To the Editor of Tue EVENING STAR: ‘The Smithsonian Institution building is one of the few public structures in this capital which men of taste in architecture can point out to strangers with pride and satisfaction. As It stood prior to the erection of the national Museum the beauty of the Smithsonian was in- creased by the harmony of its surroundings, but now as it is approached from the east or the north the incongruous edifices near it in that direction cannot but give to persons of | taste the most painful emotions, The ruinous work has not as yet, however, n completed, for, from 12th street or from B. Street southeast, between 11th and 12th, a fine View can still be had of the Smithsonian, by taking care to keep the museum building out of the eye of the observer. But, horrible to tell! even this view is likely soon to be destroyed by the erection of an unsightly building for the museum West of the Smithsonian, where no sort of a structure can be erected without in- terfering with the fine view now to be had ot the Smithsonian, much less anything so 1 congruous as a duplicate of the National mu- seum building would be. As this government ‘owes the Smithsonian to the generosity of a foreigner, it is to be _noped that it will not be so unjust as to render the building erected by his bounty a source of pain and agony to all lovers of the beautiful by surrounding it with un- sightly edifices, _dlore room is| unquestionably needed by the National museum, but it is respectfully sabmit- ted that this government, with its overflowing treasury, is able to buy the land it needs for its uses, without crowding the parks with public buildings on account of so-called economical considerations. The National museum will ultimately need more buildings than can possi- bly be accommodated in the park without ut- terly destroying it, Why, then, shculd not Jand be purchased fn the adjoining squares or elsewhere tor the bulldings? The matter is as broad as itis long. If the parks are taken for public buildings now, 1and will hereafter have to be purchased for parks, at largely increased rices. At a low estimate ten or twelve new uildings will be required by the government before the end of this century. How can space be found for these without condemning squares now occupied by buildings? In view of this fact would It not be well for the National mu- Seum authorities to abandon the plan of butld- ing in the park, and seck for the accoiamoda- tlons they need in some of the adjoining squares? ‘ihe talk of another museum building is a mater of grave concern to all who have the best intrests of Washington at heart. The Present museum building is scarcely tolerable, while the pension oifice ts one of the worst ex amplesof bad taste in publicarehitecture which has ever dissraced a civilized country. A lew | More such buildings would intolerably annoy all persons of go them trom the national capital in despair. The best interests of this elty demand that efficient measures should be taken to guard against th Tepetition of any more such blunders as the pension office buliding and to prevent the vir tual destruction of our beautitul parks by fill- ing them with public edifices. ‘The taste of the people ot Washington and of the country at large is too far advanced to be satisfied with some of the recent specimens of public architecture in this capital. There are certainly many arebitects who possess genius Sapgole of suitably emivllishing Washington by tasteful public buil is itexcept @ narrow and niggardly policy which shuts them out trom the tue opportunities they ought to have here of gaining immortal re- nown by designs worthy of such a city as this ought to be? . W. oo ———____ The Matter of Street Ope: To the Editor of THE EVENING STAR: Now that the property holders in LeDrolt park are entitied to appear before the District Commissioners to defend their claim to the right of obstructing the streets leading north- ward from Boundary street, and as the property holders on the other side of the park fence, equally interested, have not been ealled upon to present their side of the case, will THE STAR, to whom the people now appeal in vain, give them a hearing? ‘Six years previous to placing upon record the plat of “1eDroit Park” the Howard university grounds had been platted, and the lots sold, with the reasonable expecta~ tion of the purchasers that the system of streets then laid out, connecting it with the city across what Is now LeDroit park, would be maintained, The arbitrary action of tie pro- prietors in setting up its barrier of exclusive- hess, and the inconsiderate acquiescence on the Part ot the District authorities, have subjected these otherwise desirable building sites—that the fancied good of others might be subserved— to great depreciation in value. Each street south of the university is now converted into a cul de sac, aceessibie only trom 7th street by a narrow way, recently made passable for convenient transportation of material for the new reservoir. For nineteen years these prop- erty holders have uncomplainingly paid their taxes, patiently submitting, with almost noth- improvement for ‘The taxes pid on one of these lots for the period stated would more than cover the entire outiay there, if Pomeroy street be execpted. What action the Commissioners will take iu regard to this obstruction to the xrowth of the city northward at this point will be watehed with interest, for It will form the precedent at other points where its growth is similarly threatened by reckless street subdi- vision, In the District estimates of two or_three red an item of 875,000 for the extension of New Jersey avenue to, I think, its intersection with Vermont avente extended, presumably to afford direct commu- nication to the reservoir and the park trom the southeastern aud southwestern sertions of the city; but it was stricken out somewhere. The exiension of the former would effect a partial deliverance from the segregation complained ot, ee ae Smoke in the City Post Office. To the Editor of Tue EVENING STAR: Between 6 and 7 each evening we may ask for our mail at the carriers’ window. Itis sometimes important to get our letters at night rather than wait till 8 or 9 o'clock next morn- ing. Almost every evening you will find a pretty large crowd in the postoffice corridor anxiously waiting to get to the window. There are always @ goodly number of genteel lookin; ladies in the crowd, and it would seem as if the gentlemen (?) would treat them decenul without being driven todoso. But the fact Is aby: don’t and now, Mr. STaR, we look to you for help, and for a voice to utter our grievances. It’s enough to have to stand there ina crowd, even if we had good pure air to breathe. We saw fully 20 men filling the air with tobacco smoke in that corridor last pight; and oh, what awfully cheap cigars some of them must have had. ‘Judgiug from the foul stencn of them they must have n two foracent.
