The Results of the Original Research
of Mr. Marcus Baker.
COLUMBIA HBTOBICAl SOCIETY MEETING
Stones Set Up on the District Line
a Century Ago.
MEMORY OF L'EXFANT
A good many facts of interest were
brought out last night at the meeting of the
Columbia Historical Society at the residence
of the president. Dr. J. M. Toner, 1445
Massachusetts avenue. This was the fourth
meeting of this newly-organized society,
and the first held Mnce the summer vaca
tion. A number of the members have not
yet returned to the city, and the attendance
was, therefore, not large. In addition to
the members there were quite a number
who had accepted Invitations to be present.
The subject presented for the consideration
of the society was "The Boundary of the
District of Columbia," and Mr. Marcus
Baker read a highly-Interesting and in
structive paper. The topic was not a new
one to Mr. Baker, for last year he treated
a kindred theme in a paper which he read
before the National Geographic Society on
the surveys of the District, which will be
published in the proceedings of that body.
The paper read by Mr. Baker last even
ing contained the important results of some
original research which has occupied his
rnoments during the past summer.
As there is no official record of the stones
which are set up more than li?> years a?o
mni" the boundaries of the then ten
hlmhi li?re,r, ?-OVSn as ,he District of Co
' h*' -yhr- liaker determined to ascertain
lhr,h- these stones were still in existence
con'Juto"- from an examination
previously made of one or two of the stones
which marks each mile on the four lines, he
learned that they contained the record of
the variation of the compass. From recent
surveys he found that the modern reading
compass differed from that of the
extent oTV^"**1 ?" these "tones, and the
extent of this variation, he said was a.
matter of scientific interest.
Condition of the Stone*.
He gave a short but interesting account
of the instructions issued by Gen. Washing
ton for surveying the bounds of the Disrtict,
and said that they showed the practical
knowledge which the first President po
Sessed of the science of surveying. Each of
the four lines, it was specified, should be
ten mile9 long, but Washington added that
movtir!rOUTh be, conUnued to the point of
r .i! lhe lines were not exactly the
length provided. The eastern line,for exam
Pie, was some aw feet longer than the
stipulated length, and there was aUo a
small excess in one of the other lines The
bounds of the District, therefore, instead of
being square formed an oblong. Mr. Baker's

itV'Vi i ,he best of them It was diffi
cult to decipher the Inscriptions.
A % alliable Record.
His account of his search for these stones
and the difficulties In locating them afforded
a good deal of amusement. While it was
possible, with the aid of a map to get with
in the near vicinity of the stones, yet the
exact spot where they stood could only be
learned by patient tramping through woods
and fields and inquiry from those who lived
i^t|hel1?Calily" The Iirst stone on the Mary
he said. Is located near the Con
duit road and its situation is marked by its
| near proximity to the ruins of an old cock
pit, which was frequented by those fond of
, this brutal sport, who were obliged to go
outside of tne District in order to gratify
their tastes in this particular. A similar
cockpit was found near a boundary stone
which is on the Naylor road. Mr. Baker
copied carefully the inscriptions as they ac
tually exist today on each of the stones, so
that his researches furnish a record of their
condition lcrj years after they were set up.
He said that the dates cut in the stones
showed that those in Virginia were set up
jn the year 17!?1, and that those in Mary
land were placed In position in the year
Mr. Baker's paper aroused the greatest
interest among the members of the society,
and at its close a number of questions were
asked, which elicited additional facts. Mr.
M. W. Gait inquired about the stone which
marked the center of the District, a location
which is near the Washington monument.
Mr. Baker had also investigated that matter
and described the surveys made under di
rection of President Jefferson for determin
ing the meridian of Washington and the
setting up of a stone near the Washington
monument and also one on lcth street, near
the site of the old standpipe. He had learn
ed from one of the local histories that the
stone which was supposed to mark the Dis
trict center was at the corner of 14th and R
streets, and was used as a carriage step.
He went there, but did not find It, but sub
sequently learned that tjie supposed stone
was at the reform school for boys, where it
was used as a hitching post. He saw this
stone, out found that the inscriptions had
practically disappeared; but it was evident
that it was once used to ma:k the meridian
line, arid was probably the one erected at
the head of leth street.
The Memory of I/Knfnnt.
Mr. Baker had a number of early maps
of the District, which were examined by
the members. This naturally caused some
reference to be made to Maj. D'Enfant,
who designed the plan of the city, and to
Mr. Ellicott, 7'hu made the surveys.
Dr. James W. Morgan, who has quite a
collection of the original letters written to
and by Maj. L/Enfant. presented two which
wera written by Thomas Jefferson to Maj.
L. Enfant in regard to the surveys. He
alio exhibited a rare old print of the origi
nal L'Enfant map.
Mr. John A. Kasson, the ex-minister to
Germany, spoke of a conversation he had
held with the late VV. W. Corcoran in re
gard to erecting a fitting memorial to the
great French engineer In this city. He
learned from Mr. Corcoran that Congress
had sent to L/Enfant a check for ?4<>u In
payment of his services, which the haughty
Frenchman had returned, saying that if
his services were not worth more than that
amount they were worth nothing. This
check, Air. Kasson said, had been returned
to the I'nited States treasury, where It still
remained, and, with the accumulated in
terest now amounted to a sum which
would be ample to meet the expenses of
erecting the proposed monument. While a
member of Congress he had introduced a
, Li ? . i.s ''urlM,se. but soon after he had
resigned his beat to accept a diplomatic
position, and had therefore not been able
to push the measure. It had remained for
gotten in the Pigeon-hole of the committee
room. He thought that the society would
do well to take up this matter, as It would
be a late, but deserved, honor to the mem
ory of the creator of the plan of the cap
ltal city. "
Some facts were presented in regard to
the boundary stones of t'.ie city by Capt.
John Stewart, C. E? who also spoke of the
early maps of the city and the connection
of L. Enfant and Ellicott with them.
Mr. M. I. Welier suggested that a good
work would be performed If the society
would collect as far as possible in the orig
inals or In copies the letters of L Enfant
and blllcott, which were now widely scat
tered.
At the close of the discussion the society
adjourned.

