ALL is SERENE AGAIN.
The kerens-Gary-Bristow Unpleasant.
ness Has Apparently Been Ad-
fusted Satfefactorfly.

Washington, Oct. 12-(Special) National
Committeeman Kerens returned to-day
from Elkins. w. Va. To The Journal cor
respondent he stated that the existing re-
lations between himself and the postmaster
general and Fourth Assistant Postmaster
General Bristow are of an entirely satis-
factory character. The hatchet has appar-
emily, been buried, and Colonel Kerens has
nothing but pleasant things to say of both.
He declares the statement that the presi-
dent has censured Mr.. Bristow in connec-
ton with the recent tangle over sundry
Missouri postoffices rests upon an error,
which he desires to correct, in justice to
Mr.. Bristow.

Laren, Holland, August 5.-While
the average American girl is Willing
away her time at the seashore, killing
the hours by boating, tennis and fir
tation, her Industrious sister is over
here studying night and day to accom-
plish that most of all to be desired
thing, "a mark in the world"
When you have visited the art CEN
tres of Europe you are easily convinc-
ed that De Maurier was right when
he said that American women stay at
home, but American girls come abroad
to study art.
During the past few months the art
colonies have filled up so surprisingly
with young women that in few years
the art exhibits will be largely from
the brush and pen of the feminine sex.
They are by no means driving the
men out of the field" for in true art
that is impossible; but they are
broadening art with their personality
and making art more plentiful; as we
saw at home more common" AS the
art colonies increase and the good pic
lures multiply, there are fewer OF the
gaudy chromos and the horrid splashes
that made the shop windows one wild
shrek. 1t is not out of common now
to see real works of art offered along
the everyday streets and on the bar
gain tables of dry goods stores. ms

and for some time has been painting

had two pictures in the last Salon, one
of which was Holland scene
Miss TRACER is a very beautiful
Young woman, about twenty-six years
old. and of the style called by the
artists a lemon brunette" A rather
pathetic tale is told of how Miss Ira

years ago art was not as it now Is, ana
Miss TRACER, who lived in town
where they do not paint from the
nude. found it impossible to get a
model. Finally young colored girl
was persuaded to pose for her. The
mother of the young woman accompa-
MED her, and the price paid for the
pose" was worth more than the
painting would eventually bring. How
ever, Miss Trager persevered, because
she saw in the future place for her
in art if she could master the human
figure.
The story of posing, however, be-
came noised around, and Miss TRACER
was regarded with disapproval by the
conservatives. To cap the unfortunate
climax, the young colorel girl took sick
and died at the end of two weeks pos
ing. "She was hoodooed," declared
they. and Miss TRACER, in disgust at
the narrow mindedness Of her nelgn--
bors. shook the dust of her native SOIL
from her feet and came to Paris, where
she has since painted with signal sue
cess.

has been painting here some years Is

sive there could be certain restrictions
that would bring down the cost to an or

The idea of making little craft for use
only along shore does not seem to enter
the calculations. for all are immense ocean
palaces that would accommodate 100 or
200 persons as well as two. The argu-
ment in favor Of size is that if the yacht
is worth building at all. il is worth build
ing we'll And il it stands-as it villas a
monument of American workmanship, and
as a sample of American generosity, it
should be either something fine or not at
all
Another Of the yachts is modelled after
one built I'm the Philadelphia shipyards for
the crack yachtsman. Lord Phoenix. This
is three mssted steam yacht. 1t has
q foot beam. is 1885 over all, has 16 foot
depth OF hold and a 10 foot draught. It's
gross tonnage is nearly 400 tons and the
area OF its sails is 1900 feet.

not take a great deal Of time away YACHT
ing. this may be approved finally.
A way much more in keeping with the
"close" terms the United States makes
with its Presidents. however. is 10 make
an appropriation for the yacht AMI allow
nothing TO so beyond so much. over that
sum the President pays the bills out of
his own pocket.
The Presidents special train could b.
used to bring the President 10 the inaugu-
raj ceremonies and TO take the retiring
President home. So with the yacht. il
The President happened to hail from any
o. the States on either coast the yacht
could be used 10 convey him TO Washing

gia or Florida, on the Atlantic coast; from
Alabama, Mississippi. Louisiana or Texas
on the Gulf of Mexico; or from California,
Oregon or the State Of Washington. on
the Pacific coast the trip 20 Washington
could be made on the yacht.
What a triumphal procession it would
be fags waving. parties along shore
cheering and the bays and gulf alive with
pleasure craft 20 wave good-speed TO the
President. At the various large seaporSs
would be committees Of greeting and the
Governors CT States would steam out 10
