A Curious Accident,

A curious accident, which unhappily
has since proved fatal, befell ~ Boutet,
an artist, residing in the Avenue Victor
Hugo, on Saturday morning. NJ. Boutet
wns working in his studio, when, incon-
venienced by the sun, he asked his bonnie

covering over the glass. AS the womaR

seated. Oddly enough she sustained no
injury worth mentioning. NJ. Bout&,
however, was not so fortunate. A piece
Of the broken glass struck HIM on the

horseback alone. Lieut.. Assayef rode
one horse and led another, on the Turco,

little over fifty miles q G2y, ana COW

about twenty shilIings day. If it can
be done as cheap as this, equestrian tours

Goshen. the Giant. Had a Wife.

Somerville. n. j.. Special 10 the New York Tribune
1t is likely that the will of Col. Routh Goshen,
Barnum's giant who died last week at Middle
bush, n. j., will be offered for probate in the
surrogate's court at Somervile next Monday
The giant left nearly all his property to his
adopted daughter, and a small legacy to a
friend named Wickoff, who had attended him
during his last illness. If Col. GOshen's stories
of his vast wealth had any foundation in fact
his adopted daughter would be a rich woman
If the will is held valid; but, I'M
fortunately, the tales, like many others
told by Goshen as he stretched his huge
limbs on the grass of his farm at Clyde turn
out to be OF the stuff that dreams are made Of
aud the whole estate will be sworn probably
under $1,000. In getting his will drawn up,
Goshen seems to have overlooked the fact that
his divorce suit, began three years ago, failed,
and that he had a wife at the time of his death
Mrs. Mary l.. Goshen, now living at Elgin. ILL.,,
remembered 1t, however. She has filed a cav
eat. and will claim her rights as a widow. Her
husband once gave her the Clyde property but
after the close OF the divorce suit. when the
couple separated, he bought it back from her.
She thinks she would like to recover it now,
and her lawer, Mr.. Van Cleef, has assured her
that this Is a case in which she may eat her
cake, and have it, too.

Simplicity.

Charles Dudley Warner III the Atlantic for March
l am not sure whether simplicity is matter
of nature or of cultivation. Barbarous nature
likes display, excessive ornament, and when
We have arrived at the nobly simple, the per-
feet proportion, We are always likely to relapse
into the confused and the complicated. The
most cultivated men we know are the simplest
in manners, in taste in their style. 1t is Il note
OF some OF the purest modern writers that they
avoid comparisons, SMILES and even too much
use OF metaphor. But the mass of men are
always relapsing into the tswdry and over
ornamented. 1t is a characteristic of youth,
and it seems also to be characteristic of over
development. Literature. in any language,
has no sooner arrived at the highest vigor of
simple expression than it begins to run into
prettiness, conceits, over-elaborstion. This is
a fact which may be verified by studying differ
ent periods, from classic literature to our own
day.
1t is the same with architecture The classic
Greek runs into the excessive elaboration of the
Roman period, the Gothic into the famboyant,
and so on. We have had several attacks of
architectural measles in this country, which
have left the land spotted all over with houses
in bad taste. Instead Of developing the col
onial simplicity on lines of dignity and har-
mony to modern use, we stuck ON the pseudo
classic, we broke out in the mansard, we broke
ell up into the whimsicalities of the so-called
Queen Anne, without regard to climate or COM
fort. The eve speedily tires Of all these things.
1t is positive relief to look at an old colonial
mansion, even if it is as plain as a barn. What
the eye demands 10 simple lines, proportion,
harmony in mass, dignity; above all. adapta-
ton to use. And what we must have also is in
divlduality IN house and in furniture; that
makes the city, the village, picturesque and in
teresting. The highest thing in architecture,
as in literature, is the development of individu-
atty in simplicity.

forced to stand on the pavement outside during
the entire ceremony. This was. of course,
according to program. Then the five wise

FROM WHICH TAULBEE, OF KENTUCKY, ADRoITLY
REMOVES SOME OF THE POLISH.
Special to the Cincinnati Gazette.
Representative Taulbee, Of Kentucky, de-
serves great credit for the courage and ability
with which he has conducted the investigation
ordered by the House into the transactions Of
the Commissioners of the District in the pur-
chase of real estate for public purposes. Mr..
Baker, of New York, member of the COM
mittee. and his associates. other than Mr.. Taul-
bee, have from the first manifested a deter
mnation to whitewash the Commissioners.
The testimony taken clearly established the
irregularities and questionable transactions
which were charged against the Commissioners
by The EVENING STAR. In fact. the evidence
throughout made stronger case than The STAR
presented. In spite of this Mr.. Baker decorated
the Commissioners with more liberal coat of
whitewash than has been put on by any congress
sional artist for long time. To-day Bakers
moves on the floor were open to the severest
criticism. He attempted by every means in his
power to prevent Mr.. Taulbee from informing
the House that the ma jority of the committee
had based its report on garbled testimony, and
when he supposed he had gained his point and
shut out MIR. Taulbee's minority report, he then,
in the most braZen manner moved to postpone
the whole case indefinitely.
This would have made the House a party to
the whitewash. Evidently this was intended
TO nave lts enect on the nomination OF
Commissioner Webb. now pending III the Sem
ate. But just at this point Taulbee very neatly
trapped Baker by helping the latter order the
previous question on the motion to postpone.
Baker jumped at this. forgetting, if he knew,
that this gave Taulbee Is minutes for debate.
He thus got the floor and read his report show
ing that the testimony in the possession of
Bakers committee had been grossly tempered
with after it was taken, and portions seriously
compromising the Commissioners had been
changed so as to give it a meaning exactly OPP
posite from that conveyed by the witnesses
The showing against the majority of the COM
mittee and the Commissioners was alike most
