Remarkable Painting on Exhibition.

Remarkable raining on E4hD1C1ou.
1.-The Burning Arrow" canvas ten feet
by eight feet. by Mr.. Ashley D. M. Cooper.
is on exhibition at the s. Kann's Sons & Co.
gallery, at 9Th street and Market space.
The painting, which Is valued at 5000.
was painted from an incident which occur
red during the late Indian war.
A group of Indians have selected an ele-
walton of rock from which to fire their Sig
nails. The burning arrow signals Is the
system used by the Indians In war time to
signal their friendly camps or to set fire to
the camp Of the enemy. They take an ar
row, wrap 1t in buckskin or flannel, or any
piece Of cloth they may secure. and dip II
in fat and light it. and shoot 1t into the sky.
Shooting in different directions have sep
arate meanings
These signals we're so effective that they
were copied by the United States navy who
used sky rockets in place of the arrow.
and afterward they attained greater per-
lection by using electric light flashes.
They have also been copied by the rail-
road companies who use burning signal
of red and green fire to warn approaching
trains of danger.
The scene is one of remarkable splendor
and of wonderful artistic effect. 1t Is said
that fire has never been painted with such
realism, this being even more effective than
In his famous story OF the EVIL Spirit.
shown here last year. It has the actual
glow of real fire; then the contrasting
moonlight n the picture Is something little
short of marvellous.
The figures are SO remarkably modelled
that each one appears to stand separate
and distinct from the other. and 1t seems
as though you might walk into the center
of the group AMI IN between the figures In
many cases At distance of thirty feet
it seems almost like tableau of living
figures.
Mr. Cooper. a pupil of the late Jules
Tavanier of Paris. Is probably the foremost
painter Of Indian subjects In America.

Area Of the Two Countries.

The area Of Panama Is 81. $50 square miles.
that Of Costa RIGA $4,000 square miles, and
the proposed greater republic would thus
have total area Of $3.50 square miles
The population of Panama is 100000. and
that OF Costa Rica 100000. SO that the two
combined would have a population of 7OO.-
600. Panama has great natural resources
which are in no way developed. and 1t is
reasonable to presume that with annexation
she would enjoy period Of prosperity such
as she has never known either under Co.
lombian domination or as an Independent
republic. In fact, one of the strongest argyll
ments advanced by Costa RIGA in favor
of annexation is that with Panama under
Costa Rican control foreign capital would
now into her territory and develop her
abundant natural resources

Loves Logic
BY ANTHONY HOPE.

The natchless author of the Dolly Dia-
logues has contributed to The Sunday Star a
new society dialogue adapted for stage pro-
duction. 1t relates the troubles OF the ultra
rich and shows in a charming way how two OF
them managed to get out of the difficulty of
being married for their money. There is in
this charming bit of conversation just the air
of realism and responsibility that made the
Dolly Dialogues such complete success

Englishman. 1t is combination of the pa
thetic and the comic such as is seldom seen.
