\ Perfect Gem.

Lovers Orart in interior decorations have
learned to look in at Mines, No. oil
Ninth street northwest, in the full belief
that there if nowhere else in Washington
the choicest goods i'm that line would be
found; and it has been Mr.. Mines pride
and pleasure 10 place his emporium in the
front rank as an exhibition ofart novelties.
Just now there may be seen at Mr..
Mines store a perfect gem of artistic
beauty in the shape of an etdJeye imported
from Venice, and the only one of its kind
in this country. This et0gcre is of the
rurest material, Is most profuscly carved
in the richest and most perfect taste and
is without doubt, the most elaborate
piece Of furniture of its kind ever seen in
This country. 1t is said to be similar to
one ordered by Mrs Mackey Of Caliror-
mia from the same manufacturer IN
Venice
Mr.. Milne has an opportunity TO place
this gem Of art in II Northern city, but
hesitateS in the full conviction that its
merits will strike some lover of the beau
tiiul in this city and that IL may yet adorn
some residence in the National Capital.
The opportunity for inspecting the article
referred 10 is short, as in Il few days it will
he removed, unless il is sold here.
Whether desiring to purchase this gem or
not ladies and gentlemen of appreciation
should not lose the opportunity of seeing
and adniring it, and Mr., Milne will be
happY TO place it OH exhibition for few
days only, cordially inviting connoisseurs
to call ana inspect il meanwhile.

TIE PROPOSED ROM.
General Bingham reiis About the Nev
AIRLINE 10 the West.


AIRLINE 10 the West.
An enthusiastic meeting Of the leading
citizens Of Warrcnton, Va was held in
Warcnton on Saturday last to consider
the fcasibilityo Of building an AIRLINE rail
road 10 the West, beginning at this city
and making Warrenton one of its sta
tons General Lafayette Bingham, who
Is the prime mover in the affair, is a we'll
known Washington man, and he was
seen by CRlTfC reporter to day, TO whom
he said:
"The road is a necessity as the pro-
posed route will be through a thickly
settled and rich country, now without
railroad facilities. II will pass through
Rappahannock, Fauquier, Madison and
Green counties, neither of which have
any railroad connection. The distance
will also be much shorter than the pres
ent road, which is iilty-eight miles To-
WaTenton, and the new road will be but
iorty.une miles. The road will penetrate
the iron and coal regions beyond Har.
risonburg, which will be one Of its princi
pal stations
How do you propose to raise the
funds Y'
"Rnppahannock County has promised
S1OO,00O Fauquier will give like amount,
and the city of Warrcnton $4,000 and the
counties through which the line will
traverse will each give $4,000. 1t Is
thought the citizens in the towns along
the line will raise $500, 900, which will be
expended in putting the road bed in
shape and grading preparatory to laying
the rails.
Capitalists both in America and London
have volunteered the money necessary to
purchase the rails and the rolling stock.
The money can he raised ON twenty-year
bonds paying ! per cent. \ charter
committee has been appointed and will
move in the matter at once"

Accident to the New Ordnance Shop ut
the NaVy-Nard.

People around the Navy-Yard were last
night startled by loud crash and the
sound of falling glass. An investigation
showed that the central portion of the
roof of the Immense new ordnance shop
had fallen from the weight of the damp
snow that rested upon it.
The roof is Of Slate, except the central
portion, which is made of glass 50 rs to
light the interior, and IL was about two
thirds of this skylight that fell
The accident will not delay the conr-
plction of the building as this skylight
can be repaired without interfering with
the other work.
The damage is estimated at about s., 900.
II is confined 10 the Skyisht and no one
was i'm the building when it fell.
