Attorney General Poe, OF MARYLAND,
visited Washington yesterday TO confer
with Secretary OF state Foster in regard
10 the recent arrest Of DIR. Georgt OF the
Swiss legation. at Bay Ridge The AT
torney General wants to arrange through
the secretary for a meeting or CONFER
ence with the charge d'affairs OF the
Swiss legation. that he may personally
explain the circumstances of the arrest,
and that il was really done through gross
Ignorance Secretary Foster does not
seem indisposed 10 intercede for such q
conference. The department, in behalf
OF the federal government, has already
apologized TO the Swiss Government, and
the sentiment of officials at Washington
apparently is in favor of Furnishing the
state or county officials who were so
grossly ignorant that they did not know
what Legation" meant. The indications
are that the federal power will not be
interposed to save the local officials from
the penalties they ignorantly incurred
The Swiss charge affairs has not call

submitted his formal complaint, accom-
panied by the declaration that he intend
ed 10 prosecute the persons who had So

Painted Houses the Healthiest.

Statistics show that people live longer
in brick house than in stone, and that
wooden houses are the healthiest. This
suggests the idea of using paint on ma
sonary. An authority states that 100
years ago 1t was fashionable to paint
brick buildings white, and many charm
ing structures remain to attest the value
of a coat of paint in preserving the ma
sonary, and its pleasant, home-like effect
is foil to the vines and shrubs with
which even city houses are now COM
monty adorned. fit should prove, as
might be easily ascertained, that the paint
ed brick houses preserve the inhabitants
more effectually from sickness and pre-
mature death than the Imprinted ones. 1t
would be worth while TO revive the an
cient fashion, and, with our greater re
sources in the way of materials and Ideas
