MAGAZINE NOTICES.

The Century for December falls into
the current of the Christmas feeling with
a number of features. First of all, it
has beautiful and appropriate special
cover. In addition to this there are five
full-page engravings of pictures by
American artists on religious themes,
besides a frontispiece of a beautiful
Madonna and Child by Dagnan-Bouveret
one of the choicest of the French artists,
and leader in the tendency to revive
the Christian sentiment in art. The
American artists thus contributing are
Simmons, Du Mond, Thayer, Miss Ma
comber, and Blashfield, the representa-
tive of the last being his Salon picture OF
1892, Ringing the Christmas Bells. There
are several poems and stories rejecting
the Christmas feeling, and more or less
relating to the holiday. These include
My Cousin Fanny, by Thomas Nelson
Page; Their Christmas Meeting, by
Florence Waters 5Snedeker; and dis
cussions of The Problem of Scientific
Study upon Religious Beliefs, by ID. ..
Williams; and of The Problem of Poverty
by Washington GLADDEN. and subjects re-
lating to child-life, such as Some Tene-
ment House Evils, by Lillian w. Belts
The Prevention of Blindness in infants,
by Swan M. Burnett, and series of
poems about children entitled Some
More Boys; by James Whitcomb Riley,
with illustrations by Kemble. The
Christmas element and the story element
are hardly more noticeable than the per-
sonal element, which is represented en-
tertainingly by four articles: IL Leaves
from the Autobiography of Tommaso
Salvini, in which the great tragedian re-
lates the "reminiscences of his youth and
his early experiences on the stage, with
Characterization of his master Modena
and of Adelaide Ristori; (2) the Rev.
Stopford A. Brooke contributes an arti-
Gle of personal Renaissance and criti-
cism, entitled Impressions of Browning
and his Art; and % an attractive anec-
dotal article by Ronald J. Mcneil on

The latest suggestion is that the work
of making a new tariff bill be turned
over to Mr.. Cleveland and his cabinet.
1t is not likely, however, to meet with
much favor, for the reason that bill
prepared in that way would put the
Congressman who did not approve of it
in the dilemma of having to choose be-
tween voting for it contrary to his con-
victions or putting himself in an attitude
of hostility to the administration. Such
choice would be an unpleasant one to
make at any time. but especially SO when
a great many offices were to be dis
tributed.

The Hon. William c. Whitney wants
a business mems commission ap-
pointed to take testimony and determine
how the Mckinley law can best be modi-
fed, and he wants the Republican SEN
ate to help the idea along. AS the whole
Democratic campaign was made upon
the assumption that the whole Mckinley
bill was fraud, that it was robbery
from beginning to end, it is difficult to
see what need there is for business
mems commission to investigate it. A
law that is robbery from beginning to
end ought to be repealed right away. An
attempt to modify it simply makes the
party who does it a partner in fraud. If
the Democrats really believed what they
said, the only honest course open to
them is to tear up the Mckinley law,
root and branch, at the earliest opportun-
ity.

THE COMING SESSION OF CONGRESS

The closing session of the Fifty-second
Congress begins today and expires on
the fourth of March. There is very
slight probability that any important
legislation will be enacted at this ses-
sion. The Democrats have been inviting
the Senate, which is Republican, to take
up and pass the tariff bills adopted by
the House at the last session, but there
is no expectation that the invitation will
be accepted. AS the next Congress will
be Democratic in both branches and the
executive Democratic also, Republicans
rightly insist that the Democrats shall
assume the whole responsibility for any
revision of the tariff which may be in
contemplation. The Democrats would
undoubtedly be pleased if some of this
responsibility could be put upon the Re-
publicans, but they are not likely to be
accommodated. Beyond the passage of
the appropriation bills for the support of
the government nothing will be accom-
plished this session, though there are
several important measures pending, like
the anti-option bill, which has already
The Portland daily press. [volume] (Portland, Me.) 1862-1921, 1892-12-05

been passed by the Senate, and the Tor
rey bankruptcy bill
The President message, it is now I'M
derstood, will be sent in tomorrow and
will be confined largely to a review of
his administration, the fact that he is so
soon to be succeeded by a Democratic
executive rendering it useless to make
suggestions in regard to leg islation.

PUBLIC BUILDINGS.
The next building in point Of architectural
pretensions is the government house-a very
large but plain two-storied building, facing an
extensive plaza, which ia covered with rank
grass like a meadow. This plaza is surrounded
by quaint. one-story and rows of old
mango trees, and in its center is tall, white
marble monument, erected in honor of some
famous Paranese warrior, but We must
beg you to excuse us from wading through
that tangled, painless and doubtless
snake-infested grass to discover his name.

The Paris Figaro devo.es a column OF space
to an alleged definite solution Of the problem
of aerial steerage Turpin, the originator of
me'inite and widely known as an ingenious and
practical inventor. has been giving his spare
time while in prison to solution Of the aerial
problem. Turpin. with three others, was sem
fenced to four years imprisonment about If
teen months ago for selling to the Armstrong
Gun Manufacturing Company the secret of the
manufacture Of melinite. which the French
government owned and wished to retain for
itself, it being new and powerful explosive.
Turpin was also sentenced TO pay n fine at the
same time and deprived of civil rights for five
years. Soon after entering prison he showed
an earnest desire to solve the problem of aerial
navigation and thereby hasten HE liberation by
giving the secret to the government. If the
Figaro story is correct Turpin has been entirely
successful and an aerial vessel built on his plans
could be navigated with.ease and steered in any
desired direction.
