TOPICAL TALK.

j. DESVAREUX LARPENTEUR, the
young St. Paul artist who gained dis
tinction in Europe, will leave this week
for California to try his hand and brush
on the scenery of the Pacific coast. Mr..
LARpENTEUR is the youngest son of
the late E. n. LARPENTEUR, who came
to st. Paul in 1S49 and opened farm Oh
the old st. Anthony road, now known
as the "Kittson place." He left st.
Paul for Paris in 1868 to study under
WON. He entered the National School
of Fine Arts in Paris. and when he
left that school studied under VAN
MARcK and other specialists for animal
painting. He exhibited his works in
the Paris Salon from 1878 to 1856, when
he left the French capital to return
home on a visit to his friends in St.
Paul. Among those who own his paint
ings are The Duke of Freyes, DR..
EVANS, of Paris; Counts DE GoYGoN,
De BEAUMONT and De RAIZECoUNT,
Hon. WILLIAM GRAHAM, royal COM
missioner, and our present vice
president, Hon. LEVI P. Nor
TON. As an artist Mr.. LARPEN-
TEUR is an honest interpreter of
nature, a sincere searcher for truth in
his profession, and his labors have been
crowned with success. The French
Dictionary of Artists classes him among
the first in the category of ''animalists,"
and says that ''his color is true and
effect broad" The compliment is the
better appreciated when one comes to
know that animal painting contains all
the difficulties of figure painting and
the additional one of being obliged to
catch the movement and form of a
model never at rest, The sanimalists''
form distinct set in the artistic broth
erhoOd, aud owing to the extreme diff
Guilty of the work their number is quite
limited. Our st. Paul people will watch
Mr.. LARPENTEUR's future career with
special interest. for they feel confident
that in the years before him he will
make a name in art and literature that
our city will be justly proud to claim.

THE TRUE REMEDY.

EDWARD ATKINSON, after many years
of thoughtful study devoted to social
and industrial problems. has at length
reached the conclusion that the only
remedy for the numerous ills that af-
tiict society is to develop the personal
character and capacity of each and ev-
cry member of it. Upon the principle
that the stream cannot rise higher than
its source, it is useless to waste time in
the study of the forces which make for
abundance and wealth as long as we
neglect the primary source of all pros
perity.
1t is true that the mind of man is the
potent factor in material production.
and that character counts for more than
capital in getting living; and yet. in
connection with this proposition. we
find another field of Investigation which
has escaped the scientific spirit of this
generation. What relation does our
physical nature bear to our moral con-
duct? How far are our moral senses af-
fected or influenced by our physical
conditions? These are questions which
Iagitimately arise i'll the discussion of

On Ticket OfLeaye.

Charlie Mcmahon, bright little boot
black. twelve years of age, who was
locked UP on the serious charge of horse
stealing, was let out on parole by Chief
Clark yesterday afternoon, Solemnly
promising to return at the expiration Of
year and give al account of himself.
The little fellow was left by a party of
four high rollers from Minneapolis to
watch team in front of Washington
street palace of inieuity. Suddenly
conceiving the idea that the horses
should be watered, he turned them
around to drive to watering place.
Boy-like, he drove to the Broadway
square fountain, the most distant one
of which he knew. He had no sooner
started than the team was missed, when
the police and Allen II Co., the owners,
were notified that they had been stolen.
After some lively huStling by the police,
Officer Ross found the team at Broad
way and Mississippi street, but was
greatly surprised when he sized up the

HOTEL HOMELESS.

E. j. Sherry, of Boston, sat yesterday
afternoon in the Ryan disclosing the
details of a great wool-scouring mill he
is on his way to Montana to erect. Said
he, Il represent syndicate of heavy
capitalists who will erect the first WOODEN
mill in Montana. We have chosen Bill
ingS as our location, and will build that
town right up. By July we shall have
woOl-ScOuring mill in operation en-
ploying over 100 hands. The mill will
have capacity of 100000 pounds of
wool year, and Montana wool will be
used exclusively. The sheep in that
territory produce the finest wool on the
continent, and Montana will shortly
become the largest wooi-producing state
in the Union. By securing and COM
pressing the wool right there we will
save all the Shriukage which costs the
grower so much now. | estimate that
we shall save from cent to II cents a
pound to the grower. Oar mill will be
the second largest IN the country, and
we shall very shortly start manufacture
ing fine hannelS, but the securing mill
will be put in first, and as l said, will
be in operation by July -

An amusing joke was played on
doctor yesterday evening. One of the
most prominent physicians in the city
left his carriage and pair of horses
standing outside the Clifton about
o'clock. A man standing by asked two
of the bell-boys if they would like
ride. They asked if he owned the car
riage, were told that he did, and that if
they liked they could drive around for
half an hour. Accordingly, the two
lads jumped in and disappeared. In a
few minutes out came Mr.. Doctor and
asked where his horses were. A search
revealed nothing, and he fumed and
yelled ''police." While he was still
storming the two innocent causes of his
anger drove up and dismounted. The
doctor questioned them and then began
a search for the man who had told them
to take a drive. but Mr.. Man was not
to be found. and the irate disciple of

LITERARY LORE.

