WASHINGTON society has been terribly
libeled of late by the press of the land.
Newspapers in every portion of the country
have been assailing Washington social OBJ
servances and manners on all sorts of pre-
texts. The ladies of Washington are ac-
cused of immodesty in their full-dress
toilets, and the gentlemen of an undue
fondness for the social punch bowl and
wine-glass. The young mon are depicted
in various newspapers as dudes who are
spanked by their fathers, aud the young
ladies are ridiCuled as devotees of many
fashionable iollies.
Last, but not least Of these attacks, is the
verdict of the modistes who have come to
Washington to make toilets for the inaugu
ration ball, that the matrOns and maidens
of local society lack taste and Judgment in
matters of dress and are inclined TO be
shoddy and peuurious. How much more of
this sort Of thing Washington society will
stand without rising in open rebellion is
not known In all fairness it must be said
that Washington society is no more liable
to any Of these charges than are tho society
people Of other cities. Washington society
like that OF every city in the world, has its
fancies and follies. That Washington pays
moro attention to society than many Of
her sister cities tends in some respects to
increase and in many TO diminish them.

THE insane asylum holocaust at phila-
delphia last night was a calamity OF un-
usual horror. Long corridors Of cells with
locked and bolted gratings, containing
mapiacs doomed to awful and torturing
death, present as terrible picture as the
imagination can draw. From such an oc-
cuIrcnce one good result may arise. The
attention Of the authorities of other cities
is thus called to the condition of the in-
stitutions under their control In Wash
iDgton and in every other city this terrible
event should not be passed by unheeded.
There arc precautions possible that have not
been taken; there are safeguards that could
be thrown around the inmates of our asy-
lums and hospitals that are not now af-
foTded.
The authorities are under the gravest
obligations to protect the.community-ho
much greater is the obligation to protect
those who arc deprived by law, by prison
cells or asylum wards of the means of pro-
tecting themselves. more perfect system
in the Philadelphia asylum would have
saved score of lives. Arrangements by
which prisoners could be Immediately
liberated when an alarm was sounded would
not be difficult to make. The responsibility
for a failure to take such precautions is a
very grievous one.

DIR. PATTON AND THE LADIES.
What lie Says About HIS woman
Rights Sermon.

This weeks New York Independent con-
tains letter from DIR. w. W. Patton, of
Howard University. It is about the re-
cent scene in the Congregational Church,
when no delivered o sermon on woman's
rights. This is what DIR. Patton says
May avail myself OF your wide circulation,
especially among my friends, to correct the
astonishing misrepresentation OF my recent
sermon, ON "rhe Relation OF Woman to Faith
and TO Skepticism," which has beon trans
mitted by the Associated Press TO the various
newspapers OF the land? II was stated that
had affirmed that, when women were allowed
too much liberty, they rushed into skeptlci5m
and immortality. Not the faintest approach
10 such a sentiment was uttered. But / did
say, and prove, that when woman forsakes

deity she leaves her best friends and puts
herself In peril.
The charge was made that assaulted the
moral character Of Hypntia, Madame Roland,
Harriet Martlneau and Frances Power Cobbe.
Not n word did / say, In that respect, against
one OF those ladies'. / eXtolled the talents aud
lamented the sad end OF Hypatia, and CON
astics. In the case OF Miss Martineau, elm
ply contrasted the hopeless nature OF her dy-
ing declarations Of unDelief With the triumph
ant hope expressed AT the end of his life by tho
Apostle Paul, whom skeptical women SO much
malign. AS 10 Madame Roland, simply
quoted Lamartine's remark, that she lacked
the support OF Christian consolation and re-
lied ON stoicaI Indifference.
SO far was from assailing the morals OF
Frances Power Cobbo that used these words
"She writes calmly and seriously, and has a
woman's sense of the value OF pure morals and
spiritual religion, and confesses the benencent
Influence which Christianity has exerted IN
this respect" II was said that / representsd

fragist, whereas l spoke OF her only as a

for such noble vindicatlon Of their sex! My
friends know that my aim always Is to do JUS

the sentiments OF Fanny Wright, took pains

THE Washington Monument has beon
photographed since its completion by pho
tographers from many cities. There is
scarcely conceivable view of the imposing
memorial which has not been taken by the
camera. There is scarcely a viewpoint
from which the shaft has not been photo
graphed. The pictures have been takon
morning, noon and night by daylight and
moonlight. To say that as works of art
they are not success is humiliating, but
Irresistible, conclusion
The Washington Monument is iu itself
imposing and grand, but it requires the
immensity to inspire admiration. A pic
ture that shows the simple outlines and
loses all the effect of the proportions, is by
no means striking. The only approach TO
work Of art is picture that shows the
reelection of the Monument in Babcock
Lake. 1t has been demonstrated by gram
matte and verbal critics that it is almost
impossible TO correctly describe the Monu-
ment by any word IN the language, and
now 1t is pretty clearly shown that it is
impossible TO correctly represent it on eau
vas or cardboard, by camera, paint-brush
or pencil.
