One Con Travel Over the World bv Wolkln
H10 Corridors ofllic Nntlonnl 4liieum.
WaMhtnfflon LfUfr to t'ttra Ohfrrr,)
I dropped into the National Museum yesterday.
It Is one of the finest In the world, aud In Its spe
cialties It surpasses those of L'uropc. Few people
have any Idea of Its extent. Its exhibits are num
bered by the tens of thousands, and the articles
which compose them will run Into the millions.
One can travel over the world by walking through
Us corridors, nnd hc can study many people here
almost as well as In their own countries. Here, for
Instance, Japanese llfo Is represented by figures of
Japs engaged In their various occupations. Hero
arc Japanese men and women of life size Just as
they look lu Japan, and there has of late been re
ceived n large collection of Japanese 'household
utensils and of tools of all kinds In common use In
Japan. Then there arc the products of the coun
try in art, and In tho porcelain collection the finest
of the Japanese ware is seen bcsldo that of Sevres
and of Worcester.
In this porcelain collection, Indeed, oiw may
study the evolution of pottery from tho rude pro
ductions of tho savage up to the finest art work
made by tho factories of tho French government,
and It Is so with nearly every branch of manufac
ture. Take, for instanco, such articles as knives and
swords, and you may find them here of all nations,
from the scalplng.knlfo of the Indian to the Dam.
ascus blade of the Mohammedan. Here are
knives mado by tho (Jltkan Indians of Alaska, ham.
inerrdontof cupper and ornamented with carved
handles representing human heads. Here is the
stone-knife of the Navajo chief, and here Is an
executioner's knife from Central Africa. It Is as
big as u sickle, but the sharp edge Is on the outer
Instead of the Inner curve. It Is said that tho
criminal's head Is fastened to a bent tree, and that
the executioner slices It off as tho tree Is allowed
to spring back Into shape.
The hat collection of the Museum embraces the
head-gear of all nations, aud there is u collection
here from Cores which contains some hats as big
as umbrellas. Fancy dresses of all kinds are dis
played In another exhibit, and you may study the
costumes of a dnr.cn nations from the silks and
satins hero shown. Home of tho Japanese cos
tumes were tho gifts to presidents, but the presi
dents of the United mates have no right to receive
gifts from foreign iiotentates, and such gifts are
turned over to the Museum. There is a feather
cloak at the entrance which was made for one of
the old kings of the Handwlch Islands and which
consumed nearly a century In Its construction. It
Is as big us a good-sized dolman aud Is made up of
countless red and yellow feathers of a quality so
dlmuult to procuro that three of the feathers cost a
dollar.
Just opposite this cloak the Grant relics shine
out of their cases In all their beauty, and within
arms' length of this royal cloak hangs the uniform
which the great General wore when he was com
manding the armies of the United mates, and a
yard or so on the other side are tne fur clothes of
an Esquimau. Speaking of tho Grant relics, the
collection of historical matter belonging to the
Museum constantly Increases, and It has many a
choice reminiscence and rare curio. Gobelin
tapestries hang upon Us walls, aud It has tho
mosaic lion which was exhibited at the Centennial.
This lion stoud In tho court of Tunis. It was sold
to the Kngllsh Consul-Geticral there by some Icon
oclastic Arabians, and waa given to the Museum
by this Constil-Geueral. This lion was originally
stolen from the temple of Astarte In Carthago. It
was made about tho time Christ was born, and it Is
nrobablv the oldest mosaic In this country.
'there Is on old tomb here of marble, a sar
cophagus.whlch probably once held the bones of
somo Homan nobleman, and tho collection of relics
of Washington's Day Is full of interest. More can
be learned of Washington from tho study of the
articles In the museum than from those of Mount
Vernon, und a luok at his raro old china and fine
furniture shnwsthat ho loved tho beautiful and the
fanciful, and his dress proclaims lilm to have been
somewhat of u dude. He drank his wine from
tho finest of cut glass. He ate his soup from the
bluu china which Is so hard to get now, and when
he rested his shapely limbs he dropped them Into
cushioned mshoguny.
The original Declaration of Independence Is also
here, unci there are a number of old Spanish docu
ments dating back. 400 years and more. Ono curi
ous autograph letter is that uf Itobert Fulton
speaking of Tils patent, and there la a letter from
John Itsndalph, of Itoanoke, to Madison. Hero
are autograph letters of nearly all the ''residents,
and there Is an autograph copy of Longfellow's
" I'xclslor.''
Another curiosity Is a case containing locks of
hair of all the Presidents, und from It you may
see that the color of u boy's head Is no sign as to
whether he will bo President or not. Jefferson
had red hair, und his portrults represent him as
banging It down over his forehead. Garfield's
hair was almost that of a tow head, and tho hair
preserved uf Georgo Washington Is Iron gray.
President Arthur hail dark hair, and Abraham
Lincoln's liulr wus dark brown.

