LONDON'S DISGRACE.
SIR CHARLES WARREN AND HIS PACK
OF HOUNDS.

After He Tried Them by Letting Them
Loose on His Own Trail He Turned Them
Out to Follow Other Trails, and They
Got Away-A Horrible Letter.
London had begun to forget all about the
horrible Whitechapel murders, when one
morning not long ago the great metropolis
was shaken from the innermost recesses Of
the city to the elegant suburbs that have
been lately built for the occupation Of the
wealthy and cultivated by the announcement
that Sir Charles Warren's dogs were loose.
Sir Charles had for some time been train
ing these dogs, with a view to having them
track and tree the human fiend who has been
operating in Whitechapel, whenever that
shrewd ghou should kill another victim.
All the world remembers how much Sir
Charles banked upon his bloodhounds and
how he made himself the laughing stock of
everybody by letting them chase his august
person one very early morning not long ago.
One would imagine that his experience on
that occasion would have shaken his faith in
the wisdom of the scheme, for, so the ac-
count runs, they only succeeded in making
even a fair showing one time in three.
The fact is, as almost any one conversant
with the employment of hounds for tracking

On the sth of May Mr.. Clay brought in his

President Taylor died, and his successor
favored the other wing of the Wing party.
During August and early September the
measures of compromise were separately
passed through congress, the noted fugitive
slave law exciting most criticism in the
north. Utah territory was organized by the
act of Sept. o, 1850, and President Fillmore
appointed Brigham Young governor on the
solemn assurance of Mormon representatives
that plural marriage was neither doctrine
nor practice of that church AT the very
time his commission as governor was written
Brigham Young had eight "wives"
Out of this long session two men came
with peculiar honor, Senators Houston and
Rusk, of Texas. They managed with such
adroitness as to induce the government to
pay Texas 1000, 900 for "consenting to the
separate organization of New Mexico" at the
same time leaving to Texas the ownership of
all lands within her borders and securing
the payment of that states debt by the
general government They certainly de-
served well of their constituents. Yet
neither was conspicuously southern" in
his views, and Houston, in particular,
openly ridiculed the claims of Calhoun and
Davis. The Texas men were in congress
''for business" as Houston said, and they
certainly made the business a success.
No sooner had congress adjourned than
the mass of the people north and south &C.
quiesced in the compromise measures and
testified their qualification in public ad-
dresses and rejoicings. Both political par

McCosh's now house. When he set out to
design an art museum at cost of about
Sl50,0O0 he decided to make it thoroughly
classic in the style of architecture, and, as
far as possible, to make it present the beau
ties of the Italian school.
The front is $50 feet long The depth
varies, for at each end there is wing and in
the middle, at the rear, there is an extension.
The house is three stories high, the art gall
lery proper being on the third floor, with an
immense skyiight at the top. The second
floor will be used for the collections. Here
will be placed the William G. Prime collec-
ton of ceramics, which vas presented to
Princeton on condition that tireproof build
ing should be built in which to store them.
Other collections also will be placed on the
second floor. On the first the chief display
will be of bronzes. The top story, where the
pictures will be hung, is 25 feet high; each Of
the others is Is feet.
The building is fireproof 1t is built of
brick, soft brown in color, and speckled
with iron filings. The cornice is of cut stone
and the roof of tile. The entrance is through
broad arched doorway, which is approached
by an imposing double stone stoop. A stone
terrace wall rams the length of the building,
and before the doorway there is a circular
roadway You may see in the shade on each
side of the broad stone step figure like that
of a man. The one on the left is Michael
Angeles David" that on the right is Done
tellos "St. George" The original of each is
In Florence. Above the arch of the entrance
are two Florentine lamps Mr.. Brown will
some time later have some old shields from
Italy on the now vacant space above the
doorway.
The facade is not a copy Of any particular
building in Italy, but is thoroughly Italian
In tone. The face Of the structure proclaims
the purpose of the hall-a home for art
The two statues on the steps strengthen the
idea and the two Florentine lamps will illu-
inmate it. Chief, however, of these feat
ures is the freze which surrounds the front
and the two sides. You may see where i
runs, just beneath the tiled roof. This i
an exact copy of the Parthenon frieze. Tn
casts came from the British museum The
frieze itself will be cast i'll terra Gotta. The
model casts will be placed in the museum
Among all the figures on the two sides and
the one front wall there is not duplication.
The strip of terra Gotta will be a little more
than three feet wide, and will in itself be a
study in art.

The present is a period OF building art
museums and galleries, and Of general and
growing interest in everything pertaining to
Art, with big A. This being the case, of
course no self respecting institution of learn
ing can afford to be without an art annex Of
some sort.
Princeton is the latest college to acquire an
art museum, and they have been at work on
the building which is to hold it for some
time. 1t is expected that the structure will
be completed by next summer. Tho new
building stands on the high ground back Of
Wing hall toward the presidents house. IT
will be the first of a new quadrangle.
The art museum owes its erection largely
to the energy Of Allan Marquand, son of
Henry G. Marquand. Allan Marquand Is
the professor Of archaeology, and lectures on

by him. The building committee are Moses

Red handed, ruthless, furtive, unerect,
It's murderous crme-the Nemesis OF neglect!
Sir Charles Warren Is a most extraordinary
person, il we may believe the English news
paper stories about him. He doesn't seem to
have the slightest qualification for the posi-
ton of chief of police and the office came to
him only because he was born with patrician
blood in his veins
He has been a soldier, and a fairly good
one, too-serving abroad-and therein, per-
haps, lies much of the secret Of his i'll success
II he had been willing to act simply as a
figure head, letting other and more capable
men attend to the executive part-the real
work Of the department-matters would prob
ably have never reached such a pass as to
render the Whitechapel murders possible.
But, having won some reputation as a
fighter of savages, he felt that he knew just
how to preserve order in city largely COM
posed of civilized people. Brooking no in
reference with his plan Of conducting the
affairs Of the office of chief of police on the
lines of military campaign, and fully i'm
bued with the idea that the chief end Of the
police is to suppress free speech and all SYM
patty with the Irish, whom he hates so bit
terly, he devoted his energies to closing
public places to speakers who are dissatisfied
with the existing order of things in England
