The followiag from the Connellsville Co.'S
rier will po-sibi nos be rad with the great
est amount 0f pleasure by those who felt
aggrieyed by the STRUCTURES the HERALD pass
ed upon the gallant Colonel Copeland on the
occasion OF his lectaring here last winter.
The HERALD took the Coils measure at the
time and sized him up right, as usual:
Colonel L. +. Copeland, the lecturer, who
has appeared before audiences in this and
surrounding counties, to their delight, as he
is both witty and eloquent, has come to
grief He was discovered in the room of
lady at the Logan House, Altoona, who had
registered as Mrs. Marian Rowley. Phila-
delphia" Mrs Rowley and the Colonel had
arrived at Altoona on thesame train. They
had excited the suspicious of the hotel at
taches by their actions, and so strong did
these suspicious become in the mind OF the
night clerk that he made visit TO the Col
onels room after he had retired, and found
it empty. Then with the night watchman
he proceeded to the room that had been as
signed the lady and demanded admittance
He was admitted after some delay and found
the lady in state of considerable agitation
and seemingly alone. The quick eye of the
clerk noticed that wardrobe in the room
had been moved out of position and on
looking behind it discovered the abashed
Colonel.
He explained his presence by saying that
the lady was sick. and that he had been
called 10 give her some medicine. As this
errand would not necessitate hiding behind
wardrobe the clerk did not recognize the
Colonel in his capacity as philanthropic
physician. and invited him to leave the
house. He delivered similar order to the
lady, and the pair betook themselves 10 the
Central Hotel. The next morning they
took the train for Tyrone. Colonel Cope

last time we remember seeing the dashing
Colonel was at the Sunday conven-

Sunday school classes the Word" His
audience on that occasion viii probably ap-

GenI. Grant is very favorable as far as
his present condition is concerned but as
cheerless as ever in reference to the
future. The latest examinations seem
to have conclusively proved that the
disease is a cancer and this must at no
distant time end his life. Should he
improve he will be taken to Saratoga
and thence to the CatskiIls.

Art.


The many friends OF Mr. Grant, in this city,
where he once had his studio and his home,
will read with interest the following from the
Boston Journal:
Mr.. @. r. Grant held last week an informal
exhibition of paintings and studies at bis
studio, No. "a School street, where he showed
some remarkably strong and beautiful work In
figure painting. Mr.. Grants absence during
his study abroad and his inclination to keep
out OF local exhibitions during the two or three
years since his return has prevented the gem
eral public from knowing OF the important
works which have been growing under his
hand. In the studio now are photographs of
three pictures, which are soon to be etched or
engraved, and of which little is known in this
immediate vicinity, but which are certainly
broad, individual, beautiful creations.
The latest work, which is just now complet-
ed, is full of beauty and power. 1t represents
charming young woman standing in the
foreground OF field, where the soft, brown,
fluffy grasses nod about her. She is dressed In
soft, dull red, the gown beiDg5 old-fashionsd
with round waist, short sleeves and plain full
skirt, and on her head she wears beWitchinK
bonnet of nameless color, from under which
the rich auburn hair comes ont In light and
SHADOW; the head IS turned up In a somewhat
plquant manner, which admirably suits the
twinkle OF the brown eyes and the dainty
curve of the lip. One hand has gathered up
the skirt and rests upon the hip, while tho other
hangs gracefully at the side. The entire fig
ure is charming in its grace and roundness,
and its expression is that of sweet younE
womanhood. The pose is admirable, and the
only one we think which would have fitted the
figure exactly. The landscape is quiet, bat far
reaching and poetic, and makes most appro-
PIRATE surrounding The flesh painting has
many excellent qualities; the face Is we'll
modelled, and the color, though quiet, is rich
and harmonious, while the drawing, modelling
and color Of the bare arms is exquisite This
Is remarkable work for so young q man, and
public view.
