Some Timely Suggestions About the Choies
of Collars ON Houses.
To The Indopendsnt:
Al this 10 houss painting time many poo
pie must DO thinking about the ohoice OF
%colors. Last year ! saw a new fame house
painted white with lomon.yellow trim
mings. The effect was rsma kably har-
monious and beautiful. ] can see how the
wrong shade would produos \ dismal re-
sult. but In this case there WAS just enough
warmth and life In tho yellow 10 relieve
the dense w%hitensss. Not very many years
ago white houses were everywhere. TIL ON
came the architect. II. IL. Richardson, and
dull .~lifelsss oolors. Hut it Is pleasing to
see the old fashion reviving. That emit.
usnt authority Mrs. Van Rsnnsalaer, has
recently come forth with q plea for tho
white house. Tho Worlds fair IL all
white. It II In truth the white city"

the subject OF color has been given the in
telli0ent consideration that il deserves.
Aftsr two years OF discussion md expssi-
mont by able artists and after trying ono

used In mural decoration, tho plain white
ha0 bean chosen.
On the basis that art. like business,
means finding The true reason for what 10

those which arc SPREAD before ~ In nature.
But u IL obvious that careful diserlmina-
ton 10 necessary. for II may truthfnlly DO
said that nature uses every color. For in
stance. tho dead shades of winter set tho
example for the lifeless colors now used
everywhere for painting houses. And 10 IL
ives that green was used for the window

neither case Is the example an admirable
one. II tho grass or surface Of tho earth

THE POST SITE ACCEPTED.
Secretary Of War Lamont Directs
That the Work OF Construc-
ton Be Begun.
The Plans OF tho Quartermaster'e
Department Are Already
Well Advanced
Mrjos Marshall II Making the Prsliml.
nary Arrangements for Early and
Active Operations.

The good news that the attorney general
had approved tho title deeds to tbs mill
tsry post grounds was followed yesterday
by tho announcement from Washington
that the secretary Of war had officially 40
ospted the site and directed the quarter
master general to proceed with the work
Of constr notion ii once. The first news Of
the order was received late yesterday af-
ternoon BY a telegram from Major Magin-
mis- to Mr.. Robert L. McCu!loh az follows,
"secretsry of war accepts the site and in
struots quarternaster general TO proceed
with the construction Of tho post"
This order removes the last obstacle in
the way of starting the york. While suoh
notion on tho part of the department. had
been looked for. it had been feared by some
that in the completion OF details with re-
gard to transfers of water rights. ETC., there
might be some further delay. All the gov
ernment requirements had been 80 promptly
and fully met, however. that the authors
ties at Washington could take no excep-
tions, and Secretary Lamont's Instructions
TO 20 ahead dispelled tho last doubt.
In the quartermastet-general' Office at
Washington the plans for the post have
been well advanced In anticipation Of the
acceptance Of the site and there will be no
delay in that office. Major Marshall. quar-
termsster at Helena. received notice some
days ~ that an ambulance for the use Of
officers In going over tho grounds, and to
and from the CITY. had been shipped to
him. Horses have been purchased and Or
dsrs with regard to other material have
also been received BY the major. and every
thing indicates On early beginning Of oper-
atoms on q large scale. II 10 probable that
ono or two companies Of soldiers will be
sent hero TO guard the government property
as aoon as a considerable quantity Of ma
terA,l is on hand.
Secretary Lamont, IL Is expected, will
Wait Helena on a tour of inspection during
the summer in company with Gen. Merritt
and officers of the quartermaster-Reneral
department.

KEEPING VERY QUIET.
Nevertheless the Union Pacific Strikers
Mean Business.

OMAHA, April 1S.-The action of the
molders' union last night in refusing to
sanction the strike Of the Union Pacific
shopmeI put something Of n damper on the
latter, but none of them returned to work
this morning and there are no additions to
the ranks. Everything is quiet about the
shops. No effort has yet been made TO fill
the strikers places.
In fact. outside Of the almost complete
abandonment of the bollcr-shop in the
Union Pacific yards. casual visitors to the
different shops would hardly have consid-
cred to-day that one of the largest walkOuts
in the history Of the system had been inau-
gurated. Several of the machinists who
went out yesterday went back to work this
morning. and IN the boiler-shop the helpers
and apprentices, with a boiler-maker or
two remained at their tasks. The refusal
OF the moldeTs and coremakers TO join the
strikers was so unexpected that it dazed the
other ironworkers.
Master Mechanic Manning thought that
while the walkout would be greatly re-
GREETED 1t would materially help to reduce
expenses. which the company had been
forced to do in some way.
CHEYENNE, April 1S.-A meeting OF the
shop men was held last night. at which the
holermakers and maelinists' apprentices
decided to join the strikers, and this morn
ing they did not go TO work. The strikers
are still orderly and quiet.

THE SOLAR CORONA.
SchaeberIe Said to Have Verified His
Theory.

LICK OBSERVATORY. April ia cipher
telegram received from Professor Schae-
berle in Chile. informs us that the Lick
Observatory expedition to observe the total
solar eclipse has been successful in every
respect The mechanical theory of the
solar corona formed by Professor Schae-
berle has been verified.
A drawing of the corona Of April 16, 1892,
was published by him in January last.
with prediction what this corona was to
be like, and l understand his telegram to
mean that the picture made by him months
ago was true representation of the actual
corona visible at the eclipse This is an i'm
portant verifcation Of the very far-reaching
theory.
The expansion of solar corona was first
photographed at the California eclipse of
January l, 1889, and fully described in the
Lick Observatory report of that eclipse. It's
existence was doubted By various European
astronomers, and the cloudy weather did
not allow it to be plainly photographed at
the eclipse of December, 1889
Now, however, Professor Schaebqrle has
telegraphed that it has been again success
fully photographed al his station high up in
the mountains.
Fifty photographs have been secured by
Professor Schaeberle and his assistants.
using three different telescopes. One of
these instruments gives an image of the
sun four inches in diameter, and the corona
covers plate is by % inches. The whole
programme was satisfactorily carried out.
II is only proper TO add the expenses Of
the Lick Observatory expedition were gen.
erously provided for by gift from Mrs.
Senator Hearst of California, to whom
science thus owes a new debt.
