DAMAGE DONE TO COLISEUM
English Writer Criticizes Action of
the Authorities in Removing
Ivy From the Walls.

For many centuries down to Febru-
airy l. 1872, there was solemn pro-
cession from the Church of San Glenn
ente 10 the Coliseum in Rome, carry
ing the relics of Saint Ignatius, the
disciple of ST. John and companion
of Polycarp, around the scene where
on that date he had been devOured
by lions as the first of the martyrs
OF the Coliseum. The spot where
shortly after his death 10 Christians
were shot down by arrows was
marked, until 1872. by n cross which
was then destroyed.
"The dealings of the authorities
with that ancient monument have been
neither merciful nor tender" says an
article In Cornhill Uondon). ma

an exquisite veil of greenery; fora
so marvellous and interesting that
books had been written on its 400 va
rieties. few of which were so rare
that their seeds are supposed TO have
come in ancient days in the cages Of
wild beasts from tropical countries.
They have all been scraped away, the
walls are bare, and more damage has
been done 10 them by dragging out
the roots Of the shrubs than might
have happened naturally in the course
of centuries.

Ruskin's "Flower Wedding."

There is beautiful passage about

one liking to be clean, the other to
be dirty: one liking to grow for the
most part up, the other for the most
part down, and each having faculties
and purposes of its own.
'But the pure one which loves the
light has. above all things. the pur-
pose of being married to another leaf,
and having child leaves, and chill

earth fair forever. And when the
leaves marry they put on wedding
robes and are more glorious than Sol

feasts of honey, and we call them

This done. the sponges pass 10 other

later they go To the graders, who

size. The next process is that of dry
