Target Practice.

Ed. Ridout and VIM. Brown,
brothers in law, had some private
target practice, on South Charles
street, last Monday afternoon. One
had a shot gun, the other had
revolver. If they had shot lit
tie bit different, they would have
missed, as it was, they were both
fortunate in missing the "if" and
hit. They fought, bed and didn't
die for their country. AS the prac-
tice was without legal license, they
fell into official hands, and will
give explanations as to how to be-
come answerable for missing tie
bulls eye, before Justice Byers.

1t gives for exercising natural taste in
the arrangement of the outline

IL gives Tor exercising natural taste in
the arrangement of the outline
1t is necessary to use for Shadow
ing those plants that throw a large
and many branched outline, as other
wise the prettiest effect will not be OBJ
tanned when the filing in is done. The
more delicate the tracery work the bet
ter, and 1t is therefore we'll to select
flowers like begonias, ferns, or branch
es like those Of the horse chestnut tree.
However, the selection of the plant
to be used to throw the shadows can
be left to the taste Of the artist 1t
Is impossible to advise, as so many
plants are equally good for this pur-
pose. Having decided on the ground
work, the next thing to do is to paint
the outline of the shadows very me-
thodically- This Is the most important
part Of the work, and great care should
be taken over it, as upon the outlining
depends the success of the fresco The
filling in is comparatively easy. Go
very carefully around the outlines of
the leaves and branches, following the
veins and tracing the outlines of the
leaves and blossoms carefully.
When you have done this the rest of
the work can be finished in the day
time, when the light will enable you
to work with less strain on the eye
sight. Having the outline before you
you will be able to judge of the appear
ance of the work when completed You
will be surprised and delighted at the
result even at this stage. 1t is not all
plain sailing. Some necessary part of
the plant will fail to show in the

RATE WAR SITUATION.
Meeting Called for This Week to
Talk 1t Over.

Meeting Called for This Week to
Talk 1t Over.
A meeting of the presidents of the
leading Eastern lines has been called
for next Thursday and will be held in
New York. The calling of the meet
ing has been made necessary through
the inability of the passenger officials
Of the Western lines to accomplish the
defeat of the Canadian Pacific in the
rate war now on.
Western lines are said to be trying
to induce their Eastern connections to
join them in SIS rate from New York
to Portland, with the idea that such
move would completely rout the Ca
madam Pacific, as it would be abso-
lutely impossible for it to meet so low
rate. It is generally conceded that
this move would prevent the Canadian
Pacific from carrying American pas
sengers. but it is question whether
the American lines would not suffer
more than the Canadian Pacific in
making so long a haul for SO little
money.
All these matters Will come before
the meeting next Thursday, but, in
stead of favoring a plan that would
practically wipe out all the earnings
on transcontinental passenger traffic,
they may decide to cast a damper on
the present rate war by demanding
full tariff rates for their proportion Of
the Eastern business, and refusing to
participate longer in the cut rates. =
Local passenger men said yesterday
that If the. IS rate from New York to
Portland is put in, it will result in the
complete decentralization of rates
throughout the entire country, and that
there was some question as to whether
even such a rate would compel the
Canadian Pacific to sue for peace.
