 ful Art Student.

An art student was copying one of Abbott s. Thayer's paintings at the Now York Metropolitan Museum of Art one day when plainly dressed man who looked as if he might be a mechanic approached and, posting himself at the young mans elbow, watched him as he labored over his subject
 You've got the angie of the mouth wrong. and the left eye is too oblique," remarked the man decidedly.
 The student blinked angrily and the hand that wilded the brush trembled slightly, but he took no notice of the unsolicited criticism.
 There is loo much yellow in your flesh tint" continued the man.
 Still no reply from the student, who ostentatiously' slapped on more yellow in the high light on the nose.
 Did you hear what I said?" ques. toned the man.
 Yes, l heard. responded the stu. dent wraihfully, turning and glarins at his modest looking critic. What do you know about it, anyway"
 T ought to know something about it., was the smiling response. "1t was l who painted the picture

ON KUEHNLE JOB
Property-O Owner Plan to Force
Return of Money by City
Comptroller.

ATLANTIC CITY, Sept. 10.-David
r. Barrett, city comptroller, acting
upon the advice of City Solicitor
Wootton. has paid the West Jersey
and Seashore railroad the 1921 600 for
the extras on this city's woed stave
water main, whereas under the con-
tract there were to be no extras.
This was the contract which Louis
Kuehnle juggled in such a way as
to turn the profits into his own
pocket.
When the wood stave main began,
to sink in the meadows for the lack
of a secure foundation, additional
expense was entailed upon the con-
tractor. To remedy this a portion
of the expense was saddled on the
Pennsylvania railroad, the arrange
ment being to pay the railroad later
N the guise of extras" But the
payment was held up by taxpayers
and citizens.
The railroad was after the banks
when Comptroller Barrett came to
their relief and passed over the 1922
900, this while the case to adjudi-
cate the matter Of the extras Is still
pending.
Comptroller Barrett says that the
1922, 900 was the part that had been
agreed to-" Property-owners will
now proceed to force Mr.. Barrett to
pay back the $22, 900 into the city
treasury, or will u his bondsmen.

MARKET HEAVY IN
CLOSING HOUR
Prices Go Down Below Ruling
Point as Money Rate
Climbs.

NEW YORK, Sept. 10.-Aside from
one point gains in Harvester and
Woolworth, price changes in the ear
ly dealings on the Stock Exchange
today were unimportant. Southern
Pacific and some of the grangers ana
trunk lines recorded fractional adj
Vances, presumably as a result of
yesterdays government crop report.
II a. m.-Large fractional gains
were scored by the leading stocks
during the first hour. High-priced
industrials moved in contrary cur
rents. Sears-Roebuck falling three
points, while Liggett & Myers gained
nearly as much.
Noon-Yesterday's brilliant crop re-
port and the apparent improvement
in the Mexican situation impaired a
mildly stimulating effect to the stock
market today, although trading was
again very light and almost wholly
professional.
l p. m.-Profits we're taken in Steel
on the publication of the favorable
tonnage figures and the price sank I'M
der yesterdays close. The general
tone also became heavy with effective
pressure against the Coppers.
2 p. m~.-Scarcely any movement oc-
Cured in the late operations, manipu-
lation of the specialties ever being
suspended for the time being.
8 d. m.-The market closed heavily.
Prices went down as money rates
climbed, by some Issues ruling a
point below their best prices, includ-
ing Union Pacific and Amalgamated.
