An agreeable oddly in current fic-
ton is the imaginary conversation In
the December Century carried on by
Maurice Hewlett with his own crea-
ton, 'Senhouse." 1t brings the first Of
a series of papers on The Trade of the
World, to be written by authorities OF
high standing. In this first paper Ar
thur Stanley Riggs discusses The
Commerce of Spain, dwelling upon its
growth and it's opportunities for Amer
leans. The Hon. Champ Clark starts
a fruitful subject for discussion in an
article taking up the question Is Con-
gressional Oratory a Lost Art? Mr..
Clark is inclined to think that it is a
lost art, the reasons for which he finds
in the changed conditions of our civ
ilization--the telegraph. the electric
roads, the lack Of time generally-all
of which, he thinks, acts as a curb upon
the emotionalism for which orators
depended in making their effects.
There are many other bright features.

GEORGIA HoNoRs ITSELF.

The people of Georgia have bought
the house in which Joel Chandler Har-
ris-the "Uncle Remus" dear to more
than one generation of readers lived
among them many years. They have
planned to keep it just as ii was when
the last "Br'er Rabbit" story was
written.
Already it is a shrine which is visit
ed by travellers in Georgia. When all
the country finds little more time
to sift the gold from the dross in
the field of literature the house for
merly occupied by one OF the most
characteristic of American writer's is
likely to become a shrine, where thou
sands of people will go to mediate a
little while on the services of one who
achieved distinction for himself and
reflected credit upon his country.
This action by the people of Georgia
is the more to be commended, because
Joel Chandler Harris made of his own
home shrine while he lived and
there are special reasons why his place
of abode should not pass into the
hands Of strangers.
He was peculiarly home man. In
the sacred place which he established
and maintained, he dwelt chiefly with
the creatures of his brain but some
times, in kindly and hospitable fash
ion, with those who sought him.
He was not wanderer, and the gay
show of the world did not appeal. to
him. AS the anatomist can construct
a perfect body, given fragment as
an index and as a musician can ell in
the various parts of harmony, given
the melody or theme of the master
composer so it seems easy to draw
portrait of Joel Chandler Harris
from the pages he wrote for the glad
dening of children and the content
ment of the old.

AERoPLANE BOMBS.

inson radically differs from army
opinion as to the possibilities of the
aeroplane as a bomb thrower in time
of battle. The views Of the skeptical

contrary impressions are based on
what he saw and experienced in
France, where the development of the
aeroplane as an instrument OF war
fare is admittedly far in advance OF
what we can show The secretary is
convinced that the machine which
flew along with him and a French
army officer at the rate Of mile a
minute will shortly be developed to
the point of carrying quantity of
explosives, which, when dropped a.
targets on the ground, will be prac-
tically as accurate and effective as
projectiles fired from warships and

to impress upon President Taft and
the congress the advisability of max

if possible, take the lead. In all other
essentials, the secretary assures us,
our army is the most efficient in the
world.

Judging from the wonderful pro-
gress military aviation has made since
its abrupt abandonment by our army
authorities two years ago, American
designers and constructors will be put
to it to produce machines which win
meet the immediate requirements. Had
it been given proper encouragement at
the start, the same ingenuity that
gave existence to the very first aero
plane adapted to army uses, doubt
less would still be outstripping all
other nations. We would not be under
the necessity of going abroad to meet
the emergency, one which should never
| have arisen.
That the mistake is to be corrected
as soon as congress can act is obvious
| The army appropriation bill doubtless
will carry a provision adequate to the
purpose in view. And such being the
prospect, Vhy not at once go so far
in a preliminary way, as to let our
aeroplane builders see that it would
be worth while to get down to work
to meet the prospective demand for
bomb throwing aeroplanes without
waiting for further orders?

MODEST FRIENDS
HIDE NUDE STATUE
Shield 1t from Public Gaze
by Draping 1t.

Curious persons who gathered last night
about the home OF Mrs. Albert Clifford
Barney, 1906 Massachusetts avenue
northwest, TO see the statue Of a nude
woman lying on the grass beneath the
scant shelter OF the trees, went away
OFFICIALLY hungry. Friends OF the family
had covered the statue with a cloth that
totally obscured the white marble.
II is probable that the statue will be
placed IN the Barney home to-day, for
tile family has been shocked by the sen
satlon caused by the unintended exhibit
ton. II is the likeness Of Miss Natalie
Barney. and was carved In Paris by Miss
Laura Alice Barney. q sister Of Miss

home was surrounded by the curious.

day, and il IL is not moved soon II will

Slave or the Venus de Milo. Mrs. Bar
