ORIENTAL PEWTER WORK.
Quite an Art Among the Chinese and
Japanese-Highly Appreciated
by Amateurs.

There is no question, says the
Boston Herald, but that antique
pewter from China and Japan is
being hailed by collectors as a dis.
coyery. True, the compound is in
Itself nothing so novel. Indeed,
our grandmothers used occasion
ally to get bits of it in the days of
the East India trade, when hus-
bands, sons and sweethearts
would scurry about the Chinese
ports in search of souvenirs to
carry home to the women folks"
But somehow, in the midst of the
general furOre over japanese art
that has prevailed these last few
years, very little has ever been
heard of pewter objects, though
some amateurs have been aware
that it has claims to their cOnsid-
GRAFTON.
The exhibition Of Chinese and
japanese pewter which Paul ChaI-
fin, curator of the oriental depart
ment at the Museum of Fine Arts,
is now arranging in cases in the
metal room, is, so far as known.
the first of it's kind ever made in
America. A number of articles Sc
cured at the Yamanaka and Mat
suki sales have already thus been
put on view. Some of these spe-
cimens date back to the Sung
or Ming dynasties; others are
quite modern. But all illustrate
the possibilities of this metal in
the hands of skillful designers
who know how to use gold, silver
or brass in connection with it.
In the center of the first case
that has been arranged there is a
large vaselike covered jar, dating
back to the fifteenth century, and
surmOunted by a statuette of cop
per, inlaid with brass. This is a
Chinese object, as are two small
tea caddies, with portions in high
relief; two large salvers of pew
ter, inlaid with brass, and a won
derful teapot, with handle of jade
The japanese pewter in another
case shows everywhere strong af-
finity with the designs of other
branches of japanese art, and diff
ferentiates itself sharply in many
essential particulars from the
Chinese productions. Among
other things shown are a bowl of
the seventeenth century, with
hOneysuckle pattern, a very
charming object in color and de-
sign; a large jar spcckIed with
black-the quality that makes ori-
entail pewter most valuable-and
indicating by its ornamentatiou
that ii belongs TO the class that
was once made by special COM
mand of the court of Shotgun for
the emperor himsclf;a very stik.
ing bowl of pewter exterior. inlaid
with panels of brass. The objects
are now on view at the museum.

ONLY A RIVER wHlTEFIsH.
Story of Man Who Knew Fish When
He Saw Them, Also a Rail
road "Ad."

William &. Harris, angling ed
itor of Outing, and rightly called
the Izaak Walton of America, is a
man who can come pretty near to
telling exactly what fish you will
find in Blank brook, in Blank
township of Blank county, Idaho,
Texas or Rhode Island. New fish
es and new facts about them, he
loves as a miser loves gold, only
he does not hoard them, but gath
ers them to- give out again.
One day Harris CHANGED to be in
st. Paul. He was talking with
General Passenger Agent Charley
Fee, who said Harris should go TO
Montana to catch CRAWLING in a
stream at that time much adver.
tised.
Harris said there were no gray
ling in the stream. The railroad
man laughed at him as a New
Yorker who pretended to know
more about a certain Montana
river than a man who had fished it.
The dispute waxed warm. Har-
ris was due in New York on a
certain day, and by taking the first
train west he could have six hours
on the stream and still keep his en-
gagement. In SO hours he was on
the stream with a local represen-
tative of the railroad. He waded
in, made one cast, and was fast to
a silvery thing that tore about
nightly like that ola grayling.
1t came to the net, and the local
representative of the railroad
fairly shouted:
"There, there; it's a grayling"
"Pack this carefully in MOSS"
said Harris. Send il to your gen
eral passenger agent" Then he
walked to the telegraph office ana
wired that official:
cam sending one of your gray
ling. It's an Internal old river
whitPfSh."
Then he took the train for New
York and kept his engagement.

Issues Of The Campaign.

Although neither the Republican the Democratic
parties have yet formulated their platforms it is certain
each of them will have something say upon the
subject of the and the tariff when their conventions
held at Chicago and ST. Louis.
Inasmuch these questions destined play
prominent part in the coming presidential campaign, i.
on these matters should be clearly understood by the
public.
The attitude of the Republican party towards the

dvidual, they must be made to obey the law Tie only

The Democratic position the question is
unknown quantity lying somewhere between the Hearst
and the Cleveland busters II the
probable that they could reach agreement
what should be done with the trusts.
In relation the tariff the Republican position has
always protection guards and develops Amer
can labor The Republican party believes particular
tariff schedules neither sacred immuabe, and
may be changed when altered conditions demand their
revision.
The Democratic position on the tariff is matter of
guesswork. The leaders of the party have sort of
nebulous idea upon the subject but it is impossible

Excellent Schools.

is hardly necessary to make excuse for the great
amount of space THE RECORD has devoted to school
affairs last week and this.
Canon City has schools that all proud of and
they are one of our greatest drawing cards.
The schools may be made of most attractive
resources and through them may attract to Canon
many desirable people.
People the mountain like to get down in the
valleys during the winter and in selecting loca
tion the school fectes is of the important
considerations.
City has schools equal any in the state and
climate superior of the other cities here
equally good schools might be found
little greater eortto attract student families
from the highest towns Canon City might receive
material benefit from this source.
THE RECORD feels that we have few subjects better
to talk about than excellent schools.

Praise for Brooks.

Eastern papers have been particularly
complimentary to Congressman Brooks.
The following Is taken from the New
York Post OF recent date.
1.-THE Agricultural Appropriation act
passed last session contained an nppro-
priation OF S25, 600 for experiments in
animal feeding and breeding, which
mark something OF new departure in
the work OF the Department OF Agri-
culture.
"This was brought'about by the in
sistence OF Representative Brooks, the
represen ative- from Colorado, f,
and it is expected that the money will
be spent in connection with the agri-
cultural experiment station at Fit, Col
| lins In that State.
"Mr. Brooks, who finally succeede ed in
getting this proposal retained in the ng-
riculturnl bill against the opposition Of
Chairman Wndswprth, has been nm un-
usually aggressive and efficient repre-
sentative, especially for new member.
He was born in Massachusetts forty
two years ago, and reared in South
Il
bridge. lie Is also well known in Boston,
and practiced law there threeyenrs prior
to 1891, when his health broke down 80
that he was Obliged to go to Colorado.
He bad graduated from Southbridge
High school and Brown University, and
had taken part OF the course Mt the
b ,ston University Law Shcool. He
was unable to do anything for the first
eighteen months OF his residence in
Colorado, but in the autumn Of 1902 had
so far recovered ms to embark in the
prsctice of law in Colorado Springs"
The campaign from which his cleo
tion to Congress resulted was an excit-
ing one. The Democrats nominated
Alva Adams, one Of the old warehouses
of .the party. When the vote was
counted Adams hnd "a ,36s and Brooks
81, ,207, u plurality Of less than thou
