ane ca AL, Double Stores, 314 & 316 7th St. A 20th Century Store. As we stated yes- terday, “just as big a business can be buiit upon this spot 2s anywhere else in this city—in time.’’ We may have to lose alittle money to ac- complish our end, but we consider the prize well worth the effort. This ‘“‘new= order = of = selling” means that you are never to pay us quite as much for anything as the others ask. In other words, we pro- pose to sell every- thing in our estab- lishment a _ little cheaper than the same thing can be eb= tained anywhere else in this city. We ad- mit that this is a bold statement, and we expect you to be skeptical —to doubt it. Weonly ask that you investigate for yourself. This is al- ready a bigger and better store than many of you think, and it is going to be made bigger and bet- ter every day. “20th century” business principles also— money returned — goods exchanged — satisfaction or no sale —and we shall do all we can to make your shepping comforta- ble and pleasurable as well as profitable.

LESS) DIFFICULT «THAN FIRS? Fewer Subdivisions Hava Already Been Laid Out. INCLUDES BROOKLAND At the morning session of the board of Commissioners today the preliminary map of the second section of the street extension plan was submitted to the Commissioners by Engineer Richards, who ts in charge of the work. The Star presents above a cut of the second section. é Accompanying the map is the following report, which explains it quite fully: I respectfully submit the preliminary map of the second stction for a permanent system of highways. It is drawn on a scale of one inch to 400 feet, and com- prises all the suburbs and rural parks of the northeast between North Capitol street extended and the Eastern branch. The area is about 6,5u0 acres, or a little more than Washington proper. A number of small and irregular subdi- visions have been laid out in these parts, but the land being c and some of the subd. a few persons rectiiic: edsily carried out. Subdivisions under the law of }888 num- ber about fifteen, and the plan of their extensions, together with the extensions of the city streets-and avenues, form a system that will require but few details of study when compared with the section just completed. The configuration of the grcund is well acapted to straight line ex- tensions, the only real rough parts being in the vicinity of Fort Totten, northeast of Soldiers’ Home, and the parts between Bladensburg road and the Eastern branch, The second section is well dotted with cemeteries, seven in number, which, if al- lowed to retain their present boundaries, will seriously interfere with any complete or well-planned $ystem of highways. The cemeteries as well as parks and public institutions should be bounded by lines in harmony with the plan of extensions. Extension of City Streets. The locations of north and south streets are guided with few exceptions by the ex- tensions of such streets from the city. The east and west streets are controlled in lo- cation by the city streets from H to W. Above “‘W" the e ing subdivisions and the plan of section No. 1, are made to de- termine the relative positions of all east and west highways. The two subdivisions of Trinidad and Brook nd, \although not conforming to the tem, have been improved to such nt, and are so situated that it was ed best to make no radical changes in them. Trinidad being next to the grounds of the Deaf and Dumb Institute, it was con- sidered unwise to extend the city streets inte this subdivision and have them block- ed by the institute's grounds. This takes for granted, of course, that the grounds of the institute being owned by thé United States are permanent either for an institu- tion or for a park. In the case of Brook- land its system is continued north to the Bunker Hill road. south to Rhode Island avenue, east to Queen’s Chapel road, and west to the Metropolitan branch of the Baltimore and Ohio railroad. The Brook- land system is rectangular, differs very lit- tle in direction from the city plan, and joins well with the city system at the boundaries named above. The Avenues. The avenues that will have their lines extended into this section are Rhode Island avenue, New York avenue, Delaware ave- nue, Maryland avenue and North Carolina avenue. Rhode Island avenue is extended direct from the city to the Metropolitan branch of the Baltimore and Ohio raliroad. It here takes a slight bend to the south to agree with the South Brookland subdi- vision, running etraight from the Balti- more and Ohio raliroad to 14th street, bending then to the north on account of a better.grade location and running straight to the District line. Its city width of 130 feet is retained throughout. New York avenue is extended with the city azimuth and width from Florida ave- nue to the reférm school grounds. Delaware avenue is changed in direction at Florida avenue so as to include the Brentwocd road, and runs direct to T street, being bent at T street so as to run direct to the circle-located at Rhode Island avenue and 10th street. Its width is re- duced at Florida avenue from 160 feet to 120 feet. Maryland avenue is extended direct and with city width to the Eastern branch flats. North Carolina avenue fs extended like- awise to the Benning road. Michigan avenue, located along the Sol- diers’ Home grounds, is extended in broken lines along Bunker Hill road to 15th street. Two avenues, 160 feet in width, are lo- cated to run in the general direction of Florida avenue and District line and upon lines of easy grades. One of these forms a connection with the north end of Rock Creek Park and the other is the connecting link fof a drive from Rock Creek Park to Eastern branch by the Piney branch boulevard and Sol- diers’ Home. The boulevard of the first section along the District line is also continued in this, Another avenue leading from the very heart of the section into the city, and upon an excellent grade, is contemplated after the abandonment of the tracks of the B. and O. railroad tracks from Montello to the city. The Parks. An outline is shown on this map of the western part of the proposed park, made by reclaiming the Eastern branch flats, Several squares and circles are laid out at the intersections of principal streets and avenues. Mt. Hamilton, east of Bladensburg road; Hoover’s Hill, north of Bunker Hill road, and Fort Totten, northeast of Soldiers’ Home, are all suggested as places for parks or public institutions. Their great altitudes precludes any reasonble extension of streets over them. As soon as this map was received the Commissioners ordered it hung upon the wall, where it will remain for several days, to give interested property holders an op- portunity of studying it and file any objec- tions they may have to the same. After a reasonable time it will be officially ap- proved by the Commissioners and sent to the highway commission. —_—__. WEALTHY FAMILIES TO UNITE. Miss Edith Rockefeller Engaged to Harold F, MeCormick. Special Dispatch to The Eveuing Star. CLEVELAND, Ohio, June 4.