MYSTERY IN MANS INJURY
Patient in Jefferson Unable TO Tell

Edward NJ. Laurey, of IL Farragnt

who discharged him. At that time the
police officials say he was h"aItnE'

GOSSIP OF
THE STREET

IF the new issues OF securities which
have been announced for sale last
week may be accepted as a proper cri Z.
t"rion from which to judge the bond
market outlook. the indications nre that
more favorable conditions are expected
to develop in the trade than have re.
Gently existed. Obviously, bankers feel
coufident as TO the outlook or otherwise
they would not attempt to bring OUT
such large issues as S25 ,OOO. .OOO OF
Standard oil Co. of California, and
$50 600 900 Of Standard Oil Co. OF
New York bonds at this time.
Taken as whoie. the bond market
last week was ono which created some
apprehension in many circles, although
the reactions which took place tor the
most part were only Of moderate pro
portions. 1t was stated. however. that
such buying as took place represented
what might be termed as of substan' :
tial character, indicating that these. Sc
curities are gradually passing from
weaker to strong hands. Possibly
study Of this phase Of the situation may
have been instrumental in bringing
about the moderate feeling Of confidence
which is known to obtain on the part
of some OF the leading bankers and IN
vestmeut houses of the street.
Shading Copper Prices
Another slump has developed in the
copper market. but the lack OF demand
is due principally to the fact that some
of the smaller dealers have again been
shading prices. and offers OF copper
for the carly part Of next year have
been made by some OF these dealers as
low as thirteen and ope-haf cents per
pound.
The leading producing and selling in.
terpsta are still quoting fourteen cents
per pound for December deliveries, and
fourteen and one fourth cents per pound
for first quarter. 1921. deliveries. and
these figures are quoted on all In :
Quiries, even those coming from con
sumers who have not been regular Gus
toners Of the big sellers.
Sentiment in the market is consider
ably unsettled by new developments.
and although 1t is insisted that the big
interests will not change their prices,
il is also admitted that consumers have
withdrawn their inquiries at least TEN :
porarily, thus putting the market back
to where Il was about two weeks ago.
The users Of the metal cannot be con :
demned for keeping out OF the marke'
in view Of what has taken place. II Is
recalled that when price shading hrs'
started some months ago the consumers
who were about to place contracts for
their future requirements saved as much
as several cents per pound by waiting
for lower figures.
However, the leading authorities nov
state that they cannot cut prices much
further Mt present due to the fact thai
costs oS producing the metal are still
high and the mining companies are SUI

FURBUSH FOR GIFTS TO SICK
Health Director Wants Christmas
Flowers Sent 70 Hospitals

Do not forget the poor when making
your selection Of Christmas gifts.
That is the advice Of DR.. &. Lincoln
Furbush. director Of III" Department of
Public Health. in bulletin covering
'health hints for Christmas" He said
"Thc most appropriat" gifts for hos
pitals and charitable institutions are
flowers. greens and other Seasonahlc
decorations. These impart an mir of
freshness and cheerfulncsS to the hos
pital wards and are so pleasing to the
patients as to give them n feeling Of
we'll being. Fruit is also an acceptable
donation for the sick, but candies and
cakes are not often permitted. Books
and games are always welcomed by
convalescpnts and chronic invalids. It
should not be forgotten that a per.
sonal vxiSit is often more appreciated
than gift, and If the latter is decided
upon, il is best to ask the patients
doctor or nurse what is suitable" "

TALENT Of ARTIST

Mrs. Calhoun Defending Suit
Over Oil Paintings Questions
Ury's Ability.

He said that II the portrait was not
entirely satisfactory 10 her she would
not be requested to accept the same,
declares Mrs. Daisy Cd Breaux CAL
houn, formerly Mrs. Barker Gum
mere, of 1929 New Hampshire avenue
northwest. in answer to the suit OF
Adolfo Muller-Ury for $4,000 for two
oil paintings OF herself and daughter.
Miss Marguerite Simmons.
Disputes His GIsin.
Mrs. Calhoun. represented by At
torney Frank j. Hogan, declares that
the claim OF the artist that he mad
painted distinguished persons In this
country and Europe was made mere
ly for purposes OF publicity and self
advertising"
She categorically denies that she at
any time requested the plaintin TO
paint either her picture or that OF her
daughter. Mrs. Calhoun says she met
him casionally at a social anair at
the home of a friend" and II was
there that he requested" to be per-
mitted to paint her portrait. she IN
formed the artist, she says, that "she
had not heretofore succeeded In hav-
ing painted a satisfactory portrait.
1t was then that the artist told her
that II the picture did not turn out
take II, and no pay. In fact Mrs.
Calhoun declares the question OF pay
ing. or the price, was> never men
toned.
Questions Methods-
Referring to portraits painted OF
her and of her daughter at White Sui
phur Springs in the summer OF 1915,
which Mrs: Calhoun says are "un-
recognizable" as representing her
self and Miss Simmons. Mrs. Calhoun
alleges that they sat for him for por-
traits "a few times" but that at the
beginning of these sittings Mr.. Null
Ier-Ury asked them to sit for photo
graphs.
Now. Mrs. CALHOUN declares in her
answer that this performance" (of
taking photography is not followed
by first-class artists. She said the
artist transferred the photographs to
the canvas. Defendant says that this
aroused her suspicion as to his ear
tistic ability and she AYERS that the
painter at these sittings repeatedly
told her that she was to be the sole
Judge as to whether or not the por-
traits were satisfactory"
The defendant says that her
friends who have seen the pictures
declare that they do not represent
either her or her daughter; that they
are not recognizable. She denies that
he ever agreed to allow her dis
count OF 81, 900 on her daughters por-
trait on account OF the artist through
her having met Mrs. Flagler, then
Mrs. Wise and now Mrs. Lewis.
