The craze for pictures goes on
apace with the yellow journals, and
even courts of justice, it seems, some
times be martyrs to 1t. The other
day, in Brooklyn magistrates
court, Sensational" case was on,
and the place was crowded. Suddenly,
in the rear of the hall there was a
fash, and explosion, and then an up
roar all around. The magistrate
jumped a full foot from his chair.

shock that left him speeches..
Then dense cloud of sitting smoke
filled the hall. turning all the laugh

Frederic Harrison's admiration for
the capitol as an architectural work
and the cehtral object of the Wash
ington landscape is shared by so many
that one can always send thrill of
panied surprise through part of ev-
cry group of visitors by a reminder
that only it's two wings are built Of
marble. and that for the wilderness of
its main body we must thank copious
and oft-renewed applications of white
paint. But quite as much astonish-
ment is likely TO he felt by most per-
sons at the discovery that the grea.
dome. which has been the delight Of
all heholders. is not precisely in the
axis of the central portico, but about
six feet out of place. Yet such is the
case. 1t has been necessary to re-
sort to some trickery to deceive the
eve in taking in the whole effect OF
the ediiice. but the cheat has been
accomplished so cleycrly that it may
he forgiven. Another fact little
known to the public is that the ex.
quisite proportions of the dome are
the result of accident, not design. The
present lines do not follow the archi-
tectural drawings, because when the
base of the dome proper was meas
ured preparatory 10 lowering IL into
the collar, which was already in place
for il, il was found 10 he too large.
The collar could not be changed to fit,
so the original base was cut off at the
point where the diminishing diameter
would slip into the collar. The re.
suit was most gratifying. II, ms many
experts asserts, the present dome is
perfect, il follows that the dome as
first designed would have been mper-
feet, and if il had been used, one Of
the most satisfactory public edifices
in the world would nave lacked q
large part of its present charm
