Will Show in La Grande July 23-24 In their Big Circus Tent Admission ; , . A FAMOUS HOTEL CLOSED. The Arlington, In Washington, Long a Political Hoadquartort. , The Arlington. Washington's most famous hotel, has closed Its doors for ever. The old Btrucrure is to be torn Uowu, uuU a tO.OtW.OoO hostelry will tuko Its place. For more than forty yeurs the Ar lington bus entertained its scores of great tueu. ' For more than half that period it was the diplomatic headquar ters of the capital, and until it closed it was the abiding place of the most not ed people regardless of the new pala tial hotels. . , On the site of tbe main section of the present house formerly stood three stately mansions, writes tbe Washing ton correiondent of tbe Baltimore Sun. One was occupied by William L. Marcy, secretary of war under Presi dent Polk; another by Lewis Cass, sec retary of state under Buchanan, and in tbe third dwelt Reverdy Johnson, tbe brilliant Marylander who was at torney general and minister to Eng land. Next door is the old borne 'of Charles Sumner and Senator Pomeroy. Close by is tbe old British legation. Here lived Sir Bulwer Lytton and his son. Lord Lytton, and here be wrote his celebrated poem "Luclle." Between 1S70 and President McKln ley's time practically every president went from the Arlington to be Inaugu rated. The late Speaker Thomas B. Reed died at this hotel, as did Senator Mark Hanna; a former secretary of state, Walter Q. Gresham, and a for mer postmaster" general, Henry C. Payne. Senator Root lived at the Ar lington for years, as did Senator Al dricb. For many years tbe Arlington was the center of diplomatic interest Li Hung Chang stayed there with bis suit of 100 Chinese valets, cooks and other attendants. During the Russo-Japanese war Prince Fusliiml of Japan bad a whole annex of the Arlington for the conferences. J. Plerpont Morgan never went any where else in Washington, and James J. Hill had rooms there always. An drew Carnegie preferred the Arlington. FIRING AERO BOMBS. Two Methods Are Undergoing Tests by French Army Experts. Highly satisfactory results havs Just been obtained in the series of experi ments carried out to test several meth ods of dropping bombs from aero planes on to a given spot Though the are far from having reached perfec tion, two appliances. Invented by the Farmnn brothers, have already given great satisfaction to army experts. Details of their mechanism are, of course, kept secret, but as regards one of them It Is known that the method employed Is that of. drat of all. local inn the target by dropping a dummy bomb, which on exploding spreads out a white powder easily . visible to the pilot. Thl bomb once dropped, the ma chine Is turned back, and the pilot, knowing bis hplcht by his baropraph and the speed at which he Is flying, can by means of nn almlncr apparatus and the ordinary principles of gun nery locate his next shot to a nicety. The other apparatus, much more complicated, requires to be bandied by an experienced officer and therefore can only be employed In two seated aeroplanes, onrr.vlnfr, besldos the pilot a bomb dronplns speclnilst.
