In Los Angeles the proposed move

Art of Prehistoric Men.
From lions Herald.

The study of anthropology is steadily
concluded from the numerous paragraphs.
more or less scientific, which appear in
the newspapers and reviews dealing with
matters supposedly archaic and primeval.
A writer in Cosmos now advances the
thesis that some of the designs cut on the
low walls of their cave dwellings by pre-
historic men possess the elements of real
art, differing radically from the rude
drawings of modern sayages. Minute OBJ
servations made in the cavern OF Alta
mira in Spain of very curious ana re-
markable designs cut IN the low wars
seem to prove that the embellishments
were made by men of the Magdalenlan
epoch, at the end of the paleolithic period
(when stone implements We're SIMPLY
broken), and Immediately preceding the
neolithic period twhen the stone was pol
ished) The prehistoric men whose tools
have been found at La Madeleine, In the
valley of the Vezere, in France, chlpped
off the flint in very skilful fasiiloi,
cut bone and wood into poniards, lance
points, arrow-heads and needles, and
knew how to draw and carve with taste.
Certain of these drawings, according to
the writer in Cosmos, would not De out
of place In the cartoons of our modern
masters. Lotus Peralte says OF the d e-
signs IN the cave of Altamira that the
firrnness the sure technic, with when
they are executed is amazing. the de-
tails of the portrayal of the bodies of
animals showing a fine and curious OBJ
eervation The impression left by the
MagdaIenian designs is still more ac-
centuated when we think of the condi-
tions under which they were executed,
by primitive artists lying on their packs
in low caves, the work being laborlously
achieved by the dim light furnished by
little clay lamps of which few spec1-
mems have been found.

Confederate Memorial at Monocacy.

From the Baltimore Sun.
Fitzhugh Lee Chapter Daughters of the
confederacy, of Frederick has decided TO
erect "a memorial on the battlefield or
Monocacv to the southern soldiers who
fell in the fierce battle of July 3. 1864.
The states of New Jersey and Pennsyl-
vania have monuments at Monocacy to
the dead from those states who wore the
blue but there is nothing to remind the
world of the vaIor of the men who wore
the gray.
Next to the battle of Antietam. or
SharpsbUrg, the gagement at Mono
cacy was the greatest battle on Mary
land SOIL Although the numbers engaged
were small-about 1000 on each side
the fighting was fierce and the loss as
heavy, comparatively, as in many of the
greater battles of the civil war. The
Confederate forces under Early won "a
decisive victory over the Union troops
under Gen Lew Wallace. but the enemy's
determined stand delayed the Confederate
advance on Washington. The Union line
was broken by the desperate charges of
the Confederates, and the valor on both
sides was such to excite pride in the
breast of any patriotic American.
The brave men who fell at Monocacy.
no matter what the color of the uniforms
they wore deserve a memorial, and the
Frederick Daughters have an undertaking

LADIES' TAILORS TO MEET.
Association to Assemble in This City
February z.

Interest is growing in the convention
of the United Ladies Tailors' Associa-
ton, to be held at the Arlington Hotel
February I, 8, 8 and 10. This will be the
second convention held by the ladies'
tailors of the country, which will also
include national exhibition of all lines
of women's wear. The ladies' tailors will
compete for prizes. About 100 have al
ready returned the blanks mailed them a
few weeks ago, and thus the creative
ability of ladies' tailors from all over the
country will be shown.
The local tailors' association has re
ceived communications that lead to the
belief that upward of 1900 will come to
Washington for the convention. Com
mittees have been named to look after
this work The exhibition space in the
banquet halls of the Arlington will be a
scene of great beauty. Victor Mindeleff,
who designed the decorative scheme for
the inaugural ball, has been given the
commission by the tailors. Mr.. Minde-
left is regarded as the foremost expert on
crlors in the country.

Breadth of Chicago's Plan.
From the Century.


The first thing that strikes one in the
studies which have led to the new plan OF
Chicago is the comprehensive definition
the Commercial club has given to the city.
geographically. The plan extends to all
the territory within a radius Of sixty
miles from the heart of Chicago, and
considers all the territory within that
semicircumference as having definite re-
lations with the future city.
The creation of a metropolitan commits
sion for the management of this entire
area is recommended. but pending the
creation of such commission the pub
lie authorities and the Improvement asso-
Citations of every town are advised to con-
fer with their neighbors and agree on
the routes of the connecting highways,
the width and arrangement of the road
ways, sidewalks and planting spaces, and
the varieties of trees and shrubs to be
used for shade and ornament.
The object of this commission should
be to arrange direct highways leading
from all the outlying towns to Chicago
as their center, and also to connect the
suburban towns one with another by
well-built and well-maintained roads OF
width appropriate to the amount Of
traffic thereon.

0ld-Age Provision in Canada.
From the Troy Budget.

The Canadian government has an ar
rangement which virtually provides for
the old age of helpless persons, or which
enables those who are now in good 1t alth
to make provisions for the evil days when
life's strength shall be honestly gone. A
person can make IA deposit in a savings
bank or postal bank to the credit OF the
government. The deposits are compound
ed at per cent and provision is made
for the payment to the depositor of a
stipulated annuity when the total of the
deposit reaches a named sum. OF course
the amount Of the annuity will be com
puted according to the aggregate value
of the deposit Payments to the an
nutant may be made in lump sums or in
driblets as small as - cents week. The
annuities provided for may not be less
than $50 nor more than $500 a year.
Funds cannot be seized for debt nor
al.enated. There are no penalties nor
dues of any sort.
This plan combines the benefits of the
savings bank and the life insurance pol
icy. 1t seems to be well devised and it
ought to keep many from coming to want
in their old age.
