sent to finish their education there
and on their return brought out the
tastes and habits of the mother coun.
try. The governors of Virginia were
from the higher ranks of society, and
maintained a corresponding state. The

Lived in OpuIent Splendor.
A style of living prevailed among
the opulent Virginia families in those
days that has faded away. The houses
were spacious, c~ommodious, liberal in
all their appointments, and fitted to
cope with the free-handed, open
hearted hospitality of the owners.
Nothing was more common thar to see
handsome services of plate, elegant
equipages, and superb carriage horses
imported from England.
The Virginia planters were prone to
leave the care of their estates too much
to their o%verseers, and to think per-
sonal labor a degradation. Washing
ton carried into his rural affairs the
same method, activity, and circumspec-
ton that had distinguished him in mill
tary life. He kept his own accounts,
posted up his books, and balanced
with mercantile exactness. We
have examined them, as well as his
diaries recording his daily occupations,
and his letter-books, containing entries
OF shipments and correspondence
with his London agents. They are
monuments of his business habits. The
products of his estate also became so

Washington, Mount Vernon, was ex-
empted from the customary inspection
in the West India ports. He rose early
often before daybreak in the winter
when the nights were long. On such
occasions he lighted his W fire, and
wrote or read by candlelight. He
breakfasted at seven in summer, at
eight in winter. Immediately after
breakfast he mounted his horse, and
visited those parts.of the estate where
any work was going on. seeing TO

Relaxation in Gayeties.
Occasionally he and Mrs. Washing
ton would pay a visit to Annapolis, at
that time the seat of government of
Maryland, and partake of the gayeties
which prevailed during the session of
the legislature. The society of these
seats of provincial governments was
polite and fashionable, and more ex-
elusive than in these republican days,
being, in a manner, the outposts of the
British aristocracy, where all places
of dignity and profit were secured for
younger % and poor but proud rela-
tives. During the session of the legis-
lature dinners and balls abounded, and
there were occasional attempts at the
atricals. The latter was an amusement
for which Washington always had a
relish, though he never had an oppor-
tunity to crafty it effectually. Neither
was he disinclined to mingle in the
dance; and we remember to have heard
venerable ladies, who had been bellies
in his day, pride themselves on having
had him for a partner, though, they
added he was apt to be a ceremonious
and grave one.

nature, and eminently a man of busi-

CIRCUS PROVES
POPULAR POWER
Big Crowds Pleased With
Barnes Animal Show
Tuesday

That a circus retains its perennial
popularity was evidenced here Tues
day when capacity crowd saw AL G.
Barnes animal circus Tuesday after
noon and the big tent was again COM
fortably filled for the evening per-
Torrance.
True to their advertising and ad-
vance stories and in keeping with all
shows presented by Barnes, the circus
was something different so far as the
ordinary circus goes. There was no
trapeze work, the exhibitions consist
ing entirely of animal performances.
The circus carries large number of
animals, particularly lions, tigers and
trained horses. Lotus, the big hippo,
didn't exactly "shimmie" unless one
could interpret its clothful walk
around the tent as portraying some
thing of the latest dancing concep-
|tions.
Must Also Sing
Opening with "Alice in Jungleland, y
combined animal and musical fea-
ture and continuing until the usual
after show" the performance was a
continuous one of animal demonstra-
tons, pageants and blatant band
music.
Singing, a novel feature for cir.
Gus. met with ready approval, par
ticularly solo by Bessie Harvey
seated in a chariot. Miss Harvey
has a voice of merit far above thai
which one would expect in conjunc'
(tion with a circus. Pigeons, liberated
at opposite ends of the big tent, flock
ed to her chariot to perch upon hel
arms or upon her pony's back ant
added materially to the beauty of thu
performance.
i It was apparent to those who saw
the Barnes show that the usual yer
satility demanded of a star circu
performer which requires the abilit.
