He Is putting the finishing touches
to picture of the battle OF San Juan

for framing he will take II to Wash

the government. According to De
>Perhacs, his is the only one extant
painted by an eyewitness.
Vereschagin's famous canvas was
made from description. and, according
TO De Perhacs, the only accurate thing
about II Is the time of day-noon. The
spirit OF battle, also, Is said to be ex-
cellent, but the topography is very i'm
perfect
The Hungarian was commissioned
by New York art firm to get Cuban
campaign color during the Spanish.
American war, and he was attached
to the staff OF Gen. Lawton as a
non-combatant when the famous dash,
led by Col. Roosevelt. was made up
San Juan. He viewed the attack from
an artists standpoint with the object
of perpetuating II on canvas.
De Perhacs has worked periodically
ever since then upon his painting,
which Is OF immense size-12 by IA
feet. All the work was done out OF
doors.
The artist Is well known in the east,

the high price at which corn Is selling
Is holding the feeding proposition In
check. Fewer cattle will be fed this
year and II is hard to indicate the
source from which next springs sup

For several weeks The Times has
been urging farmers and feeders, who
are In need Of sheep and lambs. to
buy them while prices were low! A
speedy recovery in values. as soon
as the glut from the west fell on, was
predicted. Recent activity In the
wool markets OF this country and OF
the old world was mentioned az a con-
vincing argument In favor Of a rapid
iy hardening market as soon as the
pressure of burdensome receipts was
removed In the light OF recent events
the position taken by this paper
seems to have been we'll chosen.
Prices for sheep and lambs already
show an upward movement from the

Of Col Duncan 8. Cooper.
NASHVILLE, Tenn, Nov. lO.-On
one OF the citys main streets. only q
square from the state capitol, Ed
ward w. Carmack, ex-United States
senator and editor OF the Nashville
Tennesseean late yesterday afternoon
was shot down and killed by Robin
Cooper, aged 81, son OF Col. Duncan
b. Cooper, whom Carmack had at
tackled editorially In his paper ASIDE
ing factor in the Democratic ma
chine.
The shooting was characterized by
the cowardliness usual In such en-
counters In this section OF the coun.
try. Young Cooper. who was accom-
panied by his father, who was also
armed, evidently intended TO give
Carmack no chance for his life, cover
ing him with his revolver, but Car
mack was too quick, and drawing his
revolver fred two shots, one OF which
went wild. the other nipping young
Cooper In the flesh Of his shoulder.
Carmack lay dead in the street where
he had fallen. while Col. Cooper sup
pirted his collapsing son to doc
tors ONCE, where 1t was found his
wound amounted to nothing. Young
Cooper was rushed frantically to
hospital In an ambulance. while his
Jagged ather' was locked up at police
Headquarters. The colonel had not
fired shot. lending only his moral

Row over Liquor interests.
The dastardly assassination and the
outcome Of political row over the
LIQUOR question. Carmack, who was
one of the best known men in Ten
nessee, was a champion of statewide
prohibition. Col. Cooper, the assas-
sins father. was a leader In the re-
cent Democratic primary when Car
mack was defeated for the guberna-
torial nomination by Gov. Malcolm r.
Patterson. candidate. II Is alleged. OF
the liquor interests.
Col. Cooper. as soon as Carmack
had begun to attack him through the
columns of his paper. threatened him
with violence unless he should cease
using his name. CarmAck paid no at
tention TO the threats and on the morn
Ing Of his death had published a re-
newed attack on Cooper, Sr. No at
tack had been made on young Cooper,
who Is an obscure lawyer.
Great excitement was caused by the
tragedy, as Mr. Carmack had recently
beer before the people In every Sec
ton OF the state in series OF joint de-
bates with Gov. Patterson. Feeling
between the saloon interests and the
temperance forces ran high in the re-
cent primary.
Tragedy May Abolish Saloons.
The Tennessee legislature will meet
early in January. and 1t is freely pre-.
dicted that Mr.. Carmacks assassina-
ton will result In driving saloons out
OF Chattanooga. Memphis. Nashville

the state where liquor Is now sold.

LIGHTING THE CORRIDORS.
New System Installed at State, War
and Navy Building.

Capt. Poole. the engineer officer in
charge Of the big granite building con-
tanning the State. War and Navy de-
partments. has introduced a new system
Of illumination into the long dark CORR
doris Of that immense establishment. Tho
corridors receive very little natural light
and various systems have been tried for
their economical illumination. The --latest
system. involving the use of ordinary
carbon filament lights. was not satisfac-
tory Those lamps. including the large
chandeliers to which they were attached
have been removed from the corridors on
the first and second floors. and chain
drop Tungsten incandescen: lamps sub
stituted, with decided advantage. These
lamps are each 30 candlepower. and IT,,
of them have been installed on the two
floors. They are inclosed in l2-incf
globes with holophane refectors and
ground-glass bottoms. An sO-candepoweI
lamp is suspended at each of the main
entrances. Capt. Poole says that the
new lamps require less current and give
more than double the illumination of the
lamps formerly in use. AS further steI
to brighten up the dark corridors he has
decided to paint the walls in light buff
and the columns in imitation of ivory
1t will cost about $1,000 a floor for this
improvement and he says he will try II
on the first floor with available funds.

MAY RIDE WITHOUT LIGHTS.
Letter Carriers Assigned to Nigh
Service Are Exempt.

Mai Sylvester has issued an order d.
rectine the attention Of members OF the
police department to the following pro-
vision of the police regulations:
THE letter carriers assigned to Meh'
service by the Post Office Department.
while actually engaged in such service
shall not be required to display light
upon their cycles. bicycles or tricycles.'
1t is explained by the superintendent OF
police that the regulation does not ap-
pear in the current edition Of the regu-
lations, although 1t has never been re-
scinded by the Commissioners. The cap
tains Of the several precincts We're no.
titled to read the regulation which was
adopted nine years ago and to INSTRUCT
their officers to govern themselves &C
cordingly.
Mai. Sylvester found 1t necessary to
call the attention Of members of the force
to the regulation because several letter
carriers had been arrested by the Ana
costa police for failure to have lights
on their wheels.
The carriers were in uniform at the
time and when their cases were investi-
gated at the Police Court the assistant
corporation counsel declared that the
police had not acted properly. the Dis
trict Commissioners having held that the
carriers were on duty while going to
and returning from their homes. The
charges were nolle pressed and the police
were told to observe the provisions of the
regulation.
