The death mask of President Mckinley
s not as yet the property of the nation.
1t Is technically entered upon the books
of the National Museum as a loan. 1t is
still the property of the sculptor. But at
an early date Congress is expected to
pass bill appropriating for 1t as well
as for the expenses incidental to the Pres
idents Illness and burial. What price has
been asked by Mr.. Pausch is as yet I'M
known.
Two masks of the face of President
Lincoln are installed in the National Mu-
scum. Both of these, however, were
made before the nations first martyr was
assassinated.
The first Lincoln mask was made at

Brother Looked the Part.

Senator Bard of California, is rather
careless about his dress, says the Los
Angeles Times, and is rarely seen in
the frock coat and shining hat general
ly supposed by the provincial to consti
tute the garb of a Senator. His brother,
who somewhat resembles him, Is, on the
contrary, very particular about his APP
parel. and invariably wears clothes of
the latest cut and ties of the newest
fashion. The Bard brothers were travel
ing together through the state last sum-
mer when they met many of the SEN
ator's constituents. At a little station
that lay on their route a rough old miner
boarded the train and holding his hand
out to Mr.. Bard, said:
How dye do. Senator; glad to see yer
in these dggin's."

- HE Mckinley death mask. which

81 UNI for safe keeping Is quite
the most artistic cast of the kind ever
moulded upon the features of a public
man. Those who have viewed 1t have
remarked upon the striking resemblance
between its features and those ehiseed
upon the face of the statue of Napoleon,
adjoining the Corcoran Art Gallery.

Der II, e. L. A. Pausch, a New York
sculptor. telegraphed Secretary Cortel-
you for permission to pefpetuate the face
of the nations beloved martyr in plaster
Mr.. Pausch being the first sculptor to
make the proposition. his request was i'm
mediately granted over the wire. Packing
his appliances he took the next train for
Buffalo, arriving there at p. m. the day
of the Presidents death. He made the
mask at the Milburn residence at o'clock
next morning, the President having been
dead Twenty-Five hours. The negative
cast was removed the same morning: the
positive was Immediately nodded from it,
and the finished product was locked care
fully away in safe deposit vault in Buff

On Tuesday Mr.. Pausch personally deiv-
cred 1t to Secretary Cortelyou, at the
White House. Bearing note dictated
by Mr.. Cortelyou the sculptor delivered
his work at the office of Secretary Lang

broidery of which are most skillfully re-
produced. The left ear is entirely ex-
posed. but only the lobe of the right ear
is visible.
number of the dead Presidents own
hairs adhere to the right temple of the
cast. One of his eyelashes rests upon
the right cheek.
The features are expressively calm and
peaceful. The prominent brow Is smooth
and furrowless. Two irregular vertical
lines between the bushy brows are the
only relics of care imprinted above the
features proper. The closed eyelids with
their long lashes. bear the soft imprint
of spirituality. The cheeks, more sunken
than in life. but less so than during the
lying in state in the rotunda of the cap
itol, bear the saddest reminder of the
nations tragedy and the hellish accom-
plishment of anarchy. The traces of
peaceful benevolent smile remain about
the lips and above the prominent, dim
pied chin!
The sharp, Napoleonic profile is the
most striking view which can be OBJ
tanned. AS the sun changes the shadows
playing over the magnificent features
bring out the beauty of expression when
the view is full face or three-quarters.

SOME SCENES AT WELLESLEY COLLEGE

Women critics who complain that a
college education wholly units a girl
for success in the more distinctly do
nestle callings, and men cynics who
assert that women never have any
business ability, anyhow, will be quite
disconnected by the success of the We'll
lesley tea room and the news that this
venture is now to be incorporated as
a stock company to be wholly man
aged and controlled by the girls of the
college with which it is connected,
says Boston Globe.
Until four years ago there was no
place in Wellesley where the faculty
and undergraduates of Wellesley could
meet for relaxation and social inter
course. To Miss Mary Chase, SO, of
Philadelphia, and Miss Clara Shaw of
Kentucky the brilliant idea of starting
a tea room as a central rendezvous for
Wellesley girls then suggested itself
with the result that the present plant
was placed in operation. Miss Shaw,
as it happened, soon left the college
for Chicago university, and upon the
shoulders Of Miss Chase fell the bur
den of the work.

ing to the house, he set steadily to
work at his desk for some hours and,
although since his last illness he
dimes alone, he joins the family at the
midday repast. His manuscripts are
badly written and marked all over by
additions and erasures, so that each
sheet has to be copied. He has many
willing secretaries, including Nicholas

dertake this work in the afternoon and
carefully transcribe the writing of

Lord Salisbury is said by those who
know him intimately to be at once a
younger and an older man since he left
the foreign Office. He is younger in
that release from the absorbing cares
and daily labors of that post has re-

Emperor as Cup CbaIIeneer

1t is reported in London that EN-
peror William of Germany may take
the place of Sir Thomas Upton as the
next challenger for the America cup.
If Sir Thomas is not yet discouraged
the first place should, of course, be
held open for him, but there is no APP
parent reason why a German yacht
should not also be allowed to enter and
the contest become triangular. The
America cup is an international
trophy, and the fastest boats of all ma
tons should be allowed to compete for
the honor of its custody. If Kaiser
Wilhelm has his eyes on the cup it
behooves the Yankee yachtsman to be
up and stirring. The Germans do
things thoroughly, and it is certain
that Wilhelm II. would not send
yacht across the Atlantic unless salts
fed it had good chance of winning
the blue ribbon of the SEAS" 1t is
sure that the presence of an imperial
yacht flying the German flag would
add much to the public interest in the
races, and it is not entirely beyond the
bounds of possibility that the Kaiser
himself might cross the water to see
the yachts in action. The Car of Rus
STA might also be invited to send the
fastest boat his shipbuilders can turn
out, and in the course of time the con-
test for the America cup might be
fought out between representatives of
the greatest nations of earth. Ger
tainly the royal rivals and yachtsmen
of Europe could find no waters in
which they would be so sure to get fair
play and good beating as in those
