including special scenery. painted by Matt M1or
gan and ilarley Merry. and will he Interpreted
by a company of well-known artists, among
whom may be mentioned Dominick Murray,
Walter Edwards and Marguerite Feely. The
play has made a great impression everywhere
by its realistic scenes, which include the lu
minated chapel, the village green and the Carl
ton iron works, the interior of the latter, with
its tall chimneys pouring out volumes of thick
smoke and its Dlazing furnace sLooting out
huge red lames, forminga weirdly picturesque
scene. 'The plot is strong and develops a story
of villany, which is, of tourse, ultimately
thwarted and right is triumphant. Specialties
enliven the play, including anvil chorudee by
the Workingma sQuartot,songa and datnee by
the Twin Caty trio and eparring and acrobatic
exhibitions by the Mlartinetti brothers.

season of lecture work on Ahursday evening at

completely lilling every seat and all the avail
able standing room greeted the lecturer with
rounds of enthusiastic applause as he ap pe.red
upon the stage. Mr. litoddard acknuwledged
the greeting and then proceeded with his lec
ti.re. "Iravelsan Sunny Spaia." The announce
ment of Mr. Stoddard's retirement from the
lecture platform for a year to enable him to
travel around the world undoubtedly added to
the interest of the occasion and contributed to
swell the audience.

During the mouth of July myself and several
others made a tour through Virginia on hone

through "amicker's Gap," crossed the moa

we remehed the erry, and feeg somewhat in

we might lad accommodations for the night
we were directed to the Castleman farm. T
proved to be an old Virginia manion, standing
some 140 feet above the road. The plaes at
one time belonged to the Washington ftamlly

Washington.

This tomb, incioed by a rickety paling fence.
is built of brick and stauda about two feet high.
On top is a large slab, broken in two. I was
curious as to how so heavy a slab could have
been broken, and was told that during the ate
war a party of raiding soldiers visited the
anthinking the family might have hid
their valables within this gloo my recep

it fall. and today it hears p roof of their act.
So covered with maoss was the fae of the slab
that 'twas with diffeulty I made out the In
scription, but this is what I read: "Im mem
ory of Mrs. Betty Carter, relict et the lat

of Fredericksburg on the 22d day of February,

to a traneibrmation that has turned an entire

there baa been one unebanging 2eatur, and
that is the prices of property have eonaatl
been on the increase. The pee paid by Wd.

well this development. e ' owns the entire

both of the above named streets. There Is,
however. one break in the frontage, and that is
the narrow old-fashioned brick building ad
joining the Ebbitt liouse,which beleg, to Mr.
Joseph Willard. Until within a is days ago
there was another gap in his holdings, which
is occupied by the building 13121 etyest. This
property belonged to a la y in Brookl Re

home for a number of years yast of Mr. E. B.
Wight the newspaper corresponcdent. But
l oction this moda katbrought
a price which the owners of elegant residenoes
in the fashionable eaetion of the city would be
glad bo get for their property. A. Mr.
Willard is known as r conservative investor
the price may be regirdod as a pretty good in
djpation of the value of the property. It has
afrontage of 25 feast 113 inches, the lot ex
tending back to a depth of 10 fret. The price
paid was about #25pcr foot.The purchase aleota
cluded an abutting back lot 6%6 feet with &W
foot alley on the rear and side and the consid
eration paid for this part was about 010 per
loot. It is the intention of Mr. Willard to
make such changes in the propertyas will adapt

During the past week a deed was placed on
record tranfering to Gen. D. W. Flagler, U. S.
A., a building site on California avenue, Wash
ington Heights. Gen. Flagler has recently
made his home in this city, having been ap
pointed chief of ordnance. Like other men
who know anything about Washington real
estate he has decided to own his own home,
and in the near future he contemplates build
ing a handsome house on the ground which he
has just purchased. The location is beyond
the bounda of the city and ts in what may be
called the suburbs. But it is ao near the city
that the residents enjoy all the conveniences of
a city and do not consider that they live in the
country. The specioes lot afed pleaty of rooa
about the house for lawns and in this respect
they regard themselves as more fortunately
located than the residents of the city. Gen.
Fagler's lot has a frontage of 9i feet and a
depth of 180 teet, and as he paid $Sid, for the
lot the rate per square foot was not quit 01.
