Prime Mon Begin = mandansus Pro-
cecding in Df strict Court.
Des Moines, Ia, May 2.-The fight in the
Iowa National Guard has broken into the
courts and promises to be sensational. Two
months ago John r. Prime was elected
brigadler general OF the Second brigade OF
the state guards. Two elections were held,
the first resulting in no choice. After the
first election Prime companies enlisted
men up to the full legal limit, and voted
them all, electing Prime at the second cleo
ton. Adjutant General II. III. Wright had
taken the side of Colonel James A. Guest
of Burlington against Prime. and even sent
out kilograms ordering companies to vote
solid for Guest. After Prime was elected
he refused to issue his commission or even
canvass the vote. The Prime men got
tired waiting and yesterday. after the adj
jutant general and Governor Drake had
been given opportunity to formally refuse
10 issue the commission, a mandamus pro-
ceeding was begun In the district court
against the governor and adtutanf general
to compel the issue Of the commission.
Notice was served on them In the after
noon and the case will come up for hearing
| at the next term OF court unless the COM
mission il sooner issued.
1t Is charged that General Wright has
been guilty of conduct unbecoming an Of
ncer and gentleman in taking a partisan
position In the election: also that he has
violated the express provision OF the state
law by attempting to hold the once while
he II not q resident of Des Moines. the law
requiring that the ad1utant general shall

stirred up much feeling among the guard.

That Is How a Southern Congressman

IRONY OF FATE.
i1 Pursues Two Eminently Respectable
 Ladies Who Could Not Agree,


 Not long ago there were two ladies stopping at the same boarding house. They were single ladies, be it said, and both highly respectable. But for some reason, says the Minneapolis Times, known only to themselves, they couldn't get along," and matters went between them from bad to worse till they "quit speaking"
 They both got tired, of course, living in the same house with mortal enemy, Arrangements were made, and, as luck would have it, both moved the same day. Lady No. loaded up her house. hold goods in the morning, and in the afternoon a dray pulled up and car ried away the trunk, shawlstraps, and other effects of lady No. 9.
 Lady No. was just composing her self to view the surroundings of her new lodging place, when a wagon stopped at the front door and began to unload a collection of articles unmis- takably feminine. She sized up the trunk and went downstairs, filled with a horrible suspicion, to interview the landlady.
 Her suspicious were true. They had moved into the same house.
 There is no more to the story. Of course, they should have made up their differences and lived in peace and char ity ever after. But they did not. Lady No. never got her trunk inside of the house.

ART INFORMATION.

A MANUAL FOR CHINA PAINTERS. Being
practical and comprehensive treatise on the art
of painting china and glass with mineral colors
BY Mrs. y. Di X. MonacheSi Boston: Lee &
Shepard. Price 81 rs.
This is one of the most thorough and COM
plete manuals for china painters ever prepared,
con tanning practical directions for every step;
and offering such instruction and suggestions
in the use OF mineral colors as will enable
amateurs TO pursue this beautiful art by them
selves. Abundant information is given In
reference to materials, which includes colors,
brushes, mediums ETC., and how to use them
Valuable suggestions are furnished as to the
requirements of decorative art and useful
hints follow on the correct designs for table,
ware. In short, nothing pertaining to this art
seems to have been omitted that could aid the
student, and the author says, in her introduc-
tion, the book contains such information as
she sorely needed herself while learning to
paint on china.
Mrs. Monachesi has had large experience in
practically and theoretically demonstrating
her familiarity with this art, both with her
brush and pen-having already acquired a
reputation from her con ntributions to various
art journals-and is considered an authority
on Keramics. The color plates showing the
exact Lacroix colors make a most valuable
addition to the Manual. Their correctness is
assured by the fact that they were made in
Paris by Lacroix himself especially for this

This is a little work by a local writer. Its

withal it is Interestingly written, and the
author appears to have a good command of
vigorous English.
The work deyotes some space to q considera-
ton OF the snug and comfortable latter din

aeterizing theory, the author proceeds to
elaborate the description, remarking that it is
the belief of those who hold il that .'every
sentence, word. syllable and letter in the Bible
is the word of God.''
For those who hold this belief the author
has scant respect. mo sane man." she re-

their belief, but steadily scorn the whole book
