My FESTIVAL.
The Mozart Association Thinking About
Having One.

II has not been positively decided yet
whether or not the Board of Governors Of
the Mozart Association will hold May festi-
val.
The music committee Of the board, ofwhich
Mr.. +. II. Archer is chairman. are hard at
work on the projected enterprise. but Mr..
Archer said last night to TINES reporter that
the committee as yet could not see their way
clearly.
The expense he said would be very great,
AID that they failed 10 support the last AZ
tempt as they should, and for that reason the
committee is dubious
Mr.. Archer's idea was that the only way
that festival could be assured was for a
guarantee fund TO be raised in advance: II
the festival is held it will last about three
days.
There will be a very large chorus, several
eminent sooists and o splendid orchestra OF
about forty-hye performers. II Is said that
Mr.. Stuart an accomplished director OF
Boston. will probably conduct the orchestra
and that the renowned festival director. Mr
Zerrahn. will have charge Of the choruses.
The orchestra will be made up Of, II is thought
of Richmond and Boston musicians, about
fifteen being Richmond men.
There will be no musical festival this year
either in Petersburg or Cincinnati, and 1t Is
believed that one in Richmond will attract a
large number of visitors.

GEORGE WASHINGTON

In 1894 there came 10 America n young
English artist, James Shgrples. who brought
with him a commission from Robert Cary 70
paint the portraits OF General and Mrs. Wash
ington. Robert Cary was confidential
friend of Washington, and was his mercantile
agent in London for the sale Of tobacco grown
on his estate During one of the sittings for
the portrait which Sharples painted. the Cen
eral himself discussed the possibility OF restor-
ing the portrait Of his mother Sharples told
him that there were persons IN London who
could remove the paint from the
old canvas 10 a new one and perfectly
preserve the likeness and the General
was finally persuaded 10 send il 10 England
for restoration. Sharpes soon returned to
England. and, is supposed took the portrait
with him. After the paint had been trans
ferred 10 a new canvas 1t was put INTO the
hands Of Bird A. Royal, academician, for fur
Their repairs. Lord Lyndhurst, the great
chancellor. was son OF C3peIy' the boston
PAINTER, was very fond OF art He visited
the wreck" while Bird was at work upon IT,
and asserted that Mlddleton's portrait Of
Mary made her 1.-THE greatest and most lovely
woman / ever looked upon" and that every
lineament Of Washingtons countenance is
seen and traced IN that of his mother" While
this portrait was in Birds possession Wash
ington died. and Colonel Cary paid Birds
charges and as il was unclaimed
by WashingtOns executive-possibly because
il was not remembered-he kept II in his own
house with the portraits Of General and Mrs.
Washington, and the three were always the
subject of much interest. and 1t remained ia
his possession until his death. Colonel Cary
was an old bachelor, and his property WAS in
herited by an unmarried brother and a sister
who had become Mrs. Edwardes.

THE NOW OF THE pErENsE.

Major Stringfellow then arose on behalf of
counsel for the defense and made the follow
ing statement:
II your Honor please, your duty in this pre-
liminary stage is that simply Of an examining
court and of course YOU look at the matter in
q different light from what jury would In
coming to final conclusion, rs 1t Is your posi-
ton merely TO examine and say whether there
is a slight suspicion Of guilt to cause that the
party should be sent on and not 10 pass upon
his guilt. We do not care To take up the time
of the court in an examination. not even so
far as to introduce our own testimony.
So far as we are concerned we are
entirely willing 10 rest the case after it
has been proven that these settlements
are never correct, after it has been proven
that five persons write upon these books:
after it has been proven that five persons have
access TO the cash drawer, and after there has
not been one word of proof that Mr.. Grymes
made an entry IN the Auditors books at all,
(because # yOu take his statement in part
which have never seen done-you must take
hls statement altogether and the only scin-
tilla OF proof that be made the entry is that
he SAID TO the Mayor that while the figures
looked rs II he made them. he must have been
asleep when they were made and he had no
recollection OF the matter at all. 1t is a sub
stantlal denial, aud no witness testified to the
contrary. And here We will submit the mat
ter 10 your Honor's decision.
