IlIn Test.

A dealer in pictures who makes 1t his
business to find as many new painters
as possible, both In this country and
abroad, WIS asked In regard to his
methods of selecting pictures to buy
He was very frank In his talk, and one
thing which he said Is shrewd enough
TO be worth quoting.
"of course" he said, with my expe-
rienee l am able to judge whether
there Is promise in painters work,
but | never buy with any idea of put
ting the painter on my list until have
seen the man and talked with him my
self. | always watch him closely, and
l never buy his pictures unless his eye
lights up when talk to him about his
work and about his profession"
The artist whose heart was really In
his work could not discuss It without
kindllng, and the man who did not
paint from the heart was not the one
whose pictures the dealer wanted.

LOCAL HISTORY.

In the fall OF 1886, at the caucus
meetings of the Democratic voters OF
Hunterdon county, there were three
candidates for sheriff. and it was Il
time of great political excitement.
The candidates were George b. Hol.
combe, of Lambertville; John Sine, OF
kingwood, and Samuel Clark, OF
/ Tew ksbury.
On the night previous to the caucus
meeting, handbills were circulated at
Mt Airy, Ringoes, Sergeantsville,
and scattered along the public roads
through West Amwell. East Amwell.
and Delaware township, Announcing
that Mr.. Sine had withdrawn as a
candidate for sheriff. These bills
caused considerable excitement among
the friends of Mr. Holeombe, who
believed they were forSeries (which
they werel, and ON the morning of
caucus, several gentlemen of Lambert
Vile went into those townships stating
their belief that Mr.. Sine had not
withdrawn. At Sergeantsville, DIR.
Samuel Lilly made an address to tho
voters to that effect
The county convention was held at
Pennington on the Monday following
Samuel Clark, of Tewksbury, was
chairman; and William L, Srope, of
kingweod, secretary of the conven-
ton. The vote was eanvassed and

The committee proceeded to the resi-
dence of Mr. Sine and held u long
conference with him, but failed to
convince him that the handbills did
not originate from the friends of Mr..
