ment to Houdon for the Washington
statue.
Mr.. Johns, who occupies the origi-
nal Monroe home near Charlottesville,
is sure, he says, that the bust ex-
hibited in Washington was executed
by Houdon. 1T seems only logical
to assume" Mr.. Johns said, that
Houdon had done something in re-
turn for the many services of Monroe
to him, and I felt that an effort to
locate the bust was worth while" The
bust is now the property of French
titled family. Mr.. Johns has under
taken an inquiry into ways and means
for Its eventual aquisitiou by Virginia.

and murmured against her ear:

and laughed happily: But your

want it to be pearly white so

He said o ma sudden, deep,
sharp breath: "Oh Pippin, I
don't have to imagine that!"
He stood there looking at her
and saying casual things about
the trip, the weather and the
mechanics who were not tuning
up the motor. But all the while
conscious that these moments
were precious and shouldn't be
wasted in trivial talk.

why the tears streamed down

She drew from him and said

She followed him to the door.
Still he loitered. He took her
hand and looked a long while
into her face as though he
were never to see it again and
wished the image stamped i'm.
mortally on his memory.
Remember the first time I
went away? You stood on that
hill in the Presidio and waved
the white handkerchief? I
thought I could see your face
and your hair, Pippin. Why I

But I did-if you keep on

She gave him a flashing, in
dignant look and found his
eyes dubious and intent, fixed
on her face.
He was flushed with the ex-
ercise. He stood there so quiet
but his whole being seemed to
glow with an urgent and pas
sionate vitality.
Pippin dropped to the arm Of

quietly with her glance on her
clasped hands. She wore the

GAINS MAINTAINED
BY LUMBER FIRMS
Sure Foundation for Prosperity
in Home Building Has Not
Appeared as Yet.

The lumber industry climbed out of
the valley of economic destruction in
1888; during 1884 it held its gains,
but did little more, declares Wilson
Compton, general manager, National
Lumber Manufacturers Association.
1T is true that the production Of
lumber in 1884 was 10000, ,O0O, 900 feet
as against $4,000, ,000,0 900 feet in 1898,
and 10000, 100000 in 1882 (record
low since 1859, but this increase was
a contribution to economic under
balance rather than Q real busi-
ness gain.
THE sure foundation of prosperity
in the lumber industry - extensive
building, particularly residence build
ing-has not yet emerged from the
morass of the depression. What build
ing there is beyond the barest require
ments of the feeble existence of the
lumber trade is Federal Government
work, direct or indirect. Private hous-
ing reached the lowest third quarter
level of the depression in the third
quarter of 1884.
Attention must be directed to the
fact that the lumber code has pro-
vided steadying influence.
Our industry, principal source of
building material for housing $50 per
cent of all detached residences are
lumber -built), has the prospect Of a
great deficit of shelter to make up, be-
sides higher average amount of ad-
ditional building than for years past" !"

In Real Estate Outlook Here

the great tax-paying corporations are
continually being regulated"
Edwin C. Graham, president Of the
Hamilton National Bank, called at
tention to the vast Improvement that
has taken place during the past year
in business in this city, then added:
Bank deposits have increased quite
considerably and the majority of the
business, houses report very subStan-
tial increases in volume and profits.
"A survey of the real estate market
discloses the fact that practically all
apartment houses are filled and that
there is a shortage in small homes.
This would seem to indicate a revival
in building operations in the Spring,
and If this happens it would. of course,
result in increased business for the
building supply houses and the en-
ployment of great many people"
George L. StarkeY, president of the
National Bank Of Washington, de-
clared that next year will be a bet
ter year than 1884. President Roose-
welt is doing everything he possibly
can to help recovery, but no one man
can do 1t all. No sudden change is
likely in the coming IL months, but
steady progress seems assured. have
sufficient faith in the American people
to believe that the marked recovery in
many lines in the last year will not be
allowed to halt. The banks have am

of the Security Savings & CONNER
cial Bank, is one of the most enthusi-
astic financiers ON the outlook for the
Capital. With the present increased
population and broad gains in buying
power, as well as real estate advances,
he can see nothing but further ad-
vances in 1885.

National Savings & Trust Co., said 8:
In the past few months I have no
ticed many evidences of improvement.
There has been notable return of

Washington, has increased buying
power, which will be reflected in the
growth Of the business Of our mer-
chants.
Real estate, particularly with re-
spect to rentals, is in good condition,
and during the year 1885 there should
be a resumption of building activity,
which, If accompanied by demand
for the purchase of real estate, should
do much to restore our general situa-
ton to more normal proportions.
Assuming that the investigation
which is being made at the instance
of the President looking toward an
adjustment of the Federal Govern
ment's share in maintaining the ex-
penses of the District government will
result in a proper apportionment OF
such expenses, it is my belief that
the year 1885 will see our city well on
the way to a recovery to what might
be termed more normal conditions"

of the District Bankers Association,

curity & Trust Co., made this fore
