Big Money Maker.

The Berryville and Charles Town
pike, which has passed from the con-
troll of Clarke county into the hands
of the State Highway Commission and
upon which tollgates we're abolished
last week, was big money-baker.
Over $1,000 remains in the county
treasury from the unexpended toll COL
lections. During the month of August
over S1,4OO was collected. This month
was the biggest in the history of the
pike. During the past three or four
Sundays, the transient automobile
traffic was SO heavy that the collec-
tions totalled over 500. Mr.. ]. B.
Cornwell, who had charge of the toll
gate, said the constant stream OF
transient cars on Sundays kept him so
busy that he is glad the tolls are off,
and he is relieved of the job. Cars,
paying toll, passed through the gate on
an average Of every two minutes on
Sundays. These did not include cars
whose owners took the gate by the
year. The collections last year
went over $1,000, and Mr.. Cornwell
says at the present rate the collec-
tons would have gone over $4,000 this
year.
Four-ifths of the $1,000 remaining
in the roads treasury will be devoted
to improving the Summit Point pike.
The other fifth will be used elsewhere
in the county. Chairman Hugh Pierce
made a fight at the Supervisors meet
ing Monday to have all the $4,000 de-
voted to the Summit Point pike, but
opposition forced him to a compromise
on four-ffths. The people on the
Summit Point branch of the pike have
been heavy toll-payers and have pa
tiently submitted to the expenditure
of seven-eights of $4,000, the amount
of toll collections in the past five years,
on the Charles Town end of the pike
Now that the State will maintain the
Charles Town branch the Long Marsh
residents who use the Summit Point
pike, held that the amount remaining
in the treasury should be used on
their branch.

Colonel Robert E. Lee, grandson of
General Robert e. Lee, commander in
chief of the Confederate armies, died
last week a, Virginia College, Roanoke,
va, following an illness of many
months. He was So years old. Col
Lee became i'll last March and went to
Hot Springs, Va, to regain his health.
He fingered between life and death
for days and then rallied sufficiently
to be brought to Roanoke in a private
car. Since June he and Mrs. Lee have
been visiting at Virginia College. At
one time his recovery seemed prob
able, but due to the condition Of his
health little hope was entertained
during the past month. Heart trouble
was given as the cause of his death.
For many years Colonel and Mrs.
Lee spent their summer at Virginia
College. He was a son of the late
Gen. W. H. F. Lee and was born in
Petersburg, Va. After his graduation
from the Episcopal High School at
Alexandria he entered and graduated
from Washington and Zee University,
at Lexington.
He studied law 1 took UP the

years. He was n.-mSer of the Viz
ginia Legislature 8, eral terms, hav-
ing been sent from Ravensworth, the
old Lee home in Fairfax county. Gov
Andrew ]. Montague commissioned
him colonel on his staff.
At the time of h teath he was n
member of the boar OF trustees of
both Washington and Lee University
and the Episcopal High School, Col
onel Lee made his home at Ravens
worth. He lived there until his mar
rage in 1910 to Mary Middleton
Pinckney, of Charleston, S. c. Since
that time the couple have lived in
Washington. He was connected with
many civic and social organizations
He was a member of the Sons of Con-
federate Veterans.
The funeral was held last Saturday
morning in the Episcopal Church at
Lexington and interment was made in
the Lee mausoleum at Washington and
Lee University.
Besides his widow he is survived by
his mother and one brother, DR..
George Boiling Lee, of New York.
His death leaves DR.. Lee as the only
male descendant of the Confederate
cheftain.

Big Power Plant at Williamson,

construction of a new steam power
plant to be built al Williamson,

operation BY July LIST, 1923. Work
mas already been started.
This plant will be the starting Of
one of the largest steam operated
plants in this section OF the country
and will be built in such a way that il
can be extended to any capacity. and
at the same time retain full economic
operations. The building will be of
steel frame, concrete foundation. and
will be built so as not to be affected
by any flood conditions of the river.
not even by a flood such as occurred
in the spring of 1889.
The initial installation of the nlant
will comprise generating capacity Of
$1,000 horse power, with ample re-
serve boiler capacity of $4,000 horse
power, boilers to be designed to oper-
ate at $50 pounds pressure and $50
degrees super-heat The latest design
OF mechanical stokers, economizers
forced and reduced draft, and Marine
type boilers will be installed. The
plant will be equipped with conden-
sers, with auxiliary drives, both steam
and electric driven. Coal and ash
handling equipment will be the most
modern and efficient design.
The initial building will be approxi-
mately $50 $50 feet, equipped with
electric overhead travelling bridge
crane, 40-ton capacity, electrically
driven. A large intake tunnel will be
built to the Potomac river, several
hundred feet from the site of the
plant, for condensing water. The in
take will be sufficiently large to take
care of three or four times the pres
ent capacity Of the plant
With this installation there will be
an outdoor substation automatically
operated and switchboard in the pow
er plant, and power transmission lines
will be built TO connect with the pres
-ent transmission system of the COM
pany, and will afford duplicate lines
and service for all the properties of
the company in the four States. This
plant will also be tied in with the
proposed hydro-plant on the Cacapon
river, and will assure ample power
for all present and future industries
in the territory serviced by the Poto-
mac Public Service Company and its
subsidiary companies.
This project will be a great boom to
the industries and domestic consum-
ers in this territory and should slim
ulate the location of factories, quar-
ries, textile, railroad machinery manu-
factories, etc, in all the communities
served.
