Portable income derived from the business.
His position is unique. This course is not
uncommon with artists. but such BUSH
ness association invariably destroys the
art instinct and the artist ceases TO paint
anything of real value. Branson is with
out ambition, either in art or business, but
his enjoyment of painting is as deep as
that o; any man who ever lived. That he
has surprising skill in some directions is
well known to all but himself. Ii is doubt
fuI IL il ever occurs to him to compare his
work with that OF others; probably that
would seem to him 4 waste of time. but in
the presence of a great picture or some
impressive and paintable scene il is per-
fectly apparent how exact is his Judgment
and how keen his appreciation of beauty in
form and color. His postic sense is deli
cate and refined and his enjoyment of life
obscure genius is not so small a matter
TO anyone as il is TO himself.

history of the now famous negro photo

ED. HIGGINS HAS
FRIGHTFUL FALL.
Dashed From House Top to
Ground Below.

Ed. Higgins is tinsmith IN the
employ of Custer & Richards. He
was working on Broad street Fri
day and met with an accident that
might have taken his life.
Higgins was working upon a one
story roof OF Broad street residence,
ana in moving about clung to a
chimney for support. This structure
gave way while he was holding on it,
and he lost his balance, falling from
the roof to the ground, many feet
below.
That he was not killed outright is
passing strange, ana that no bones
were broken seems rAmarkable. He
was taken to his Fayette street home
in a cab where a careful examination
was made. His body was found
badly bruised and one leg severely
wrenched, but fortunately there was
no evidence of internal injuries. The
indications point to his early re-
covery.

To Make shad Profitable.

The fishermen of New Castle will
see to it that Delaware shad cause
no more glutS in the fish market as
heretofore. Instead of overstocking
the markets local fishermen will hold
their Shad for the Winter trade, when
by smoking the fish they can be sold
at a IS per cent. profit.
There is talk of another company
of fishermen being formed there be-
fore Spring, which with the Fisher
mems Protective Association, will
control all the shad that will De taken
from the river. In this way local
fishermen can hold the New York
and Philadelphia retailers to their
prices, and when the retailers refuse
to buy, the fishermen can store the
fish for winter use. Therefore the
smoking of shad promises to revolu-
tiCnize the shad fishing business and
it is we'll that it does, for so low
has the wholesale price of fish been
the past few years that there has
been little or no profit in it for the
men who drag the nets.

A HALT CALLED ON
SECRET DIVORCE.
New Jerseys Chancellor Puts a
Stop to Evasive Practise.

Jersey City, Dec. 1O.-Chancellor
Magic to-day announced that divorce
cases in future must be heard before
Vice Chancellors publicly instead of
before advisory masters secretly.
~ am opposed to secret divorce
hearing' announced the Chancellor.
Il believe that the more public we
make divorce cases the BETTER
The records of the Chancery Clerk S
Office for the year 1900 show a large
increase in the number of divorce
cases in this State. Over 80 per cent.
of the $50 or more suits started In
the last year have been on the ground
of desertion. A majority OF the de-
sertion cases, in fact, nearly all of
them, have been begun in the i'm
mediate vicinity of Jersey City or
Camden.
The reason for this is that in New
York and Pennsylvania desertion does
not entitle person to a divorce,
while in this State husband or wife
who has been deserted for two years
can secure an absolute decree. Many
persons from neighboring States
move to New Jersey in order to OBJ
tain divorces.

BIDS FOR WARSHIPS.
Among the Number to be Con-
structed is the New Jer-
sey-Were Eight
Bidders.

Washington, Dec. 8.-Bids were
opened at the Navy Department to-
day for the construction of five new
battleships and six armored cruisers.
aggregating a total displacement of
154, 200 tons, and comprising the lar
gest consignment of material for the
navy ever contracted for at a single
bidding.
The three battleships authorized by
the act of March, 1899, were never
contracted for, owing to delays in the
procurement of armor bids; in the
completing of designs and controversy
as to whether the new superimposed
turretS should be used in their con-
struction. Ianbility to reach a sat
isfactory conclusion in regard to
sheathing delayed construction of the
three armored cruisers authorized by
the same act. These points have
been adjusted.
The five new battleShips are to be
named after the States of Pennsyl-
vania, New Jersey, Georgia, Virginia
and Rhode Island.
There were eight bidders to-day.
All of the bids were within the limit
Of cost fixed by the appropriation.
There were number of omissions
from the specifications in many cases,
hoWveer, so that careful inspection
will be necessary to determine which
of the bids are actually the lowest.
The indications on the face of the
bids are that the successful bidders
for one or more vessels will be the
Newport News Company, the Cramps,
the Fore River Works of MasSachu-
settS, the Union Iron Works of San
Francisco, and perhaps Moran Bros.
4 Co., of Seattle, Wash.
