very WELL he said, and l am glad
am sorry that l have already made
this year all the appointments to the
Naval Academy which the law allows
me to make. Indeed. the professors
have written to me that / have ex-
ceeded my allowance by four He
put his hand on my shoulder and
told me to come back and see him
at the same time next year. -Four
or five months after that he was
killed, and so was my ambition to
be a cadet 1 continued at work in
the laboratory at the navy yard until
one day a paymaster asked mo If I
would be a paymaster's yeoman. I
agreed and sailed on the Swatara.
We cruised in the Mediterranean and
one day we put into Alexandria,
Egypt, and took on board a prisoner.
He was John Surratt We brought
him to Washington. You have writ
ten a good deal about Surratts"
WEARS ago-that is, in 1891, and
perhaps in other years-there
there was a rambler writer on The
Star. His articles. published under
the head Roadside Sketches" were
admirable and were signed George
Simmons" The present Rambler has
never met this man, though he thinks
he saw a letter from him to the edi-
tor OF The Star few days ago. Miss
Katherine Patten, assistant at the
Washington Public Library, has COL
lected several of George Simmons
stories and would have them bound
and indexed il she could get the full
series or even a considerable number
of them. At the library the other
day Miss Patten showed me one of
Georges Roadside Sketches" printed
in the Saturday double sheet Star
November IA, 1891. Here is a part
Of it:
You are now in the suburbs of
Good Hope. a pleasantly situated,
growing village. 1t stands high, be-
ing some 800 feet above the level of
the Potomac. Good Hope is an old
settlement, dating back more than a
hundred years. 1t takes it's name
from tho hill on which it is built
The little frame house that stands
back from the road a little west of
the public school is said to be the
oldest building in the place The old
or western end was built nearly
three-fourths of a century ago by
Mr.. Thomas Anderson, a blacksmith,
whose shop stood in front on the
roadside. Mr.. Anderson was the
father of twenty-eight children
nineteen girls and nine boys) by two
wives-fourteen by each. They were
all born in the old house. Mr.. Oden
Prather, a contractor. now occu-
pies it.
Another very old structure, and
one that also claims tho distinction
of being the oldest in the place, is
the Jenkins house. It was known
as Good Hope Tavern in old times
and was kept successfully by tho Ma
gruders, Surratts and Jenkinses, be-
ing a popular resort The house was
occupied by Gen. Sickles as head
quarters for some time in 1861.
Now, moving to tho right on the
Naylor road. the old Wadsworth
house will be noticed on tho left op-
posite the black smiths. Mrs. Sur
ratt, whose name Is now linked with
the Lincoln assassination conspira-
tors and whose mortal ending was so
tragic. was married in this house.
Her maiden name was Jenkins."

Deep-Sea Sounding.

DEEP-sEA sounding is part Of the
- work Of the photographic sur
vey. It is accomplished with a me-
chanical reel instead OF by hand and
a thin piano wire takes the place OF
the lead line. Depth Is measured
by the number of revolutions of the
reel. the diamets- af which is known,
as the lead moves through the wa.s-
If the depth Is great steam is used
to wind in the wire, as the pull
would be too much for a hand reel.
The place of the sinker of the
hand line is taken by a mechanical
device holding a. weight, usually a
1oo-pound ball. which is released at
tho bottom, thus facilitating the in
haul. Sometimes other devices are
used. which bring up samples Of the
deep sea bottom.
When the work is done in sight
of shore position angles are taken
with sextants from small boats
