Art and Anthracite.

If what have written thus far reads
like a jeremiade, it is fair to say that,
in the opinion of many who have to
live in it, the soft coal smoke is not so
black as painted. Your true Pitts
burger glOries in his city's SCOT, for it
means business, prosperity, comfort
rs one goes along, and opportunity to
escape by and by.
Great artists from abroad are apt to
take sides with him. The soft coal
towns have what American landscape
generally lacks-atmosphere and aerial
perspective. Our Eastern cities-New
York In especial-have always been
distinguished by an almost disagree.
able clarity and brilliance. Everything
looks fresh. One who came recently
from a Western city to Boston said
that he was impressed much as a
miner would be who should be brought
straight out OF a coal shaft into a
theatre. The glitter was astounding
In Chicago and other soft coal cities the
Interplay of smoke and sunlight daily
gives color such as has rarely been
seen in our untinged air. This is the
sort OF color that Svend Svensen revels
mover all haze Of burnt sienna hue
and on sidewalk or snow the delicate
purple shadows. The gold and copper
Of the afternoon light is often tropical
IN its fullness. We shall see greater
glOries, even II We pay larger laundry

There is a movement on foot to erect
a monument on the outer point o.
Cape Cod to commemorate the adop
tion of the Pilgrim compact Of govern
ment. The Pilgrim compact was prob
ably the earliest charter Of a demo
cratic government adopted by the peo
pie, known to the world. A rugged
Obelisk, 200 feet in height, placed upoE
an eminence on the outermost point Of
Cape Cod, whetc all passing and re
passing at sea may see it, will be, it il
thought, fitting memorial Of such ?
landmark Of history.

Judge Was Annoyed
Old Gentleman Had Lived Too Long to Enjoy
Playing Poker for the Drinks.
W~NN~N~~~

The late Judge Treat was q gentle
man OF the old school, and held by
:he manners and customs Of the rap
IDLY disappearing code of a former
generation. An amusing story of his
views on what he sometimes char
acteriZed, with more Of humor than
Oh cynicism, as the degenerate meth
DDS OF a decadent day, is told by his
friends in Rochester. The Judge was
joyfully admitted to membership in
pne OF the most exclusive clubs in that
city, and soon after his election ap-
peared at the clubhouse and began to
make himself accustomed to his sur
roundings. He wandered from room
TO room, and at last passed into the
apartment reserved for cards. Three
or four tables were filled up, and the
Judge stood by and watched the game.
Suddenly he started preciDitately
toward the door, and, going down
stairs, met one of the board Of gov.
ernors.
Il beg your pardon, sir" said the
Judge with dignity and elaborate
courtesy, Il would like to obtain a
little information from you, IL you
:an spare me the time without incon.
venience."
The club officer was delighted to
answer any question.
well, SIR" the Judge began, 81 am

which this club is run. am a new
member, sir, and feel that such should
be my first duty. was passing
through the cardroom just now, sir
and paused beside a table at which

But, my dear" began the club
offcer, raising his hand deprecating.
