Quite q Contrast.

The contrast between the two ma
tions stands out very clearly in con-
nection with the Vizcaya, says Ira
Nelson Hollis in the November "Atlan-
tic The torpedo boat Ericsson ran
close alongside of her, and sent a small
boat to take off all that were alive of
the crew. A few boats from the Iowa
assisted. The Vizcaya was. on fire fore
and aft, the ammunition on board was
exploding, and the guns that had been
left loaded were going Off one after an
other in the intense heat, to say moth
ing of the proximity Of the shore. The
position of the little craft has been de-
scribed as perilous in the extreme. Our
men risked their lives repeatedly to
help their fallen enemy; but no sooner
We're the Spaniards transferred to the
deck of the Ericsson than they urged
immediate withdrawal without regard
to their comrades who had been left
behind. To the honor of our navy,
Lieutenant Ushur remained until every
living being had been rescued from the
burning ship. A similar scene was en-
acted around the two torpedo boat de-
stroyers It was a case of mad panic
on the one side, and of perfect cool
ness on the other. One officer OF the
Vizcaya afterward stated on board the
Iowa that they were obliged to close
the gun ports on the disengaged sloe
of the ship to prevent the men from
jumping overheard rather than face the
American gun-fire.

Warwick Lane.

On the right hand side of Newgate
street are various streets and courts
leading into Paternoster Row. Of
these, Warwick and Ivy Lanes, Panyer
Alley and Lovel's Court merit the at
tention of the lover of literary and his
torical antiquities Warwick Lane,
long the abode of butchers and tallow-
chambers, but now chiefly occupied by
printers and stationers, took its name
from the inn or house of the celebrated
Warwick, the king-maker. Stow men,
tions his coming to London in the FAM
Gus convention of 1853, with 600 men,
all in red jackets, embroidered with
ragged slaves before and behind, ard
that he was lodged in Warwick Lane;
''in whose house there was often six
oxen eaten at a breakfast, and every
taverne was full of his meate, for hee
that had any acquaintance in that
house, might have there so much of
sodden and roaste meate as he could
pricke and carry upon long dagger"
The memory of the Earl was long pre-
served by a small stone statue, placed
in the side-front of a tobacconist's at
the corner of this lane; and there is a
public house which has the Earfs head
for it's sign, but which bears the name
Of the more or less legendary Guy,
Earl of Warwick" whose fame has
outlasted that of the ''king-maker. =

Value of Art Schools.

The most important channel through
which the wise and unwise wisdom OF
the time can influence, strengthen ana
inhibit the creative power of art, Is art
education in the schoolroom. says Pro-
fessor Hugo Munsterberg in the No
vember Atlantic" Millions of chill
dren receive there the strongest decf-
sive influence for esthetical attitude,
millions Of children have there the
most immediate contact with the world
of the visible arts and mold there the
sense of refinement, of beauty, of har-
mony. Surely the drawing teacher can
have, an Incompatible influence on the
esthetic spirit of the country, fan
greater than criticists and millionaire
purchasers, greater even than the pro-
fessional art schools. The future bat
ties against this country's greatest enc
my, vulgarity, will be fought largely
with the weapons which the drawing
teachers supply to the masses. Who
ever has attended their meeting y OF
examined the exhibitions of school
room work, knows that they do not
lack enthusiasm, industry. and that
their Importance in the educationa
system grows rapidly.
