John Morley. the English author and
statesman, is sojourning in the city and is
at present guest of the President and
Mrs. Roosevelt at the White House.
The President gave dinner in his honor
on Thursday and Friday nights where
number of prominent people met him,
including members of the Cabinet and
the Supreme Court. John Morley is not
only distinguished scholar and histor-
ian, but he is the leader of the Liberals
in the present British Parliament. At the
Presidents dinner table there may have
been a paucity of congenial topics of con-
versation, as the guest of hour has been
for the last five years not merely an elo-
quent advocate of peaceful methods in
the world, but an outspoken and unlinch-
ing opponent of the methods pursued by
Great Britain and America in South
America aud the Philippines.

Next week a memorable event will
occur in this city. S. Coleridge.T Taylor,

"Hiawatha" will be rendered by chorus
of two hundred voices, accompanied by
the Marine Band of fifty-two pieces. Mr..
Taylor is negro. "Hiawatha" has been
rendered by twenty of the leading choral
societies of England, once by the Royal
Society, with King Edward as patron,
and chorus and orchestra of one thous-
and. Convention Hall here will seat
four thousand. Mr.. Coleridge- Taylor is;
entitled to no slight credit for having thus
made his way to fame and the generous
applause of Anglo Saxons In the chorus
will be a large number of eminent soloists.

ENcAUsTIc PAINTING.
The Art Was Practiced by Ancient
Greeks and Romans.

Greeks and Romans.
The use of paint brushes is of great
antiquity. But as late as the fifteenth
century it was customary to apply var
nish by smearing it on with the fingers
or with a bit of sponge, as the var
nisheS then used were too viscid to
flow well with Il brush and could be put
on more thinly and evenly with the fin
gers. This practice was used in the
earliest times of which there is any
record. The Egyptian mummy cases
bear evidence OF having been varnish-
ed in this manner.
The use of frescO. or water color
paints, though the oldest, was not the
only method known to the ancients.
The Greeks and Romans especially
practiced encaustfc painting Encaustic
plants We're made of clarified bees
wax, with which, when melted. pig
ments were mixed. These paints We're
applied hot with brushes or spatulGe,
and when cold they were given Il glazed
surface by holding Il torch or hot iron
near them. The hot iron was called
the ''cauterium."
Another method is said TO have been
TO melt the wax with rOsin. and after
the pigment was added the compound
was allowed to cool to Il hard and brit
tie mass, which WOuld be pulverized.
The co,ored powders made in this way
We're mixed with water. SO that they
could be applied with brush like fres-
co paint, after which they were melt
ed by the cauterium. If resins were
thus used with the wax. Il sort of var
nish was the result. If the wax was
used alone, the finished painting was
sometimes vanished. These colored
wakes were also used for writing The
red especially was used for royal sig
natures. whence the use q red sealing
wax for a seal. And this 'incausticum,"
as it was called in the middle ages, is
the origin of our word ink.-Cassier's
