MISTAKES IN PICTURES.
Some Queer Blunders That Have Boon
Made by Artists.

A well meaning artist of the
eighteenth century painted pc
ture in which Abraham was depict
ed as about to sacrifice Isaac with a
blunderbuss. The actual event which
the artist had striven to depict ante
dated the use of firearms by about
5000 wears. There are also pictures
of the 1sraelites crossing the Red
sea. the men armed with muskets
and other weapons of modern man
ufacture. In the matter of costume
the early painters found a STUN
bling block. In the Edinburgh Ma
tional gallery is picture IN which
Pharaoh's daughter and her ladies
are arrayed in the long wasted
bodices and hooped skirts common
to Europe in the sixteenth century.
In another picture of the same
date, representing Joseph and HIS
Kindred In Egypt" which is hung
in the national collection in Lon
don. there is no trace of the dlstinc-
tive features of Egyptian architec-
ture about the buildings. They are
all Italian in type. In painting by
Paolo Neronese in the same gallery,
The Family of Darius at the Feet
of Alexander After the Battle of
Issus,' the women wear pointed
waists and enormously distended
skirts, although the incident oc-
CURED in the year 333 B. c. The
artist was a Venetian, and he drew
the Venetian costumes of his own
period-l52S-SS.
Raphael, Ike so many others,
drew his Madonnas, his saints and
his martyrs from Italian models and
clothed them in contemporary ltal-
ian costume, giving the figures us a
background the scenery with which
he was so familiar. 1t was only
when travellers came TO visit the
Holy Land and saw the people there,
unchanged in sentiment, habit and
customs for centuries, that they
came to realize that the pictures
were wrong-Chicago News.

PLAY FAST GAME
Alumni Defeats High School
Basket Ball Team

Saturday evening a large crowd
witnessed a fine game of basket ball
between the Greeley high school
team and the alumni of that school.
The final score was 46 to 26. AS the
score would indicate the high school
boys were little outclaSsed but,
nevertheless, put up good game.
The alumni team played in great
form and made several sensational
plays. AS this was the high school $
first game this season they look
promising and should make good
showing before the end of the season.

To the Editor of Greeley Tribune,

Dear Sir: ! have just read your
editorial in the Tribune of Dec.

a few words on behalf of the 'eX-
semi savage cattleman, with the

his veins, who does not want much
law except for the other fellow; and
also wants absolutely no expense to
his business.
A good many of your readers, like
myself are unfortunate enough to be
in the class you so graphically if
enormously, describe and from the
fact that Weld county is rated second
among all counties in the state for
the number of horses assessed and
third for the number Of cattle asses
sed, goodly number of these semi
savage people, that used to be, are
still in our midst, and from above
figures are not running their business
without any expense which-even If
they would wish to-and the thought
occurs to me that they would not be
so very different than any other class
of business men if they did try to
curtail their expenses as far as posSi

Countess to Marry Old Flame.

PITTSBURG, Nov. 22-Harry Wood
ruff, the stellar character in Brown
of Harvard" and former sweetheart of
Anna Gould, is going to marry the
Countess Castellane. This is the story
told by Pittsburg theatrical people,
who intimate they got it from Wood
ruff when he played here three weeks
ago but they refuse to be quoted.
Some say Woodruff was engaged to
marry Anna Gould and an arrange
ment was made to send him to Har-
ward for a more complete education
that he possessed.
The Gould fortune was placed at his
disposal and an agreement executed
that he would not make any attempt
to marry the daughter of the dead
financier, Jay Gould, until after he
was graduated from the exclusive ed
vocational institute.
When Anna Gould met Castellane
Woodruff was Tilted.

WHAT is PROBABLY A UNIQUE
RECORD Is MADE BY IA
GASCOGNE.

NEW YORK, Nov. 22.-The French
line steamship La Gascogne has arriv-
ed with probably tho smallest cabin
list on record. Mr.. and Mrs. ]. A.
Gibbons of Philadelphia, young elop-
ing couple just returning from a we'd
ding trip abroad, had the entire cabin
quarters to themselves, besides occu-
plying the most spacious state room on
the vessel, and had at their beck and
call "a stewards and three stewardess-
es. Throughout the voyage, despite
the small passenger list, there was a
punctillious observance of all the ships
social ceremonies, eliminating with
the captains dinner" the last night
of the trip.
The trip Of Mr.. and Mrs. Gibbons
was practically the same as if La Cas-
cogne had been a private yacht.
In the second cabin there was but
one passenger, Pierre Larraburu, who
became dissatisfied with the steerage
accommodations and took passage in
the second cabin the first day out.

