To the Editor of ‘fax EveNING Star: Iam much pleased to learn from yesterday's Star that the suggestion of a Columbus memo- rial arch originated in Tax Stan and that it has since been urged so ably and with the adaition of noble details by Miss Johnston, The time has surely come when the project should take more practical 3 than that of a newspaper item, and I should be very glad <o assist in any general effort toward bringing the matter be- fore Congress for its action. Whatever be the fate of the fair and its date this at least may be secured by proper legislation promptly car- ried through that on the four hundredth anni- versary of the landing of Columbus a great arch, commemorating that event by every re- source of the sculptor’s art and representing the united tribute of all the Americ memory, might be dedicated in this the tal city of America’s leading nation. E' its completion required longer time it would, under wise direction, be a constant stimulus to high national ideals of art and to sentiments of the broadest patriotism. Neither Washing- ton itseif nor the favored nation to which this beautiful capital belongs can afford to neglect this singularly favorable opportunity for mak- ing an addition to the world’s artistic and his- toric monuments which shail be worthy of America’s greatnesa. y Paaxx Sewat.. 1331 L street, Jannary 21. ssa inl The Throne of Fame.

He Denies Several Charges That Were Made Against Him. The hearing of Capt. O’Shea’s motion to com- mit the Star, Freeman's Journal and Herald for contempt was up yesterday in London. Capt. O'Shea was present, faultlessly attired, wearing anew silk hat, new gloves, blue silk tie and carrying a gold-headed Malacca cane. It was remarked that he had more the appearance of ® maa who was going to be married than one striving to be divorced. O'Shea’s aifidavit was read denying absolutely the newspaper state- ments and especially the scandalous suggestion that he was complaisantly married. He avers that his suit for divorce is bona fide and before instituting the proceedings he had consulted his wife's relations—Mrs. Wood, Mrs. Steel, Lady Barnard Lennard, Mrs. Chambers and Gen. Sir Evelyn Wood—and obtained their sym- pathy and support. ‘To this Sir Charles Russell and Mr. Asquith, counsel for the defense, replied that O'Shea himself invited publicity by granting an inter- view to one of pers in question. O'Shea adds to his first idavit another denying he was shunned in the house of commons for con- niving at the liagon between Parnell and Mrs. O'Shea, The case was adjourned. For several days Capt. O'Shea has been in receipt of anonymous letters threatening his lifein the event of his continuing his suit against Mr. Parnell as coxeaponsess with Mrs. Katherine O'Shea. While nobody believes that Mr. Parnell or any of his responsible political heutenants is cognizant of the letters, it is re- &retted that they should have been written, since they cannot fail to be used to the disad- vantage of the home rule leader. oo A Ghostly Priest Joined Them. From the New York Commercial Advertiser. ‘The ghost of the Rev. T. Starr King married a couple atSan Francisco on Sunday night. The spirit of the once celebrated clergyman and lecturer did not appear in person, but was represented by @ spiritualist medium, who as- sured the lovers that they were as firmly tied together as if Mr. King had materialized and twisted the nuptial knot with his own hand. Marriage by proxy has hitherto been performed by representatives of the principals to the con- tract or by the representative of one of them. The San Francisco wedding is probably the first in which the officiating clergyman, and he a ghost, has been a proxy. There has been at least one “spectre bridegroom,” but never be- fore, so fur as we know, has a ghost projected itself into the flesh in order to make two lovers supremely bieseed. If such a proceeding should turn out to be illegal no sheriff would ever be able to reach the offending ghost with a writ or an officer. ——--—"—_+e0e______ Forgery to Marry a Girl of Fourteen A peculiar case has been before the municipal court of Chippewa Falls, Wis., for the past few days, James Peterman of Cadott being charged with a forgery on January 5. Peterman mar- ried the fourteen-year-oid daughter of Mra, Etta Raycroit, without the parent's consent. The girl being under age the jastice of the peace refused to perform the ceremony unless the mother’s written consent was obtained, He wrote a note of permission and told the couple to get the signature. They left the office and Peterman persuaded the girl to sign her mother’s name, Immediately after the cere- mony they went to the girl’s home and told of the marriage and lived there one week. When the father returned home and learned about the note he caused Peterman’s arrest ona charge of forgery. Peterman was ubly de- fended and numerous decisions were cited to grove that forgery was not committed as the locument was uot legal, not being attested to by witnesses as required by law, but the judge held him in 2560 bonds to the May term of the circuit court, in default of which he is in jail, sixdlaat ——— Cut in Two by the Cars.

There was a further cut in passenger rates of the Northwestern railroad yesterday. General Passenger Agent Kenyon of the Burlington and Northern at St. Paul received satisfactory evi- dence that a competing line was selling, through scalpers, tickets to New York at the rate of $41, second-ciass, This cuts the second- class rate to Chicago to #4, and Mr. Kenyon issued a notice that the second-class rate over his line to Chicago would be reduced. This reduction will also affect the rate to other points, Kenyon is determined at all hazard to make the rates quoted over his counters the same as those by scalpers. So far the St. Paul and Kansas City is the only road which has signified its intention of meeting the Bur- lington and Northern rates, but all the other Chicago lines are expected to give the requisite three days’ toda: Prince Alexander’s Future. From the London World. Prince Henry of Battenberg has been visiting his brother, Prince Alexander, at Gratz, in Sty- ria, ce he left England. Prince Alexander, who lives a quict, retired, domestic life at the pretty villa which he has rented, is now known only as Court Hartenau, It is quite understood that he wili shortly be appointed to a high post in the Austrian army, as he is a great favorite with the Emperor Francis Joseph, who, (like Count von Moltke), entertains a very high opinion of his military capacity, and considers that he would be a most valuable adherent in case of war. Itis usually forgotten that the Battenbergs are the first cousins of the ent emperor of Russia and the duchess of Edin- burgh, SS The Charm Didn’t Work.

Ris face and body were in s terrible condition, the former being completely covered with vores. I took him to the Mas- sena Sulphur Springs, but he did not improve any. 1 was then advised to try the CUTICURA REMEDIES, which I did. He took one and one-half bottles of CUTICUA RESOLVENT, when his skin was as smooth ascould be, and is today. I used the CUTICURA on his sores and the CULICURA SOAP in washing him, He is uow five years of age and all right. The other case was ® disease of the scalp, which waa cured by washing with the CUTICURA SOAP and rubbing in the CUTICURA, one bottle of CUTICUA RESOLVENT being used.

Both houses of the West Virginia legislatare met in joint assembly yesterday afternoon, at which session John Price, chairman of the joint committee to formulate rules to govern the joint session in the gubernatorial contest, made a report, which allows Judge Fleming and Gen, Goff to appear for themselves, if they so desire, and twelve hours is aliowed to mem- bers of the committee to discuss the report, time to be equally divided between the major~ ity and minority, the chairman of the commit- tee toclose. Other members of the legislature will have the right to discuss the question when any member of the committee who has the floor yields a portion of his time. It is under- stood that Gen. Goff will apy in his own be- half with his attorneys, but Judge, Flemin; will eave all to those who represent him ani have his case incharge. The contest will be begun at noon today, Pretty Near Turned a Handspring. An eastern man was walking along a Chicago street.
