crown patterns. There are relatively
fewer using arched crowns than there
were last year, according to the show

handle bars and seat posts, which were
introduced several years ago with only
partially satisfactory results, are seen

bars or saddle posts by means of the

OF directors of the Art Association. showing
the interest or the artists and giving sug-
g~estions as to the prospective site. building.
pictures for the museum and the art school.
IL was the general idea that the gallery OF
pictures should represent the American
school OF modern painting, and that the eff
fort should be to make IL famous as such.
Only one artist mentioned a site. and that
was the Talbot place, eat Pennsylvania and
Sixteenth streets. Another thought that
each part OF the building should represent
an art. a. well as painting and sculpture.
IL was also the idea that rare and valuable
works OF art and the "old masters be ac-

LEAPED FROM A BRIDGE
FREDERICK BRUNING, THIRTY
YEARS OLD, COMMITS, SUICIDE.
was n Passenger on a West Norris
street Car, but BOIted
from IL.

Frederick Bruning, thirty years of age,
who lived with his mother and sister at No.
S45 South Meridian street, committed sui
eide by drowning about s o'clock yesterday
morning, jumping into the river from the
Morris-street bridge. Bruning was riding
on a street car in company with a neighbor,
Louis Engleking, a travelling drug sales
man. When the car reached the center Of
the first span. without warning Bruning
dashed from the car to the walk used by
foot passengers, placed his hands upon the
railing and sprang into the river. The po-
lice were Immediately notified and Captain
Kruger ard Sergeant Hylsnd hurriedly
drove to the place, where. with hooks, the
captain succeeded in catching the body.
Shortly afterwards an undertaking wagon
drove up, and with the aid of other hooks
the body was taken from the water and
removed TO the morgue. The body was
found to be somewhat bruised and cut
when taken from the water, and 1t Is
thought the dead man in going down struck
some of the Jagged rocks at the bottom of
the pier, though it is not believed this
caused his death.
Bruning was we'll known in the city and
for a time had worked in Chicago, return
ing here about Jan. ], since which time he
has had but little employment Thursday
Engleking noticed that his friend was act
ing strangely. So much impressed was he
that he feared to leave his friend to make a
trip on the road, as he had planned. Yes
terday morning Bruning expressed a desire
to attend a horse sale at the stock yards,
and the two men took a car about f:U
o'clock at Illinois and South streets. Brun-
ing refused to take a seat in the car. as
suggested by Engleking, and stood upon the
rear platform. AS the car neared the bridge
Bruning became excited, but said nothing.
As the car neared the center OF the bridge
his excitement increased. Nothing is known
as to the cause of his actions, the family
being in good circumstances and there be-
ing no cause for worriment on account of
unemployment. For some time Bruning
had acted in a manner which attracted the
attention OF his folks but no Importance
was attached to II. Friends of the family
say the mans mind has been gradually
giving away for nearly a year, though this
is not corroborated by the mother and sis
