How Minor ana Multifoid Things Can be
Made Obieois Of Art.
Sylvester Baxter In the Century.
Minor and multiiold things, like
street signs, can be made objects of
art, however simple their character (;
care may easily be had togive the proper
proportions, an agreeable color compati-
BILE with legibility aud good letter
inc. The case of wayside guide
boards there is yet further opportu.
nifty TO make them attractive in design.
In Boston, when street signs stand de-
tached from buildings, pleasant
decorative effect Is given by some
simple wrouqht-iron scroll-wOrk in the
angle between honrd and post
In many parts OF Boston are to be
seen bronze tablets with appropriate
inscriptions, marking some historic
building or COMMUNICATING some nOta-
ole movement Certain patriotic Or
ders, like the Sons of the Revolution,
have mBde the placing Of such tnblets
one of their duties. 10 various New
England communities luoal historic
societies mark notablea sites in SINH
lar way, perhaps at hrat with painted
legends, to be replaced, when means
permit, by inscriptions more enduring.
This service might we'll be extended.
Street names often bear intimate
relations with local history, but for
lack of record the circumstances OF
their designations are likely TO be for
cotton. Here, then, Is rich field Of
work for local societies, IN placing in
each street that bears a name Of his
torical purport an inscription giving
the facts OF the case. Llncoln street,
in Boston, for instance, might now
commonly be supposed 70 bo named
no honor Of the great President But
a suitable inscription would recite
the fact that the name was given, on
such a date in honor cf Levi Lincoln,
governor of the commonwealth, etc.
ON School street the Inscription would
be 20 the effect that the first public
Latin school in America stood there.
In such ways the streets Of a town
could bs made vsritable book for
the public, in which literally they
that run might read. These tablets
could be given attractive shape, as
simple or as ornate as desired, and rer-
baps fashioned after some standard
design, as street signs are. Or, where
a street beara the name OF a person
of note, the tablets might include a
medallion portrait in low relief The
thoroughiaFe itself would thereby
more fully serve the function Of com
memorative monument. Inscriptions
might al tirst be affixed in temporary
share, gradually to be reproduced IN
bronze, perhaps a certain number each
wear. Such a work would add greatly
10 the interest OF a place. Particularly
in the older parts Of the county, as
In New England, the historic charao-
ter of which attracts tourists from
other parts Of the country in inoreas-
ins numbers every year, il would be a
remuuerative outlay for community
to undertake the task as completely az
possible

MAP AS WEAPON AGAINST TIGER

While a we'll known local survey or,
who had been kept out late at work on
Saturday night, was driving in a
riokshaw along Tambenis road, his
riokshaw coolie suddenly dropped the
shafts and ran for his life into the
edge Of the jungle.
On peering into the darkness 1.-THE
vehicle was not carrying a light the
gentleman saw a large creature stand
ing in the middle of the road. lie got
out Of the riokshaw and went toward
the beast, thinking it some large dog
that had frightened the ooolie. When
within six or seven yards away be
rerceived that the ohstIuotor OF the
path was a large tiger.
lie had no weapon except a large dis
triot survey map rolled ur. lie saw
the futility cf attempting to disable
the tiger with the rolled up map but
a thought struck him that be might
manage TO irighten il by means of this
roll. Suddenly he unrolled IL with
quick Zip spreading It to its full area
OF four or Ave feet square. With a
single bound the tiger cleared of into
the jungle.
The next thing was to lind the coolie,
who eventually was discovered IN q
state Of collapse in the ditch. He was
quite unable to pull Eis fare back,
and il wac not until three or four
miles had been traverHed that be re-
covered sufficiently to drive the Eure-

Mr. Ravner announced his adherence
IN tbe Rates bill as il passed the House.
He pave very little time to the questions
nj rebates and unreasonable rates. saving
hat the former may be regulated under

some exceptions ia the matter of rates

tbe opnion that discrimination Is the real
issue. "lf. he said, can accurate rail-

hardly any one who could be made TO
believe that it truly represents the actual
gtustion 10 would be deridod by the
ub.c as the product and hallucination of
a disordered intellect We know. for
instance, chat the rate on certain lines OF
Merchandise from Chicago to Denver Is
rary three times as much as the rate
on precisely the same line of merchan-
disc from New York TO San Francisco.
We know that the rate upon tirst-class
ingai from New England to the Gulf is
les, than the rate from Chicago 20 the
same terminals although the distance IS
more than 500 miles greater
Admitting the difficulty oi dealing with
this subject because OF the effect of water
competition Mr. Rayner said
what we require is a little common
sense upon this subject. We cannot pass

what we can do is to take "a broad view

cannot endow a tribunal with adequate

necessary discrimination is praciiced to
