Last evening at the Washington International Train and Airship Terminal a kermesse for the arts was held in the bonne aire of late Washington spring. Patrons arrived in the newest styled motorcars and afoot. There had been rumours of foul weather which were quickly dispatched when Professor Rufus Hillhouse brought his weatheranator and quickly dispatched the clouds. It was said that it snowed 20 inches in Ainsworth, but who can be bothered with such things when there is progress in the air. Professor Hillhouse stated it takes more than twenty lead storage batteries to power the weatheranator, but it can be powered by any electric motorcar and an assistant willing to hold the wires to certain mechanizms not readily explained. Luckily there was a group of young professionals there and there was no shortage of assistants. Professor Hillhouse had also arranged to light the terminal with the newest brightest Edison lights. These he strung on wires and terminated in a large lead box which glowed and hummed -- disturbing the mayor's team of horses. A brace of birds was taken in the afternoon and ground into many tasty hors d' oeuvres for the guests. We can consider last night the start of this season's entertaining.Send braces of professional digital cameras and twitters to @cjswift
