Mile-a-Day Schedule.

A. L. Vuillmot, who recently COM
pleted hike from this city to San
Francisco and return chained TO a
wheelbarrow. is going to do it again. y
But this time there will be no bar
row. and he is pledged to visit afoot
every state capital in the United States
in a year from June 10, when he IS
scheduled to leave here.
Mr.. Vuillmot said last night that
he expected to make the trip in nine
months. The conditions of his trip
require that he is not to beg, borrow,
steal or ride.
He hopes to make seventy miles a
day, dec airing he did fifty miles or
better per day when cnalned to the
wheelbarrow, and that he ought to
be able to do. at least twenty miles
more a day without that incunibrance.

Washingtonians who have been
visiting other cities where statues OF
the intrepid Maid of Orleans have been
erected feel a grievance that the sur
roundings of the one placed on the
heights OF 18th street present bare
and neglected appearance. New York
placed Joan Of Arc on splendid site
on Riverside drive. and at present
a glory of Martha Washington and EN-
press OF China roses Chambers over the
background of rocks. A careful plant
tractive all through the year and a
fringe of drawf azaleas Is now adding
to the quiet beauty of the spot. Phila-
delphia set up the Maid of Orleans in
the second year of the world war In a
charming angle of the Schuylkill river
at the entrance Of Fairmount Park. As
this city is famous even in Europe for
its old and well tended gardens. its
marvellous park paintings and the artis-
tic perfection which envelops its civic
horticulture, the environment of the
Joan Of Arc statue may well be taken
as an exemplar. The statue is in a
circle, but trianglar plot extends
north and south from It, and this is
thickly planted with the royal flower
of the Bourbons. the fieur des lis, which
the gallant maid wore on her armor as
she rode in the front ranks OF the
army which was fighting for the Bour-
bon king. Iris. as the lovely flower Is
more fanliliarly known now, has under
modern cultivation reached a high de-
gree of perfection and when different
varieties are planted the blooming sea-
son may be extended over three
months. In the circle are arranged
bushes OF La France roses and few
of the climbing kind are about the base
of the statue.

Of children's markets, held on Satur-

such an enterprise has been talked of,
but until now the project has lacked
