ness to the assault for which Small is
under arrest says that it was the most
brutal affair he ever saw. He states
that Bowen made no attempt to use
his revolver. even when he would have
been justified in protecting his life, but
held the gun behind him in an attempt
to hand it to a bystander while the
negro policeman beat him over the
head with terrific force.

Representative end Senatorial Apportion-
ment.


Representative end Senatorial Apportion-
ment
The next session Of the Pennsylvania
Legislature WILL in all human probabili-
ty, reapportion the State into Repre-
sentative and Senatorial districts The
Constitution OF the Commonwealth
clearly prescribes that this shall be
done Immediately after each decennial
census. The Governor and every
member Of both branches of the legis-
lature takes solemn oath to support the
Constitution of Pennsylvania, and how
any man could deliberately oppose ap-
portionment and not regard himself as
a perjurer, is something we could never
understand. The law-making authori-
ties should be the first to set the ex-
ample of fidelity to the supreme law of
the State, and how they can ask or
expect to retain the respect and conf
dence OF their constituents while openly
defying an unequivocal mandate of the
Constitution is past ordinary compre-
tensions.
The Constitution provides that repre-
sentatives shall be apportioned among
the several counties on a ratio obtained
by dividing the population of the State
as ascertained by the most recent census
by two hundred On that basis Jeffer-
son County has been entitled to two
representatives for the past fifteen
years. With population of sixty
thousand she has had to be content
with one member, while a number Of
other counties having little more than
half the population of jefferson have
been regularly electing two members.
Allegheny County is entitled to six
more members than she has, and a
number Of other counties are in the
same situation. While it is not to be
wondered at that representatives from
those counties which lose should be
enthusiastic for apportionment, it is
scarcely conceivable that they would
vote against it when the measure came
before the Assembly on yea and nay
vote.
There is now no excuse that we can
see either of political expediency or
anything else that can longer delay the
passage of an apportionmept bill, and
we feel sure that the matter will be at
tended to by the next Legislature -

gloomy companionship by abiding
with a picture Of woe.
That the artist may paint a Calvary,
he must be plunged in wretched gloom

he paints it, the gloom o'erhangs it,

gloom enters the spirit of the passer-
BY. But happily, the keynote of the
Hopkins exhibit is gladness, good
cheer, and budding life and vitality
all symbols of California, the new
found home of art, the interpreter of
nature.

by the way, are pronounced by Cap

ever presented before in the fall ex-
hibit-are those of Matteo Sandona,

Sydney p. Yard is showing a charm
ing bit of seashore, storm-swept, with
waves washing high on the white sand,
threatening the anchorage of pink and
purple blossoms that rest like bits of
amethyst there c. P. Nelson, to whom
the sentiment of the Spaniard and his
civilization appeals most strongly, has
some charming bits, notably his ex-
quisite Scene in Orizaba."
Piazzoni, to whom three front names

whose cIeverness distinguishes him
from his fellows, has an alluring
sketch, Midsummer" where a flock of
fluffy sheep, clod of a shepherd, a
great softly swelling hill and a round.
red sun form the features. This farm
er's lad-as he was known at the art
school some half-dozen years ago-has
in him that which makes great artists.
And it's manifest now in his new work.
Delicacy characterizes him.
Anna Frances Briggs has some
pretty studies, all done during her
summer dallying at Halfmoon Bay.
And by the way, this same flame
crowned artist-maid recently had a
canvas hung on the line in the new
London gallery-an honor not to be
lightly valued. Mrs. Richardson and
Mrs. Alice p. Chittenden have both
done good work, the former a pastel
study and the latter "Springtime"-a
pretty conceit.
Sandona, why on earth did you
send that uncanny, Tam O'Shanter,
phantom of child-sketches, that gives
one the shivers? 1 dare say it's good
art, but a paroxysm of spinal quakes
drove me away, down to your very
human portraits near the door. There's
reminiscent touch of the Reaper in
that child study.
The fall exhibit is famous success.
May no artist who exhibits here eer
find himself without beer and skittles!
