Raphael is described by the art critics
as 1.-THE first OF painters for moral force
In allegory and history unrivaled: for
fidelity in portrature unsurpassed; who
has never been approached in propriety
of invention, composition, or expression;

Giotto's greatest advance In painting
was the rejection of the greenish-biack
color the Byzantine painters employed
for the human figure and substituting the
color of nature for the face and hands.

He Can Buy the Duke of DevonshIre's Town
House and BE One of the NObs.
Here is a great chance for the Gould
or the Vanderbilt millionaire. The
Duke of Devonshire is to sell his town
house in Piccadilly so as to prevent his
successor being placed in a dilemma IN
order to meet the demand for payment
of death rates, which will be diff
cult for him to face. The duke asks the
bagatelle of "a750, 600" for his house.
a mere trifle considering how ready an
Astor was to buy Cliveden that cost as
much again.
1t will be an awful pity to let such q
chance slip by you, George. Go in and
buy DevOnshire House and one of the
nobs But this death rates business in
England is playing the deuce with rich
men s property, and the Duke of Devon
shire shows more consideration for his
successor than the former duke showed
for him in cOnsentipg to part with sach
a big portion of his estate. Had not the
present duke married the Duchess If
Manchester his patrimony would not
have suffered, and renowned DevonslIire
House would still continue to be the
center of attraction for the political lrar-

The men also wear ornaments, but not

take great pains with their hair, doing
it up in the strangest and dirtiest way
conceivable. A common style is to build
it, with the aid Of strips of bamboo,
into three hard ridges, several inches
high, running from the front to tho
back Of the head. Each ridge is mount
ed with a close row Of common white
shirt buttons Sometimes a card con-
tanning as many as six dozen is sewed
on above each ear. The ridges Of hair
do not alwa-s run fore and aft They
are often in circles built up like n story
cake and iced with buttons Sometimes
a kind Of splashboard is built out be-
hind. running from ear TO ear, TO hold

The ruperiority Of refrigeration OBJ
tanned by mechanical processes. as CON-
pared with that obtained by melting ice
appears In the facts that by 10 more in
tense cold may be secured; that any de-
sired degree Of cold may be maintained
with perfect uniformity; that . drier
atmosphere is secured I'm the refrigerat-
ing box or room; that the inconvenience
OF frequently repfeniAhing the Ice bun
kers and the slop and dirt attendant upon
this work are avoided; that the annoy
ing uncertainty Of ice supply and varia-
bility IN its price are avoided; that
space in the rooms or boxes TO be cooled
is economical by substitution Of q coil
Of pipe ON walls Of ceiling for the bulky
ice bunker, and that this refrigeration
can be employed for many purposes and
places where Ice cannot be used at all.
Added to all this Is the fact, Of para
mount Importance, that whore much
refrigeration is required the cost Of q
machine and its operation Ia far less
than the cost Of ice sufficient to do an
equal amount Of work
These advantages have proved so great
in practice that every brewery, pac king
house, cold storage warehouse or other
establishment requiring large amount
Of refrigeration contains its individual
refrigerating plant Where consumption
amounts TO ten tons or more of ice daily
the question Of economy will be almost
invariably decided in favor of the ma
chine. II less than ten tons be required,
the cost Of a machine and its operation
may exceed the cost Of ice sufficient TO
do a similar amount Of work. In many
cases the superior quality of the refrig-
GRAFTON obtained, its cleanliness, relia-
bility and convenience OF the require
ment Of mote intense cold than ice will
produce secures the adoption Of the ma
chine Therefore small machines are
frequently found on shipbOard, in no
tells and apartment houses and In many
manufactures, but most Of the ice gath
cred from rivers and lakes or made in
factories is not consumed by the few
who require large quantities. but by the
many. who severally require less than
ten tons a day.
The effort to bring this superior re-
frigeration within the reach Of small
consumers has taken two directions
the production Of small and inexpensive
automatic machines and q system Of
supply Of the reirigerant from central
stations The first has failed hitherto.
because the balance of constantly vary
ing pressures, temperatures, strength CT
solution, etc, is too complex a matter
for purely automatic regulation With
out constant skilled attention the ma
chimes work enthusiastically, while the
relatively high cost Of plant, fuel and
cooling water in operating on a sma!!
scale defeats economy. Chicago Times

FRANKLIN SOCIETY.
President Smiths Lecture on ''The City
of Perugia" Delivered Last Night.
OPP. Shepard's Dry Goods Store.

