ARTIST NOT FOND OF LABOR

Turner Pasted on a Picture the Prin,
OF Vase He Wanted.
On one of Mr.. Edward Moran's Wis.
Its to London he made a careful study
of Turner.
They stopped in front of "Childe
Harold's Pilgrimage" and Mr.. Moran,
after examining the canvas closely,
made the startling assertion that the
vase to the right was not part of
the picture, but was pasted on it.
Mr.. Warnham laughed the idea to
scorn and said it was absurd. Mr..
Moran persisted that he was right and
Wagered dinner and a bottle of wine
that he could prove 1t if he were given
the opportunity.
The wager was accepted. The pic
ture was taken down, the glass was
removed, and, to the establishment of
the keeper, Mr.. Moran raised the edge
OF the paper, over which, surely
enough. the vase had been painted.
Evidently, to save himself the trou.
BILE of drawing the object, Turner had
cut the vase out Of some print, skill
fully hiding the point of juncture.-

Tricks Of Autograph Hunters.

Some autograph hunters tricks are
revealed In the Connoisseur. George
Eliot was taken in by lady who en-.
listed her sympathy in fictitious social
work. Another wrote to Ruskin .
touching letter of supplication which
ELECTED no reply She wrote again In
a tone Of almost piteous entreaty,
but still silence. Then she adopted
another name and address, became
the bogus secretary of an imaginary
art club for young students in a prov
incial town, and invited Mr.. Ruskin
to come down and deliver an address.
The simple-minded author wrote back
long, delightful letter, asking to be
excused from giving an address un.
til the club had made some progress,
but imparting much admirable coun.
sci and useful rules of guidance.

~ DICTATES OF CONSCIENCE
Gen. Gordon Went Unarmed THROUGH
War In China.

War In China.
In some "reminiscences of Sir Fred
erick st. John, a diplomatist who
served his country (England) well, we
have tie facts which prompted Gen.
Gordon to carry no weapon but a cane
when leading the imperial troops dur,
Ing the TAPPING struggle.
When acting in conjunction with
the Chinese general San-ko-lin.sin,
against either Nankin or Foochow,
Gordon received message from the
rebel leaders offering submission IL
their lives were guaranteed Having
obtained the consent of the Chinese
commander, he agreed. The town sur.
rendered, and the three rebel chiefs
appeared before San-ko-lin.sin. He,
seeing that they had not shaved their
heads in sign of submission, had them
edecapitated on the spot Whereupon,
exasperated beyond control by such
treachery, Gordon armed himself with
revolver, and was Fastening to the
generals tent with the intention of
chastising him in the most summary
manner for his breach of faith, when
suddenly he paused, and coming on
reflection, to the conclusion that his
contemplated act was simple murder
ne threw away his weapon and regis.
tered a vow that SO long as he re.
NAMED in China, he would never
again carry any weapon more formid.
able than a cane"

Compliment from the Heart.

If there is one place more than an
other where the term ''lady" carries
mighty little weight it is over on the
East Side of Manhattan. The qualities
that are naturally associated with this
designation in less congested sections
of the city are recognized readily
enough, but the term itself is held in
contempt. This, at least, is the opin-
ion of settlement worker who has
spent several years years on the East
Side. "The most sincere compliment
ever received" she says, was at
meeting of working girls where, when
one Of the audience referred to me as
a lady, the chairman Indignantly re-
piled:
