HIGH RATES FOR FREIGHT.
Many Vessels Chartered in Carrie,
Trade With South America

Freight rates now being offered for
vessels to carry coal. lumber and other
cargoes to South America, and to re-
turn with iron ore and other material.

in the history of shipping. and sailing
craft are coming in for large portion
of this business. Recently the shin
Avon was chartered to carry $500. 900
feet of lumber from Boston to Buenos
Aires at $22 a thousand feet, the high
est rate ever paid on lumber from an
American port to Argentina This out
ward trip will pay about half the origi-
nal cost of the ship.
These high freight rates are inducing
many coasting schooner masters to
make trips to Europe and South Amer
lea. Over forty schooners that for
merly carried coal from the Chesa-
peake to New England points have gone
into the South American trade.

A Pantheon Of Patriotism.

10 the E0lt0r OF Inc ct1f.
Is it not feasible to build a monument
to all the signers of our Declaration Of
Independence by popular subscription,
a pantheon of patriotism worthy OF the
deeds of the men of other days?
The capital of the nation is. of course,
the city in which 1t should be erected.
and the patriotic societies could assure
the success of this suggestion.
This temple of patriotism could be of
marble, with the bronze statues OF the
fifty-six immortals, signers of the
Declaration of Independence. placed
therein as tribute of a grateful people
for the priceless gift of this declaration
Of liberty, this Magma Charta of the
new world
Congress, undoubtedly. would donate
a site for the temple. and the commits
sion of fine arts could pass upon the ac-
cepted design or plans.
1t is suggested that each contributor
give 81. no more. no less. and that the
names of the donors be printed and
placed In the corner stone Of the monu-
ment.
A committee of well known men and
women could issue the appeal to the
public for subscriptions. and the banks
Of America could act as repositories of
the fund, thus assuring its safety.
Great Britain has its Westminster
Abbey and France and Rome each has
its Pantheon of Fame. and SO America
should have its temple or pantheon OF
patriotism, that future generations
may look upon 1t and feel and know
that there were giants In those days.

PROGRESS MADE IN PLANS
FOR new VIRGINIA RAILWAY
Proposed Line Will Connect Norfolk
With This City-Ground to Be
Broken July Is.

Representatives of the proposed rail-
road line which is to connect Norfolk with
this city by way Of the Virginia counties
along the western shore of Chesapeake
bay and the counties along the Po-
tomac to a point opposite Riverside,
Nd. where the Potomac will be crossed,
are active in Maryland with surveys.
The line will pass through Charles
county and into Prince Georges on a
line that will carry it near Fort Wash
ington and thence to Shepherds and
this city. Claiming Ward Of Rich
mond is mentioned as in charge of the
enterprise. which, it is said, is backed
by ample capital and the people of
the section of Maryland through which
1t will pass are certain the road will
be built.
Reports received from Charles coun-
ty state that all the right of way has
been secured and that ground for the
new line will be broken July Is. The
building of the railroad will be of
great advantage to the section through
which 1t will pass, particularly the
section in Virginia which has no rail-
road communication with the outside
world and has to depend upon water
transportation for both imports and
exports. Property along the proposed
route of the new line, it is stated, is
already advancing in price.

the Washington-Sout railway, over
Occoquan creek, Va. is completed and
in service, and the old wooden struc-

ing ready connections between the Old

to be the intention of the Washington
Southern railway authorities to replace

A SuHciency.

" It's good to have the dollars,
enough to buy cigars and hand
some linen collars, and maybe
motor cars. It's good to have a
plenty, to keep the wolf away,
and lay up ten or twenty rolls for
: the rainy day. All joys would
be more stable, and life would be
less tough, if man were only able
to quit when there's enough! If
he could view his bundle and
say, "Well, now, I'm done!
Henceforth I'll gayly trundle
around and have some fun! l
have enough piasters to keep me
till croak; so I'll just play, my
masters, and you may watch my
smoke" But no man e'er con-
fesses that he has got enough;
while life lasts he caresses his
pile of yellow stuff. another
year of scratching and I will be
on top; just now I've schemes
a-hatching, and really I can't
stop" And when the year is
ended he still keeps up the fight;
his winnings have been splendid,
but there are more in sight. And
thus he keeps on canning the
Doodle for his heirs; and thus he
keeps on planning to rest in easy
chairs. Death comes, the man in
viting to cross to yonder shore,
and finds him madly fighting for
more, and always more.
