cRAYoN PORTRAITS.

O0e OF tue mysteries OF tne SCI
ence Of high art. is the wonderful
effect that can be produced by M
artistic combination OF the numerous
shades Of white and black, when
guided and placed by the eye and
hand OF genius. The above senti.
ment suggested itself tn our mind
after viewing some life-like cr.yons
Of well-kpowa citizens, drawn BY
the talented artist, Ar. A. L. viii.
lialns. who is at present located in
Covington. His zine work and life
like portraits are admired BY all.
For brilliancy Of high lights, depth,
with transparency Of shadows.
neshlike delicacy Of stippling, and
breadth of handling, few equal and
none can surpass hmm. Mr.. Will
liams belongs strictly to the i'm
pressi0nist school. and consequently
executes his work in broad masses
of light and shade, with just sufiici-
ent detail tO elaborate it. without
giving stiffness or harshness to the
lines His work. therefore, while
bearing close inspection, rs to stip-
ping and execution, has greater
stereoscopic and atmospheric effect
when viewed at the proper dis
lance. Another feature Of this
artists work is the peculiarly and
originality Of the backgrounds. In
every instance he utilities to the
best possible advantage the many
tones Of which the colors black and
white are capable, to relieve the
different poses and lighting Of his
subjects, and while they are strict
" aerial, they are made accessory
to and not part Of the portrait, as
it were. The finished crayons, as
many of our citizens can testify,
are wonderfully natural and true to
life, the subject looking (not glar-
ing) at you with the natural grace
and tranquil expression Of . living
being, with none Of the rigidity Of
an awkward pose, peculiar to the
works of some artists. With fine
specimen Of the work Of Mr.. Will
liams before US, We can heartily
commend him to the community,
and rs his stay viii not be long, we
would suggest that you give him an
opportunity to catch your shadow.

FAGAN TAKESTHE ARMORY
Hoboken's Mayor Will Turn 1t
Over to School and Free
Library Purposes.

Mayor Pagan OF Hoboken was at his
Office bright and early this morning,
full to the brim with business After
ters, he order Chief Donovan to take pos
session OF the Armory in the name of
the city. The armory is Nlocated in the
upper part of the City Hall. The dis
bandment of the Hoboken Companies OF
the Fourth Regiment left the armory
vacant. Chief Donovan detailed Officer
John Murphy to the Armory. and he
there now stands guard. May
or Pagan will urge the Common
Council to give to the Free Library trus-
tees part of the Armory for the Free
Library. The Trustees have been anxious
to secure a new building, but in view or
the economy of Mayor Pagan it is thought
they will be satisfied to take this.
THE MAYORS RECOMMENDATIONS.
With regard to the police sub-station,
Mayor Pagan will recommend to the
Council that it be turned over to the
School Trustees to be used as a High
School. This will relieve the overcrowd-
ing in the primary departments. By using
the rooms now used for the primary grade
children.
The police have been notified by Chief
Donovan of the resolution compelling the
men to resign from mem mbershIp in polit-
ical organizations, ana tneV nave all
complied by sending in their designations
to their several organizations.
Yesterday the gentleman who was try
ing to sell horse TO the Police Depart-
ment for the new van took his horse
away, as he was informed Mayor Pagan
will not consent to the Commissioners
buying the house. The old patrol wugon
will have to De repaired. and this will
take some time. Mayor Fagan has fur
ther decided to have the van aud patrol
wagon both stationed at the Bloomfield
street house.
The Council at its meeting Monday
appointed four drivers.
WATCHING ECONOMY.
The Mayor says two are sufficientn and
he Will refuse to sign the salary warrants
of the extra two. By tomorrow 1t is ex-
pected the Detective force will be organ
lied under the direction of Detective Ser
geant Tanning. 1t has been customary for
the steamship authorities to secure at
their request any number of officers they
seemed necessary for preserving order on
their piers, especially OH sailing days.
AS many as dozen men have been
on one pier at time. This
is, of course, extra duty for the men.
Mayor ragan doesn't believe in this
kind of business. If the steamship au-
thorities want officers tor their piers they
will hereafter have to pay for them.
