NEED OF MUNICIPAL BUILDING
Practical Illustration for the Chairman
of the District Committee.

The need Of a new municipal building
was wildly brought home to Senator Nc
MILAN, chairman of the Senate committee
on the District of Columbia, few days
ago, when he told his eoachman to take
him to the Commissioners offices. They
were then near 9th and f streets, and the
spanking team behind which he rides to
Lie Capitol daily was directed eastwardiy
The coachman turned down 9TH street and
held up before the Columbia law building
but Mr.. Mcmillan directed him to drive
on and find the building further down the
street. When they reached the iBtersec-

none of them with any distinctive feature

gushing characteristic to even its rented
house to indicate that a citys officials
dwelt there. Altogether, the coachman
didn't stop at the right building, and with
out studying the situation carefully Sena-
tor Mcmillan was not at the moment sure
which was the municipal building, and,
being in hurry to reach the Capitol, de-
termined to abandon the proposed visit to
the Commissioners for the day. Senator
Mcmillan has always been an advocate of
a municipal building worthy of a great
capital for this city. and after his recent
experience he is, if possible. more fully
convinced of that need than ever.

the stomach, deranges digestion,
pollutes the blood, destroys the
nervous force and saps the
vitality of the whole system.
1t causes pains in the side, pal

smothering, dropsical swellings,
sinking spells, and frequently
ends all suffering in sudden
death. Why tempt death
when a cure is within easy reach!

IS FILLED WITH LAMENTATIONS.
When Alice was in Wonderland she came one
day upon three OF the Queens gardeners busted
around the lower foliage of a fine young tree.
On closer inspection it developed that a rose
bush had disappointed her majesty by bearing
white. and that these faithful. though mortified.
servants were administering a gentle rebuke TO
nature with a coat OF paint. over in Edgewater.
Bergen County. n. j. yesterday man Of artis-
tic temperament and alegorical fancy, one
Michael Hawkins. came home from his work in
the Ellis Oil Works. and in the seclusion of his
tomato garden Ieaped 70 a fame that should
never fade. With taste for color worthy of
the Italian decorator Michael Angelo. and with
an originality eclpsing the three gardeners.
Michael, OF Edgewater. painted two live. lusty
goats red and green. Not one red and one green
that were crude-painted them both alike. for
they were twins: painted their bodies green and
their legs red. and sent them home TO Crobach.
Paul Crobach is the blacksmith OF Edgewater.
and his goats were dear to his heart. When he
returned TO his ancestral home after a days
forging he saw two creatures in the moonlight
but he missed his goats Then a voice spoke
to him thus-it the voice OF the elder goat:
stay for a moment under thy spreading chest

known TO thee the good fortune that befen this

We ate the roof of his house. Tomorrow. per-
chance, we may eat the roof. But to-day-the
tomatoes were thriving in the sunlight. We
were thriving, too, when Hawkins came to
with pot and brush in either hand. He paint
ed my brothers body green, and he painted my
legs red: then he painted my body green and
tomatoes which nature had painted red, and the
plants which nature had painted green Then
Hawkins stood up and said TO US: Go home to
Crobach. the blacksmith. Tell him you are
green. in symbol Of the time when I shall make
his dwelling a green and desoIate open lot Tell
him your legs are red in symbol Of the day when
I shall wade through a river Of his blood. Now

Nothing was heard then IN the stiffness of the
night but the sobs of Crobach. the blacksmith.
as he affixed to his beloved goats signs say
ing: Take care. Fresh paint" Then he went
before Recorder Hinners and took out a warrant
for Hawkins's arrest. And the Recorder held
Hawkins in 500 bail on a charge Of cruelty TO
animals. not knowing of the delight and pride
of the goats. And the Society for the Preven-
ton of Painting Goats has taken up the case.
So little is art understood in Edgewater!
