A DISCIPLE OF
|. BLACK ART.

Through the outskirts of a Western
metropolis walked a mar in the thickly
falling snow. He was n man who had
only enc desire in life unqualified. His
name was Henry Wetherbee, and he
was a large; deep-chested, handsome
mana mans man; by which | mean
that he was hardly n woman's man at
all. SO absorbed had he beer in the
wheat pit all his life that he hardly
noticed women, not w his landlady.
And vet he was the sort of Il man that
is likely to make a serious matter of it
if he loves a woman or n wOman loves
him.
Henry Wetherbee came from a little
Wisconsin town up in the pinery. He
made his fortune before he was thirty
five years old, and for the last five
years he had been trying to find out
what he wanted to do with it.
He wanted only one thing in the
world, and that one thing money could
not buy for him. So he was often puZ-
zled as to how he might best spend his

Steel P~etticDRtS.

Many fashionable dressmakers are
shocked by the appearance upon the
scene of a steel %peticoat. This tor
mentor comes from Paris and is made
of the finest material. 1t is destined
to be worn with the widest of the new
skirts to keep them well spread out.
Though the modistes are aware of the
presence of the steel petticoat, also the
hustle and the hoopskirt, yet they de-
cry all knowledge of their use and an
ticipate a decided movement against
such artificial and unhealthy aids to
eccentric fashion in America. There is
no doubt that the metropolitan dress
makers are doing all they can to ward
off the hoopskirt and its AS
a rule they are personally against
their adoption, according to ne of
their number.

links, are bent like a cows horn. 9th
erS make about II complete turn. An
otner stage of evolution is furnished
by the gyroceras, and from this to the
nautilus the transition is easy.
From the figures which have been re-
ferred to it will be seen that the lines
where the edges of the partitions meet
the body walls form circles around
the shell, or at most are gently undu
lating. In the case of the tin horn
used for illustration the lines would be
circles. If now the edges of the tin
disks forming the partitions had been
crimped, like the edges of a piepan,
the lines where they touched the tube,
or horn, would have run around in a
zigzag or wavy manner. BY having
the crimpS themselves crimped the line
would have been more complicated.
Even in the nautilus it is somewhat
undulating. But in the family of am
monites the complication gradually be-
came enormous. The baculite, which
was a straight shell like the orthoceras,
illustrates the course taken by the
edges of the partitions. Where the line
runs backward and then again for
ward there We're, in life, in the body
chamber, something like pockets into
which lobeS of the animals body en-
tered. But the baculite had very SIM
pie partitions compared with some 9TH
er forms. Our figure of the phylloceras
shows a higher grade Of complication.
This figure represents a specimen,
with a portion of the outer wall re-
moved. The parts left white would be
occupied by lobes and fringes of the
animals body, and into and between
these ran the partition wall. After a
time the animal would move forward

Beardsley's art may be decadent and
his lungs diseased, but his heart seems

the desire to make his sister and his

CONTERNO'S BAND.

DR.. G. E. Conterno is one Of the
very few musical authors who possess
the rare genius Of composing music
of all description, such as marches,
waltzes, fuges, symphonies, operas and
oratorios. His style Of composition is
every style, his productions are pro-
life and number upwards of one hun
dred and twenty-five. Melody flows
from him as water from a fountain,
harmony, with him, is a gift Of learn
ing and scholarship. A few months
ago he conceived the idea Of compos-
ing a patriotic musical spectacle which
should be essentially American, and
thereby appeal to the nation at large.
The idea was greatly encouraged by
his many friends, and he proceeded to
work on the piece. The result OF his
unfiinching energy has borne its fruits,
and Battles Of Our Nation" is consid-
cred one Of the most popular and in
teresting pieces produced before the
public to-day. II will be seen at Mo-
Fart Park next Sunday and Monday,
September and 6.
