As long as every Chicago man was
recently from somewhere else art cul'
ture languished, but in 1879 the line was
drawn. All who were there before the
great fire of 1871 were counted old set
tiers, and an academy of design, which
had started in 1865, was reorgantzed
and. on application Of Marshall Field
Murray Nelson and others, was incor'
porated as the Chicago Academy OF Fine
Arts In 1882 it became the Art lnsti'
tute of Chicago. Its four story and
brownstone front building, erected in
1885. was long considered the most per

WHY CHICAGO SMILES

She Is Repeating the Progress of Venice

Chicago has never called herself the
Paris of America or been even remotely
suspected of claiming to be a seaport
She has so far contented herself witt
having the hveliest board of trade an0
most extraordinary changes in prices OF
produce in the world, and incidentally
with the biggest fire, the quickest re
covery, the most rapid general growth
and the most phenomenal local politics
in all history.
But there is no telling what may hap
pen-in Chicago. The city now has
valid claim to some direct commerce
with Europe, and has made splendid
start toward becoming an art center
The local explanation Of the long delay
in art culture is not particularly hatter
ing. but it reads like the cold truth
Chicago people, say the apologists, have
heretofore not lived here-that is, no
exactly-they have just sort o campet
down, many Of them with vague idea o
going somewhere else as soon as they go

4 BRIGHT YOUNG MAN.

Hon. John l.. McLaurin, Attorney Gen
eral of South Carolina.
When Attorney General Y. j. Pope
of South Carolina, was elected an asso
ciate justice of the state supreme court
Hon. John L. McLaurin was made at
torney general in his stead. He was
but thirty one years Of age, and is prob
ably the youngest man in the United
States holding similar position. Mr.
McLaurin found the great Coosaw phos
phate case, involving the right TO mine IL
territory containing millions of dollars
worth of rich deposits, in an unfinished
condition. The case had to go to tn
supreme court Of the United States, an,
the youthful attorney general had tn
satisfaction of hearing the decision pro
nounced in favor of South Carolina.

Mr.. McLaurin inherits his precoclty.
His father was native OF Marlboro
county, S. c., and though he died IN the
service of the Confederacy in 1854 at the
age of thirty-fve he had achieved con-
siderable reputation as politician law
yer and orator In fact he was a mem
Der of the general assembly Of the state
at twenty-four and was the first honor
man when he graduated from college
few years before.
The present attorney general of South
Carolina was born in Red Bluff, Mari
boro county, where he lived until his
mother, having remarked in 1867, re-
moved to Englewood. n. j., few years
later. Johns education was received al
the primary schools near his birthplace
in Swarthmore college, near Philadel-
phia, and in the Carolina Military instl'
tute in Charlotte, n. c., where he grad
uated in 1880. He then took the law
course at the University of Virginia and
was admitted to the bar in 1882, begin
ming to practice in Lennettsville, wner'
! he has since lived.
Mr.. McLaurin, although a man OF tint
attainments, was noted particularly as
Jury lawyer, his great eloquence makinl
him particularly effective in this brancl
of his profession. He paid no attention
whatever to politics until the farmers

