Lenbach. the Painter.

In appearance Lenbach is typical of his
race with tall, heavily built figure, near
sighted blue eyes, and thin sandy hair.
His manner is marked by an extreme sim
plicity and an entire absence of ceremony
amounting at times to sort of mental
withdrawal from those about him. Only
after a nearer acquaintance one realizes
that the seemingly careless glance with
which he receives his many visitors takes
In with unerring precision their physical,
social and mental dimensions He is es-
sentially "A self made man. Born of hum
BILE parents a half century ago in little
village eight miles from Munich, he early
showed marked artistic ability, and for a
time was pupil at the academy. He be-
gan almost Immediately To make copies of
the masterpieces in the Alte Pinakothek,
by which he was enabled to support him
self, while at the same time he was form
ing his own taste.
During the years of his early manhood
he made journeys TO Spain and Italy,
Where the cult of the old masters, which
SO distinguishes him, was encouraged and
strengthened. 1t is one of his cardinal be-
liefs that the true breath of inspiration Is
drawn from them, and at this the forma-
tive period of his art he made numberleGs
copies from the italian and Spanish
schools, as we'll as from those of the Meth
erlands. Lenbach, the Painter of BIS

Abortion (SIinking) in Cows.

Prof. Henry E. Alvord. ore Of the
best known agriculturists in
America, when director of the
Maryland Agricultural Expert
ment Station, in letter tells how
he treated this disease.
AGRICULTURAL COLLEGE, p. o., Md.
Dec. 26, 1880.
Dean SirS The following statement of
facts is sent you for what it is worth.
There was certainly an epidemic OF abor-
ton in the herd OF dairy cows here un
der my charge. We used your Kow-
kure. and we have apparently got rid of
the abortion. My previous experience
with this trouble has been such that |
don't feel able to say the powders stop
ped it, but the facts here strongly favor
that assumption.
During the years lSSS and 1889 there
were ten abortions here on the Agricul-
tural College farm, and but three calves
were dropped on time and lived.
In January, 1890, at the suggestion of
Mr.. y. |. Hayward, we obtained some of
your kow-kure, and began using it as
"a preventive Of abortion. During this
year we have had eight live calves and
good ones. and but one case of abortion.
This one case was late in the season.
and heifer; this animal had refused to
eat her grain when the powders were
mixed in it, and thinking the disease had
disappeared, we made no special effort
to get her to take the medicine. We
have pure bred Ayrshire that aborted
(tirst calf in lSSS, and again in 1889:
she is now carrying her calf we'll and is
within few days of the right period of
calving. Very respectfully yours,
HENRY +. ALvORD.

SOUL BOOMING IN INDIA.
Picturesque Salvation Work Described by
Major Deva Sundrum.

Some picturesque personages are con-
nected with the Salvation Army, but per-
haps none of them would excite more at
tention by his personal appearance than
Deva Sundrum, native of the East Indies,
who holds the rank of major in the Army
and who has come to America to consult
Commander Booth Tucker about Saliva
ton work in India. Major Sundrum
wears bright scarlet coat, vivid red
stockings a white turban, and the rest
of his body is swathed in many yards of
creamy white ohecsecloth.
The major was formerly employed by
the Indian government as a surveyor, but

When morning breaks,
What ship shall rise from out the boundless sea
To bid me greeting with the break Of day,
Then float into the blue, forever free,
Or lnger with the changing tides for ayeH
What myths my mind in happy fancy makes
When morning breaksl
When morning breaksl
All, then what founding hopes shall come to
me
To seek fulfllment ere the close Of day.
What songster sweet shall rise from out the lea
And pause to let mo list his roundelay
The while his sleeping mate he gently wakes
AS morning breaks?
When morning breaksl
Thy heart pray from dulling care'l be free,
While mine-ah, had only mine own way
You'd ever dwell beside the wave with me
And see the ships and hear the roundelayi
Alas such visions happy fancy makes

work with the ~ulvationsts he was made
to suffer all sorts of persecution by his
family. His wife was taken away by her
parents, and his own father tried to have
him sent to Jail But be persisted, and
for eight years labored among the high
caste natives. He made poor success, how
ever, and after a season of fasting and
praying in the Jungle no determined to
try his luck among the low caste IIindoos.
His now venture was signal success,
and he made thousands of converts Most
of them were made on what the major
calls soul booming marches. A boom
march is something several degrees more
lively than any method of soul saving
which the Salvationists have yet intro
duced into the country, and from the ma
jor's description must be quite an excit-
ing affair

drums beating, horns blowing and flags
flying they attack village after village
summoning all to surrender in the name
of King Jesus. Sometimes whole village
comes over, and, kneeling down, prays for
pardon and forgiveness and at the same
time gives up demon worship and idolatry.
Quarters are secured in the village, officers
left in charge Of the new converts and the
march rolls on. On one occasion we start

weeks we had 1000 soldiers. l have

Some years ago there was an old lady
in one Of the southern capitals who not
only wore decollete ball dresses at 80,
but. actually possessed the lovely neck
and arms which they require, says the
New York Ledger. She was most in
nocently vain; and no wonder, for she
Yves immensely fattered and her towns
people valued her charms far above
those of her young and more beautiful
rivals. She had a curious way of pre-
pairing for ball, which our modern
fashionable women, with their multi
tudinous engagements would find diff
ficult to emulate. The merning before
she proposed appearing in full regalia
she would take a brisk walk and re-
turn in time for midday dinner, after
which she remained quiet with her
work until about three or four o'clock,
when she would retire to her bed, take
a very hot ptisan to induce perspiration,
and remain in bed (partaking of some
light refreshment at the tea hour) until
it was time to dress for her ball. Then
she would get up, lake q bath and make
the most elaborate toilet. All the house
hold regarded these preparations in the
light Of solemn rites,, and would never
have dreamed of, laughing ct them Or
interfering; With them fl anyway. Her
appearance was q triumph, never fail.

Gold.

Some time ago it was reported that
a marvellous run of ore had been struck
at the Ferguson gold mine on the Seine
river, and soon after it was learned
that the ore was being sacked in the
shaft instead of being put on the stock
pile. Now comes report that the new
stamp mill just put in is being worked
by the officers of the company only and
that no one outside is allowed step into
the mill while the ore is being crushed.
This is taken to indicate the fact that
the run of rich ore is holding out and
that it is not a mere pocket, as was
feared at first. Charles Nelson & Co.,
of st. Paul, representing a new syndi-
cate capitalized at $1,000, 900. has pur-
chased for $40, 600 rich property in the
Manitou country on the American side.
There is quite stir and several COM
