"HE changes which the White House
will undergo if the two amend
ments which Senator Allison Of
fered TO the sundry civil appro-
priation bill last Monday are finally en-
acted will make of the historic home OF
the Presidents a building very different
from that now so well known to America
and Americans.
, One viewing the building today. from the
front or the back, sees the structure just
as II originally was. with conservatory,
which is nothing more nor less than a
great glass wing, tackled on to the west
erp end of 1t.
This view will be modified greatly by the
amendments in question IL they become
,sw inasmuch as they propose to sweep
away the glass wing and erect upon the
Mat at the farther end of it simple two
story white structure.
The conservatory has not been since the
HAYES administration the feature which it
ts popdlarly thought to be. Those mis-
1resse5 which the mansion has had since
that time have either been too busy with
sHairs social or domestic or not sufficient

caslons Of state, ard which are notable

do not come from there at all, but from
tho Government propagating gardens.
Wherefore the sweeping away OF this con-
sefvatory will be n matter OF small re-
gret to those who ar. most interested in
the proposed changes.

allowed to them.
The cost OF the building itself would be
not to exceed $4,000. and it could be

Mr.. Charles F. McKim. II the Park
Commission, whom the President has in
structed to make the detailed plans for
remodeling the White House visits the
building daily anu is rapidly shaping his
IDEAS on the subject.
One objection he finds to the general
plans as outlined IL that the alterations
to be effected according to them will pro-
vide no more room for formal social func-
tions.
One thing more than any other that inn
pressed the members OF Congress with
the need for a larger Executive Mansion
was the woeful inadequacy of he East
Room and three parlors for social func-
tions last season.

After the close CT his army service in
the Twelfth Vermont we find the soldier
artist in the quiet town Of Rutland, Vt,
where he worked in the studio of coun-
try photographer, dlling such commissions
as the photographer could secure from his
patrons for portraits in oil. Here at his
leisure time he could study photography,
which was then undergoing the different
ferns Of transformation from the dsguer-
rotype and aInbrotype to the photograph.
and then the carte de visite size was the
proper and popular thing.
Of for the West.
The quiet of Vermont and the lack Ct
excitement in the painting of portraits
seems to have brought about feeling of
unrest in the soldier-painter. and the days
spent in the army had fully prepared him
for the hardships of pioneers life. Leav-
ing Vermont. he iourneyed to California,
and in 1861. after an overland trip from
California, we next find him in Omaha
Neb. where. with his brother Edward.
who had been his companion in the army.
he was engaged as a photographer and
portrait painter. Omaha was then new
enough to give free room and plenty CT
breathing space, and here fer about two
years the brothers worked in their studio
About 1863 an opportunity was offered
TO jackson to join the Hayden survey a
field expedition which was the foundation
of the present Geological Survey. The
offer was accepted and for some years
Jackson was the official photographer OF

closed the connection of Mr. Hayden with
the survey. the costs of which were met
by appropriations from Congress.
This period Of service with Hayden
would have been to many a life of dreari-
ness and solitude. for the country covered
by his work was one vast wilderness, and
nothing but his deep love for nature could
have held him at his post SO long 1t IS
true that the great West was at this time
unexplored; it is true that such artists
as Thomas Moran, Clifford, and others
were his companions. and had Jackson
been given free rein il is without doubt
that he would have reveled in this oppor-
tunity of picture making; but who but
the geologist cared for the records of the
ages as revealed in the pages of the un-
sympathetic rocks; who but topographers

today have invented and designed for tho
purpose OF eliminating every possible

toll, groan, and perspire over the weight
Of a SKI camera with its accompanying
paraphernalia and excuse our lack OF
efforts photographically upon the ground
of the exertion necessary. And in face
| of all this we are confronted with the
record of a man who visited the Yellow

there was no stock tcuse just around the

In Special Cars.
After the dissolution of the Hayden
survey. Jackson settled in Denver. and
opened a place OF business as a landscape
photographer His work in the survey
had given him rare reputation. and his
ability to do any kind Of landscape work
requiring artistic feeling, coupled with
perfect knowledge of the technique of pho
Biography, was nnquestioned. The railroads
which were connecting the East with. the
Pacific Slope. were now in need of pho
tographer who could portray to prospec-
tive purchasers of homes and tourists the
allurements of their respective routes. and
we now find our soldier artist using special
cars for his Photographic trips. The day
of the pack mule and the prairie schoon-
er had passed: improvements had been
made in Photographic methods. and Jack
son was still in the arena Of photography.
Work in Landscape Photography.
In Denver he sustained a reputation as
a landscape photographer which was more
national than local. His reputation as
landscape photographer was fully equal to
that of Sarony. of New York, or Notman,
OF Montreal. as portrait photographers,
and scme idea OF the estimate Of his abili
ty may be formed from the fact that while |
at Denver he received commission to go |
to Jacksonville, Fla, to photograph the |
Ponce de Leon Hotel and surroundings, |

