This painting is by the celebrated Rus.
sian artist, Henry Ippolytovitch Stem
iradsky; it is the property OF the Academy
and was painted in 1857. 1t should more
properly be entitled "Christ in the Garden
of lazarus" for our Lord is represented
sitting on the steps under the vine clad
lattice work, with Mary at his feet, while
in the distance is seen Martha, ladened
with jars, and busying herself in affairs Of
the house. The picture is wonderfully
conceived in the mute admiration de-
picted on Mary's face as she gazes at her
divine Master, and his tender expression
and deep mystical eyes.
This picture, with eleven others, is on
exhibition in one of the counting room
windows. Next Sunday mornings EAGLE
will contain the coupon which. if you will
bring to the cou ntiDg room OF the EAGLE
with 20 cents, you Will secure them in a
handsome folio.

MUSIC AND DRAMA.
MoRRIsoN's FAUST.

Faust as given by the Morrison company
will be the attraction at the Crawford
Grand January II aud II.
While the world endures Goethe's
tragic story of Faust and Marguerite will
continue TO live. The story has been cele-
brated in song and in its operatic form has
been deliberately staged for many years,
but it remained for this company to pre-
sent it in worthy dramatic form with all
effects and accessories necessary to give it
that weirdness intended by the author
In this version the role Of Mephisto is
made jolly jovial devil. one we'll calcu-
lated to enchain the souls of men in the
glamour of forbidden pleasures. The
scenic effects are strongly brought cut
and serve to accentuate the dramatic sit.
uaiions in a vivid manner. One of the
most notable effects is at the end of the
first act, where Mephisto exults over the
capture of the soul Of Faust, when midst
darkness aud thunder bursts the blazing
cross appears over the cathredrai doors
In the garden scene again where the flowers
burst into bloom by electricity and the
duel scene when Mephisto comes 10 the
aiG OF Faust the flashing steel produces q
pale blue fame, giving wierd effect,
reaching its climax IN the scene OF the
witches carnival in the Brocken, where
the electric fluid plays an important part
ending in shower 0. Ere and in the clos
ing scene where the angel Marguerite is
bearing the senseiess form Of Faust
marking Mephisto's final end.

put in the best shape for pushing
the affair to a successful issue. A
clause admitting Of an honorary
membership was added to the by
laws, and a number Of influential
citizens added to the roster Of the
society.
More artists in different parts OF

ton will be the most important

SPEED OF TROLLEY CARS.
It Can Be Gauged by the Purring
Sound of the Machinery,

From Casters Magazine.
The speed of a trolley car when
passin g any given point has been
a matter upon the determination
of which a good deal of discussion
has been expended. To put rev.
olution counter upon the axle
would solve the problem, but it is
frequently desirable to ascertain
the speed of a car without tho as
sistance of street car company.
Particularly is this desirable when
seeking evidence thai the cars are
being run at a higher rate of speed
than allowed by law. 1t is well
known that the motor gives forth
a peculiar sound when the car is
running. This sound Whittier in his
poem on "The BroOmstick Train"
likened to the purring of a witch's
cat, and it is in this purring sound
that the speed indication lies.
Whenever a number of blows or
taps are delivered in regular
sequence, they will, if their fire.
guency is great enough, form a
musical note. The reason for this
is that the car can not rid itself OF
one sound before another reaches
it; consequently when the mum.
bar of notes rise above certain
number per second a musical note
is the result. The eye possesses a
similar faculty, called persistence
OF vision," which makes the fire.
brand give an apparently continu.
Gus circle OF fire when whirled
swiftly about. About one. siXtieth
of second is said to be the limit
OF persistence of vision, and thirty
sound vibrations per minute are
probably the least number which
the ear can recognize. The loves

number Of teeth on gear beinj
known, also the diameter Of tn

to calculate the speed of the car a
the instant the sound Observation
was made, in spite Of all effort
OF the company to prevent the ca
speed from being known.
