The warm weather this morning was well
coined by the players of the Washington
club, and they were out early on the field
at American Park. Two hours of hard
practice were had, and the same program
holds good for this afternoon.
The in and out field are now complete and
the couple of hundred spectators this morn

of how the national game should be played.

GOOD RACING AT BENNINa.
Big Crowd Witnessed Fine Sport at the
Track Saturday.


Saturdays crowd at the Benning races
was one Of the largest Of this springs
meeting its proportions being large enough
to remind one Of holiday. In the bet
ting ring there was a jam. a good-sized
crowd in the grand stand and the club
house was thronged with Washington's So
ciety people.
The racing was unusually good, q ma
jority of the finishes being close enough
to call forth exciting EXPLANATIONS, and
while the betting talent got something the
worse of the days battle with the book
makers. the advantage of the latter must
have been small on account of the one-two-
three betters.
The closing race of the day was the best
although the two steeplechases furnished
interesting spectacles. Intrusive, carrying
126 pounds, captured the last event on the
card and ran one of the finest races ever
seen on the Benning track. Considering
the weight, 1t was the best performance
ever made on the course, as he ran seven
furlongs in 128 2-5, within one-fifth of a
second of the track record. made by Anna
ION last fall, her weight being 115 pounds
Himself, the Benning handicap winner, was
at all times the favorite in the event. At

Il weighed 212 pounds when I started
work two weeks ago, and am now down to
1885, and by the time the season starts, I'll
have ten more pounds off. New Orleans
is the ideal spot for spring training. and
If everything goes all right I'll have Man

sculptor and painter, William Freder-
ick Macmonnies, after Il several
7ears residence in France.
Mr.. Macmonnies, tired of what he
calls the over-sensitive life of Paris,
will rest for year, and then open a
studio. During his relaxation he will
make frequent hunting trips and will
bake advantage of the opportunity to
make q close study of nature.
The significance OF the great sculp-
tors decision to make this country his
future home may be appreciated when
1t is stated that it is his earnest de-
sire to see established in America a
National School of Art which shall be
the Mecca Of the art student world.
Akron daily Democrat. [volume] (Akron, Ohio) 1892-1902, 1902-01-27

Mr.. Macmonnies said:
II would like to see a national school
established in America on the lines of
the EcOle des Beaux Arts of Paris.
The instruction in this institution is
both theorellcal and practical and the
school is open to all Frenchmen from
fifteen to thirty years of age and even
in some cases to foreigners. The
school is intended for painters, sculp-
tors and architects and contains val
liable collections.
THE people abroad are not half as
enthusiastic as the Americans are. II
you were to compare them you would
find that in the fine arts the really
enthusiastic Americans would far out.
balance the mass Of foreigners.
BETTER TO STUDY HERE.
'When the opportunities here are
improved and the facilities made as
fine as they are in France, it will be
more profitable for Americans to STUDY
here and only spend year or SO
abroad,
Akron daily Democrat. [volume] (Akron, Ohio) 1892-1902, 1902-01-27

'The possibilities in this country are
magnificent. l hope to live to see the
day when Americans and foreigners
will find it to their advantage to study
in an American National School OF
Art. The time is sure to come. or
course l would be willing to do all in
my power to- aid in the work. I be-
lieve that when an artist or sculptor
has received the benefits of the train
ing of years in the best school of its
kind he should return to his own coun-
try and apply what he has learned to
his country's needs.
WE SHALL LEAD IN ART.
"The French nation sends over stu
dents to study electrical engineering
in America and will not the time come
when the same nation will send over
its students to study the fine arts here

IT'S OWN HOME.
u. c. A. Almost Ready
to Build.
Splendid Help From Col. Geo. T.
Perkins and 0. G. Barber.

The Union Charity Association will
build itself home at III South High
ST., on the lot owned by the Associa-
ton. 1t will probably cost $4,000, as
Col. George r. Perkins has agreed to
duplicate any amount up to $500, land
the association feels confident of se-
curing subscriptions amounting to ST..
500. Mr.. O. G. Barber las subscribed
$500, and others have promised liberal
contributions.
1t is designed to begin work on the
building as soon as the $4,000 is Sc
cured. The building will probably be
40 100, of brick, fire-proof and SUD-
stantial. There will be reading rooms,
work rooms, gymnasium, containing
bowling alleys, baths and other
equipment necessary to make the place
attractive.
AS it is now, the Association cannot
take boys into the industrial school,
but when the new home is completed
arrangements will be made by which
work among the boys, too young for
the Y. NJ. G. A., will be special fea-
ture. In many other ways the work Of
members feel that there is a wide field
for the U. G. A.. and will be well Or
ganized and equipped for taking charge
of it. Architect f. o. Weary is pre-
pairing plans for the building.

Foreign Ministers Received
BY the Chinese Emperor
Empress DowagerHeard
But Was Not
Seen.

Penkin. Jan. 24.-The ministers Of
the foreign powers have attained the
goal which has been their aim since
the intercourse between China and
the powers began, They have been
received as representatives of sover-
eigns equal in rank to the Chinese
Emperor.
The audiences yesterday between the
Emperor and the ministers were held
in the innermost large hall of the
Forbidden City. The Emperor sat
upon dais behind a table. There
We're four Princes at the back of his
chair and a dozen officials at each
side. The Dowager Empress was con-
cealed by screen, according to the
stories of the attendants, and remained
invisible.
1 The audience chamber was furnished
ornately, in contrast with the dlngy
rooms which served for these audi.
ences under the old regime.
The secretaries translated the ad-
dresses of the ministers, copies of
which were handed to the Emperor.
The replies were delivered by Prince
Ching. The Emperor was silent
throughout the audiences and remain
ed stolid and impassive.
Formerly the Emperor replied to
the ministers in Manchu, and the
Prince interpreted what he said, Yes
terday he appeared as an automaton,
and the secretaries of the foreign min
listers who were present report that
he looked weaker, less intellectual,
and more childish than prior to the
siege Of the legations.
Sir Ernest Satow, the British repre-
sentative, made the following address:
"My august sovereign has charged me
to express to your Majesty his sincere
desire to see the independence and
the integrity of the Chinese Empire
maintained intact, and that the pros
perity and happiness of the Chinese
people may be hastened by the remov-
al of obstacles to the free exchange
of commodities, by the extension of
manufactures, and by the utilization
of the resources of the soil.
''The wonderful improvements In the
means Of communication between
different parts of the world, through
the developments of steam navigation,
railways, and telegraphs, have brought
III countries into much closer relations

than was possible In former times.
Thus the nations of the world are
enabled to profit by the lesson to be
learned from each other In the art of
government, in methods of education,
in the administration of justice, and
the application of the public wealth
to the advantage of the whole people.
If, under the enlightened rule of your
Majesty, the barriers which, in the
past, hindered the free and mutually
advantageous intercourse of China
with the rest of the world be COM
pletely removed, and her domestic
institutions wisely regulated, 1t is cer-
tain that China, advancing along the
