tits curious fact" said a New Or
leans newspaper artist, that most il
Illustrators have a tendency to draw
themselves in their pictures. They do
it unconscously, and, unless their at
tention has been especially directed to
the subject, are apt to deny that any
thing of the kind occurs; but an exam
ination of the work of nearly all of the
well-known craftsmen will bear out
what I say. This singular trait" con-
tinued the speaker, sis to be observed
most frequently in the drawings of men
who turn out great many pictures for
reproduction and who depend chiefly
upon their ina gination for the figures.
AS long, of course, as an artist works
rigidly from q model he has no oppor-
tunity to slip in his own personality;
but when he centuries up a character
from his inner conscience, and especial
ly when that character is supposed to
be some one of approxima tely his own
age, the chances are two to one he
makes it look like himself, without be-
ing aware of what he is doing. Mr.
Gibson is firm believger in models
and nowadays rarely touches pen to pa
per unless one is standing before him;
but turn back to some of his earlier
work, when money and models were
not quite so plentiful, and you will find

OFFICERS AND PRIVATES.

How the Latter are Treated-Some
Representative Incidents.
Is it true, as charged by your cores
pondent, that regular army officers re-
gard private soldiers as "dogs?"
When I read his letter. was remind
ed Of an incident that / witnessed in the
Tampa Bay Hotel, in the days of the
Spanish war just before the sailing Of
the Santiago expedition. I was talking
there one day with gray-haired lieu
| tenant-colonel of the regular army,
when an elderly civilian, accompanied
| by a young man in the uniform of a
| private soldier, came up. 1t appeared
that the elderly civilian was an old
| friend of the Northumberland, for the
latter Immediately greeted him warmly
and shook his hand heartily, calling
him by name. Then the civilian indl-

he Is volunteer in the Michigan regi-
ment that has just come down here"
The colonel turned to the young man,
extended his hand and said. IT am
glad to see you; I'm sorry to say that
can't associate with you, and that I
can't include you in the invitation to
drink that I'm going to give your faith
er, but just the same I'm proud and
happy to make your acquaintance"
Then he shook the young private's hand
cordially, asked about his enlistment
and his regiment and remained in con-
versation with him some little time.
This, it may be said, was a really rep
Tesentative greeting under such condi-
tions-though some officers may not
have shaken the boys hand. 1t is per-
fectly true, and also perfectly
regular army do not associate
on social terms with any private
soldiers while they are private soldiers.
If they cannot associate with the pri-
Yates of their own regiment, they can
not with others, but because to do so
would be to discriminate invidiously
against their own men, which they will
not do under any circumstances. If
they show consideration to other SOL
diers that they deny to their own men,
they certainly lay themselves open to
fair complaint.
1t is safe to say that an officer in any
other regular army in the world than
ours would not have shown the same
degree of consideration for the young
volunteer that this American officer did;
but this officer, like all his brethren,
had regard for the circumstances in
such a case. He honored the young
man. and felt honest pride in greeting
HIM Such a notion as that he pos
sessed any social superiority to the son
of his old friend probably never en-
tered his head. 1t was simply a matter
of maintaining an invariable distinction
betWeen officers and men, for necessary
military purposes. While I was with
the army / came across several cases
in which regular army officers had sons
or nepheWs in the ranks / knew of one
case in which a Northumberland (soon
afterward a coloneD had his son as a
private in his own regiment. The colo
mel required from the son exactly the
same Difference, exactly the same 81
lence except when spoken to, exactly
the same salutes and standing position
in his presence, that he required from
any other soldier.-Listener in the Bos-

THE MESSENGER BOY"

The family of musical farces which has hitherto
numbered so many girls. at last counts boy The
Messenger Boy" offered for the first time in
this city at Dalys Theatre last night opening the
season of that house. 1t is the work as usual of
no less than six collaborators and they are the
same six who seem to make all the stage pieces of
this kind that made at all in England, men
whose tagging zeal and industry in cutting
out and putting together these pieces suggests six
little tailors. The whole production is essentially
OF the usual character. 1t may be remarked in
passing that there is stage tradition that the life
OF any particular fad IN comic entertainments is
years, and that the season now beginning is
the eighth of this of musical farce. the series
having begun with THE Gaety Girl" in 1891 The
music OF The Messenger Boy is quite on the ac-
customed level. That is to say. there are two or
three bits which catch the pleasantly and are
likely to be kept in mind for little while after the
curtain is down. while the rest is rich in cIatter and
noise. which suffices to mark the time for the
chorus to dance
The book is trihe above the average of such
things. of it's best merits is the negative ono

characterized of its predecessors, and IL has
to be admitted. too. that its exhibitions of excep-
tional cleverness are rather more widely scattered

of the whole company successfully in widely dis

LA BOHEME" IN ENGLISH.

