Tho Sun Building Carlonded and
Festooned in Honor of its
Natal Day.
1 K('piiitel tor tlio ll.iltlnioie S in
The Sun Iron Building is decorated in
honor of the tilth th anniversary of the
founding of Tlie Sun. Tin: building had
been previously painted in three tints of
yellow drab, an entirely new shade, in
imitation of w bite terra cot ta. Tho high
est relievos were given the lightest color
except on the lower stories, where a!l llie
relief castings of the awning frame and
corner lamp were-cut with gold. The
new incandescent lamp at tin; corner.
with five large burners, the who.; giving
a light equal to 500 :ai.dle power, was lit
at night and shed a clear radiance over
the beautiful decorations, while the green
festoons and variegated natural llowcrs
harmonized perfectly with the scini-iieu-
trtil tint of the building.
The decorations themselves, placed un
der the directions of Enitnai I fc (Jtiai tley,
who also did the painting, are extremely
artistic. The most prominent position,
at the corner of Baltimore and South
streets, is given to a rounded
design symbolic of The f-uu and its
present anniversary. This is hung at tho
third lloor, and represents a golden sun
burst surrounding a shield of bluo
ground, upon which in gold letters is tho
date "May 17." From the two sides of
this shield are llouting ribbons of hilver,
with the inscriptions "1h:57" and "17"
in scarlot letters, marking red-letter day a
in the history of this journal. Long fea
toons of cedar and laurel evergreen aru
draped gracefully from the center of
each third-story windowjto the awning
bar belov,-forniing a canopy over the en
tire pavemetit on the two streets. From
the origin of each festoon at the third
floor, bunting United States flags are giv
en to the breeze, each of the twenty-ono
depending from a staff of crimson tipped
with gold, and "ornamented at the ball
with a white silk ribbon, while below
each staff hangs a wreath of evergreen.
In each of the windows of tlie second
floor is a large pot with a growing paliu,
palmetto or japonica plant, twenty-ono
being used in all. Beneath these and
depeuding over the windows und door
ways of the first lloor are baskets of
blooming petunias, nutmeg and ivy ger
aniums, verbenas, lobelias and trailing
vines.
Between each of the four awning posia
are garlands of evergreen, festooned with
wreaths of the same, within each of
which is a mat composed of lilies, Moie
chal Neil and pearl roses. In each loop
of tlie garlands at the curb, are three bas
kets of flowering shrubs, vines and moss
es, the center one being hung lower than
those on either side. Thee baskets aro
sixty in number, and at the corner they
are massed, the rod leading from the cor
ner post to the first floor cornice being
decorated with four of them. At the
corners of the fourth floor evergreen is
again looped over the third floor win
dows, and the highest cornice at the cor
ner of Bdtimore and South streets, largo
flags of the nation are draped in easy
folds.
The whole building presents the most
chaste and graceful appearance, and is a
worthy emblem of the day commemorut-
etl.
Samuel J. kasdall has just told a re
porter that the low duty on pig iron is
leting in so much of the foreign product
that the domestic industry suffers. This
indicates that Mr. P.andall is not going to
be less hostile to the schemes of the free
traders in the next Congress than he was
in the proceeding Congress. And that
makes the prospect of harmony for the
Democracy on thi3 question additionally
omnious is the fact, as mentioned by Mr,
Randall himself, that the protection
strength in the Democratic party in the
coming Confess will be fully as great as
it was in the last one. Globe Vera.
