An ugly little artist had an ugly little dream,
OF IN ugly little world built on an ugly little
scheme;

10 make ugly little pictures Of that world 80
Ho drew ugly little figures Just like evil little
imps,
With ugly little bodies Of the hue Of parboiled
shrtmps,
Each dark Gehenna phantom or unnatural
stygtan sport"
He Hmned ugly little msnnikins as pale as tall
low dips.
And ugly unsexed women with protuberant
under lips,
With ugly scarlet tresses, or with sable por-
ter's knots,
And with noses like satyr's and with eyes
like tnky blots
He daubed ugly little backgrounds, all a.
meaningless as mud
And ugly little sunsets all suggesting fro and
blood;
And ugly little arabesoues which little seemed
to mean,
Yet wero commonly suggestive Of the cruel

little heels,

The report of Mr.. Wheelwright, which
tho commissioners considered, COM
menced as follows:
Boston, Oct. Il, 1895.
To the Board of State and Capitol Com,
missioners Of the State Of Minnesota:
Gentlemen: Forty-one designs were
submitted to tho second competition
for the state capitol building.
The average merits Of these designs
was much higher than in the previous
competition, and in the plans of the
five designs which recommended for
premiums are, in their adaptation to
the special needs of the building, SUI
perior to the best plan presented in the
former competition. It is evident that
the study of the designs submitted in
that competition. and the criticism
thereon, has been of real service in the
production of the designs now present.
ed for your consideration.
While the main object Of a competi-
ton is to give comparative basis for
the choice of an architect by this COM
petition, among the designs l recon-
mend as the best, you will find types,
OF buildings which, with certain adj
justment of plan and external treat
ment, would give you capitol build
ing well suited to your practical needs
and to the chosen site.
At my request, the names of The COM
petitors were concealed from me until
I had rendered my decision to your
commission.
In forming my Judgment of the re-
spective merits OF the designs, I have
been guided by the instructions to

a slightly marked plinth to break the
transition.
II it wore thought desirable to give
the building 9 more varied and broken
exterior, the plan leads itself to e. roof
ing similar to that shown in No. 50.
In closing he said:
I have judged the submitted designs
as preliminary and suggestive sketches,
and not as working drawings, Al
though certain objectionable qualities
in external design should preclude =
design from any award Of premium,
the main point upon which to Judge Of
the capabilities Of the competitors,
where q meritorious external treatment
is presented, is the skill shown and
carried out with all the alteration Of
detail and sculptural ornament that
has been indicated. Where such rich
ness Of ornamentation appeared to me
essential to q fittlng result from any of
the designs, this consideration has
weighed with me In my award.

building in the East, which is some

judge from such data az have been
able to gather, q building Of the accom-
mediation You suggest in your program.

der an inclusive contract, which should
be subject to the customary method of
payment for work done, and il the
building does not much exceed an area
of 8, 200, 900 feet, it can be built for ST..

If the building is to be built under
several contracts, by which the several
portions of the work are constructed
through long term of years. I know
Of no reliable basis for making an es-

Very respectfully yours,

When the final ballot had been taken
the commissioners adopted the follow

Resolved. That the board, having
carefully examined al of tho designs
submitted in this (second) competition,
and having been thoroughly advised
respect to each Of them, hereby makes

Washington, D. c.. Feb 12.-The
meeting of the Senate Committee on
Finance today resulted il decision.
by vote Of six 10 five, to report a
measure for the unrestricted coinage
of silver on the basis Of the provis-
ions of the ninth section Of the finan-
cial bill introduced by Senator Jones,
of Arkansas. This section was amend
ed in several particulars and as agreed
is as follows:
THAT from and after the passage
of this, the secretary of the treasury
is authorized and directed to receive
at any United States mint from any
citizen of the United States, silver
bullion Of standard dnenesS and coin
the same into silver dollars of 4123a
grains each. The seigniorage of said
bullion shall belong TO the United
States and shall be the difference be-
tween the coming value thereof and
the market price of the bullion in New
York on the date the presentation is
made. and all expenditures for coin
ing done under the provisions of this
act shall be paid cut Of said seigniCr-
age, and the secretary of the treas
such bullion standard silver dollars
equal in amount to the price thereof
as aforesaid; and whenever the said
coin herein provided for shall be re-
ceived into the treasury, certificates
may be issued thereon in the manner
now provided by law
The vote on the motion to report
this section as amended was as fCi-
lows:
Yeas-Voorhees, Harris, Vest, Jones
(ArD; Jones CNeva1al; White.
Nays-McPherson, Morrill, Sherman,
Allison and Aldricn.
There was comparatively little dis
cussion of the question after the sus-
gestion for such q report was made,
and it soon became apparent thai
| there was an understanding among
members Of the majority Of the COM
mittee as to the line Of action to be
pursued, and they afterwards stated
that they had held a conference and
agreed upon their course. The Re
publican members offered no substi-
tute and no distractions in the way of
securing a vote.
1t was also agreed to hold a special
meeting next Friday for the consid-
Grafton of the bill removing the diff
ferential duty of one-tenth of a cent
on sugar imported from bounty-pay-
ing countries
Republican members of the commit
tee expressed some surprise at the
calling Of the meeting today. They
had supposed that on account of the
indisposition of Chairman Voorhees,,
there would be no meeting and they
had received assurance to this effect,
but it would appear that after the de-
cision was reached to report a bill
Senator Voorhees, was prevailed upon
to issue the call, which was not re-
ceived until early today As a con-
sequence some of the Republican mem
