On the Framing of Pictures.

A picture may be well chosen, but its
framing may neutralize it's effect and rem
der it distracting object. Hence the
buyer care must not relax or her taste
and sense of the fitness of thing be ''otf
guard till she has selected her frame.
A frame should never be more striking
than the picture. 1t should accent the
picture, and yet in itself be unobstrusive.
1t should soften the lines of the wall
around the picture and focus the eye up
on it.
Oil paintings should be framed in gold,
silver, or bronze. A frame of white and
gold is best for water color, while engrav-
ings and etchings look best in frames of
natural wood, either polished or var
nished, but never gilded. Photographs
can be framed in natural wood or modest
fiat gilt or bronze frames, according to
the subject and the tone of the picture
Soft gray OF cream tinted mats are the
best for pictures in general, throwing the
picture back from the glass and softening
the effect, but tinted mats may occasional
ly be used. A dark blue mat, when the
picture is blue in tone, or d wine-colored,
or rarely silvered or gilded one, may be
very effective, but should only be used
cautiously The frame of an oil painting
should never be fiat, but always thicker at
the outer edge, to throw the picture back
and increase the perspective in which it is
best seen, and harmonic it with the walls.
Sometimes an oil is of modest coloring
and low Tone and is most effectively franz
ed in dark crimson OF dull blue velvet the
pile of the velvet softening the picture yet
imparting a luminous and rich effect,
which the glitter of a golden frame almost
wholly absorbs to itself
Water-colors are often harmoniously
framed in tints which carry out the deli
cate prevailing color in themselves, especi
ally in landscapes and marines. The mat
can often be the palest tint of cream, pink,
buff, atmospheric gray, or sea green; while
the frame itself may repeat the tint, with
delicate lines of gold, or be made of simple
white and gilt moulding
The gilded frame is delusive, often be-
ing nothing but the cheapest imitation in
plaster of Paris thinly gilt. This soon
drops to pieces. In good gilded mould
ing there are two kinds worth buying.
The French is costly and has two layers of
gold leaf and coating of lacquer varnish.
This will last lifetime. The German
moulding has single coat of gold-leaf,
and then the varnish. 1t is less costly,
and will last many years. Harper Ba-

FREIGHTs. The Freight Circular of Brown
4 Co., reports for the week ending March 12:
The number of unengaged vessels here and
in neighboring ports continues SMALL but,
unfortunately, the demand is not sufficiently
urgent to promote an upward inclination of
rates, which, it is needless to say, are eX-
trenely low and, as a rule, unremunerative
to owners. There are Yet no indications
of a revival of Petroleum freights, and the
previous extreme low rates for both barrels
and cases are barely supported-1s Cd Is
for Refined in barrels being current quota
tions for large carriers to the United King
dom and Continent, 20 cents for cases to
Hong Kong, u to Japan and about II to Cal
cutta For long voyage general cargo ton
mage the enquiry is likewise moderate, the
herthS being momentarily we'll covered and
charterers therefore disposed to await an
increased tonnage supply. Meanwhile, rates
for Australia, New Zealand South Africa,
the w est Coast, etc, are nominally steady.
Deal freghts from the Provinces for Europe
are beginning to pick up little and current
rates from st. John, \. B., to West Coast Eng
land are 4Os by sail and 41s'd n 42s6d by steam.
Pitch Pine Timber freights from the Gulf to
Europe by sail remain dull and barely steady
i'll anticipation of increased offerings of steam
tonnage i'll lieu of better business. The lat
est charters by regular shippers have been
on basis of G2s Cd a 95s for sawn to the
nited Kingdoms though it is understood
that one or two vessels have been fixed al
slightly higher figures. For River Plate there
has been rather more enquiry this week, both
for general cargo and Lumber, and suitable
vessels being scarce, previous rates have been
supported. Brazil freightS are also steady
the weeks business including vessel from
Saguenay to Rio de Janeiro with Spruce
Lumber at $11-the first Lumber charter of
the seaso from the St. Law ence. West
Coast freights are quiet, the principal fixture
of the week having been steamer for Chilian
ports. Business in West India and other
short foreign, as we'll coastwse, freights
has been restricted during the week by a
scarcity of tonnage. and rates show little or
no change in any direction. Charters: Ship

Nine Of Them Shot Down In
Spanish Prison.