TO CHECK HUGE FIRE LOSSES
Society Formed to Prevent Annua
Leak in Profits Of the American
People.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 22.-Organized
effort on a large scale to reduce fire
losses is represented in the Interna-
tional Society of Building Commits
sioners and Inspectors, of this city,
which has just held it's third annual
election and issued a report of its
progress. Free advice on the subject Of
fire prevention is offered ito any NUM-
cipality, association or individual, hav-
ing their own corporate or his person.
al interest enough at heart to ask for
it,"
The society is composed Of the chief
officers of the building departments Of
the large cities. Nearly every i'm
portant city in the country is repre-
sented as we'll as many cities in Eu-
rope, some of the members being from
England, Austria and Mexico. Its work
is directed by the chief executive Of
ficer, F. w. Fitzpatrick, one of the best
known consulting architects and au-
thorities on fire prevention in the Unit
ed States.
Through the society's efforts many
cities have already been induced to i'm
prove their building laws. The society
is also trying to get municipalities to
lower taxation on fireproof buildings,
while placing the maximum assessment
on fire traps which are a menace and
the protection of which involves big ex-
pense to every large city.
Speaking of the aims Of the society
and the need for such an organization,
Mr.. Fitzpatrick says: 'Year by year
we burn up actually one-half of as
much as we add. During the last
month some cities have far exceeded
that average. Atlanta erected $239,335
| worth of buildings in September, and
burned up $215,0OO in October; Buffa-
10 built $689,990 and burned $4,000
Our average annual fire loss is now
$2OO,00O,00O; this year it will exceed
$500,000,000. The International Society
Of Building Commissioners and Inspec-
tors was formed to carry on a cam
paign of education whereby the public
will become thoroughly familiar with
what constitutes fireproof construc-
ton and the need that exists for it."

MANAGEMENT OF EXPOSITION
EXPECTS TO ECLIPSE ALL
RECORDS.

NORFOLK, Va, Nov. 22.-Through
the courtesy and liberality Of James
A. Humphrey, general manager and
secretary of the Humphrey Advertise
ing company of Chicago, and secre-
tary of the Illinois jamestown commits
sion, a campaign of publicity setting
forth the splendors and unique features
of the Jamestown exposition has been
inaugurated which will be wide reach
ing in it's effect.
The plan comprises the display of
colored hangers and the distribution of
exposition literature in 4272 railway
stations in Illinois, Tennessee, Missis-
sippi, Nebraska, Arkansas, Texas, Ken
tucky,s Alabama, Missouri, Kansas,
Louisiana and Oklahoma. This offer
to exploit the exposition is made by
Mr.. Humphrey, for no other reason
than his unbounded enthusiasm in the
faith in it's effect as a determining
factor in the future commercial and
Industrial development Of the country.
In this way the attention Of more than
100000 persons who travel daily over
$4,000 miles of railroad will be at
tracted to the exposition and bring to
their notice it's greatness and novel
character and the important historical
event it celebrated-the founding of
the first English speaking settlement in
America, at jamestown, Va, in 1907,
wheer was planted the seed from which
has grown these United States.
1t is believed that this extensive
plan of publicity will be productive Of
materially increasing the already as
sured large attendance, and it is a
conservative prediction that the num-

number that attended the great world
fairs at st. Louis and Chicago.
Mr.. Humphrey, who made this liberal
offer, which represents a money value
of $4,000, is a Virginian by birth, and
like many other sons of the Mother of
States, located in the west where he
attained both fortune and business
fame, and by hard work, tenacity of
purpose and close application has de-
veloped one of. the largest advertising
| concerns in the country which controls
great trunk lines that embrace a ter
ritory extending from the Great Lakes
to the Gulf. Although Mr.. Humphreys
has spent many years of his life amid
the hustling and enterprising environ
ment Of the west, yet his devotion and
| loyalty to the Old Do minion has never
faltered, and as evidence of the fact
he has voluntarily contributed the
gratuitous services of his business in
| terests in furthering the success of Vir-
ginia's great celebration.
