such occasions.
THE TRADE DISPLAY.
Itwas asked what merchants had
agreed to make trade displays, and
Harry Wood replied that his commit
tee had failed to call on any of them
and insisted that the Times be request
ed to publish a notice requesting
merchants and others to prepare floats
for the parade.
After discussion 1t was decided that
the only proper thing to do was to
have the subcommittee call on mer-
chants and solicit trade displays. Harry
Alexander was added to the commit
tee and it met this morning at 10
o'clock.
SCHOOL CHILDREN IN PARADE.
It was announced that Superinten-
dent Putnam was anxious for the
school children to participate in the
parade. That statement WAS made af-
ter the chairman had asked if the pu-
pills of the public schools could not be
Induced to attend. Every body was
glad to learn that they would partici-
pate.
After the report of Chairman Nc
Cutcheon of the finance committee had
been heard it was the unanimous YER
dict that ample funds were in sight to
defrsy all expenses of the big celebra-
ton.
Chairman Davis suggested that a
platform ought to be erected on the
site of the new city hall for the use OF
the visitors, orators etc. Harry Alex

which can be designed especially for
the occasion.
Some of the costumes to be made to
order are very handsome and brilliant
and will be rented for the occasion at
a cost of from 50 to So. Already more
than twenty of the most SNOWY and
stylish have been ordered and from
the present outlook Is seems that 1t
| will be hard matter to supply the
demand.
Some people pretended to think that
! the mask ball would be q cheap affair
and not worth Witnessing. Such will
find themselves mistaken when the
brilliant throng of masqueraders ap-
pear on the ball room floor the night

have alreadyi been ordered Indicate
| that the crowd will be particularly
anxious to get the finest possible and
play as possible.
Among the tw enty costumes already
ordered are, some representing princes,
| Mikados, clowns, and devils. The
wom en- who have ordered chose the re-
presentations of morning and evening
stars, tam borine girls. Gypsy maidens
and the like. Most Of these are slight

enhancing and dazzling. The masks
worn will be plain black dominOs and

people contemplated attending the
cele bration and ball from there. He

No one would be abit surprised to

of the celebration.
In addition to the many costumes
that will be rented there is lit dOuo'
but that many more will be made al
home and by fashionable dressmakers
especially for the occas on.
MANY FLOATS PROCURED.
The subcommittee on parade, with
II. r. Wood as chairman, whose duty
it is to solicit trade display floats for
the parade from merchants and man
ufacturers, was out hard at work thi
morning and met with astonishing sue
cess.
! Fourteen floats were promised by a
many firms and there is prospect tia
as many more will be procured Mon.

make the rounds.
Mos, of the businCs men are be ertil,

and will be worth travelling hundred

DIR. Yandell said he did not believe

felt confident that On arm an Krakauer,

tion that will ever be held i'm this
city will be held from the 23rd IN
the 25th of this month, during the
National Peace Jubilee. Exten-
si7e preparations are being made
for n swell time and many seats
have already been sold to witness
the grand pageant. There will
doubtless be thousand come from
all over the country To see this
great celebration and as May
~ the best time of tie year
to see the sights in Washington,
those who anticipate trip here
this summer should not fail TO
come IN time Cor the Peace Jubi-
lee. 1t will be worth going miles
to see. And we venture the asser-
tion there will be more people in the
city on those dates than were ever
here before, and probably more
than will ever be here again. Ow-
ing to the cheap excursions that
are being run from different points
along the c. & o., trip can be
made here at very nominal cost
and those who wish to see the larg.
est, most magnificent and grandest
celebration ever given in this
country would do well to come
and see the sights.
There are many other subjects
here which furnish interesting
reading matter, but as time and
space are both rather limited, an
early conclusion will probably de-
light the faithful reader who has
found interest enough in these few
remarks to peruse them to the end.

SOME INTERESTING POINTS
FOR THE WISE AND
OTHERWISE.
IRON our regular correspondent.

