INFLUENCE OF A SONG.


10 Caused Artist ,. q. Browu 10 EnigraAs
Prom England 70 America
After Is months in Edinburgh
Al ist Brown went 10 London. Every
young man in the United Kingdom
with particularly brainy head and
q fine plucky confidence in his abili-
ty to hew out his fortunes drifts to
London. just rs in America clever
young fellows from all parts Of the
country come to New York.
There in the vast metropolis the
young art student made designs for
q manufacturer Of stained glass win
dows and also painted portraits. He
was perfectly willing to paint a
portrait for IS or go. He could fin
ish two of them week.
One night he heard Harry Russell
sing some of his emigrant songs.
Russell was concert singer of those
days. He had a sympathetic voice
and sang popular songs. That set
tied it for young Brown. He would
emigrate. He must cross the wide
blue sea-" And he did. He arrived
in New York on his twenty second
birthday. and he has been here ever
since. AS usual, when he made q
change from one place to another.
he at once sought for his art instruc-
ton in the new field. His f3 prize
and his portrait painting at $40 a
portrait had not yet enabled him to
sink the artisan and be only the art
ist. So he got employment in q glass
factory and went to the night classes
of the Academy of Design, then on
the southwest corner of Broadway
and Thirteenth street. Thomas S.
had charge of these
classes at that time.
So far young Brown g career had
been very like that of the good
young man in the story book. Now,
in the story books, the good young
man. as rule, marries his employ
sr's daughter. So that, though this
IS always most beautiful and de-
ightful thing. it does not seem
thrillingly novel or original on the
part Of the hero. Still this is what
J. Il. Brown did some two years aft
y he arrived in America. He mar
led Miss Owens, the daughter Of
lis employer. They went to live in
Brooklyn. where Mr.. Brown took a
tudio OIL Atlantic and Clinton
treets. And after they had been
ne year married Mr. Owens died,
nd year later came the panic of
S57, in which whatever property
he Owens family had was lost. Mr..
Brown is ever so much better able
0 endure these hard times today,
Then he is 60, than he was then,
'hen he was 26. But he went
head. with the grit that has always
,arked him, painting portraits, and
bout this time he began to paint
pictures of little boys and
iris. with a story" in them. His
,ndness for this class of subject
rought it about that after awhile
Q was spoken of as 1.-The Child
ainter." He is still entitled to this
ppellation, though his tough" lit +
0 newsboys and bootblacks are al
ost too bold and independent to be
yled children. Most of them are
tile men.-John j. A'Becket in st. n

An important decision for school dis
tricts has conn down from the supreme
court at Pierre in case of the Manufacture
er's Furnishing Co. vs.. Frank Kremer,
Peter Wingen, ct al. on appeal from Min.
nehaha county. The substance OF the
case is that an agent OF the furnishing
company went into a township to sell
school supplies and went about securing
the signatures Of the different members
of the school board to the contract, with
a verbal agreement that the contract
would be returned or destroyed If he
failed to secure the signatures OF all the
members. He secured the names of two
of the board, but the third member alb
s~olutely refused to sign h contract.
The furnishing company shipped the
supplies, which the officials OF the town
ship refused TO receive, the suit was
brought to collect for the same on the
ground that the contract had been
signed by a majority OF the board. In
the defense the school officials set forth
the verbal agreement in regard to the
contract being invalid if not signed by
all, and the court held that oral evidence
was not good as against the contract.
The lower court held that it was and
rendered a decision against the company
and on appeal the supreme court sus'
tains the lower court. 1t Is we'll known
that a large part Of the school supplies
to be found Il the country schools is
sold in this manner, most OF the
townships receiving the goods shipped
rather thar stand the expense of ii suit

BUSY At
Bishops and Deputies Discuss the Re-
port OF the Commission.

BtshOps ana Deputies DISCUSS the He.
port Of the Commission.
MINNEAPOLIS, Oct. 5.-Revision was
the absorbing theme before the Episco-
pal general convention during the day.
The house of deputies devoted the
whele of their second days session,
with the exception of In hour spent in
receiving the deputation from the Cana
dian provincial synod. to considering
the report Of the joint commission on
revision Of the constitution and canons
Of the church. The house sat in commit
tee of the whole, to facilitate business,
but so vast and far reaching were the
questions involved, that only three
points of importance Were decided.
The elaborate declaration framed by
the commission to precede the constitu-
ton. was stricken Out entirely, and with
little opposition.
The title, Constitution" by which
the code has hitherto been known, was
changed to Constitutions" the term in
vogue in the Anglican church, on the
ground of conformity. This was not
adopted without opposition, the vote
standing la to I04.
The third and last important change
made in the work of the commission
was in the title General Synod given
by them to the two deliberate bodies
now known as the General Conven.
ton" The word synod awakened a
storm of opposition and the old name
remained.

Let no Christian warrior fear as to the

waged against the powers Of darkness.
When virtue can be slain, when courage

power, then, and not till then, will the
enemy Of home and human good