The May number of Current Literature is.
better. if such thing were possible, than its
predecessors. There is no compilation of
the day SO comprehensive, so intelligently
selected and SO generally interesting and USE
full as that which is known by this title.
There is great deal to learn in this world
and great deal that is not worth learning.
If we could but manage to skip the latter,
and swallow and digest only that which is
best for us, how wise we all would be. Such
philosophers however, are scarce; but Table
Talk is engaged in the very charitable bust
ness of trying to increase their number, and
if 1t can succeed in getting the world to swal-
low it's monthly contents as regularly as we
ourselves do, the question of its success in the
other direction can hardly be doubtful.
An admirably engraved portrait Of the ven
cradle historian, George Bancroft, is the
frontispiece of the May Book Buyer, and ac-
companying this is an interesting sketch of
Mr.. Bancroft's career. One little known fact
brought out is that he is the father, SO to
speak, of the Annapolis naval academy. Count
less readers of The Story of Margaret Kent
and of the authors other works will be glad
to learn something about Mrs. Kirk, her life,
her literary ideals, and the circumstances
under which her best-known look was
written. The lady's portrait is also given
and, with the full sketch, gives one good
idea of her character.

CULINARY MAXIMS.
Late fruit keeps well.

Late fruit keeps well.
Eating sets the head right.
He breaches we'll who lives well.
Stingy living is not frugality.
Keep the feast to feast day.
A good IN cal is worth hanging for.
His bread fell into the honey.
A young glutton maketh an old beg
gar.
Is there nothing between the fast and
the feast?
A hungry stomach seldom loathes
common victuals.
There is never enmity between the
cook and the butter.
A hungry man discovers more than
hundred lawyers.
When it rains macaroni there will be
a fine time for gluttons.
Three things kill man; a scorching
sun, supperS and cares.
One bird in the dish is better than a
hundred in the air.
They must hunger in frost who
spring-time have lost.
We must eat and drink though every
tree were gallows.
Consummate pleasure is not in the
costly flavor but in yourself.

And where these Independent proud?
The great, the wise,
The merry eyes;
And he that's bold,
Not yet grown old?
Oh others will stand in all their stead,
Willie they lie with TIL mnumbered dead,
Before that time shall come.
Who'll raise aloft the banner in glory to him
century to conner
Who'll praise George Washington with pen
and hymn
century to come?
Who'll heed the scenes that charm us now
AS time rolls on--as seasons go!
Ger Wonder grass grown grave who'll bend,
And sadly say. Here lies my friend?"

But we'll meet our fate,
But while we live
Our mite we'll give
In honor of him, the great. the brave.
Who broke the chain and freed the slave

SCHOOL SAVINGS BANKS.

The thrift and prosperity of the
French people is attributed in a great
measure to the frugal habits of the
masses, not so much in severe econom-
les as in the constant small savings.
One of the indications of this is found
in the school savings bank. The prac-
teal operation of this plan, as under
stood, is for the pupil at the beginning
of each week, or at specified time, to
deposit with the teacher any small sum
saved, the smallest coin being taken.
The pupil receives card, and when
the credits Oh it reach specified sum.
perhaps franc or quarter of dollar,
ne is given bank book, the money be-
ing deposited in a regu lar savings bank.
1t is stated that q, 33775 schools in France
have accumulations in this way amount
ing to $2.467, $50. 1t has been intro
duced in other European countries
also. In Belgium 4,700 schools have
on deposit S6s7,16 and $50 in
Liverpool have sl22.5OO. A French
teacher is trying to introduce the system
in this country, but it is making it's way
slowly, as the American does not easily
get down to the idea of accommodating
from small savings. 1t affords useful
training, and develops business habit
with the young that will prove of great
advantage in life. Some fifty or more
schools ID different parts Of the country
have established the savings system,
and already have an average of 81. 900 to
each school on deposit and earning
little, all saved from the pennies and
nickels of the children. 1t is stated
that one boy on Long Island. eleven
years old, has s43725 in his bank. The
system stimulates them to look for
chances to earn little sums, and evident
ly is good one to encourage.
