Latest Electrical Wonder at j
the Paris Exposition.
Washington Toat.
Electricity will play a most im-
portant part in the superb attrac-
tions of the Paris exposition of
1900. To begin with', the Palace
of Electricity will be the most
dazzlingly, bewilderingly beauti-
ful structure ever conceived b y
architectural mind. Apart from
the beautiful effects produced on
the exterior of this illuminated
gem, the structure in itself will be
a beautiful one.
It is a capacious building, de-
signed for nse as mnoh as orna-
ment, and with both the useful-
ness and the beauty harmoniously
olsnded so that neither is obstrn-
-.ively pronounced. The building
is square in shnpe, with a cupola
at each corner, and the main parr
is a mass of delicate ornamenta-
tion that in the daytime will give
the building the appearance of
one of those gorgeously handsome
strnctnres, and at, night-time,
when ablaze with electric light,
will make a sight that for illumi
nated loveliness almost baffle?
description.
In the central courtyard of the
building a great fountain will play.
This fountain will be illuminated
after dark by varicolored electric
lights that will make of the glit-
tering water a red, white, yellow,
blue and green fairy fountain,
whose falling waters will rival the
rainbow in cascades of color. . On
the exterior of the palace electric-
ity in many hned forms will light
up the handsome ornamental
work, casting flickering shadows
that will play hide and seek with
the rays of innumerable sma^l
electric lamps placed at intervals
on the walls and roof of the build-
ing.
To crown all, the topmost pin
nacle of the building will be a
flashing mass of electrical flame
that will light np and seem to h*
part of a beautiful statuesque
group designed by one of Eu
rope’s foremost sculptors. Tire
design is intended to be one o‘
the features of the building, and a
number of designs for the group
were snbmitted before one was
deemed imposing enough for tl e
requirements.
The interior will be lighted rp
with a blaze of electricity, and as
the structure is liberally provided
with windows this great disp’ry
of incandescent lights will give ii
at a little distance the appearance
of a building aglow with a whi'-e
heat. Its light will be seen e )
oveir Paris, and the electrical dis-
play it will make entitles this pal
toe to be considered the wondei
of the exposition.

