The Oriental Rusmakers Get New

Chicago, May 9.-(Special Corre- spondence of The Republican)-That practical, commercial America is to- day supplying the inspiration and de- sisns Tor some of the best industrial art works of the Orient is the inter- esting fact that has just come to light as result of an investigation into the Oriental rug industry, renors a Chicago dealer Trained designers are now regularly retained, it appears. by several of the large importing houses to supply patterns for the most valu- able Persian and Indian rugs, the prop CT designing of which is fast becoming a lost art in Asia, the land of its birth. Nhlcago is the center of this work. Whlch has grown so important that special training for it is now provided py the Art Institute of Chicago, the largest art school in the country. The men and women who intend to adopt this profession are given a complete grounding in the theory and practice of design and the principles of histori- cal ornament such as the simple r1lg- Weavers of Asia Minor and Khorassan never dreamed The designs produced by these workers, which are Iruer to the old standards than most of the modern Oriental creations, are sent to the East, where they are shipped back to the Windy City. The demoraliza- ton of the rug industry Of Asia through the wholesale introduction of aniline dyes and a growing spirit of western commercialism, is largely re- sponsible for this move on the part of the importers. it is asserted, although the desire of American art patrons to possess rugs of special design is also an important factor As a result of this there is 8 growing demand for competent designers. the effect of which is shown in the report of the Art Institute authorities that students are Hooking to Chicago in increasing numbers to train themselves for posi- uohs in the broad field of the indus trial arts.

More parks and fewer keep off the grass" signs were endorsed by the committee on parks and boulevards Of the Illinois legislature after touring the present park system of Chicago. Breathing spots as a city's asset were discovered to be invaluable when the figures and the parks themselves. were submitted to official scrutiny. At one park a legislator exclaimed: Just one objection to this place. There's a
 keep off the grass sign. I'd like to see the kids rolling on all the grass in every one Of our parks if they care to. Let them have all the fun they can. That's what the parks are for.
 This view later was endorsed by the committee and the signs, already in frequent. will be still fewer. The committee of solOns, recalling their own youth. grew enthusiastic at one park where the children have three acres for recreation. reading room, lunch room, auditorium and gymna- sium. Green grass. swimming pools and recreation with relation to the cost of policing and of sanitationy of the city were discovered to be prac- tical as well as desirable. million dollars more for the west side parks is asked although Chicago already has 3, ,196 acres in it's park systems-1,S 1885 on the South Side. 626 acres on the West Side. 5SS on the North Side, in cluding Lincoln Park and it's zoo. and IF acres in small playgrounds and squares.

Claims upon insurance companies for recent windstorm losses, which are now pouring in upon Chicago offices. tell a story of damage and disaster the extent of which even now is Iaot-fully known. The recent gales which swept the country brought trouble in their wake not only to the victims of storm, but to those companies, which now face severe losses. The cloud had its silver lining for the companies, how ever, inasmuch as it again stimulated the writing of tornado insurance, which at one time was general. especially in the Mississippi valley states. = For a number of years tornado insurance was very profitable, but this gradually resulted in an increase in commissions, and with the enormous losses in the past few months, the chances Tor prof it's are being materially reduced. One company paid s42,000 in a single storm this year. These losses, combined with the Chicago elevator losses by fire, have given several Chicago depart ments the worst week in their history for claims.

Indians had really surprised them and
appeared in such numbers that the lit

on hasty consultation decided that 1t

The Indians spread out and gallantly

the horses at the fort were pretty well
run down from many cbases after In

At daylight rode up to the COM
manding officers quarters. and Cap
tim Ovenshine introduced me for the
Alst time to General Custer. The gen.
eral, seeing that was mounted on q
mule said to Captain Ovenshine:
Captain. I haven't got time to diliy
daily aiong the road with a mule.
saa that my guide here is mounted on
q mule. I want him to have horse.
and q good one."
[ said, General, this is the best
horse at the fort. and assure you
chat he won't be much behind you
wien you reach Fort Larned."
The captain explained to the general
that the horses were In pretty bad
condition at the fort and that he bad
heard me brag SO much about that
mule that he felt quite sure that the
beast was all right.
The general seemed little displeas-
ed and said, "Well, If that Is the best
you have will have to put up with
It.
{ We mounted and started out on the
road. For the first fifteen miles to
smoky Hill river there was q good
wagon road. and as we rode along the
general asked me numerous questions
in regard to the country and the In
dians. and thus we talked along mile
after mile. But the general was going
ae. q pretty rapid gait, and my mule
was not very speedy on the start. but
knew he would finish all right. So
when the general was not looking !
would put the spurs to the mule a lit

if the men required any water they
had better ill up their canteens. which
they did.