in remembrance of the many courtesies
which they had, explained Mr. Heilbrun,
received from the court. Mr. Heilbrun also
took occasion to express the admiration of
himself and his associates for the manner
in which justice was administered In the
courts of the District. Jud^e Cole, In reply,
explained that he accepted the flowers and
the kind words of the grand Jury on behalf
of boih Judge MoComas and himself, for
both had held official relations with them,
and for District Attorney Blrney as well.
It was very gratifying, said Judge Cole, to
be told by the citizens of the District, for
the grand jury truly represented the citi
zens. that the courts of the District were
entitled to such high commendation. It
was equally gratifying to him to be able
to return the compliment, and he dis
charged the grand jury with the thanks of
the court for the very able manner In

in n Unlet (iame,
At No. 5 1-2 Fenton place, which Is only
a short distance from St. Aloyslus Church,
a "cook shop," or "pig's foot shop," as
some of the colored people call such places,
is kept by a colorea family. Cakes, pies,
candles and soft drinks are also to be
fcund there. But the people In the house
have no legal right to run a poker game
there, although the police received Informa
tion that such a game was going on in the
rear room on the second Ilocr. Policemen
Brown r.nd Duval 1. who do duty on the
beat, concluded a few days ago that they
would raid the place at the flrst oppor
tunity, and Sunday night about 11 o'clock
the opportunity presented Itself.
Although the shutters were closed and the
curtain drawn the alleged gamblers had
not succeeded In keeping the light from
being seen from tie outside, and the rat
tling of the chips made It evident that there
was a game it. progress. Huving all the
exits covered in order to prevent the escape
of any of the players the officers entered
the little store and continued upstairs. Six
colored men were seated about the tuble.
apparently enjoying a game of poker, and
the officers founa about |BU in the party.
When the officers entered the room and
"called the game" the manipulators of
the catds made a bre^k for liberty. A man
named Waters WciS so antlous to leave
that he made a Jump for the back yard,
forgetting that ihe window was not open.
In going out he took the window sash with
him. Policeman Duvall, who was close
behind, grabbed hiin by the leg, but his
trousers were not strong enough to hold
him. and he dropped to the yard.
John Briscoe, who rents the room, and
W. H. Shaw, who Is his friend, were ar
rested and charged with setting up a gam
ing table. Shaw had most of the money.
When Judge Miller heard the case yes
terday the witnesses told more about en
gaging In a game of crap than they did of
poker, and It was stated that Shaw "cut
the game."
"What do you mean by cutting the
game?" the court asutJ.
"Taking down "> cents for the house."
The witnesses were all losers.
Judge Miller held the defendants for the
grand jury and fixed the bend at Kl'to.
THE FALLS CHI KCH RAILWAY.
Officer* Elected and an Extenxlon of
the I.lnea i'onnldered.
The directors of the Falls Church and Po
tomac Electric Railway Company recently
elected by the stockholders of that com
pany, viz.: A. P. Eastman, N. W. Graham,
S. S. Burdette, R. S. Lacy, O. E. Hine, M.
E. Church. R. W. Moore and E. J. North
rup, met In this city Saturday and elected
the following officers: Maj. O. E. Hine of
Vienna, president; Gen. S. S. Burdette of
Carlins Springs, vice president; Maj. R. S.
I.acy of Ballston, secretary, and Dr. N. F.
Graham of West End, trearurer. After an
Interchange of views, a committee was ap
pointed to meet the president of the Mt.
Vernon Railway Company and ascertain
how soon a connection can be made with
that company's extension at Arlington or
Long Bridge, as, under their charier, the
Falls Church and Potomac Company has
the right to enter the city over their lines.
This, It is believed, Is a long step toward
securing a direct connection from Fulls
Church to the Central market. It is also
contemplated to build a spur from Arlington
to Georgetown. All of the gentlemen con
reoted with this enterprise are large prop
erty holders and residents of Alexandria
bnd Fairfax counties.
