FURTHER DISCUSSION
OP THE MASTERS OF
THE FRENCH SCHOOL.

After some strenuous effort David |
gained the academy prize which so.
cured to him a period of study at
Rome. Here he found newly |
awakened interest in all the phases
OF classicism and entered enthusiast |
ically upon the study of the antique. !
As he progressed and his power was
more and more acknowledged he COM
pared himself to Poussin, bat he Is
more like Simon Mantegna. Poussin
had the ancient spirit while David
only succeed in grasping the antique
manner: Poussin responded to the
Christian element that was so strong
a factor in early Italian art, but
David was pronounced pagan as de-
veloped through French inlidellty:
Poussin was cold and severe through
his intellectual ascendency; David
ked life aud color because his rule
was truth first and beauty after-
wards" He first decided what truth
be would express and then deter
mined just what moGe of antique
treatment would give to it the,proper
number of beautiful elements.
But David had much more in
fluence upon his own time. Under
the patronage Of Louis XVI he in
stituted oil sorts of Roman pageantry.
The drama assisted in the fresh i'm
petus and so great was the interest in
the stronger, cleaner influence thus
set in motion that the pronounced in.
decency into which art had fallen
was no longer possible.
AS a member of the convention
which condemned the king, David
voted against the friend who had 80
generously aided him az well as the
Roman Academy which had been
such a factor in his growth. This
was characteristic of the man. He
had convictions and was true to them.
His patriotic pictures had heretofore
followed themes from Roman history,
but now in the revolutionary spirit
which impelled him, such pictures as
the Last Moments of Lepelletier"
and the death of Maratn claimed all
his power.
Thrown into prison upon the fall of
Robespierre he responded to the old
motives again upon his release and
produced two of his most remarkable
works, "The Sabine Women" and
"Leonidas." Napoleon, on coming
into power, rewarded his allegiance
by the highest honors and Napoleon
Crossing the Alps" and Distribution
of the Eagles" and the Coronation"
are the best results of this period.
But he died In exile, for upon the
second Restoration he was sent
to Brussels where he refused
special artistic preferment in the feel
ing that 1t was impossible to serve
any other country than his own.
"OHly l could paint Leonidas at
Thermopylse" he said with bis last
breath, and for fifty years the skill
he had attained dominated in large
measure all European schools. But
II he had done nothing more than tc
bring to French painting his superior
technical excellence in correct, severe
drawing, that would;have been avery
great work. Accurate form is always
a stead fast and exalted factor in Tho
production of nobility and better ar
is always conducive TO better life.

Harry Olson, who had taken hold of the
rope which set the machine going, some
thing snapped, and an instant later the
elevator crashed to the basement.

THE BYLBR INQUIRY.
New Jersey Committee Makes n Pre-
Iiminnry Report.


Trenton, March 81. - The legislative
committee which is investigating the
State Industrial School For Girls held a
session. The only witness called was
Miss Frances Day. She explained the
entries in the books of the school in her
handwriting, which were In apparent
conflict with her testimony that girls
were not put in dungeons by Mrs. Nc
Fadden. Miss Day eontradicted Mrs.
Eylers statement that anklets were not
used on Sadie Wiseman.
The committee then took a recess, and
when the house assembled Chairman
Mungle for the committee made pre-
iminary report. The report stated that
.he committee had heard much conflict
ing testimony and had heard many wit
uesses and would be unable to complete
it's work before the final adjournment Of
the legislature. Permission was granted
the committee to sit after the adjourn
ment of the legislature and to make its
report to the governor.
The committee, while expressing no
opinion ms to the conflicting testimony,
thought that there was much that could
be remedied in the management of the
school and therefore submitted bill for
the legislatures approval. This bill
changed the name of the school to the
State Home For Girls and terminates

New Governor of Guam.
Washington, March 81. = Lieutenant
Commander Seaton Schroeder, ut pres
ent secretary of the naval inspection
board. has been selected to succeed Cap
tain Leary as naval governor of the is.
land of Guam. Commander Schroeder
had applied for and been promised the
governorship of the island of Tutuila, but
the administration of the affairs of Guam
is believed to be more desirable, and
many of the difficulties in the establish
ment of government have already been
removed through the energy of Captain
Leary.
The navy department expects great
future for Guam in a commercial way.
Besides being a naval station, all the Pa
cific army transports are expected here
after to touch at the island to and from
Manila. The projected Pacific cable will,
it is thought soon be established, and
this will attract merchant vessels, so
that Guam will become regular port of
call for the shipping in the eastern seas.
Commander Schroeder expects to sail
on the Solace from San Francisco for
Guam about the middle of May and will
relieve Captain Leary before July next
1t is stated at the navy department that
Captain Leary is coming home at his
own request, and his action is also in
conformity with the policy the depart.

changes in the command of these naval
stations in the interest Of the health anC

Gains Point, and Buying Was
Better Than for Several
weeks---Amer1canS Sc-
curities in London.

Yesterday was an old time market day.
Stocks were firm and buying brisk.
Nearly everything on the exchange
gained a point or two. Yesterdays
market told great deal as to what is
likely to happen in the immediate
future. The short interest is pretty vel
cleared up, and if prices are carried
higher it will be owing chiefly to an in
crease in new buying orders from the
outside. Outside business yesterday
was very good and it may increase more
easily from this level. The feeling is
moderately bullish on the situation, so
far as the prospects of temporary
speculative advance is concerned.
There promises to be no further dis
surhance as it locks now in the money
market, and while the currency bill is
not an important issue, the market
would be acting naturally if advancing
merely out of sympathy with the time OF
year. 1t is thought though that prices
cannot hold this advance and are bound
to come back to the present or below the
present end. Everything depends on
the next day or two on the attitude OF
the public If they are bought in any
considerable numbers, continuance of
breath and activity may be expected for
some little time. 1t would be we'll in
such case to go long on the steel shares
which are the only ones that have not
had much OF rise.

CONDITION OF CUBA.
A Talk With General Nune1, Civil
Governor of Havana.

Philadelphia, March 21. - General
Emilio Nunez, civil governor of the PROV
incc of Havana, is in this city on n
months leave of absence. General Mi
nez's home for IS years before he was
made governor of Havana was in Philu-
delphia.
In speaking of Cuba and its people he
said:
"The condition of the country financial
ly, industrialy, politically and in every
way is showing marked Improvement
The tobacco crop this year will be as big
as ever it was before the war, aggrcgat-
ing 100000 bales, valued at $24,000,000.
On account of the extreme dry season
the sugar crop will be small, but the
planters hope to do better next year.
'The great trouble in every branch Of
industry and trade in Cuba is the scar
city OF working capital. Planters whose
estates were damaged during the war
have not the means to repair these losses,
and this is true in every line of business.
There are excellent opportunities for
American capitalists. Havana has al
ready shoe factory and brewery op.
Grated by Americans, and every branch
of manufacture awaits development. To
bacco and sugar plantations also require
ready cash to be worked to advantage"
When asked if Americans were en-
braeing these opportunities, General MI
nek replied:
'Slowly. The trouble is it seems to BIZ
| the opinion among Americans that condi
tions in Cuba are unsettled and will re-
main so until the form of government be
comes decided upon. Such is not thu
case.''
Referring to the visit of Secretary Roo
to Cuba, the general said it had an cH
cclent effect in helping to restore ii feel
ing of confidence in the United State
and her promises, which the people thor
believe will be kept in every respect.
