FINE EMBROlpERlES.
The Exhibit by American Women Mt the
Worlds Fair.

The Exhibit b. American Women Mt the
Worlds Fair.
The following agreeable comments upon
the needlew6rk OF American women, as
seen ut Chicago, occur in The Decorator
and Furnisher.
The American he's a greater freedom In
following out her own fancies and original
designs than the English woman or the
Frenchwoman. In grace her work re
sembles that of the latter. Yet she Is less
hampered by the traditions of the I,ouises
and of the renaissance. She is given to
conventionalixing natural forms, such as
the rose, the fnaidenhair fern, even the
native grace Of our maize, rather than the
airiness OF the rococo period or the ribbon
outlines and cupids Of an earlier date. In
other words, the American woman Is less
hampered by precedent than the women OF
older nations. She has the aerial delicacy
OF a country of sunshine and brightness.
In linens the American section OF the
Woman's building shows the usual deli
cate and graceful forms and light elegance
that characterize our countrywomen.
Instead Of using imported linens many OF
the ladies Of Chicago now use an "Acadian
cloth" or "cajun" woven by the descend
ants Of the Acadians in New Orleans and
other parts Of Louisiana. IL is OF course
hand woven and isnot only extremely dura-
BILE, but fadeless. IL comes in shades of
pale blue and buff and Is delightful ma
terial for the needle.
Tablecloths Of dark blue linen are
wrought with white thread in short stitch
or In long stitch and others done in split
filoselle In renaissance patterns. In fact,
these designs seem TO have rejuvenescence,
judging by the displays in foreign exhibits
whether seen In the Woman's building or
elsewhere. Whiteon white is seldom found
In these sections. Among Irish embroid-
cries and those Of our own countrywomen
white Is more often found than among
specimens from other countries

cent law giving jurisdiction TO the district

1t has been said till il says itself that
Whittier was the peoples poet. This is
true; but he was more than that. He was
the post Of broad humanity, and he was
the poet of "A living faith His songs Of
freedom, which perhaps in his hearts
depths he cherished more than any other
phase Of his life's work, were superb out
bursts. He sang them rs the prophets Of
Israel spoke In their holy frances. The
spirit Of God constrained him. He was a
literary Hebrew OF course il scarcely need
be said that he was no HELENE. The Hell
lene does not trouble himself about
causes" In Whittier the sense Of moral
responsibility awoke his genius
His "artless art" as il has been well
called, was best developed in his later
years, when the freed slave and the saved
country gave an interval of rest to that un-
compromising New England conscience
which is vaguely labeled Puritan by the
outside intelligence Of London, Paris or
New York, and which is liable to make the
greatest failures and the greatest successes
in American literature. Elizabeth Stuart

The Old Testament records show-not-
withstanding the various revisions through
which these venerated books have passed
many indications Of animal worship
among the lsraelites, which must have
lasted for ages before the prohibition in
culcated in the second line OF the deca-
logue was formulated. At a comparatively
late date Jehovah was worshiped under
the popular symbol Of a bull, while the
twelve oxen UNFOLDING the laver in Solo
mons temple, as well IA the horns adorn
ing the altar, were drawn from the preva,
lent bull worship"
Modern research has also proved that the
cherubim were represented In the form Of
winged bulls. NJ Lenormant, in his 10,
nous book on the Beginnings Of History"
says that, during the time Of the kings and
prophets, most assuredly the cherubim,
as there described, are animals Mrs

UNDERGROUND RAILWAYS.
How Berlin Proposes to Solve the Problem
of Rapid Transit.

