An Artists Friends.


Have you friend in the world?
Well, you might as well have none at
all. Have your friends got any money;
are they rich? Well, they will not spend
dollar for You. warn you that you
will find it so. have been in this bust
ness long while. | have told all my
other patrons what | now tell you, and
they have all found my every word was
true" Thus spoke picture auctioneer
to an artist who was meditating an ex-
hibition to be followed by sale of the
pictures The two events followed one
another, and the prophets words did not
come quite true. At the sale there was
notable absence of the artists friends
OF the host of them only two or three
who were not among the rich ones
either came or bought anything. The
others stayed away, saying afterward
that they did not feel well or that they
saw that the artist got good notices and
was bound to do well-as he did, in spite
of them.
There is nothing extraordinary about
this situation. The probability is that
the personal friends of the artists know
them too well and like them too much
to be certain that their judgment is fair
and reliable when they come to exercise
1t in determining the market value of
their work. Once an artist has estab-
ished this value to be great his rich
friends are apt to hunt around and Sc
cure some of the pictures they could
have got cheaper when their presence
would have been grateful to the artist.
The poorer friends must then go without
his work unless they have some that he
gave away when he was younger and
less famous.-New York Sun.

waxed fat and tall. All along it gave

The Heavens In the North.

From the last days of May to the end
of July inthe northern part of this land
the sun shines day and night upon its
mountains, fords, rivers, lakes, forests,
valleys, towns, villages, hamlets, fields
and farms, and thus Sweden and Nor
way maybe called the land of the mid
night sun. During this period of con-
tinuous daylight the stars are never seen,
the moon appears pale and sheds no
light upon the earth. Summer is short,
giving just time enough for the wild
flowers to grew, to bloom and to fade
away, and barely time for the husband
man to collect his harvest, which, how
ever, Is sometimes nipped by q summer

The attempt to arrest and bring in the
wounded Indians, Two Sticks and
White-Faced Horse, who are wanted
for the killing of Royce and his three
companions at the Pine Ridge agency
beef camp, has failed. Deputy Marshal
Matheisen, who went out from the
agency to No Waters camp Friday, was
warned off. Colonel Burns of Dead
wood, attorney for Two Sticks, who
went along as an interpreter, had no
influence. The Indians said: "You
have two of Two Sticks party in Jail
at Deadwood. That is enough. We
will not surrender the wounded men,"
Indian Police Ordered Out.
Agent Brown then ordered out a
squad of Indian police, who, after being
fired upon, returned to the agency and
reported that they could not make the
arrest. Agent Brown is said to have
ordered Colonel Burns from the reserva-
ton. United States Marshal Fry is ex-
pected at Pine Ridge, and it is thought
that steps will be talked to bring in the
culprits No Waters band is not q
large one, but is very ugly. Nearly all