ED. ADVANCE My former let
ters to the ADVANCE have been
confined principally to describing
the different sights that one may
see here, interspersed with a little
nonsense and politics. Those who
have been in Washington and paid
visit TO the National Museum
and Smithsonian Institute will
better appreciate what | may say
concerning these institutions than
those who have never been fortun.
ate enough to inspect the different
sights In these institutions.
The Smithsonian Institution
was established and has been
maintained on an endowment by
James Smithson, an Englishman,
who, in 1929 bequeathed his entire
property ito the United States of
America, to found at Washington,
ID. c., under the name of the
Smithsonian Institution, an estab-
lishment tor the increase and diff
fusion of knowledge amoug men,"
The corner stone of the building
was laid on May l, 1847, and it is
of twelfth century Norman archi-
lecture. Il has twelve towers of
varying heights, making it one of
the most picturesque of all the
public buildings, and is located in
the Mall, between Seventh aud
Eleventh Streets, one of the most
beautiful places in the city.
Inside this institution may be
seen a panel of Limoges faience
in which is pictured an allegory of
the Genius of Man, subduing to
his service the forces of nature,
fire and water, and which is typi-
fled by the rushing stream, the
storm, volcano and lightning.

variety OF objects that may be seen
ON going through the Smithsonian
would be n great undertaking
aud require a great deal more time
and space than could be conven-
iently devoted TO ii by the writer.
The institution is well worth Wis
iting and the visitor will be amply
repaid for the time consumed on
a trip through IL. The Smithson-
ian must be seen TO be appre-
ciated.
The National Museum, which is
under the direction of the Smith
sonian, ia said TO date it's real
starting point from the Centennial
IN Philadelphia, 1876. The great
variety and valuable material pre-
sented to this government by for
eign governments aud exhibitors
had reached an enormous accumu-
lation, and for years it was exhIb-
tied in the Patent Office.
The National Museum building
is 324 feet square and covers over
two acres. The collections have
been derived principally through
Government agencies aud explor-
ing expeditions. The building
had reached that stage Of compile
ton that in 1881 the inaugural
ball of President Garfield was held
in ii.
The main entrance Is In the
north front, and in this hall the
visitor may view the relics of
Washington, Lincoln and Grant.
Many of the Washington relics
were the gift Of the Government
and purchased by Congress for
something like fifty thousand dol
lars from the heirs.
One of the principal and most
unique exhibits in this building
is the great variety of musical in.
struments. The late DR.. Goode,
curator of the museum, took great
pains to make this collection COM
plete, and he has succeeded 30 we'll
that the public is indebted to him
for one of the best collections in
this line ever exhibited.

been gathered from all quarters of
the globe. Here the visitor ~,

THE RAILROAD FEVER.

From the Pittsburg Times:
West Virginia has the railroad
fever perhaps worse than any other
State in the Union. North and
South, in nearly every valley that
is not too forbldding. schemes are
laid and from these many schemes
more or less new work will come.
1t 10 said that SO new roads are
projected. If a dozen of them
materialize it will make West Vir-
ginia an uncommonly busy section
of the Union for the next score Of
years, and probably in that time
put tho State into o new class.
These new railroads have in
sight traffic that assures profit
able business for years. West Vir.
ginia is the only hope Of the oil
man, it is tho only present hope OF
the oil man, it is the State in which
the biggest tim Der deals are taking
place, and West Virginia the coal
development is taking a sys-
tematic and expansive turn. West
Virginia has possessed undeveloped
wealth, and it's presence was known
for many years, but the question
was to get 1T out. Railroads hest
tated about climbing mountains
simply in the hope Of what
freight could be found when in
other directions easy grades and
greater density of population held
out inducements. Now, however,
1T is changed, and railroads are
learning that where the freight is
business can be created. Few
States have a brighter future than
this one of many mountains.

One Of tho most disgracetul
things connected with the war in
Philippines WAS the detention, this
week. at Hong Kong, by British
officials. Of a steamship on the way
from Manila to San Francisco,
with United States troops. The
steamship is one Of those carrying
the British flag which are under
charter ss trOopships, and the
couse Of her detention was that she
had 400 more men aboard than she
should have had. The answer to
this charge by the War Department
and by OTIS, was that she had only
one more man aboard on the re-
turn trip than che carried from
San Francisco. In other words,
the British officials at Hong Kong
are more confederate Of the welfare
of our soldiers than our own Off
cials at San Francisco and Manila,
who allowed this ship to take on
400 more men than she is allowed
by the British maritime law to
carry, were. Surely that is enough
TO bring bushes Of shame to any
Americans face, unless he is past
being ashamed of official incompe-
tency and negligence.
