Today in
Washington History
By DONALD A. CRAIG.

September 6, I796.-A banking firm
in Holland, from which the District
Commissioners have expected to borrow
some of the money to construct public
buildings and otherwise improve the
new Federal city, notified them under
today's date that the unfavorable
circumstances of the times, the perjury
which then existed, made it impossible
to succeed at the moment"
This letter is in reply to a request
for loan sent May of this year. 1t
was a great disappointment to the
Commissioners and to all persons inter-
eSted in the quick development of the
new Federal metropolis of America.
The bankers. however, did hold out
some hope that something might be ac-
comDlished later on. But 1t is evident
from the tone OF their letter that they
do not have very strong expectations
in that direction.
Meanwhile the completion of the
Capitol. White House, other public
buildings and the laying out of the
streets and avenues, in accordance with
the ambitious LEnfant plan, are
ieGpardiZed.
The District Commissioners made it
known today nevertheless that they
hope that 1.-The amelioration of our
finances during the present season --
having reference undoubtedly 10 cS-
pected large payments from the Norris
Greenleaf real estate Syndicate-Will
enable them Ito prepare the necessary
buildings in time for the reception OF
Congress-"
Congress has not up to this time Of
fered to appropriate any money out OF
the public Treasury for the building
of the new Federal city. 1t has APP
parently been proceeding on the theory
and is still doing So--that the in
crease in the value of property that
will result from the permanent removal
of the Federal Capital from Phila-
6elphia to this site on the banks of
the Potomac River will create such en-
thusiasm among financiers both in this
country and abroad that no difficulty
will be found in raising by loans the
sums necessary for the purpose in view.
Their eyes are being opened some-
what, however, although they are still
hopeful that all will go well.
They point to the fact that the
Napoleonic Wars in Europe, in which
Holland has been to a large an extent
the battle-ground, or threatened battle
ground, have been responsible for the
failure of Holland bankers to respond
to the suggestion for a loan. They
are expectant that wealthy men, like
Greenleaf and Morris, in this country
will not be affected by these condi-
tions abroad and that all will yet go
well with the new national city in
short time.

ush is practical only 1t is true there
is sturdy appropriateness to rush that
lends grace to necessity, but cane can
be introduced without anw pretense of
necessity. The mesh of canework is
ornamental and the weaving is strong.
1t was because cane did not call for
such sturdy framework, and could be
used in delicate furniture, that it gained
its prestige and its distinction.
In the light of modern decoration
such traits as have been given are in
teresting. The vogue of Slat-back,
ladderback and Chippendale chairs of
the early English type have given to
rush furniture a recent vogue. Most OF
these types antedate cane furniture.
But it is well to note that cane has
the prestige described.
Cane furniture can be used in mod
ern decoration in which antiques are
not stressed, while rush furniture can
not. The latter, with the possible ex-
ception of Chippendale. which can be
used without such close harmony, calls
for antique decoration. Cane furniture
is brought out also in really modern
styles and can be used appropriately
with various types of furniture. Some
of the latest cane furniture is COM
bined with overstuffed upholstery Rush
furniture comes in reproductions, cane

Later some students with a scientific
curiosity took up the blonde brunette

represented these universities does not,
OF course, mean that their answers are
correct. It only means that their
methods of observation were probably
accurate and definite
These students believe that there is
nothing to the old theory that there
are definite blonde traits and definite
brunette traits Their general conclu-
sion is stated as follows: THE per-
centage of brunettes possessing blonde
traits is approximately as high as the
percentage of blondes possessing blonde
traits. Likewise, the percentage of
blondes possessing brunette traits is
also very similar TO the percentage of

never did. Brigham offered her 500 a

that. Under the rules of the Mormon
Church she was his wife. but under the
laws of the country she was not married

