ARRESTED AT LAST.
James Van Dusen Brought to City
by Constable Rosencrans.

Alderman Howe, on Aug. 10, issued
warrants for the arrest of James Van
Dusen and a certain man Coyne, on
the information of William Michaels.
All the parties are of Newton town
ship, and Michaels charged the defend
ants with stealing a calf, killing It and
selling 1t to a Moosc butcher. Coyne
was arrested and lodged in the county
jail, where, owing to his crazy actions,
he was pronounced insane.
Van Dusen, however, escaped and has
been in hiding ever since. He has the
reputation of being idle and shiftless.
Yesterday Amzi Rosencrans, the con-
stable of Newton township, assisted by
Michael McNally and others, brought
Van Dusen to the city, having sue
ceeded in locating him in a house, where
he had taken refuge. 1t was the home
OF friend of his, by name Blanche
Smith and after much trouble the off,
Ger succeeded in arresting him.
The alderman committed him to the
county iail, until such time as he can
give him a hearing. When searched,
Van Dusen had in his possession d
loaded siX-shoter and n murderous-
looking knife. An information was
therefore sworn out against him on the
charge of carrying concealed weapons.

Those who missed the third lecture in
the art series at st. Luke's parish hall
last night. missed one of the finest en-
tertanments, to say nothing of the
value in an educational direction, ever
given in this city. The stcreopticon
arrangements were so perfected as to
leave no room for complaint, and tho
pictures shown were specially adapt
able to the screen. where the luminos-
ity and atmosphere Of certain works
were most admirably counterfeited.
Professor Van Laer's subject was
"The Barbizon School" He began by
devotng much time to Jean Francois
Millet and concluded with Corot. In
succession. Eousseau, Breton, Diaz and
Trovo" were named and their master
pieces portrayed. The first pictures
shown were excellent photographs OF
scenes about Barbizon, the street view
being so charming as to really be mis-
taken for a reproduction of a Millet,
whose early privations and struggles
were graphically told. The marvellous
contrast in the prices received by the
great artist was noted, in the fact that
THE Sewers" was finally sold for $780,
00O 1.-THE Cleaners" for $50, 900 and "The
Angelus" for the fabulous sum of S110,-
000