Great Minds That Participated In
That Incident of the Republic’s
Early Days—The “Backwoods Ruf-
fian”—flnrr Compared With Quay.
Two Giant Intellects — Republican
Rottenness In California.
tSpecial ’Washington Latter.]
‘The most august legislative body on
earth” is the proud and haughty title
which the senate of the United States
has long arrogated to itself: bnt, con-
sidering some of the unsavory char-
acters now holding seats there and some
who are trying to “break in” to the
charmed circle, it may be not unreason-
ably conclnded that the real name of
that chamber of the ancients shonld he
changed into something more unassnm-
ing. It will be remembered that Sen-
ator Quay of Pennsylvania and Senator
Kenney of Delaware—the former a Re-
publican, the latter a Democrat—are
under indictment for felony; not such
felony as murder, manslaughter or as-
sault with intent to kill, which might
be committed under sudden and irre-
sistible provocation by any man of hot
temper, even by a man who is essen-
tially a good and moral citizen, bnt for
felony involving dishonesty as to money.
If these men are guilty at all, they can-
not even plead the poor excuse of igno-
rance for violating the laws cf their
country, for they possess exquisite in-
tellects and are justly reputed. men of
learning. Nor have they to urge in
mitigation that necessity cf hunger
which has induced many a poor and
•tarving wretch to infract that portion
jf the Decalogue which says, “Thou
-halt net steal, ’ ’ for both of these grave
and reverend seigniors are men of sub-
stance.
Hitherto in these letters I have said
that as a matter of ordinary justice and
"or the sake of our good name as a peo-
ple we should suspend judgment upon
these two illustrious culprits until they
•an have a fair trial by an impartial
jury of their countrymen; Kenney, the
Delaware Democrat, a young and hand-
some man, has had two such trials, re-
sulting in each instance in a “hnng
jury.” Ho appears to be always ready
for t) ial, and must therefore believe in
his own innocence, especially as the
machinery of the court in which his
.:.ase is impending is in the hands of his
political enemies. So it would appear
from surface indications that Senate#
Kenney is more sinned against than sin-
ning. By the love we bear our institu-
tions let us hope that this is true and
fhat ho will pass unscathed through the
fiery furnace.
A DistliiKnisheti Personage.
Save and except Aaron Burr alone
Matthew Stanley Quay is far and away
the most distinguished personage that
ver appeared in the criminal dock on
his continent. True, Andrew Johnson,
resident of the United Slates, Was im-
peached, and Maximilian of Hapahnrg,
mi disant emperor of Mexico, w.ts
-tood up against a wall and shot as a
common malefactor, bnt they do not
count. They were actors in great politi
cal dramas. Nobgdv charged them with
violating the Ten CSommandments. Nq-
body accused them of any mental'con
"usion as to meum and tuuin. No sheriff
lared lay his _ hand upon their collars
and say, “In the name of the cptnmpa
wealth I arrest you as a common thief,"
Sven Burr, though actually indicted by
a grand jury and tried l?y a petit jury,
securing the dubious triumph ist the
scotch verdict of “Not proved, ’’’ is in
a class superior to Quay; for his crime,
if any he committed or meditated, was
a political crime, just such as Philip of
Macedon, Caesar, Napokou the iireai,
Louis Pbillippe, Napoleon the jUttle
and divers others meditated and com-
mitted and are lauded ifi history for so
doing.
Trial of Aaron Barr.
That Burr contemplated seizing Mex-
ico and converting it into an empire of
which he should bo the emperor, with
succession to bis daughter, the weE be-
loved Theodosia and her little son, is
as clear to me as that George Washing'
ton was once president of the United
the cause of human freedom inestima-
ble services as a statesman, to be hailed
as the foremost man of all this world
and to win renown that will never,
never die—Andrew Jackson of Tennes-
see.
As a spectator of that astounding
scene was a youth of abnormal physical
proportions—a veritable giant—a fa-
mous son of Anak—a student of the pa-
cific profession of the law, fated to a
fighting career in which he won mili-
tary laurels from the heart of frozen
Canada to the ancient halls of the Mon-
tezumas, to be a lieutenant general of
the United States and the worst defeat-
ed candidate for the presidency ever
nominated by a great party—Winfield
Scott.
At the reporter’s table sat a hand-
some, intelligent figure, born to be our
most distinguished man of letters, min-
ister plenipotentiary and envoy extra-
ordinary to the court of Spain and
founder of the American school of hu-
morists—Washington Irving of blessed
memory.
But above them all towers Burr, the
central figure, the prisoner at the bar,
the keenest intellect and finest lawyer
in the lot, absolutely certain of his
technical innocence of high treason,
the crime with which he was charged,
whose punishment was death upon the
gaEows tree, smiling in the faces of
his prosecutors and his persecutors and
defying them to their very teeth.
Even a man who believes him guilty
and who detests treason may still ad-
mire this soldier of the Revolution, the
companion of Arnold and the friend of
Montgomery, the grandson of Jonathan
Edwards, the son of President Burr of
Princeton, the slayer of Alexander
Hamilton, ex-vice president of the
United States, as he steps forth ruined,
but free, into God’s sunshine; for crim-
inal though he was, destitute of a moral
sense as the beasts that perish, still he
had demonstrated that he possessed
many of those qualities which men ap-
plaud and women love.
Aaron B^rr and Matthew Quay. *
Aaron Burr and Matthew Stanley
Quay are both Warwicks, president
makers, if not king makers; greater in-
deed than the original Warwick, as an
American president is greater than an
English king. Nothing is clearer in all
history than that Aaron Burr made
Thomas Jefferson president and that
Matthew Stanley Quay performed the
same office for Benjamin - Harrison.
Both , Burr and Quay cut tremendous
swaths in politics. The history of tin
republic cannot" be truthfully written
and leave them out. Both are sons of
Presbyterian preachers, and both were
indicted for felony. There the parallel
ceases—by comparison very much to the
Credit of Burr,'for he, broken in fortune
and without official position, boldly and
manfully fought his enemies on their
own ground and conquered ..them,
while a majority of his feUow citizens
were clamoring for his blood. He

