this week. There are strsnge parallelisms
and afinities between the two representative

sentative, Joseph Arch, who well be remem-
bered as having made AN ''agitating' tour
of this country nine years ago. At the head
Of the American contingent, for, strange to

from the pen Of Comte (tho most dstin-
guished of French savants) review of
John Sartains book on ancient encaustic
pa hitting and the two antique examples,
the Sorrento Cleopatra and the Cortona
Muse.
The name Of Sartain and the engraver's
art are interchangeable terms. Mr.. Sartain
stands at the very head of his profession and
has been courle1 and honored by the
elite of the old world as has never before
been accorded to an American citizen Re
Gently baroueted by the King of Spain and
honorably mentioned by must of the Courts
of Europe, while merited honour yet it is
one OF which Sartain may be justly proud.

If Mr.. Bayard is not judged by barsher
rule than has been the custom with former
secretaries, then indeed hs must be eyre
giously at fault, It does not stop with
political attacks or rather censures, Of his
official acts, but writers of the Review taks
up his history as if he were the 'but to-day

but brief twelve month ago was the
cynosure of so many plans and Of such pris-

capacity is now left brief summary are !;
The range adventures of Mr.. Kelley, the
fantastic correspondence with the Austrian
Government the many discreditable ap-
poinlments made upon his recommendation,
and the conversion II the Consular Service
into clearing house for the liquidation, of
political debts, have brought reproach upon
upon the State Department. The extraor-

The Publicism of suicide.

1t has always been moor point both with
the public and in journalism as to the
morality of publishing statements OF criini-
nal incident,
The writer remembers, during tho Gar
field Hancock presidential campaign being
present in Plymouth Church upon certain
Sunday of that period, the attraction being
Que of Henry Ward Beecher's fiery politico
religious sermons. On that occasion how
ever tue great preacher occupied the intro
dnctofy Of his address with a scathing dia
tribe upon ths wiekedness of journalism in
filling up column after column Of reading
matter with nauseous description of crimi-
nal annals Mr. Beecher claimed that
civilized public was not interested in hearing
recount of the criminal phase Of its turpi-
tude The value of the argument was that
! society cannot be bettered by the publioa-
tion Of its heinous crimes, that a capital
crime being a consummated fact no remedial
| advantage can be gained to morality by its
consideration in public, that the repelient
| facts only tend to smirch, by familiarity with
| the incident, minds hitherto neither
cognzaut, nor, in an average sense ever
possible of becoming cognizlut of such dis
tressing incident He denied any truth in
the asserti IN made by the apologists of the
phase of journalism referred to that large
demand existed for it in the public mind
based on the claim of morbid appetite for
such literature. Mr. Beecher asserted that
it did not exist naturally in any degree to
the extent claimed and that what did exist
of that morbid wish was the artificial result
of unholy journalistic propagation The
Portland Oregonean commends to United
States lawmakers the example of Uruguay
ia its attempt to lessen suicide by enactment,
especially the provision making it penal
offence for newspaper to report the details
of case of self-murder.
The people themselves must be, in th'
main, the judge upon this question. II there
exist any collective opinion endowed will
auy degree Of persistence it will make tsel
known in the proper way in proper time AM
will be obeyed without question by th
press.

Zone readily understands ths advantages
of such method Of painting, which does
not scale OFF, which the sun does not change,
is guaranteed against worms and dampness,
which, in one word, is not affected by the
action Of time. These advantages one APP
precates in viewing the Cleopatra, all OF
whose colors, especially the tones, have been
SO perfectly preserved that they appear as
sort of indestruetible enamel
"This marvellous painting was found in
Hajriau's villa, near Tivoli, in the year 1918
tabout two honrs journey from R1me), by
an antiquary named Michali, who owned a
fine collection at Florence. After vicissi-
,tudes too long to narrate here, it az last
came into the possession Of the Baron de
Benneval, great amateur Of art and pro
prletor of villa at the Piano di Sorrento,
near Naples, and their travellers are cour-
teously admitted who desire to view this
remarkable picture.
cit Is thus that NJ. John SArtan, who had
copied the famous Muse at Cortona, was
attracted to Naples by the desire to examine
the more important encaustc picture of
Cleopatra, painted upon slate also, aud much
larger than its better known rival. This
gentleman, who is to-day oue of the most
eminent artists OF the United States, and
whose name is so we'll know ia EucJpe, was
so charmed wtll-his visit that he resolved to
dedicate to this inestimable art treasure q
monument worthy of it, and has prepared,
with this aim, a magnificent publication to

