opinion about the advisability Of .hav-

drapery, an eyesore and object of de-
rision to all. e
Finally, in the dead Of night, to put
an end to the scandal and disputes, the
police stripped off the old and rotten
cloth, and in the morning the Eternal
City found herself enriched by the

citizens laughed and crowded to see
what had become curiosity, but the

the few such, If not the only one, is a

home of Mrs. Robert Murray, who en-

officers under General Howe while the
American troops under General Putt

monument bears an inscription on

achievement. What difference there
