Painting Animals, Eyes.

One OF the most difficult things which
the artists and taxidermists Of the gov
eminent studio have to co is the paint
ing and preparation of glass eyes for
the mammals, birds and reptiles
mounted at that institution for exhibit
ton in the National museum.
These "eyes" are made of glass, hol-
low within and from the rear, so that
the inner surface may be painted any
color desired. AS no two animals eyes
are alike and as the colors are often
complicated and unusual, II requires a
great deal of SKILL study and practice
before one is competent TO undertake
the work

Feline amenities show themselves
most forcibly at committee meetings.
There was one OF these latter gathered
together to discuss a charity bazaar.
The chairman smiled sweetly upon the
artists wife and said:
You'll get your husband to let us
have some little thing of his for the art
table, will you not, Mrs. Mahlsticiz ?"
"Well, you know husbands are not
always easily managed, my dear"
"Ah, but take him after one OF your
nice dinners and then put in a word
for our worthy cause. But remember
we are not allowed to have anything
which sells for over $25."

to dash OFF something for you."-New

THE STATUE OF LEE.

The Chicago Tribune Is one of
the strongest and most influential
of the Republican papers in the
West. What it says carries great
weight with many people and we
are glad 10 see that it takes Il firm
stand against the proposition that
the Grand Army of the Republic
shall pronounce against the placing
of Lees statue i'm the Capitol at
Washington.
The Tribune insists that the
Grand Army shall not lend its
sanction to such a scheme. and
argues that if il does it will be lend
ing its weight To the cause against
which it fought for four years
the cause ofdiSunion." Such action,
it says. would do much to "relight
the fires of SectionaliSm fires
which until within the last year or
two seemed about to go out for
ever"
Our contemporary believes that
if Congress forbids Virginia to
place Lees statue in the Capitol,
Virginia will leave the pedestal
vacant. And it asks would not other
Southern States also nominate
famous Confederates, and on being
refused, leave their pedestaIs
vacant. And would not those
empty places do more than statues
of Confederates could ever do to
! preserve the fame of the heroes of
the Lost Cause, Would not a
statuary hall but half filled with
statues be a perpetual token that
the North and the South will not
unite in heart so long a. the North
treats the South as an enemy con
quered. instead of a friend recon-
ciled Z"
So the Tribune wishes Virginia
to choose freely. and the dead whom
she desires to commemorate. IF, ;"
il adds, she honors Lee above all.
but Washington, let her place his
statue in the Capitol. He was a
great and good man, although he
stood by his State instead of the
Union"
We do not know whether the
advice of the Tribune will prevail
or not with the Grand Army of the
Republic when it meets in annual
encampment at San Francisco, but
the spirit exhibited in the Tribune's
editorial shows that there will be
serious opposition to the Grand
Army's meddling in the matter.
1t is Virginia's right to put a
statue of Lee in the Capitol. 1t
was for her to say whether she
would exercise that right or not.
She has said, in effect, that she will
do so, and that the two statues she
will furnish will be those of Wash
ington and Lee, and the order for
the construction of them has been
given. Now for the Grand Army
of the Republic to throw its infiu-
ence in favor of a repeal of the
existing law or to file protest
against its execution would be mis-
chievous in the extreme, and, as
the Tribune well says, would be
destructive to good feeling between
the two sections of our country.
Virginia no doubt will choose a
suitable moment to present these
statues to the nation, but no mat
ter what happens she will not beg
to do what the whole country ought
to be glad to see her do.-Times-
Dispatch.
