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. C. F. Ber
