The bad news came to them two days be-
fore the time when the Hogenlanden was
due to arrive in New York harbor Old
Deputy United States Marshal Skeinhardt,
who had arrested thousands of international
criminals. drifted down to quarantine sta
ton. Skeinhardt was a non-committaI old
fellow, but in answer to some artful queries
over glass of schnapps by Ned Backstay
he admitted that he had a warrant for a
woman passenger from Sweden, accused by
the Swedish consul on cabled orders of
grand larceny.
That's the country you came from, Lar
sen," said the officer, lightly
Yes" said the latter his lips tightening.
but our women don't steal very often,
sir"
Maria Solferino laughed joyously over this
new complication The presence of danger
aroused wild joy in her. She would have
liked to be the queen of some brigand chief
to bind up wounds and to encourage the
men to deeds of daring. And she had an
inbred antipathy to any one who bore the
badge of authority.
What's to be done?" she said. her alert

considered. it is conclusive that we must
have competition for all works of art, as
it is only through competition that we will
get new ideas and give chance to unknown
men to come to the front. But We should
be broadminded in forming juries to judge
them, as artist may be great in his own
line of work. but very narrowminded in
judging the work of other people. In fact
ii seems that this is especially the fault of
those artists whose work is the most char
acteristic. 1t naturally occurs to the layman
TO ask Who then shall be the judGe?"
How to Select Judges.
To the writer it seems that the simple
solution of the problem would be that
when a competition is called and the COM
petitors send in their drawings or models,
the latter should. at the same time be
quested to send in a list of at least three
professionals and one or two other persons
of high education known to be Intelligent
ly interested in art. \ majority of those
thus named should constitute the advisory
committee. There would thus be given an
opportunity to every school to assert itself
We would then prevent the formation OF
an aristocracy in art, which is the most
dangerous enemy to its true progress.
AS we are on this subject let us express
the hope that our spirit of imitation or
simiation shall not lead us to the point Of
ed of eX-ofticio judges. Whoever has lived

TOO MUCH GOLD.
The Objection That One Man Had to

An inquisitive looking little man, whose
condition indicated that even his eyesight
was below normal, stood on the sidewalk
near police headquarters one day this week
and was attracted by the glittering gilt
department. -.., sa--'~-o-

now" be remarked to a pedestrian, that
a stranger can't tell whether a mans a
street car conductor, a steamboat captain.
an army officer an ordinary policeman.
Even drivers and porters in business
houses are wearing gold. Is Washington
full of gold bugs?''
the stranger Ventured. There IS lots Of
gold to be seen on uniforms about the
city"
I'm going to register a kick" the partly
intoxicated man said. You see I'm DEM
ocrat and a free silver man and / object
to these men wearing so much gold on
their clothes when there's no occasion for
1t"
But it brightens the uniform and gives
people to understand that the wearers of
the bright colors are more than ordinary
people" suggested the pedestrian who was
addressed by the man who had been i'm
billing.
The latter promptly announced that the
last remark did not suit him.
Fine clothes may make fine birds" he
said, but little gold on a mans clothes
don't make him any better than l am.
Who's that man walking down there now?'
Hes Captain -"
Captain of what?"
"Of police"
I've got no more to say except that
thought he was on a steamboat"
They parted the best of friends.

CAPE MAY. n. J., July 3, 1903.
Tomorrow will be fitting climax to a
lively week which has been full of social
events; from Monday until tonight the
great throngs of visitors which are here
have been thoroughly enjoying themselves.
The first great crush of the season came in
on Friday and Saturday of last week, and
NEST of these arrivals were permanent Wis.,
itors who Will remain until the season
closes in September. The cottage colony
came on an average of a week and two
weeks earlier, while the permanent hotel
guests have been coming for the Past two
weeks in addition to the regular crowd of
visitors, and. Of course, there was a great
increase in the numbers who came yester-
day and are expected tomorrow morning
to enjoy Independence day down by the
sounding sea waves.
The syndicate of Pittsburg capitalists has
made wonderful strides during the week
toward the development of its newly
Qured land on the eastern end of the re-
sort. Wednesday its dredges arrived and
were brought in Cold Spring inlet to the
sounds, and they have been put in readi-
ness for the first of the work of the filing
of the 100000 cubic yards of land which
it owns to the height at which it must be
before buildings shall be erected upon it.
one of them is probably the largest dreGSe
in the United States. The machinery for
this big machine has arrived and Is await
ing installation on the dredge. The ma
ctinery alone for this weighs more than
10 tons, and 1t will force materials Of any
kind through tubes forty-two inches in di-
ameter. When once started 1t cannot be

is the expense of running the ma chine.

