGTON, May 17.-Harold A.
Gardyne. manager of the University of
Vermont baseball team, and Edward
l.. Allen, son of Col H. w. Allen, were
the victims late Saturday night of an
automobile accident, when their ma
chine in the darkness crashed into II
stone culvert on North aveupe, throw
ing both men out and inflicting severe
injuries.
The automobile in some manner got
into a ditch and before the highway
was regained struck the culvert with
great force.
Allen, who was driving, was hurled
to the roadbed with such violence that
three ribs were broken. Gardyne struck
head first and received severe injuries
to the jaw. breaking several teeth.
The men were brought to a local
sanitorium. They will probably recov-
er, although it is feared that Allen
may develop internal injuries. The car
was wrecked.

KARLSRUHE COMING.
Rumor That German Cruiser Is Ap-
preaching Hampton Roads.

NORFOLK, Va, May II. 49, Reports
that the German protected cruiser
Karlsruhe was coming up the coast,
with Hampton Roads as her destina-
ton, circulated early yesterday, were
followed in the afternoon by further
rumors that the Karlsruhe had passed
in the capes. The report caused a stir
local port officials, at the navy
yard, and in shipping circles.
While the arrival of the Karlsruhe
is yet to be accurately chronicled, re-
ports continue to be received here that
she has been seen in the Azores, and
even further north. These rumors are
credited to some extent because similar
reports preceded the arrival of the
Prinz Eitel Friedrich and the Kron-
prinz Wilhelm, which are interned
here
Tt is asserted here that the Karls-
ruhe is short Of ammunition, coal, and
food supplies and must seek port
The belief here is that she intends tt

Circumstantial reports have been re
ceived from West Indian sources that
the Karlsruhe was wrecked on an is
land and afterward destroyed by tn,
crew. These stories have been so def
mite as to leave little doubt that tn,
raider is no more.

[THE FILTHY FLY---
 ] A PUBLIC MENACE

No. XIX.
 THE DUTY OF HOUSEKEEPER.
 The grocer may do his duty and de- liver absolutely uncontaminated goods to the home. Here the housekeeper's responsibility begins. She should see that her kitchen and diningroom are absolutely flyless ;at least that much of the house should be screened. The free use of the swatter, especially if begun now on the over-winter fly, will solve the problem. Of course general cleanliness is specific opposition to the fly; he will not board where the fare is not good.
 It is also the duty of the housekeep- CT to watch the grocery. In the Cleve- land campaign they would count flies in place of business, say for five minutes, then fill out card with the number counted and send it to. the proprietor. The housekeeper should make frequent visits to the shops and assist the grocer and meat man in protecting our health.

The Washington Monument

The Washington Monument is the
most remarkable and beautiful me-
mortal ever erected by any nation to
the greatest of it's heroes. 1t is diff
cult to convey in photograph any
idea of the grace and majesty with
which the great spire of white stone
shoots up to Heaven, but the illustra-
ton here reproduced gives some no
tion of its immense size. Only the
first few feet of the base are shown,
yet the mere foundations of the struc-
ture dwarf the men and women sit
ting beneath it as they would be
dwarfed by some tall building. If
the photograph had included any con-
siderable portion of the monument
the human beings would have
dwindled to a mere tiny blur at it's
foot.
The Monument is in many ways the
most characteristic structure of the
national capital. Like fthe familiar
dome of the Capitol building, it is
known from end to end of the United
States through countless post cards,
cartoons, calendars and illustrations.
Wherever you go in Washington, the
towering spire is still apparently at
your shoulder. 1t is visible for miles
in all directions, from the railway
tracks that lead to the west, from the
upper reaches of the Potomac river.
At night its peaked top is illuminated
by the glare of q searcnnght, and
hangs over the city like shaft of
sill err
From the monuments top, all
Washington lies at your feet The
long ascent in an elevator that goes
up and up, a smooth ana seemingly
endless climb, gives a vivid idea of
its great height to the observer, even
before he looks out of one of the
narrow windows. The view is like
the view from an aeroplane. The
vivid sheen of the White House in it's
clump of green trees. the massive
bulk of the War, State and Navy
building, all the crowded irregular
roofs of a great city spread out far
below like child's toy village.
If you would like to know all the
interesting things about the govern
mcnt you should read the two great
patriotic books THE American Gov
ernment," and THE Panama Canal"
both by Frederic j. Haskin. See the
