The $12.00 Mandolin is extra fine. As littleas $3.00 will purchase a Violin or Guitar. Your _hali-dollar will buy a Music Box—a child’s toy, of course. The fine Swiss Boxes range much higher, yet are cheaper than ever before. The Symphonion—a _half- brother to the music box—costs less and plays a good many tunes. The Autoharp “captures the family” every time. We have planned liberally for its deserv- ed popularity. A good one is inexpensive. Cornets, Bugles, Harmonicas, Zithers, Flutes, Piccolos and Ac- cordions in profusion. Our dollar Music Roll is very popular. Sanders & Stayman, Leading Pianos, Organs and Music, Percy S.

WHAT IS BEING SAID —————— In an address at a conservative banquet in Bristol, Eng., last night, Sir Michael Hicks Beach, the chancellor of the ex- chequer, made an important suggestion of the probable next step to be taken by the British government in the Venezuelan con- troversy, namely, the ‘issuance of a state- ment by Lord Salisbury, which Sir Michael intimated might put a new face on affairs. ‘The chancellor warned his hearers against exagserating the gravity of the Venezuelan troubie, “although some persons,” he went on to say, “talk of the impossibility of war between the United States and Great Brit- vin because of the ties of Kinship between the two nations. Nothing is impossible which has already occurred, and if kinsmen unfortunately differ sometimes they become y bitter enemies.” But there was reas- nee, he said, in the fact that he did not believe the people on either side of the At- Jantic desired war. He thought that when the true statement, which Lord Salisbury had ably prepared in fispatches, was shortly published, the result would be happy, honorable and peaceful to both sides. Meanwhile, it seems impossible to induce except a few unofficial English public , to express any opinion whatever upon the controversy. Many inquiries have been addressed to leaders of both parties, and the of Lord Kimberley, late nunister of fairs, is typical of all the others rec “I am sorry,” he telegraphs, “that I can- not now say anything for publication on the subject. When Bayard Spoke. Mr. Bayard’s little speech in London Wed- nesday night was printed in full in all the papers, although delivered close on to mid- night, and was also approvingly referred to in editorial columns as “making for peace.” The scene at the banquet was an inter- esting one. Both Chairman Sir Francis Jeune and Sir Edwin Arnold, who spoke to a later toast, incidentally alluded to the relations between the two great English- speaking nations, but only incidentally, and the usual accompaniment of glass-clinking and match-striking continued until a quar- ter past 11, when, in response to a happy speech by Mr. Comyns Carr, who proposed “our friends across the sea,” the American ambassador rose. As he did so there was a perfect tumult of applause. The guests rose and shouted themselves hoarse, obviously eager to show their personal feeling for the man who, 80 one paper puts it, has tried to do so much to bring Great Britain and the United States mcre closely tcgetter. Mr. Bayard stood with bowed head until the applause had finished. “Gentlemen,” he said, slowly and deliberately, “tonight We stand on common ground. There is no sea between us.” This opening remark was greeted with renewed cheering and again the speaker had to stand silent, nervously playing with a piece of paper in his hand until silence again reigned. “I thank God,” he contin- ued, “there are some things’ that cannot be divided and that men must hold in com- mon.” With visible emotion he concluded = nee loves unite, wide space divides in vain. “And hands may clasp across the spreading main." “Gentlemen, I think the time is season- able to repeat those words.” When he sat down and when the applause had subsided, the “Old Folks at. Home” was sung. The President's Position Assailed. Congressman Grosvenor of Ohio assailed President Cleveland's interpretation of the Monroe doctrine at the reunion of the eleventh army corps in New York last night. When Mr. Grosvenor was intro- duced by Gen. De Cesnola, president of the associeticn, there was a general expect- ancy that he would discourse on the Presi- dent's Venezuclan message. The anticipa- tion was instantly realized. “It is a long time, in my judgment,” Mr. Gresvencr said, “before we shall be called upon to face another war. I don’t look soon for open hostilities. I think that either Congress or the British nation will Be stampeded—one or the other—before jong. “These threats of foreign wars are useful. They locate germs of wonderful patriotism. It’s cheap and safe to make them. It does not cost 2 great deal when the President's message is read. All you have to do is to swear by the message—although I don’t doubt that the President can be enlightened as to the true interpretation of the Monroe Goctrin At this point Lieut. W. Beidleman, ex- mayor of Easton, Pa., shouted excitedly: “Don't be so sure of that.’ “I am not quite so sure,” went on Con- gressman Grosvenor, “that the Monroe doc- trine is invelved in this Venezuelan matter. Suppose that Spain, after her fruitless and bootless task to subdue Cuba and being im- poverished’ financially, should sell Cuba to Engiand, I don't know th: the United States could interfere under the Monroe doctrin Canadian Invasion Favored. A Chicago dispatch eays: In the event of war with Great Britain Chicago will be safe. A no less distinguished military man than Major General Wesley Merritt, com- mending the department of the Missourl, in tomorrow's Times-Herald will say: ly impression is,” said Gen. Merritt, hat we would, I should hope and judge, take the Initiative and invade Canada at once, and make that country the seat of war, The immediate seizure of the Wel- land canal, to hold it or destroy it, would solve at once the problem of the defense of the lake ports. “There is nothing to fear from Canada. No invasion of our country could be under- taken there. We could overwhelm the country with a force outnumbering ten to ene anything England could collect or muster, and then not leave our seacoast unprovided with men to defend every pert.” The Feeling at Caracas. A dispatch to the New York World from Caracas, Venezuela, December 19, says: The enthusiasm excited here by the news of President Cleveland's renunciation of the Monroe doctrine, and his declaration against the attempted aggression of Great Britain upon Venezuela, has steadily in- creased. There was a gathering of 10,000 persons last night in front of the American legation, and eloquent speeches laudatory o@ the course taken by the American gov- ernment were made by Venezuclans. The United States minister made a reply. This afternoon another popular meeting was held, and forty fresh wreaths of flow- ers were placed upon the statue of Wash- ington. The Patriotic Society has cabled a mes- sage of thanks to President Cleveland. The British consulship here is held by a Venezuelan citizen named Boulton. The newspapers, voicing the popular feeling, have called upon him to resign his office. A guard has been set over his house for fear that they may be mobbed. The Ven zuelan government has purchased the ne‘ warship Fay, as an addition to her meager coast guard. Some overt individual act of hostillity toward Englishmen is feared. Will Raise 10,000 Men. “If war is declared,” said Richard Pow- ers, president of the National Seamen's Union, In Chicago yesterday, “I will apply for a commission as recruiting sergeant, and pledge my word to enlist ten thousand able-bodied men in the first thirty days, and the majority will be old sailors and ex- perienced seamen, the best in America.” . Gen. Howard's Views. Maj. Gen. O. O. Howard, in an interview, heartily indorses the position of President Cleveland on the Monroe doctrine. “The issue is squarely made,” he said, “and there must be either a fight or a back down. This country cannot back down, but I do not anticipate trouble. It would be terrible, the idea of these two nations going to war. We are Christians, and we both worship the same God, and war should not be; but, for all that, Cleveland has taken the right position, and there we should stand.” What Michael Davitt Says. Michael Davitt, M. P., founier of the Irish Land League and homeruler, arrived at San Francisco yesterday from Australia on the steamer Alameda. In an interview today Mr. Davitt said: : “Salisbury is a big bully. It is time some- thing was done to check him in his wild career. England has been going around the world for years bullying and imposing upon little countries. Now, if she is to be allowed to become more and more tyran- nical and unjust in the carrying out of this policy among the .epublics of the west- ern world it is absolutely necessary that some powerful nation here shall assume the task of doing police duty, so to speak, of standing up between the oppressed and the Would-be oppressor from abroad and say- ing, ‘Hands off.’ “It strikes me that the Monroe doctrine, carried out, places the United States in just the position that I have suggested It is necessary for some pewerful government to fill. I rejoice to see the country recoxs- nize her own power and dignity ani Ju ard I sm further pleared to hear that President, legislators and people are all so well in accord on the subject. “But there will be no war. If the Ameri- can government remains firm Salisbury will give way.” Action of Virgint Senate. A special dispatch to The Evening Star from Richmond, Va., sent yesterday, says: In the Virginia Senate today the resolu- tion passed in the house yesterday indors- ing and applauding President Cleveland’s message in regard to the Venezuelan ques- tion was adopted by a vote of 27 to 4. Cincinnati's Business Men Approve. The Cincinnati chamber of commerce yesterday, by unanimous vote, adopted resolutions commending the action of Pres- ident Cleveland in the Venezuelan matter. oo A MONUMENTAL EXPOSITION. A Suggestion as to a National Twen- tieth Century Celebration. To the