G. s. Perhacs, who was a lieutenant
in the German arm and is now an
artist in Brooklyn, with a studio on
Liberty street, has been engaged for the
last six months in transferring to can
vas his own ideas of the appearance and
surroundings of the entrance to the in
fernal regions.
Mr.. Perhacs says his painting will be
marked by one feature at least which
will be entirely original.
The picture is 10 by "a feet in dimen-
sions and will contain 100 figures. The
two which will stand out most promi-
nently will he Colonel Robert G. Inger-
soil and the "prince of darkness" other
wise satan The artist proposes to put
his production before the public under
the suggestive title of "Ingersoll In the
Drawing Room of He'll"
1t is said that a letter was received
from Colonel Ingersoll saying he had
no objection to the use sof the title

Pittsburg sportsmen are up in arms
against the wholesale illegal fishing
there is going on in the Allegheny and
Ohio rivers. According to Trustworthy
reports there never was illegal fishing
on more wholesale and public basis.
Thousands of pounds of the best kind of
fish have been caught recently, and the
singular part of it is that every body
seems to.know about it. The fish tina
have been secured by the poachers are
publicly offered for sale and the viola
tors of the law act as if the law was
strictly on their side.
It really is an outrage the way the
law is being violated, and the thousands
Of sPortsmen in and about Pittsburg are
aware of the fact, and nobody seems to
be able to do anything about the matter

Ibsen


| Ibsen's mastership as an artist be-
comes still greater when it is considered
that many of his subjects are not by
themselves dramatic, but rather epic
novels. In a decisive moment the char
acters simply speak for themselves to
each other, and the threads of their
lives are laid bare by what they say.
Thus nearly the whole dramatic effect
is reduced to our interest in getting to
know him who speaks and him who lis
tens, but that is only possible as the sto-
ry goes on, now and then interrupted
by an event which carries 1t further in
another manner. Really we are pres
ent at kind of cross-examination, but
the Issue is not how he got her or why
he did not get her. The issue is about
life and DEATH and that gives every
word such an importance that we are
afraid of missing the finest shading in
the expression. In such a manner of
composition there is, however, some
thing queer, and Ibsen will hardly have
many imitators. Forum

Lord Salisbury then turned abruptly
to the Armenian question, and re-
preached the religious communities
with laboring under u mistake when
they supposed that England had
bound herself In honor to succor the
Armenians, which means to go to war
with the sultan, in order to forco him
to govern the Armenians we'll. The
Berlin treaty, Lord Salisbury said,
merely bound the signatory powers
that, if the sultan promul rated certain
reforms, they would watch over the
execution of those accommodating

interpret that as an undertaking to 90
to war. As TO the Cyprus convention,
L)eI salisbury continued, it contains

hearers that the reforms which tie

very good reforms, could not be OK.

Lord Salisbury also referred to the
recent Transvaal crisis as throwing a

As soon as the Transvaal was in trou-

foreign powers instead of to England

The Times says Of the speech: Lord
Salisbury's tone with reference to Ar

tons were rather unusual But they
will convince all fair-minded men that
the fault does not lie with the British
