CPittsburg Dispatch.}


The tomb of Sir CIOudesley Shovel,
which was erected by Queen Anne, is the
work of an eccentric sculptor.
U9on this tomb lies the effigy of the
great English sailor. His enjoy, as An
derson once said, is represented by The
ngure of beau. dressed in a long peri
wig. and occupying a position of recum-
Dency upon velvet cushion. The figure
Is partly clad in ancient Roman armOr
and the feet are encased in sandals. The
grea test mistake noticeable in the effigy
Is the large curly Wig. which is as con-
splcuous as it is out of place on a figure
in Roman attire. The sculptor evidently
had Il fascination for wigs, and was
therefore unmindful of criticism.
a mistake of similar character was
mace on the tomb of Sheffield, Duke of
buckingham, whose effigy has been al
lowed to recline in Roman armor. while
the effiSy of his wife. the daughter of
King James II, stands beside II, weeping

General Sir George Holes ehigy is
decked out in a representation of Roman

are other instances of glaring incongru-
tiles Among them is that of the eftigy

Church Music.
(Philadelphia Press.l

4 y
Professor II. w. Parker, the composer
who has the chair of music at Yale.
seems to have stirred things UP con-
siderabiy by his attack on church hymn
tunes, made at a meeting of the Epis-
cCpal club in Boston. What Professor
Parker said about the triviality, mawk-
isbness and unsuitablity of MANY
hymn tunes is all true enough. but the
coarse fiippancy of his attack rather
mar its effects. His address reads very
like Professor Barrett WendeTs famous
attack on Milton, which brought down
on the Harvard professor the condem-
nation even of those who agreed more
or less with what he said, but objected
to the vulgarity of its presensa ton. The
subject of church music in general. and
the specific question as to the need of
reforms in hymn tunes, both call for
serious, thoughtful treatment, and this
the subject hardly received from the
composer-professor In fact, the light
ness Of the attack may lead many TO
believe the hymn tunes are much
abused, and are not so bad after all.
There is no question that there is a
great opportunity for a hymn tune re-
former, but it is not clear that Profess
sor Parker would make a very good
committeeman, despite his exuberant
zeal
