GREAT PICTURES.
DR.. Search Gives Most Interesting
Address About Them.

Another large audience assembled
hear Professor Search's lecture on
"The Greatest Pictures in the World. -
Mr.. Search has spent N UGH time in the
great art galleries of Europe and
speaks with the graphic description
that comes only from the eye witness.
According to his estimate, the greatest
pictures in the world are Guido's
Aurora, Rembrandt's Sortie of the
Civic Guard (often called the Night
Watch), Titan's Assumption of the
Virgin, Ruben's Descent from the
ception, Leonardo da Vinci's Last
Michael Angeles Judgment, Raphael 8
fguration.
| the elements necessary to make a great
picture and how all the parts must
be blended together in perfect har-
mony, and to reinforce with all the
accentuation of united contribution
the central thoughts which must stand
out vigorous and distinct. Corot
was the great painter of nature. whose
| landscapes are full of blended beauty.
Then came Millet, who portrayed SO
vigorously but picturesquely the rug
ged peasant life of France, Rosa
Bonheur, Troyon and Landseer were
called on for their exquisite interpre-
| tations of animal life; and then the
| lecturer turned to Rembrandt and
Van Dyck for their wonderful depic-
tion of human faces. Leonardo da
Vincis "Mona Lisa was presented
las the greatest human face ever
painted; and Rembrandt's "School
of Anatomy" was used as the most
wonderful picture in art in representa-,
ton of the visible workings of the
human mind Da. Vinci's last
Supper" is a matchless study in
grouping and yet all unity preserved
by the five groups being tied together
by the crossing of the hand. This
picture is said to be the most wonder.
full one in the world in the study Of
the human hand, which after all il
only the projected mind.
The lecturer then rapidly conducted
his audience through the great Louvre
gallery and portrayed the beauties Of
Murillo's immaculate Conception.
The story of the "Stolen Christ" by
thieves. cutting the Christ child
from st. Anthony's Dream was also
effectively told. Then the audience
was transported to tine Dresden
gallery the home of the 'Sistine
Madonna. The lecture closed with al
interesting description of a visit tt
the studio of Hoffman, the painter o.
"Christ in the Temple. - and with 6
graphic Characterization of the
"Sistine Madonna, which is almost
universally regarded as the creates
ipicture in the world.
Tonight Professor search will lectur,

he regards as the best lecture in tn,

CASE DISMISSED.
Col. Chase Did Not Appear to Prose
cute Newspaper Men,

case for criminal libel against Joseph
Tomlinson and Charles M. Day, pub
fishers of the Argus Leader, brought
on complaint of Col. W. Fl. Chase,
was this afternoon dismissed on mo-

ground that in his Judgment nc cause
of action existed against the defend

MAY VACCINATE.
State Board OF Health may Insist on
Same of Railway Employees.

DR.. 81. M. Bracken, secretary of the
state board of health, and the surgeons
of the railways running out of st.
Paul and Minneapolis Saturday held a
conference in the Office of the state
board of health, 515 Pioneer Press
building. The meeting was held for
devising means by which the spread
of smallpox among the trainment
might be restricted.
The concensus OF opinion as to the
best method of regulating the matter
seemed to favor compulsory vaccina
tion of all employees. The board of
health for some time has been agita-
ting the requirement of vaccination as
a prerequisite to employment not only
in railway work but in numbering and
other exposed occupations. The rail
way companies at times have promised
to compel the vaccination of employees
and some have partially enforced such
a rule but there has been no concert
ed action in that direction.
The companies it is thought will
receive the suggestion of vaccination
as a requisite for employment more
readily because of the experience of
the last year and it is not improbable
that some recommendation along that
line will be made The matter of
compulsory vaccination of the lumber
men will be taken up by the board
with the lumber companies.
The weekly report of smallpox in
Minnesota issued by the state board of
health shows 1858 new cases in forty
counties and seventy localities. ST.
Paul has six cases and minneapolis
ten out CT total of thirty eight in
Hennepin county. Duluth has twelve
out of total of sixteen in st. Louis
county. Staples, Todd county, has
thirty-one cases. Gordon in the same
county has eleven cases. Scott county
has twenty-five cases, Otter Tail,
twelve; Meeker, ten and Blue Earth,
fourteen.

been in progress in the camp for only
about two years, but within that brief
period the value of the district as q
permanent producer of gold ore has
been proved beyond the dream of
averice. One mine, the Independent,
has already been developed to a point
where the annual output of gold ore
amounts to over one-half million
dollars. But better than a gold mine