the unique gem owned by the Baron de Ben

What are the facts surrounding the Penny
Hill tragedy OF Tuesday last9 The ter
rife snow storm Of last Friday night bad SO
blockaded the road leading from the Phila.
Pike Westward, at Penny Hill, that vehi-
cular traffic was impossible on the public
thoroughfare and it was necessary 10 cross
fields at certain places in order TO reach
given points.
j. Wesley Handy was a dealer in calves
and he made daily trips to Edgemoor to
meet the early Philadelphia train. Handy
in common with the travelling public of his
locality, was compelled o leave the highway
and pass across two narrow fields belonging
to Isaac S.. Talley. The public without dis
crimination used the temporary road through
Taley's fields on Saturday, Sunday and
Monday, but on Monday night Talley inter
cepted Handy on his way through the field
and the following conversation is reported t'
have taken place :-Talley told Handy tina
he should not again cross the fiod-Hanb!
replied that he would not worry aud kill bis
horses by driving them into the impassabl
snow drifts on the main road--Talley swor
that he would kill him if he (Hanby) attemT
ted to cross his field-Hanby replied that HI
was compelled to go to the Edgemoor sta
tion the following morning and he would {
necessity pass through his fields. Thl

Tharn "a lILtla linnht nnw tIlat ItLe terrible


There ia little doubt nfw thatstle terrible
blizzard prevailing at the time, together with
the unusual condition of the roadway, the
results of continued extreme frost, were the
greatest factors in bringing about the horr-
Bile catastrophe.
Human effort was almost neutralzed in
the binding storm. The locomotive engineer
could not see ten yards ahead Of him. At
certain moments the wheels Of the engines
would not grip the rail and whirred power
lessly, while simultaneously high pressure
had to be applied in order to utilize any
chance grippe. Another moment the engines
would be rushing along at high speed
| Under such circumstances, while the sight
was blinded by circlng gusts Of snow, what
calculation could those in the train make?
In the midst of the sad pictures of bereave-
ment in our midst let us remember to deal
fairly with those, whome, it appears. were
but there unconscious contributors to the
tragedy.

side and still waited and thirsted for the life
blood of his cousin. Atlength Talley's op.
portunity came and the heat-brolsen wife
and the fatherless children Of J, Wesley |
Handy tell only too plainly Of the safety of
Talley accursed wrath.
Accounts differ as to who struck the first |
blow but this much is admitted that Talley
was armed with the weapon of death-that
Talley did lie in wait for nearly an hour for
his victim and that Talley did kill the man
that he swore he would kill.
1t will be argued when Isaac s. Talley
shall be put oi trial for his life that Handy
came armed with ashot gun prepared to fight
his way through Talley's fields. this de-
fense s set up at the tlial it will be addi-
tiohal proof that Talley had threatened to
kill Handy the night previous and Handy
simply came prepared to defend himself, aud
it is stated that Handy did not seize his gun
until he had been struck over the head and
shoulders with club in the hands of Talley.
Talloy now claims that he was willing that
Handy should enter his field at point
some distance removed from the place which
had been used for tie three preceding days,
but Talley knew that was an almost impos-
sible entrance because of the immense snow
drifts directly in front of this new entrance.
MIR. Charles Megginson states that the
entrance that Talley insisted that HaDby
should make was exceedingly difficult
aud even dangerous. 1t is here pertinent to
inquire what damage could have been done
Talleys field when as a matter of fact the
giound was both frozen and covered witt
snow.
Handy Lad as much right TO the use o
Talley IS property as highway as Talley o
any one has to use tie streets Of Whining
ton.
The common law, emphasized and sancti
lied by the use of centuries, states "ihat il