How Berlin Proposes to Solve the Problem
of Rapid Transit.
Railroads on the surface, railroads in
the air and railroads underground have
been tried in the great cities, and their
relative advantages are still hotly dis
puted by engineers and the public. New
York and Brooklyn are completely
''mashed" on their elevated roads. All
they want is an improvement of the sys-
TEN TO permit Of more trains at the busy
hours and one more road to supply
rapid transit from the city hall region
straight to the north end of the city.
London seems to be equally well salts
fed with her wonderful underground
system, and now Berlin has declared her
intention to abolish surface tracks and
put all the lines under ground.
In truth, the conditions are different.
The trolley and electric motor systems
would not do at all in the busy sections
of Berlin or New York, and the London
omnibuses on Broadway or Park row
would be simply ridiculous. Even in
the German capital, with its placid,
home loving and phlegmatic people, there
were counted within sixteen hours on
the corner of Friedrich strasse and Inter
den Linden 1901 foot pao ngers and
10, 470 vehicles, and ON the Potsdamer-
platz 81, 200 foot passengers and II, 1863
vehicles. Every year social philosophers
protest against the mad rush of people
TO the cities" and every year the rush is
greater.
The Berlin electric company intimates
that the necessary tunnels will cost
$212, 800 per mile, as under the city at a
depth of from ten to twenty feet has al
ready been constructed a great labyrinth
Of gas and sewer pipes and telegraph
and telephone wires, while the bed Of a
broad and deep river would appear to be
an insuperable obstacle. But London
has overcome almost equal obstacles,
and since November, 1890, electric mo
tors have been introduced in that part
Of the tunnel which connects the city
with the southern suburbs. The result
exceeded the most sanguine expecta-
tons. All the difficulties which the steam
engines produced were removed at once
by this change.
An additional difficulty in Berlin, how
ever, is that the citizens will not submit
| to have the streets torn up even tempo
rarily, and so a new system Of tunneling
must be adopted Railroad Director
Mackinson has recently invented ma
chine especially for this kind Of work,
which is considered a marvellous success.
As far as the unscientific mind can com
prehend his system, it seems TO consist
mainly of driving each separate section
Of the tunnel forward into the earth.

STATION OF THE BERLIN UNDERGROUND
RAILWAY.

These sections are big, solid rings,
made of the best iron and steel, which
are 80 constructed that they can be fitted
together Theoretically before the final
completion of the tunnel. One ring after
the other is driven into the earth, while
contrivances particularly prepared for
this purpose haul away the dirt and
sand as if some magical power were at
work. Thick external and internal lay
ers Of cement protect the metal, all Of
which will constitute a mighty structure
against which all the powers Of the un-
derworld will not be able to prevail
Two tunnels will be laid, with single
track in each, so as as TO avoid all posi-
BILE danger Of collisions. AS TO elevated
roads, the Berliners will not listen 10 the
proposition, as they want privacy in
their homes and quiet both at home and
cafe, and maybe they are right.

The President informs the public of the
action of the Ways and Means Committee
upon internal revenue and income taxation
before that committee has met and acted
as whole, and before any decision by it
on these subjects has been communicated
by the committee itself to Congress or to
the public. But while he thus unreservedy
takes the people into his confidence in re-
spect to the affairs of the Ways and Means
Committee. the President maintains a Ha-
waiian policy of dense secrecy in respect
to his own instructions to Minister Willis
a matter in respect to which the dear peo-
pie take an unlimited amount of interest
and about which they are entitled to full

Hawaiian remarks on this particular point
are as ambiguous as the utterances of the

confidential about his own Hawaiian acts
and opinions as about the unreported acts

free delivery post offices. and commends, in
connection Herewith, both the Civil Service
Commission and the Postmaster General
Looking backward. the President sees that
the law embodying this reform found its
way to our statute book more from fear of
the popular sentiment existing in its favor
than from any love for the reform itself on
the part of Legislators" Looking forward. he
declares that beneath all the vagaries and
sublimated theories which are attracted to
It. there underlies this reform a sturdy
common-sense principle not only suited to
this mundane sphere. but whose application
our people are more and more recognizing
to be absolutely essential to the most sue
cessful operation OF their government, if not
TO its perpetuity"
