ADDITIONS TO OUR SCULPTURE.
The Lafayette Monument and the Adams
Tomb-Iheir Artistic Value.

The Lafayette Monument and the Adams
Tomb-Iheir Artistic Value.
American Architect.
There have been erected recently In the Dis
trict of Columbia two notable pieces Of
sculpture. Neither had formal unveiing.
One, the monument to Lafayette did not re-
ceive dedication to the public on its erection,
because no appropriation for the purpose was
made by Congress- The Adams tomb. as a
token Of grief erected in memory of a de-
parted beloved one, required no public cere-
mony at its erection. 1t stands in Rock Creek
Cemetery. The Lafayette monument was
modelled by two of the most prominent French
sculptors. The base was designed by the
sculptors, in the American example the stone
surroundings were designed by an architect,
Mr.. Stanford White. The effect produced
shows the advantage OF architect and sculptor
working together in monumental work.
The Lafayette Monument is the most
ambitious effort of the kind in the city of
Washington, grouping together, as it does,
five historical, and three ideal or suggestive
characters in one harmonious group.
four friends just beneath him are typical
French gentlemen of their period, graceful,
dignifed, polite. They are natural In their
poses and presumably good ikenesses of the
patriots represented. At the base is a female
figure handing sword to Lafayette. The
figure is full Of action and life. In the case
OF this figure the stonework is apparently def
cient as the figure gives one the impression
that it might slide from the ledge on which it
is supported. Many comments are made on
the apparently abnormal size of the heads of
the two cherubs. They may be properly pro-
portioned, but they certainly convey disagree
able impression. The monument as a whole
is decidedly the most successful piece of out
door sculpture we have yet had in the city;
the figures are natural, the grouping is good
and the effect of the whole is pleasing, and
think the effect will be lasting

have suspicious, they should keep them to
themselves until they can get proof Of their
truth. This is the fair and manly way to do.
Subordinate officials who have the confidence
of the community, and whose lives are open
to all, should not be hauled up to explain
away the mere suspicious of their superiors,
especially when the latter are known to be,
and ought to know themselves to be, of a sus-
picious nature. A great deal of the evil some
people think they see in this world is really
hallucination due to disordered livers.
The people of Washington, or at least vast
majority Of them,wa the Government admin
istered with regularity, honesty, and vigor.
They want the best kind of government they
can get. They believe they can get good gov
ernment without resorting to un-American.
not to say unmanly, methods, ana without the
backbting, the suspicion, the mystery, and the
perpetual squabbling which has marked the
career Of the reform members of the present
Board of Commissioners. A doctor who can't
cut off a wen without worrying the patient
into fit by fumbling his instruments and
making false motions had better not under
take the operation at all. He ought to turn
the job over to some one with steadier nerves,
more tact, and greater expertness.

OFF FOR INDIANAPOLIS.
The Fencibles Depart Amid the Cheers of

The Fencibles Depart Amid the Cheers of
Many Admirers.
Amid the cheers and huzzas of large
crowd Of enthusiastic friends, the National
Fencibles boarded the 7:4O train of the Penn
sylyania Railroad last night to depart for
fields where they expect to win new glory and
honors. Long before o'clock, the appointed
time for meeting at the armory, the scene was
one OF busy activity. A few finishing touches
were being put here, and the last
packing OF equipments was being done there
Shortly after o'clock Captain Domer gave
the word to "Fall in and the prize team was
soon drawn up ready to march. Outside of
the armory there was large gathering, and
as the popular company appeared the
whole assemblage broke into applause
and cheers. The boys were dressed
in their natty fatigue uniforms and
bore on their backs their well-filled knapsacks
and company equipments AS they marched
down the Avenue to Sixth street, they made
fine appearance. The crowd which followed
them could not restrain their ardor and burst
forth into demonstration of enthusiasm. The
Fencibles entered the depot carrying at their
head flag from which fioated three streamers
emblematical of the prizes they had won. The
crowd fingered until the train moved out and
then gave them a rousing send-off. The
Fencibles will reach indianapolis tonight
about 10 o'clock. The encampment opens on
Tuesday evening and the drilling begins the
next day. 1t is not known ON exactly which
day ''our boys" will compete.

THERE are very few men who have not in
their own experience seen some good causes
ruined by supporters who advocated them
with hot zeal, but without discretion or in
teIligence. 1t is fair to suppose that the
present Board of District Commissioners are
jealous in the cause of good government
The Engineer Commissioner, Colonel Robert
although appointed to look specially after
the streets and sewers, has frequently pro-
claimed himself burningly anxious to set
to rights everything that was wrong in the
administration of affairs in the District, and
he has publicly declared that much was
wrong. He has done this, it is true, in very
general terms and in way that has led to
the belief that his statements were based on
suspicion rather than on evidence. He has
attempted on several occasions to carry out
his schemes Of reform, but little has come of
these attempts. But in the process he has
managed to stir up great deal of unrest and
bitterness by the methods he has pursued.
These methods have not commended them
selves to citizens generally, and they
have not been justified by ultimate success
They have had tendency to bring the present
form of District Government into disrepute,
and to justify the charge frequently heard
that it is un-Americau. They have caused
confusion and,uncertainty in several depart
ments of the District Government notably in
the Police Department, and necessarily the
operations of these departments have been
robbed of their former regularity and force
A chief cause of the trouble has been the air
of mystery with which the movements to re-
form things have invariably been surrounded
They have not been open and above board, as
they should be. They have been carried on in
secrecy, for the most part; and secrecy about
Government affairs is especially offensive to
the people. If subordinate officials are dere-
lict in their duties, their superors, in proof of
their own manliness and in justice to the ac-
cused, ought to say so frankly and give their
subordinates the chance to explain and to
defend themselves. There should be
no secrecy and mystery about these
matters, for the truth is bound to come
out sooner or later. And the sooner It does
come out the less likelihood will there be of
wild surmises and maliciouslies getting afoat.

