THE BRIGETWOUD LOAD EXTENSIONS. Work on two important extensions of the Brightwood railway is now in progzess. One of these extensions will run west along Mar- siall and Kenson streets from th 5 Toad to the power house of the cable road on Hith street, while the other will run east along Richmond street in the Fetworta subdivision to the eagie gate of the Sol fome.

It is a good deal of money to put in, a house, ‘and in this respect Mr. Heurich probably now stands at the head of the list’ The contract price for Mr. Leiter's large house on Dupont circle was $125.000. but it will probably cost more before it is finished. He paid over $100,000 for the ground. ‘The home of Mr. B. H. Warder probabir cost him $150,000, while itis told as a fact that the late Senator Hearst paid over $200,000 for the interior finishing, deco- ration and furnishing of his house. if he spent any such amount on these details the property would represent a total ex; are of about 2300.00. But this latter is an unusual figure. There are very few private residences in thie city that have cost more than $100,000. One- half that amount will build a large house, | handsomely finished and decorated. There are few houses in the city that are better finished or more richly decorated than ex-Senator Saw- yer's residence, on Connecticut avenue, yet the lease be recently gave to Senator Stockbridge carried the privilege of purchase at the stipu- lated price of £195,000. This figure, no doubt, represents the total cost of the property, house and ground, with a fair margin of profit. SENATOR LODGE’S RESIDENCE. Senator Lodge of Massachusetts has under consideration the erection of a residence for his own use. He ownsa lot on the north side of Massachusetts avenne between 17th and 18th streets, and the house if erected will be located there. A HANDSOME BALL RooM. Messrs. Barry and Simpson, architects, have prepared plans for an addition to the residence of the German legation, on Massachusetts ave- nue between 14th and 15th streets.

LASKER'S WONDERFUL CAREER. Herr Lasker is a young man, small of stature, with a Hebraic cast of countenance and noth- ing in his make-up to mark him as the student ora professor of abstruse mathematics, which he is. He was born in Berlin twenty-three Fears ago and won some distinction at chess at | the early age of tweive years. He isa gradu- ate of the Berlin and Heidelburg Universities, and since coming to America in October of last Year has divided his time between chess and lecturing on mathematics. He bas just com- leted a course of twelve lectures at the ‘Tulane University, New Orleans,on “The Theory of Lineal Differential Equations,” and he will shortly accept the chair of mathematics m that institution. At the age of nineteen he began to attract the attention of European chess play- ers, meeting the strongest players of the Berlin Chess Club, and’subsequently vanquishing the chess masters of Germany in individual matches. In 1891 be met such English players as Blaci burne, Mason, Bird and Gunsberg. winning with ease the English championship. Herr Lasker came to the United States on invitation of the Manhattan Chess Club of New York, and the best players of the east fell easy prey to his brilliant genius. He was tried with class games, open games, waiting games, ancient style, modern style, irregular openings, hack- neyed openings and what not, but he seemed double-armed at every point, and was never il \owalter in an exhibition game at the Indiana state chess tourney, held at Logansport last December.

THE NATIONAL GUARD Orders for the Annual Inspection and the Gallery Competitions. | eee MAY WILL BE A BUSY MONTH Capt. Averill and Some of His Engineers Have Been Busy Surveying the Range at Bellevue—As to Brigade Team Medals—An Interesting Lecture “9 night—Notes. — --— AY WILL PROBABLY ||| be one of the busiest months of this National Guazd year, Yor the an- nual inspection and a long string of rifle com- petitions in the gallery are all scheduled to come off between the Ist and 3ist. Primarily there is anxiety to make a first-class showing at the muster, but beneath this is » stronger and more gencral hope to achieve distinction in the competitions, A very large proportion of the brigade will be most actively interested in the matches, for nearly every company—there will not be more than two or three exceptions—will be called upon to furnish at least twenty men as contestante. It has now been established beyond all question that a man’s ability to shoot can be vers fairly gauged at the indoor range and, although the first-class gallery shot is not always equaily good in the open air, he is still good enough to be a valuably effective soldier. THE MONTH'S PROGRAM. General orders, No. 6, issued today, are as follows: 1.

Teams from these latter organizations will have on them at least three representatives from each of two companies and the remainder from the one other available company. ‘The cleaning of rifles between stages will not be permitted. No soldier will be permitted to participate Since that timo arrangements have been making for the match which is now in pro- gress, and which, while finally determining the American championship, nominaily deter- mines the European championship as well. LASKER'S OPPONENT. Lasker's opponent, Jackson W. Showalter, is native of Minerva, Ey. He is thirty-four years old, and he did not begin to play chess until nine years azo. He came into prominence by winning the Kentucky charapiouship, and crowned a successful career by his wonderful plays in the United States Chess Club contests, winning, as has been said, in three successive toutneys, with the loss of but one game. This feathas ‘been accomplished by no American chess piayer living, and is equaled only by the great Morphy.

