DECORATION AND DRAPERY.
Illustrated Lectures on the Subject at
Local Business House.

series of illustrated talks on decoration
and drapery was inagurated by w. B.
Moses & Sons on the second floor of their
building, at 18th and F streets, this morn
ing, with an address by Mr.. Clifford n.
Crossley of Philadelphia. 1t is the intention
Of the Messrs. Moses to have a number of
these lectures. which will be illustrated with
the materials at hand in the store.
In his talk this morning Mr.. Crossley men
toned the fact that the period generally re-
ferred to as colonial was not colonial in the
sense of the furniture and type of decora-
ton that prevailed. He said one might as
well call Louis XVI article colonial. be-
cause it was used in the colonial period.
The proper term, said Mr.. Crossley, is
Georgian. as it was only during the time of
the Georges that such types existed.
The lecturer showed what effects could be
obtained by various combinations. He said
the decorator found more latitude in the
matter of design during this period than at
any other time in the history of artistic
decoration. At the conclusion Of the talk
Mr.. Crossley met a number of those present
personally and explained his ideas to them
more fully.

STREET CARS FOR BR1GHTwooD.
Col. Biddle Says No Way Of Requiring
Companies to Comply With Request.

Reporting on the petition Of the Bright
wood citizens for through car arrange
ment on the Brightwood and 9th street
lines as far. north as Richmond street,
Colonel John Biddle, the Engineer Com
missioner, has stated to his associates that
there is, under the present condition OF
street railway legislation, no way in which
the Commissioners can require the rail-
road companies to run their Brightwood
cars down 9th street. or their 9th street
cars up Brightwood avenue. He suggests,
however, that General Harries, vice presi-
dent of the Washington Railway and Elec-
trio Company, be informed Of the desire
of the large number Of citizens and that
he be requested to give the matter con-
sideration. The petitioners will be inform
ed to this effect.

Inspectors Plan Approved.

The Commissioners have recently had
before them a case involving section 33 Of
the building regulations, which requires
that at least 10 per cent of lot area shall
be reserved for lighting and ventilation
when built upon. Several two-story houses
are in course of construction from 2131 to
PAL Newport place, and by the plan Of
back perches and stairways proposed by
the builders the 10 per cent space would
be encroached upon. The District build
ing inspector has suggested a scheme, how
ever, which, while changing the original
stairway plan, gives the required amount
of air space, and the Commissioners have
approved 1t.
