Home of Charles Carroll.
from the Baltimore sun.

ROM lnt bdIiH'ff SUI.
In an interesting letter published by
us Sunday the suggestion is made
that the old home OF Charles Carroll of
Calrollton. a fine mansion at the corner
of Lombard and Front streets in this
city. should be purchased by some pa
triotic society and rescued from the
uses To which ii is now devoted. Our
correspondent says that. while the walls
of the stately and spacious building are
still standing strong and unimpaired. tho
interior is going To ruin. lie thinks that
the building should he restored to it's
original form and used az a public mu-
scum of mementos of Carroll and of the
times in which he lived. And he further
suggests that the project might u. sup
ported by charging small admission
fee.
This is an excellent suggestion. Re-
Gently the home of Francis Scott Key.
in Georgetown has been purchased by a
"keY Society" and in many parts of the
country historic homes are preserved in
a similar manner. 1t has often been as
serted that Baltimore has few places or
public interest to attract visitors and
that the city makes poor use of those II
has. Fort McHenry, because of its de-
Tense in 1914 and its connection with the
writing OF THE Star Spangied Banner,
would be a .show place" if situated in
Boston. or, indeed. i'm nearly any other
city Here but little attention is paid
to the old fort. There are number OF
historic buildings in this city and An
napolis. but some of them, il not actually
neglected. are not priced and honored as
they should be.
Charles Carroll had two splendid homes
besides the one in Baltimore, and both
of them are being preserved. Carroll
ton, the fine mansion in Annapolis,
where he spent his early life and where
his father lived, is the property of the
Catholic Church and is in use as Re
demptorist Seminary. 1t is Well cared
for. From this place Mr.. Carroll took
the designation of Carrollton. which he
alta hed TO his name TO distinguish hlm
from another Charles Carroll.

4 decorative scheme of unexampled
gorgeousness has been worked out for the
Tenth National Automobile Show, to ,e
held in Madison Square Garden during
the week of January to 10. For six
months past the show committee of the
Association of Licensed Automobile Man
ufacturers, under whose auspices the af-
fair is held, has been putting forth siren
uouS efforts in the work of preparing an
adequate setting for the standard makes
of motor cars. Yearly it has been the
aim of the show managers to provide a
decorative scheme suitable to the ex-
.hibits and at the same time furnish
patrons of the show with spectacle as
artistic as is practicable for so short a
period. More than $4,000 is being eX-
pended for decorations of the 1910 show.
AS usual. the full description of the dec
orative scheme has been withheld by the
show committee, but it is now released
an. it discloses that Roman amphitheater
of dignified architectural design will con-
stitute the decorative theme and serve
as background for the exhibits. The
garden interior this year will be richer
and more magnificent than for any pre-
viouS affair, although perhaps less profuse
in treatment. The bare walls, steel grid
ers and balconies of the structure will be
lost to view and the whole interior so
transformed that by only a small stretch

is that of the broad and unobstructed
