To the Editor of The Washington Times.
On reading the address of the presi-
dent of the Daughters of American
Revolution before the society on the
OF Monday, wherein she said the society
had erected tablets and monuments all
over the land in memory OF soldiers Of
the Revolution, my mind reverted to one
whose grave is almost forgotten, but
whose name CO n never be forgotten as
long as the story OF that struggle is
read. One with his famous rifemen who

trymen at Boston. when the tocsin Of

fought from the walls of Quebec to the
far south, the man who defeated and
put to Hight Tarleton.
Not long since / stood over his grave
In the beautiful cemetery OF Mt. Hebron,
inscription on the broken tombstone that
lay on it, and the thought came to my
mind that 1t seemed republics We're un-
grateful. l know some time ago an
effort was made to have Congress erect
q monument there to the memory of
General Morgan, but nothing has been
done about 1t for some time No doubt
II the Daughters and Sons OF the Revo-
luton take up the matter it will be
built 1t took Congress more than one
hundred years to pass the appropria-
ton for a monument TO General Mercer,
which a congress of the Revolution
enacted should be reared to his men,
ory, but had there been two such patrf-
otic societies as above referred to in
a moment that monument would have
been built soon after the resolution was
passed? J. ]. G.

more could the fair lady ask? What
better could any family wish?
The most gilded youth Of this
country and Europe claim no more
for themselves than knowledge of
horsefesh, an air Of breeding and
manners. Manners they have un-
doubtedly, but mostly bad ones; their
breeding they are too modest to dis
play over often, and their knowledge
of horsehesh is largely confined to
past performances Mr.. Hever seems
to be the real thing, however, and
his wife has shown the normal Car
negie horse sense in selecting him.
Mr.. Carnegie says: "Mr. Hever was
a riding teacher in the family. The
family has no objection to the match.
Mr.. Hever Is an honest, upright
young man. | would rather Nancy
had married a poor, honest man than
a worthless duke. We want no rich
men in the family"
Good for ye, Andra! Luck to yez,
James! 1t is of such material we
make Americans and the country will
be safe while ye last. May the tribe
increase.

PHOENIX CLUB
REPEATS PROGRAM

number of Washingtonians went to
Baltimore last night to attend Il per-
formance by the Phoenix Club in the
Academy of Music. The entertainment
was a repetition of the clubs first per-
formance given a week ago and the sue
cess which attended it then led to it's
second presentation.
Much amusement was caused by the
clever work of Morton H Goldenberg,
who, attired as Il colored belle, was a
conspicuous figure in the program. His
songs were well received and he was
compelled to respond to several en-
cores
Menden Hecht offered a bit of comedy
and introduced 81 coruet solo which
proved highly entertaining
The program closed with a sketch en-
titled His Last Night in Bohemia .
with words and music by A e Morrow.
Julius Goldenberg carried off the chief
honors OF the little shit by his singing

Mr.. Carnegie is winning his way to
the gratitude, the admiration, and the
affection Of the American public.
True, his Libraries have been accepted
with a grudging grace, for the people
had lurking suspicion that their
own was being returned with the
bookplate and private stamp of the
borrower. True, his fatherly advice
and economic philosophy have been
received with quiet Difference that
does us great credit. True, all of us
view with complacency his determi-
nation to avoid departing to that
country from whose bourne no travel

pieted the slow distribution of the
wealth confded to his care by a wise
providence and an induigent public
sentiment. But none Of these things

Soaring Washington.

The man who is sincerely interest
ed in making Washington beautiful
discovered long ago that the cause
rests as much with the citizens as
with the government of the Capital
All the parks, memorial bridges, tri-
umphal arches, boulevards, union ter
minals, driveways, and arcades the
National Government might allot to
the District could not hide or over
come the effect of great slices of
baked mud stood up on edge with
bare walls of cheap brick.
Buildings of this class already ex-.
ist in Washington in number sufi-
cienta Ito scar the city for the next
half century. There is a certain
apartment house-one of the first
built in Washington-which sticks
three ugly sides into the air high
enough to blot the landscape as far
as one can see the city from the hills
to the north. All the new districts
alternate sordid back yards with
block-like flats" So that, if this
movement continues, the only hope
men can have that Washington, may
become really beautiful rests in the
dim prospect that some day the
streets may be built up as solidly as
the streets of New York.
And that is not ALL The borders of
plain, inartistic, deadly dull houses
in rows do not fill up any single
square, and the space they leave is
invariably given over to one of two
uses. Either they shut out from
view similar collection of lozenge-
like back yards, for the most part
neglected and filled with rubbish. or
they shelter the eyes of the passer-
by on the main thoroughfares from
long rows of alley shacks as ugly as
the larger buildings on the streets
and not half so sanitary.
The only remedy for all this rests
in the hope that some day our people
may temper their desire to make
money with the appreciation of out
of-doors beauty That will come with
the building of more homes and few
er investments" 1t will be has
tened. also. by the growth among the
American people Of genuine love for
beauty, because with the development
Of that spirit will come a new ele-
ment in the tenants choice of his
quarters. Other things being equal
even today it is the building with
architectural merit which is most
easily rented
Encouragement is offered by the
two artistic. handsome, impressive
and wholly admirable structures
erected by private enterprise to face
the north side cf the Treasury. Mean
while it will be well for the people
of Washington to realize that every
structure of the other sort is like
blotch of smut on fine surface
easy to get there, but woefully hare
to remove and nightly discreditable
while it stays.
