Today in
Washington History
BIZ DONALD A. CRAIG.

October IS, 1592.-The corner stone
Of the President House In the new Fed
eral Metropolis on the Potomac River
was laid today.
AS usual at such functions, there was
q procession. The Commissioners Of the
District headed It and the members of
the Masonic lodges and the citizens
generally Of washington City and
Georgetown and some from Alexandria
took part In the exercises.
The date of the laying of the corner
stone of the Presidents Mansion was
three days in advance of the beginning
of the second sale of lots to the public
in the new Federal City. It is under
stood that the time was fixed with this
event in mind, in order that 1t might
possibly encourage the buyers of city
lots and thereby hasten the growth Of
the Capital City of the new Republic.
The building in which the Presidents
of the United States are to live will be
constructed Of sandstone brought up the
Potomac River from the quarries along
Aqua Creek, Va. The plan will be an
adaptation Of the italian Renaissance.
The architect Is James Hoban, an
Irishman by birth, who is said by some
to have based his design for the struc-
ture upon the palace of the Duke OF
Leinster at or near Dublin, Ireland
Persons who are better acquainted with
Mr.. Hoban, however. declare that this
story is incorrect The plans, on the
other hand, bear striking resemblance
to the vice regal lodge in Phoenix Park,
Dublin. Doubtless the architect drew
upon several sources In perfecting the
drawings for the building.
James Hoban was one of numerous
competitors who submitted plans for the
Presidents house in response to an adj
vertisement by the Commissioners of
the Federal District March IA, 1892.
His designs were quickly accepted, and
he received the promised reward of
$500, in addition to q building lot In
the city.
1t was noted today that the corner
stone of the Presidents house was laid
on the Booth anniversary of the landing
Of Columbus-the day following his
actual discovery of the New World.
The money to erect the building is to
be raised from the sale of city lots or
donations from the States of Maryland
and Virginia. 1t is probable that the
actual work of construction will pro-
gress very slowly for lack of sufficient
funds.

I'VE knew well enough" says Goethe
the great German poet, in speaking of
his grandfather on his mothers side,
Johann Wolfgang Textor, that he was
often informed in remarkable dreams of
things which were to happen. This gift
Of prophecy, especially with respect to
things which concerned himself and his
destiny, raised the veneration in which
we held the old gentleman to the high
est point
The poet himself was reused to deep
speculation by this uncanny gift of
his grandfather. Particularly did he
ponder upon the strange case of Herr
brought him to the position of mayor,
or chief magistrate, of the important
city of Frankfort-on-the-Ma
While he was yet among the junior
aldermen of the city, he announced to
his wife one morning that he would
soon be placed in the position of coun-
cilor to the magistrate, very impor-
tant position.
How can you suppose that?" said
Nine Textor. THE councillor is not
ill; he is not even very old"
II dreamed 1t last night" replied her
husband. MY dreams are never wrong.
Yes, I shall be councillor"
He went on to describe his dream. He
had seemed to be in the regular council
meeting, where everything, as usual,
progressed according to schedule.
Suddenly, to my surprise" went on
Herr Textor. 'the councillor got up
from his seat adjoining that of the
magistrate on the daiS, descended the
steps and came up to me. He indicated
by q gracious gesture that I should
ascend to his seat. Then, bowling, he
passed out of the door,"

not long after. His successor being
chosen by lot, Alderman Textof'S proxy
drew the golden ball which insured his
choice
So sure was he Of his selection prior
to the drawing Of lots that he ordered
that his house should be prepared for
the reception of guests who would come
TO congratulate him.
Time passed. The mayor died. All
Frankfort was in stew as to whom
his successor would be-that Is, all but
Councillor Textor. He knew in advance
that he was to receive the important
place.
Ancient prerogative gave the Emperor
the right OF appointing the mayor.
However. he had not exercised the priv
flege for some time. and the aldermen
themselves performed the task, albeit
their decision was more or less mat
ter Of luck. Three candidates were per-
initted, and their proxies drawn from a
leather bag in which were two silver
and one gold ball. Those who got a
silver ball We're rejected. The gold ball
announced the winner.
The great point was to get this done
In hurry, lest the Emperor should take
It into his head to make the appoint
ment. Consequently, when the mayor
died the court house messenger was sent
at midnight TO summon the officials to
an extraordinary session the next
morning.
At the Textor house the light in the

Cinderellas.


