PROMISING SCRANTON ARTIST.
His Work Warmly Commended by
Quincy, Mass, ADVERTISER.

In a report a celebration of the one
hundredth anniversary of the inaugu-
ration of John Adams as president of
the United States the Quincy Mass,
Advertiser has the following concern
ing a promising young Scranton artist
who assisted in beautifying the old
Adams cottage which is one of the his
toric landmarks of Quincy:
The medallion picture of John Adams
over the pediment of the front door of the
cottage" is done on paper of an antique
color and is a successful effort of Mr..
Samuel Warner, of Scranton, Pa, to re-
produce the simple wood cut work that
was much in vogue a hundred years ago
Mr.. Warner is young artist of much
promise, now located in Quincy with Mr.
Silas b. Duftield, ir.
His special line of work, children's fig
ures, for book Illustrations and cover de-
signs, appeal to that love which we all
have for children and their unaffected
poses. AS we gaze upon his productions
of the urchins playing at tops or marbles
and of the girls with their boy companions
on their way to school, noting the truth
fulness of their dress and figures Ohe
careless romp not being overlooked) our
minds go back to the happy childhood
days.
His drawings are all from life, the side
walks of our city furnishing him his mo-
dels. He is never so happy as when he
has captured an urchin of striking care
leSSness of dress and pose to stand for him
in his studio. The idea of truthful draw
ings of children for illustrative purposes
has not been fully appreciated in art, but
| its conception appeals to the discerning
| mind of the present day, and Mr.. Warner
| cannot help but reap the reward that his
| talents warrant, and so we are pleased 10
have him amongst us.

In Memorisun.

The Woman's Home and Foreign Mis-
sionary Society of the Presbyterian
Church, of Marshall, would lovingly re-.
cord a tribute to the memory of their
late President, Mrs. Jane 81. Dick, who
entered into the presence of the King,
August 26, 1895.
In her death we lose one who was
ever ready and always willing to do
"what she could" Naturally Of timid
disposition, she shrank from publicity,
but her abilities brought her to the front,
and from her example we learn to press
onward and upward, never yielding to
encouragement.
She was ever zealous for our Society
and the cause We represent, and one oi
the last public services she attended was
its twentieth anniversary, which was
celebrated by public meeting, June %,
1885, and at which she presided most
capably.
We assure her family Of our deepest
sympathy in their loss. but would re-
mind them Of that blessed promise that
to oe .absent from the body" u to be
"pressnt with the Lord"
