Eureka, Jan 13.-The shortage of coal

This will not reach the collar of the shaft

ARTISTS PLAN
FOR new HOME
American Association of Paris
Has Scheme for Construct
ing a Club House.
HAS AN ENDOWMENT FUND
APPEAL is NOW ISSUED FOR
CONTRIBUTIONS.

Paris. Jan. 13.--As happens TO every in
stitution which meets a want. the Amer
lean Art association of Paris, "A rue Notre
Dame des Champs. finds its scope extend
ing in such degree that it must consider
the question of seeking new quarters.
This matter has just been discussed at
the annual meeting of the board of gov
errors. Various schemes were examined,
ana 1t was eventually decided at once to
begin collecting funds for the purchase
of site and the erection thereon of a
permanent home for the association. An
endowment fund was created with a nli-
cleus of Loco francs set aside from the
geherai FUNDS of the association.
Call Issued for Help.
Having thus begun on the laudable prin-
ciple of ''Aide-to le ciel taidera." the
board OF governors now turns for sup

10 appreciate the calls made upon the
association ii is necessary to state that
every year there are about LOO American
students in the French capital studying
painting, sculpture. illustration. architec-
ture and music. As a rule the benefit of
these studies is not limited to the student
himself. for on his return to America he
becomes an effective factor in the dis
semination of a knowledge and apprecia-
ton OF art in all parts of the country
The logical conclusion is that to further
the work of the American Art associa-
ton is to render service to the cause of
art in America.
AS the number OF students increases the
association finds greater and greater diff
ficulty in giving them accommodation
Besides offering second home for the So
cial intercourse of its members, it's Ii
brary, reading-rooms and restaurant are
well patroniZed. while the numerous eX-
hibitions which it organizes every year
tend to raise the standard of the work
produced and give talent an opportunity
of securing recognition For all these
reasons the board of governors appeals
for subscriptions to the endowment fund,
to be sent to the honorary secretary.
New Officers Elected.
At the same meeting new officers of
the association were elected as follows:

Rate Bill Debate.

The subject Of federal judges came up
for discussion in the senate when the
rate bill was before that body for con.
sideration. AS a compromise between the
contention of Bailey that congress had
the right absolutely to prevent a congress
sional court from issuing injunctions and
the contention of Spooner that this power
could not be taken from the courts, an
agreement was reached providing that at
least two circuit judges must sign the
restraining order.
The extraordinarily high character of
the rate bill debate attracted attention
all over the country. and ii was univer-
sally styled one Of the greatest I'm our
history. After it was over one of the
most eminent of the senator's. who was
receiving congratulations for the senate

How to Hang Pictures.

Oil paintings and water colors
should never be allowed to become
intimate companions. but the latter
may hobnob with etchings, pastels,
drawings, photographs, and even en-
cravings, without losing their dignity.
An oil painting of exceptional excel
lence should be given a special posi-
ton.
Water colors and pastels in delicate
tints and black and whites and soft
etchings should be properly placed In
wall spaces where the light Is strong
est. The darker and more heavily
shaded pictures should hang farther
away from the light From the family
colored pictures in the clearest light,
the glance should be involuntarily
but skillfully led to the deeper-toned
pictures farther back In the room.
Sometimes, however, a dark corner
that needs Frightening may demand
a lighter picture or spot of brilliant
coloring may be risked. A pen-and-ink
sketch with white mat fills In well In
such a case. Harmony must be stud
led, and the position Of picture well
considered before its place is decided
One with broad, white mat should
never be hung next to a carbon in a
heavy black frame. The eye must be
led, not jerked, from one picture to
another.