Theatre In Kansas C'll).
Ifrow ( ."(. ok rod. JUipnlch.
Those cmluent tragcdlaus, Messrs. Booth and
Barrett, have had an oxpcrlenco of wild Western
vvaya aud push lu Kansas city which Is unique and
which they will not soon forget. The company
was booked to open lu the new Waedcr Grand
Opera-Housc last Monday. The house Is tho prop
erty of Col. Georgo W. Warder, tho poet of tho
Kaw, and real estalo millionaire. He stsrtcd to
build It Just slxtv-two dojs before the opening,
ami his honor and tho honor of all Kansas city
were slaked on the fact that the building, which
Is, or should be, llvo stories high, would be com
pleted in time.
Tho opening took placo on Tuesday night In
stead of Monday, und tho telegrams sent from
Kansas City Indlcuted thut tho opening was a grand
success, the only drawback being the coolness of
the auditorium, owing to a defect In the heating
apparatus.
I'. J. Toomey. the Bcenlo artist who Is painting
the scenery, came down from Kansas city yester
day and told Mr. Levy, of the Booth-Barrett com
pany, all about It. When Mr. Levy left Kansas
City u week ago tho walls were not up and not a
bltof plusterlug had been done; but Col. Warder
was sanguine, and declared that everything would
be all right. Mr. Toomev ssvs the walls aro still
not up, und Messrs. Booth and Barrett have been
playing since Tuesday night without u roof on the
theatre; and tho fresh breezes of the Kansas
prairies have toyed with the curls of Mi. Barrett
und the long ringlets of Mr. Booth, while It waved
the togas of tho supers and kissed the fair
shonlders of the Kansas city beuutlcB who braved
the elements lu full dress to see tho distinguished
actors.
At 0 o'clock Tuesday evening tho house was full
of scaffoldlug and tho ncw-lsld plaster was wet
and dripping. A force of 150 men nude the sesf.
folding disappear like snow In the sun, and Col.
Warder stood on tho edgoof tho stage roof and
superintended the lob. At 9 o'clock the scaffold
Ing was down and tho doors were thrown open.
Tho scenery was all ready, hut only one set could
be used, and tho entire play of "Othello" was
given vv Ith this one set. 'Ihe actors wanted to play
ill overcoats and sealskin sacks, but heavy woollens
were substituted and the w hole tragedy was given.
A couple of big stov es were placed where thelioxes
uught to be, and the audience went and warmed
up between the acts. Warmed apartments were
Pfovlded for the stars. Many of the ladies had
101110 out In full dress and sat in their wraps. The
thermometer In the house, owing to the cold
wave and the dampness, was nearly down to zero.
Wednesday afternoon " Julius Cn-sar" was given
with one scene, and another performance was
given last night under the shinlug 1110011 and the
blinking stars.
1 hc prosi'cnum plcco Is not up aud the top of the
curtain and the flies are hid by draplugs of blue
tissue oil paper. The boxes arc not lu and the
chairs In the parquet and dress circle are not In.
temporary chairs being used. There are four hall
coules altogether. There Is a temporary railing
around ono lu place of the from, but tho upper
galleries have uo railing at at all.
It Is expected that the few feet of wall yet In
tomplctcd will be put up and the roof put on by
to-night, but so far the week of tragedy In Kansas
City at tho Wurder Is without parallel In the an
nals of tho modern stage, Wednesday night in
order to nil contract for steam heat. Col. Warder
hired a lot of threshing-machines and attached
the boiler-pipe to the steam heating plpeaand
pumped steam into the roofless theatre. The
tragedians hod lu play In the house, because there
is a guarantee of 18,Chiu for the week. Enough
seats hav e been sold to cover It.

"Thercthey are!" "Is that jmi, John?" Ac A

Somewhat of a sensation has been creuted in the
West l'.tul lately by a dramatic episode In one of
our best. known families. Among those who have
made their homo lu Washington for tho past few
seasons Is a young married woman, whose great
beauty has already become a threadbare toplu of
com crsatlon. Having recently returned from her
summer trip, the young matron put tne finishing
touches to the toilet of her two little ones snd sent
them out for u constitutional with the nurse. Thoy
went to Lafayette Hquarc. While the nurse was
quietly seated on one of the benches chatting with
