WORK Of WHISTLER
EXHIBITED IN LONDON
Action of National Gallery of
British Art Causes Much
Surprise.
Special Cablegram to The Star

Special Cablegram to The Star.
LONDON, October 5.-The National
Gallery Of British Art known as the
Tate Gallery" has INDUCED itself in a
rare and most interesting experiment 1t
has given the British public what it does
not want; namely. an exhibition Of the
works of Whistler. Certainly the art of
Whistler is not a commodity for which
England has clamored. So it was sur
prising to see such a remarkable exhibi-
ton of French in the public's stronghold.
Compared with the Whistler exhibition IN
the Metropolitan Museum in New York in
1910 the present wonderful exhibition is
a revelation.
However. the main revelation to the
American visitor lies chiefly in the man.
ner of its reception. America has always
claimed Whistler as her son, even though
an ungrateful one, but in London, where
he lived. died and did his work, he is
recognized simply by passing comment.
furnishing good material for drawing
room anecdotes among the quasi-artistic.
Merely quiet little anteroom to Tur-

to the exhibition Surely If the ''butter-
fly" were to walk once more among his
works the London Times would shortly

Whistler ever allowed himself to paint.
Meanwhile this important obligation
having been met. the remainder of the
collection is scattered pell nell over four
dirty red walls. apparently the main idea
being to cover as many bad places in
the paint as possible. No doubt this alb
sence of taste is due largely to the utter
Indifference of the people, or perhaps it
is vice versa.
But there could be no greater contrast
than the beautifully decorated gallery in
the Metropolitan Museum of two years
ago, filled with it's tbrongs Of visitors. to
the sparsely populated present exhibition.
Surely. to paraphrase an old adage, this
is case where a prophet has received
honor everywhere save in his adopted
country.

Complete Landscaping of
Pan-AmeriCan Grounds

THE work of landscaping the grounds
! of the Pan-American Bureau. which
has been in progress the entire summer, is
practically completed. Only few shrubs
and evergreens remain to be set out, the
box hedges being already in place. the
lawns made, the sunken gardens which
form a parterre between the street and
the building being completed and the
water garden between the main building
and the executive building being finished
ready for setting out water lilies and
other aquatic plants next season.
1t was at first believed the work would
be finished by September /, but owing to
the character of the soil composing the
grounds a great deal OF extra work has
been necessary. The original soil was
dredged from the Potomac flats. and was
sour and full of gas. Under the sun this
soil speedily baked into the consistency
Of unburnt brick. and was, of course, to-
tally unsuited for growing grass or any
sort of shrubbery. It was necessary to
spread hundreds Of wagonloads of fertile
marshes. and the extra work has delayed
the completion Of the job.
Box hedges have been planted along the
borders of the driveways and beside the
paths In the sunken gardens In front and
intersecting the water garden In the rear
of the building. Along the marble cop
ings larger box plants have been set out,
while the main building has been mar
ried to the ground" as the landscaper
expresses it, with a solid bed of box and
evergreens.
The trees that originally grew in the
grounds have been left. and spacious
lawns have been made on the north and
south sides Of the building. At the two
| entrances on the 18th street side masses
of evergreens and shrubbery have been
| planted. while toward the rear of the
| main building dense coppice Of rhodo-
dendrons. evergreens. holly and other va
| rieties of shrubs has been arranged.
Between the main building and the
| executive building. which Is not quite
| completed, the water garden has been
placed. 4 long pool, tile lines and Dor
dered. will be filled with water lilies and
| other plants next summer. and the walks
| beside this pool will make an attractive
promenade. The pool is fed from the
west end. where a monster bullfrog Of
bronze forms the fountain. Above the
| frog sits an Aztec idol. and back of this a
marble balustrade separates the pool

LARD CAN WILD CAT STILLS
Revenue Officer Made Big Haul East
of Dawson Saturday. Four
Arrests Resulted.

While it has been generally believ-
ed for several years that a great deal
of wild cat whisky was being made
in the county no arrests resulted I'M
til last Saturday, when Charles Will
liams, United States deputy mar
shall, put in his appearance and made
four arrests of negroes. AS many
distilleries, if they can be so called,
were taken possession of, together
with quantity of mash at one place.
Three of the negroes who were ar
rested are tenants on Mr.. G. w. Do
ziers farm, and are named Bob
Black, Gene Holt and Arthur Mack.
The fourth, Tom Johnson, lived on
the farm of Mr.. H. T. Bridges. The
negroes were brought to Dawson,
where they gave bond and were re-
leased by the officer. They will be
tried in the United States court at
Columbus.
The stills were lard cans with CT
binary pipe for worms. One of the
negroes had his distillery in his back
yard covered with crocus sacks.

MUST NOT SELL THE STATE RAILROAD

railroad company. 1 believe their
report will bring to light some infor-
nation of Importance and value in
dealing with the future of this great
state property"
Discussing the subject of pardons
Mr.. Slaton made the interesting
statement that before a criminal
case reaches the governor for action
upon an application for executive
clemency it has ben passed upon by
twenty-five officers of the state, each
sworn to enforce the law.
These" said Mr.. Slaton, ARE the
arresting officer, the committing
magistrate, the trial Judge, the pros
ecuting attorney, the twelve jurors,
the six justices of the supreme court
and the three members of the prison
commission. 1t is tremendous bur-
den of responsibility for a governor
to override the opinion and decision
of these twenty-five sworn officers of
the state, and believe he should be
slow about it.
AT the same time I recognize that
there are some instances in which
executive clemency should be exer-
cised judiciOusly, but it must be done
always with a thought in mind of
the interests of society, of the peo-
pie generally, as we'll as the claims
and rights of the prisoner.
While acting governor, following
the resignation of Gov. Hoke Smith,
Mr.. Slaton passed on seven or eight
cases in which capital punishment
had been imposed. He granted COM
mutation in only two of these cases,
one that of a negro in Milton county
in whose case the prison commission
had unanimously recommended life
Imprisonment, and the other that Of
a white man in Brooks county, who
had been pronounced insane by a
board of medical experts.
