WASHINGTON, Aug. 20.-Now that
everybody is away from Washington there
is time to stop and look around at Wash
ington itself When this series of illus
trated letters was begun more than year
ago it was the intention to devote some OF
them to Washington itself. to its beautiful
streets, its elegant residences, historic
buildings and its costly ana impressive
statuary and art productions which adom
its streets and public buildings. But events
have crowded so thick upon each other,
and people whose faces are of interest have
come SO rapidly to the 'front.' that tins
feature of the work has been omitted until
now. when it is found possible and practlc-
able to give to outdoor Washington very
small degree Of the attention to
which it is entitled. No single
newspaper article can do justice
to the subject, for Washington is very rich
in this department of art. Nobody who has
not studied Washington, visited all parts OF
it, and made this particular feature sub
ject of inquiry can realize the field which
one ventures upon when he attempts
to say anything about outdoor art

Few people who look for the first time
upon Sarah Althea Hill, the beautiful
young lady who is making things warm
for ex-senator William Sharon, would sup
pose that she possesses the fiery temper
which has lately been exhibited in the

attracted great attention from the crowds
who thrOng the courtroom. The young
