Rudyard Kip]iDg is nephew of Mr..
Poynter. the new president of the British
Royal academy. %$

only three hours day, and the first hour
hardly counts. 1t is usually between 10
and in tho day that he writes. He is
voice is weak and pitched high. sE%
Nnnsen as an artist has rather surprised
tho English. Studies OF ice foes, of north
ern lights, of arctic nights and other polar
subjects done by the explorer in pastel and
water colors showed him the possess0r of
fine sense of color and the artistic touch.
The late Henri PILE, well known in
France as q painter and black and white
artist, and frequent exhibitor at the sailor,
was Bohemian to the last. Once in the
Champs Elysees salon, where he was act
ing as juryman, he dressed so badly that
police inspector arrested him as an an
nrchist.
The Italian sculptor Victor Ciani, who
has his studio in New York, has just I'm
ishcd the bust of the late Professor Fava,
son of Baron Fava, the italian embassa-
dor in Washington. Though guided only
by very poor photographs taken after Pro-
lessor Fava's death, Mr.. Ciani has sue
ceeded in making this bust a striking like
ness and beautiful work Of art.

PRIMARY LAW IMPROVED.

A bill has been passed, and is
now in the hands Of the governor,
which makes two important
Oh anges III the primary election
law. The first amendment is that
in every case the Judges shall be
elected by the assembled voters,
authority to appoint those officers
bling taken away from the com.
nnttee calling the convention.
Under the old law it was possible
to nuIl1fy all the good effects Of
pr, cinct primaries by selecting, at
the time of the call, judges who
could be relied on to return dele.
gates agreeable to the machine.
The option Of selecting judges or
leaving the choice to the meeting
has been abolished, and the latter
m.4hod must, In all cases, be fol.
lowed hereYfter. : s>s 2.
Another and more radical
amendment of the existing law has
been made. All county conven.
tions, for the choice of delegates to
safe or district conventions, shall
be held on the same day. The
result in one county cannot be
used to affect the decision of any
other. The practice of hurrying
up convention when the local
committee expects things to COM
its way and delaying the call when
the contrary result is anticipated,
will b. impossible under the new
law. The influence Of tn,
managers will b. less potent and
the band.wagon cry will not ne
raised till every candidate has had
a fair show. 1t is an old scheme
to hold few early conventions,
spend plenty Of money, secure &
delegation here and there, and
watch the later counties fall over
each other to get into line. Dave
Hill beat himself in that manner,
with his February convention.
The people will have more voice in
the matter Of nominations under
the revised procedure.-St. Paul
Dispatch.

swinging shelf on which food was kept.
A rat jumped from the wall on to the

wheel started, and Mr.. Rat naturally
ran toward the highest part of it. He
was able to stay on the top of the tire,

No district in America presents during the
Winter season, so many varied attractions as
the State of Florida. Besides its delightful
climate, which TO one esCap 'ug from the cold
and unhealthful changes OF the North seems
almost ethereal it is pre-emineutly "a land of
miles Of saltwater coast and in its twelve
hundred fresh-water lakes are fish of almost
every conceivable variety. from the miga-
tory tribes common 20 Northern waters to the
tarpon pompauo, aud others of a more
tropical character. Nowhere in all our broad
land can the angler find a greater variety of
game or better sport.
Here also the most enthusiastic hunter
finds safety. Deer, turkeys, bears, panthers,
and wild cats roam at large through the more
sparscly settled regions, while birds of all
kinds may be found in abundance through
out the State. The more novel sport of al
ligatOr and manatec hunting may also be in
dulged in by the more adventurous tourist.
With its matchless climate, its orange
groves, its rivers and lakes, its boating and
bathing, its fishing and hunting, and its
extensive forests. Florida presents unrivaled
attractions for the valetudinarian, the lover
of nature the sportsman and the explorer.
To this attractive state the Pennsylvania
Railroad Company has arranged four per-
soually-conducted tours during the season Of
1897. leaving by special train January 20,
February 0 and 23, and March 9. The first
three tours will admit of a sQiourn Of two
weeks in this delightful land tickets for the
fourth tour will be valid to return until May

Rates for the round trip $4,000 from New
