The collection numbers about 100
pieces, most of them still encased in the
barrels in which they have been stored
They are of many sizes as well as many
shapes, some of the objects being of very
large size.
Of the small number already opened
one has been chosen for illustration. to
give an IDEA of the shape of some of the
ornamentatiOn. The color and texture,
of course, cannot be shown, and in the
fiat the mysterious charm of form that
characterizes some of the specimens in
fascinating degree is necessarily lost,
yet the practiced eye may imagine it.
The form of the body of the vase with
the damaged handle here shown is par
ticularly graceful, and makes an artis-
tic appeal, in sharp contrast to the
cruidity and grotesqueness of some Of
the other objects. It's color, too, is beau

Of this particular piece is of wondrous
charm, and with the purity of form
makes it easy to understand the refer
ences made by some writer's to the SIM
ilarity of some of the Peruvian potter
les to Etruscan manufactures of clay
The piece is curious, too, in showing
no seam where top and bottom may

Ell or cast may have been melted and
run out. The vase is hollow and sonor-

EMBARRASSING SITUATIONS:
ABOUT POSTTOFFlCE AP- IS
POINTMENTS.

The following telegram from Wash

Pioneer Press :.
Washingtonl Jan. 27.-some embar-
RAISING situations relative to postofice
appointments have developed mere
within The last few days, and charges
that members have been tradin 2
votes for patronage have been made.
An instance of the kind was told
today by Northwestern representa-
tive. He bad received notice from
the postmaster general that q va.
cancy was about to occur IN a Ger
tain postof8ce, and he vas invited to
recommend 40 appoint nent: rh e
statement was made that the in
cumbent's record was bad and that
q change would have to be made in
the office. Some time prior to thlp,
the representative had been Informed
that the postmaster In this particular
office came within the claes that the
departme desired to retain in its
service. What caused the change OF
front, the representative now is try.
Ing to ascertain. The member for
warded to the postmaster the depart
ment letter In which the announce
ment was made that the latter's re-
cord was such that he could not be
appointed. The representative re-
ceived q reply from the postmaster
that shot right to the point.
II know that the administration
wants votes very badly now.'' he
wrote, land that 1t is willing to give
pcstmasterships for them. If you
are not willing to indurse me in the
6rst instance, you should have told
me- So
The postmaster charged that the rep.
resentative had deliberately conspired
with the departments to toe end that
his record should be attacked and
he forced out of cffice. the RESPONSE
bility attaching to the department
and not to the representative.
The representative in question eaid
that the change of attitude on the
part of the department. was as astonish-
ing to him as 1t was to the postmas-

The only way I can account for
it, he said, is that charges have
been preferred against the postmaster
by the patrons Of the office. 1 intend

PERU Wan PO1'I'EERIES
SPECIMENS OF ANCIENT ART
SHOWN IN NEW YORK.
Valuable Collection Has Been Ex-
hibited Only Once Before in 43
Years-Objects of Great In
terest to Antiquarians.

New York.-A collection of pottery
has come, to light in this city which is
bound to arouse interest within the ever
widening circle of those who give atten-
ton to this form of artistic expression.
The collection is now on private exhi-
bition in an apartment on Central Park,
and it's ultimate destination is at the
present time unknown
Rather, it should be said that part
of the collection has been shown lately
to those whose interest leads them to
make a visit to the borderland of the
park, for the greater portion of it as yet
remains packed up, as it has been for
many years. But the whole will pres
emily be displayed, and whether it will
of private collectors remains to be seen.
The pottery is the manufacture of the
ancient Peruvians, and although it has
been in the United States for 43 years,
the collection has been publicly shown
but once in this country-at the Gen.
tennial exposition in Philadelphia.
Private collections of old Peruvian pot
terry are comparatively few-partly,
perhaps, because of the general idea
that the inherent interest in such an
cient work is chiefly archaeological.
But the two collections on public exhibi-
ton in New York-a loan collection at
the Metropolitan Museum of Art and
such part of the collection owned by
the American Museum of Natural His
tory as is displayed in the cases in the
public galleries of that museum-at-
tract good deal of interested atten-
ton.
The collection, which for purposes OF
reference may be called the Colville col
lection, and to some persons is known
as such, was brought together by New
York merchant of that name who in the
