stand them, which is evidence that there
is a new scholarship allied to the material
development of the age. The trail of the
pessimstic tendency OF a class of alleged
political economists who hold professor
ships with new names is observable in
theme and lecture. Three million OF pa
triots founded the Republic, but seventy
millions of money-seekers now occupy it, "
is a sentence which constitutes the refrain
of this new philosophy written in minor
key, but the young men and women who
put it into their graduating orations will
mourn it and learn better. Such topics as
the Ethics of Life, '"The Analysis of
the Past, Present and Future" continue to
hold places as themes, but fortunately they
are not so frequent as years ago. Several
young men told Congress what to do, and
one bold and wise youth discourses on
president McKinley's Duty" That the
young man who selected Mud" for his
theme was permitted to speak indicates
progress and originality.

ground, the picturesque towers Of the Dem
ison Hotel. If the view is taken just after
sunset the effect is enhanced by the soften
ing shadows while the outlines are cut
against the sky like cameo. 1t is one of
the pictures that members of the younger
generation, who scarcely heed it now, will
recall in after years as one of the indelible
impressions of their early home.
But with all these bits of beauty and the
multitude of photographers, amateur and
professional. nothing is more difficult to
find than photographs that adequately rep
resent the town. In many other cities trav-
elers have pictures of the distinguishing
features almost thrust upon them. Here
they must be searched for and are apt to
be unsatisfactory if found. We who live
here, however, do not need the pictures
while we have the reality. And it is worth
while to study this possession and discover
its artistic charms.

ApICrUREsaUE CITY.

Does everybody know what picturesque
town this is in ways distinct from its park
like residence streets, whose attractions all
recognize? In the business quarter are doz-
ems of views quite as pleasing to the
beauty-loving eye as those in foreign cities
made famous by artists who have admiring-
ly reproduced them on canvas. The arch
itecturaI contrasts OF the new and old
buildings. with the purposely Irregular
roofs of some of the newer ones show a
pleasing picture from almost any stand
point The individual structures may not be
fine specimens of architecture in them
selves, but the combination of color the
diversity of outlines and the peculiar eff
fects produced by the diagonal streets
make what artists call Charming bits
when they see the like in far-away cities.
1t is a pretty vista down Virginia avenue,
with the viaduct and beyond it the church
tower and glimpses of green-pretty for
those who retain enough presence of mind
after lodging street cars at the Washing
ton-street corner TO observe it. The court
house and the Statehouse, both of which
have lost the effect of newness and might
have stood where they are for half a cen
fury, make admirable backgrounds. A
glimpse of the Surgical Institute, with its
towers and angles, is pleasantly unexpected
after the square business blocks. Several of
the downtown churches with their ivied
walls are worth looking at; the Blind In
stitute is worth giving thanks for when ii
is remembered that it might have been
built like a factory. The monument looms
grandly, but its base is only a promise OF
what shall be- and the tourist on Circle
street is wise to lift his eyes beyond. What
he sees will repay him. From the front OF
the Iron Hall block, looking across to thk
northeast, is visible a scene that may well
be retained in the memory. On one side is
the beautiful stone church, on the other
the great green wall of the Journal build.
