Proposed Reception TO Herr Lasker.

number of the leading Germans of the
city met yesterday at Abner's Hall for the
purpose of inaugurating arrangements for
the reception of Herr Lasker, the eminent
German jurist and statesman. The meet.
ing was entirely informal, having been as
sembled on short notice. 1t was decided
that Messrs. Simon Wolf, w. Burchard and
w. Habercorn, of the Journal, should be a
committee to correspond with Mr. Lasker
who is now in New York, and ascertain
when he will probably be able to visit thi:
city. Mr.. Wolf stated last evening that he
thought likely, as Mr. Lasker wished ia
study American institutions and politics
be would probably wait until Congress con.
vened before he visited Washington.

Right of the School Board to Audit
Accounts.

The Commissioners devoted several hours
on Saturday to a discussion of the ques-
tions arising out of the complaint of the
alleged improper award of contract
work under the School Board, which has
been pending long time. The immediate
issue was on the unpaid bill of Messrs
Hayward & Hutchinson, which was dis.
puted by Messrs. Bright and Humphrey
The Commissioners took the ground that
the school trustees had no right to audit
bills, and, proving this by the statutes
covering the matter, they disregarded the
action of the board and took possession of
the bill, which will probably be paid at
once,

Sure there was no harm,

And bent a little lower,
And we walked little slower,
Meath the trees.

For saw she did dissemble,
All tho while;
And knew her heart was niue,
Though my hand she did decline
With smile.

tice.
More trappings of aesthetic splendor are
being added every day to the Department
Of Justice. The crushed strawberry busi-
ness about the fence surrounding Brewster s
Park, mentioned by THE CRITIC recently,
seems to bave been intended only as a cue
to the artists 1t was but a reckoning point
for future work.
For several days past Mr.. James NJ
Hodges, the house-painting contractor, and
Messrs. Callahan & Shepperson, the famous
grainers, have been at work upon the pas
sageway recently erected from the Pennsyl-
vania-avenue entrance to the landing of the
passenger elevator. The passageway Is
A Model OF Beauty
in both design and mechanical workman
ship. 1t is of the Cbina-J Japanese panel
pattern, the diagonal pieces of white pine
on the outside and the Georgia hard pine
panels on the inside being set with the pre-
cision and exqisteness of genius ITSELF The
roof has that nicely of pitch that makes
the exterior appear more like broken COL
umn than the ulterior corners of the semi
octoganal colonades, which form the rear
of that grand old brown-stone structure sur
roundings. The front posts and panel di-
agonal window frames in the passageway
make up a perfection of exterior and in
terror beauty. Blocks of Virginia marble
are laid to the floor from the sidewalk.
The Work of a Modern Raphael
is seen in the painting the passageway is
now undergoing. The artists mentioned,
although evidently working out the plans
laid down by the honey -combed aesthetic of
ruffies who inhabits The recesses of the
place, are plying delicate brushes with
almost angelic effect. The cOors used are
sage and olive greens and maroon, and the
manner in which they are thrown together
form a perfection of harmonious blending
seldom effected by American artists. The
graining-imitation of mahogany and wal
nut block--is in brilliant contrast with the
color of the cathedral glass in the dainty
window sashes, the same being of the light
est olive and ruby shades. The sun, as it
poured through the colored panes this after
noon, threw halo upon the natural pine
finish surroundings and the
Mahogany Pilastus
which almost staggered CRITIC emissary
with its ELUSIVE grandeur as he paused in
his bewilderment.
The walls of the building upon the east
side of the passageway are to be painted to
correspond with the plain pine inner panels.
In few days it will all be finished. Then
the entrance to the elevator from the Ave-
nue. will be one of the grandest walks in
the universe-ft for the tread of a king or
queen.
A CRITIC reporter was informed that
several relays Of Turkish rugs will be pro-
cured and fastened to the floor with solid
silver eaglets' claws during the summer,and
that in in winter time quintet of royal
Wallets will be employed to wait upon callers
and escort them to the elevator for reserved
pufsfs

AT THE THEATRE.

The Japanese troupe drew a good sized
audience at the matinee yesterday after.
noon and fair house last evening, not
withstanding the attraction to the local
holiday entertainments, which no doubt
kept away a great many. The man fea-
lures or the performances consisted of a diff
fcult balancing and JUGGLING feats. Nit.
suia and his two boys in the tub pyramid
act, were very good as
was the butt rhy extension
as performed by Yanamoto. The wrest-
ling match and dancing were rather tame.
The foot balancing of Mitsuta, using his
boys as subjects, was' very clever. The
bam boo ladder feat, by Mitsuta and mis-
boy Kuitoro was marvel of balancing
we'll worth seeing. The performance COR
cluded with Yamamoto's slide for life
back wards down an elevated rope on his
feet in standing posture, which was the
hest act of the evening.

of the measure Is the same as the bill in
trnhuced by Buckner In the first session OF

Z rhe proposal of Comptroller Knox to
take off he per cent. tax on the circua-
tion and allow banks to issue on
the market value instead OF the

Buckner says that If tire plan
of Knox is successful in
avoiding the contraction of circulation
of bank notes 1t will afford but temporary
relief, and in seven years from the
present when it becomes necessary to
begin the redeeming 41.2 per cent.
he is not favorably inclined to the removal

esys the franchise is still more valuable
beosuse the rates Of interest are
higher. The originator or the pro-
posed rnaesure was doubifal, probably
and legislation upon such subject should
be presented a. this session owing 70 the
