Mast, Conkling and Curtis.

MAST, COnkIluk hhu OuEshse
Il is to be suspected that some OF
Tom Nast's wittiest work with his
marvellous pencil was printed, not
published"-was intended simply to
crafty his friends-and never met the
eyes Of the general public. Not long
ago, In looking over the album OF q
lady who for years was social leader
at Washington, / came across con-
tribution Of Nast's which was as Ell
fective In its way as any Of the car
toons which have made his name IA
nous.
He wanted to impress upon the Lady
that Washington life had been too
much for him and did 80 by drawing
a capital full length picture OF himself
as he appeared walking along the ave.
nue.. What gave the picture point and
rendered 1t irresistible was the fact
that the back Of his head was where
his face ought to be-in other WORDS
Washington had turned his head.
suppose the politicians still recall
Roscoe Conkling's famous allusion TO
the great cartoonist in his Rochester
speech dedicated" to George William
Curtis. Mr.. Curtis at the time was the
editor of Harper's Weekly, position
which he had held for many years. In
the course of his philippe Mr.. Conkling
took occasion to refer to The Weekly
and, although Mr.. Curtis sat listening
to him, he described it simply as 1.-THE
paper made famous by the pencil OF
Matthew York Mail and Express.

TRAGEDIES of the Grand Canyon.

Tragic stories are told Of men who
have lost their lives In the search for
precious metals which may lie hidden
or uncovered, says Harriet Monroe In
The Atlantic. The great primeval
food cut its broad V through all the
strata of rock, with all their veins OF
metallic ore, down to the earliest
shapeless mass, leaving in Its wake the
terraced temples and towers which
seem to have been planned by some
architect of divinest genius to guard
their inaccessible treasures till the end
of time. And the river, rising far to
the north among mountains rich III
mineral, has been washing for ages
the sands away and depositing thus
gold and silver and lead in the still
creyices Of the inaccessible chasm.
Here the earth laughs at her human
master and bids him find her wealth
II he dare and bear it away If he can.
A young Californian who accepted the
challenge and set forth upon the turgid
water to sift its sands for gold never
emerged with his hapless men to tell
the story of his search. Only near the
brink of the cleft are a few miners
burrowing for copper and sending their
ore I'D to the rim on the backs of hardy
burros, as who should prick the noun
tain with a pin or measure the ocean
with q cup.

For the Babies.

There is DO better medicine for the
battles than Chamberlain's Cough Rem
edy. Its pleasant taste and prompt
and effectual cures make il a favorlte
with mothers aud small children. Ii
quickly cures their coughs and colds,

consequences. II also cures Group ano

cures Group, but when given as soon al
the croupy cough appears, will prevent
the attack. In cases of whooplng cough
it liquefes the tough mucus, making
it easier to expectorate, and lessons

THE BRIDGES.

General J. M. Wilson, chief of en-
gineers Of the army, forwarded re.
port yesterday to the Senate committee
on the District of Columbia concerning
proposed improvements by the Balti-
more and Potomac Railroad. His rec
ommendatiOn is against the construc-
ton of two bridges across tho Potomac,
as the bill now before the Senate pro-
vides, and agains. the use of a consider
abe area on the Potomac fats for the
cOmpaDy's cars.
A report by Colonel Allen, who is in
charge of Potomac river improvements,
is forwarded by General Wilson to the
committee on the SUBJECT of bridging
the Potomac. Colonel Allen is strong.
ly against the proposition to build two
bridges 10 place OF Long bridge, one
for the use of the railroad and one for
the use of vehicles aud pedestrians. He
declares that this would be objection
able from every point of view and would
not be advisable from any point Of view.
Colonel Allen says the case should be
met by the construction of combined
railroad and highway bridge structure
across the Virginia channel, the drive
way entering Potomac Park at or about
park grade ut q reasonable distance
from the railroad track and connecting
with the spans and bridge across the
Washington and Virginia channels by
suitable inclines, tie lowest pert of the
portion OF Long bridge across Virginia
channel to afford clear head room Of
at least eighteen feet above mean low
tide.
Col. Allen, as chairman of the board
of engineer officers and architects ap.
pointed by the Secretary OF War "tO
consider and report upon the relative
merits of the plans submitted for a
bridge to be constructed over the Poto-
mac river at Washington, as memorial
to American PATRIOTISM" has issued q
call for meeting of that board next
Monday morning at the United States
engineer Office, for the purpose OF al
ranging for the Moderation of the
questions submitted to il. Four de.
signs for the proposed memorial bridge
have teen submitted, and are now
awaiting the action of the board. These
designs are the work of Messrs. George
s. Morrison, Lefiert l.. Buck, William
II. Burr aud William H. Hutton, all
OF New York city. These gentlemen
are recogDjz d ss the sblest bridge en-
giDeers lie tnls country.
Uuder an arrangement made with
the war department, the competing en-
gineers will be paid for their services
in the order of merit, as follows:
First, 1920; second. II, 100; third,
81 900, and fourth, 5000, making a
total of "a 200 aud leaving a balance OF
$500 of the appropriation for other nee
essary expenses in connection with pre-
pairing the plans and report for submis-
sion 20 Congress.
Acung under the orders Of the Sec.
rotary OF War, the bridge board will
give careful consideration to the plans
presented, will determine their order OF
merit and will report which plan, If any,
in the judgment of the board, should
be adopted for the bridge to be COL
structed."

FINED.-Messrs. Julius and Joseph
Dre,tus were fined in the Mayors
C.urt this morning for failing to keep a
r,cord of their transactions 10 the pur-
c,a.e Of articles in the junk business.
Wm. Grigsby, colored employee, who
,urchased stolen articles without the
knowledge OF his employers. was also
fled. These cases grew out of the ar
re-, of Frank Jeffries for stealing cer-
ts,n articles from Messrs. Peter Altche-
son and Joseph Moore, which articles,
valuable and expensive, were found by
the police on the premises OF Messrs.
D,eyfus, and which were not mentioned
on the books of the firm. The law has
not heretofore been eDfor ed, but the
theits committed by boys and others for
the purpose of getting little change
for stolen articles call for its rigid sp-
NJ cation, and hereafter the police de-
parlment will be in possession ofrecords
10 and them 10 their work. The Mayor,
i'm concluding the case, took occasion to
compliment Lieut.. Smith and ths Of
fcrrs associated with him for their