Editor of The Evening Star: The light of your “Star” has reached ne in the form of a most suggestive article in the columns of one of your issues of last month, and while Igay no claim to ori-inal- tty in the thought which has been so in- geniously conceived by your correspondent ‘Geofra” in his article entitled “Washing- ton the Place,” I will venture, if I may, to elaborate his idea and give it a more prac- tical and practicable bearing than it now presents. Your correspondent suggests the “‘begin- ning of a new century with a great national exposition.” This is well! It might, how- ever, have been more suggestive to have added the word “monumental,” so disti guishing It from the ordinary expositions which have become so prevalent amongst us, and which, in passing, have left little or nothing historic in their path. A great national monumental exposition, then. What shall it be in detail? and how shall it be accomplished? The answer to these two questions I will proceed to give as briefly as 1 may, but will premise what I have to say with the suggestion of its emi- nent propriety and fitness to the time and the occasion. Of course, Washington is the place for such an exposition. No other would be appropriate to carry out what your correspondent has partially outlined. I shall follow, however, the general trend of his idea, while I shall endeavor to go more into detail than he has done. In the first place, he suggests that “in the year 1900 there should be held a national exposition at Washington, and that each state and territory be represented by a building somewhat after the plan of the Chicago exposition.” This is, in part, a good suggestion. We should, however, leave Chi- cago’s and every other exposition yet held out of view, while with a great national un- dertaking which is designed to stand for all time, in monumental grandeur, the expo- nent of republican form of government, our history to be handed down to coming cen- turies in enduring marble. To be brief, let each and every state appropriate, through its legislature, such an amount for the erec- tion of its state building at Washington as will be commensurate with the greatness of the occasion and the dignity and honor of the state to be represented, and to be ap- propriately represented, let each state fur- nish, as far as practicable, its own native material, each state to be the architect of its own building, and appointing its own custodian of its archives and exhibits. There can be no doubt but that there would spring up a generous rivalry between these sister states, with the resuit that all that art and science, detorative taste and state pride could suggest, would be brought to bear to create such a grouping of monu- ments as the world has never yet seen. These buildings should illustrate our history from the foundatiot of our government un- til the present time, and to that end the thirteen original states might be grouped to- gether, then the rest in the order in which they were admitted into the Union. These representative structures should contain everything historic and instructive pertain- ing to the state represented. Specimens of its natural products, its minerals, cereals, native growths of wood, together with all the products of its soil, while its walls might be adorned with paintings of its natural re- markable scenery and the portraits of the representative men who, from time to time, have figured in its history. Let it be remembered that this exposition is to be for all time, the beginning of a na~ tion’s history, “‘written in stone.” We shall then appreciate that the millions it will cost should be no bar to its full and satisfactory accomplishment, and the imputation of for- eign nations that “America has no history” will be forever wiped away. If found necessary, Congress might be asked to appropriate such an amount ai would cover one-third of the cost, thereby securing a national as well as :ndividual state interest in the exposition, ‘The city of Washington has, fortunately, an abundance of room, and in every re- spect adapted for such an exposition. Its “mall” would give ample accommodation for every state and territorial structure, and all within the very shadow of that monu- ment which commemorates for the ages to come the name and fame of him who was “first in war, first in peace, and first in the hearts of his countrymen, We have now more than four years for the accomplishment of this grand design, Let us greet the coming century with a spectacle such as the nations of the old world have never witnessed, and on our national day, the Fourth of July, in the year 1900, we will say to the old world, “Come, view the monuments of the new.” Much more might be said in detail, but I will close with the suggestion that no more erduring bond of union between these states, no surer safeguard against inter- necine strife or foreign invasion could be devised than that these monumental struc- tures should stand, sentinels as it were, around the Capitol of our nation.
