The events were mostly of local char
acter, involving Prince Georges and
Montgomery Counties, Md, and Wash
races for blood and local pride, rather
than large money stakes. Some of the
events, however. drew very large crowds
of interested spectators, horsemen and
farmers.
Prior to this the Capitol Hill Market
was opened on February /, 1918, in the
center of East Capitol street, between
First and Second streets.
The building of the Capitol naturally
increased the residents along F street,
at least from First to Third streets, and
the residents brought to this section
number of small business enterprises.
And, of course, many of the early resi-
dents included all kinds of mechanics,
many of which were stonecutters and
Stonemasons, some of whom were
brought from abroad, as skilled artisans.
And the son of one of these workmen
later served as a Congressman in the
Capitol his father helped to build. This
Broderick. who served as Senator
from California in 1857.
Senator Broderick
Senator Broderick was born in this
city on February T. 1920, the son of
Thomas Broderick, stonecutter who
emigrated from Ireland, and when en-
ployed on the Capitol resided on the
north side of East Capitol street, be-
tween Second and Third streets.
The senior Broderick left Washington
when his son David was but years
old, and took his family to New York to
live, and there David attended the COM
mon schools and learned the trade of
stonecutter. In early manhood, he en-
gagged in politics and became a power
in Tamany Hall He was an unsuccess-
full candidate for Congress in 1845.
In 1849 he went to California and
engaged in smelling and assaying gold.
He carried with him the political expe-
rience gained in New York, and in 1850,
WlCii Sd1i1o11id was tdhCA ultO tllC
Union, he became a member of the
State Senate, serving as president of
that body in 1851. Six years later, he
was elected to the United States Senate,
and served from March 4, 1857, until
his fatal duel with David S. Terry,
chief justice of the Supreme Court of
California, on September 13, 1859, near
San Francisco. Senator Broderick died
three days after the encounter.
A Historic Duel
These were still the days Of duels in
California, though the people in the
Eastern States had almost entirely
abandoned this method of settling per-
sonal differences. The trouble in this
case was the result of abusive remarks
delivered in a speech by Judge Terry
at the Lecompton State Convention at
Sacramento regarding Senator Brod-
erick, and later, in the presence of D.
w. Perley, the Senator retorted with
harsh epithets." Perley took up the
judges cause and challenged Broderick
to mortal combat, which the Senator de-
clined, but expressed a willingness to
fight Judge Terry at the close of can
vass then In progress.

Along Early East Capitol Street

all became boarding houses or resi-
dences, being occupied from time to time
by many distinguished Americans and
foreigners, including Abraham Lincoln
when member of Congress.
At the time Tunnicliff conducted his
hotel near the corner of First and A
streets NE. he maintained beautiful
garden along the First street side Of
the block. Some years ago James Crog-
gon gave list of the early owners of
square 728, where now stands the Su-
preme Court Building and where was
formerly Tunnicliffs Hotel and later
the Brick Capitol. Mr.. Croggon says:
Square 728 (Old Capitol Prison. was
plotted for 80 lots and title to Is each
vested in Mr.. Carroll and the United
States. At the commissioners sale in
1893 H. Nichols bought lots IA and Is
for $53333 r. Mickey lot and NJ Phil
lips lot 6, in 1886 George Collard bought
a. on A street. Luke Washington bought
lot 16, corner First and A, for $409.75,
which the following year sold to George
Walker for $3.50, and in this Gen. Wash
ington and Thomas Law were interested.
In 1889 A. Robinson bought lot 81, Sec
ond and A streets, with house, and r. E.
Griffith became interested in lot S, on
East Capitol street. DR.. John Kearney
in 1900, bought lot 18, on street, and
in the following year sold to MacIntyre
g. Armstrong for S1,43586, with the
brick house thereon. S. Collard, F.
Kirby and Mr.. Walker owned ground on
A street and W. Bryan on East Capitol
street in 1901 In 1902 E. Fallon and
John MacIntyre are registered as buying
lot 18. In this year Mr.. Walker sold lots
Is and II to William Tunnicliffe, who,
in 1904, sold to Pontius Stelle. In
1905 z. Farrell and J. N Brashears
bought lot 2, on East Capitol street. '''
THE corner as before stated, First
and A streets, passed from Luke Wash
ington to George Walker prior to 1900,
and in 1902 Mr.. Walker had title to II,
on the east. On these lots had been
erected three-story brick buildings and
stabling, and William Tunnicliffe, who
had been in the hotel business near
Ninth street and Pennsylvania avenue
Sc, bought then and opened Tunni-
cliffe's Hotel. This, in 1904, went into
the hands of Pontius Stelle, and the
place became widely known under that
name, The consideration to Mr.. Tinni-
cliffe was $4,000 for. the ground,
buildings and effects, with stabiing for
so horses"
The Race Track
But the list of people mentioned by
MIR. Croggon does not reflect in any way
the real condition of East Capitol street
at that time or even for many years
afterward, for even IS years or more
after the Government moved here. a
race track was in operation in the area
included in East Capitol street from
Fifth to Eleventh streets. It was
slightly short of a mile and was used
principally as training track, although
a number of fine races were run there
just the same
The course was run by horse trainer
named Brightwell, probably John
Brightwell, an assistant clerk in the
clerks office county court, whose home
was at the corner of Second and C
streets NE. He had his stables on Sec
ond street near Maryland avenue NE,
and from there managed the racing.

problem is that he is jealous and
my life is miserable. | don't
want to separate. Tell me if
! am to change my natural pleas
ant and friendly ways as he is
jealous of everyone l speak to.
! pray and ask the Lord to guide
me and help us both. We have
a little house started and he's
doing all the building and
work right with him. Yet he
accuses me of different things
Of which I am innocent.
Ans. Many women would give
their eye teeth to have their
husbands show jealousy as your
husband does. It's not too seri-
Gus. He wants all Of your atten-
ton and you should see that he
gets plenty of it in the presence
of others. Shower him with af-
lection and have eyes for no one
but him and watch him become
treasured of your love.

E. S. Al need your help bad
ly. My husband died and left
me with three boys ages 10, 7,
and 4. My mothre has them
with her in the country so I could
come to twn and get job to
help her all l could. Here is
my worry. l met man here
and he seems to love me. l have
just found out that he has a wife
and ] am very much in love with
him. have tried to break away
from him but it isn't as easy as
that. Everytime ! ask him to
help me out when l am badly
in need, he gets angry and stops
coming to see me. Now he heard
my boy friend from overseas
was coming home and he wants
to know what l am going to do?
l told him l was going to marry
the boy and he said I wouldn't
live a happy life with him. Now
that has me worried and ! want
to know what to do because l
love this man, more than the
soldier who is coming home.
Ans. You are aware of the
fact that the married man has
no serious intentions and YOU
are wasting your time going with
him. II he loved you it would
still be wrong to encourage him
at all. Get him out of your mind
and out of your life entirely be-
fore your friend from overseas
returns. Pay no attention to the
married mans prediction that
you wouldn't find happiness
you can. However, if you allow
ed him to continue seeing you,
interfering in your life after
your friend returns, it would GER
tainly ruin your chances for hapi-
ness. But if you break away
from him permanently right now,
you need have no fears of the
future.
