Evening star., 1900-02-05

To the Editor of The Evening Star:
AS one having the interests Of Washing
ton at heart and wishing to see it beautiful
in the most artistic way,I am led by short
article recently printed in The Star contain
ing some criticisms by an Italian Sculptor
to say few words on the statuary subject.
1 entirely agree with him that there should
be other statuary besides military and
naval heroes, though these we'll deserve to
be perpetuated in bronze, even if not al
ways artistic Such statues do not appeal,
however, to the sense (Which all artists have.
and which every one should be educated
to have) of beauty, which is general term
and stands for a great deal. They there
fore, strictly speaking, do not beautify the
city. There should be other subjects. which
the artistic fraternity can easily suggest,
represented in bronze, and they should be
placed in prominent places. l think it un-
fortunate to place statuary in close proX-
unity to trees or shrubbery. Statues are of
hard material and outline and should be in
harmony in this respect with their sur
roundings A statue seen against the back
ground of a bare wall of some large build
ing is much more effective than viewed in
conjunction with swaying tree or bush, as.
for instance, compare the Hancock statue.
viewed from Pennsylvania avenue against
the large building in the rear. and the La
fayette statue in the square of that name,
both fine pieces of work. Not enough
money, l should say, is spent on pedestals
statues, the Lafayette having much the
advantage, and in proportion to size proba-
bly, cost more than the Hancock pedestal.
l would like to offer the suggestion that
one example Of the beautiful which we
have in the city, and which do not suppose
one-third of the Washington people ever
saw q refer to the Bartholdi fountain in
the Botanical Garden), should be taken
from its hiding place and put where it will
help beautify the city and lead the thoughts
of the people to higher artistic IDEALS as,
for instance. In the large open plaza at New
York avenue and 18th street, where multi
tudes could see it daily, and in full play
would certainly be as much appreciated as
1t is now, lost in the Botanical Garden
The latest addition in the statuary line
The Webster 1 do not propose to criti-
else, except as to Its position. Looking down
N street the statue is in direct confusion
with that of Scott. Is that wise? 1t has
often annoyed my sense of the artistic pro-
prfeties, and l have no doubt others have
had the same feeling; if not, they ought to
have. The site of the Lafayette statue was
altered for like reason. 1 am in thorough
sympathy with the idea of creating an
artistic commission to pass upon all future
beautifying of the city.

The colonel tells how. after long search.
the ford was found in a peculiar place,
directly under a bank eight or ten feet high,
and opposite the town. At 1870 IN. MAJ
Hawthorne, with Companies E and G of
the 10Th, crossed the river with cheer and
went into the enemys intrenchments. There
were no casualties in crossing. No sooner
did the enemy that the troops were
coming for a certainty than they began to
retreat and rapidly withdrew through the
town to the hills. In few minutes all the
troops had gotten across and occupied Sew
eIal companies were sent at once in pursuit
of the enemy, but they had obtained too
much start. The crossing was completed
and the town taken at IL o'clock. A Span

1000 strong, but Col. Sargent estimates
them at 800: forty of them being killed and

The officers and men under my command
behaved magnifcently throughout the bat
tie. Conspicuous bravery was apparent
everywhere. l saw no faltering and no
shirking. The officers walked up and
down the firing line almost continuously,
taking no cover whatever when there was
any work to be done. Maj. Hawthorne OF
the 18th displayed conspicuous bravery at
all times and under all circumstances, and
his battalion, Companies E, F, G and H, did
splendid work"
Maj. Bryon of the 2Ith is said to have
been cool and brave. and Maj. Slime of the
11th Cavalry is said to have done effective
work. Lieut.. Rowland S. Pike of the 18th
is accorded great credit for bringing
through the supply train under conditions
so adverse that Gen. Lawton did not think
it possible.
Capt. Owen T. Kenan of the Goth is rec
commended for brevet for gallantry and
pluck in fighting after having been
wounded. For fearless and gallant conduct
during the fight Col. Sargent also recon-
mends the promotion to second lieutenant

ADVERSE REPORT.
Health officer Recommends Rejection
of House Bill lib.

DR.. VIM. c. Woodward, the District
action on House bill 1113. entitled "a bill
to restore medical freedom to the people Of
the District Of Columbia and 1t Is under
stood that the Commissioners will so
recommend to the House District commit
tee
The proposed bill provides that "all citi-
zens of the District of sound mind, who are
and they are, entitled to the right and
privilege to select their own physicians to
employ the same and compensate them for
their services" and it proposes to repeal
all acts and parts of acts inconsistent
Herewith, and TO make it take effect from
its passage.
The measure is stated by the health Off
GER to be identical in terms with certain
bills heretofore introduced in Congress- and
that its object appears to be the removal
of all restrictions from the practice of med
icine in the District, a condition which, the
health officer says, he is informed does not
exist elsewhere in this country. In his
opinion, there is absolutely nothing to be
said in favor of the bill
1t is believed that the Commissioners will
state to the House District committee that
In their opinion 1t would be the greatest
misfortune should it become law, mas
much as 1t would, they are stated to be-
lieve, not only remove all safeguards to .the
individual in the matter of medical prac-
tice but utterly destroy the usefulness that

vide to the spread of contagious diseases

that any reputable physician would favor