to he moved. An officer and bugler are
waiting for his orders. Thus in one simple
idea is represented the strategic operation
of moving an army. In the opinion or
many of the competitors themselves it was
the most characteristic and realistic man
ncr of representing a general-in-chief.
The Grant Monument.
The decision on the Grant monument was
in some respects perhaps worse. Although
professionals never attach much impor-
lance to public opinion, nevertheless some
times it strikes the right point. While
crowds of men and women We're passing
from one model to another exclamations
as "Oh isn't that SWEET Isn't that
cute"' were heard from almost every one
II a monument 10 Grant is to be sweet or

idea of a reviewing stand for monument

opinion of the writer. the scale was not
large enough TO prove the ability of either
one of the artists as modeer. Anyhow. as
far as could be judged from such n small
model. Niehaus has proved himself to he
far superior as a modeler to Shrady
whose model revealed an amateur. He WILL
perhaps. in the future do some good work
but at Present. outside OF few very small
sketches he has done nothing which should
entitle him to receive an order for work of
such Importance.
With or Without Competition.
After all. one may ask. rs it good to have
competitions for monuments?" Mr. ST
Gaudens, the distinguished artist, is well
known to be against competitions, and II is
also well known that he dislikes to be
judge OF them. In this connection the
writer would mention the following in
stance: The order for the, Sherman monu-
ment, which has just been unveiled in New
York, and which was done by ST. Gaudens
was given to him without competition. Gle
never competes) But had he submitted
the scale model of this monument in COM
petition very likely no committee would
have awarded him the order, for the SINH
larity OF conception TO that of the William
i monument in Berlin is very evident, and

we should thus have been deprived of
masterpiece.
But we have, on the contrary, another in
stance in which the order was given with
out competition, and which has proved
failure: namely. the Lafayette monument
which is to be erected in Paris from funds
furnished by the children of the public
schools throughout the United States The
pedestal. although designed by a dstin-
guished architect. is perfect copy of the
Coleoui pedestal in Venice. a masterpiece
but which will be anachroniSm in
Paris. and the horse and rider are stiff

Germany. This and many other instances

helped himself to the money which belonged
to her. He told her that Lars Larsen was
dead-killed in a collision at sea. And
then to ease his conscience he drove the
poor girl so hard it was wonder she did
not break down under the strain of min
gled heartbreaks, blows, starvation and
ceaseless labor.
Stay where you are" said the wiser
Ned. You'll only get red-headed ana
spoil the whole business. The old man has
got the cinch on you in the law. He can
swear the girl owed him the money he
took, and make all sorts of trouble for you
and her. Besides, you are not looking for
revenge, but for a home and a wife. Now,
let us take steps to see how we get
them. l am going to tell Maria Solferino
all about ii. The little Dago is as cunning
the devil
Maria Solferino. a regular little daughter
of the Malta, took to conspiracy as a duck
to water. She declared that Christina An
dersen must not only be delivered out OF
her slavery, but must take steps to punish
her oppressor. And how could that best
be done but by taking back the money
which he had stolen? Maria Solferino was
for emptylng his strong box, but Lars Lar
sen would not listen to this. Il want moth
Ing but Christina" he said.
I'VE do it differently in Sicily said the
girl, casting dangerous glance out of her
dark eyes toward Ned Backstay, which
nearly drove the honest oarsman crazy.
Ned would commit a murder or steal a
bank for Maria, and esteem the act
virtue. - 81 -. ssss s-lsJ7s
The widow in Christiansand carried out
her part of the conspiracy with great eclat
She was supplied with money by Lars Lar
sen, and being a shrewd woman, used it
with discretion. In time word came that
Christina was ready for departure. Her
box was already packed and at a safe dis
lance from home, and at the last minute
she would take the money which was hers
from the old mans strong box and sail on
the steamship Hogenlanden. In three
weeks at most Lars Larsen could hold his
sweetheart in his arms
Little did these simple conspirators real
ize the cunning and the greed of one who
has sold his soul to the devil for money.
They forgot to count on the old miser's ca
pacity for revenge.
