Two Of the most celebrated artists the world
has ever known dwclt in the same city. One
delighted in dclncating beauty in all it's gra2cs
OF Tint, form, and motion. His portraits were
instinct with the charm Of physical yigor.
Tic graceful, l,alf-yoluptuous outline ol

ivately-b}ended tints. On Ills canvas the
homeliest faces had all almost irrc.
sistib]c charm. The other found pleasure only
in depicting weird and gloomy subjects. Above
ail did be excel i'll painting the portraits of the
diving. The agonizing dcath-throe, the ghastly
face and form, were all depicted with marvellous
fidelity. There existed between these artists
the most intense dislike At length this dis
like eliminated. The beauty-loying artist had
been cugaged in painting the portrait Of bcau-
tiful woman. Connoisseurs pronounced it the
most wonderful piece Of art that had
ever been produced. His hrothcr-artist was
Jealous of his fame and sought revenge. By

content to only dcadcn the brilliancy Of the
complexion anu eyes, cflacc the bloom from

check. Later, his strokes grew bo1dcr and
freer, and one morning tue artist awoke to find

tion he had embodied. The pallid Jacc and ex-
pressionless eyes he had attributed to lack OF
gcnulncness In his materials; but when tile out
lines were changed lie suspected the cause, and
Indignantly dismissed the keeper. What the

PREyENTIoNso OF HYDRoPHoBIA, 1.-The
head Of Wholesale drug-hous in Phil
.adelphia writes to the Ledger of that city
.calhpg attention to the use of the root
known as elecampane as preventive of
hydrophobia. The active medi cal princi-
pie in this root, it would appear from the
cases cited, neutralizeso the virus or poi
son which produces hydrophobia after a
person has been bitten. The writer
mentions the case of his nephew, then a
small boy, who, was badly bitten many
years ago. The remedy was administer
ed and the patient is now a hale, hearty
man. Again, two men were bitten by a
dog which few days after died of hy-
drophobia. Both men called on q ply
sician who prescribed the elecampane
root b,One of the men remarked, "Jhat
is an old wpman's remedy" and put him.
self under the care of another physician,
who cautefized the wound and gave him
medicine that salivated him. On the
| ninth day he was seized with d spasm
and died in agony. Ths. other man took
the elecampane and never suffered in the
slightest degree. The writer speaks. of a
number of other eases showing the, value
OF the root as a preventive. Whether IL
would avail after the manifestation of
the disease the writer cannot say. A

The declaration of war between Rus
STA and Turkey has sent thrill of appre-
hension through the occupants of many q
retired rectory and the modest homes Of
number of widows and maiden ladies' in
England. They have put, their thousand
pounds or two into "Russians," to get
six per cent. instead of three per cent,
and now await tremblingly the all too
probable announcement that Russia must
perforce, defer. payment on the interest of
her debts. Next to England, Holland is
more interested in this matter than any
country, and after her France. The con-
duct of Russia in meeting her engage
ments during the Crimean war inspired
confidence, and If she fails to pay now it
will be from actual inability Spain,
which is as familiar with every possible
device. for raising the wind as Sheridan
himself was, has frequently got advances
from the Rothschilds and similar firms by
assigning to them the revenues from Ger
tain sources for the next year or two, and
Russia still has this resource left;N but a
loan upon the London or Amsterdam
market would be little likely to meet
with response. credulous though lenders
be, so soon after the experience of Turk
ish and Egyptian defalcation. In point of
finance, the ccmbatants are pretty fairly

IMPoTENT MIscHIEF.- The New York
Express speaks of an atrocious combiua>
ton of avarice, sectionalism and dema-
goguism Which is going on in that city
to fire the hearts Of colored preachers in
the South by sending among them incen-
diary papers, filed to the muzzle with
attacks upon the Southern white people
and upon the national peace peace poll,
cy OF the president. A characteristic
feature of this combination is that what
is done is done in the name of religion.
1t is said there are 5000 colored preach
ers at the South, and subscriptions are
called for to send copies of The Witness,
owned and edited by naturalized citi-
zens, to this army of colored preachers,
the obvious purpose being to add fuel to
the long existing political race differ =
ences at the South. The purpose is q
detestable o ne, and the money getting
part of iG worthy the freedmen's bureau
and the corrupt carpet-baggers from
whom both races at the South have stf-
fered so terribly. After the experiences
which the colored people have had of
those who are engaged in this fresh en-
terprise of hypocrisy and greed, in the
| name of religion, it is to be hoped they
will have too much sense to be .deladed
bymen who only wish to use them for
their own selfish and base PURPOSES

One way to forecast the policy of
Germany during the Russo Turkish
war. is to watch the action of the
semi-indepencent Government OF Roa-
mania. That prineipality is under the
control of Germany, it depends upon
German support in any emergency
that may arise; and its present ruler,
Prince Charles, fer whom Bismarck
obtained the place and title OF Domni-
tor eleven years ago, is scion OF the
ruling German House of Hohenzollern,
Prince Charles yesterday sent mes
sage to the Roumanian Chambers,
which have convoked In extraordi-
nary session He says he has been un-
successful ia securing the recognition
of Roumania's neutrality; butthat his
Government will, in the meantime,
'prescrve an attitude Of reserve"
This is of course, in accordance with
the desire of Germany, which, for the
present, preserves similar attitude.

home was about three miles north sast of
Belair, Hartford county,, In 1925 or 1927
he advertised in The Bond of Union,
published at Belair, offering to pay cash
for all bones brought to him. Money
was scarce and bones were plenty in
those days, and they were carried to him
from the surrounding country in carts,
bags and baskets, women even carrying
them in their aprons. Many old citizens
remember seeing tbe enormous pile of
bones which soon accumulated. These
bones Booth burnt, pounded and applied
to his land. The neighbors all concluds
