Concerning the two national conventions,
one OF merchant tailOrs and the other of Gus
tom cutters, to be held here next week, the
american Tailor and Gutter says:
Thirty years ago merchant tailors would as
soon have seriously considered attending
meeting in South Africa to pro-
test against Chinese cheap labor as
the holding OF national convention. They
would not have considered it possible to per-
suade dozen representatives in the whole
country to meet in tho interest Of the
trade; and if they could have done 30
they could not have been convinced that they
could meet Ill harmony any more than drops of
water and molten lead: and if tley could lave
been SO convinced no white-robed angel with a
golden trumpet would have been able TO make
them believe that a hundred tailors would ever
feast together to the accompaniment OF sweet
music, and all arrayed In evening dress.
Thirty years ago the custom cutters Of this
country would as soon have believed it posi-

THE STATUES OF ANTOCOLsKY.

Although the name Of Antocolsky is well
known in art circles, much ignorance existed
in respec. to the works of the great Russian
sculptor. Last year the artist applied for per-
mission to exhibit at the Champ de Mars, which
was accorded, but on fourteen pieces Of sculp-
ture being sent in the committee rejected sew

1t was generally understood at the time that
those in authority at the second salon had acted
not only discourteously to a foreigner, but in
considerably. as their show Of sculpture was
meager in the extreme.
To what extent they had defrauded the pub

while, so that. IL it should prove obnoxious, it
can be promptly exterminated by concerted
measures. Recently the Department of Agri-
culture has gone to some extent into the bust
ness of procuring insect parasites from abroad
to feed upon and thus destroy other bugs which

was the introduction of the "vedalia" bug

of many Objectionable creatures through acct
