THE OLD MASTERS.
Miserable Compensation For Their
Grand Works Of Art.

Miserable Compensation For Their
Grand Works Of Art.
II make more money in day than
Michael Angelo made in a month, !"
said a popular illustrator. 1--WE been
studying up the wages those old chaps
got. 1t is amazing.
Michael Angelo was paid $40 a
month while doing the cartoons of the
battle Of Pisa, and Leonardo, who
helped him, got the same rate. They
were both locked for lateness and off
days, but there was no overtime allow
ance. Correggio got for his Christ In
the Garden $7.25. Carracci's 'Resur,
rection' only brought the painter $3.50.
Albert Durer for his pen and ink por,
traits was not paid in cash. A bag Of
-four, hundred oysters, pair of
boots-Durer would gladly do your
portrait on such a system of remunera
ton.
.'Rembrandt's top notch price was
$475. He got that for his Night
Watch
"Velasquez worked chiefly for the
Spanish government He was paid at
the average rate Of $35 a picture.
Think of it! Thirty-fve dollars for the
'Rokeby Venusv'- Minneapolis Jour
nal.

TO REMEDY SITUATION
Important Steps Taken by New
York Financial Interests.
CONDITIONS MORE NORMAL
clearinghouse Authorizes the issue Of
Loan Certificates and Gold Inn
portations Are Arranged.

New York, Oct. 26.-The stock ex-
change and the banks closed for the
day without any further failures of
Importance, with considerable i'm
provement in the stock market and
with several important remedial
measures taken or agreed upon to
strengthen the financial situation. The
only reverse of the day was the sus-
pension of the Terminal bank, Brook
lyn, a new and small institution with
out any Importance in the general
financial world. Already arrangements
for the importation of gold are well
under way and it is hoped this will
furnish the relief needed. 1t is I'M
derstood that the treasury department
will, as heretofore, advance the gold
for immediate use SO as to save the
time occupied in transit from Eu-
rope.
Meanwhile, as a precautionary
measure, although not regarded vitality
essential, the clearinghouse has au-
thOrized the issuance Of loan certifi-
Gates. This means that the clearing
house banks are to present a united
front in this emergency and that the
aggregate resources of all Of them are
to be pledged for the maintenance of
each.
The runs upon the Trust Company
of America and the Lincoln Trust COM
pany continued in very much abated
form, but both institutions met all de-
mands.

BIG CONCERNS IN TROUBLE
Financial Circles in Pittsburg Greatly
Agitated.

A9ltateQ.
Pittsburg, Oct. PA furry in To-
cal financial circles caused by the en-
barrassment of four concerns of the
Westinghouse interests was quickly
ended by the prompt action of the
Pittsburg Clearing House association
and the Pittsburg Stock Exchange.
The Westinghouse Electric and
Manufacturing company, the West
inghouse Machine company and the
Security Investment company, a hold
ing company for the Westinghouse in
terests, now are in the hands of re-
ceiver appointed by Judge Ewing of
the United States circuit court. A
fourth concern, the Nernst Lamp com
pany, will be turned over to to re-
ceivers today.
The Pittsburg Stock Exchange,
which was closed promptly when in
formed of the situation by the Pitts
burg Clearing House association, will
likely remain closed today. This ac-
ton is taken for the purpose of pre-
venting an unnecessary sacrifice of
values by heavy liquidation Of
stocks.
Statements issued by Mr.. George
Westinghouse, prominent bankers, Of
ficers of the Stock Exchange and the
clearing house committee show con-
clusively that the financial situation
here is sound and there is no danger

A MARRIAGE FICTION.
The Old Time Notion That Matches
Are Made In Heaven.

The polite fiction obtains that mar.
riages are made in heaven. This ro-
mantle viewpoint is particularly popu-
lar in America, where it is held to be
highly improper for parents to make
any move toward securing good hus-
bands for their daughters and immod-
est for girls to manifest any interest
in the subject themselves.
The conventional theory is that the
matter is on the knees of the gods and
that in due season husbands will be
provided like mamma in the wilderness
for sustenance of the faithful Unfor-
tunately this miracle does not always
come Oft for every woman. The supply
