Those of us who enjoy some little

Early on the 21st of March the
sun the sign of Aries, and
astronomical spring begins. Two or
throe thousand years ago, when the
heavenly y ii is were originally
fashioned, Aries marked the vernal
equinox, the passage of the sun
through which betokens the opening
of spring. Owing, however, to the
slow westward movement of the
equinoctial points Aries in reality
has no longer the honor once ac-
corded it, but has drifted to the cast-
ward.

The stepmother was not at all good

who sent a ram, which took
them on its buck, sprang into the
air and hustled them oil to the east-
ward.
In those days Europe and Asia
were separated by a strait, as we find
in a measure to be the case
and the girl became frighten-
ed or perhaps dizzy from seasickness
in crossing the water at this very
rough time in her experience, lost
her hold and fell into the

Hellespont. The boy had a better
hold and kept on until he reached
the far end of the Black sea.
us showed a spirit of sacrifice, not
of self, however, by killing the ram
and presenting its golden fleece to
the king of country, who caused
it to be hung in the sacred grove of
the Aries under the guard of a sleep-
less dragon. The star marking the
forehead was called by the Arabs
which means sheep. In very
early times it is said that the Greeks
considered this star as the sunrise
herald of the vernal
York Time.

brand, the style and cover of the
packages in which the wares are

So great has become the

WASHINGTON LETTER.
Our Regular
Washington, D. C, Mar.
Opposition to the rate bill has
been latent all along and is crystal-
zing as opportunity offers for
the enemies of the measure to get a
tangible reason for criticism. Sen-
Scott of West Virginia is one of
the latest to come into the open and
array himself squarely against the
administration measure- In a speech
n the Senate this week, he took
just the position that will be as-
Inter by a number of senators
and denounced the proposed
as ill advised and inefficient.
He took the that govern-
regulation of rates was
mount to government ownership,
differing in degree but not in kind
He said that the experience of for
governments had abundantly
proved that the government could
not make a rate that would meet
needs of expanding trade and com-
And he said that a rate
based on mileage alone would tend
to centralize the trade of the country
in a few cities that were
favored in their location or had
the natural advantages of water lo-
cation. This last statement disclosed
the radical weakness of the speakers
position as it was obvious that a
river or seaboard city the path to
which was open to any sort of carry-
competition would of necessity
have the advantage of competition
such as any favorably located point
on the railroad ought to have. The
advantage of location is obvious and
inevitable if all shippers and all
localities are treated on a perfectly
equitable basis and the railroad,
which v really the highroad of the
country just as the rivers are, were
thrown open to all comers on equal
terms.
The Senator said that he wanted
to see the railroads forced to make
connections with brunch and lateral
lines and thus be forced to give free
ind equal access to all shippers to
all markets. lie also forced the
principle of court review in any
rate-making power that might be
given. The address was altogether
a very able argument, but it

the lines along which amendments

be fought out.
Another effort is being made on
tho part of to secure home
rule, The complaint of the island
now is not that they are not well
governed, but they fear that at some
future time they not be so
well treated under tho form of
government that now exists in the
island. The resident commissioner,
Mr. has appealed directly
President to exert his influence
Congress to extend absolute
autonomy to the island. This of
course the President is not likely lo
do. He has enough on his hands
with Congress at the present
without pulling on a fight over
Polio Rico, which is doing
well as it is.
Time is drawing close for a vote
on tho live stink transportation bill
which is drawn with a view to in
creasing the sufferings of all cattle
transported to the market in the
United Slates. There is being a
strong light against the bill
by tho Humane Societies and an
peal is being circulated to each con-
to vote against tho meas-

An English Company has
plied for a erect at
the Jamestown Exposition a
tower, which surpass in
height the famous Tower Eiffel
of Paris, which for years
ranked as one of the wonders of
the world. f
This lofty structure, t hough
be situated
from the sea coast, may be seen
by captains of the coast steamers
plying the Atlantic. Ten thous-
and or more incandescent lights
will be attached to the tower
and a mammoth searchlight
placed at its apex will bathe the
for miles around with
bright light.
It will require less than six
relays of elevators to reach the
top. These various us
they are called in England, will
terminate at platforms or stories,
where it will be necessary to
change cars. The cable required
for each series of elevators will
be not less than feat long, or
equal to the length required for
a skyscraper.
The company planning this
gigantic enterprise nave also
under contemplation a scheme of
amusements to be located on the

In

and It was in Indian town
at the time the conquest, and be-
cause of its position on what for n
while was the main road be-
tween Vera the City of
Mexico it early became a place of
importance. After the establish-
of the republic it was made
the capital of the state of
Cruz. Between the rears 1780 and
a great animal fair was held
here for the sale of goods brought
for years by the fleet from Cadiz,
whence it derived the name f
applied
to the city in documents of the
eighteenth century.
The city is famous throughout
Mexico for the exceeding beauty of
its women and of its situation. From
these, its pleasing characteristics,
arise the saying that is a
part of heaven let down to earth,
and the proverb, son

The city is a curious, old
ed even in Mexico,
where everything seems odd to the
tourist with narrow. crooked
streets, lined with tile roofed
houses, whose pitched roofs project
their eaves so far they seem to
cover the sidewalks like a shed, and
pending from these are spouts to
carry the rainfall from the roof to
the center of the roadway. The city
has a perfect drainage system, based
upon and indeed consisting almost
entirely of the facilities so lavishly
bestowed by nature in the shape of
rain and grade. The streets slope
gently from the sidewalk on either
side to the center of the roadway,
thus practically forming high
troughs or gutters, and nil dirt or
refuse matter is immediately washed
beyond the city limits by the rains,
which fall, at least for a short time,
almost daily throughout the entire
year. This accounts for the
clean appearance of the city,
which impresses those who have vis-
other Mexican cities not so ad-
located in respect to
drainage as So abrupt is
the descent of the streets down the
side of the hill that no attempt is
made to use carts or carriages for
transportation of goods or persons.
A tramway which provides a means
of transportation to runs
