Neither could il be expected that he had
not returned with a manner tinged by
that of the great French masters of the
day. But there is enthusiasm in his
work and much expression, in the col
lection as a whole, out of his individual
feeling. Particularly admirable is each
picture where the "main theme" is OF an
architectural character as in No. AZ, ga

Mr.. Norton is gregarious, and we think
pleasingly so, in his character which ex-
presses itself throughout his work in his
assemblage of humanity and animals as a
part of his street scenes and landscapes.

When a person finds jewel OF great

SO it is with Mr.. Norman s. Mclean OF

fortune prompts him to give for publica-

see the good work accomplished and cease
doubling. There is no teacher, but Mr..
Breul comes in once month and criti-
cizes the work. Lectures on anatomy are
being arranged, and a class in modelling
may be formed. Few OF the members are
learning to draw as pastime. Most OF
them are engaged in photography, or some
other work in which their practice stands
them in good stead. A number are old
pupils of Mr.. Bruel, Mr.. Whitaker and
others, and one is lately from the Acade-
mic julien. Good work is expected, and
each applicant is obliged to submit a
drawing from life or cast.
The officers for the year are Scott G..
Cartee, president; w. b. Seidensticker,
secretary; and j. Hass, treasurer. The
dues are one dollar month and the en-
trance fee two dollars. Once month,
after a business meeting, the members
meet socially, and are never lacking mus
ical ones among their number.
1t is most earnestly to be hoped that the
league may become permanent institu-

during the working months, and plans
are being made for out-of-door work dur

"My nervousness is all gone and the
pains back of shoulder blades, spots be-
fore my eyes and that tired feeling have
left me. My bowels are all right, do not
have cold feet any more, nor any more
hard beating around my heart, nor do
have tostop to rest while going to work.

on me, and at least twenty other people
have told me how badly they felt and
how this medicine has made them as
strong and full'of life as ever. 1t Is the
remedy TO cure, every time"
Mr.. Mclean is right. DIR. Greenes Ner-
vura blood and nerve remedy is the great
est and most certain cure for disease known
in the world today. BY its use he found
the most priceless of jewels-health; and
by its use you also can regain your health
and strength.
1t is purely vegetable and harmless and
is the discovery and prescription of the
eminent physician, DIR. Greene, OF "a
Temple Place, Boston, Mass, the most sue
cessful specialist in curing nervous and
chronic complaints. The doctor can be
consulted free, personally or by letter.

Mr.. Breul called meeting some
three months ago, resulting In the
formation OF "The Art Students
League" with % members. The
membership was limited at first to 30;
latter increased to so; and now the wait
ing list il adorned by several names, and
a further extension favored.
Twelve OF the present members are
ladies, and their mark for attendance is
much nearer par than that OF the men.
The place OF meeting IL Mr.. Breuls old
studio i'm the Butler Exchange and the
time Saturday afternoons from / o'clock
TO A. That is, all meet then to paint from

day evenings the men draw from the
nude, and Wednesday evening the
ladies, who are doing exceptionally good
things.
Models are now secured without diff
Guilty. Most of them are otherwise en-
ployed, but few have adopted posing as
their profession and find many calls To an
swer for their services. They are engaged
for the League by committee of two.
Another committee of two, appointed
each month, have charge of the studio
and the posing of the models. Any sug-
gestion or correction regarding the
pose is referred to them, and the
changes made by their direction.
No other person is allowed to ad-
dress the model. Indeed, the discipline
is needlessly strict, because of the fear of
criticism, and the easy-going Bohemian
ism" of the Paris schools is not in evidence
here.

STAND PIPE BURST.
East Providence Loses Its Famous
Water Tower.
The Loss Is Heavy and VIII Cause
Much Inconvenience-No Reason As
signed for the Collapse.

The huge standpipe OF the East Provi-
dence water works burst last night, and
the big iron plates are now lying In frag-
ments on the ground. Some OF them
were fiattened out, while Others were
twisted and broken by the force OF the
volume of water that wrenched the heavy
pieces OF iron from the pipe.
II was about o'clock when the pipe
burst and the noise, which resembled the
crash of thunder, could be heard for long
distance. At that time there was nearly
100000 gallons OF water, which made a
pressure of 80 pounds to the square inch
in the pipe, and this was hurled out in
an immense flood that swept everything
before it. The lower seven sections OF the
pipe were carried more than loo
feet, while the upper sections
fell directly to the foot OF the granite
base. AS the water rushed down toward
the main road, trees, shrubs and stone
walls were carried away. A barn that
stood i'm the path of the water was hurled
to the ground, and the stones OF the foun-
dation were carried hundreds OF feet.
The pipe was 40 feet in diameter and
was 142 feet high. IL was one OF the
largest stand-pipes in the country having
capacity OF 10000. II was con-
structed with boiler iron, riveted
thickness from 9-32 TO the top OF the
pipe where the thinnest plates were
placed. The pipe was built by the Cum
ningham Iron works of South Boston, at
cost of $30,0 900 and Superintendent Cha
fee who was in charge OF the system
can give no cause for the accident. From
the position of the sections 1t is evident
that the break was below the centre of the
pipe.
As soon as the extent OF the accident
had been ascertained the superintendent
made arrangements for obtaining his
water supply by means OF direct pumping
and the new system was in operation this
morning.

last evening, consequently New Bedford
was beaten handily in the polo game, and
more than a thousand spectators shouted
themselves hoarse. The local team
played all round the visitors
and had the game in hand
from the start. New Bedford seeing that
the contest was hopeless adopted their
usual rough tactics but Providence stood
that scheme off by just the same sort Of
play and the whalers were whaled at their
own game. The score was to 1 in favor
OF Providence. The summary is as fol-

IN a room, presumable by Mary Wash

piecestand buried under the floor of the

OF an lnvestlgationlast Monday. Since
that time the body has been removed
from the room Of the Washington wo.
man and Its whereabouts Is still the

wife and Edwards are under arrest
The woman admits the killing and all
the horrible details and SAYS Edwards
and her husband were both accompliecs
she refused to tell what disposition
has been made of the body. The other
prisoners deny a. knowledge of the
crime. The cause of the murder Is
supposed to have been jealousy, either
on the part of Edwards, who was In
Innate with the woman, or on the part
of her husband. Several brother long
shoremen made feeble attemps to lynch
the prisoners this afternoon, in which
they were unsuccessful.
