Sculpture in Italy in the Fifteenth

Great Artists.

Art has had its devoted adherents. and
the Stars School Art Competition has had
its praises from all classes of teachers and
pupils, from the superintendent of schools
DOWN to the babies of the lowest grades.
but its value was never put more emphati-
cally and disinterestedly than 1t was yester-
day. A teacher among the visitors at The
Star office yesterday, who saw the great
heaps of votes piling up to the credit of
some of the energetic and large schools of
twelve rooms and over, said, with every
appearance of sincerity:
Il have come in from the country today
my school is one of the outlying buildings
of the District, to bring these few votes. I
want my pupils to find themselves in the
race. We have no chance Of winning, but
that is not the question. The pupils are
making the effort. Every day my little
building, four rooms only, is the scene of
excited interest The pupils come from far
and near. They are farmers children In the
main. and papers are not many; but every
coupon seems to be picture to them, and
there is as much joy over twenty as other
schools would have over two hundred.
But more than that, the general interest
in the condition of the school building
which the contest has awakened, has solved
any little problems of discipline we may
have had. No child who has had his eyes
opened to the necessity of having the school
room beautiful can enjoy whiting the
desks and spilling ink on the floor and chip
ping the window slls. My boys and girls
are taking a pride in the building which
nothing before has stimulated. They bring
flowers and leaves, and / feel sure when
the collections are all given out and we
have not gotten anything it will still be
impossible to go back to the old indiffer-
ence.
Moreover, we are learning how many
schools there are. We feel ourselves as
never before part of a great system That
is why l want these votes turned in 1t is
good for the children to have share in
this work"

unless it was withdrawn within fifteen days
he would cause the arrest of Mr. Perce for
libel The time limit fixed by Mr.. Cullen

Valuable Adjunct to Ancient

Success Crowned Efforts to Effect Or

Rapid Growth.

The presentation of a check for $4,000
to Trinity College by the Ladies Auxiliary
of the Ancient Order of Hibernians, which
occurred at the college in this city last
Wednesday, has made this organization
especial object OF interest. The Ladies'
Auxiliary to the Ancient Order of Hiber-
mans is composed of women who are Irish
either by birth or descent, and who are
practical members OF the Catholic Church.
1t organized in the early eighties, and
it is significant that at the end of the first
decade of Its existence the ladies, then
sembled in national convention in the city
Of Denver considered the best method of
marking in a practical way the advance
ment made by them and the success which
attended their efforts.
They finally decided to endow a scholar
of women, to be used by one of their own
members, and it was agreed that the col
lege should be Trinity College of Washing
ton, and the amount of the endowment
$4,000. This was in July. 1902, and on last
Wednesday a check for that amount was
presented to the college by the national
president of the auxiliary, Mrs. Mary A.
Quinn. to Cardinal Gibbons, as trustees for
the institution. The presentation of this
check attended witt: simple exercises,
but before a distinguished audience com
posed of some of the highest dignitaries of
both the Ancient Order of Hibernians and
the Ladies' Auxiliary, the details of which
ceremonies have been heretofore published
in the columns of The Star.
