Is it known generally that works Of
art were well paid for in ancient times :?
A German review furnished recently
some particulars about that question.
Polygnote of Thasos, who lived about
450 b. c., refused, 1t Is true, any pay
ment for his works and declared that
he was sufficiently rewarded with the
title of citizen of Athens, which had
been conferred on him. But such dis
interestedness was seldom initiated.
Thirty years later the painter Zeuxls Of
Heracleum was called to the court Of
Archelaus l., king of Macedonia. He
received for his frescoes in the palace
Of Pella 400 mines, about $1,000. Nina
son of Elathea paid $4,000 for Bat
tie With the Persians," which he had
ordered from Aristides, the leader Of
the Theban school. Pamphilus Of Sycl-
one gave a course of lectures on paint
ing. Each pupil paid for attendance
one talent. or $1,000 year. Apelles re-
celved twenty gold talents, about $780,
600, for portrait of Alexander l., or
dered by the city of Ephesus.

against an accident of this character
great care Is exercised in extracting

around a small round stick. This stick
is turned very slowly for days, or even
weeks. until tho entire worm has been
extracted.

PHILA. MAN HELPED
CAPTURE JEFF DAVIS
His Story Terminates Con.
troversy as 10 WI,o Earn.
ed That Honor.
PAPERS TO PROVE 1T

After controversy extending over
more than a .ore of years, the honor
of capturing jefferson Davis has gone,
by virtue of indisputable proof which
they hold, to George Rinke, of De-
troit, and Caspar Knobel, who lives
at 2073 East Cumberland street, Phil.
adelphia.
In the evidence possessed by these
men are their discharge papers, which
set forth the fact they consummated
the capture of the Confederate Presid-
ent and the check stubs from the War
Department, giving them a share of
the reward offered for his apprehen-
sion.
Since their comradeship in the war
these two men had not met until 1902,
when Knobel was enabled to find
Rinke with the assistance of the Pen
sion Department.
Since that time they have CORE
spondcd regularly, and have united
in a statement giving the true story
of Davis capture so that history shall
no longer be at fault.
As tod by Knobel, this story is
briefly as follows:
We were both members of de-
tachment from the Fourth Michigan
Cavalry, which went from Macon,
Ga, on the evening of May Z, 1865,
to search for the fleeing Rebel Pre- :
ident.
On the morning of the 10th, after
three days chase, it was decided TO
send out three small detachments from
the main body, Rnke and l were
with twelve other men in one of these
small detachments.
Our party had gone but a short
distance when we discovered dying
camp fire. Rinke and | were picked
by the lieutenant from the detach-
ment to make an inspection. We
rode along quietly and suddenly pull
ed up before few tents that showed
white in the black of the night.
| dismounted, and while Rinke
held my mule, | tore open the flap
of the first tent. 1t was the one oc-
cupied by Mr.. Davis, his wife and
family.
| remained on guard at the en-
trance to Mr.. Davis tent. Mrs.
Davis threw shawl over her hus-
band shoulders.
AT this iuncture Corporal Munger
rode up, and, pointing his revolver
at the figure in the shawl, demanded.
care you Jefferson Davis ?"
The reply came, 81 think you have
no right to ask that question. !"
"Answer or | shall fire." was
Munger's retort, and it was success
ful. Mrs. Davis was badly frighten-
ed, and had thrown herself between
Munger and her husband, exclaiming,
Eyes, he is. Why don't you tell
them, papa -
In admitting his identity, Davis
said: 81 suppose you consider il
brave to charge train of defenseles:
women and children; but it is theft
it is vandalism"
l received S293 as my share of the
$780, 900 reward. The remainder
was divided among the 419 men in
our regiment, though they had moi
actually participated. Each of tho
officers received $4,000. Rinke got
