A SDIendid Gift.

Andrew Carnegie has presented Bishop
Phelan of Pittsburg, with an accurate copy OF
the famous Madonna de Sisto," said to be
Raphaers happiest effort. The original is in
the Dresden gallery, and as the kings Of
Saxony have always steadily refused to permit
a single one of their art treasures to be duplI-
Gated. this copy is of very great value. Per-
mission to paint 1T was granted by the present
king as an extraordinary favor. Herr Schles-
ser, the Saxon court painter, succeeded in
pleasing the royal eye by fine portrait of his
majesty. In addition TO a pecuniary reward
he was allowed to ask any boon he would like
to have granted He asked leave to paint the
San Sisto Madonna" and after some demur
received the royal permission, and the picture
was painted. Andrew Carnegie saw it when in
Dresden and at once purchased il at a big
price. On Christmas eve one of Mr.. Carnegie's
employees brought a letter from the million
aire to Bishop Pheian, requesting his accept
ance of the painting ''for the Pitlsburg cathe-
dral." The document allowing the picture to
be sold and taken out of SaxOny was also sent
to the bishop. The painting is, of course. yet
i'll Germany, and bears the royal seal. The
bishop accepted the gift and Oh its arrival it
will be placed III st. Pauls cathedral with a
suitable inscription. 1t is expected in a few
weeks. 1.-The wonderful Madonna de San
Sisto," Ruskin calls it, was painted by
Raphael between 1917 and 1920. IL represents
the Virgin standing in a majestic attitude with
her child clasped to her bosom. 1t is said to
have been painted on a sudden inspiration an
without previous study.

All is quiet at Barnwell, SC, and no further

worried every night for the next week. Ripley
johnson and Mitchell Adams, the two Heffer-
nan murderers who were lynched, were buried
yesterday morning from the Methodist church
The funeral was largely attended by negroes,
but they were quiet and no threats were made.
The other six negroes have not been buried
yet, but their bodies lie out on potter's field.
The white citizens had the bodies brought to
town from the woods and had collins made for
their burial, but the negroes would not care
for the remains and have them inferred. and
the whites also shrank from that duty. Conse-
quently they have not been buried yet, and
will not be unless the negroes consent to put
the bodies in the collins. Several leading ne
groes of the town have been notified that if
any further trouble takes place they will be
held responsible. The negro men are too badly
frightened to make any attempt to seek re-
Venge.

Liberal to His Employees.

From the Glasgow Mail.
On the death of the elder Krupp one of the
first acts of his son and successor was to give
to the town of Essen the sum of els, 900 for
public improvements, which he followed by
another donation OF E50, 900 for the creation of
fund for the benefit of his sick, disabled or
infrm workmen. The interest in the welfare
of the employees which was shown in this and
similar ways has been very beneficial to the
firms interests. The Krupp gun works has the
pick of the labor market at the ordinary wages
and during the recent strikes in western Ger
many they were in no way affected. While
100, 600 workmen from the majority of tho large
establishments in the neighborhood were on
krupp's works never had to suspend operations
for an hour, though the total number Of per-
sons employed exceeds $4,000.
