MODES FIGHT
 WITH SPANIARDS
SAILOR FROM COLUMBIA JoSTLES AGAINST SEAMAN FROM SPAN- lSH CRUISER AND SPANiARD DRAWS STlLETTO.

St. Thomas, D. w. l., February 25-A fight occurred here yesterday afternoon between sailors from a Spanish and an American warshlp. which resulted in the wounding of several men and ultimate victory for the Americans.
 The fight originated when a seaman from the United States cruiser Columbia jostled a sailor from the Spanish cruiser Rio de la Plata as he passed him in the street The Spanard was with a com panion from his ship as was the American sailor, and all the men were on shore lib~ erty.
 The Spanish sailor drew stilletto and seriously wounded the American who had brushed against him. Other men from the Columbia who were on shore gathered around their companions and attacked the two Spaniards, who defended themselves with their knives and succeeded in slight ly wounding several other Americans
 They finally escaped, ran to the wharf and jumped into the water They were picked up by harbor boat and taken on board their warship. The wounded Amer ican sailor Is in a hospital here in a critical condition.
 The Rio de la Plata will leave here to- night The departure has been delayed to effect repairs to damages sustained in coming into collision with the Nova Scotia brigantine Peralzea.

 In the first of her address the speaker referred to the impetus given art in this country by the Worlds fair in Chicago, and she recalled a part of President Clevelands address eleven years ago on the wonder of the white city" the dream city" Mrs. Cunningham said that now every university in the east had it's chair of fine arts, and later on in the course of her lecture she gave a list of authorities on art who had been most helpful to her Rnskin headed the list. which concluded with Van Dyke. The speaker paid special tribute to Dr. Part ridge who has the chair of Fine Arts in the Columbian university.
 Mrs Cunningham then took up the schools of art, the philosophic, the au- thetic, the historical, bringing forward the vital points with a tone and com prehensive interpretation.
 Mrs. Cunningham outlined under what she called the four forces in her discussion of art, the interaction of one are upon the other. Another division of her lecture was that pointing outs the laws govern ing art: viz, principality, repetition, con tinuity, curvature, radiation, color, light, value. The three last will be discussed in the second lecture. The laws of beauty, reflection, contrast consistency. harmony, were eloquently dwelt upon.
 In the course of her lecture Mrs. Cum ningham said that the high water mark in art was reached in Michael Angelo. Throughout her lecture the speaker ire auently referred to Robert Browning and to Matthew Arnold
 In concluding she was most eloquent in her interpretation of the language of art The keynote of her lecture was in- deed the spiritually of art.
 The studio was very attractively ar ranged with several canvases by Miss Rumph and Miss Smith. and with some of Mrs. Raulston's porcelans, which with several studies by foreign artists, were used as illustrations in Mrs Gun

MRS. CUNNINGHAM GIVES
 BRILLIANT LECTURE ON ART

Mrs. Robert Cunningham gave a bril- liant lecture on art yesterday afternoon in the Watts building. A most represent tative audience heard the lecturer whose subject was "The Principle and Technique of Visual Art" The close attention given the speaker was in a way unusual. She spoke probably for an hour or more and at the close of her lecture 1t was evident that her audience was most reluctant to leave. While Mrs. Cunningham has often given talks at clubs special interest was attached to her lecture of yesterday, as it was the first of a series of three which has been arranged by Mrs. Raulston. Miss Edna Smith and Miss Rumph, the series to be the only art lectures of the entire winter. The second lecture will be given .dn March 3.
 Mrs Cunningham has made a study of art until she is familiar with it's tech nique it's principles, it's beauty, its pur- pose She is at home in Old World gal leres, and so great is her appreciation so intelligent is her interpretation of all that is best in art that the worlds greatest masterpieces are brought before her hear CTS. Ruskin himself has not dwelt with more impressive force upon the real and permanent value of art

Municipal Records Disappear.

Seattle, Wash, February 25.-The town of Skaguay, Alaska, is in peculiar municipal straits, as all the early town records have disappeared along with the files of the newspapers This is a particularly perplexing situation, since it is impossible to tell what franchises have been granted or what privileges the franchises contained. The dis appearance of these records is mysteri- ous. It is generally recognized, how ever, that it might be to the advant- age of certain utility companies oper- ating in Skaguay if the recorded past were plotted out.