difference between the two points, and re- |

ment Of what alterations it is proposed
/ to make, which gives very fair concep-
/ tiOn of the present status of the idea.
/ This statement is as follows:
| After as careful an examination of The
White House as could be given while the
! house is being occupied. it appears that
/ II is necessary, first to support the floors
of the second story by placing a steel truss
or trusses in the attic and hanging the
no1rs thercfrcm. The attic itself should
be provided with stairway. access at
present being by elevator cnly- The
rooms on the secCnd loOr should be con-
vcrted from offices into chambers
"A new elevator shcald be provided for
The house. and throughout the first floor
the cid beams should lie relieved OF the
urdue strain now placed upon them. a
strain which makes certain Of the rooms
dangerous to the large number of people
that frequently corgregate in them.
''in portions OF the house the original
trimmings. raantel5, and doors remain.
These are OF such a character as to iGdi-
cate pretty clearly the line On which the
restoration in tho house shall be con-
Quoted. the idea being to reinstate the
house as it was originally built. and to
rid 1t of those eXcrCscences which follow
the temporary fashion in the days when
taste was not so we'll developed as it was
at the time when the house was built and
as it is to-day. There should be no changes
from the original structure OF the house
nor any interference with the architec-
. tural features of the exterior; but the
building should be restored in such a
digniiied and permanent manner as to be
lasting.
"It is impossible In so short time to
state in full all the items that are neces-
sary to be done in rehtting the building.
but rough estimate of Sl65, ,O00 is made.
subject to such revision. either by way of
decrease or increase. as may be found
necessary on detailed examination of
the house.
In this connection it may be well to
state that 1t is not contemplated to dis
continue the public access to the East
Room under the limitations which II is
now visited. nor is it proposed to make
any such structural changes in the White
House as will eliminate any OF its his
torical features.

Mr.. jackson was born at Petersburg, Va

Eis Experience as a Soldier.
At the age of nineteen. Mr.. jackson.
with a younger brother, Edward c. Jack
son. enlisted from the town Of Rutland.
VT. in Company X. Twelfth Vermont. Dur
lug the winter of 1Ss2-69, the Twelfth Yer
mont was stationed in Virginia in camp at
vienna. Fairfax, Centerville. and Wolf Run
shoals. The winter was notably severe,
and for Virginia, unusually SO. While the
other soldiers were doing fatigue duty
Young jackson was detailed to make
sketches of the surrounding country,
task far more congenial TO this young ar
tist than the humdrum life of camp, for
the enemies were unseen during the long
winter months and the Twelfth received
ifs first baptism of fire at Gettysburg.
These wartime sketches by Jackson have
never been published, although they are
teeming with an individual merit. and
strong in poi.: = human interest, but
jackson has never been a publisher, he
has never been a money-saver; his ability

the greatest photographer of this country
a man who could attempt and accomplish
great things. clever craftsman. and so
adept In making sketches of the human
painting he would undoubtedly have been
highly successful.
At the Chicago Worlds Fair.
In the preparation of the exhibit for
the Transportation Building for the Co.
lumbign Exposition at Chicago, in 1898.
much of the material of 4 Photographic
nature was founded upon Jackson's mega
tiyes, for at this time the routes Of the
different lines of travel were as familiar
to him as the trails and mountain passes
Of the survey days, and this knowledge
was brought into use in the equipment
OF the Transportation Building with its
educational material.
In the Orient.
In the autumn of 1891, in company with
Major ]. G. Pangborn. Mr.. Jackson sailed
for Europe to finish Photographic trip
which was intended to circle the globe,
and estimated to cost s25,OCO. Upon this
trip much time was spent in China, ST.
IBERIA. and Japan, and at times the party
was so completely cut off from communi-
cation with civilization that months some
times elapsed in which the family of
Mr. Jackson received no tidings from him.
The trip was originally intended to sup
plement the material in the Field Me
mortal Museum of Chicago. a nucleus OF
which was formed from the exhibit of
the Transportation exhibit OF the CO.
lumbian Exposition of 1898.
Many of the photographs made on this
trip have been reproduced in "Harper's
Weekly" The trip occupied about two
years, and the Photographic work is the
most notable series of photographs, SO far

During this trip Jackson formed the
acquaintance with a German firm occu-
