BY THOMAS r. HENRY.

The naive record of an adventurous
Virginia militia captain in the late
eighteenth century, which includes one
of the earliest accounts known of the
city of Washington, has just been Sc
cured by the Library of Congress.
1t is in the form Of a dozen age
yellowed manuscript letters from Capt.
Lawrence Butler of Westmoreland
County to an English lady. Butler
was appointed as surveyor of the lands
claimed by Virginia across the Allie
ghanies and made several trips into
the Wilderness infested with wild
beasts and Indians
Library Gets Diary.
Another curiosity of early Americana
lust secured by the National Library'S
manuscript division is the journal of a
Philadelphia girl, Susan Lear, of a
trip to New England in 1913. With the
approach of the Washington Bicenten-
NAL, the library is gathering up numer-
Gus old letters, journals and business
papers which contain curious side
lights on life in the colonies at about
the time of the Revolution.
Capt. Butler, on his way home from
"the warm springs" in the Fall of 1898,
came to a place on the Potomac where
a new city was under construction. He
wrote thus to his English friend on his
impressions of the future Capital OF
the United States:
Our Congress at present sits in
Philadelphia where they will remain
until the year 1900 at which time they
will move to the State of Maryland on
the Potomac River near Alexandria,
where they have laid off city by the
name of Washington, which is laid off
in an elegant manner. I took view
on my way from the springs. The
breadth of the streets-the grand ira
verse avenue and every principal d.
vergent on such as the communication

from the Presidents house to the
Congress house-is 100 feet and then
divided-10 feet for pavement on each
side, 80 feet CT gravel walk planted
with trees on each side, and 80 feet
in the middle for carriages.
THE other streets are on the follow
ing dimensions: Those leading to pub
lie buildings and markets 100 feet and
others ITO and 90 feet. There's to be
five grand fountains of water con-
stantly running. There are within the
limits of the city rs good springs. The
city is so situated as to have the river
on one side, and one creek through the
middle and a creek on two sides, and
has such command of water as to
carry it through the whole of the city.
House Height Limited.
There's to be a public walk, being
a square of 1900 feet and a grand
avenue 200 feet in breadth and a mile
in length. This leads to the equestrian
statue of Gen. Washington. The houses
are all to be built of brick and stone
and none over As feet high and none
under 40 feet"
In 1885 Butler made his first journey
from WeStmoreland County into 1.-The
western country" which involved the
dangerous crossing of the Blue Ridge
ito the foot of the largest mountain in
North America, the Alligany. This
mountain is about "a miles over, tho
there's several large rivers in it, When
we got to the top of it we found snow
to be three feet deep. which was the

Science
Cosmic Ray Bom6ardment
Varies With Weather.

Curious variations in the intensity
Of the earth's bombardment by cosmic
rays-the mysterious visitors from
outer space, the hardest Of which will
penetrate q foot of lead-are reported
by the German physicist, @. Hoffman,
In Zeitschift fur Physik, Berlin.
Carefully controlled measurements
have shown that the bombardment
from the most penetrating Of them
declines directly with increase Of baro-
metric pressure. This, it is explained,
may be due to the fact that more of
them are absorbed in the moisture
loaded atmosphere and never reach the
earth.
The softer" rays vary in intensity
with the temperature. This, Hoffman
believes. may be due to the movement
or radioactive material in the air
which increases as the temperature in
creases. There is no relation, how
ever, with the direction or strength Of
the wind. T. r. II.

18th Of April and before we got there we
saw no snow at ALL"
Finally, after hazardous journey, he
came to Fort Pitt. He described the
site of the present Pittsburgh as "a
pretty little town in the fork of the
Monongahela and Allegheny rivers.
Back of the town is high mountain
mountain which Is full Of pit coal equal
to what is burned in the city of Lon
don"
Drifting in an open boat down the
Ohio river, in constant fear of attack
by Indians, he was amazed to find the
occasional settlers making their own
sugar from native sugar trees" which
they tapped for sap. The sugar, he
said, was good as any from the West
Indies"
Fossil Hunter.
Butler was one Of the earliest of
fossil hunters. On his western journey
he came to a place called the big bone
lick on account of there being o large
number of bones there and I saw a
thick bone that measured at the big
end three feet round and a jaw bone
that must have weighed near so pounds.
A number have been sent to England
and France and they can't find out
whose bones they were. Some say they
are ELEPHANTS but / think they are
larger and that none of these beasts live
in this country at present"
When news came of the outbreak of
the French revolution and the execution
of the king he wrote to his English
friend that most Americans not only
bitterly regretted the incident but con-
sidered themselves to blame. Such
pernicious ideas, he believed, had been
taken back to Europe by the French
troops who served in America, and that
if there had been no American revolu-
ton Europe would have continued in
the good old way.

NEW YORK. June 30.
You've heard that if you throw
a toddler overheard, he'll auto
matically swim. But we would
MT advise this method of in
struction for any youngster
you're really fond Of.
Better, we think you'll agree,
is to put him. or her. into
such an intriguing swim suit
that he'll want to be at the
beach all the time. 1t takes
little persuasion to get chill
dren into the water on hot
summer days and once they be-
gin to paddle, it's not long be-
fore they swim.
Most any beach suit you get
them this summer will be in
triguing. They'll like it's color.
or its stripes, or its bows, or
its jacket or something about it.
For the smallest of the fam.
lily. who doesn't swim, the brief
sun suit is the thing. It's wide
open spaces give the sun every
