The painter was disconsOlate when the
clouds had to come out. Il believe l
would willingly pay $40 for each cloud the
President and any of those who partici-
pated in the battle would let me place
upon my canvas" he said.
Then he was getting along finely, with
the Rough Riders in superb action and
the "smoke Of battle" rolling up in great
shape, when the President put another
veto on the painting. There was no smoke,
he said. The Rough Riders used smoke
less powde and there was not a bit or
smoke The artist objected vigorously.
He said that battle piece with no smoke
in il would he a most remarkable canvas.
The President insisted, however, so the
smoke came out. The painter was not
satisfied, however. so he studied up smoke
less powder. He has quarters and a
studio at Fort Myer, across the Potomac
from Washington. He watched the firing
of 400 rounds of smOkeless powder in the
drill and was delighted to find that there
was Smoke though so slight as to be
scarcely entitled to the name. The smoke
is more reddish vapor he says, and will
harmonize exquistely with the wealth of
coloring in his tropical picture. He is not
satisfied. however, and says he would give
SlO0 for some smoke in his picture. "A
battle picture with no clouds and no
SMOKE" he says with a shrug; Il never
painted the like before"

A very interesting person who is in

chagin, who is painting for the President
Il huge picture Of the battle OF San Juan
Hill The great Russian painter. who is
famous for his battle canvases, is meet
ing up with good many artistic jolts in
his pursuit of atmosphere" for his pic
ture. In the first place, he visited Cuba,
and camped around San Juan Hill and
made notes" till he supposed he had the
thing down fine. When little later the
President saw the foliage on the trees,
and some peculiar red blossoms which he
had noticed on the day of the battle de-
picted on the canvas, he promptly told the
painter they wouldn't do because they
were not true to nature. So back to San
Juan went NJ. Verestchagin to stldy Gu
ban botany some more. He found the
President was correct, and when ne came
back from viewing the flowers in bloom
and the lnxuriant foliage, he got the col
ors spread on all right. Then he painted
into this picture some very beautiful
clouds, quite the finest he ind ever put
on canvas, and he had studied Cuban

Good and Fad Taste.

Madame Jules Cambon, wife of the
French Ambassador to the United States,
says that American women gown them
selves exquisitely, but out of place; that
they do not know where to wear their
dresses. Madame Cambon spent only a
few weeks in this country, coming to tine
unvailing of the ROchambeau statue, and
practically as the guest Of the Nation, in
stead of the wife of her husband, for she
has never cared to live in the United
States. Then she went back to France
and talked about her hostess. An Ameri-
can woman would not have had the bad
taste to do that.
American woman spends great deal Of
money ON dress, and that she has a figure
to hang it on, but that the gowns rarely
fit the occasion on which they are worn.
She says that the American woman wears
1ecollette dress in the daytime and ball
dresses in the street cars. When asked
what woman was to do who lad no car
riage in which to wear her handsome
gowns. the wife of the French Ambassa
dor quickly replied that she should not buy
the carriage dress until she had carriage
in which to wear it. Then Madame Cam
bon says with that fine French sense of
her aristocratic lineage: There is still
certain advantage in the distinction of
class which exists in foreign cities. There
COsluiutS luul tHe HluusC
classes in Europe leave for the aristocrats.
The bourgeoise who has no carriage may
envy her sister who is luckier, but she
will not therefore lower her standard of
what is becoming" Madame Cambon evil
IDENTIFY does not fully understand that there
are no class distinctions or distinctions Of
blood in this country. She has not learned
that here men or women are exactly
what they make themselves, fine or coarse,
as the case may be, and that they are ac-
eepted at their own estimate, il that es-
innate is honest.
Madame Cambon also takes occasion to
rate the American mother. than whom the
world has never seen a finer example of
solicitude and duty to the future sovereigns
Of the Nation. Madame Cambon says the
American mother evidently loves her chill
dren, but that she sees very little of them.
This from French woman, and she an
aristocrat, sounds very funny, indeed. She
says, too, that the American man is very
much neglected by his wife. This is de-
liciously ludicrOus. in view of the fact that
the population of France is decreasing and
the French Government has offered prizes
for larger families. and "views with
alarm" the growing Indifference to family
cares of the average French mother and
father Sometime Madame Cambon should
visit us again. although she gave no hope
Of joining her husband in, the United States
permanently, and she will then learn some
thing about us and our institutions.

Extra Session Imminent.

If the President does as he is quoted to
be about to do. there will be some knock
ing among the Senators of the United
States who have campaigns on their hands
and whose only show OF getting back is to
stay at home and keep the wires strung
taut on their wabbly old fences.
Cuba is coming to the President with a
request for the very earliest possible ac-
ton on n reciprocity treaty. The Presi-
dent threatened along in the early Spring
time that if Congress adjourned without
action such as he wanted in Cuban affairs
he would convene the Senate in eytraof-
dinary session in order to secure the ratifi-
cation of reciprocity treaty with Cuba.
The leaders pooh-poohed the idea, and said
Nay, nay; he will not interrupt the cam
paign that way"
When Congress adjourned the President
said quite philosophically, MY plans have
been delayed. but not defeated" Now ii
seems his delayed plans are to be made the
subject of special legislation. 1t has been
suggested that the session will be called

There was an attempt made to force
the Encampment bands to play something
beside National airs. 1t was said by sew
eral that everybody was tired of the Ma
tional airs, and that rag-time music was
the best to march to. AS soon as the de-
cison got out there was a general protest,
and Chairman Warner said that he would
see to it that the bands played the airs
that the veterans loved. A National En-

Oil for Engine Fuel.

The test to determine the feasibility
OF using oil for engine fuel on warships,
conducted under the direction of the Navy
department, are nearing completion, and
have, to a certain extent, been satisfac-
tory, although the element of danger aris-
ing from the percolation throughout the
ship Of combustible gases has yet to be
overcome.
The real test is yet to come As every
war vessel is built with the idea that its
main purpose is to engage in short ex-
per1ence of actual battle, the experiments
now being conducted are designed princi-
pally to determine whether oil can be used
feasibly under forced draft for period of
four hours. This will be fearful test of
the engiRe-room working force, and of the
engines and boilers.
