Read what tho Staunton, Va, papers
say of Mr.. Corwin's artistic skill. "One
of America Most Gifted Artists"
Never before have our cultured and
artistic circles been more interested in
any event than the contest made this
week for the order to make the twelve
portraits to decorate the Court Rooms.
THE committee were determined to
secure the finest talent possible to do
the work; and rs a consequence artists
were here from New York, Washington.
Baltimore, Richmond, etc, with SAM
pies of their portrait painting in oil,
water colors, pastel and crayon. II is
needless to say among them were some
OF the leading portrait artists in the
country VINO showed III their portraits
great artistic skill.
The work was awarded to Mr.. Frank
j. Corwin, at $500 90. his work being
more life like and showing more strong
ly that true artists skill so rarely met
with. The finish of his portraits was
truly marvellous in softness and color
ing; showing. it would seem, to repre-
sent life itself.
"Alr. Corwin is an artist with won
derfully bright future, and one Virginia
is justly proud OF, as he has no supe-
riors in the South and few equals in
America.
1--WE are informed that he will return
to Europe the coming summer to con-
tinue his art Studies, and surely few
young artists in America today have n
brighter future"

md delivered the following:

| anu delivered the fOllOwlng:
"Resolved, That it be the sense
OF this conference that it act as %
unit in making the recommended
tions for Office, aud that each mem
her be entitled to one vote.n
The situation now was growing
very interesting, and around the
alive table the gentlemen sat with
various and conflicting opinions.
MIR. Meredith had not given assent
either at the former or at this
meeting, and le was silent still.
Mcssrs. Marshall, Wise and TYLER
were dubious, and there began 81
debate that eliminated in the in.
PRODUCTION of u novel and ques.
tiOnablc feature, of which none but
the "truly elite" had before had
thought. The point was raised
that these three gentlemen had
met with the delegation on the
22nd instant, and having partici-
pated in the movement (Which did
nothing), they were now in honor
bound to abide by the delibrratiun
and final action of the delegations.
At this beautiful and transcen,lent
.iuncture Mr. Meredith left the
room, while his equally impressed
brothers were compelled to stay
and lend their unwilling aid to ell.
dorsc the favored candidates.
Mir. Marshall arose and in his
own manly way nominated his can
didateS, but when the roll was call.
ed lie was found alone, voting for
his selections.
Mr. Gardner Tyler then impress
sively named the strong party
workers of his district who were
candidates for the places in Gues-
ton, but the same old vote, now
apparent, left him alone the sup
porter of his honest convictions.
Thus the course was run, and the
following endorsements were made:
Western Observation-Disclosures, A.
j. Montague, Of Danville. Mar
shall, MIR. Levi, of Bcrryville. Rev
enuc Collector, Ham Shcperd, of
Warrcnt0n.
Eastern District.-Attorney, +.
II. Lassitcr, of Petersburg. Mar.
shall, j. NJ. Judging. of Caroline.
Revenue Collector, William Ryan,
of Richmond.
In the consideration OF the reso-
luton of Mr.. Marshall regarding
the home rule idea Of each district
naming it's own officials, Messrs.
O'Fcrrall, Swanson, Hunton and
Jones opposed the motion, while
Mcssrs. Daniel, Tucker and Mar
shall were in favor of its adoption.
The endorsements are signed by
both of the Senators and nine of
the Representatives, Congressman
Meredith declining to he bound by
the action of the con ference.
The only other person endorsed
by the delegation was Colonel
Thomas Smith, of Warrenton, for
Judge of the Court of Appeals of
the District Of Columbia.

Abolishing London Fogs.

The London county council has turned
out to be remarkably active and enter
prising body, but when it is said to be
seriously proposing to take up the prob
lem of abolishing the fogs that have so
long given i'll repute to that city it
would seem that it is taking a tremend-
Gus contract upon its hands. For q
proposition to abolish the London fogs
sounds very much like interfering with
the order of nature, such as undertaking
to stop snowstorms, or, like General
Dyrenforth, attempting to shake rain
out of the sky. But when it is considered
that the horrible fogs Of London are of
comparatively modern date, that they
did not exist two centuries ago, and that
they are due to human agency, the un-
dertalring, though still large one, does
not seem unfeasible.
The character of these fogs, which OBJ
scure everything with an almost inky
blackness and often make MONDAY as
dark as midnight, is due to the clouds OF
unconsumed carbon poured out by thou.
sands of chimneys into humid, misty
atmosphere, where the smoke mixes it.
self with the natural fog in such a way
as to seem almost a solid. The only
thing required, therefore, to prevent the
fogs is to provide a different method OF
combustion.-Boston Herald.

Whimsical Children.

Children are supposed to be the most
whimsical creatures in the world, and
yet there have been grown men who were
quite rs much so as any child that ever
lived. The writer knows a little girl
who cannot go to sleep unless she has a
piece of rubber held between her thumb
and foretinger, which some persons con-
slider to be whimsical in the extreme, but
what have these to say of Haydn, one OF
the greatest of composers of music, who
could not put two notes together until
he had dressed himself in his best suit
and had his hair powdered, and who de.
clared that without certain diamond
ring, the gift of Frederick II of Prussia,
on his finger he could not begin to work,
since he could not summon single idea
into his head? Other composers have
been equally whimsical. -EIarper's Ba,
Ear