Constantly my attention Is being
called to the fact that parents keep
their daughters working to swell the
family funds long after the additional
income has ceased to be needed.
It is alleged that the parents are
actuated purely by selfish motives. The
girl is rewarded with only a small share,
II any, of her earnings.
AS a general rule, this modern Gin
derella has no chance to entertain her
friends. She is condemned to a life Of
servituds and often spinsterhood as a
result OF contr outing to the support of
her family.
There are many cases In which the
parents are dead and an old maid
sister compels the younger sister to
sacrifice her life.
How often we have seen these various
dramas played in real life! Sometimes
motherless boys. She darns their socks,
makes their favorite desserts, keeps
their home bright and then watches
them, one by one, marry and leave
her-stranded.
There is the girl who Is tied to an
old tyrant of a father, who sacrifices
her youth and spirit to his selfish wh1ms
and gross egotism.
There is the girl who Is chained to
sick room and whose life revolves
around the invalid. Her whole world
is encompaSsed by four walls. Her only
conversation is listening to the invalid
talk about herself.
Perhaps these Cinderellas who give
up everything for their relatives have
their own compensations They may
be stirred by the magnitude Of their
love, moved into pouring out all they
have to some one more self-bound and
unfortunate.
Yet we pity them. For they are losing
the color and thrill and movement OF
life-chained as they are to some one
elSe'S life wheel.
Does not such an unselfish girl con-
tribute, after all, to the selfishness OF
others?
Might she not better break away and
give the other person chance to
practice that most splendid OF virtues
unselflshness?

write to the author.

Your Shoulders.


If your shoulders are too fat you can
only reduce them by reducing your
whole body, but If they are too thin
your problem is much easier. For one
thing, shoulders that are even a little
fat look gross. Shoulders still too slen-
der have great deal of charm. Even
awkwardness has charm, you know, and
a great deal of youthfulneSs.
But. not If the1 are too slender
Here are some suggestions for making
very thin shoulders fatter.
MaSsagel This does help quite a
bit, though by itself it will not be a
cure for thinness. But II you rub the
shoulders and the neck with olive oil
nights, maSsaging the oil or cream well
into the skin, you will be pleased with
the results, for the skin takes up a
little Of the oil and the massage really
does the work.
Exercise is the real way to make bad
shoulders good. Hold your arms out
straight in front of you and bring them
sideways and back and repeat a dozen
times. Raise the hands straight over
the head, bring them down to the
shoulders and then out on level with
the shoulders. Do this dozen times.
Clench your fists and hold them out
Qua o.6AS "a AAoA1 Va yO0' DING OoOA
slowly to the shoulders, tensing the
muscles and pulling against yourself
that is, acting as though you were
pulling a great weight toward you.
Do this dozen times.
At first do these exercises only half
a dozen times, but after a day or 50
a dozen times. Repeat them all each
day, and when you go out for a walk
where the air Is good, drink in deep
lungsful of it, for this helps to develop
the shoulders by building up and i'm
proving the chest.
Swimming, rowing and such exer-
ciseS are wonderful for making poor,
thin arms and shoulders well devel-

out, for his candle was almost entirely
consumed.
Give me candle stump" he begged,
chat I may continue my round"
Herr Textor turned to servant with
the manner of one completely certain
of what he was saying.
"Give him a whole one" he said,
"for he has had all this trouble on my
account"
The next morning he was chosen
mayor. The circumstance was unusual.
His proxy did not have chance to
draw until the two others had finished.
These both brought out silver balls, SO
that the action of Herr Textor's proxy
was purely perfunctory.
1t was said Of Textor that he had the
ability to know when any one closely
related to him was sick or dead, even
though the person happened to be a
long distance away.
