a rious Publisher.

Something of the religious tone of the
Century magazine is undoubtedly due to
tho personal influence upon its columns
of the president of the publishing COM
pany, Roswell Smith. n man whose share in
making the Century what it is has not been
sufficiently appreciated. When Mr.. Smith
assumed nm enormous debt To get control
Of the magazine, he at tho same time
made Il large subscription to the Memorial
Presbyterian church. of which no was Il
devoted member. Friends shook their
heads, but both tho debt and subscription
were paid long ago, and now Mr.. Smith
lives in one of tho Willard palaces on Mad
ison avenue, which shows that magazine

a Silver Age

If a male exquisite has his calendar set
in a frame of FURNISHED silver, wrought
solidly into fantastic wreath-like effects,
and prominently displayed i'll his room, he
need never miss the day of the month.
II he has upon the back of his watch his
monogram set in silver and studded with
flashing gems, he need never be ignorant of
the time of day.
If he has his private flask of Angelica or
other dudish liquor covered with u solid
casing of silver wrought III a~rabesques, he
need never go thirsty.
If his cigar box is heavily mounted with
silver work and stands upon tho mantel in
a silver cradel, he can economizo by filling
it with five cent cigars.
If his comb and hair brush are backed
with solid silver decorated III high relief, he
has the best of excuse for personal neatness.
If his writing case CLEANS with the same
semi-precious metal, his correspondence
need not get i'll arrears.
If his favorito window plant is ported in
a silver vase, il need not wlther from neg
lect.
If his clothes brush is heavy with silver.
his valet may well wage upon dust an ona-
less warfare.
For all these belongings and many. many
others of silyery sheen are i'll the height of
fashion, II he who possesses them shines
in their reflected lustre as n man who knows
what il what. Ii is u silver age and we are
rapidly laying up trash for the melting not
when the fashion changes.

New Bonnets and Max

Not a Social Gathering of Note
During the Past Seven
Days. H
Chtldren's Party Given by Miss Mabel
LnLnme-Personal and General
Notes From Neighbors.

The advent of spring is welcomed by
but to others it liz known to mean simply
new spring bonnets and gowns, and new
spring attire seems materially to mean
calls, and so it seems that mi-ladies are oc-
cupying themselves, for the week has not
chronicled one soiree of particular note. 1t
lis true that the Hotel B%roadwater opened
Its doors and plunge again to the ever eager
public on Thursday. And many happy
swimmers were glad to try their luck and
skill once more. The plunge promises to
be the attraction of the coming season and
will probably be as popular az heretofore,
perhaps only sharing its attraction with the
picturesque little lake and the boat it has
afioat.
The children have INDUCED in the gale
ties of the week. Dainty cards were sent
out to the young friends of Miss Mabel
Lamme, niece of Mrs. Peter Larson, for
Wednesday evening. The young folks we're
welcomed by their little hostess and a
friend of hers with the greatest cordiality,
none of them fully realizing what a rare
treat of fun was in store for them. Mrs.
Larson's large house was entirely at the
disposal of the little guests, and a merry
tim they had. Numerous games and very
elaborate refreshments were enjoyed.
Among those present were Misses Adeline
Pierce, Fannie Child. Saide Dickens, Helen
Langhorne, Lottie Boos. Carrie Lamme.
Bee Shatfer; Messrs. Brent erosion, Buzz
Botkin, Albert Raleigh, Eddie Boos, Frank
Dahler, Woodman Fritz, Walter Knight
and Others.

is steadily increasing and already numbers
a majority of the wide awake stenographers
of the city.
A Congregational social was given on
Friday evening at tho house of Rev. Mr..
Kelsey. A number of church people and
their friends were present and a very en-
ioyabie evening spent in pleasant converse
ton, singing old reminiscent college songs
and some very nice refreshments prepared
by the ladies.
Little Miss Birdie Weisenhorn gave a
pleasant party OF Thursday afternoon, from
four to seven. The young folks enjoyed
numerous games and such amusements as
tying their luck in the fishing pond, etc.

A Clerical Theatrical Library.

Everybody knows that Manager A. M.
Palmer looks like a clergyman, with his
clean cut, intellectual face and gray side
whiskers. He talks like d clergyman in 60
ciety, with a total avoidance of theatrical
slang and shop talk, speaking earnestly and
using correct and well-chosen language.
His library might be a clergyman's. 1t is
in the big back room on the second floor of
his pretty house on Madison avenue. and
contains about 1000 books, selected for use
rather than show, and Uttered about in that
co~nfusiohdear to book lovers. There are
costly editions of Shakespeare-but these a

in a big fat volume which looks
altogether too comfortable upon the
shelf to be disturbed. Cibber and
Sheridan and Hutton and the
historians of the stage elbow each other
and hint of their owners keen interest in
things theatrical, but miscellaneous works,
such as any cultured gentleman would
prize, outnumber them far.

To the influence of Mr.. Smith are ascribed
the articles from time to time published in

Robinson, his pastor and friend, on church

The new dictionary which the company
is publishing is said to have cost $5OO,O 900
before a dollar came in return. Mr.. Smith
was asked n day how he expected to get
all the money back.

Especial Correspondence of The INDEPENDENT |
New York. April 8.-The spring academy
has only been open a few days, yet the
wall of the disappointed artist is heard in
the land. Thirteen hundred paintings
were submitted for judgment by the hang
ing committee. Only 400 were accepted.
The cutting down of the usual number of
works shown was largely owing to the fact
that SO many of the accepted paintings
are of heroic size. One is SO big that its
frame had to be knocked off and taken in
piecemeal to get the whole through the
ample doors of the academy.
OF course, among the 300 rejected were
May excellent canvases, and, as a matter
of fact, though not of course, a good many
weak ones are shown by senile acedemicans,
who have long since parted with what tai
eiil' theY ever possessed, bat have the IN
doubted right of exhibiting pictures, and
con the line'' at that.
lola wrote no queerer tale of the jury of
the Paris salon than could be written of an
academy hanging committee in New York:

physical exhaustion to render just Judgment

means to fill upon the wall and then stalk

the good pictures which won't fit on the
line and placing there of the bad ones

day of the public who do not understand
all of these little difficulties. 1t is comedy
and tragedy. Insanity Turks behind the ar
fist who cannot sell his pictures, like poor
Blakelock.
I have a friend, a capable artist, but not

information struggled out of committee
that his picture was well being hung on the
line. Before vanishing day. however,
when the pictures were all arranged, a be-

would have it, it was the exact size of my
friends and nc other. Encouragement was
impossible, The N. A. got the place: my
friend was skied in the corridor, to his an
speakable establishment and disgust. and
those who saw his picture there, or tried to
see it, said: THAT must have been an aw-
fully bad picture to get so poor a place."
Truly an artist has also his trials.
