nothing surer than death and taxes. It is good news. If we have escaped the tax, it may be we will miss death. We thought we had been taxed; and If "Citizen" will send name to us in care of the News, we will forward it to the assessor, and all be jolly and taxed together.
 We also learn that the school house is to have piano as gift from the teachers. We think that if the Council had intended tu furnish the school with piano by means of vaudeville or theatrical performance it would have employed some vaudeville artist to teach the young hopefuls, and have allowed teachers to go on with their legitimate work and teach them the three R. R. Rs, in order that they might take the grades in other schools, if necessary, when leaving this.
 "Citizen" speaks slightingly of the amount spent here on the schools. We'll, it is the opinion of some ot the council and others. that it is about 20 per cent too much.
 We have too much pedagogical light; we need more pedagogy, and, if the right approver of the old school regime" gets elected we hope he will be duly and properly chaperoned.

tunity to something entirely novel in
the way of pictures that have all the appearance
of real life. AS they pass along a corridor, they
will look through series of windows, and will be-
hold landscapes and birds of different kinds the
view extending seemingly over immense distances
Of course, it trick of optics, but certainly most
ingenious and admirable. In each instance the
scenery is painted on canvas and the picture
exquisitely executed merges mperceptibly into
real foreground after the manner of the panorama
Each scene occupies sort of box not than
fifteen feet square by nine feet in height the back
made concave but the effect is artfuly contrived
that is easily deceived into imagining that the
prospect extends over many miles.
For example, one of the scenes represents Pelican

quented by thousands of breeding peicans, which
are there protected by the Government against
interference by self styled sportsmen or other
depredators. Utmost pains have been taken to
reproduce the aspect of the surroundings with a
literal frankness, and of territory the
birds are seen their nests feeding their young.
In the foreground real stuffed and felke pelcans
similarly engaged with sand and clumps of vegeta-
ton to help out the illusion.
Another scene shows sandhill cranes in a swamp,

glass case with sheet of canvas at the back, on
which is painted very artistic picture representing
more birds of the same kind with the incidental
scenery of actual breeding ground in the Bahamas.
Another arrangement, somewhat similar, depicts
bird life on Cobb Island, Virginia. The
sea is rolling in upon the beach, nests and eggs
in the foreground, among clumps of real beach
grass; and some of the birds flying about (sus-
pended by invisible wires).
This idea is all very we'll as far as it goes, but it
is imperfect. A rectangular case of such a kind
cannot look like bit of nature exactly, and the
glass front reflects Objects spelling the effect to
some extent. By the new method described, how
these difficulties done away with entirely.
The spectator is in the attitude of one looking out
through window upon the scene, and behind him
is blank wall covered with black CLOTH giving no
rays for the glass to reflect. But the result thus
obtained must be seen to be appreciated adequately
1t should not be imagined that this method is
applicable only to representations of bird or other
animal life. The same thing be done with
chronological groups, properly arranged to
exhibit, with painted background and properly
contrved foreground, the every day surroundings
of the people to be represented. How much more
interesting and instructive such groups will be than
the wooden looking ones ordinarily shown in
rectangular cases of glass, it is easy to imagine.

Vanity and extravaganza, frivolity and weakness

eyes cannot reach beyond the artifcialities that

none. And although the factory girl for instance,
should make better wages than she, the salesady
would nevertheless feel for her contempt based
upon an imaginary difference in caste. She believes
that if work is inevitable, the most desirable oCcu-

BRIGHTWooD PARK.
Meeting of Citizens Association
Held Last Night.

A meeting of the BrightWood Park Citi-
zens Association was held last evening
at 8 o'clock in Thomas Hall, corner of
Longfellow street and Brightwood avenue.
President A NJ. Condra called the meet
ing to order, with Mr. Homer Smith as
secretary.
The committee on lights and trees sub
mitted a report requesting the planting of
trees on Madison street from Brightwood
avenue to 9th street: 1ngraham street
from Brightwood avenue to 9th street:
Kennedy street from 5th to Tth streets:
Hamilton from Brightwood avenue to 9th
street: 9TH from Longfellow to Kennedy;
9Th from Kennedy to Jefferson streets, and
Illinois avenue from Brightwood avenue
to Hamilton street. The committee alsv
recommended that gas lamps be placed on
the south side of Ingrallam street be-
tween Brightwood and Illinois avenues.
The secretary read a letter from the
Commissioners stating that an estimate
for a $4,000 building for a subpolice sta
ton at Anacostia had been recommended
in the annual estimates, and that il would
be impossible to ask for an estimate for
a substation at Brightwood. The asso-
citation, however decided to renew its re-
quest through Maj Sylvester, to be in
cluded in the next annual estimates.
A resolution was read from the East
Washington Heights Citizens Association
relative to securing protection from the
weather for the outside dealers at the va
riouS market houses The matter was
referred TO a committee composed OF
Messrs. J. l.. Ergood, L. J. Ayres and +.
l.. Miller for report.
President Condra was directed to at
tend the meeting of the Civic Center at

aims. The meetings will be held monthly.
and the representatives OF the various civic
organizations will have an opportunity OF

The secretary. on motion of Mr.. Ergood.
was requested to notify each member that
the question of joining the civic center
would be discussed and action taken at
the next meeting of the associa .ior on the
proposition
On motion of Mr.. z. J. Ayres the asso-
citation adopted a resolution requesting
the Commissioners to open and grade an
alley between Piney Branch and 13th
streets. south of Madison street, the OBJ
ject being to drain the adjacent land.
The question Of placing the water me-
ters in the lawns was discussed by Mr..
