lions studio, neither studied attitude nor
cold lime,light hai bleizes her in the least.
Her skin is pinkish instead of white, her
eyes are outlined in black. her lips are
brightly reddened, and in short she makes
not the slightest sacrifice to art. How
ever, her otlense in this respect carries its
own punishment. She does not look
nearly so we'll as in conventional attire.
She is not Galatea, from the hand of q
sculptor, but 3 woman scared out OF bed by
midnight burglar. Her white wig looks
ike neither stone nor hair, but is an IN.
fitting night cap. Her drapery is not inn
movable stone IN shapely carving, but
very commonplace nightgown. This idea
IS all the more forcibly suggested after the
statute is tH-ned into woman, for here
she discards the white wig and appears in
her own brown hair.
Gebhardt is suffering grievance from the
newspapers, as usual. So is the Rev. DR..
John Z. Newman, famous of yore as
Grants Chaplain
in Washington, and now pastor OF The
Church of the Diciples. He was reported
as saying. in q recent sermon, II do not
know that ought to be surprised at any
thing Jew does, especially Jew who has
become an ATHEIST" This brought him
under heavy fire from Jewish rabbis, and
he wrote letter saying that the reporter
had omitted q wOrd-that the sentence
ought to have read. "I do not know that
ought to be surprised at anything such
Jew does, especially Jew who has become
an ATHEIST" But the reporter says, 81
took the words in shorthand, and didn't
omit single one. Newman is a slow
speaker. ;md there is no difficulty in get
ting all ne says, il ore wants to. More
over, be .orms his utterauces with labo-
riodS care. Just look at the sentence in
question, and see il you think il had q
such in il rs spoken"
DIR. New man Left the Methodists
last year, to escape from the itenerant sys-
TEN. He believed thst in q settled pastor
ate, he could gather and retain a large con-
gregation. The Rev. DR.. HepgOrth had
retired from the unproSperOus church of
the Disciples, and q successor had failed 70
bring about any improvement. The church
editjCe was spacious and in a fashionable
location. AL that il lacked was people to
sit in it Newman had national reputa-
tiOn, and some wealthy, warm friends, in
Guiding General Grant. He turned Congre-
gatiOpalist, got help to adjust the finances
Of the church, and has already achieved the
success at which he aimed. | found the
house crowded last Sunday. Parson New =
man is tall, straight, and square about the
shoulders. His head has the appearance
OF being the lightest part OF him, so high
and free does he hold it. His hair is all
right in front, but on the crown there is u
bald streak croSswise, rs though the back
part had got loose and slid down behind,
letting
The Locks Hang Below His Collar.
His face is remarkable for benigaity
whiskers. \ palr of eyeglasses
drop of his nose frequently, and he
seems bored by the physical exertiOn OF re-
placing them. lie is not ungainly, though
six feet tall. His tone in prayer is easy
and confident. He does not ask for much,
but is ready TO impart information alott.
In preaching he uses no manuscript. His
English is correct and in the main fluent,
but he has no spOntaneity. He prefers a
new fashioned pronunciation 10 an old
style, and big word to a little one. His
gestures are never violent or contortiye
enough to wrinkle his coat. But on this
occasion he interested his congregation.
Sleepiness was rare. General Grant had
more than his share Of it. lie sat in what
looked like dOze, though il may have been
meditatiye listening, ana he nodded several
times, though possibly this was in token
of assent. Doubtless
Grant il n Bigger Man Than His Pastor,
but he is not 20 impressive 10 the view.
Newman could not 20 about the streets
