A PASSION FOR PEWTER.
Artists Are Modelling Their Most
Beautiful Designs in This PliabIe

Artists Are Modelling Their Most
beautiful Designs in This PIiabIe
Metal.
New York, Dec. s--There Is a vertable
passion for pewter in Paris just now; pew
ter made into all the knick-knackery that
we have for the past few years been seeing
in silver. It n even beginning to be much
in evidence in this country, and trihes
made of it will undoubtedly be among the
novel and acceptable gifts at Christmas.
There is about pewter a softness and plia-
bility which makes Il a fascinating nate
rial with which to model and therefore,
besides its use for small pieces, artists in
Paris are working out some OF their best
designs In IT, In fact reduced figures from
life and after the antique are being ex-
hibited along with those of bronze and
plaster. The one In pewter that received
honorable mention at the last salon was
called 1.-THE Creole" a charmingly sym
pathetic bit and one that would grace any
drawing room.
Smaller pieces. happily within reach of
many, are bonbonieres, trays and ash re-
ceivers, mugs, plates and small figures.
An of these are presented In innumerable
shapes and designs. The greater number
Of them are modelled after antique designs
1.-THE nuer-de-lis Of the Bourbon house be-
ing one Of the most popular The dainty

wreathes and hanging baskets of flowers
and the double LIS OF Louis XIV are also
much seem
Collectors OF mugs are being made happy
by this revival of the use of pewter, and
little short Of madness Is about regarding
the number and rarity of those seen at
informal evening parties or at other times
decorating the sidewalks Of dining rooms.
The plates also are mostly seen as wall
decorations, and produce a stunning effect
when wen hung against a brilliant back
ground.
II is not difficult to keep these pewter
ornaments clean. A good rubbing with
chamois every fortnight Is all that is nee
essary. It Is not desirable for them to
have the shining luster Of silver; the tones
of pewter should be soft and gray.
For a novel holiday gift hardly anything
newer or OF more interest can beSrecom-
mended than a pewter bonbonere. AS Is
true Of ell small boxes their usefulness is
very great. There Is always room for one
more. On the writing desk or bureau
they hold innumerable varieties of tribes,
where IL is now customary to place them
instead of as formerly in the pocket and
filed with sweets.

. Asto the promises the Republicans
made ia the campaign, not single

The LsADER speaks without parti-

only gives voice TO what every candid

fact
The faction in the Republican
party, it must be admitted, was the
chief contributor TO this result, and
yet IL is an open question whether the
territory was not really the beneficiary
of these irreconcilable factions, for
had they not existed, no one can meas