MARRIED IN TROUSERS,


Some months ago there came to this
city young man who claimed to be
20 years old and who sought work in
clearinghouse as a dishwasher. SAYS
Hutchinson (Kan.) correspondent of
the ST. Louis Chronicle He had a
very boyish appearance and was ex-
tremely shy. He refused to share his
room with any other man and was
looked upon as being queer 1t was
noticed that the young man, who
gave his name as Joe Richardson,
spent much of his time when he was
hot at work hanging around the depot
to watch the trains.
Last Friday when the train came in
from the east as usual Richardson was
at the platform watching the passen-
gers who got off. Among them were
two travelling statesmen from st. Louis.
Joe was noticed to give a great start
as they came from the train and to
shrink back in the shadow of the depot
until they had gone up town. He fol-
lowed them closely and saw them en-
ter the hotel, and then returned to the
house where he worked. After sup
per he disappeared.
sitting in the office of the hotel a boy
brought in note and asked for GER
tain name. One of the drummers
said he answered to that name, and
the boy gave him the note. He care
lessly opened it, but had no sooner
seen the writing than he became very
much excited and rushed out of the
place. His friend followed as rapidly
is possible. and reached the street in
time to see the drummer and Joe in
close embrace.
When his friend returned he had a
young man with him, and the first re-
mark made was request for the mys-
titled man to go and get a minister.
This was done, and in the hotel parlor
there occurred wedding which was
perhaps the strangest ever seen. What
seemed to be two men were joined by
the minister and became man and
wife. The parties would not give
their names, but the register now
shows that the drummer was George
Scott.
He told his friend that he and the
young lady had been engaged for some
time, but they had quarrel. Both

but she did not receive the letters for
several weeks afterward, and then she
did not know where to reach him, as
he said in his last letter that if she did
not answer he would leave the city.
She was anxious to see him again and
could only remember that he had told
her that he travelled in Kansas, and
during one of his conversations had
mentioned the name Hutchinson. She
came here on venture, and watched
for weeks in hopes that she would one
day be able to see him and tell him
that she still loved him. Her search
was successful, and there is probably
no happier couple in the country now
than Mr.. and Mrs Scott.

A Natura! Sphinx.

In Surrey county, n. c.. there is a
mountain whose outline displays
startling likeness to the Sphinx of
Egypt. 1t is in the northwestern part
of the state. just east of the Blue
Ridge range, and lies prone upon the
Piedmont Plains. At a distance of ten
miles the figure is the exact counter
part of that of gigantic lion. its body
at right angles to the precipitous
ridge, and with head reared aloft as if
in the act of rising. The head and
neck are of solid rock, several hundred
feet in height, the shoulders and
breast which support them being finely
rounded off by nature and seeming
half buried in the grass of the sur
rounding meadows. When looking at
the figure. although removed twenty
five miles distant from it, the thought
haunts one that it must be thing of
life and intelligence.

He doomed the little institution "away

failings," he said, "but I've known
many worse alma mater than she.

daughter of friend of mine in Port

At the present day they number, as
near as can be estimated, about the
same as when the knowledge of them
came to the civilized world; nor have
they increased their territory, but live
on the narrow strip of mountainous
coast, which is left bare during the
summer months by the retreat of the

SEEGER Bros. Extract teeth
without pain.


Here is true story of one life in the
great metropolis. The moral will be
eft to the imagination of the reader.
shall only tell the story briefly, for
the life was brief.
Three years ago young girl with a
beautiful face and form and little
talent, came from country town TO
study for the stage. She went to live
IN clearinghouse near upper Broad
way, where the brook of responsibility
and the river of vice meet.
Managers told her frankly that she
could not act, but her pretty face made
her acquaintances, not friends, and
through their influence she got place
IN the chorus at one of the theaters.
The salary was SO week. The glare
of the footlights and the sparkle of
wine turned her head. In two months
she was living in a richly furnished
fiat and her acquaintance were all
men about town. She left the chorus
and the stage because they would not
give her speaking part. She was not
strong enough to stand midnight wine
suppers and when she fell sick she was
turned out of the flat and sent to a
HOspllal.
In three months she left the hospital,
but her beauty was gone forever. For
six months she sang in a Bowery con-
cert hall. She was tottering on the
edge of the gutter, but she held on
until her voice failed. A year after
she made her debut in the Bowery hall
one of the men who had known her on
Broadway went Summing with party
of friends one night. He found her
jerking beer in Water steet dive. She
had reached the Whitechapel district;
there was only one more step, to the
river. Three months later there was
a brief paragraph in the papers about
a tloater found in the East river and
buried in the potter's field. That is
the story of one life in great city

Naught could betide me. Loves light would
