PAINTING CAUSES TROUBLE.
sSThe Masked Woman, Nude Figure

by Gervex, Basis of Suit.
Paris Correspondence New York Her
aid:
An incident which has just occurred in
the law courts Is causing some stir
here. A wealthy widow, Mime. Du CAST,
well known on account of her automo-
bile exploits, being the only female COM
petitor in the Paris-Berlin race; and
who entered for the Paris Vienna con-
test, was recently the plaintiff in a civil
action. The defendants counsel was
Maitre Barbour, who also is well
known. -'
During the hearing he produced a
photograph Of picture called THE
masked Woman" by Gervex, exhibited
at the Salon Of 1886, representing nude
female, the face alone being concealed
by a mask. NJ. <~BarboUx handed this
photograph around the court, declaring
that Nm: Du Cast had served as the
model. Nine. Du Cast made an indig-
nant denial and demanded a retraction.
M. Barbour took no notice of her de-
mmand, and Nine. Du Cast has now
brought action against lhim:. $3.50
The Figaro says this is the second
time the picture has caused trouble.
When it was first exhibited jealous
husband thought he recognized his wife
as the original and challenged M. Ger
vex. The latter gave the name of the
real model, but the husband was not
satisfied and insisted on duel, in
which eventually he himself was
wounded.

pom which industry shall be contin-

upon when INDUSTRY Shall De contln-
ued.
While some may assert that the
strike is q relic Of barbarisn1, answer
that the strike is the most highly civil
lied method which the workers, the
wealth producers have yet devised to
protest against the wrong and in
justice and to demand the enforcement
of the right. :. =
The strike compels more attention
and study into economic and social
wrongs than all the essays that have
been written. 1t establishes better re-
lations between the contending parties
than have heretQfore existed, recon-
Giles laborers and capitalists more ef-
fectually, and speeds the machinery for
production to e. greater extent; gives an
impetus to progress and increases
power.
If the bitter attacks which are made
upon strikes and trade unions were to
be taken seriously we would imagine
ourselves in the midst of barbarism,
and the United States the last in the
procession of the industrial nations of
the world.
There exists. organization in China,
bound by oath and superstition; but
there is no organized labor movement
there. Centuries of hunger have stul-
titled the race, not satisfied it: curbed
and compressed them; not expanded or
broadened them-servility and physical
cowardice are their attributes.
China is country without strikes"
and so long as our present Industrial
system shall. last a country without
strikes must Of necessity be like China,
or tend toward that goal.
Language fails me to express how
earnest, are the organized workers in
their desire to avoid and, to reduce the
number of strikes; but as one associa-
ted with the labor movement of Am
erica, and WHO has given more than
thirty years Of life to the study OF
economics; the history of the struggle
of the workers Of the work: who has
participated with them in their glories
as we'll as their defeats, I happy In
being in mental company with Abra-
ham Lincoln when he said: THANK
God, we have a system of labor where
there can be- a.. strike. Whatever
pressure there is a point where the
workingman may STOP.
I trust that the day will never come
when the workers, the wealth producers
of our country and our time will sur
render their right to strike. The at
'tacks on labor organizations and
strikes are repetitions of the old cry
of laissez faire, :1et we'll enough &lone,
which is as old as the hills, and just as
easily susceptible to an advance step
or a progressive thought. The same
cry went up when women in England
half-naked, working on all fours IN the
mines and seldom left them except to
give birth to a child, of whose pater-
nifty they themselves were in DOUBT
and to be returned to the clay from
whence they came.

FOR SHAPING A MONKEY.
Peculiar Prosecution Instituted by

Humane Society.
From the London Mail:
An application was made at the West
London police court by an officer of the
Royal Society for the Prevention Of
Cruelty to Animals for summons in
respect of an alleged act of cruelty
to a monkey at sideshow in Earls
Court exhibition. It was stated that the
monkey received two blows on the head
with the hand.
The observation-disclosures like boys,
required to be chastised. Two blows to
a horse could not justify charge Of
cruelty
Applicant-"It is a. very small mon
key"
The magistrate said he supposed that
the monkey had its ears boxed. The
act was a most valuable one, and he
was axious that it should not be made
ludicrous by extending it beyond the
proper scope. However, he granted the
summons, though he had grave doubts
about it,

POKER WITH GREENBACKS.
From the Washington Post !:

