PORTRAITS ON PIesKlN.
The Humble Pig Has Now Become Of
Artistic Worth.

Artistic Worth.
From Scotland and it's banks and
braes comes a proposition that is pic
turesque in conception, startling in
suggestion and brilliant in audacity.
The proposition aims at nothing short
of elevating the humble but necessary
pig to a position of artistic worth and
envied prominence. In brief, manu-
facturer of pigskin leather in Scotland
writes temptingly and alluringly of
the advantages and glittering posi-
bilities of tanned pigskin for portrait
painting. Says the tanner:
Our speciality here is the manufac-
ture of pigskins. We post you here
with copy of Glasgow Daily Mail with
notice respecting novel form of art we
have introduced, whereby pigskin is
appropriated for portrait painting. The
refracted rays of light on the rough
grain of the skin produce lifelike eff
feet not approached on canvas or other
artists material.
ct just strikes US that, Chicago be-
ing such centre for pigs and Million
aires, some of your fine art people
might care to take up this novelty.
Such a portrait would cost about
five guineas (s26.25) each here to a
merchant OF course, any subject can
be executed in the same way. For in
stance, from photograph this artist
could produce you any distinguished
citizen on pigskin. We give you the
idea for what it is worth and shall be
glad if it can be turned to mutual ae-
count.
Certainly we think this pigskin por-
trait idea would be fetching one in
Chicago, and we speak from experience
of the country"
Our Scotch tannery friend would
evidently like to see the hide of every
refractory, noisome and doomed pig at
the stock yard deity removed and in
due course appear in the homes of the
Chicago people bearing the faces of
our great men, prominent citizens,
family portraits or scenes from life,
&c.
Alas, however, exterior decoration
has been sacrificed by the Chicago
packers to interior decoration of the in
sides of the people. None of the pigs
marketed at the stock yards is skin
ned, but sold in segments, skin and
all. The pigskin portrait idea, how
ever, is thrown out by us for what it is
worth
An excellent portrait of Mr.. Glad
stone, on pigskin, was recently exhibit
ed in London. It was done by hot in
struments, practically burning the i'm
preston into leather and rendering the
portrait imperishable.

Perversitx of Inanimate Things.

Perversity of Inanimate Things.
This talk about inanimate things
taking matters into their own hands
and defying human intervention is all
bosh, said the Professor when he met
few of his German friends in Chene
grocery the other evening.
How about cards?" asked the par
ticularly large man who never stopped
putting at his pipe except to take a sip
of beer. ''They take matters into
their own hands on occasions, and you
cannot change them, try as you may
Nothing to it. Nothing to it at all. !"
See here, professor" interrupted the
man with wooden leg and an ugly
scar on the side of his face, explain
this to me. There was an engine on
the G. & P. that was blown up three
times and the boys called her the hoo
doc. The management ran her into
the works, had her partially rebuilt
and changed her number from 13 to
35. I took her then and the second
trip out she ran me halfway through
heavy passenger train, from the rear
That's how I lost so much of myself
During the whole time she was in COM
mission there was not another engine
on the road that got into trouble. I
say it was not all chance, and that the
cantankerous engine was possessed Of
the devil"
ut seems to me that the quality of
our tobacco is deteriorating since the
new revenue bill was passed." was all
that the professor had to say.

Among the great central figures of the

so will the pages of history associate the
names of Lee, Longstreet and Jackson, com

bellion.
Gen. James LonSstreet, the last survivor
of this illustrious group of leaders and COM

C., aud although 70 years of age, is now hale

stating that he had been using this wonder

his own personal knowledge and experience
of its marvellous curative powers, he recon

1t is a fact that the spring is the best sea
son and earliest time of the year in which to
get well. 1t is also an acknowledged and ac-
cepted fact that almost everybody needs and
should take a spring medicine. Now there
fore is the time for the sick to get well; now
is the time to take DR.. Greenes Nervun
blood and nerve remedy and be cured, as you
surely will be cured if you take this grandest
and most highly recommended remedy in
the world. As spring medicine to
strengthen and tone up the nerves, purify
and enrich the blood invigorate brain
muscle and body, as well as regulate the
action of the stomach liver and kidneys,
Dr. Greene's Nervura blood and nerve
remedy surpasses anything the world has
ever known. In fact, DR.. Greenes Nervura
is the ideal spring medicine, the remedy
which outclasses all others, the remedy which
everybody calls for and insists upon having
at this season-the one sure medicine upon
which the people depend to give them health,
strength vim and vigor.

NOVEL TAX COLLECTION.
Chicago Banks Made to Pay Up in
True Holdup Style,
REFUSED TO ACCEPT RECEIPTS,

The Banks Had Applied For an In
junction Restraining the Collection,
which Injunction Had Been Refused.
The Tax Gatherer Acted Promptly.
Chicago. March 9.-Several Chicago
bankers had novel experience with
tax collectors yesterday Two men en-
tered the First National bank just be
fore noon and went directly to the Of
flee of the president. without cera-
mony they addressed the Vice Presi-
dent. d. r. Forgan, and informed him
they wanted $S5273.12 in cash as quickly
as he could produce it. They told Mr.
Forgan that unless he paid over the
money without delay they would shut
the doors of the bank and help them
selves. 1t was a case of the collection
of taxes under a decision of the su-
perior court, which refused to sustain
an injunction asked for by six banks
against South Town Collector Ernst
The bill sought TO enjoin the collection
on the ground that the assessments
were excessive and fraudulent. The
banks affected were the First National
Fort Dearborn National, Northwestern
National, Globe National, Bankers Ma
tional and National Bank Of America.
The decision Of Judges Shepard and
Freeman was pronounced yesterday
morning Efforts to notify e. b Toll
man, counsel for the banks, failed,
while the attorney for the South Town
collector John ]. Rooney, secured at
once a certified copy of the courts
order. Armed with this copy and with
special bailiffs at their heels, Collector
nd ha
to the First National bank and de-
manded immediate payment Of the tax.
Mr.. Forgan was astonished, and led his
visitors into the office of the banks at
torney, Orville Peclkham.
This is news to me-" said Mr.. Peck
ham. You will allow me at least to
communicate with my associate So
llcitors before going any further?"
Collector Ernst replied that he would
levy on the banks property instantly
unless the money was forthcoming and
close the banks doors.
I'VE have enough men to close this
bank" said Attorney Rooney.
After consultation Mr.. Peckham ad-
vised the payment of the tax rather
than risk such a disturbance to busi-
ness as might follow. Collector Ernst
was given $S5,27312, with due notice
that his right to take the same was de.
MED.
All that was required was a sight OF
the warrant and little explanation tC

| National paid over $13,2S615, the For
Dearborn National $9,72639, the Globe
National 14,39O14, the Northwestern
National $23 7S6.72 and the American
National $19, 365.97.

accept a receipt from Collector Erns
showing that the money had beer
