ARTISTS WORK ON EXHIBITION.
Absence of Fad Subjects Is Notable
Feature of the Annual Display

The rain yesterday did more than moisten
the enthusiasm of thepublic in the collection
OF local art work at the Cosmos Club.
The attendance was small. People dropped
in two or three at a time Fair weather
will, however, bring out the crowd, as these
exhibitions have always been successes in
points of both spectators and exhibits
One OF the artists said yesterday that
people would notice the absence of fad
subjects American art, he thinks, is
drifting i'll that direction, because people
must have fads. Where one artist sue
ceeds in idealzing fad he is sure to be
followed by hundreds with no special
talent for that kind of work, and hence
the wide smear of fad oils and pastelle
over the face of the art world. Strange
to say, there is no "Trilby'' in the Wash
ington Salon and no Love and Life"
Trilby's foot does not even appear. The
exhibitions will be every day this week
from 1890 a. m, until $50 p. m.

"HELLO" FOR LESS MONEY
Standard Telephone Company Will
Furnish Cheaper Service.
Ex-Commissioner Hine Declares the New
Concern Will Rent Phone for
About Thirty Dollars

eff we do not prove to the community
that we deserve its support then we can
not expect that support. If we do not
prove to the authorities that we mean
business, that we have capital aud good
faith in us, then we need not expect the
authorities to assist us.''
This was said yesterday afternoon by
ex-Commissioner Hine, who will be I'M
doubleday the president of the branch or
ganization of the Standard Telephone Com
pany, which is to have its offices in Rich
mond, washington, and Baltimore. One of
the results OF this company when in oper
alton, it is claimed. VIII be TO reduce the
charges for telephone service from rates
running all the way from 500 to $240
per annum to $50 or $40 year.
Mr. Hine said that it was altogether too
soon to speak of details, for the branch
company would not be organized formal lily
for some days yet. a S To the character
and financial ability OF the hackers of the
undertaking in the parent company, he said
there could be no question, nor could there
be any as to the proposed directors In the
company, to do business in and for Wash
ington.
Among the latter he named ex-Congress-
man PoindeXter, now in real estate here;
w w. Pierce, of the pension office; w j.
Meyer, OF Gait K Co, flour and feed men;
Frank Hume, grocer; w. o. DeDnison, real
estate; c. Heurich, the brewer; A Hamil-
ton, grocers; Nicholson Shea, grocer; Ed
ward Graves. OF Hayenner & Co; f. S.
Johnson, president of the Citizens National
Bank.
Mr.. Hine was asked il he had considered
the objections which had been urged against
the feasibility OF charters, franchises and
other alleged obstacles.
Yes, he said, 1--WE have considered them
all, but we are quite satisfied that not one
of the obstacles is insuperable OF course,
we anticipate opposition, but, as1 have
said, we are sure we can safety the
authorities that our undertaking is for the
public interest; aud when we shall have
shown that we are certain that we viii be
permitted to go ahead
You propose to go before the Commits
sioners?''
Yes: and show them that we have an
abundance of moueySo carry forward the
scheme in good faith. As to the opposition
have seen il we can't overcome that then
we are not entitled TO aueXistence.
Il, perhaps, can say this, that we shall
be able to show that in certain cities,
Boston, for instance, the companies which
do business under the parent company can
put telephone service in operation al a
first cost of a Little more than 81 TO each
consumer; and the actual cost 10 each con-
sumner varies from 500 TO S200."
Mr.. Hine was asked when there would
be some material evidences OF the progress
of the company. He said that the organ
iZation would be effected in less than
two weeks, and that actual work would be
begun as early after that as practicable.
After the organization headquarters will
be established here, probably in the Mertz
building. For the present the operations
viii be directed at the residence of Mr..
Hine on Prospect Hill.