—The engage- ment of Miss Edith Rockefeller, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. John D. Rockefeller of this city, to Harald Fowler McCormick, son of the late Cyrus H. McCormick of Chicago, was announced yesterday. A stir in the wealthy and fashionable world will be caused by the announcement, which nteans that two of the very rich American fam- ilies are to be brought into closer relations by marriage. The Rockafellers are now at their sum- mer home near Cleveland, and young Mr. McCormick has been visiting them lately. The acquaintance between the young people is not of recent date, as the Rockafeller and McCormick families have been intimate for years. Miss Edith is the third daughter of Mr. and Mrs. John D. Rockefeller, and is about eighteen years old. Cyrus H. McCormick was one of the richest men in Chicago» when he died on May 13, 1884. He was tho inventor of the reaping ma- chine, which made his name famous, and for many years he was the president of the McCormick Harvesting Machine Co., in which he made his immense fortune. He left a wife and three sons and two daugh- ters, one of the daughters was married to Emmons Blaine, who died not long after the marriage.. An older brother of Harold Fewler McCormick is now the head of the McCormick Harvesting Machine Co. a Smithsonina Suit. . Prof. Saml. P. Langley, secretary of the Srm‘thsonian Institution, today, on behalf of the institution, filed a bill in equity against Levi Meech and others, to declare resulting trust and for forfeit: gityre of legacy cater: the will of the late Ro rt Stanton Avery. f oe ney, ST. MARK’S DIFFICULTY Probability That a Suit Will Settle the Whole Affair. The Pastor Makes Some Denials Re= garding Church Lists—Mr. Meloy Has Proposed a Suit. The plan suggested for the adjustment of differences between the two factions in St, Mark's Church is meeting with general ap- proval among the members of the parish. It is expected that within a very few days the case will be made up by attorneys for eech side, and a statement of facts agreed upen. Mr. Wiliam A. Meloy of Trinity parish acts as attorney for the de jure vestrymen, and will have charge of the case for them in the Equity Court, if the proposed plan of action is carried out. The de jure vestrymen have held a meeting end carefully considered their case. All the necessary affidavits and statements of facts are now practically made out from their standpoint in the controversy, so that so far as they are concerned no delay will be occasioned. The hearing before the committee on elections in the diocesan convention brought qut probably a full statement of the facts as viewed from the standpoint of the de facto vestry, and no Sreat delay need be cuused by the prepara- tion of their side of the case. Mr. Meloy Was seen today by a Star reporter and said: “I have made to the rector formal writ- ten proposal, on behalf of the de jure ves- try, and with their full consent, to sub- mit the decision of their respective rights in an amicable writ on agreed or admitted statement of facts, and let_the court de- clare who are qualified voters under the law. As yet, however, I have no reply. Rev. Mr. Graham was my attorney.” Ready for the Trial, Mr. Meloy’s plan has been submitted to the de facto vestrymen, and a meeting will be held today or tomorrow, in order to act upon it. While the several gentlemen who constitute this vestry are reluctant to say what will be done, it is svident that they are entirely willing to have a friendly suit, and would be glad to have the difficulty settled at orce, for all in some authorita- tive manner. When the case is made up it will, in all probability, be brought in thé Equity Court, and the whole matter sub: mitted to Judge Hagner, whose decision will be binding on all concerned. A Statement by the Rector. Mr. Graham, the rector of St. Mark’s, denied today that he had stated to the committee of the diocesan convention when questioned as to who the imported voters were, that he had entered the names of these voters in a pocket diary, which he re- garded as one of the books of the parish. He thought he had been greatly misunder- stood by any one who represented him as making such a statement. In the first place, Mr, Graham stated, the expression “imported voters” was not used in any question addressed to him. Nor did he say that the names were entered in & pocket diary, which he regarded as one of the boaks of the parish, The names that he obtained of members of the parish were entered in the parish record k every day as he obtained them, and subsequently he wrote them in the pocket memorandum book in which he kept his calling list. He had transferred all of the names, —— the exception of a few, from the record book to the list of voters. The few not trans- ferred were at the end of the list. Mr. speaking of ft the contro- versy to a Star reporter today, remarked that he had not made of oe oe ciergymen or to the public ais — and Acie sibs ys re anything today except Tre’: ment that misrepresent He depre- cated any publication church effairs. and he said he regarded ag extremely childs ish boasts made on either side church collections, or any other chi matters. —__———— One Case Today, This afternoon & colored ka: Joseph R, Garrett, ¢mployed at Smith's lumber yard, overcome heat, and had to be sent to the Hospital.