According to Ann Eliza. economy in

that whenever any one requested an

In this era of overstuffed furniture,
in which ease and comfort are often
stressed beyond beauty of line and grace
of form, it comes as something of
surprise to know that cane furniture
fthe kind in which wooden frames are
fitted with cane seats and backs) was
at one time considered the acme of
elegance. This has eve nbeen termed
the one-time royalty of furniture as dis
tinct from rush furniture, which, in
distinction, was termed plebeian. Such
a characterization has to be taken from
the viewpoint of the seventeenth or
early eighteenth centuries. 1t was then
that cane furniture came to hold its
high place in English and French dec
grafton.
1t is easy to see that cane lends
itself to finer furniture, with more deli
cate framework and chaste style. than
does the -bottomed sort. Also in
cane furniture the wooden backs could
be- made comfortable by the insertion
of cane squares. panels or shaped sec
tions of the framework. Rush is not

itself to various purposes in furniture,
such as decoration for head and foot

Gods Victory Robe.

uOu . SANbVAJ SNOONh
1.-THE wrath of man shall praise thee:
the remainder of wrath shalt thou
restrain '-Ps, 1xxvi.10.
The latter clause may be rendered,
1.-THE remainder of wrath shalt thou
grid upon thee"; or, with the re-
mainder of wrath shalt thou robe
kind oS victory robe.
We see all about us the havoc and
chaos wrought by the wrath of man.
Into what tattered remnants mans
wrath tears our laws, our teachings, our
ideals of commercial and social life,
and all else that We hold. dear and
precious. Indeed. as we look upon the
spectacle of destruction and ruin going
on around us, it seems as though man
will ultimately be destroyed from the
face of the earth by the madness of
his own sin and wrath.
But let us not despair; for God lives
and reigns. He lays restraining hand
upon the worlds madness. More than
that. He makes the wrath of man to
praise Him. Out of the remnants torn
by mans sin God weaveS Himself a
robe of victory.
Sins ruin becomes its remedy; its
destructiveness is its defeat; its poison
is its antitoxin.
The sight of infidelity's despair will
turn men from it. The sight of lust's
debauched and bedraggled victims will
make men sick of it. The knowledge of
greed's cruelty, of hates tortures. of
sins earthly hells, will drive men from
sin
When men turn from sin, to whom
do they turn? To whom can they turn
but to God? In the extremity of the
wretchedness and despair caused by his
sin. man is driven into the arms of
Divine grace and love. And then God
takes the remnants of mans ruin into
heavens weaving room and weaves
them into robe of victory for Himself.

1t was two days before Impy saw that
strange Chipmunk near his home for
the second time. He popped out from
under the fern surrounding his door
way just in time to catch a glimpse of
the stranger scampering along the rail
fence. Rage filled Impy's heart as he
started after the stranger. But the
stranger could run and in very short
time Impy had lost sight of this tor
mentor. You see, that is the way that
Impy regarded the stranger. He didn't
want any one around; yet this stranger
persisted in coming.
Impy turned around and went back.
He climbed to the highest stone on the
pile of stones, and there he sat and
chartered. BY and by he had feeling
that some one was watching him. He
turned suddenly in time to see tail
disappear between some of the stones
of that pile. My, but Impy was upset.
Never have you seen any one more up
set. This was unforgivable impudence,
He started to hunt for the intruder.
In and out he ran between the stones
of that pile, hut he didn't find the in
truder. Once more he climbed to the
top stone. And then shortly the same
thing happened again. This time. how
ever, 1mpy got a better look at the
stranger and, curiously enough, his
anger suddenly melted away. He
couldn't have told you why; it just
melted away, that was all.
This time Impy didn't follow. He
remained where he was and it wasn't
! long before he saw pair of bright eyes
| peeping at him from behind stone.
He sat perfectly still. Those bright eyes
remained still also. He knew they were
watching him. Impy pretended not to
see them. After a long long time the
| prettiest Chipmunk Impy had ever seen
hoped up on stone a little distance
away.
What is your name?" asked Impy,

she disappeared. She was very BASH

was becoming excited. He hunted for
