The Usefulness of Artists
By August ROdin, Famous French Sculptor.

N MODERN society the artists,
{ mean the true artists. are about the
- only people who take real pleasure
in their work. What most men lack
nowadays is love of their chosen pro-
fession. They fulfill their duties only
reluctantly, and shirk them whenever
they see an opportunity to do so con-
veniently. This is the rule from the
top TO the bottom Of the social ladder
our politicians see in their work only
the advantages they derive from it and
seem to know nothing at ali about the
satisfaction felt by the statesmen of
old, when they had handled the affairs
of their country skilfu4ly-
Our manufacturers, instead of uphold
ing the honor of their brands, are only
endeavoring to make as much money
as possible by adulterating their pro-
ducts and the workers are incensed
with hatred against employers with or
without reason, hatred which also ex>
tends to their work. Nearly everybody
today seems to consider work a horrible
necessity, a cursed burden. while they
really ought to lpok upon it as life's
greatest blessingN
One must not think, however, that
this has always been so. Most Of the
things left us from former days-furni-
ture, utensils and woven material
show 4 great conscientieusness on the
part Of those who made them.
Doing Work Well.
Man loves just as much to do his
work well as TO do it badly, and 1 am
inclined to believe he loves the former
better as II conforms more to his ma
Ture but hears so many advices, some
good and some bad very often he lends
ear more easily to the bad.
And still how much happier would not
man feel If work, instead of being the
curse of his existence, was the object
of

That this marvellous transformation
be made possible, it would only be nee
esary for people to follow the example
of the artists, or, better STILL become
artists themselves, for the word artist,
in its broadest sense, means 70 M any
man who takes pleasure in his Work.

ception to a statement made by John
Barrett, director of the International
Bureau of American Republics, that
he long) was opposed to the ap-
pointment of Commodore George
Dewey to command the feet which
captured Manila. The statement is
contained in one Of Mr.. Barrett's pub
locations. In a communication to the
press today the former secretary
says:
cancy in the command of the Asiatic
squadron. The turn Of Dewey and
another commodore for sea service
had come and the choice was between
them. l selected Dewey, giving the
other the European squadron, having
satisfied myself by inquiry among
naval experts and without consider
alton of any outside influences that
each was better fitted than the other
for the post assigned. President Nc
Kinley never suggested Dewey's name
to me, nor was 1t mentioned by him

Plan to Avoid Being
Arrested

Chicago, Nov. 29.-Two bandits who
held up Charles Moe, a contractor
carpenter, took no chances of having
a policeman descend upon them while
they went through their victims
pockets. Instead they seized him,
quickly bundled him up in ropes and
a quantity of burlap,. threw him into
a furniture delivery wagon and haued
him out Of the city on to the prairie
to rob him. When re recovered con-
sciousness today he was unable to
unfasten his hands or gain his feet,
and lay in gutter beside country
road six hours before he was found
by farmers. He then learned he had
been carried to the town Of Cicero,
outside the city limits. He had been
robbed of a gold watch and $1,000.
Today he identified two young men
arrested by the police as his assail-
ants. They are Arthur Pringle, 20
years old, and Albert Littlefeld. %
years old. Both deny the accusations.
