A RI AN D ARTS IS

The landscape work done by Mr.. Edward
Siebert during the past summer at Paxson,
Va, though not large in amount, is nota-
BILE, both on account of it's thorough han
ding ana it's genuine artistic feeling. One
small canvas, a view into a deep woods
has about it an especially refreshing out
door quality in the cool green of the foli-
age and the delicate color of the grass in
front Another good piece of work is
woodland brook with a strong sunlight eff
feet while in different key from either
of these is glimpse of harvest field full
of the reddsh-brown hues of approach
ing autumn. Equally attractive too, is
Mr.. Sebert's sketch of a swiftly flowing
rivulet tunblng down over it's rocky bed
among the trees. which is full of rich and
brilliant colorlng.
Few parts of New England offer greater
charms to the artist in search of picturesque
landscape than the coast of Maine. Mr.
Frank Moss, who spent the summer at
Prouts Neck near Portland, has returned
with a number of suggestive sketches and
studies from that region, although he de-
voted only part of his time to work One
of the best of these is view looking across
a small bay to the hills on which Speaker
Reeds summer home is situated The col
oring in the water and in the wide sweep
pecially striking Another canvas shows a
typical bit Of Maine coast, in which the
central feature is the shore line of dark
and rugged rocks, A couple of Mr. Moss
other sketches along the coast are equally
enjoyable, while in his studies of the salt
lakes and marshes further inland he has
been very successful in reproducing the
warm. rich tints of the grasses growing in
those localities. I'D

Catholic University in this city, and DR.
William O'Hara of Philadelphia, are old
acquaintances and acknowledge that sort
of friendship which enables one man 10
borrow money from another when occa-
sion demands 1t.
This friendship. a telephone and a clever
impersonator are Jointly responsible for
the story, and for the further fact that a
prominent physician of Philadelphia is
looking for a man who robbed him of $40
The other night DR.. OHara was called
up over his residence phone by a famil-
lar voice. The voice represented that 1t
belonged to Monsignor Conaty; that the
Monsignor was in urgent need of tenn
porary loan of S10 wherewith to trans
port his brother. Peter Conaty, home and
that the money would be returned by
check as soon as the Monsignor returned
to Washington.

the doctor, deceived by the close re-

and the one really belonging to his friend,

REGISTRATION IN DELAWARE.
A Man Who Would Vote Must Pay
One Dollar.

Wilmington, Del. Aug. 6.-This is the
first of the registration days in the State
under the new constitution. and there is
much interest aroused among the pohti-
clans.
The requirements Of the constitution
for voting are that a voter shall pay a
registration fee OF 81 and must be resi-
dent of the State There is also a clause
designed 10 prevent bribery and corrup-
ton under which an applicant for reg
istration can be made to swear that no
one has given him the dollar required
or that It has not been paid to him BY
the party managers. II is designed to
compel every voter TO pay his own mon
ey, thus making him free from the party
managers
Just how many each party will lose
under the new requirement is a question
Both parties in the past have provided
many of their voters with tax receipts
and it has cost these voters nothing to
cast their ballots.
This afternoon the three Democratic
clubs of the city issued an appeal to
Democrats urging them 10 register and
calling attention to the new law These
organizations are the Young Mems Dem
ocratic Club the Bayard Legion and the
Democratic League. The address in part
says:

THE PHILADELPHIA REUNION.
Friction Develops Among Grand

Army Men.
Richmond, Va, Aug. 6.-It looks as II
some disagreeable incident always mars
the laudable intentions of those good
people who wish to bring about kindly
ern veterans of the late war. For several
days past the members of Pickett Camp
have been making preparations to attend
the reunion of the blue and gray at
Washington Park on the Delaware, near
Philadelphia. They were cordially invit-
ed by several Grand Army posts and
other military organizations to take this
trip, and committee even came to Rich
mond to extend personal invitation. But
there seems to be many ex-Union soldiers
in Philadelphia who for some reason or
other, do not care to encourage the cor
dial relations of blue and gray
Several of the Pickett Camp men have
received letters. both signed and anony-
mouse, warning the Johnny Rebs against
visiting the Quaker City and limiting that
they are being made objects of exf1ibi-
ton by the proprietor OF beer garden.
Resolutions of the Grand Army Associa-
ton, of Philadelphia, adopted In the
Quaker City JUL %, have also been
printed and have been shown to the
richmond people. In these resolutions
the association disc!aims any participa-
tion directly of indirectly in the encamp
inent at Washington Park and asserts
thde all the moneys realized from this
entertainment will go into the pockets of
the proprietor of the park.
uFthermore the organization asserts
tnat u mas no affiliation with a scheme
"nich places their former enemies on

or course, such incidents as those above
mentioned are well calculated TO give

felt, and that this element opposi-
ton amounts to but little. The ( utlemen
Of the friendly faction beg the Pickett
men to carry out their plans and to dis
regard the disagreeable matters brought
to their attention.
The truth of the whole affair is that
there appears 10 be internal dissension
among the Grand Army veterans. AT any
rate, the indications are that the trip
will not be interfered with. though some
few OF the Pickett men have been hesi-
tating since they saw the resolutions
adopted by the association. The Rich
monders will leave tonight unless some
thing unforeseen alters their plans
