charge Of laying the thing in the United States
Patent Office Building after the fire there
in 1877.
His work upon the churches Of Washington
has been quite extensive. and includes con-
struction of the Pilgrim Steps at Mount ST.
Adams, and the laying of a part of the interior
floors of that great edifice, which was done
under his supervision.
Many have noticed the beautiful effect of the
stone tower of All Souls Unitarian Church, at
Sixteenth and Harvard streets where the late
President and Chief Justice Taft worshiped,
but few perhaps, have ever given a thought
to the man who set the three-ton apex stone
at the top of the steeple, but this was only one
Of number of similar achievements performed
by Mr.. Jouvenal. who also put in position the
four clock faces in the tower of st. Marys

Mr.. Jouvenal also participated in the erection
of the new Metropolitan M. E. Church at
Nebraska and New Mexico avenues, also the
beautiful National Christian Church on Thomas
Circle. He erected the Washington Hebrew

Though Mr.. Jouvehal eonfesses to the age

have sown them judiciously-he could pass for
q number Of years younger than his actual age.

in New York City, where he was for some time
employed. On August II of the same year he
was married to Miss Mary Hauser. and in 1855.
Mr.. and Mrs. Jouvenal came to Washington.
where they have since resided. On August II,
1903 they celebrated their golden wedding. an
event which is still fresh in the minds of many
of the older residents who were present on that
occasion.
Mr.. Jouvenal sculptor Of no mean
ability having first studied the art in Stuttgart,
Germany. His best works include bust Of
Gen Won Steuben. now the property of the
German Orphan Asylum on Good Hope Hill.
D. c., also the familiar and much admired
statue of Benjamin Franklin erected some years
ago at the intersection of Pennsylvania avenue
and Tenth street by Mr.. Stilson Hutchins.
Several pieces of his work grace the Senate
Chamber at the Capitol.

of the Washington Monument-Quite an ap-
propriate honor for a native Washingtonian.
since the idea Of building the great white
shaft. as we see it today, originated with the
residents of this city.
Adolph H. Jouvenal who still lives among
us, is responsible for the stone work Of a num-
Der Of the handsome structures in this city,
and Of other artistic work here and elsewhere,
in addition to the exacting work he performed
on Washingtons sarcophagus when he was still
an apprentice.
Like hts brother, Rudolph, he also worked ON
the Washington Monument and did the lettering
over the Ord and Weit8el and the Sheridan
gates at Arlington National Cemetery. Incl
dentally, the four columns erected at the latter
gate and the two used at the former originally
stood In front Of the old War Department
Building, which stood at Seventeenth street
and Pennsylvania avenue, where Is now the
State War and Navy Building. They are, 50
far as the writer knows, the only remaining
relics of the old building where Lincoln was
wont to sit for hours waiting for Geographic
news from the front during the agonizing days
of the Civil War; while little Tad, unaware of
what it all meant, dipped his childish fingers
into the ink wells and smeared the fluid over
everything, and trying the patience of the teleg
raphers until Mr.. Lincoln would have to take
him home to the White House.

marble in the completion of the State

COLDER WINTER
FORECAST

It begins to look as though
Washington residents might do
we'll to prepare for colder weather
this winter than they have be-
come accustomed to in recent
years.
U. S. Weather Bureau officials
are interested in long<range fore
casting possibilities and are de-
voting p2'nstaking study to this
phase.
They have scrutinized with
keenest attention the many theo-
ries that have grown up around
weather cycles" and they have
at hand numerous tables of sta
tistics dealing with means and
averages.
These show that the average
winter temperature for the last
five years has been above the aver
age for the last so years and that
last winters average was the high
est of the five.
The coming cold season may be
the forerunner of below-average
cycle or it may be the last Of an
aboVe-average cycle.

LEONARDTOWN, Md, Sept.
27.-Hereafter hens in Charles
county around Newport, Md, will
look first before they peck at a
turtle head, for one old barred
rock hen yesterday had this ex-
perience and nearly lost her life!
1t came about in this way:
Edward Cameron, while walk
ing in a swamp near his home
happened to espy a large old
turtle Sl'nning itself on the bank
of a stream, its happy home, and
managed to capture it before it
was able to crawl away.
Coming home with it he cut
off it's head and threw it in the
back yard and brought the body
of the turtle in to be cooked for
dinner.
The family some three hours
later heard quite a commotion
among the other chickens in the
barnyard and on goin govt to see
what was coming off saw a hen
Tapping and rolling over in a
most strange way. When Mr..
Cameron got there he saw that
the turtle head was snapped shut
on the peck of the hen. She had
come along, pecked at the turtle
head and it had come alive again
and got hold of the hens bill.
After some little time with the
aid of two sticks he was able to
get the Jaws in their vice like
grip off the bill. 1t is said that
the head of the turtle does not
die until shutdown. And that is
how Mr.. Cameron saved the life
of his hen just in the nick Of
time.
