Painting Genius Who Is Little Known but Who Ranks
with Bundy and Conner in Local History.-Mistak-
en- Notion of the Province of Art Criticism.

When there is nothing the average
dramatic critic wants to see more or
looks for harder than something that
can be commended.
But the dramatic art has been so
stultified. so thrown out of joint, so de-
based, so smirched by it's unworthy
DETECTION and exponents-that it is
not always possible to find il.
And the public is largely RESPONSE
BILE for the status of the theatre.
The stage reflects life in more ways
than one.
And it's character is determined by
that of its patrons.
All the managers want is a hint as
to what the theatre-goers in their
turn want.
And the latter gets it,
So that it is really the taste of the
day that is exemplified in the play
houses.
The curious phase of the dramatic
| critics activities is, however, that if
he does not roast" a production or
play he is at once accused of laying
down before the managers.

And, for consideration more or

There is nothing to be gained either
by the public or the opponents of an
art by indiscriminate lauding on the
one hand or unheeding announcement
on the other.
! Why is a thing good or bad?
That is the question to answer.
In as far as there is anything either
wholly good or bad.
In the writeup of an exhibition of pic

Nothing is unqualifiedly perfect or

which attends plays, concerts, the
opera and art exhibitions and which
has not been instructed as to the pc
culiar canons which govern the crea
ton and exploitation of any Of the arts
eXemplfied in the presentation. has
no accurate or informing commentary
what is gained by the presentation
Absolutely nothing.
Or at least very little in the enlight
ening of the public.
If, for example, a certain picture ir
any current exhibition in this city
should seem out of harmony with the
painting ideals and practice. and this
column should make what seemed al
intelligent comment to that effect
this should not be construed as G

Neither should an attempt at al

There is always a standard
There is always an anchor.

THE PRICKLY PEAR.
This III Natured Fruit Is Remarkably
Tenacious of Life.

MS w NdNhFGo 30 navy
Tenacious of Life.
The prickly pear is said to he so
tenacious OF life that a leaf or even
a small portion of leaf. If thrown on
the ground. strikes out roots within
a short time and becomes the parent
of a fast growing plant.
Mischievous though the African
prickly pear may he. II is not without
its good qualities. Its juicy fruit,
though rather deficient in favor, is
delightfully."- cool and refreshing in the
dry heat of summer, and kind of
treacle is made from il.
Great caution must be exercised in
peeling this curious fruit, the proper
way being to impale the fruit on a
fork or stick while one cuts il open
and removes the skin. The individ
ual who undertakes to pluck this
treacherous fruit with unguarded fin
gers meets with an experience he does
not soon forget. Concentrated essence
of singing nettle seems all at once
to assail hands. lips and tongue, and
the skin. wherever 1t comes in con
tact with the i'll natured fruit is Gov
cred with n group of minute bristly
hairs, apparently growing from it and
venomous and irritating TO the last de
gree.
In dry weather these spiteful little
stings do not even wait for the newly
arrived victim. but fly about. light as
thistledown. ready to settle on any
one who has not learned by experience
to give the prickly pear bush a wide
berth.

WANDERLUST Of
BOYS COOLS OFF
World Not What He Thought
1t Was, Says One,
WoefulIy.

Chief William H. O'Neill of the
East Orange police department is de-
tanning two youths whose stories of
wanderlust he is investigating. The
lads gave their names and addresses
as Russell Cyphers, nineteen, of 1903
Farr street. Scranton. Pa, and
Thomas McCallum, Jr.. eighteen, S22
Lancaster avenue, Bryn Mawr, and
Chief O'Neill has sent kilograms to
the addresses and awaits a reply
fro the fathers of the wanderers.
The boys say they are cousins, and
that they met in Trenton by accident
and were conveyed to New York by
| automobile when McCallum. who is a
corporal in the Boy Scouts, at Bryn
Mawr, and wears the uniform, gave
salute to an autoist, who gave the
lads a lift as he was interested in
the scout movement.
McCallum explained he had left
home to locate his brother Robert,
p. who went to New Jersey or
Ohio" to get position several
months ago, but has not been heard
from since.
oh" he walled. this morning, as
tears coursed down his scout uni
form, II never saw the world before
but l know 1t now, I'll never, never
leave my home again."
When policeman Beecher Clark
found them in the easterly section
of the city they told him they were
seeking an aunt who resided at SO
Sterling street, East Orange. But
the name they gave. Miss Cyphers.
was not known there. Later Cyphers
admitted he had escaped in June
from the Eastern Pennsylvania State
Institution at Spring City, near
Philadelphia because he did not like
the food. He said he was sent there
because he frequently absented HIM
self from home. The institution
where he was placed is for feeble
minded, but the youth gave no in

CRIPPLE RETURNS TO HIS
CRUTCHES TO AID PARENTS

With a sad smile on his little face,
12-year-o Harry Boutillette, of 100
South Seventh street, hobbled into
the courtroom of the Fourth Pre-
cinct today, and looked inquiringly
about him. Even the humping of
his tiny crutches, for Harry was par
alyzed in his left leg, at first failed
to attract the attention of Acting
Judge Yuill, who was busy signing
commitments for various offenders
of the law A discreet cough coming
from somewhere below the level of
the judges bench caused the judge
to get up from his writing.
"Well, my little man." said the
Judge, as he saw the little fellow
leaning YEARLY against the bench,
what can | do for your"
"Please mister, | want my 81 back.
Ny mother and father need that
money for food. Can't you get it
for me?"
BY this time the judge was all
attention. Tell me about the 81,
son, and I'll see if I can get it for
you"
"Well you see it was this way. mis-
ter. About two months ago | thought
that / could get around better if l
had a bicycle. Clutches make me
tired when I walk lot. My mother
and father said they would try to
get me a bike. My mother went to

enue and paid him a dollar. In a

week she paid him another dollar.
That made two. Are you listening
carefully, mister?" After being reas-
to every word the youngster con-
tinued.
We'll. right after my mother had
paid the man 81, my father got an
electric shock. He was working in
Orange when he got it. He was up
on n pole and accidentally touched a
big wire and was burned bad on the
hands. | think they had to take him
down from the pole with a pulley. He
was in the hospital for some time and
he isn't working yet. Well, / could
see then that my mother needed all
the money she could get to buy food
and medicine for my father when he
came home, so | told her to never
mind the wheel At first she wouldn't
listen, but, gee, mister, | don't want
to feel happy when my poor parents
are suffering. l just came here to see
you and get the 81 from the man. I
don't want the wheel, if my father
needs the money; crutches Is good
enough for me-
Acting Judge Yuill sent Patrolman
Harenburg with the boy to see the BIZ
cycle dealer. The dealer told the lad
that he would give him the money he
paid next Monday. Acting Judge
Yuill has requested the lad to pay him
visit next Monday afternoon and
tell him whether or not he has re-
ceived the so.
