that all unions among employees of the public are

Columbia university in New York city. Il has
been said on good authority that In the event OF
either Senator Platt Depew resignng Prof
Butler would succeed to the position.
A year ago Prof. Butler made trip to Ger

since resulted in President Roosevelt sending
American educator to Berlin university. Prof
Buffers observations led him to believe that Ger

FRENCH GIRL ARTIST WINS FAME

Although she is only 25. and one might think,
altogether too pretty to be real genius. one
question the claim of Mile. Louise Lavrut to
be of the most gifted women artists OF the
day.
Having won some OF the highest honors in
the French art world Mile. Lavrut recently went
to London to give an exhibition of her paintings
that she has the backing of the king himself 1t Is
not surprising that her visit proved more or less
of triumph. Commissions for portraits OF lead
ing members of the fashionable world are coming
in faster than they can be executed by the young
French artist.

good relations with all the powers, and
added:
There is one friendship which is of es-

relations with that country never have
been better. Never, indeed, do l think
have they been so good as they are at
this moment The incident, fresh In
your memory need be referred to only
for the sake of saying that the moral
of it was: This is how different things
are now, happily. from those times when
an incident like that would have been the

torship of the Episcopal Church of the
Advent, arrived in Birmingham last night
and is the guest of Robert Jenison at
Glen Iris. He will conduct tine services

I obecome rector of Monumental church,
which position he has held ever since.
Monumental is one of the historic
chruches OF the Virginia capital. 1t was
built in 1914 on the site of the theatre
which was burned in 1911. The governor
of Virginia and many other notable citi-
zens persisted in the flames and the
church was erected to their memory. The
ashes of the dead are buried under the
great porch Of the church.
Up to fifteen years ago. Monumental
parish was rich and fashionable, but
fashion gradually moved up town and
the congregation of Monumental church
steadily diminished When Dr. Evans
was installed as rector the Sunday at
tendance numbered only about 300. 1t
now numbers 900 or more. DIR. Evans en-
Joys the reputation of being at once a

federate soldiers have In manner been
forced into second place"

brought TO the attention Of the Richmond
reunion this year and that pending action
by the veterans at this convention he
will abstain from appointing a chief

tinues, that the expenses of the reunion
cities be reduced and he Ghe generaD

outlay for entertainment of all sponsors
and maids of honor must be borne by
those who make the appointments"
The second order announces the date
