The Story Of the Work.

A lover of pictures, a man of means,
ma king tour of the art galleries of the
world, realized that the luxury of seeing
all these beauties was limited to the very
wealthy, and to them only by wearisome
and expensive travelling and time. "Why
not in the present age of perfect photogra-
phic reproduction, why not reproduce
the most beautiful, the most popular, the
most noted Of these art treasures ?'' was
the question he asked himself. Why
not indeed; no sooner thought of than
he applied his means and prestige to
secure large photographs of the choice
pictures.
This result is "MAsTERPIEcEs FROM
THE ART GALLERIES OF THE WORLD" F"
The original idea was to issue the book
in parts just as is now being done; but to
charge s.. 90 a part or 800 90 in all.
Now, syndicate Of newspaper pub
fishers has purchased the photographs
and plates and is issuing them to Boom

Now, eUerg one may have this magni-
fcent work which was originally intended
for the rich mans palace.

curious thing about this band, however, is
that the individual members Of itare prob
ably the richest bandsmen in the world.
The Puyallup agency was recently sold,

worth ut least $4,000. AS there are Is men
In the band, exclusive of the leader, it will
be seen that the Puyallup Brass band is
worth Sl50,000. The bandmaster himself
Is said to be worth an equal amount. This
might literally be said to be the music
which soothes the savage breast but it
certainly doesn't ravish the ear"
what are the finest amateur bands you
ever heard i'll America?" said l.
II think that the Fort Wayne City band
aud the Thirteenth Battalion band of Ham
1lton, Ont, easily bear off the palm. Both
OF these organizations play the highest class
music in capable manner. OF course they
do not compare with the better class bands
in the larger cities, but as comparative
amateur performers / have never heard
them eXcelled."
What is the greatest brass band in the
world, in your opinionf" said 1.
Tho Finest on Earth.
ut is generally recognized throughout
the civilized world that the Garde Republic
aine of Paris is the most finished and SUI
perb of all the bands in Europe. 1t has n
membership of 20 performers. Curously
enough, the name of it's leader is Paris. He
was recently appointed to the position after
passing an examination ut the Paris con-
servatoire, which includes among its board
of examiners such eminent musicians rs
Saint Saens and Massenet.
Tho Garde Republicaine band attend
ed Gilmore's jubilee in Boston, and many
OF the novel effects which are used in
American bands were borrowed from these
incompatible musicians. To the Partisan
band is due more than to any other cause
the finish and execution now attained by
bands in America. The Band of the Guides
OF Brussels is propably the closest competi-
tor of the Gartle, excepting perhaps few
OF the higher class bands of America The
Grenadier Guards band Of London also &C.
cupies very high position. There are two
bands of the higher class in Berlin and sew
eral in Vienna which have international
fame among musicians

The sultan of Turkey has n very good band,
and now and then we hear IL whisper in

UNIQUE HUNTING METHODS.
The wiro Limo Drives All Kinds of Game
Before 1t.
Especial Corrcspopdcncc.1


Especial Correspondence
ABILENE, Kan, jan. IL. Western set
tiers become accustomed to all kinds of
oddities i'll politicts, business and amuse-
ment, and the newest form of the latter
is hunting scheme that has been Gc-
veloped on the western prairies of Kan
sas.
In some counties the rabbit pest has
become almost as annoying as in Aus
tralia, and the county commissioners
have offered n bounty for each dead rab-
bit reported to the county clerk. This has
stimulated the nimrods of the vicinity,
and as II result unique methods of gather
ing i'll the agile game have been concoct-
ed. One of these, possible only in prairie
country, is the "wire line" method. In
many western Kansas counties the prai-
RE is so level that plow could turn
every foot of sod without breaking {,
furrow, and a billiard table could scarce
ly be less free from depressions or knobs
than Its buffalo grass covered surface.
10 offset this difficulty the nimrods
have invented the "wire line" Taking
q piece OF heavy wire quarter to half a
mile long, they hitch each end to wagon
drawn by team. 1t is stretched rs taut
as possible, and the marksmen are sta
toned at regular intervals behind it, a
dozen or more being scattered along the
line.
At signal the teams move on parable.
courses, and the long wire sweeps through
the prairie grass, from wagon to wagon,
soaring up every jack rabbit, cotton tail,
coyote, prairie chicken and quail on the
yl1o Hb0
skurried out of their fancied security by
the dragging wire, are easy game for the
hunters, and the wagons are utilized to
carry the spoils. The party moves off
across the plain for half the day, then
lunches, and making a detour returns.
1t is unique hunting, but very unsports-
manlike. The quantity of game brought
in Is, however, enormous, and large ship
ments are made from this section to
towns farther east.
Another distinctively prairie plan is
the hunting contest" and it forms one
of the liveliest amusements of many
western communities. Two of the lead
ing spirits "choose sides" and divide tho
young men of the neighborhood into two
parties. A scale of points is agreed up-
on. A deer counts $50, jack rabbit 80,
common rabbit 10, prairie chicken 90,
and so on, down to one point for quail or
plovcr. At daybreak the eager hunters
go forth and strive for the most possible
game.
AT 5o'clock they commence to arrive
at the rendezvous, where some Judges
are ready to keep tally on the material
brought in. Two opposing piles tower
up and make IL very attractive picture
for the lover of II good hunt The ladies
have not been idle, but in the largest
room of the settlement they have pre-
pared banquet or supper, for which the
losing side will have to pay.
With keen hunger all partake of tho
smoking fare, some of tho game brought
in earliest in the evening contributing to
the list of eatables. Afterward the ta-
bles are cleared away, and to the music
of rustic violinists the young people
dance until late i'll the night.

where are the dense growths of pines with
which the sides are covered, and the snow
hne-at $4,000 feet-there is a belt of
loose sand and granulated sulphur, which
makes the ascent of the lordly cone both
difficult and dangerous.
: The old crater is at the summit of the
mountain. 1t is an enormous abyss, al
most full mile across and between 81
quarter and third of mile deep. This
crater contains immense quantities of
sulphur, which are regularly mined by
Indian laborers, who live in huts at the
foot of the cone, some 1900 feet above
the level of the sea. They climb from
this point to the rim every morning be-
fore going into the crater to do their
mining and at night descend to their
homes by means of slide down the
snow covered side of the cone, the same
route as the one by which the mined
product is shot down.
1t is Il very fatiguing journey to the
crater, but the almost supernal beauty

been accomplished, would almost pay for
any degree of fatigue. The Rio Atlaco
rises from vast lava field at the foot CT

The only recorded eruptions of Popo
catapetl occurred in 1919, 1899 and 1910.
The earliest ascent was made in 1910 by
10 men sent by Cortes. Francisco Mon.
