p == A BAD PRACTICE: i.
{. Testimony in the house committee
related largely to the practice in
which the Van Dusen- Harrington
company is alleged occasionally to
engage in Of selling grain consigned
to it to its subsidiary companies,
thus getting two commissions. Some
times this is done with the consent
Of the consignors, and sometimes
without according to the testimony.
The president Of the chamber Of
commerce who was on tho stand
thought the practice Objectionable
unless the consignors Of grain con-
scented to it. Another matter about
which talk was revived was the Min
neapols switching charges. These
BIT appears are exacted from the far
mers by commission men whether the
switching is done or not. The mat
ter will be the subject Of further in
vestigation this week. s.....s:

Finds Queer Museum.

l have always battered myself that ]
knew the ms and outs OF every museum
In Paris but l have just discovered that
there is at least one museum here which,
until the day before yesterday, / had
never heard OF. as has probably nobody
outside OF the world Of medical special
lists.
1t is the skin museum, which has been
built up by an old man named Baretta.
There is considerable anxiety among doc
tors because he does not wish to let
anyone into his secret, which, II II dis
appears with him, will, the specialists be-
lieve. be disaster to science.
The Baretta museum Is attached to
the ST Louis hospital and II contains
more than 5000 holdings OF the differ
ent affections OF the skin. 1t Is stated
that applica tons are received at the hos
pital from every country In the world for
reproductions OF ana tomical documents
used In the studies OF these maladies. NJ
Baretta Is the inventor OF the process
which enables him TO obtain perfect re-
productions. He Is not doctor, but a
modeer, and works In an attic above his
museum. He is so years Of age, and In
1850 was manufa cturar OF artificial fruit
In the Passage Jouffroy. One day q doc
tor OF the st. Louis hospital, struck by
the perfection Of this fruit, asked the
artist to execute anatomical pieces for
tho hospital. But the material housed for
his fruit did not suffice. He had to find
something else. He found II, and this
discovery Is his secret which he Is not
anxious to leave to anyone else

You Will understand this better when
1 tell you that It is an open secret In the
studio world In Paris that Auguste Rodin
did not make half the works ascribed to
him and on which his signature appears.
Some of his most famous works are said
to have been created by a certain M,
Desbeux. whom artists here consider. a
far greater sculptor than Rodln. but who
cares absolutely nothing for fame,
NJ. DesbieuX, one Of the most original
Of Partisan artists and one of the most
difficult men to approach. Is d flrm be-
llever In art for arts sake. He has
carved some OF the most wonderful sculp-
lures In the world. but, considering the
sale Of O work OF art TO the ordinary. iG-
norant public desecra tion. he still has
most OF them In his studio where he re-
ceves only small number of intimate
friends. He is far from being wealthy
and as he has to exist he has from time
to time turned over certain OF his works
to Rodin, who has paid him for them
and who has afterward passed them off
as works Of his own; I know that II is
a serious charge that 7 am making here
and am fully prepared not to be be-
iieved. but there are scores of artists
here who will bear me out. as would un-
