ART NOTES.

The Sacramento School of Design closes
its fourth year on the 18th instant 1t
holds its annual reception and exhibition
on the evening of the 18th instant-invi-
tation only.
A monthly art newspaper, called the
Collector, published by Alfred Trumble, has
made its appearance. 1t is bright, inter
esting, ably edited. There is room for
such publication in this country. Mr..
Trumble's paper suggests in some respects
lie Guide de P.Amdteur of Paris.
The entire collection of his own etch-
ings and sketches by the etcher Lalanne
has been acquired by Frederick Keppel,
who will show them later in the winter
1t is said to contain many early and rare
prints by Whistler, Seymour Hadsn, and
other modern etchers, together with
number of ancient prints Of great value.
KeppePs gallery will open next month
with a little show of water colors by
American artists.
The Art Guild, which was recently
formed in New York, works in some ways
as an insurance of paintings and sculptures
produced by the members. Agents of ex-
hibitions who apply to the Secretary, who
agrees to furnish a certain number of
works provided a stated sum be deposited
as a guarantee that unsold pieces shall be
returned in good condition. Heretofore
there has been great irregularity in the
return of works and much damage done to
frames and canvases during shipment, for
which the artists could not obtain dam
ages.
A hitherto unknown painting by Leon
h. Al
gallery of the Pinakothek in Munich
Considering the very small number of
Leonardo's paintings, this discovery, if
genuine, is Of inestimable value. The
picture was bought not long ago for
TWENTY-FIVE marks at an auction in small
town in South Germany, and the buyer,
who little dreamed that he was the pos
SCISSOR of Leonardo, sold it at a good
profit to the Pinakothek, which has had it
well restored by A. Hauser. 1t represents
Mary with the infant Jesus in a room,
through the window of which one sees a
billy landscape. The Madonna, somewhat
life-size, is visible down to the knees. On
one side stands glass with flowers. The
picture is believed to be one of the earliest
works of the great master. Mary's head
is very like that in a famous drawing in
the PSlazzo degli Ufizii, which is believed
to be study for Leonardo's smaller pic
ture of the 'Annunciation" at the Louvre.
The drapery and coloring, and the draw
| ing Of the hands and flowers, remind one
wildly of the splendid large "Annuncia-
tom in the Palazzo degli Ufizii. Some
parts of the picture, especially the admir-
ably drawn child, seem unfinished, while
others, notably the landscape, are almost
perfect. 1t may be inferred from this that
Leonardo left this picture, like most OF
his paintings, unfinished, and that his fel-
low pupil, Lorenzo di Credi, finished it as
best he could.

class of non-church-goers As a result she
mas reached the age of Is with scarcely
the rudiments of religious instruction. She
hardly knows what the inside of church

requirements and tenets of the various
creeds. Moreover, though of generally
excellent disposition and department, she
is not above telling little fbs in order to
gain her ends. She had read so much
about the coming dedication of the new
Catholic University building that she was
determined to attend. At the door she
was asked for a card of admission.

FAMILIARITY WITH ACTORS.

Theatergoers are quite apt to speak of
actors whom they like in very familiar
way, and this is true particularly asregards
comedians and leading men. One very
rarely hears Charles r. Thorne, Jr., spoken
of by the people who were patrons of the
Union Square Theater in the old days, but
"Charleyn Thorne Is mentioned freely by
playgoers who never saw the owner of the
name off the stage. "Charlie" Bowser,
the comedian who is starring in "Cheek"
this season-he was also at the Union
Square Theater,, ten years ago-says that
this familiarity in the mention of an
actors name i, an index of his popularity.

ton House in Stamford, and as there were
a number of other stage people at the
house, the proprietor thought it would be
good stroke of business to induce them

KANSAS CHURCHES.

Caldwell News: The meetings at
the Presbyterian church closed with
thirty accessions during the revival.
Twenty-eight thousand dollars has
been spent on the Wichita Y. M. @. A.
building and it will soon be pushed
through to completion.
Gaylord Herald: A couple of preach
ers discussed bible doctrine on the street
attracting crowd which obstructSd the
sidewalk. It is said that they failed to
agree on single point, and the crowd
took sides and in some instances nearly
came to blows in the heat of the discus
sion. It looks as though there wasn't
much show for common plug sinner
when the learned doctors of divinity fail
to agree.
Manhattan Nationalist: It is GER
tainly an imposition upon minister to
ask him to convert himself into a talk
ing bulletin board for five minutes at
the beginning of every sermon. The
congregation does not appreciate the
matter either. 1t is our opinion that
only church notices proper should be
read from the pulpit, and as few of
them as possible. How long shall we
wait for such reform?
Leoti Standard: The new Christian
church, in the south part of the city,
was the scene Of large and pleasant
gathering, the occasion being basket
supper given by the ladies for the pur-
pose of raising money to assist in the
completion of the interior improvements
of the building. Leoti is great place
for this class of entertainments and
this was no exception to the rule, the
affair proving a great success both so.