From the Washington Post:
The new "greenback" poker game
cropped up on recent middle-of-the-
month pay day with disastrous results
to trio Of clerks in certain bureau
of the treasury department-which one,
for obvious reasons, cannot be stated.
Anyhow, all hands were possessed of
the usual pay plethora of new paper
money, and one of them was scanning
his particular bundle of green papers,
observing the numbers thereupon with a
poker frame of mind. Discovering four
fives on one of his VS., he remarked to
his office mates that, from a poker
standpoint he had 'em all about skin
ned. This sally caused everybody to
produce.
oh, don't know" came back from
one Of them when. he had looked over
his pile and noted four Fights. ''Tll
just about bet a couple of these ones
that I'm the strongest and pass it along
for TAKERS
The last speaker got a taker right
away by a man who doped out full
house numbered on one of his green
backs. who saw the 81 bet and raised
it 81. Then another chirped in at this
stage with the observation that he'd
take in the coin with his little poker
hand, in view of which confidence he'd
see the bets already made and raise
'em all IS if they din't mind. At this
stage of the ,proeeedinge matters were
decidedly interesting, and it was mu-
tually agreed by the holders of the re-
spective hands that their bets were
bona-fide and stood and the others
would call the last speaker. On a show
the latter exhibited four ones, which
are aces in the new game, and the re-
suit was that the others peeled off suf
icient Of their semi stack to
make good right on the spot. They
are mighty conservative around the
treasury bureau where this happened
about chucking any bluffs as to the
merits of the "hands" they have in
their greenbacks since the man with
four aces caught some of their number.

VEGETARI4NISu AND HEALTH
TESTIMONY TENDING TO SHOW THAT

To the Editor OF The Tribune.
Sir: The Tribune has lately published an opinion
on vegetartanism by DR.. w. Gilman THOMPSON in
which he says: THE universal experience has
been that 1t eventually results in a loss of
strength end general resisting power against dis
ease" and that 1T induces condition of mus

trust that The Tribune will allow vegetarian
OF twenty-five years standing TO reply this state
ment that the doctor is simply mistaken as any
vegetarian of long experience would tell him. The
mistake is probably based the fact that any
person who tries to give up even greatly to
diminish the use of meat will feel such symptoms
OF weakness and digestive disturbance that il he
takes alarm and abandons the attempt he will
ever after believe. and assure any physician. that

THE VINE.
A SURVEY OF THE WINES OF THE
WORLD.

THE STORY OF THE VINE BY Ed rs,n r R
Emerson 12mo. PIP. tx, 252. G. 2. Putnam
Sons.
Mr. Emerson's story is entertainingly, though
somewhat garrulously, told, and without much
attempt al literary establishment. He speaks
first of the wines of antiqu!ty-of the Falernian
and Chan of the Romans and of the strange
and uncanny mixtures they made of them. When
he begins on the wines of modern countries he
speaks largely from his own observation and
lets us see clearly that he has decided views and
preferences. He is a great believer in American
wines and yet unsparing critic of the trick
cry and mistaken methods that nave brought
discredit them. Port wine he thinks. Is
deusion and snare-a mixture-not TO De hao
pure even in Portugal; and he assures u.s. as
have often been assured before, that there
is from five to twenty times as much wine sold
under the labels of the famous French vineyards
they produce. AS for German wines, the
really grand ones though good keepers. are
poor travellers. and, fortifcation spells them,
they must stay at home. So the foreigner gets
the poor grades. Here, too, the inevitable
adulterator plies his nefarious trade and we
almost begin to distrust the very name Of wine
America is the land of destiny for wine. and
California the favored spot. But California has
done more to lower the standard of American
wines than any other State in the Union:
Naturally endowed with every requisite neces-
sary for the making of the finest wines on this
earth, she has abused and betrayed the gifts
bestowed upon her. and now, instead of having
the confidence of the world at large, she has
only reaped she has sown, suspicion and de-
riSion.
Cleanliness is at least a universal character
istic of American wine makers in striking con-
trast to unceanly, and in some cases disgusting,
methods, as practised in Europe. Americans
must recover from the discredt they have
brought upon their wines, and il exhortation,
advice and the penalties already paid for dis
honesty can accomplish it. they will. Mr.. Emer-
son is not without hope; and he is GER
tain of the ability of this country to produce the
best qualities OF wine if the disposition to do
so shall be assured.

This elaborate compilation gives a complete
survey of the work of Protestant missions
throughout the world. It's origin was IN a paper
presented at the meeting of the Ecumenical
Conference on Foreign Missions in 1900. The
undertaking grew to the great dimensions OF
this volume before the author could disentangle
himself from It. and it seems to represent all
that can he expected of completeness regarding
a work prosecuted by so many Independent or
CARNATIONS in all parts Of the world The au-
thor thus describes his object:
This Centennial Survey is an attempt to
ga Their into panoramic volume the cumu-
lative foreign missionary movements of the
nineteenth century, and to record the present
status of mission activities, with such attention
to detail and such historical and descriptive
comments that even the curSory reader must
recognize the dynamic power and momentum of
the Kingdom of God now in action through
out the earth
The book is almost entirely tabulaton of
statistics; but the tables speak eloquenty of the
facts they summarize. There statistics of
