Alvaysircady. UAS STOVE STORE, A 6 Market Squaia PROVIDENCE, R. I, SATURDAY, OCTOBER 10, 1891, WHAT DID JONES MEAN? AN IMPORTANT QUESTION FOR THE COURTS TO DECIDE. The Providence Art Club Claims a Be quest of 825,000, and the Supreme Court Will Decide Whether Its Claim 1s Well Founded-An Important Case. What did the late Albert J. Jones, who died in Florence, Italy, two years ago, mean when in his will he left #5OOO for some worthy art institution ? What did he mean by an art institution? Was it & museum of art or an institute where art is taught, with a museumn as an auxiliary ? This is the question which the Supreme Court is to decide. The matter has been in court ever since the death of the tes tator, but has never been satisfactorily settled, B&Bh will the late Albert J. Jones left $25,000 to be given some worthy art insti tute, The Providence Art Club laid elaim to the donation, and the Rhode Island School of Desitgu also insists that it has the best claim on it, The question was u&before the Supreme Court w—da{v. when Mr. Greeley appeared on behalf of the Art Club to press its claim and William Baker was there to s)mve to the court that the School of Desg: was the proper place for the Jones art bequest 1o go. .\'{r. Greeley argued that by the term art instit&w is meant a museum of art, where the®masterpieces of artists are on public exhibition ; this, he said, is knut what t‘h: Providence Art Club is, while the Rhode Island School of Design is only a school where drawing is tau.i’ht. Mr. Baker's argument was that there is a vast difference between an art insti tute and an art museum. The term school of design does not mean simply that deui’ning 1% taught there, but should be taken in its broader meaning, the inter pretation which artists give to rt, viz.,, an art institute where the mechanical and fine arts are taught and where there is also a museum of art, a displt?' of the work of artists, All the big art institutes in the world are just what the Rhode Island School of Design is. The majority of them are known as academies and schools of design, and yet nobody would deny that they are art institutes. He thought that the Rhode Island School of Design was just the kind of an art_insti tute that Mr. Jones intended to benelit when he left that $25,000 in trust, THE DEMOCRATS TALK.

Depew on Whitechapel, Within twenti; minutes from that {)luce ron come to the annual ]mrada in Hyde i'tu'k of all that is most splendid in rank, wealth, beauty and dress in the British Empire. Miserable as these people have been always, their misery is a thousand fold more intensified by pauper immigra tion. Great Britain has established no barrier, as we have, and imposed no rules whatever, It is the dumping ground for all Kurope for misery which must starve or go somewhere, 1t goes to London and competes there with a condition so much better than its own that in the wages it accepts, in the work it does, it is reducing the British workingmen and working women of the great cities to a dangerous point for British peace and prosperity, It 18 a lesson for us to take to oursclves, whether the barriers which we have al ready should mnot be increased, and whether notices should not be sent all over the world that “we have sympathy, we have humanity, but keep your paupers at home.” 1 traversed the Whitechapel district, It was a sight impossible to see anywhere else in the world., The streets were so crowded that it was almost impossible to wedge your wuf' through, Every few feet was some merchant, male or female, sel ling the cast-off clothes or house furniture which came to them after having been worn or used through a dozen d(‘il'enent grades before it reached Whitechapel, | saw rags held up there for sale that no where in Ameriea would find any place except in the ash barrel, and the ashman in picking it over would refuse to carry it home, Such poverty, such misery, such wretchedness, such a seething furnnce of ignorance and all the attendanis upon hopelessness, | never saw before and never expect to see again. 1 felt that this great city, with its magnificent palaces, with every evidence in part of it of the largest m-nfth, the greatest luxury, the most liberal expenditure, rested upon a voleano which un{y needed the foree of civilization to bring upon it acatastrophe which would shock the world.—American Economist, Rhode Isinand Business Meon, At the meeting of the Rhode Island Business Men's Association last evenin the guestions of discussion \Tm frei E‘ rate giwrimmatiunn and the failure of !he city to offer inducements to new inter rises.