Junction City Republican: Every
one speaking Of the way wheat looks
says that it looks better thaa it has for
the last fifteen or twenty Years. The
heavy rain of Saturday night and Sun
day will be of untold benefit to the

Junction City Republican: J. Cutter
and A. G. Raft received from w. II.
Winter, Princeton, Ill, seven head of
valuable horses. consisting of one full
blood stallion, Bernadotte End, and six
high grade Percheron mares. These
horses are all fine animals. Cutter and
Raft have now thirty brood mares and
will keep the stallion for their own use.
Wellington Press: G. w. Hill has q
curiosity in the shape of full blooded
Jersey calf IA months old which has
never become mother, and yet gives
six quarts of most excellent milk per

to disbelieve this story, but MI. Hill
himself assured us that it was true, and
as he is a man of veracity, we are bound
to believe it. We told the story to
Brother Simpson, good Methodist,
and he knew of q similar case in Elk

FEMALE FARMERS.

Win the coming young woman be a
Scattered all over the broad prairies
OF tne Northwest are hundreds Of self
tenant. true blue young heroines, living
ID smaiL, isolated cabins called shacks,
proving up claims, entering homesteads
and making money.
Il u lonesome, dreary business, this
nvmg alone on wild, unsettled prairie,
without lace or human form to well
come one or cheer ones solitude, but
tnere seem to be a good many young
women who have the grit to hang to
TINS solitary life long enough to prove
up claim at least.
-Four young ladies in Dakota last
year put their heads together and hit
upon an ingenious plan, whereby they
could each secure claim and yet all
live comfortably together in one house
and each be upon her own land. In
stead of building four shacks with one
room each, they constructed one shack
with four rooms, but SO nicely planned
that each room of the square building
was on different quarter section. Each
had her own bed in her own room and
in that way, each claimant at night
slept upon her own land.
Society ladies of the city will wonder,
not 80 much how these young lady SET
tiers get along without social privileges,
as how they dared live so far away from
the doctors. Why, bless you! they new
er thought of being sick. Doctors are
not half so much of a household neces-
sity as city people are in the habit of
thinking.
For all the ordinary ills of life, the
old-fashioned roots and herbs remedies
are more effective, and much safer in
results, than modern doctors pills and
potions. These latter are so radical in
their effects that, while they may bet
ter meet the modern desire for quick re-
suits, they frequently permanently in
jure the system, nature rebelling against
the unnatural methods employed.
It is always safest to follow natural
methods in treating disease. The old
time roots and herbs remedies, which
our good old log cabin grandmothers
knew so well how to prepare, were the
best remedies the world ever knew, be-
cause they were natures remedies.
The modern world needs them. In
Warmers Log Cabin Remedies, and es-
pecially such as Warmers Log Cabin
Sarsaparilla and Warmers Log Cabin

people of to-day have an opportunity to

rugged ancestors used with such splen-
did results.

department Of agriculture the past day
or two, and discussed the question OF
sorghum sugar making with the new
seer ,tary. Mr.. Parkinson, who has
been conducting experiments independ-
emit of the government for the past year,
still refuses to make known his secrets
of the process used in the Fort Scott and
Topeka mills, to the government author
tiles. It will be remembered that con.
troversy arose over the patents about q
year ago between the department of
agriculture and the proprietors of the
To,t Scott sugar works. Mr.. Parkin-
son and his chemist, Prof. Swenson.
to.k out patents for the improvements
discovered at the Fort Scott manufacto-
~, and Commissioner Coleman claimed
that they belonged to the government,
as the discoveries had been made dur
ing the period Of government expert
ments. The matter has not yet been
settled, but the Fort Scott sugar works
continue to use the patents as their
own, and the government has withdrawn
it's experiment. station from that point.
The government experiments are now
conducted at Conway Springs and
Douglass, Kansas. Mr.. Parkinson is
apparently we'll satisfied with the result
of the last years work, and he says the
scale of the operations at Fort Scott and
at Topeka will be greatly enlarged. He
says the future of the sugar industry in
Kansas promises wonders, and that it
means millions of dollars to the state.
Three large mills are to be constructed
at once in the southwestern part OF the
state on the line of the Rock Island road.
One will be at Meade Center, another at
Arkalon, where the railroad crosses the
Cimarron, and the third at Liberal on
the border of No Mans Land The sur
rounding country is particularly adapt
ed to the growth of the sorghum cane.
and it is believed that superior quality
may be developed. The character of the
season, whether wet or dry, makes no
material difference in the success Of the
cane crop; hence, if sugar manufactur-
ing proves as profitable in the south
western part of the state as it has at
Fort Scott and Topeka, the value of the
new industry in Western Kansas is
probably beyond estimation. The de-
partment of agriculture has $4,000 at
its disposal for experiments in sorghum
cane, and as there are now only two ex-
pertinent stations in Kansas, an effort
will be made to secure a portion of this
fund for the mills in the southwest.
The matter of spending some of the
money at Meade Center, Arkalon and
Liberal has been presented to the secre-
tary of agriculture, and it is expected
that each of these places will get at
least $4,000. This would leave $55, 900
to be divided between the two expert
ment stations already established in
southern Kansas at Douglass and Con.
way Springs.
