ST. MENIN'S PORTRAITS.
A French EnErayer whose PrOnles We're
the Rage n Century Ago.

In a little Virginia mountain city there
| is a curious collection Of engravings by an
almost forgotten engraver once vastly
popular in New York. The family occu-
pyiDg the house where the collection is
stored is descended from a former Vir-
ginia Congressman and the pictures are
medallion profiles of all or nearly all the
members of an early Congress-. The ell
cravings are the work Of st. Memin. a
French artist Of a century ago.
The engraver full name was Charles
Balthazer Julien Fevret de st. Memin
He came, a youth, to New York and lived
in house overlooking the little city of
that day and it's harbor. He was SO
charmed with the view from his window
that he made careful drawing of it, and a
friend, knowing that the family had been
ruined by the French Revolution, suggested
that he study engraving and try to make
a living by that art.
st. Memin, then % or "a. set about the
study of the art and in time acquired great
skill. He chose, however, to make his work &
narrow specially, for he used the imple-
ment called the @phvsionotrice, which
actually traced the profile life size directly
from the face. The picture was reduced
by means of another invention which st.
Memin improved.
BY 1898 he was so expert that he began
to work professionally. and within the next
twelve years he had made nearly eight
hundred pictures of widely known Ameri-
cans He is said to have made the last
picture from life of Washington, small
profile, much used in mourning rings and
brcastpins after Washington's death.
st. Memin speedily became popular in
New York There was sort of rage for
his pictures, and he did large part of the
fashionable world and scores Of public
men. For s3a he made the copper plate
and furnished a dozen proofs. At first it
took him two weeks to execute such an
order, but later he could do it in three
days.
England. and he visited the cities of that
region, making pictures Of public men and
local beauties. Then he went South to
Baltimore, Washington, Richmond and per-
haps other cities. He was successful wher-
where he undertook a great many orders.
St Memin's work brought him prosperity,
and he might perhaps have kept on making
profles OF American men and women
decree permitting the return Of the emigras
took him back to Paris in 1910 and Americans
saw no more OF him He lived until 1882
There are comparatively few collectors
of ST. Memin's pictures, and the pictures
themselves do not fetch large prices, but
there was an exhibition OF his work few
years ago at the Grolier Club in this city,
and at the Constitutional Centennial In
1880 attention was again attracted to him.
He receives scant notice at the hands Of
boRraphers, and his life is known to only
the few who take an interest in out Of the
way matters. -

Bishops Decide that No Assistance
Will BE Given Any Church That
Costs Over $4,000.
CONSOLIDATION VOTED DOWN
NO MERGING OF HOME MISSION AND
EXTENSION BENEvOLENCE.
Time Limitation from Loans Removed
appropriations by the Com
mittee.

KANSAS CITY. Nov. 5.-The general
committee of church extension of the
Methodist Episcopal Church. now in ses-
sion here, to-day by a vote of q to s re-
jected the plan to consolidate the home
mission and the church extension benevo-
lence. This does not carry with it a re-
lection of the plan to consolidate other
charitable departments of the church,
which will come UP for consideration later.
The committee also rejected, by a vote of
almost two to one, the plan submitted yes
terday to remove the rule of the church
that provides that the society cannot assist
any church whose building costs more tina
$4,000. The Ohioans were DESTROYS of as
sisting in the building of a church at Ober-
lin to cost $25, 900.
AT the afternoon session the work of
making appropriations for aiding the build
ing of houses of worship in the various
conferences during the coming year was
begun.
Bishops Hamilton and Cranston told of
the work in Alaska, and advocated greater
liberality on the part of the board. Under
last years ruling the m pledged
a loan of $500 to any church that raised
500. Bishop Cranston said that conditions
have grown harder during the last year,
and that the Rev. j.. Parsons, of Salem,
Ore, who will have charge of the work
during the next twelve months, will need
all Of the encouragement that can be given
him. 1t was finally decided TO lend Alaska
$500 for every 500 1T raises.
Bishop Fowler made an earnest plea for
the same ratio as last year, $1,000 to So, 200,
for the Central Illinois Conference. The
old alto carried. and under a suspension
of the rules the time limitation was re-
moved from any loans that might be made.
The following appropriations were among
those made, the first column showing the
amount the conference must raise to entitle
it TO the loan set down in the second
column.
