HIGH ART ON THE HIGH SEAS
DECORATIONS A FEATURE OF
NEW STEAMER.
North German Lloyd Liner George
Washington Marvel Among
Modern Ocean Vessels.

| High art on the high seas is the new
| idea of the North German Lloyd Steam
| ship Company. which. tired of the pur-
| poseless interior decorations of trans
atlantic liners. has esta blished new sys-
| tenn of adjoining its vessels Following
| the style set i'll the Kronprinzessin Ce-
| ellie, the great express steamship, which
| was the first ship to be adorned in the
manner approved by her owners, um-
| usually beautiful decorations are to he
| seen in the George Washington, the larg-
est German steamship af1oat.
To Prof. Bruno Paul belongs the ar
tistic honor for the achievement He WAS
selected by the North German Lloyd Off
Gals after a competition with other ar
| lists and was placed in charge of the
interior decorations Of all the company
vessels. The style Of interior decoration
and furnishing adopted recalls the Amer
can colonial type, the substantial, simpl.
and dignified elegance Of this period hay
ing displaced the more ostentatious gilt
ter and glamour which has been such d
noticeable feature of steamship decora-
ton.
The roominess so characteristic of the
colonial is typical Of the great assembly
rooms and cabins Of the George Washing
ton. The leading architects for interiors
IN Germany have surpassed themselves in
the perfection attained in the work of this
new steamship.
Perfect in It's beauty the great reading
room represents to a nicely the Thoughtful
creation OF Prof. Bruno Paul. 1t Is located
on the upper promenade deck, which is
entirely given over to the public assem-
bly, rooms. except for few abins of the
first class.
The George Washington will be richly
embellished with mural paintings com
memorative of the life and times of the
first President Of the United States
Otto Bolhagen. the celebrated Bremen
fresco artist, made a special trip to the
United States, where he visited Philadel-
phia, Mount Vernon. Washington and
other places associated with WashinSton's
history for the purpose Of securing data
and local color.
Herr Bollhagen conferred with Presi
dent Roosevelt at the White House and
received from him valuable suggestions as
to what constituted the decisive events in
Washington's career.
The George Washington is constructed
first-class twin-screw passenger and
freight steamship. with keelson and fiat
keel, vertical stem. elliptical stern and
bilge keels. The vessel is equipped with
a watertight double bottom. extending
the entire length. divided into twenty-sx
compartments. In the various compart-
ments 1880 cubic feet of fresh, drink
ing and ballast water may be carried.
Every appliance known to modern ship
building for the safety of passengers Is
to be found upon the George Washington

Cultivate the Deer.
From the Columbus IOhio, Journal

From the Columbus tOhioi Journal.
Deer are getting plenty in many of the
eastern states. New Jersey is now re-
porting much of this noble game within
it's borders To encourage more Of it, the
state game commissioner has recon-
mended that law be passed providing
that deer with horns only be shot during
the season.
Ohio might do something to encourage
the deer industry by prohibiting the kill
ing of deer. with or without horns, for
say ten or fifteen years. That would be
sufficient to introduce the noble game
among us. The experience in the east
teaches that all the deer need is a good
chance.
What a dream such a regulation aWak-
ens-the beginning of happy era when
man could take down his rifle and go
forth and shoot handsome buck, to di-
vide among his neig for the selling
OF the meat would be prohibited by the
law. All the neiehbors would surely favor
such regulation
Our population is not too dense for the
play of such fancies. Out east. 1t is said,
the deer are SO kindly disposed that they
visit the back yards of the deniZens and
browse on the gooseberry bushes and
nibble at the turnip ceilings in the gar
base cans That is the way-be eXuber-
antly hospitablc to the beautiful deer SO
that they may frequent our dWindling
forests and restore the purity of ancient
JOYS.

CHAPTER xxxII. Back in Yorkshire.

I held back from my friend Cunliffe what had discovered concerning the three parchrnents. which he merely re- garded as historically valuable doc.i- ments hidden away by Garshore for some purpose known only to himself
 The letters of which we had taken possession were all unfmportant to us -all save one. It was written upon paper of the Hotel Excelsior at Cimiez, and signed "Elfrida-'
 There was no date. yet its tenor was that of regret--a letter. indeed, of farewell.
 To my companion it. of course, con- veyed nothing. To me. it was, how ever. full of significance-so full, in- deed that that same night left Kings Cross again for Nation. arriving there at early morning. and taking up tenn porary quarters at a quiet old-fash- toned hotel with big garden just up the hill outside the town. I had pass- ed it in the train many times and had often thought would like to see what the old place was like. At Il o'clock I called upon Mrs. Maynard, in pretense thatI was compelled to remain idle in Nation that day. She believed me, and as I sat in the long. old-fashioned drawing room of the charming house half mile from the. town began to chat about our mutual friends the Etapletons.
 Myra, she informed me, was very seen her and ordered Iher abroad for change. She and her father were to leave shortly for Switzerland. Then pressing invitation to remain for luncheon was followed by the entry of my divinity dressed in a well fit ting riding habit and neat little bow Ter hat. she having just come in from her ride.
 "On1y fancy finding you here, Mr. Ralstonr', she cried. her cheeks flush ing pleasant surprise. 'T've just come back from the Grange. Myra is a lit tie brighter. Of late she's been very poorly.
