MEMORIAL TO MRS. BROWNING.
Industrial School Built by Her Son at
 Asolo In Italy.

r A practical memorial to great woman is to be found at the little Italian town of Asolo. It is a school for the making of lace, and was built by Barrett Browning In memory of his mother, Elizabeth Bar rett Browning.
 As seen from the tiny town square, writes correspondent of the Craftsman, the most striking feature Is it's splendid windows. These are grouped along the whole front of the house on the upper main floor and have boxes of flowers ranged along the base of them, accentng their pleasantness. Entering, one finds spacious rooms, numbers of small chairs, and for the rest simplicity.
 Outdoors again we discover just below the window line and slightly above the doorway itself the unpretentious mural tablet to Elizabeth Barrett Browning At the corner to the right stands little fountain. and here at almost any time of day some picturesque peasant may be seen filling her pail or halting for a chat.
 To our New World clumsiness the delft ness of the tiny fingers of the little lace makers was of the nature of magic. When told that many of the patterns had re- gious names, here an Ave and there a Paternoster, we were almost persuaded 10 believe in miracles, so marvelously intri- cate and delicate were the designs.

 J. R. Copeland made an address in which he said he would support the ac- tion of the committee, but charged it with unfair methods and of having made mis- takes. He said that while the work of eliminating illegal votes was well and good, the committee had done but half its duty. He declared that had it not been

 The pay is small, but with a strict re- gard to economy it covers personal ex- penses. It is a servle position, morally considered. Still, after the glamor and gloss of court life has worn off the groan of slavery Is succeeded by hugging of the chains.
 There is a morbid taste in the whole matter-a glamor which enthralls at first, satiates later, but which in time comes to be the most binding tie which can be forged.