Opera in English usually marks the fringe Of
the musical season in this city, either at its be-
ginning its end. That fringe is already here

season sounded at the Broadway Theatre and
gagement there. the first night having been post
poned from last Saturday account of the ma
tional bereavement The opera was Puccinis La
Boheme." which has become familiar frequent
ers of opera in this city in both the English and the
Italian version. The utter ineptitude of the sub
ject for operatic treatment is the striking on
repeated hearings. and is peculiarly enforced when
the work is in English. So too. is the gre
ness of the composers outfit of ideas for all the
certain superficial effect. La Boheme'' was not a
fortunate choice for the opening of the season.
The members of the company who made their
appearance last evening all strangers to this
public; but there a number of good voices
disclosed and the performance carried off with
rather more evidence of knowledge of operatic
technique the part of those I'm authority as well
as of most of the individual performers than has

Josephine Ludwig Musetta. The conductor

LOCAL STAGE AFFAIRS.

nor must lack of right feeling the part of the
workers be inferred from their continuance in their
various industries.

placed in particularly trying position-since many
persons regard them merely places of 'amuse-
ment,' and consider that they ought and all.

must earn their living by the stage, this institu
ton is as much business the shop of the
merchant or the field of the farmer, and class
or workers ought to be expected to make
singular and exceptional sacrifice in time of pub
Tic trouble. When business in general is suspended
that OF the theatres must also cease. In
1t has ceased already. Mr.. Hackett, at Wallack's s
Theatre, has decided to again till next
Friday night and in this decision he shows his
deep sense of the terrible afcton that has fallen
upon the country, and the awful solemnity of the
time. Most assuredy the public mind is not accord

occur this week little likely to attract atten-
tion.

COLER'S PLANS AND CHANCES.
While there was no discussion of Controller
Coler as possible candidate for Mayor. some
OF the members of the committee said the plans
Of Mr. Coler's friends in the Citizens Union to
create a stampede for him in the Citizens Union
convention looked threatening. Said one mem
ber of the committee:
1t looks as If Coler had bedevled the situation;
If his friends have control of the Citizens Union
convention they may reject the a1 weSne
day evening and bring the work of the conference
Coler's nomination. If he consented to run as a a
Citizens Union candidate Tammany would nave
virtual walkover.
Said another member of the committee:
1t is not to be believed that Mr.. Coler will consent
to be a candidate for Mayor, unless he can get the
Tammany nomination. even If he can control the

Coler would be candidate
CROKER HINTS AT CoLER
Tammany men at the Democratic Club last
evening heard, with apparent satisfaction, that
there was a possibility of the Citizens Union
being stampeded by Controller Coler. Richard
Croker said he was not prepared to talk about
Mr.. Coler as possible Tammany candidate for
Mayor When he told that Senator Platt
had said, Croker would not touch Coer with
a ten foot pole" Mr.. Croker INDUCED in mys-
terious smile and said, Plat seems to know my
mind better than l know 1t myself"
Are you still opposed to Mr.. Coer?" was
asked.
We'll" Mr.. Croker replied, sometimes cir
cumstances alter cases"
Some of the Tammany men at the club
seemed to think that Mr.. Croker was trying TO
create the impression that II Controller Coer
could capture the Citizens Union convention.
he might receive the regular Democratic nomi-
nation well
Mr.. Coler said yesterday that there was no
truth in a report that he had agreed TO run on
the Citizens Union ticket IL his friends could
secure his nomination for Mayor Il say once
for all that will not make any pledges to any
body" he added. II not in politics. | am

Colonel Willis l.. Ogden. chairman of the

ton for Mr.. Coler.'
