Proper Seeing of a Picture.
From st. Nicholas.

The first necessity for the proper seeing of
a picture Is to try to see 1t through the
eyes OF the artist who painted 1t. This is
not usual method. Generally people look
only through their own eyes, and like or dis
like picture according as 1t does or does
not suit their particular fancy. These people
will tell you: "Oh. / don't know anything
about painting. but 1 know what 1 like"
which is their way of saying: IF don't
like ii right off l don't care to be bothered
to like 1t all Such an attitude of mind
cuts one off from growth and development,
for It is as much as to say: II am very
well satisfied with myself and quite indif-
ferent to the experiences and feelings of
other men," Yet II is just this feeling and
experience of another man which picture
gives us. II you consider moment you
will understand why. The world itself is
vast panorama, and from 1t the painter
selects his subject-not the copy of It ex
actly, since 1t would be impossible for him
to do this, even II he tried. How could he
represent. for example. each blade of grass
each leaf upon q tree? So what he does Is
to represent the subject as he sees 1t, as 1t
appeals to his sympathy or interest: and IL
twelve artists painted the same landscape
the result would be twelve different pic
lures. differing according to the way In
which each man had been impressed by the
scene; In fact. according to his separate
point of view or separate way of seeing 1t.
Influenced by his individual experience and
feeling.

RAILWAY BUILT BY FARMERS.
One in North Dakota Said to Be Only
Successful Line Of Its Kind.

From the Worlds Work.
The movement of crops was formerly
problem but railways apd trolley lines
almost to the farmers doors now provide
Transportation But difficulties arise such
as confronted the wheat growers of Ram
sey county, N. d.
These farmers hauled their grain
often a distance Of twenty-five miles-to
Devils Lake, the county seat, through
which the Great Northern railway passed.
1t kept the farmers hauling grain all
winter. They asked James ]. Hill, presi-
dent Of the Great Northern railroad, to
build branch line from Devils Lake up
through their section. Mr. Hill said he
could not build Six of the largest farm
ers met at a schoolhouse. One of them
was Joseph Kelly, who owned 900 acres
of land and who hauled his wheat fifteen
miles to DEVILS Lake. Mr.. Kelly said:
IF the Great Northern won't build we
will build" And the farmers built a rail-
road twenty-five miles long.
They asked every farmer who hauled
grain to DEVILS Lake to subscribe. Some
subscribed $25, others $500. They raised
$4,000. They sent a farmer to Duluth to
buy ties and another to st. Paul to buy
old rails. A land promoter was building
small branch line out of Devils Lake to
the south, and they got him to survey the
road. They hired section hands to lay the
track. But they needed more money. They
bought land along the line and laid out
three towns, sold the lots and used the
money to buy an old engine. day coach

Republicans Claim Largest Plurality
Ever Given a President.

CINCINNATI. Ohio, November THE
republicans adhere to their claims that
Ohio will give Roosevelt the largest plu-
rality the state ever gave President, the
highest being 69,036 four years ago. They
even predict that their average plurality
of 1882 at state elections for the past ten
years will be maintained, if not exceeded.
and that they will hold II of the u repre-
sentatives, possibly gain one two.
The democrats claim the reports are now
much more favorable than when the fore
casts were made last Saturday. They have
been conceding the state by 6OO0O, and
now say the republican plurality Will be
less than eight years ago, when Mckinley's
plurality was 81 600.
The democrats have been claiming six
congressional districts. Now they say il
the drift of the past two days continues
they will elect eight representatives and
double their present representation

A Frogs Appetite.
From Forest and Stream.

From Forest and Strealh
The frogs capacity for enveloping ms
comrades and assimilating them was once
shown by an incident which occurred under
the observation of one Of my acquaintances.
He had returned from the country with
lot of frogs, large and small. which he had
obtained for one Of the New YORK educa-
tional institutions. I have forgotten now
many there were, but they numbered over
twenty, am quite certain. These he put
into a large bird cage. the wires OF whlch
were close enough together to prevent even
the smallest from escaping. On the third
day he went to see how his captives were
doing, and found. greatly to his surprise.

OF two old "mossbacks." and they were eye

ROUGH WEATHER KEEPS
YACHTS AT ANCHORAGE
SlOop Mary Anne Founders OFF Sau-

Regatta Is Declared Of.

A regatta for poWer-boats was set
down to take place yesterday on the
schedule of the San Francisco Yacht
Club. The launches and motor boats,
however, differ so greatly in dimen-
sions and speed that the regatta COM
mittee found it almost an impossible
task to get up satisfactory race, and
the event was declared off. Even if
this had not been done, the water off
SausalitO was SO rough yesterday
morning that the race would have
been called off for that reason. A
strong southwesterly wind created
quite a commotion among the yachts
lying at anchor.
Hillzer Deuprey's little sloop Mary
Anne broke from her moorings and
was carried into the corner made by
the southerly side of the clubhouse
and the seawall. A line was made
fast to her and she was pulled toward
the southerly float, but she filled and
sank.
The schooner Martha left her moor
ings at Sausalito at o'clock on
Friday afternoon for Vallejo, and
day, under jib and mainsail. The
schooners Chispa and Challenge
left Sausalito on Saturday afternoon
for cruise in the upper bay Chispa
picked up her moorings at about 2
p. m. and Challenge at about 4:15
p. m. yesterday afternoon.
About p. m. yesterday the wind
moderated, and the sloop Ariel hoist
ed sail for a cruise in the upper bay
The flagship Challenger and the sloop
Curlew also got under way, sailing
out to the channel. They returned in
good season.

HORSENIEN HAVE FUN
WITH THOMAS III. WILLIAMS
His Mount SHES at the Start and
Californian Racing Magnate Is
Nearly DismOunted.

NEW YORK, Oct. 9.-Tom Will
liams, after his ride in the match race
with Sydney Paget, at Morris Park
yesterday, was the victim of much
good-natured chatting. Mr. williams
was not only nearly dismounted, when
his horse SHE'D at the start, but, after
he came Looping in fifteen lengths be-
hind Paget, Williams was completely
tired out and wind-broken. The Cali
fornian has theory that race horses
are set too arduous a task in their
early days; that if they were not
trained until well into maturity the
species would ultimately be largely
benefited.
Paget, who is also practical horse
man, holds opposite views In the
management of horses under his care
Mr.. fPaget has not hesitated to put
such of them as were suited to 1t in
active training early in their two
year-old form. Men naturally bet on
their opinions, and the match at Nor
ris Park was the result. Williams was
unlucky in having chosen a horse
which was 'trackwise.'' This. to-
gether with his lack of practice.

much talked of special race between
Sysonby, Oiseau and Tradition may be
arranged and run off on Saturday next
at Morris Park. 1t is proposed that
it be a three-cornered sweepstakes for
$1,000 each, the association to add

longs and weights to be equal, except,
of course, that Tradition will receive
three pounds sex allowance. Definite
announcement is expected tomorrow
that the foregoing details have been
agreed to by the respective owners.
All signs point to the fastest trot-
ting race on record when the cup cons

Delmar in 2:04M last year. but the
gelding was jaded and in no such con-
dition as at the present. That she
can beat him again If she is right is
generally believed. but it is also be-
lieved that she will have to trot two
heats in 2:03 or better to do 1t. As
Lou Dillon was timed a mile and re-
peat in 1902 and 2:03 in her work at
Cleveland just before being shipped to
Memphis she would seem to be IN
great form to go one mile or two. Mr..
Billings is confident she can trot
