Adopted.
EIGHTEEN WERE SUBMITTED
A Partisan Architect Carries Away the First
Prizs-Ihe Choice OF the COMMITTEES
Approved.
EIGHTEEN WERE SUBMITTED

The committee who have been cogitatiug
over the competitive plans of the new
French Hospital which have been sub
mitted by local and outside architects met
last night at the old offices of the Equitable
Insurance Company. at the corner OF Mont-
gomery and California streets, for final
decision.
There were in all eighteen plans OF the
main building submitted. but many OF the
competing architects added ampNfied speci-
fications relative to the interior arrange
ments for ventlating, heating and the like.
which added greatly to the difficulties of
the committee Ia the final selection.
The new hospital Will be truly magnifi-
cent structure and will cost upward of
100000, and Is to occupy lot on the cor
ner OF Point Lobos and Fifth avenues. COOK
24o in size, which was purchased for the
purposes about five years ago for $50, 600
The present hospital Is located on Bryant
street and has been sold for $4,000.
The com0ittee on the selection of the
plan consists of the following gentlemen:
PRESIDENT. Henry Martin; vice,presldsnt.
and q. eros. MD: Messrs. Hainaue,
BoZio, st. Denis. Robinet, A. Legallet.
Sarthow. r. Chartrey. V. Marchebout.
Daniel Levy. DIR. Bazan and DR.. Pischl.
III oIucl W StiIluidie INC dIcnltectS, prizes
oil 5000 and $500 were offered for the two
best, and as anticipated the competition
was very spirited. The committee found
itself with an embarrassment of riches, and
the display OF plans was truly magnificent.
1t was designed that everything should be
subordinated to the practical needs of hos
pital and that the expenditure should be
lavished, II at all, on the interior arrange
ments rather than upon exterior display.
The committee were very happily dis
appointed III finding how beautiful q s.ruc-
ture could be built for the sum which has
been placed at their disposal, and their
choice when erected will prove a splendid
addition to San Franciseo's most elegant
structures.
The first prize is from the studio of NJ.
Goustiaux OF Paris, who worked in con-
junction with Mooser, the well-Known local
architect The design is that OF a two
story built in the pavilion style, covering
the entire block and with towers and wings
giving a fine impression of the exterior
beauties, which will distinguish the struc-
ture when 1t Is complete. Isolated wards
for different classes of diseases are provided,
while the details Of ventilation and heating
are to be up to the latest devices of science.
Work on the new hospital will be under
taken next spring, and IL is said that the
building, when ready for occupancy, will
be entirely free from debt.
The second prize. was won by K. Deperre
Of this city.
Avery large number OF the French colony
were present last night and expressed
great satisfaction with the choice made by
the committee.

years he welded an influence in the British
Parliament by the splendor of his elo-
quence, and the power of his intellect.
Grattan SAYS of him:
"Upon the whole there was in this man
something that could create, subvert or re-
form; an understanding, spirit and an elo-
quence to summon mankind to society, or
to break the bonds of slavery asunder, and
to rule the wilderness of free minds with
unbounded authority, something that could
establish or overwhelm empire. and strike
. blow in the world that should Iesound
through its history"
Contrasts With Former Statesmen.
What would Thomas Jefferson think Of a
Senate composed of members who were con-
trolled by professional politicians? What
wonld he think of alleged free citizens who
fairly rush over each other to put men in
the highest offices whose fame rests on their
ability to handle the primaries, to set up
delegates for their own use, to bamboozle
the masses by all the arts ofthe demagogue?
Daniel Webster in his capacity of Secre-
tary of State, and by order of President
Harrison, issued a circular letter for the
purpose of abating the corrupting abuse Of
bringing the patronage of the Government
into conflict with the freedom of elections.
The letter distinctly stated ''that partisan
interference in popular elections, whether
of State officers or officers of the Govern
ment, and for whomsoever, OF against
whomsoever it may be exercised, or the pay
ment of any contribution or assessment on
salaries or official Compensation for party or
election purposes, will be regarded by the
Presidentas a cause for removal"
This high tone taken by the first Presi-
dent Harrison and Webster must seem very
funny to the present administration, whose
appointments are so carefully made with a
view to the future. But times have changed
since Daniel Webster was General Harri-
son right bower.
More Politics and Less Statesmanship.
Partisan politics are more in fashion now
than in those early days when statesmen
were more intent upon making a reputation
by their public services than bv the tricks of
politics and the slavery of partv States
men then studied political economy. they
gave their minds to the solution of public
questions, they worked for the country.
1t was told of Caleb Gushing that he was
one of ''tEe most incessant students that
ever lived" 1t was his daily habit when
not called off by business to study from II
to Is hours a day. He was always investi-
eating questions of science, knotty points
of law. or devoting himself to mastery of
the ideas of the philosophers He was we'll
posted upon every question that came up
in Congress and was a most effective
speaker He could dress down the blatant
Southerners with force as stunning and
sarcasm as cutting as the "old man elo-
quent" John Quincy Adams, who showed
himself giant in controversy, and who, in
combined and bitter assault upon himself
by the fire eaters of the slave States, came
off victor, while they groveled in the dust.
Where are the equals of these men now?

A curious pin is shown above. 1t re-
posed in the neck-scarf of Hallett Borrowe
when he arrived from Europe and its pecu-
liar shape and dull color would not recon-
mend it to the casual observer, but its ma
terial is peculiarly apropos to the duel
story. Two years ago, at Bernardsville, N.
j., Borrowe underwent a surgical operation
aid had removed from his right knee a bull
let which had been encysted there for three
years When he received the wound it was
thought dangerous to remove the bullet,
and as it did not inconvenience him it was
left there. 1t afterward caused trouble, and
its removal followed. Borrowe had it
mounted as scarfpin and wore it con-
stantly. The story as to how he was shot
has never been told. In 1887. however, q
year after his class was graduated at Column
bia, he went abroad. In Brussels, it is
said, he had an encounter with a man who
dared Borrowe to fight a duel He was
only a youngster at the time, but a sturdy
one. Finding he could not get out of the
affair, the meeting took place and Borrowe
was hit in the knee. The matter was kept
quiet and nothing further came of it. Bor-
rowe cherishes the pin and the queer-shaped
bullet which was fattened against the bone
in his leg.

Henry knew that 1 had anything to do
with it.
