RUSKIN'S MONUMENT.

/ LEG monument which is now i'll
course of preparation fof he burial
place of John Ruskin in Coniston
churchyard is from design by Mr..
W. G. Collingwood of the type lately
revived from ancient models of the age
before the Norman conquest. This
early English model has been freely
adopted. in the belief that Mr. P.uskn
himself. if it was question Of one
form of headstone rather than another.
would have chosen something of the
kind. The cross is of the hard green
stone of the neighborhood supplied
from the quarries of Tilberthwaite, not
easy to carve, but likely to last practi-
cally for ever. and not liable to chip or
lose Its pleasant gray-green color. 1t Is
slender and tall but standing not more
than nine feet from the ground, The
base Is cut into the three Calvary steps,
as they are called, usual in such monu-
ments. On the side facing the grave
and looking east at the bottom Is fig
ure with a Tyre, representing Mr.. Rus
klns earliest works, poems, and the po-
etry of architecture. Above this in a
panel Of the interaced work so often
the dates 1S19-1900, the only lettering
thought necessary, for all the rest of the
story Is told in pictures.
Over the name is the figure of an ar
fist sketching, with the pines, about
which Mr. Ruskin wrote with such en-
thusiasm and the range of Mont
Blanc slightly indicated, and the rising
sum- which was his device, on the cover
of the first great work, Modern Paint
ers.' Above is the Lion of ST. Mark, for
his Stones of Venice and the Candle
stick Of the Tabernacle for Seven
Lamps The south side is filled with a
scroll of his favorite wild rose in bud,
blossom and fruit, and on the boughs
three of the creatures he wrote about
with affection in Loves Meinie" and
elsewhere, the squirrel and the robin
and the kingfisher This is meant to
symbolic his interest in natural histo-
ry. The west side, looking towards the
mountains, represents his ethical and
social teaching. At the bottom is the
receiving each his penny
from the master-"Unto this last"

in the middle "Fors Clavigera," the
Angel of Fate holding the club, key
and nail, which every reader of his
work will easily recognize Over that

The north side Is a simple interlaced
pattern. The cross-head on one side
bears the globe, symbolizing In those
old sculptures the Sun Of Righteous

A SIT LOUIS STATESMAN.

"Jim Butler, the big fellow from st.
Louis, who has been elected to the next
House of Representatives, is the lead
ing character in good story told out
our way" remarked John r. Mackliff,
an interesting reconteur from the
Mound City. who is guest at Cham
berlain's. II cannot vouch for the
truth of the narrative, but, as it runs,
Jim was making a speech in the late
campaign to an audience Of stock-yards
employees, and proceeded in rich Irish
accent to berate trusts and combina-
lions In trade.
You must bate the trusts or they
will ate you up declared the then can
didate for congress-, who is really a
competent man, possessing plenty of
intellect to cope with his future associ-
ates in the House Here yez hev the
stbreet cars in st. Loois. 1t used to be
that YOU could ride to the Four Courts
for five cints, and thin you pade hve
cints more to ride to the stock-yards
That was tin cints going and TIN cints
coming-twenty cints day. NOW,
nbat have they done? You pay five
cints TO ride to the -Four Courts, where
they give yez a red pace of paper that
takes veg to the stockyards for moth
ing. Five cints going and five cints
coming-ten cints day.
cit used to be that you could walk
and save twenty cints a day. continued
the ST. Louis statesman, preparing to
eiineh his argument, and speaking with
great emphasis but now you kin walk
and save only ten cints day. -

| asked him for further explanation.
We'll, it is this way he said. we
have many Japanese scholars who
make business Of teaching English
hundreds of them, all over the nation
but the trouble is that they have
learned the language out of books
themselves, and do not know how to
speak it correctly So, in Japan you
will find any number of people who can
read and write English with great
readiness, but comparatively few who
can converse easily in it, / spent four
years studying the language from
books, and then had to spend a great
deal of additional time in learning the
pronunciation L asked him whether
Japanese was harder to acquire than
English, and he smiled. L never expe-
rlenced any trouble myself in learning
Japanese he replied, with twinkle in
his eye, but, seriously, / would say
yes, it is a good deal harder. | never
met European who could speak it
with any tiuency.' In answer to other
questions he said that English was I'M
doubtedly the best language of the
TWO for the expression of ideas, and the
reason he gave struck me as being very
practical In Japanese he said, eve
ry written character stands for some
certain thing, and must be memurized
independently. Such a language is ne
eessarily stiff and unwieldy. Our great
poets do some wonderful things with it,
but there Is no denying the fact that it
IS greatly lacking in what might be
called fleXibility 1t is NV mother
tongue, yet I find it easier to express
many of my thoughts in English -