a cablegram from Madrid, Spain,
says: During the past year several out
breaks among the convicts have occurred
In the prisons in tho various parts Of the
country.
Wednesday the most serious Of all the
series occurred in the prison at Tarrago-
ma and nine Of the convicts were killed
and then the convicts have been dissatis-
fed with their treatment for some time
and formed plan for general Jail de-
livery. The ordinary convicts in the
Spanish prisons are allowed considera-
Bile freedom within the walls and this
practice allowed them in this case to
carry out their plan. Shortly after the
prisoners were released from their cells
"Wednesday morning they mutinied. At
a signal from their leader they sprang
upon the wardens and the latter,
taken completely by surprise, were
soon overpowcrei. The convicts
soon had possession of the prison, with
the exception Of the quarters occupied by
the governor. Before they could secure
their freedom the governor sent an ur-
gent appeal to the military authorities.
who promptly responded by sending de-
tachment OF troops to the scene. When
the soldiers arrived they found "a majority
of the convicts assembled in the court
yard. The commander of troops called
upon the prisoners to return to their cells.
but he was greeted with oaths and deris-
i've yells. Again he ordered them 10 90
back. The convicts, who had armed
themselves with oil manner of things that
could be used as weapons, again refused
to obey, and in body advanced upon
the soldiers. The rifles of the soldiers
we're loaded with ball cartridges, and
as the convicts moved toward them
orders were rapidly given for them
to fire. The order was obeyed, but
before the smoke had cleared away the
convicts were upon the soldiers and a
desperate hand to hand fight followed.
The convicts sought to wrest the weap-
ons from the soldiers, but were not sue
cessful. Acting under orders from their
commander some of the soldiers retreat
ed from the struggling, yelling convicts
ard reloaded their weapons. Then.
awaiting an opportunity when there was
no danger Of hitting q comrade, they
would fire upon the mutineers. A per
feet pandemonium reigned for time,
but finally most of the convicts were
overpowered and driven, still shouting
and cursiDg, back to their cells. Nine
Of the mutineers had been shot dead and
sixteen others seriously wounded. The
affair has caused great excitement.

When asked the other day by a S,

When asked the other day by a Salt
Lake City reporter as to the origin of the
subriqueo Lucky" E. ]. Baldwin, the
San Francisco millionaire, explained that
it was given him when he made $5,000,.
600 out of the Ophir mine deal. He had
the entire California Bank crowd after
him, and it was no small victory to beat
such men as Sharon and Ralston, who
represented $3.50, 00O,O O0
1t was Lucky Baldwin who had So, 000,-
600 in the bank at one time, and who
was largely responsible for the failure of
the California Bank at another time.
After getting control of the Ophir mine
he ran the stock up to 1886 share, and
by making another mine of the Mexican
he forced its shares to $50, making the
consolidated value of both mines over
| $500 a share. He cleared on this trans
action S5, 900, 900. One day he bought
81 500, 900 worth of stock. .sOne hun
dred thousand dollars was no more in
those times than S. is now" he said,
glowing with faint trace of the old en-
thusiasm. ''We got up games Of poker
and lost $40, 900 at single sitting, and
went out in the street the next day to
even up.
"There is great deal that might be
written of the men of those times that
would read stranger than fiction, but the
best of it cannot be made public untilthe
men who figured in it are dead. We
would stand on the street and take mems
word" he continued, ssfor $500, 900 and
put down the figures on our shirt sleeves
to keep track OF it. When the California
Bank broke 1t owed from twelve to four
teen millions. 1t had plenty of real
estate, but no ready money. l took
III, 100, 600 OF its stock to start it I'D
again, and the stock is now worth 5000
share. The restoration of this bank, with
VIA 900, 900 liabilities, was feat never
known in the history Of the world.
"To illustrate how they were irving to
crowd me, Rallston notified my broker
that he wanted $500, 900 margin by 3
O'Clock. At that hour an express wagon
backed up tc his Office with $500, 600 in
$50 pieces"
Mr.. Baldwin, besides owning the 600.
room hotel, which bears his name. in
San Francisco, and which cost So, 400. |
100, owns so, 900 acres in Los Angeles
County. He has expended half mil.
lion building irrigating bitches 10 reclaim
It, and those persons who have visited
his orange groves will remember how
they would drive all day in the beautiful
shaded avenues without getting off Bald
WINS land. He also has 5000 acres in
San Bernardino and Is, 900 acres in other
parts of California.

Are Animals Conscious Of Wrong !!

The London Spectator raises an inter-
esting question when it asks whether
there is not some ground for supposing
that, apart from questions Of our own
convenience, there are not some desperate
~ wicked animals which are not only
wicked par Sc, but quite conscious that
they are doing actions which place them
outside the pale both of human and an
imal consideration Men are apt, as q
rule, to consider animals in the bulk
to say with the schoolboy that ssthe
horse is noble ANIMAL" and let it go
at that. But anyone who has lived much
with horses or with dogs knows that the
variety of disposition among them is as
great as among men, that there are
horses and dogs which, judged IN rela-
ton to the majority of their kind, are
criminals, and deserve to be treated like
criminals. That is to say. they do wrong
not because it is their instinct or be-
cause they know no better--as tigers
prey on human life-but in contfadic-
ton to their own moral sense. The con-
seriousness Of guilt is very common
trait in all domesticated animals. The
Spectator rightly says that ANIMALS have
the power of self-control. Any we'll
trained dog or horse will give you con-
spicuo1s illustration of the truth of this
theory; and even cats and birds, which
some people place on level with dogs
and horses, although the evidences is
against this conclusion, have shown
themselves to be By no means indifferent
to ethical considerations. Many wild
animals, too, like elephants, differ NOR
ally in no small degree. Providence
Journal.