WHAT SOME OF THE ENGINEERS ARE DOING. Capt. Averill of company C, engineer corps, and a detail from his company, made a survey of the naval reservation at Bellevue magazine on Tuesday for the purpose of determining the best location for the Fifte range.

Dennison and Schneider, Corps. Stewart, Chandler and Pvts. Dewey, Harvey, Middleton, Pres- sey, Tegethaff, Boles, Pendieton and’ Sun- derland. Capt. Averill bad the squad “foot it” to Bellevue as practice for any walking match which may develop in the guard. At the meeting of company C, engineer corps, to- night 8 paper will be read by Corp. G. V. Chandler of the patent office, on ‘Recent In- ventions in Ordnance, Firearms and Explosiv and Their Effects on Future Warfare.’ Any member of the guard may attend. NEXT WEEK'S SHOOTING.

Prepering for the Washington Jockey Club's _ Next Meeting. Aweek from Monday next the Washington Jockey Club will throw open their gates for a spring meeting of twelve days. That the meet- ing will be a success, both in racing point of view and also financially, the energy and enter- prise of the club management clearly evidences. Recognising the value of stake races the club opened six liberal stakes for the coming mect- ing and received entries comparing most favor- ably with the stake events of the other racing organizations of the country, both as to num- ber and quality, the hotel and primary stakes, for two-year-olds, receiving 38 and 96 entries, respectively; the Deanwood stakes, for three. year-olds, 19; the national capital stakes and the Durang handicap, for the older division, 23 and 28, respectively. and the metropolitan steoplechace stakes. 12 The stables making these entries are among the very best in the racing world land large fields of high-class horses will make the first venture of the club in arranging stake events one of the racing events of the racing year of 1893. AT THE TRACK, Although the meeting does not open for more than a week yet, there are already at the track, ready to face the starter, not less than 150 horses. The stable of Green B. Morris bas arrived with Judge Morrow and ten or fifteen more high class ones, and from now on there will be daily arrivals of the big stables. In fact, Secretary Draney is already at his wit's end to know how to place all the stables which Secretary Crickmore of the Monmouth Park Association makes a suggostion that ought to be agreeable to everybody connected. with the | turf. There is too iittle system and method in | the conduct of American race tracks. The starter, for instance, has_ not felt it incumbent on him to mention ‘to any one occurrences at the post of an ordinary nature, such as the fining of a jockey for disobedience or his sus- nsion for impertinence or rascality of some ind. The mere fact that So-and-co is put down, is reported in the course of time, but the public seldom learns the reason why. ‘Matters occur at the post waich even the secretary and the judges know nothing abont, but concerning which they ehould be informed immediately is not the starier’s fault that this is so. is the fault of the system. ‘The judges are in the same boat as tho starter. They often do things as a mere matter of routine which nobody seems to think worth reporting for the edification of the public. Mr. Crickmore thinks that the people who support racing are entitled to all the news of the race track, and he would arrange matters so that they can get it. He believes that the calendar of the English Jockey Ciub should be followed in this respect. If a jockey gives offense to the starter, and is fined or suspended, the full par- ticulars should go on record. There is no rea n for keeping such things from the eye of the public. Of conrse no effort is made to do that: the trouble is that the board of contro! has not thought if necessary or interesting to publish sneh trifles, Mr. Crickmore’s suggestion is a good one. Everything that happens should be reported, and the locai club would do well to bear Mr.’ Crickmore’s suggestions in mind, FORMIDABLE HANDICAP CANDIDATES. The way Judge Morrow has been going at Gravesend makes him a very formidable can- didate for the Brooklyn handicap. Indeed, there are any number of good horsemen who believe Green Morris’ famous horse will surely win the first great spring handicap of the sea- son, thus putting that event to his credit two years in succession. Cassius, the handicap hope of Walcott & Campbeli’s string, with P sara, is Inid on the shelf. The legs of both are decidediy dicky. It is almost an open secret thatthe stable fears Pessara will not train again, while Cassius is pretty much in the same boat.’ Parvenue, with his i114 pounds, is con- sidered the most formidabie Brooklyn handicap horse now located at Morris Park. Hezan eleven races last year and was defeated but once. Another Brooklyn handicap candidate clearly on the suspicious lists Major Domo.
