GOVERNOR ROGERS RESPONDS.
State Of Washington to Participate in
&ha e. I nnis Eair

State Of Washington to Participate in
the st. Louis Fair.
Tacoma Wash, Dec. I1.-Elmer Il.
Johnston, formerly executive commits
sioner for Washington at the Pan
American exposition, was yesterday ap-
pointed by Governor Rogers to work UP
interest among board of trade and
kindred organizations of this state in
the preparation of an immense Wash
ington exhibit for the st. Louis EXPOSE
ton in 1903. The governor believes that
the state will undoubtedly desire to
exhibit its resources at st. Louis. and
as the time will be short after the leg
islature convenes until the fair opens,
the idea was conceived of getting the
exhibition prepared now in anticipa-
ton of the desires OF the legislature.
The governor asks that all CONNER
cial organizations cooperate with Mr..
Johnston, that expense and time might
be saved after the appropriation IS Sc
cured.
Nothing in the appointment OF Mr..
Johnston guarantees him compensation
for his work at this time. There Is no
doubt, however, that the legislature,
which convenes in January, 1903, will
make an appropriation Of $4,000 to
100000 toward defraying expenses al
ready incurred and completing a
worthy exhibit of the varied resources Of
the state.
General sentiment turnout the state
favors the erection of large state
building at st. Louis. Mr.. Johnston is
an enthusiastic man about it and will
start his work Immediately. He was
appointed as executive commissioner at
Buffalo when the affairs of this state
there were in a chaotic condition. and
rapidly transformed them into order
and system, with the result that many
new settlers are already coming to
Washington as a result of the state es-
hibit at Buffalo. 1t is intended to du-
plicate this work on large scale at the

SACRED PAINTING UNEARTHED.
Capt. TarIton Tells How He Found an
Old Picture of the Mother Mary.

Capt. Tarlton Tells How He Found an
Old Picture Of the Mother Mary.
Indianapolis, Ind, Dec. II. - Capt.
Charles Tarlton, formerly of the Thirty
sixth Infantry, while on active duty in
the Philippines, came into possession of
Il picture that has been appraised as be-
ing worth not less than $1,000. The pic
ture is portrait of the Mother Mary
c.asping to her breast the dead form OF
the Christ. 1t is painted on copper
plate eight inches wide and twelve inch
as long, and is from the brush Of an ar
t:st of the sixteenth century. According
to artists and experts who have viewed
the work 1t is by the hand Of a Span
ish master, and, tho the identity Of the
artist has not yet been established. it is
said to be the product of a master.
Mystery and romance surround the
discovery of the ancient work. 1t was
found in the depths of subterranean
passage, locked in a vault built in the
solid masonry. Here, 1t Is presumed, it
had lain for centuries, undisturbed and
forgotten. The circumstances attending
the discovery OF the masterpiece are re-
markable. Capt. Tarlton, at the head of
his company, in 1900. was in command
of town in southern Luzon. He was
ordered to search for arms believed to
be somewhere concealed about the pueb-
10, and in the search that followed Stun
bled across the subterranean passage
that led from a church to convent near
by. While exploring this underground
channel he uncovered indications that
pointed to vault in the masonry. and,
instituting search found the massive
door that hid the opening. This he burst
open, and, gaining an entrance. found
on the inside number of valueless pa
pers-ancient records for the most part
and, securely wrapped in oil skins,
canvas and leather. the picture of the
Mother Mary with the dead Jesus rest
ing in her arms.
