Couture and His Dainty Pupil.

An old pupil of Couture tells how the
master came into his schoolroom one
day when the model was in exception.
ally good condition, the light especially
fine and the circumstances Of the Sc
,ance altogether auspicious. AS he en-
tered one of the students got up and
went to the tub of water in the corner,
leaving all the rest buried in their
work. What are you going to do?"
asked Couture roughly. The student
showed his hands, which had some
paint on them, and replied that he was
going TO wash them. Couture dabbed
his thumb in some paint on the palette
Of the nearest student and made a
smear on the dainty pupils forehead.
You'd better wash your face, too
he said. The face washing was the
last act of the students when they had
finished their work for the day. The
dainty pupil took the hint to heart,
apologized and sat down at his easel
without visiting the tub. If he had
not done so he would never have en-
tered the school again.

complex conditions may enter in fixing
the general trend of each series in
different districts.
Where evidence Of a fracture or
fault exists, with the direction inter-
minable, this may be approximately
obtained, thus: Determine the bear
ings Of joints Of rock outcrops in the
vicinity. The member having a strike
most nearly coincident with that of the
major fractures Of that section will
most probably approach that Of the
fracture, whose strike is to be deter
mined; or where conditions suggest a
different strike, it will approach that
Of the one Of the three corresponding
members, Of a set CONSTRUCTED as indi-
Gated above) which comes nearest
filling the given conditions.
1t has been the practice heretofore
to cross-cut at right angles in both
directions from the strike of fracture
or fault so as to cut parallels or semi
parallels. Where cross fractures also
enter the problem, this is Inadequate.
With the constant relations between
the cross-fractures known, it resolves
itself into simple matter to determine
the direction necessary for the smallest
amount Of cross-cutting to locate all
possible fractures. For exokinetic
tension assures, prosecuting in four
directions at an acute angle of 30 deg.
with the strike Of the fracture would
fill these conditions.

Crushed When Giving Thanks.
Just previous to the market disas-

through the streets, the people giving
thanks for their deliverance and
averting what appeared to be pending
greater disaster. The market cover
ed 500 feet square, rooted. The space
within was surrounded by stalls filled
with men, women and children, buy

trade is most brisk.
Identification of bodies in many
instances is impossible. Many are
reduced to pulp, and nearly all badly
mutilated.
The people are frantic, many at
tributing the disaster to the fact that
during the eruption yesterday they
repudiated the saints and hurled an
athemas in rage at their patron saints
for deserting them.