The regular meeting OF the Franklin
Society was held last evening at their
rooms, 81 North Main Street. Presi-
dent Scott A. Smith read a paper on
"The City OF Perugia." He first discussed
the question as to who the people were
that built the cities of the part of
Italy anciently known as Etruria,
and gave to the then existing
world very high degree of civilization.
They were eminent in agriculture, military
tactics, medicine, astronomy and the like;
and in all these as well as in some of the
furniture, the Romans became their
ready disciples and imitators. They were
the architects and builders on whom
the Romans called to construct
their temples and such works
as the famous Cloaca Maxima
Etruscan cities were clean and healthy.
The whole region now known as Umbria
and Tuscany was, before Rome existed,
densely populated. They were both emin-
emily domestic i'm habits and religious.
Their religion bound them by
such bonds that there were no
civil contests such as ultimately proved
the destruction of Greece. They ex-
celled in all the arts, and their
jeweiry in the delicate minuteness Of its
construction and artistic quality has not
been equalled to this day. Were it not
for the fact that in form and features the
Etruscans did not resemble any other
people, (neither did they in language and
manners) it might be believed that
they were Pelasgian Greeks to which
stock had been added inhabitants from
Lydia. Their language was unique, and
utterly alien tc every known family of Ian
guages, and 10 clue mas yet been found for
its Interpretation.
"Perugia is now tEe empress of hill-set
Italian cities" At an elevation Of 1909 feet
above the pe!ghbcring valley of the Tiber
it commands an unrivslled view of the
most beautiful scenery in all beautiful
Italy.
Its history during the Renaissance
period is full of those violent contrasts
which were the outcome Of time wien
men did what seemed good i'm their own
eyes-"What he could was the limi.
Of what he would" Conditions were then
eminently favorable To the growth OF art
and the pursuit of science. Here
grew up the art Of Perugino,
unrivalled, in many ways, ny that OF any
other artist except his pupil, Raphael.
One gets no true and exact IDEA OF Peru
gno's art, EXCEPT from his works now
gathered in Perugia.
A ride from Perngia to Assist in June
gives one the feeling that but one such
region is due from a Creator 20 ONT world.
The reading of the paper occupied
three quarters OF an hour and was listened
to with marked attention. The next
paper will be read May 3, by T.. :. Hop
kins. Subject, "Along the Hedges"

THE meetings of the executive COM
mittee of the National Republican
League in Washington present striking
contrasts to the meetings of executive
committees of the Democracy, the Re-
publican gatherings being marked by
enthusiasm and harmony. Colonel
Henry f. Tiepke, Pawtucket's honored
chief executive, represents Rhode Island
and was able to contribute big share
to the general enjoyment by telling them
the good news from Rhode Island. He
was honored by being selected, together
with the president and secretary of the
league, AS committee to prepare subjects
for consideration at the coming conven-
tion at Denver and map out plans of
league works. Little Rhody is right in
it, and Colonel Tiepke is the man to
keep her there.

Series of Flannel Sales.

The first of a series of the largest sales
of fiannels and blankets that have been
held since 1890 took place yesterday at the
auction rooms of Morris Il Mitchell, "a
and GO White street, New York. The
local trade was well represented
and among the buyers and lockers
on were jobbers from Philadelphia,
Chicago, Providence, st. Louis and other
important centers. Although the bidding
was brisk, prices did not run as high as
was the case four years ago; but the de-
cline in prices Of wool is probably ac-
countable for that.
In all about S750,000 was realized by the
sale of white and twiIled fiannels by order
OF Deering, Milliken & Co. There were
also sold 1000 cases of French tlannels by
order OF Phillips a. Myer.
Seven thousand packages OF plain and
twilled fiannels and 1000 packages OF
Whittendon and oole cotton blankets
will be offered today by order of Faulkner,
Page & Co., and on Friday there will be q
sale OF fiannels and blankets by order OF
w. l.. Strong q Co.

nothing else and by conducting his bust
ness on an extensive scale he can get the
greatest production for the least money,
and this is true in every braach or pro-
cess Of the work of converting the wool
into the goods. A designer wishing to
create new design can buy quarter OF
pound if necessary of a certain
quality and shade of yarn. while in
America several hundred pounds would
be regarded as picayune buying, for
here the yarn has to be made to order.
In England that branch whose business
it is to make that part of the goods has
it in stock or is always in readiness to
create.
In America every process is gone
through with in every. mill. CDnse-
quently no matter on how big "a scale
the mill is conducted each process is a
retail business when compared with the
same process in England, where one
mill is devoted to one process, supplying
all the mills that use the finished pro-
duct of that process The saving in
machinery, in cost of plant and operat-
ing expenses, the advantage resulting
from a wholesale in preference TO re-
tail business, the work of the skilled
operative who has learned just one
piece of work and who can do that and
that only but do that at least under cir
cumstances makes it absolutely GER
tain that his labor will yield better re-
suits than the labor of a similar opera
tive under the American system.
All England is the part of this vest
industrial machine. In order 10 estab-
lish such system in America the entire
industrial system must be revolutionized
and reorganized on basis that it has
taken centuries to ripen and bring about
in England.

OF the Canonchet acres, and II Is also known
that some lots were auctioned OF two years
ago at fair prices. But sprague has always re-
sisted any attempt to cut Canonohet estate

dwelling. His resistance has at times been very
emphatic. lie has fought forit before so Wig
