direction of the States affairs. 1t OriSi-
mated in dersiOn with his enemies, and
was spoken with Il sneer by them
whenever a fresh pardon received the
executive signature. But. like certain
historical terms. such as Rebel and
"Roundhead,' applied in contempt by
enemies. it has been accepted by the
friends of Gov. Patterson, and they de-
clare their readiness to blazon 1t on his
banner in the approaching campaign
and go before the people on the issue

Gov. Patterson has used the pardon
ing power freely since the pen was
placed in his hand He has pardoned
some noted murderers and "crooks, y
ana in some cases undoubtedly deserves
some measure of the censure he
has received from a hostile press and
from his political enemies. He has al

Sculptor's African Fad.

Herbert Ward. the English sculptor
who has his studio in Paris, devotes
himself chiefly to modelling negro men
and women He has made statues from
African natives of every race. from Da-
honey to the Sudan and from the Con-
go to Zululand.
Besides. ne has formed a collection of
art works produced by negroes. Some
he has acquired himself in his travels
in Africa: many have been given to
him by explorers, notably by Stanley,
whom he once accompanied part of the
way on one of his African expeditions.
A feature of the collection is the iron
work. chiefly weapons. There are lance
heads. arrows, battleaXes and stars
with sharp points in all directions to be
hurled ut enemies. The forms OF all
the weapons are artistic. They are
beautifully modelled on sharp-pointed
leaves and grasses. the beaks Of birds
and the claws of animals.
SO closely are the outlines followed
that the sculptor says a person ac-
quainted with the flora and fauna OF
the country can name the pattern on
which each blade was outlined. The
daggers are usually shaped like the
lotus leaf.
Another curious object is the African
drum found with many tribes. 1t l.