The small boy will be allowed full ewing
to show his patriotism on the Fourth of July in
this city IL he does not explode his fireworks
In such places as would be dangerous to the
surrounding property. Though the District
law prohibits the use Of fireworks in the citv.
there is general understanding that If dne
precautions are taken the enthusiastic sons Of
America will not be interfered with. This
plan was found to be an advantageous one
for the reason that when the law was strjctlv
enforced the youngsters would go into the
yards and back buildings to have their cele-
brstion with the result that many fires oc-
Cured When the firecrackers are set off in
the street there is less danger. The Fire De-
partment on that day is particularly alert and
Chlet Parrist takes every precaution to prevent
any conflagrations 1t is generally believed
that the celebration Of the day this year by
fireworks will be more general than usual
The Police Department has already issued
over a thousand permits to dealers, giving
them the right to sell fireworks for a month
The small boys are warned, however, that
any violations of the law before or after the
Fourth will be strictly prohibited by the
police. Thus far no permits have been issued
for parades on the Fourth, and 1t is not likely
that any will occur. The day is one of pic
mics, and every shady nook In the immediate
suburbs is generally occupied by some jolly
party OF picnicers. Major Moore Issues par
tcular orders to his mounted men to see that
these parties are not disturbed by roughs.

gaws in general. This is not a mere matter of
opinion; IL people will look it straight in the
face, they will see at once it is a matter of
fact. Nobody would endure diamonds If
they were not SO costly. Nobody does endure
them when they are paste and pinchbeck. 1t
is the knowledge that they mean so much
money expended which renders them fash
ionable and endurable at all. Precisely SINH
lar bits of shining glass, with facets Just as
clear cut and lustre just as brilliant, when
made of good honest paste, are universally
secuted as in the most atrocious style posi-
ble
"But the diamond" everybody says, " is SO
much purer, so much brighter, so much
clearer, so much more luminous! Its
sheen is finer than any imitation, its lucidity
deeper, more transparent, more scintillating!n
You think so? Well, as matter of fact, that is
not true; and every expert will tell you SO.
The truth is, only such experts can discern by
mere inspection the difference between gem
OF the first weter and good paste facsimile.
AS mere aesthetic question, the one is worth,
to 30 out OF 100 of us, every bit as much as
the other; and neither, to man of good taste,

THERE is avery strong and steadily deepen
ing impression that it would be good thing
for the District IL the engineering third of
the District Government would attend
strictly and exclusively to its engineering
business. The people of the District have no
means of knowing whether the engineering
third is success in its own line or not, as
it has, as far as can be learned, never given
any attention to engineering matters. But
the people of the District seem to be rapidly
reaching the conclusion that the engineering
third is CONSPICUOUS failure in attending to
other peoples business. to which it has with
inexplicable persstency devoted itself ever
since the Board of Commissioners was made
up as at present. Now, wont the Engineer
Commissioner in justice to himself, kindly
devote himself for while to the special bust
ness for which he was designated. 1t is an
untried field for him, and he may be able to
demonstrate that he can do something with
out making mess Of 1t.

YEERE is good deal of solid sense in VIII
Representative Oates, of Alabama said the
other day about the Democrats and the ALI
aDce in the South. The Democrats cannot
afford TO daily with movement which has for
its object the establishment of the sub-treas-
ury and land loan schemes These schemes
are utterly at war with Democratic doctrine,
and if the Alliance adheres to them 1t must
be left to work out its destiny. 1t cannot re-
ceiye any aid from Democrats who place the
good Of the country above mere temporary
success. If the Alliance were to come into
power tomorrow, the men who would be
called 10 Office would be compelled to aban-
don the sub-treasury scheme as hopelessly i'm
practicable If the Democrats of the South
take Mr.. Oates advice, and make the Alli-
ance understand now that they can expect
nothing from them as long as they adhere to
the sub-treasury and land loan schemes it
viii save great deal OF trouble in the future
The farmers have real cause to complain, and
The Alliance movement has in it much that
deserves encouragement from those who
place the good of the whole people above mar
row party considerations; but the sub-treasury
scheme is bound to array against 1t all the
conservative sentiment of the country. 1t is
the duty OF Democrats to oppose that and all
similar socialistic schemes, and the sooner the
ngbt begins the better.
