Zanes, A. A., Boyd.
Philanthropy, Sept. 13.
I write from Boston, Mass.
I came here on the Governor Ding-
ley from Port.and, Maine, 110 nauti-
cal miles east of here. There is a
regular line ot steamers that ply be-
t ween here and Portland. Leaving
Portland about 7 p. m.„ about
time of the day the tide
rough voyage. And the Atlantic like
all other bodies of water Ik always
rougher near the sliorc than it is in
mid-ocean. The Governor Dingley
was named in hon ,r of the congress-
man from Maine who was the repub-
lican successor of William McKinley
as chairman of the ways and means
committee and was the author, nomi-
nal at least, of the Dingley tariff law,
the tariff schedule, and who was af-
terwards governor of Maine.
Boston, classic Boston, the Hub, is
the capital of Massaehustts, the Bay
State, and is the most populous city
hi New England and the fifth largest
m the T'nited States, having a popu-
lation of 500,892. The Charles and
A'y.stic rivers empty into the Boston
FJav here. Boston has many popu-
lous suburbs, including Cambridge
• iih 90,000 population and Soniers*
vi11:? with 61,000. There are electric
railways running all over Massachu-
• its. There are lines and connecting
lines from Boston to nearly every city
in the state, but cities are not far re-
roved from one another in Massa-
- i: ii setts like they are in Texas. Mas-
•.'fhustts is tlx; most thickly settled
1:'te in the union. It has a popuia-
on of 2,S05,o46, and an area of only
.:.!(> square miles, giving it IJ2S peo-
plo to the square mile; while Texas
has only 11 people to ihe square mile.
If Texas was as denslv populated as
Massachusetts, it would have 87,251,-
<508 people, more than there are in
ill - Cnited States, Canada, Alaska,
Nwf(/undland and Greenland. If Bos-
ton's corporate lines were as elastic
a-: those of some cities and could be
; retched out around all its suburbs,
it would have close to a. million inhab-
itants. The Boston waterworks .loos
furnish water to all suburbs, cal/o.
tii metropolitan system, but they
have their own municipal govern-
ments. '| no traffic and congestion is
relieved i the most congested portions
■ >f the city by the subway taking the
place of the elevated and surface cars.
The pleasure of an underground ride
In Boston to one who has been living
in noiseless Denton is marred by the
din that is necessarily encountered
from the time of going down until the
surface U reached. The motion of the
ear that you are on, the cars going
the other way on the other track and
ihe commotion of the passengers get
ting on and off at the station keeps
up a deafening din in that narrow
underground passageway. The sub-
way is electric lighted and the cars
are propelled by electricity.
Rhode Island, distinguished for be-
ing the least state in the American
union lies on the Atlantic between
Massachusetts and Connecticut. It,
■is well as Massachusetts, New Hamp-
shire and Connecticut, is part of the
capital the country embarked in
independent nationalism on, being
on • of the original thirteen
states. The area of "Little Rhody" is
only 1,247 square miles, a fraction
over one and one-third times as large
as Denton county. If the territory of
T< \as was divided into states the
size of Rhode Island it would make
2115 1-3 staes, nearly five times as
many states as there are in the union.
Rhode Island is very little larger than
the average Texas county, the mean
area of the latter being a very minute
fraction less than 1,099 square miles.
There are many points of interest
in an (T around Bos toil. The effort to
make a bare mention of all of them
in a short letter would be futile. Fan-
euil Hall, which is nationally known
as the "Cradle of Liberty," by reason
of the fact that the first public utter-
ance in favor of the independence of
the colonies was made in it, is never
misesd by a visitor to Boston. 'lTie
( original building was erected and pre-
; sen ted to the city of Boston for a
market and town house by Peter Fan-
euil a wealthy Boston merchant, work
on it commencing September 8, 1740,
and completed September 10, 1742.
There is a painting oyer the rostrum
in the Hall representing Daniel Web-
ster replying to Robert H. Havne of
South Carolina, in the United States
Senate in 1X30, and it is 16x30 feet
in size and cost. $40,000. Over the
front entrance to the Hall is a large
and beautiful clock, with the emblems
of the state and city appended. The
clock was bought by the school chil
dren of Boston, paid for by penny
subscriptions and presented to Fan-
eul Hall January 14, 1850. The names
of the children were placed in a tin
box and deposited in the case of the
clock, to be opened January 14, 1950,
one hundred years from the time it
was put there. Will any of the school
children attend the opening?
Leaving Faneuil Hall where the
first meeting was held to agitate
American independence, I made an
excursion out to Lexington, Mass, 10
miles from Boston, where the iirst
tiie I glm wa« hi the war for indepen-
rises I had a ' ^ence» April 19, 1775, fourteen and a
half months before the signin gof the
Declaration in Philadelphia. The elec-
tric line over which 1 traveled from
Adams Square, near Faneuil Hall, to
Lexington do not deviate much from
the route traveled by Paul Revere
when he rode from Boston to Lexing-
ton on the night of April 18, 1775, to
warn the militia of the approach of
the British, rousing the minute-men
on his way. The line of battle at
Lexington is marked by a stone with
this on it:
"Line of the Minute-Men,
April 19, 1775."
Under this the order of Captain
John Parker, commander of the .Min-
ute-men, who fell in the battle, is in-
scribed. It reads:
"Stand your ground. Don't
fire unless fired upon, but if they
mean to have a war let it begin
here. Captain Parker."
I also visited Bunker Hill, which ii
in that part of Boston called Charles-
town, where the great revolutionary
battle took place on Breed's Hill.
June 17, 1775, in which General Jo-
seph Wh t. p fell. A granite obelisk
223 feet high stands on Breed's Hill,
where the famous battle known in
history as Bunker Hill Battle was
fought June 17, 1775, two days less
than two months after the battle of
Lexington, i visited Harvard Univer-
sity just across the Charles river from
Boston. The museums of the Semitie ■ quartette,
the Agassiz and the anthropological
are all interesting. In the student j ELD
body are 300 Porto Ricans.

Sickness T/Jill Come/
k ❖❖❖❖❖❖❖❖❖❖❖❖❖❖
O
In every household sickness is bounJ to come some-
time. Then what a comfort it is to know of a doctor to
whom you can go with perfect confidence—whose knowl-
edge and skill you feel sure of. Likewise, when he has
given you a prescription, is it not also a great comfort to
know of a pharmacy where you can have it filled with
the positive'assurance that every care will be taken to
make the medicine exactly right, exactly as called for—
always from pure, fresh ingredients, always by a skilled
compounder, always at a perfectly reasonable charge.
Such a pharmacy is ours. Few others have such a per-
fectly equipped prescription department, or do nearly so
large a prescription business. Come to tis and you will
be safe—always.