“And now look. On the heels of
these new and unprecedented events of
involving additional glory to onr Amer-

are confronted with the most astonish-
ing piece of effrontery that has ever

safe to say that never before in the his-
tory of the United States was it ever
seriously proposed to elect to the senate

rived from dirty politics and an in-
come from a mine that he is under in-
dictment for stealing.
‘Every man that works and votes for

already the chief executive of this state,
; ust honored with a large majority of
votes, has made a threat as to patronage
that means a sop to Burna The action
of Governor Gage in this matter is as-
tounding and a lasting disgrace to the
state of California.
“It is not to the interests of the Re-
publican party that Burns be elected.
Pure selfishness would dictate his de-
feat. The only ones to be benefited that
I have heard of are the Democrats, who
are chuckling over the possibility of the
Republicans making such fools of them-
selves.
Our plain duty, then, yours and
mine, is to form public opinion; is to
express our views In every legitimate
way and to use every possible influence
in favor of good government and as
against a monstrous political crime like
this. The future promises great things
for America, but if the people choose
leaders like Burns, rottenness and ruin
wiU eventually come to pass.
Bnt Bums is not the only pebble on
the beach.
The California papers are fuU of the

lover of his kind plight well applaud

Bnt I did not begin this letter pri-
marily to write of Quay or even Burr,
fybp is p most fascinating theme always,
but to refer once more to the senatorial
candidacy of one Daniel M. Burns of
California. If one tithe of what the San
Francisco Call, a stanch Republican
paper, says pf him true, he ought to
be in the penitentiary instead of the
senate of the United States, and it proves
conclusively that we are far on the road
to the deuce when such a man can even
aspire to that high position with any
show of success. Even his pandidacy
4emopstrates the utter Rottenness of Re-
publican politics. The Call, after try-
ing for weeks to express it3 own disgust
in its own vitriolic style, quotes among
muph more of the satpe sort the follow-
ing choice utterances from a sermon of
Rev. H. S. Brush of Alameda:
“The greatest crime of the century is

THE DELINEATOR

illustrations and descriptions of
present and prospective styles in
every department of dress, and a
".amber of literary features that
mske the magazine one of the
■most readable of the month, to-
gether with discussions of great
household interest. Besides spec-
ial articles oovering a wide range
of timely themes, there are the
ever fascinating lace-making, fat-
ting, knitting, ' crocheting, and
social observances.
THE LADIES’ HOME JOURNAL
for February offers more than the
expected variety of literary and
pictorial featnres. Besides inter-
esting articles tonching on social
and everyday life, and several en-
tertaining serials, two pages are
worthily devoted to pictures of
“ The Prettiest Country Homes in
America,” and two more ^o “ In-
side of a Score of Gardens,” Bar-
ton Oheyney tells boys why and
where they should learn trades,
and Helen Wattersnn Moody
writes on “ What it Means to be

priced magazine in America (20

partment, The Penny Magazine,

THE SOUTHERN FARM MAGAZINE
f >r February contains a number
of articles dealing directly with
the diversification of crops, which
is assuming greater proportions in
the South with every season. In
turning from cotton as the mopey
crop, agriculturists of the South
are interesting themselves in oth-
er lines. While special classes of
readers will find much to interest
them in the several departments
of the magazine, all can not fail
to be impressed by the wise coun-
sels of Ool. J. B, Killebrew, who,
in a thoughtful article, sets forth
the advantages to be derived by
agriculturists and others in the
South from a' nourishing of crea-
tive capital. Published monthly

REVIEW OF REVIEWS.
In the February number of the
American Monthly Review of
Reviews the editor seeks to apply
the lessons of our national fail-
ures in the South during the re-
construction period following the
Civil war to the present problems
of a similar nature in Cuba, Porto
Rico, and the Philippines. His
deductions are interesting and in-
structive. He says : “ The true
way to restore the South to the
Union after the war was to re-
